 Pistol on Officer
SLAYER OF FRANK BROWN IN ROLE OF WOULD BE
 SHOOTER AGAIN.

Released on Cash Bond Of s1fs-At tempted to Draw Pistol on a Police man Enroute to Jail
Bisbee daily review., 1904-10-23

Ben Massey. who was brought into the Hmelight some time ago when he killed Frank Brown, travelling auditor for the San Antonio Brewing company. drew a pistol on an officer last evening, so the police say.
 Massey is alleged to have slapped a woman on Utah street and she promptly made complaint to the ofil- cers. Officer Cain arrested Massey, and was taking him to jail when tho Oiiicec says Massey drew a pistol.
 Officer Alderete was just a step be- hind Massey and saw the movement, the officers say. in time to catch Mas sey's arm. The pistol was taken from him and he was lodged in jail.
 At the jail his language toward the police is said to have been extremely insolent. He was released upon giv- ing cash bond Of S116 to keep the peace.
 When Massey killed Brown last spring, he pleaded that he was not in the habit of carrying a revolver ex- cept when going hone at night or car. Tylng his days receipts.
 Massey IS running the bar at the Angelus.
 Massey denies that he struck a woman or that he pulled a revolver on the officer. To a Herald reporter, who sought him for a statement this afternoon. he said: T was at Salvini's place with two friends last night and We were all drinking. When we started to leave a woman tried to keep one Of my friends from going till he bought another dirnk and | pulled him away from her. She cursed me and said she would have me ar ! rested. We started home and Tom
 Cain came up anI saic that l could
 consider myself under arrest. I asked
 why and he said had struck woman
 at Salvni's. I denied the charge for I never struck a woman in my life.

Santa Fe eEmplOyeS
 Will Do Politics
THEY PROPOSE TO PERFECT PER- MANENT ORGANIZATION AT
 PRESCOTT.
The vote of the Santa Fe Employees Win Be important in Determining Election Results in YaVapai County -Attention Attracted.

Prescott, Oct 22.-It has been rum- ore1 here for several cays that the employees of the Santa Fe Railroad would form a political organization This matter was investigated today.
 State for me that the political or ganization to be formed this evening 6y the Santa Fe Railroad employees will be entirtly non-partisan. and will take no part in this campaign" said c. N Hammond. one of the engineers employed by the s. F. P. and P road this morning.
 Local papers have for the past two days contained brief notices to the ef- feet that all employees of the Santa Fe company are requested to meet this evening in Odd Fellows hall for the purpose of forming a permanent political organization.
 In some quarters this has caused a great deal of concern. as the vote of the Santa Fe employees would be somewhat Of a factor if combined and thrown in any one direction
 The leaders in the movement now on foot are Engineer Hammond and M C. McNulty. both of whom started the idea among the railroad men in this city. requesting each of them to be at the meeting this evening
 We want it distinctly understood. % said Hammond. later, that the of ficials Of the Santa Fe are in no way connected with this movement. and have. in fact counselled against it. have already heard that some be heye it 10 be political move on the part of the railroad, but this is mis- take
 q cannot say what will be done by the railroad men until after the meet. ing. None but employees of the road will be allowed there and it rests in ti.ely with them as to what steps will be taken"
 The organization is to be perma nent and it is net created for this campaign. as I've intend to take iiC part in it except as individuals which is our right and privilege the same as anyone else.
 | "One of the purposes. however oi this organization will be to look after the interests Of railroad men, who | in any manner become unable to longer 1 perform their duties. We believe that some of them should be favored witt ! positions as deputies and clerks and We will later work to that end. This is the first organization O this kind that has been attempted 1T 1 Arizona as far as I know. 1 have been employed by other roads, where ] it was attempted, and found to do 2 ! great Ceal of good to Tailroaders while it worked no hardship on any one.
 There arc a large number of rail road men in this section, and the rail road men as 9 class get less recogni ton at the hands of other parties than any other class that could be men toned"

 Tombstone

Chinese Inspector Charles Connell came 10 the city yesterday from Tomb stone with two Chinamen. They are now in jail in the city awaiting hear ing on Wednesday. when they will have to explain about slipping across the line recently from Mexico.
 Inspector Connen got wind of some thing doing along the border in the matter of evasion of the Chinese law about a week ago. He immediately went to work with the result that he ran his men down at Tombstone. The arrests represent some very clever work by the efficient officer.

PROMPT Decision.

The secret of getting through work is
meshod. Order, it has been said, is
Gods first law. Let it be yours. Do not
let your work accumulate upon your
hands It is not work that kills. but
arrears of work. Work put OFF is work
put on with heavy interest. Sufficient
unto the day is the evil thereof" 1t
becomes intolerable if it be laid upon
tomorrow.
If l may recommend you three rules
for saving time and economizing
strength they shall be these: Answer
letters, keep appointments, make up
your minds. In the affairs Of this life
a prompt decision is often more impor-
tant than a right decision. One man
makes up his mind and acts, it may be,
wrongly, but if so he finds out his mis-
take, corrects and retrieves it before
another man has acted at all. 1t is
possible to waste a great amount of
time by thinking, and still more by
talking over actions. First thoughts
are sometimes wiser than second and
generally wiser than third. -

A Queer CeyIOnese Grass.

Lemon grass. known to bCtanists
as Andropogen schaenanthus and
which is unknown outside Of Ceylon
and there only in the Kandian dis
trict, is in several respects q most re
markable vegetable production. It
grows to height Of six or seven feet
and has the wonderful property of
spontaneous ignition. On the slopes
of Mount Ambulawe during the wet
season the grand spectacle Of these
spontaneous CONGREGATIONS is frequent

or bright tongue of flame will be no.
ticed. Soon, however, as the water runs
down the stalks and mingles with the
oil and acids contained in the pith Of
this curious herb fierce fires burst into
view here, there and every place, soon
covering the whole mountain in a
sheet of fame. The botanists and
chemists have not as yet explained
why this paradoXical grass ignites
when water ia lis upon it's stalks.

The Syrian BulbuI,

The Syrian bulbul (nightingale) has
the loveliest voice Of all Gods crea-
lures and the saddest song ever heard.
Shady coverts fringing the Jordan still
shelter the bird that "sings darkling."
There is a legend that the bulbul
sat in the olive tree in the garden of
Joseph of Arimathea and the night be-
fore the resurrection through the
darkness poured out her soul in sor-
rowing plant above the still sleeper
in the tomb wherein was never man
laid. When the first Easter morning
broke over the eastern hills the eggs
in the nest Of the brooding bird spar
kled with gold, blue, orange and Grim
son, and SO we color eggs at Easter
for a memorial Of the lone singer who
sang by the holy sepulcher.-''The City
of the King" by Mrs. Lew Wallace.

Sir Philip Francis at Cards.

Francis, the Sir Philip Frarcis whom
many ingenious critics have, in def
ance of probability, insisted on identi-
flying with the author of the letters Of
Junius, was an inveterate gambler.
Cards dominated over the whole Anglo
Indian society of Calcutta in those
days, and many a crime inflicted on
the unhappy natives had it's origin in
the losses at the gaming table Of their
alien rulers.
When in India, it was the habit of
Francis to spend every night in this
amusement, and he found an able CO.
adjutor at the card table in the wife of
his colleagues, Lady Anne Monson,
who was reckoned "a very superior
whist player" Good fortune generally
shone on the plans Of Francis. About
1775 he was visited with 'an extraordi-
nary run of luck" so marked indeed
that he had actually won a fortune"
RumOr, which sometimes exaggerates,
went so far as to estimate his gains at
80 laos of rupees.-Temple Bar.

Unigua VOtive Offerings.

In many churches Of Provence and
Italy, especially those near the sea,
paintings placed On the walls in &C.
cordance with VOWS made by pilgrims
in moments Of danger are often re-
markable for their frames. Among
the curiosities may be enumerated
laths formed OF splinters from ships
that have been wrecked; also frames
made of pieces of heavy cables. Ccca-
sionally painted bright hues, but some
times left in their primitive gray col
or splashed with tar. Nailed to the
laths surrounding painting repre-
senting sailors fighting with fierce say
ages may be seen African or POlyne-
sian spears and darts or swords made
of hard wood, evidently mementos of
terrible struggles. Sailors or lands
men who have made VOWS during
times of peril at sea and who have no
trophies to display will surround their
paintings with broad bands of wood
heavily incrusted with shells and sea-
weed, not infrequently of rare and ex-
tremely beautiful kinds.

Action of the Earth Upon BOdi'


Years ago. when the bodies were re-
moved from the Cimetiere des limo
cents at Paris, the common pits IL
which great numbers of the bodies had
been inferred together were found to
contain masses of a grayish white
soapy substance. The matter was not
very we'll understood at that time, but
it is now known that the remains of
the dead are under certain conditions
transformed into such a material, Ell
Their wholly or in part, which has been
named "adipocere." 1t is true am
moniacal soap, being a combination OF
fatty acids with ammonia.
Bodies that are exposed to the action
of water percolating through the soil
are most apt to undergo this species of
transformation. Inasmuch as adipo-
cere is not perishable under ordinary
circumstances, corpses thus changed
very often retain their form indefinite
ly. Now and then they are dug up, and
ignorant writers in newspapers refer
to them as wonderful instances OF
''petrifaction."

The stockholders of the Prairie Queen
Creamery association held meeting last
week Wednesday for the purpose of sell
ing the plant. The state creamery in
spector was present and advised against
the move, saying that it had previously
been managed so ably that it ranked as
one of the best factories in the state and
could be so done again. The stockhold-
ers thereupon voted not to sell but to
re-elect the old manager, John Chris.
Hanson, AMI see what could be done
again. Mr. Christensen was certainly
very successful in his management of
the creamery when it was 10 his hands
ard no doubt will do likewise again. We
understand he has re-engaged Martin
johnson as butter maker and takes
charge OF the factory June 1st.- Cam

Hamlet at Singapore.

I saw Hamlet played and adapted
for Malays at Singapore. 1t was sung
instead Of spoken, and mostly to Eng

ghost to the tune of Her Golden
Hair and killed Polonius to "Listen

son to That's English, You Know

He Wouldn't Miss Prayer.

When Professor Tucker was Tutor
Tucker at Bowdoin college the bell
rang for prayers at the chapel, as now,
very early in the morning. and it was
imperative upon tutors and pupils to
respond. AS a tutor Mr.. Tucker was
very popular, although very strict, and
he was always prompt to take his
place at the head Of his class at the
early morning deyotions.
One morning, however, he found his
clothing gone and his door nailed while
the bell was ringing. Finding a hatch
ct he soon split the door down, and at
the last stroke Of the bell appeared,
clothed in his shirt and pair of over
alls, barefooted, but with a smile Of
serenity on his expressive countenance.
He took bis customary place, and nei-
Their then nor afterward were words Of
complaint heard from him.
Brilliant Record of IA Newspaper Man.
The success which has attended Will
liam E. Curtis, the famous correspon-
dent of The Chicago Record Herald, is
rarely attained by newspaper writer's.
Beginning his career in Chicago ia 1872
as reporter, he rapidly rose to the posi-
ton Of managing editor. He resigned
that position on receiving a government
appointment as secretary of the South
American commission. Mr.. Curtis trav-
eled extensively in Central and South
America while in this position, produc-
ing several popular volumes as the result
of his literary labors. Afterward coop
Grating with Secretary of State James
G. Blaine, Mr. Curtis organized the work
Of the bureau of American republics,
with the result that he was placed in
charge of that organization; and at the
Worlds Columbian Exposition he dis
tinguished himself by his labors as the
executive head of the Latin American
department. AS correspondent of The
Chicago Record Herald Mr.. Curtis trav-
els have carried him into every section
of the United States as we'll as into all
quarters of the globe. His China and
Japan letters we're published in book
form: likewise his letters from England,
Germany and France, as we'll as those
written during his travels in Mexico and
South America.
No newspaper correspondent possesses
the faculty shown by Mr.. Curtis in writ
ing on any of the diversified subjects
embraced in his correspondence and
making it luminous. Nor is any cores
pendent followed so closely year after
year by the thousands of readers Of The
Chicago Record Herald. On his recent
trip to the Holy Land Mr.. Curtis letters
have been read more closely than ever
and his descriptions Of that interesting
section of the CLONE as it appears today
have been quoted everywhere.
A daily letter from Mr.. Curtis appears
in The Chicago Record Herald.

.CO-EDS TIED UP
MALE STUDENTS
A NEW KIND OF COLLEGE
RUSH IN AN INDIANA INSTI-
TUITION.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, June 18.-A
dinner was given to upper classmen at
Hutler College last night, and when the
guests assembled Miss Quinn, a senior,
and Miss Sucker, a junior, were not
present. 1t was learned that they had
been captured by the girls in the college
dormitory and were held prisoners. The
seniors and juniors went to the dormi-
tory and after breaking down the door
to the room in which the two girls were
held, succeeded in dragging them out.
The captors fought the upper class
men down the stairs, out upon the lawn
and then on the street outside disput-
ing every inch of the way and taking
Several punches of hair from the upper
classmen and leaving marks of their
finger nails on the faces.
After nearly an hours struggle the
upper classmen got q clothes line and
tied the girls back to back and left
them. The girls were released by the
under classmen, and all proceeded in a
body to the house where the dinner
was in progress. Two of the girls went
TO the door and began to taunt those on
the inside, when the upper classmen
made a rush to capture them At this
all the under classmen made a rush for
the seniors and juniors and the fight
was renewed. Jack Anthony, an ath-
lete who captained the baseball team;
Jason Elston, the senior class presi-
dent; Charles Hunt S. NJ. Compton and
TWO others were captured. They were
tied hand and foot with clothes lines
and born back to the dormitory, where
they were neld as prisoners till 8 o'clock
this morning. 1t was a complete
triumph for the girls and the boys ad-
init 1t, and point to their scratched
faces as evidence of what good fighters
the girls are.
