RESTORED TO REASON
The Curious Story of Reyaolds, the
 ProspeCtor.

Reynolds. the man who was arrest
 ed near Peoria on Saturday for insan- l ity, recovered his reason yesterday morning and was released. He told a | curious story He said that he remem- ] bered nothing that had happened after i Thursday morning and that he had | only the vaguest recollection of his ex- perience since the night before. On l Saturday night he began to recover his
 mind and on Sunday there was a steady improvement of his condition Yesterday morning beyond the confu- sion which would follow an experience Of that kind, he was all right.
 He said that he is a prospector and left Prescott last Tuesday to go to Florence where he is quite we'll ac-
 quainted. He is a miner and has some
 property somewhere in Yavapai coun- ty though he would not say precisely where it was but he spent yesterday
 morning in making 9 drawing of his
 camp and the surroundings. He said
 that when he left Prescott he had S1SO.
 He arrived at McCabe on Tuesday
 night. He went to saloon and though he is not a drinking man he took two drinks of beer and later in the evening he accepted the invitation of stranger to have a drink of whis- ky. He said he did not like the looks of the whisky and that he poured out very little of it. He felt no intoxication then or at any other time. The next morning he left for Richenbar where he spent Wednesday night. He remem- bers very indistinctly of leaving Rich enbar the next morning. From that mo- ment until he was brought. into the office of the sheriff on Saturday night his life was a blank.
 When he got so he could speak in telligently yesterday and could grasp the story of his experiences at Peoria he became alarmed and said he hoped that he had done no one any harm. His money was all gone. He does not know whether he was robbed or lost it in the course of his wanderings. He remembered that he had spent fifty cents at McCabe but so far as he knows he did not spend any anywhere else. He did buy rope at Peoria for the horse which he got of William Hood but Reynolds knows nothing about the horse or Peoria or Hood.
 It will be remembered that the horse was a stray which Hood had for two years without being able to find the owner. The animal had several brands and Reynolds before seeing it describ- ed two of them. How he knew Hood had stray horse is a mystery for Reynolds said that he had never lost 6 horse. had never heard tkat Hood had a stray horse and that he had never even heard of Hood.
 Reynolds says that though he is temporarily broke" he is not yet in hopeless poverty. for he has some gold dust hidden out at his camp.

TRANSPARENT PEOPLE-There are some very transparent people but none as transparent as our glassware. Just work your optics on some of the glassware in our west window. The ware is the best in quality and the prices are right at DavidsonS Cash Store.
 coLD-BLoODED PEoPLE-There are some very cold-blooded people but we think there are none in Phoenix so cold-blooded but what they may be still cooler living in the home where cooking is done on an Insurance Gas Oline Stove or a Standard Wickless Blue Flame Oil Stove either of which is absolutely safe and about as cheap as wood to operate. See them at Da- wilson's cash store.

 WEATHER PROPHECY-We pro phecy that the weather will be warm this summer in Phoenix and of course ice is nice in Phoenix about that time. Keep it in an ice box or water cooler such as Davidson keeps. Freeze your cream in the Wonder Freezer at Davidson's. Drink your lemonate out of glasses bought at Davidson's and crack your ice with an ice pick bought at Davidson's.
 PECULIARITIES OF PHOENIX GIRLS-One of the peculiarities of the Phoenix girl is that she likes a hammock. Another peculiarity is that she likes a hammock with a capacity for two (providing he is agreeable.) Her third peculiarity is that the ham mock must be pretty, and last but not least, the Phoenix girl likes to buy hammock cheap. We can suit the Phoenix girl in all these qualities. First, hammock; second, hammOclIs for two Gall in one hammock); third, ham mocks beautiful; fourth, hammocks cheap. Now girls we will furnish the hammocks. You rustic the money and the young man.

Washington Letter.

President Roosevelt iu effect
cast a bonbinto the great railway
camp in, Washington by his de
clauata0ns ma speech, made in
Denver, on the subject OF railway
legislation. i'm effect, the Presi-1
dent said, The railroads of the
country have superseded the old

are to say the only highways Of
commerce. They are public high
Ways and t.rnNst be administered
for tbs best interests of the whole
people or not primarily, to yield
the greatest profits ito the stock
holders. They are, controlled by
great corporations, frequently by
a uOttibiNeof several cgTeat cor
porationswhich are all powerful
and WHICH have the private, citi-
zen at their meicy. Now the
federal goveRumeut must - for
the state cannot - exercise a
supervisory and regulatory tunc-
ton over the great corporations
which practically control the
great highways ,btoammerce.

The opinion has been widely
expressed and some correspond

Washington to the,effect that the
Senate committee on Interstate
Copmerce has agreed ION va ppro-
grainlne for next sessions of legls-
lation@hich meets with the en4ire
approval of the railroad men for
the reason, that it includes only
such ,aspPlification of the anti
rebate law as would make rebates,
in whatever form they Nwere
granted, illegal. The railway
men oppose all rebates for the
simple reason that thes are grant
ed only where the, roads dare not
refuse them aud that they ulater-
tally diminish the profits of the
railroads. The reports sent out
from Washington, ,Went so far as
TO assert that the President had
agreed to the. programme outlined
bv Senator Elkins' committee.
Your correspondent has consist
emily refused to- accept this report
as trre, although ille has been
