OF LOCAL INTEREST

NOT ELLYN-Sometime ago a man was extradited from the peni tentiary in Joliet believed to be Lew ellyn, who was wanted for the murder of two policemen in Denver several years ago. Llewellyn was a soldier having lived in Globe just before his enlistment in the 34th volunteers to serve in the Philippines. Sheriff Shanley of Globe was asked to go to Denver to identify him. He got as far at La Junta when he was informed that the suspect was not Llewellyn and that he had been taken back to Joliet.
 A COMING FLOOD-There will probably be more high water in both the Salt and Gila rivers very soon. Word reached here from Globe yes terday that it was raining there again and had been at it for twenty -four hours. No man had the nerve to guess when it would stop. Most of the water in the immediate vicinity of Globe falls into the Salt river but the rain seem ed to cover a wide area and a part of it would naturally flow into the tri- butaries of the Gila.
 A HANDY WEAPON-An Irishman and a fighting Mexican found them selves in the same cell of the county jail yesterday afternoon. They had not been there very long before the jail authorities became cogniZant that there was something doing out of the ordinary. An investigation developed that immediately after the Mexican was put in he organized a fight. He was not making much headway until he bethought himself of a weapon. He called for truce until he could remove one of his heavy hob nailed shoes with which he was battering the head of his cell mate when the jaiIor broke in.
 GLOBE IS HOPEFUL-After being cut of from the outside world for ten days the c. V. c. S. N. railroad com pany succeeded on Saturday in effect ing a transfer of passengers and mail over the washouts west of Geronimo and Monday the gaps were entirely closed and through train service re- sumed between Globe and Bowie. says the Silver Belt of Thursday. Mixed trains have been run, bringing in pas sengers, express and supplies urgent ly needed. The first train on Monday brought many passengers and two cars of delayed express matter. Carloads of flower, grain, hay, coal oil, gaso- line and other staple supplies have been received, besides several cars of mixed groceries, aud butter and eggs are again in plentiful supply. Regular freight trains are again running, and within a few days large arrivals of coke, oil and sulphide ore for the Old Dominion are expected. There are so many things of which the town is all most bare that it will take several weeks to reDlenish stocks. There is very little lumber in town and build ing is at a standstin. The old Do
 
 company is the greatest sufferer. There are probably 600 cars of coke, oil, sul- phide. lumber machinery, etc, for the company sidetracked at various points, and with other delayed freight to handle it will take the c. V. G. & N. several weeks yet to catch up.
 AS TO PATRIOTISM-Am man can't live under the folds of the American flag very long without becoming in fected to some extent with the bacili of American patriotism. There is something about American liberty, with all it's responsibilities and it's curtailment that looks good and feels good. The born American is apt to appreciate it less than those who come here from other lands and who can make comparisons from personal ex- perience and observation. There are flaw Americans who will refuse the musket when the nation calls but it is too much of truth that a large part of the native born hate to put them selves out during the humdrum of every day life, to keep up the organization necessary for military strength in time of a crisis. This observation is prompt ed by 2 remark of Colonel LeavelI adjutant general of the territory, made recently He said the Prescott youth had been talking about forming a company of the national guard for the last two or three years but for some reason they have not done so and the Chinese are now trying to beat them to :t He was a little surprised on the occasion of his last visit to Pres colt, to be approached by a Prescott citizen in behalf of the Chinese resi- dents of that city who are desirous of organizing a Chinese company and en-
