/ HE WAS GIVEN A CHANCE
| James Ford. an old man, was before
! Justice Burnett yesterday on the
! charge of having offended the peace
and dignity of the precinct the night
before. In consequence of his age and
! his promise to do better in the future
| judgment was suspended.
| AN ARIZONA SWIMMER-Mrs
| w. G. PendIetOn and daughter re-
turned to the city yesterday after an
| absence since June 80. They spent the
greater part of the time abroad at
Coronado Tent City. They visited
Los Angeles and other points farther
up the coast. While at Coronado the
little Miss Pendleton acquired the
! swimming championship for the thir-
teen year old class. Her last perfor-
nance before leaving was to swim a
distance of 800 yeards, which is not
bad for an Arizona girl. There is not
much in this territory thar inclines
one toward aquatic habits.
AFTER RSES-Charles J. George
of Los Angeles. an uncle Of H. I. La
than and for many years an operator
in Arizona mines spent yesterday in
the city. He came down from Yavapai
county where ne has been for the last
three weeks looking after his mining
interests. He is operating the Poland
extension. the Lincoln property and
others. A force of men is employed on
the Poland extension and also on the
Lincoln from which ore is being ship
ped to the Ell Paso smelter and will
later be shipped to the new smelter
under construction at Val Verde. His
visit mere yesterday was to buy horses
to be used in freighting the ore from
the Lincoln mine to the railroad. Mr.
George left last night for his home in
Los Angeles.
THE END OF A MOUNTAIN TRIP
M. c. Cook. V. L. Cook and Stacey
Copeland returned yesterday from q
trip in the Mogollons where they put
in the time hunting and fishing. They
were accompanied on the outward
journey by Frank Hildebran. who re
turned several days ago on horseback.
His companions brought the wagon
and equipment back with them but
they came near not doing it. When
they left Tempe yesterday morning
they were warned of the perilOus river
crossing but they were so anxious to
reach home that they determined to
try it anyhow. Midway in the stream
the wagon came to a Standstill and
was threatened with capsizing. A
hOrseman rode in, rOped the outfit and
brought it 20 the hither shore.
A BADGER CAMEL was literally
so or it would have been if there had
really been a badger. L was arranged
at the Ford hotel barroOm. 1t was
given out that there would be a fight
between a badger and Don the big
St. Bernard, and everybody got excit-
ed and wanted to bet. Several sums
of money were put up. aggregating
about 800. The betters nearly got
into a fight among themselves over
the choice of a referee. it being con-
tended that no man who had money
on the contest was qualified to act
But everybody was on one side or the
other. The matter of the referee was
finally adjusted when an objection was
made to the pitting of the good ma
tuTed though big Don" against a
fierce badger. But the hour for the
fight had arrived and the crowd fol-
lowed the promoters into the rear
where there was disclosed a box into
which a chain entered. Don shifted
at the box and the crowd /
got on top Of chairs and tables to be
out Of the reach of the ferocious bad !
ger. At length one of the promoters
carefully removed the lid from the box
forth something that would
not bite Don" or any of the numer-
Gus gentlemen perched on the tables |
and chairs.
