CH HARLEs CROW DEAD
Passed Away Suddenly While Seated
 in a Chair

Charles Crow died very suddenly last night in the saloon conducted on East Washington street by Hooker and Hayes. He was over 70 years old and has been in feeble health for some time and subject to melancholy refiec- tions.
 He went into the saloon about , o'clock in the evening and asked for quarter to get something to eat. It was given to him and less than an hour later he returned and sat down in a chair. No one paid particular atten- ton to him till little dog in the room jumped upon a chair near him and be- gan barking. It was then observed that he was reclining in an unusual position and an examination by those in the saloon showed that he was either dying or dead for though his body was yet warm there was no perceptible heart action. Before a physician could be secured the body began to stiffen and there were unmistakable evidences that dissolution had occurred. Coroner Robertson impaneled a jury which viewed the remains after which the in- quest was continued till today.
 MT. Crow has lived in Phoenix for
 
 who knew him. He came here from California where he resided a long time and previous to that he was engaged in mining in Nevada. He was quiet and unassuming but a typical from tiersman of the old school.
 About nine years ago. after a series of robberies of R. Wilson's store in this city, MT. Crow was employed as watchman. A few nights afterward a Mexican named Apodaca tried to enter the building from the rear. He was buried the next day or the day after and the coroner's jury verified a state ment previously made by MT. Crow that Apodaca came to his death as the result of a gunshot wound inflicted by him. The jury also found that MT. Crow had done just exactly what he ought to have done and at the right time.

Down in Wilmington, Del. an enter. prising insurance man, by the name of H. N. Fell. has compiled a little pam phlet showing how fast small savings increase and how much life insurance can be carried in an old-line company by the daily saving of such amounts as six, ten or fifty cents a day. To read of the insurance these small savings will buy, is staggering to a layman. It runs up into thousands of dollars. But the pamphlet itself is we'll worth look ing through and we understand it IS distributed free.

RECEPTION TO
 GOVERNOR ERODE
Given by Secretary and Mrs.
 Isaac I. Stodddrd
An Event of Unusual Brilliance-All 0ficialdom and Society Generally in Attendance Magnificent Dec orations.

Probably the most magnificent social function that was ever enjoyed in Arizona, and one that was participated in by a greater number of guests than any similar event, was the reception last night given by Secretary Isaac T. Stoddard and Mrs. Stoddard in honor of Governor and Mrs. A. O. Brodie. IL was even more than a reception, for MT. Stoddard had the foresight a few years ago to be born on the 18th of January He was privileged to enjoy the occasion as a birthday party also. But the birthday feature was only an incident of the reception which was ar ranged by Mir Stoddard as a special compliment to MT. and Mrs. Brodie, who for many years were old friends and neighbors in Yavapai county. The date was well chosen, for 1t marked the opening session of the legislature, some members of which met the governor yesterday for the first time. The rela- tions of the executive and the members of that body are to be peculiarly in timate, and it is hoped pleasant, dur ing the next sixty days. and no event could have been more appropriately arranged for establishing intimate per sonal acquaintance at the beginning of their mutual labors.
 Many invitations were issued both to members of the legislature and to lead ing citizens generally, and from 9 o'clock on till the close of the evening there was g constant stream of car riages travelling to and from the hand some Stoddard residence on North Gen. ter street.
 The guests were met al their car riages by an attendant and an other had charge of the door, through which they entered a spacious hallway, where they were met by the ushers. Messrs. Roy F.. Goodrich. William English. w. w. Jones. O. P. Morton, Ward Hughes, Phelps Gilmore, Frank D. Lane, Joe Cassou, c. E Christy, Ned Creighton and Paul Brig ard. The ladies were directed to the floor above where they were met by attendants. and the gentlemen were es- corted to the billiard room below for removal of hats and oYercoats
 building could scarcely be planned that would better meet the require ments of such a function. The corridor or hallway is itself a handsome parlor On the left are two large arches, one leading to the drawing room and the other to the music room, while these two rooms are also connected by 2 similar arch, forming the main recep- tion parlors. To the right of the hail an arch leads into the library and be- yond that is the broad stairway leading to the second floor. Opposite this stair

 The Wyoming courts sustained the law. but their holding was reversed by Justice Browns decision. He said the grazing of the sheep was only inciden- tai to their transit, and if stock in transit could be taxed in one state it could be taxed in any number of states through which it might pass.

A Secret Disease

Of all human diseases, that known as contagious blood poison, or the Bad Disease, has caused more misery and suf- fering and ruined more lives than all others combined. It not only wrecks the hopes and aspirations of the one who contracts it, but often the innocent are made to share the humiliation and dis grace of this most loathsome and hateful form of blood poison. Children inherit it from parents, and thousands of the purest men and women have been con- taminated and ruined simply through handling the clothing of one infected

In a quiet and dignified manner, as be- fits the station in life which he portrays, Paul Gilmore last night gave an excel- lent interpretation of the part of the Mummy in "The Mummy and the Hum- ming Brd''

As an interpreter of tha; .ine of quiet work which is being affe3led more or less on the stage today, he is excel lent. He seems naturally to drop into a part of this kind and he rises steadily until the climax, when he and his wife are united never to separate again.

TONE OF REPORT IS MORE CHEERFUL But Movement of Material is
 Not Significant DECEMBER IS NOT ACTIVE Southern Iron Producers Are Evidently Making Stand at $s.25 for 6ir-
 mineham Product, Which Is
 the Minimum Price.
DECEMBER IS NOT ACTIVE

Cleveland. O.. December 3.-The Iron Trade Review, in it's current issue, says: The tone of reports from selling centers is rather more cheerful this week put the movement of material is not such as to be significant. December is not an active month and the wage reductions currently announced and the more gen. eral ones to come at the end of the year are not calculated to create optimism. Yet there is too much general enthusiasm throughout the trade to assume that deep or long drawn depression is ahead. Mills and furnaces shut down, but other mills and furnaces start up and the volume of shipments indicates average consump- ton that only seems small by contrast with business that could not be han died.
 Southern pig iron producers, whose op- erations have been the gauge of the market for so long time, are evidently making a stand, though not coneertly at $9 .25 Birmingham, for No. foundry iron. Buyers who have offered to place business al $9 have been unable to do so, and but for the increasing number of sales on analysis preventing accurate following of grade prices it might be said that $9.25 for No. ? is a minimum. A report of the week, the importance of which will be determined by events, is that a syndi- cate composed chiefly of directors of a large southern furnace company, has bought and taken off the market 75,000 tons, comprising nearly all the conn panys accumulated stock. Consumers have made further considerable purchases of southern iron, western buying being works are negotiating for additional tom mage.
 Northern furnaces continue to let south ern sellers take business and will not meet their prices. though in the Pitts burg district and at certain points in Ohio. northern prices come closer to the southern basis than was the case a few weeks ago. The readjustment of costs Is the problem with northern furnaces. Some wage reductions have been made and iron January 1, western Pennsylva- mia and eastern Ohio furnaces will make general reductions. There remains much higher priced ore to use up, however, and central western furnaces under their drastic curtailment programme will not need next years ore before August.
 Coke has already had a considerable fall but efforts to secure an agreement among producers give no great promise of success.
