District Court Notes.

The district attorneys office yester- day ran up against its thirteenth case in court. As announced yesterday morning, the first twelve cases tried resulted in a conviction in each, but the thirteenth broke the circuit of conviction. The defendant in the case was A. B. Kellogg and the charge was grand larceny consisting of alleged cattle stealing. When it came to prov ing ownership of the alleged stolen animal the evidence was not strong enough to warrant a conviction and by instruction of the court, the jury re- turned a verdict of not guilty and the defendant was discharged.
 The case of Edward W. Dewey against the Marcus Mining company, which has adorned the court calendar for some time was dismissed at plain tiff's cost on motion of his attorney.
 T. F. Averill, indicted for murder entered plea of not guilty and his trial was set for Tuesday, November 29th.
 The grand jury was in session a large part of the day and made it's final report about , o'clock.
 John Jacob Waidner, in the United States court, foreswore his allegiance to Kaiser Wilhelm and was transform ed into a citizen of the United States. He is a native of Wirtenburg.
 Today will be observed as a holiday by the court and no session will be held.

 ONCE TORE

Accompanying its final report last evening the grand jury returned four indictments against James P. Storm, charging him with being responsible for the defaclation existing in his office. One of the indictments charges embezzlement, another failure to prop erly care for the public funds, and one with loaning the money in the treas ury. A warrant was immediately is sued for his arrest and he was again taken into custody about 9 o'clock. Judge R. E. Sloan fixed his bond at S1O, GOO which he will no doubt readily give.
 The indictment caused no surprise in the community as it was expected that such action would be taken by the grand jury from the little scraps of evidence dropped by those who were called as witnesses.

A STUBBORN FIRE
 IN BANK BUILDING
Tie Heating Furnace Ignites Mat
 tresses and Other Goods and an
 Hour is Taken to Subdue it. Two Firemen Have a CIose Call.

One Of the ugliest fires ever to occur in this city was that of last night in ths5 basement of the Bank of Arizona building. It was in the quarters util- izcd by A. Blumberg, of the New YcEk store as a storage for mattresses and other like goods, and in the same room in which the heating furnace is located.
 The first pistol shot alarm was given shortly after 10 o'clock by Nathan Hirschberger, young man employed in this house, who with great deal of presence of mind, immediately turn. ed She small hose of water into the basement, but it was impossible to reach the place where the fire was burning.
 The fire department responded promptly and for nearly an hour the willing boys of two hose companies fought industriously to conquer. The coal chute from the street afforded the onty avenue through which a stream could be played, until an opening was

SKIRMISHING
 AND DIGGING
The Beligerents in the Orient Take an Occasional Shot and Are Digging Winter Homes.

Mukden, Nov. 25-Last night passed of quietly, though during Thursday a few scattering shots were heard along the front, particularly in a southeast erly direction. There are large tands of Chinese bandits in the neighbor- hood of Tiepass, though no Japanese officers have been noticed among them. The army around Mukden is making dugouts which are warm and comfortable, and this is regarded as evidence of the intention to pass the winter in the present location. Skir- mishing continues to the southward, but there has been no serious engage ment.

made in the floor of ths store, and
 when this was done, the fire was easily
 handled.
 The supposition generally is that the mattresses were ignited from the fur mace and being made of a combustible material, togteher with the furnace being we'll fired up, the coal and other articles also became necessarily ignit- ed.
 The damage will run into the hun dreds of dollars to MT. Blumberg, in goods that were damaged by water and through smoke also. Heavy plate glass was also broken, while the floor above was chopped up, and the exter- for as we'll cut into.
 Johnny Robinson and j. R. Datson, two n9rvy young men, were lowered into the burning furnace, in the face of sufocating smoke, and both had narrow escape from death. Mir. Dat son held onto the rope, and Mir Rob- inson lost his hold. The latter finally reached the ladder and was hurriedIy pulled up. It was at first believed that he had succumbed, but in the crisp air he was soon revived. It was the hardest fought fire to take place in recent years in this city, and the firemen deserve much praise for their heroic efforts.

FRIDAYS COURT
 PROCEEDINGS Joyce and MCGrath Re- Ceive Sentence.
Fields, King and Spence Get Con- tinuanGe Howell Mining Co.
 Vs. Carroll on Trial.

in the district court yesterday among the first business transacted was the passing of sentence on Barney Joyce for robbery and J. J. McGIath fer burglary in the second degree. Tie former received a sentence of three and half years in the peniten tiary and the latter was sent there for tvo years and six months.
 McGrath is the man who went to the Sisters hospital to get his hand dressed and who was tempted into stealing a watch, being arrested few haurs later, indicted on Monday morning and who plead guilty the same day. McGrash has found out Ey this time that if man wants to go to the penitentiary he can find the way oiled to make the trip swiftly and smoothly, though it does not often occur that man spends Sunday en- joying his liberty and freedom and finds himself before the next Sunday arrives, a convicted felon.
 James P. Storm was arraigned on the indictments recently presented against him and took the statutory time of twenty four hours to plead.
 The burlargy charge against Brick Spence was continued to future tine and the date for trial was not set.
 An old indictment against John Barns which has been hanging fire for scme time and continued from term to term, ras wiped off the calendar by being dismissed.
 Five separate cases against the Bradshaw Mountain Copper Mining ard Smelling company were placed on ths calendar and default entered in each case. The plaintiffs were the o. K. meat market, Bashford- Burmis es Co.,, John Smith, Colorado Iron works and DeMund Lumber company.
 The divorce case of Maux vs. Maux wss also placed on the calendar and a default entered.
 The casas against Hank Fields and Charles King charged with the theft of check was continued and bail was fixed at S25O each.
 A jury was impaneled to try the ,ase of the Howell Mining company against A. J. Carroll and the case was still on trial when the court took a re- cess until this morning.

LABOR QUESTIONS

 Another Controversy
The Customary Heated Discussion is Had on the Brewery WOrkmen and the Road is Left Open for LO
 cal Organizations to Travel Over.

San Francisco, Nov. 25-After the opening of today almost the entire day was taken up in a. bitter debate of the differences between the Brewery Workers Union and the International Brotherhood of Engineers and team sters, which was settled by the Ameri- can Federation of Labor. The vote on every point at issue, with one mil nor exception, was against that the brewery workers should join and come under the jurisdiction of the Brewery Workers Union. Representatives of the International Brotherhoods of Engineers, firemen and teamsters ob- jected to this and they introduced a to the effect that all work CTS in breweries be organized accord ing to their respective crafts and ask ed the convention to vote that all firemen and teamsters now in the brewery workers union shall leave same and join the organizations of their respective crafts. For an hour the debate was indulged in on the to substitute tre word ''may' for "shall' and the conven- tion finally voted for the change.

Useful Present.

In selecting holiday gifts it is far
 more satisfactory to buy those things
 of lasting value rather than useless trinkets which fade or break with the day. The popular drug house of Cor
 bin < Bork have had this idea in view and in the selection of their holiday stock, which is now being opened and placed on display, they have exercised good judgment in purchasing such goods as will be useful as we'll as or -namental. Notable is the line of fine mirrors for the dressing stand. The beauty and variety of these mirrors must be seen to be appreciated. No two are alike and for uniqueness and neatness this line excels anything heretofore brought to this market. Their line of toilet, manicure and shaving sets is also unusually we'll se- lected and carries the idea of utility along with its beauty.
 A great display of fine perfumery is attractive and the handsome packages in cut glass and fancy bottles are al ways esteemed as presents by family or friend. This firm is making a speciality of fine cigars by the box, which is a very acceptable present for most men, They are also agents for Lowney's fine candies which are the standard of excellence iG sweetmeats.

The manufacturer building shows
 what man is now doing with the forces of nature and the manufactured arti- cle is shown alongside of the pro- duct from which it was manufactured. The varied industries may rightly
 be called a magnificent "show win dow.'' The space in this building was applied for eight times over and only the very best was given space. Conse quently the display IS only the choic- est goods to be found in the big stores throughout the land. The Japanese exhibit is bS far the most costly and elegant in this building. There is a real Japanese temple just as it was used in Japan with all the exquisite articles carved from ivory for which the Japanese are so famous and the beautiful cabinets inlaId with mother of pearl and numerous costly articles of bronze and brass.
 England and Germany both have magnificent displays. The reproduc- tion of King Edwards $ yacht may be seen here and the English textile mills may be seen at work and the finished fabric is for sale on being taken from the machine. A diamond and pearl necklace valued at S250, GOO is shown on the neck of a revolving figure and the beautiful stones sparkle and gleam most enchantingly. The figure is carefully housed in glass, and behind the stand sit two men who never look aside or take their eyes from the crowd in front.
 We also saw the up to date bride in all her wedding finery, a bridal dress valued at s2200 and twenty or thirty more gowns from a S250 ordinary house dress to evening dresses valued at $500. No wonder the average American man cannot afford to marry.
 There was a locomotive and car made entirely of glass. 1t is said that the use of glass for this purpose is perfectly practicable. There was a cut glass table which is tEe triumph of cut glass art and said to be the only one ever made. It is valued at S2200. |
 If the varied industries is a big show window, it Is enc worth seeing. | We spent some time in the horticul- i tural building. The best display in | here is from California. The decora- tion is of oranges and the real article at that. There are great glass cases of all different nuts and jars holding | beautifully preserved punches of | fruit as we'll as the natural ripe fruit. The conservatories of this building held the flower exhibit which is going on this week. The rose display was very beautiful and great many rare flowers were shown, but the American Beauty roses were not as pretty as may be commonly seen in Phoenix at al most any time in their season. The show was grand, the largest flower measuring sixteen in- ;hes in circumfei ence and perfect in and shape.

ports of the committees appointed to
 examine the various county offices.
 The office of county school superin-
 tendent was examined by Walter G.
 Reese, II. c. Burmister and q. P.
 Harrington and was found to be we'll conducted by MT. Jolly.
 A very similar report was presented
 by H. c. Burmister, Harry BrisIey and I. E. FitZsimmons on the office of the board of supervisors.
 The committee which examined he assessor s office was composed of Dan Campbell, M. k. Spaulding and H. W. Paulsen and their report was quite brief finding that the office and book of Assessor D. J. Sullivan are kept in neat and intelligent manner. The vouchers for the current year tally with the county treasurer's receipts.
 w. D. Berry. Frank Lecklider and c. E. Linn examined the sheriff's office and reported very favorably on it, but reported a number of articles needed for it.
 An excellent condition of affairs were found in the office of the probate judge by c. c. Stukey, E. G. Sharp neck and D. Campbell. Not only were the conditions satisfactory but the probate judge was complimented besides.
 Contrary to expectations the report of the committee which spent several days in the examination of the treas urer's office submitted a rather brief report.
 In reference to the reported robbery they reported that sufficient evidence had been obtained to warrant bringing it before the grand jury and recom- mended that the following witnesses be cited for examination: A. J. Head, Ed Wright, J. l.. Munds, D. D. Me Donald, s. A. Prince and c. P. Hicks. They found that pernicious system has prevailed of accepting and helping checks in the office for months and re- commended that the system be abol- ished. The committee consisted of George W. Sines, G. P. Harrington, N. Levy, M. Bradley, W. D. Berry.
 Nj. E. Spaulding, W. M. Gibbay and s. M. Boblett examined the recorders office and found it in satisfactory | and up to date condition. They called | the attention of the grand jury to the fact that Dr. R. N. Looney of McCabe is the only physician in Yavapai i county who complies or attempts to | comply with the statute in relation to births and deaths and that the last birth record in the city of Prescott vas by pr. Davis, December 8, 1901.
 The committee which examined the county hospital presented the most elaborate report of any of the commit ees. It was composed of Harry Bris- ey, Dan Campbell and c. B. Linn. They reported having found the gen 'ral conditions satisfactory the in hates appearing to be we'll cared for md comfortable cheerful and fairly content. The committee made num- )er of recommendations such as the epair of water pipe, the purchase of lose for fire protection; reflooring of ome of the rooms; the fitting up of a oom for the men who are able to do heir washing in; means for heating he bath room; an electric battery for Ise on certain class of patents.
 They recommended the extension of ontracts to contractors who are doing heir work satisfactorily to two or hree years.

Citizenship Regulation.

Tor many years this government
has been embarrassed by persons who
reside i'm the United States long enough
10 acquire citizenship and return to
their native land claiming American
protection. South American revolution
lists have come 10 New York, stayed Il
few years, and returned 10 their home
country to fomcnt disturbances. When
arrested by the authorities they have
claimed American citizenship and cs-
capped punishment. Armenians fol-
lowed the same practice and returned
10 Turkey 10 make trouble for the Sui
tan. Not long ago it came To the at
tention of the state department that
certain native Haitans had acquired
American citizenship in New York and
then returned 10 Haiti and aided a
revolutionary party. They insisted
upon the protection Of the American
flag and the United States had to help
them out of their difficulty To obvi-
ate Il recurrence of this Secretary Hay
and the Haitian minister. Mr. Lager.

where a native of Haiti becomes Il nat
