MUSIC AND MUSICIANS"

Under the caption of Music and Mu. sicians" the last Saturdays, March 9 Los Angeles Times says: "The Troop Mandolin and Guitar club gave its long promised concert at Blanchard hall last evening. It was we'll attend- ed and passed off most successfully Valentine Apt. the soloist of the even. ing, made a tremendous hit. as Abt must surely do whenever and wherever he plays. His manipulation of the mandolin is simply wonderful. Ho makes it sound like violin in the pianissmo passages; in the forte, liko the loud echo of a string band. His technique is marvellous. The Faust Fantasia" was revelation in mando> lin music and more than deserved the triple encore it received"

THE PROBATE COURT
Tuesday Was Judge Langston's Busy
 Day.

The probate court enjoyed good run of business yesterday though there was nothing of startling nature.
 In the estate O. Louise A. Christy Il hearing was given the final account of the administrator and the petition of distribution, the order for distribution being made.
 In the estate of w. T. Mitchell hear ing was given the petition for the sale of real estate, proof was made that due and legal notice of hearing was given, and order of confirmation was granted.
 A hearing was given the petition for the appointment of an administrator in the estate of Mercedes Espinosa. Proof of legal notice was made: Frank Wieger and William Duffield were sworn, and Frank Wieger was appoint cd administrator on his giving bond in the sum of $250.
 The sureties on the bond of Camlin Evans, guardian of Bertie C. Evans. a minor, petitloned for their discharge and a citation was issued. Mir. Evans now lives in Yuma county and the bondsmen. not knowing his present cir cumstances. desire to be released. Mir. Evans filed an inventory of the prop erty of the estate.
 Two marriage licenses were issued. One was to F. Farland Johnson of Mesa, aged %. and Caddie NJ. Jones of Lehi aged 20. The other license was to Frank GrOsskopp aged S1, and Mrs. Katherine F.. Whitmer, aged 30. both of Lehi
 Three complaints of insanity were disposed of. one defendant being com mitted and the other two being dis charged. Joseph Evans was brought down from Wickenburg the night be- fore. The testimony of the defendant, which was corroborated by the lnvesti- gation of the arresting officer and others, was to the effect that Evans had accumulated wild. wierd and picturesque jag on Wickenburg whisky and had lain down by the water tank to sleep. But he was too drunk to sleep. and in his fancy he saw a party of girls who were trying to do him injury. and he did his best to pro- tect himself against them. Then, too, he saw little birds in the trees that looked like vultures to him and what time he was not engaged in fighting the girls he was throwing rocks at the savage blackbirds and meadow larks that were about to eat him up. Then he secured a coupllng-pin and going to Mrs Mowry's boarding house he told her he was going to protect him. self against these dangerous girls. If he had to kill them.
 By the time he reached Phoenix he was sober and as clear as a bell. He thanked the officers for their trouble, as he said he wanted to come to Phoe- nix any way. and had saved his car fare. He was discharged.
 The case of Richard Lazarus was gone over. Ben Steffer. HI Hooker and Dr. Purman testifying and pr. Dame- ron examining. He was committed to the asylum Later he was given a con 'fidential talk by the judge In which he was told that there was no intention of prosecuting him. but he seemed to be off on the subject of whistling, and as long as he was at large no one was safe in his presence. He seems to be perfectly sane in respect to everything else, but has the distressing mania that he wants to kill people that whistle. A course of treatment at the asylum may make him all right again.

 DO NOT UNDERSTAND. In Tues day mornings issue mention was made of house bill No. ITO and house bill No III, for the establishing and mainte- nance of a bureau of archaeology and cthnology. Several of the members who have criticised the bills do not seem to understand fully their pur- pose. The fact Is that nearly every state and territory except Arizona has taken steps to protect whatever may be found therein of historical or archaeological value. The purpose of these bills is not to stand in the way Of legitimate exploration or uncovering of ruins or natural curiosities, but to pro- tect the same by laws that will pre- vent relic hunters. tourists and non- residents from coming into the terri. tory and digging up and carrying away everything of interest that may be found here. Those who arc urging the bill are more anylous than any one else to have these things explored, but they desire to see it done under restrictions that will insure some benefits to the territory and the people in it rather than the filling of eastern curio cab inets and eastern pocketbooks to the impoverishment of Arizona.

MURPHY AND his MOVEMENT.

A manly public will sympathize with
the venerable Francis Murphy in the
trouble which Franklin Austin has
brought upon an Organization bearing
his name. Mr., Murphy came to Ha<
wall to rescue men from strong drink
and when he went away on his Aus
tralian trip he left a fine organization
of workers with the lately reclaimed
Austin at its head How Austin has
mismanaged things, apparently for his
own financial benefit. are matters of
common notoriety. The Murphy Asso-
citation now finds itself with muddled
accounts. with its president under sus-
picion and with it's work stopped while
Austin, figuring like mad, is trying to
balance his accounts and avoid making
items about hack hire, dollar dinners
at the Grill, salaries and grocery sup
plies. Although not dollar, dirty or
clean, has crossed the palm of Mr.. Muir
ply he feels deep sense of responsible
ity for acts done in the name of Muir
ply Association even when he was
thousands of miles away. He wants to
straighten things out and the good peo-
pie Of this city should rally to his aid
Mr.. Murphy is not to be blamed in
that Austin deceived him. The press
of this town, particularly the Adver-
t1ser, has been disposed until lately to
accept Mr.. Austin at face value and
commend him to Mr.. Murphy as
faithful lieutenant. But 1t was a case
OF misplaced confidence. Austin seems
to have been merely exploiting the name
or Murphy with callous disregard of his
Obligations and of the consequences.
Still the Murphy movement has
plenty of vitality and can be made
tremendous power for good in these ISL
ands. Let the old crusader, Francis
murphy himself, mount his horse and
iead on. Ii he does this there will be
plenty OF good men to follow and assist
him.

SIMPSONS CASE.

It is not surprising to learn that Rear
Admiral Sampson Is breaking down.
The long, irksome months of the search
for Cervera and the blockade of the
port In which he took refuge tried the
nerves of every man on the American
feet and sooner or later caused the
officer Blockade duty is an ordeal
which few men escape with sound
nervous system Eternal J. vigilance,
which Is the price of success on the
blockade. tries the human fiber more
than battles do. In the commanding
officers case responsibility Is added to
anxiety and both increase as time dfsags
ON. Then. IL disappointment comes at
last, 1t takes q, unansof Iignum vitae to
bear up. =
Since the early part Of 1898, Sampson
has been a plaything Of fate. His sud
den promotion from a captaincy to the
command. with flag rank, of the most
powerful American fleet and the one
presumed to have the hardest. service
ahead of it, brought upon him the jeal-
Gus displeasure of the navy. Then
came a season of hope deferred in the
midst OF which Commodore Dewey won
greater fame in the East than SaInp
son could hope to win in the West and
became the naval hero of the people.
Finally when SIMPSONS chance came
he was absent and others fought the
battle, the glory of which, despite his
claim, was denied him by his country
men and so broadly questioned by Con-
gress that he and his men got none of
the official 1aurels and prizes his feet
had earned. Since then Sampson has
been the target of public ridicule and
has earned, besides, through his un-
fortunate letter about the promotion of
the highest warrant officers. the name
of being snob. Conscious of having
done his duty as 1t came to him, Adj
miral Sampson felt bitterly the in
gratitude Of republics and now, face to
face with a quarrel in court with Ad-
nliral Schley his mind totters on the
brink of ruin One cannot wonder at
dt 80 much as at the perversity of fate.

DEFECTS OF POSTAL SYSTEM.

The disadvantages of free delivery
are still matters of public comment.
On Saturday evening the Oceanic S.
S. Mariposa brought mail which,
under the old postal system. would
have been available that night or the
next morning. The part which went
into the lock-boxes was so available
But the letters and papers listed for
house delivery and some that were not
were held until Monday forenoon, when
the carriers wandered around town
trying to find the owners. If a vessel
had left here Sunday evening or Mon
day morning, no answers to- the house
delivery letters could have been sent
by it.
This bears out precisely what the Ad-
vertiser said some time ago, namely
that free delivery is hindrance rather
than help to the distribution of mail
and that the Government could serve
the public better through lock- boxes
and at the same time make handsome
profit.
We may add for the information of
the public that no one is obliged to
accept house delivery. If there are not
lock-boxes enough at the office the gen.
eral delivery window is at the service
of any citizen.
