MIGHT HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS

What might have been a disastrous
fire was discovered in the Canon block
last night at about quarter of elev-
en-. Orson Adams. Jr.. one of the
owners of the building had returned
to the block to consult G. F. Caswell

ON some business matters While he
was passing through the hall he SMELL
ed smoke An examination was made
of several of the rooms up stairs in the
building but nothing discovered.
While in the hall running south Mr..
Adams observed a light in the middle
room of the suite occupied by the U.
Caswell had key which unlocked
the door and when Messrs Caswell
and Adams entered the room. the
strong odor and smell of burning pa
per convinced them that thev had dis
covered the location of the fire. The
lights were turned on and it was dis
covered that large wad of paper in
the waste basket was on fire.
The blaze was quickly exiting uished.
although it had burned the contents
of the basket and had already COM
menced to char the woodwork near
where the basket was sitting,
Observer Sullivan of the local sta
tion left the room about 9 O'Clock and
he cannot account for the fire being
in the basket.
1t seems almost providential that
Mr.. Adams was called to return to
the building. else there might have
been very disastrous fire. the rooms

night. it could have secured good
headway before being discovered. The
damage was slight.

The legislature of Arizona on We'd neday by an unanimous vote passed a joint resolution, protesting against the proposed compromise of the omni- bus statehood bill which admits Ari- zOna and New Mexico as one, state. The resolution says: "That the pro- posed union of New Mexico and Ari- zena, and their joint admission as a state, is inimical to the interests of the people of Arizona, and that we em- phatically oppose that proposal. !" It is the opinion of every Arizonan that it would be better to remain a Territory indefinitely than to be ad- mitted to statehood under such humil- itating condition.

Arixons's Female Bandit.

There is something fatiguing about the efforts of yellow newspapers in the east to exploit the wretched Peart Hart as the " Female Bandit of Arizona" says the Phoenix Republican. She is about as much of bandit as coyote is. '' Broke" on the desert, and stim- ulated by morphine, she and worth less, cowardly and degeneratsd male companion managed to summon enough nerve to stop a Reuben" stage driver. The pair were promptly captured and sent to the, penitentiary. Her fellow bandit" was such des- perate character that he was almost immediately made a ''trusty" around the prison, and served as cook for the superintendent family. One day he sauntered away and never came back, and there never was any public outcry for his apprehension and re turn to prison. In prison the woman was the same low creature that she was when free-her vocabulary of billingsgate gaining in richness while behind the bars. So illiterate that she can hardly write her own name, she is exploited as "educated and accom- plished," and is to go on the stage. In paroling her the governor wisely provided that she should leave the territory, and if eastern people wish to accept her as "the female bandit" and Arizona actress, they are welcome to her society so far as Arizona is con- cerned.

The President is taking no active part in the statehood bill contest, but he is concerned lest it should result in the sidetracking of other important legislation. He has indicated hereto fore his opposition to the omnibus bill, but whether his opinion regard ing the measure would impel him to veto it in case it were passed, is re- garded as doubtful.

Mrs. Johanna Soderholm of Fergus Falls, Minn., fell and dislocated her shoulder. She had surgeon get it back in place as soon as possible, but it was quite sore and pained her very much. Her son mentioned that he had seen Chamberlain's Pain Balm adver- tised for sprains and soreness, and she asked him to buy her bottle which he did. It very quickly relieved her and enabled her to sleep which she had not done for several days. The son was so much pleased with the re- lief it gave his mother that he has since recommended it to many others. For sale by Pioneer Drug Store.

Whether or not that the Omnibus bill will pass, or that Arizona and New Mexico are consolidated as one state, the name of New Mexico should be changed to some other name as it is the cause of numerous and constant mistakes and errors in many ways, owing to it's being confounded with old Mexico.
