arrested last Saturday as The RepubH- can mentioned on Sunday morning. Harcourt protested, against the arrest. He said that Steinfe1d ought to be made to resort to a civil suit to recover the money out of which he alleged him self to be defrauded.
 The case according to the Los An geles papers promises to become a sem sational one in the developing of a Los Angeles syndicate who furnished Har- court with his diamonds and took $8.0OO of the money he had secured from Steinfeld. Harcourt now is al most penniless.
 A surprise was sprung on the Los Angeles authorities and Sheriff Mur- phy by the attorney for Harcourt who said that HarcOurt would waive ex- tradition if the sheriff would start back with him at once. That was suspected to be a trick to leave the way open for a habeas corpus proceed ing. It was therefore decided to con tinue the hearing of the case before a local justice of the peace for two days and the sheriff at once set out for Sacramento after his papers.

Sheriff Murphy of Tucson Will Short-
 ly Bring Him Back.

The Los Angeles papers which came, yesterday announced the arrival there Of Sheriff Frank Murphy, of Pima county, armed with a requisition on the governor of California for the ex- tradition of J. F. Harcourt wanted in Tucson for the swindling of Albert Steinfeld out of $12.O0O by means of bogus diamonds which he pawned with Steinfeld representing them to be worth s3oOO0
 Sheriff Murphy was in Phoenix last Monday, his principal object here be- ing to obtain the requisition though he concealed his purpose behind negro whom he brought 10 the insane asylum It was learned though that he had applied for a requisition but nothing more could be gathered from him.
 On the arrival of the sheriff in Los Angeles he found Harcourt in the city jail under a bond of S1O,OOO, which he was unable to furnish. He had been

A JEFFERSON ANEcpolE.

Joseph Jefferson once told a friend that during his long stage career he had never been associated with anyone showing undue familiarity with him save one individual, man named Bagley, who some years ago was prop erty man in the comedian's company.
 This Bagley annoyed Mir. Jefferson very much by his somewhat offensive manners, but owing to the valuable services rendered by him, MT. Jeffer- son had always been Ioath to take measures more severe than a repri- mand. But finally the familiarity of the property man increased to an ex- tent impossible to endure, so he was summarily discharged. This dismissal occurred just before the opening of MT. Jefferson's engagement one year in Baltimore.
 That night BagIey got exceedingly drunk. Paying his way into the the ater, he repaired to the gallery, there to see his old employer enact Rip Van Wrinkle.

EvANGELISTIC SERVICES
Meetings at the fl. E.
 Church South.

The meetings at the M. F. church. south, are increasing in interest and the attendance is good. There is yet plenty of room in the big edifice, how ever, and it is the desire of all con cerned in the meetings to have the house crowded every night. There is a chorus choir of ever thirty voices and the music is also helped very mater ially by an orchestra of eight pieces. three horns, three violins and the piano and organ. The choir is led by Mir Lyle Conner, the noted singing evan gelist, who in addition sings one or more touching solos at each service.
 Last night the pastor, Rev. Govette, preached very able sermon, his sub ject being What is Life" the text be- ing taken from the fourth chapter of James. The meeting was an exception ally good one.
 Today there will be two church ser vices, one at 10:3O in the morning and the other at 7:30 in the evening. At GAS in the evening there will be a short street service at some point on Washington street between Center and First street. At this service Mir. Con- nor will also be present and sing enc or mora solos. It will be worth the while of any one on the street at that hour to stop and listen ard the public generally is urged to attend the sub sequent service in the church also.

A MURDER AT MAYER
T. F. AveriII Shoots Tilford After a
 Quarrel at Cards.

A telephone message was received at the office of the sheriff yesterday af- ternoon from the sheriff's office at Prescott notifying the office here of murder which had been committed at Mayer the night before and the flight of the murderer probably in this direction. There were no details of the crime and at that time none had been received in Prescott. It was only known that a man by the name of. T. N. Iilford had been shot and killed by q man by the name of T. F. AveriU. If was added that it had been reported that the murder had been committed in cold blood and that Tilford was un- armed.
 The Republican last night teIephoned to the office of the sheriff at Prescott for additional information Not much more had been received there in the meantime. It was understood that the men had been gambling in one of the saloons of the place earlier in the night and had engaged in a fierce quarrel. They separated and about midnight met in the street when Averfu shot Ttlford and fled.
 Nothing was known at Prescott of either of the men, how long they had been at Mayer or what their occuDa- uons were. It is the suppostion of the officers that Averi1l fled in a southerIy direction, probably with the idea of reaching Mexico but telegraph and telephone messa ges have been sent in every direction.
 Averill is described as being about thirty-six years of age and about five feet ten inches in height. His weight is from 1S0 to 19O pounds. He has

DEATH OF MRS. BELLYA-Mrs. Josephine Bellya died last night at 11:30 o'clock at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. Robert Chapman, No. 213 east Van Buren street, of pneu- monia. No arrangements for the fun eraI were made last night and it was not decided whether it would be held on Saturday or Sunday. Mrs. Bellya was well advanced in years and was well known, having lived in this city the greater part of the time for the last twenty years.
 CENTRAL AVENUE ASSOCIATION The announced meeting of the Central Avenue Driving association at the Os- born school house last night for the purpose of considering the future of the neglected Central Avenue was held. It was called to order was elected chairman and Charles Van der Veer secretary. There was a gem eraI discussion of the matter in hand but on account of rather meager at tendance of the members of the asso- citation and the persons interested in the movement it was decided to ad- journ the meeting until next Tuesday night at the Hotel Adams. It was brought outin the discussion last night that $2,00O had been expended on the avenue in the last year and that there was now little to show for 1t in the condition of the thOrOughfare. It was also thought that unless heavy traffic could be kept off the avenue it would be useless for the subscribers to con- tinue to try to keep it up.
 WARREN -EVANS-A pretty we'd ding was solemized by Rev. Boyle last evening at the home of Mr. R. H. Woolf, two and one-half miles east of town, when Miss Matte Evans became the bride of MT. Elmer Warren. The bride was beautifully gOwned in white liberty silk and carried a shower boquet of brides roses. They were at tended by Miss Katie Smith, sister of the bride and MT. Beales. The color scheme in the parlors and dining room was white and green, roses and chrys- anthemums being used in profusion. Immediately after the ceremony the guests repaired to the dining room where dainty refreshments were serv- ed Only the immediate friends and of the contracting parties were present. Both of the young peo- pie have a wide circle of friends. the bride being a native of Phoenix and the, groom being connected with the Phoenix Ice company for a num- Der of years. They were the recip- lents of many handsome presents. MT. and Mrs. Warren will be at home to their friends after Dec. 1, at 500 west Madison street.
