Was Well Known Here

Press dispatches on March 21 stated that on the 18th, at River side, Cal, an unknown man was mangled and killed by a train.
 There was over $500 on his per son, while bank books showed that he had $55 GOO on deposit at three different banks One is at Los Angeles, another at Imperial, Cal, and the third at Hanford.
 Later it was discovered that the dead man was D. B. Griffin, who was in partnership with Frank Murphy at Hanford in the cattle business. Griffin was once resi- dent of this section, going under the name of William Johnson. He was foreman of both the "L O. and "A 1" ranches, and later, with Mur- phy, ran a herd of his own. Martin Buggeln, who returned from the coast a few days since, had been told by Murphy that the dead man was Johnson, or Griffin.

"A WISE WOMAN" COMPANY
One of the Best Companies Seen
 in Albuquerque Lately.

With just six people and @ plan ist, the "A Wise Woman" company gave one of the cleverest perform ances that Albuquerque has seen for a long time in Elks' theater last night. Each one of the company is an artist and each one last night pleased the audience with as clever a bit of farce as has been put on the stage in Mexico. "A Wise Woman" is a tangled plot in which a stern guardian with a past be- comes strangely mixed up with an erring nephew, who. in turn, has a ward who marries against his, the nephew's will. There is a baby which takes a rather prominent part in the piece, and the adoen- lures and changing parentage of the youngster forms the interesting corners on which the plot turns. From end to end it is a laugh, a great big hearty laugh, and it is worth seeing again. There is talk of the company playing a return date. If it does it will play to a crowded house.-AlbuquerQue Morning Journal, March 26
 This company will play one night, Wednesday, April 6, at the Williams opera house. Prices soc, 75c and $1.00.

EVERY newspaper man has to expect and does have occasional kicks from people who do not like some article they happen to pub fish. Such kickers should always remember that they are not the only subscriber the paper has and that there are others the editor must try to please as well as them. Where some article may happen to hurt their feelings or tread on the toes of some friend of theirs, they should remember that there may be, and usually is, hundred other people who think said article the proper thing. No man is perfect. The average editor does not claim to be, but he uses his best iudg- ment and tries to please the masses, not individuals.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY E. M. DOE returned to Flagstaff last Monday evening from Phoenix, where he had been summoned to appear be- fore the supreme court, mention of which is made on first page. Mir. Doe stated to us that in the event that the county, upon proper show ing by MT. Buggeln, should bring suit and revoke the charter given R. H. Cameron and associa tes, who are operating the Bright Angel trail, he would make an effort to have the county conduct the trail and collect the tolls. In that event all rivalry would be stopped and the revenue on toll collections would go long way toward pay ing the county indebtedness.

 Some unknown persons broke in Henry Hills house at Challender and carried off everything that was possible to carry. The officers in Williams were notified, but, alas, too late. The parties had made good their escape.
 The boys of our camps have made Williams their home for several years. Although not being able to be in town all the time, it is still their home, and now they are re- fused vote, although they are en- ployed and paid in Williams, but their work carries them outside the city limits the same as cowboys, but the latter can vote, while our votes are refused. Our money is still accepted; that helps some.
 The most pitiful sight seen in these parts for many a day was at Challender on Monday last. A woman, a horse and cart and four small children. All claimed to have walked from Kentucky; they surely looked it; but the worst was when those two little girls came up and wanted a chew of tobacco, which was supplied them, and the way they devoured that tobacco would make an old salt sailor sea sick. After Engineer Ryan had supplied them with water and tobacco they proceeded on their way.
 On Sunday last Dan P. German, Charles and Amos Lindstrom be- gan a bombardment on the ducks at Mott's lake nearly the same as Port Arthur, and after the smoke had cleared sufficient to see the re- suits they had twenty-one fine ducks; but, alas, Amos was minus his horse, which made for the tall pines in the first engagement. Amos, who was wearing a pair of heavy rubber boots, changed his glasses several times to see if he could shorten a ten mile walk, but it was walked in the good old style, mile after mile, landing at camp both hungry and sore If his word keeps good he will shoot no more.

NEXT Monday will occur the election for the choice of city off, cers. AS we have stated before, we believe it is not the duty of news paper to try and prejudice anyone against a candidate in town the size of Williams. If any of the can didates have faults they are known to one and all alike, as is their fit ness for the positions they seek. Therefore we shall refrain from any suggestions. We shall go to the polls and cast our ballot for the men who, in our opinion, are best qualified.

MAN HUNT IN
new JERSEY
Three Negroes Assault Farmers Wife
After RObbing the House.
TWO SUSPECTS UNDER ARREST

Burlington, n. j.. July 6.-With her
1-year-old babe by her side and her
husband away delivering milk. Mrs.
Elsie T. Biddle, the young wife of /
Charles Biddle. a farmer living along I
the Rancocas road, near here, was the /
victim of criminal assault and robbery /.
by three negroes and a man hunt is in
progress throughout the surrounding
country. The outrage is one of the
worst that has ever occurred in this
section and hundreds of men armed
I with all sorts OF weapons are in pur-
suit of the perpetrators.
Mrs. Biddle recognized one of the
men as Aaron Timbers. who was re-
Gently released from the Jamesbury
reform school. The second man is
said to be a well known negro charac-
ter and the third an unknown farm
hand. Pursuers caught up twice to the
negroes and two of them are believed
to have been wounded.
Later two negro suspects were
brought to the Burlington jail. At the
lock up a large crowd had assembled
and threatened to lynch them 1t was
with much difficulty that they were
gotten into the building safely Both
men declare they are innocent.
Mrs Biddle was washing the break
fast dishes when she heard knock at
the door. Responding to the call she
was confronted by three masked ne
groes. one of whom she is sure is
Timbers. This man held a revolver to
+ her head and demanded her money
She protested she had nothing. to
! which Timbers, who had been EN-
f ployed on the farm and knew the
: family. replied that she lied and thal
money was on the second floor. Leav
}, ing one man on guard the other two
=, forced Mrs. Biddle to go up stairs anc
= secure the money. Under cover OF the
|. revolver she produced S13. The ne
groes found a watch which they re
t turned on her plea that it was glVeI
v to her by her mother. The negro wh'
was on guard was called up stairs an'
e Mrs. Biddle's hands were tied behln'
6 her and two handkerchiefs stuffed Il
her mouth. With a revolver pointe'
.s at her head Mrs. Biddle was assaulte'
&c bv each of the negroes. They thel
h left the place.
Mrs. Biddle managed to leave IN
is house and crossing the fields met
in neirhbor She told her story, an
in within half an hour a small posse wa
in pursuit. Word was sent to all IN
in farms in the neighborhood and to Bur
W ireton. Dozens OF small parties arm
Sc ed with guns. revolvers and clubs ais
Joined in the chase.
Charles Davis. young farmer VIM
80 hu,rying to the Biddle home, can
y; across the negroes and opened nj
" from a gun. One negro was wounde
7 but he got away with the others. W
0n liam Braddock, another farmer ais
saw the men and fired at the trio, WI
!, also fired several shots. Braddo'
~ claims that he hit one of them.
Warrants have been sworn out II
m Timbers and another negro nam'
of BYRON Fox. who is wanted by the P
in. lice. A search was made OF the non
of Timbers' mother, but no clue OF nj
c was found. The mother said; i no
