A WANDERING DAUGHTER
Sought for Through the Probate
 Court.

The probate court is the post office of the sorrowful and the morbidly
 curious. A letter was received there yesterday from A. R. Sheriff of Oak land. Cal, inquiring if a marriage li- cerse had been issued out of the court since December Of last year to Shelley Parker and Ethel Sheriff. Any in- formation on the subject would be lap preciated by the sorrowing parents Of the young woman. The records of the office do not show that such a license was issued. but something has been learned within the last week of the pair. perhaps before the letter of in- quiry was written. Early in the week the mother of the girl succeeded in b. eating her at Bisbee. She visited q justice of the peace there and told him of her search. She had reason to be- lieve that her daughter was not ming ling with the most exclusive society oi the camp. Constable Doyle went out to see about it and shortly returned with the young woman. whom he had found living on the "hog ranch q name given in Arizona to that part 0f the town in which the morally leprous are compelled 10 reside.
 The girl was properly repentant, and it was the understanding at Bisbee tha; she was going home with her mother. Her father is a minister of the gospel. She had not been married to Parker. but was living with him and support; ing him. The father at the time of the writing of the letter had probably not heard of the result of his wifes search for their erring daughter.
 Another letter equally plaintive was received by the probate judge yester- day. It comes from Bisbee, where something is doing every day. It is as follows: Your honor-Will you be so kind and obliging as to send Fl deputy to hunt up my wife and ask her if she intends to come and live here with me. l have a good job here and make good money. If not, I wish to have the mar riage contract annulled. I have written several letters to her. but as yet have received no answer" The name of tl!c writer is z. C. Stcckham. He says his wife's name is Gnu Zazueta de Stock ham. The deputy to hunt her up and ascertain her intentions in respect of Mir Stockham had not been appointed at the hour of going to press and the court was not sure that any definite action would be taken upon the request until after the election.

We Point With Pride

To our pesthOuse as the only one in the United States that is situated In a city. We offer better facilities to all small
 poX patients than any city in the union.
 We do not wish any smallpox patients
 to feel that We shun their constant so- Cety, for we prove otherwise. Any patients thinking the present location too far out should report it at once, as We can probably make arrangements to use the city hall. as it's little more centrally located. During the coming winter we will try and further their welcome and interest by adding amuSe- ments, etc. Match games of ping pong might be arranged for between crack teams from the city and the patients. Private boxes should be provided at the theatre for all smallpox patients. It should be arranged so that the pa tients could attend the windows at th= post office, also be represented at all hotels. as it would have such a charm ing effect on our city visitors during the winter and add greatly to the popular ity of the valley as a health resort.
 We cannot imagine anything more re- freshing and invigOrating than to com pei all winter visitors to pay weekly visits to the pesthOuSe and convince them that we can nave SIQdupON neIS and under ordinary circumstances and with careful nursing can give a con- tinuous smallpox performance for seven or eight months in the year. We should have our schools visit our pest house regularly and have the teachers explain the difference between a bear and a pox pit" because if We do not take all these precautions some of the residents here as we'll as the visitors may not catch this disease as easy as the proper authorities dodge the issue in moving the pesthOuse. Some months ago about 500 of the taxpayers and property owners signed a petition to have the smallpox depot" moved out of the city limits, but the justly in dignant council properly consigned this petition to the waste basket, as they knew what the people should have. So the yellow flag smallpox warehouse is still in our midst, calmly waiting for the regular winter smallpox which never fails to arrive on time.

A BOY DROWNED.

Shortly after o'clock Friday after noon, little Frank, the son of Joe At wood freight clerk at the depot, was drowned in an old abandoned well about 100 yards north of the station. He, with his brother and another little boy, was playing around the mouth of the we'll when he presumably slipped and fell head foremost about ten feet to the water. The cries of the brother attracted attention and he ran home. calling to his mother that Frank is ne!'-Williams News.

A MIXED STATE OF MIND.

The need Of lead pencil, just any kind of a an old worn-out one, caused a lady no end of embarrassment on an early car from Cambridge the other morning. She sat running over her shopping list, when suddenly she thought of something to add to it. She looked in her pocketbook. and ran sacked all it's divisions, card case and all. but no pencil did she find. Mod estly she hesitated about asking her neighbcrs, but with a quick resolve she finally leaned toward a gentleman seated by her, and holding up her list. said loud enough for those in adjacent seats to hear:

 My necktie, madam?' he replied, with arcbed eyebrows.
