Consumption

The only kind Of consump
ton to fear is neglected
consumption"
People are learning that con-
sumption is a durable disease.
1t is neglected consumption
that is so often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion of
consumption get a bottle OF
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands OF
cases, turned the balance in
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does
not exist where SCOTS Emul-
sion is.
Prompt use of SCOTS Emul-
sion checks the disease while it
can be checked.

MURDER AND SUICIDE
The Tragic Ending of a Young Mans
 Eventful Career.

Word has come that Henry Ellers killed his wife and then committed suicide at Imperial, in Southern Cali fornia. Ellers will be remembered IS the wayward son of estimable parents who lived in this valley for years. the young man having served a two-years' term in the penitentiary at Yuma for burglary. He was arrested in June 1898, and sentenced in November of the same year. Of the tragic incident that ended his career the last issue of the Imperial Press says:
 Yesterday morning about II o'clock word came to town that Henry Ellers had shot and killed his wife and then committed suicide.

CAPTAIN MAHONEY's REWARD.
A High Cuban Official Whom Many
 Phoenicians Remember.

The citizens of Phoenix will Temem Der that early in 1898 two young men, officers of the Cuban army, arrived in Phoenix in the course of a tour of tn" west, exciting sympathy and raising money for Cuba. One of them was Captain F. r. MahOney and the other @ young lieutenant. both of whom had been engaged in flibustering in Cuba. Both had aftcrWard been regularly en- rolled in the Cuban army and had been allowed to come home on a leave of absence, which they put in by travel ing about the country in the interest of the struggling Cubans. They were warmly received here and there wero contributions of considerable sums Of money, for the emissaries were vouched for by Bucky O'Neill, who accompanied them to this place and took part in a public meeting held at the courthouse. If they had come here a month later they would have had a still warmer reception, for by that time the Maine was blown up and everybody wanted to go to war with Spain.
 Captain Mahoney has not been with out his reward. The Havana Post gives the following account of his ap- lSAlAIi'iNliN bC ti HIS ll 'iiltt anu says OI him:
 The secretary of finance yesterday appointed F.. P. Mahoney to the posi- tion of assistant chief inspector of inn migration for the post Of Havana MT Mahoney was recommended by Cubl's most conspicuous generals and states men.
 Captain Mahoney entered the rcvo- iution in it's infancy and his services in the field won for him the grade of captain. Tn 1897, after being wounded. he left the island for his home in Mon tana on leave of absence. After a few weeks rest he toured the states of Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, California and Arizona. This tour pro duced several thousand dollars. am munition and medicines for the cause of Cuba g independence. Tn this work he was assisted by the most prominent men in each state. Tn Arizona he was heartily received and taken through the state by the famous Bucky O'Neiu Of Rough Rider fame, who was later one of the first to fall at the taking of San Juan.
 During his tour in the northwest MT. Mahoney made many friends who will

MISS CALANTHE
The Only Female Pythian Is Visiting
 in Phoenix.

The only female Pythian in existence is in the city. She arrived yesterday morning and is stopping at the resi- dence of Chancellor Commander H. w. Taafe on West Jefferson street She had come to make her stay with Grand Chancellor AiJken of the territorial lodge, but as he was out of the city she became the guest of the ranking officer of the local lodge, who is MT. -Taafe. Her name is Miss Calanthe, and her home when she is there, though that has not been for two years, is at Kennebunkport, in the state of Maine.
 Miss Calanthe is a goat and a very knowing one. She travels in a special car and has in the car with her what was once a handsome alligator leather travelling bag. but it shows signs of it's journeyings in the company of goat. for one end of it has been eaten away Miss Calanthe s wardrobe consists of three blankets, one a fine wool wrap, which was all she had when she left home. Admiring lodges which she has visited since have contributed other and more showy wraps. Two of them are of silk and have embroidered upon them the mystic letters, IF. C. B" which only the goat and the brethren of the order understand. There is also brush and a small currycomb; a couple of silver tips to be worn on the horns on special occasions. There is collar for everyday wear and another official circlet for the neck to be worn at the sessions of the supreme and grand lodges. There are several shields, some Of silver and some of zinc and copper, on which are engraved the Jurisdictions which she has visited
 She left Kennebunkport in May of 1901. She was long time getting out Of the New England and eastern states, as Is shown by the engravings on the metal shields. She was sent around from lodge to lodge in the same state, though 1t was not designed that she should be detained except at grand lodges or that she should become the guest of other than grand lodge officers. The principal object Of her journey though was to visit the supreme lodges, and if she could do that nobody cared how the intervening time might De put in. She arrived at San Fran cisco in time for the supreme lodge which was held there last August. She has no other urgent engagement now until 1904, when she must be in Louis vile, Ky
 When Miss Calanthe left home she was pure white. Now she is quite gray ana streak of black is becoming more and more clearly outlined along hen back. When her visit here is concIu.ed she will be consigned to the grand chancellor of New Mexico. But she will probably be first sent around to the principal lodges of the territory and VIII De seen in many street parades.
 Miss Calanthe has created furore wherever she has been. The pictorial newspapers have shown her portrait to thelr readers and they have been iiiied with descriptions of her and her wanderings.
 II the pilgrimage of Miss Calanthe serves no other purpose it will at leasr dlspel the impression which has e-ro,,-1 m recent years that the lodge room goat was only myth.

The farcical musical comedy. "Pick- ings From Puck" which will appear next Saturday, November 1, at the Doris theatre, is bound to catch the public taste to a nicety. In the chorus are a lot of dainty femininity-such sweet simplicity. No one can deny that this production Is a splendid one in the matter of scenic equipment as well as stage handling. All this is merely in- troductory to saying that "Pickings From Puck" comes to town with rib bons flying. The musical numbers are breezy and cheery and all that can be desired in a musical comedy, and the ping-pong dance. which is one of the many features, will no doubt be the talk of the town.
 MT. Willard Simms, the star. is an unctuous type of comedian who can make the transition from hunnor to the ridiculous. He is clean-cut type of the faceur-nimble of feet, tripping of tongue and possessed of a technical knowledge of the niceties of farce. A broad smile diffuses all countenancee when NIT. Simms appears. One of the delightful surprises is Miss Katharine Linyard, who reminds one of Lillian Russell. Her beauty and talents are cuddlesome, sweet and all that is rare.
