 Sheriff Harry Henderson spent yesterday in the city on business from the county seat. To see the way he and Page went around town together one might bsent-mindedly think we were in the throes of an other political campaign.

 It is not the intention of the NEWS to "butt into" something that does not concern us, but the statement of Rabbit Bros. found elsewhere .is food for reflection. In their notice it is stated that hereafter their store will be closed on Sundays. This we believe to be a good move and if it is followed out by all our mer- chants none would be the loser. Every one who works for a living should have one day in seven for rest and recreation, and if given that their services during the week are always more valuable. No man can work seven days week for any length of time and do justice to either himself or his employer. Oi course, if all closed our people would adapt themselves to the change and make their purchases the day before, and the fact that the stores are closed to the genera public need not imply that the merchant would refuse to accommo date customer if necessary.

RANGER IS
 GUN HANDY

S scrape occurred in Williams the particulars of which are as follows, as near as we can learn: Reuben Neill, a member of the Arizona Rangers had arrived in the city a day or so before and Sunday night while in one of the saloons saw a Mexican with a gun on him. As he stated to us, he did not care to "butt into" local affairs so he went to Constable Chas. Adams and told him of the fact and said he would go with Adams and they could re- ieye the "hombre" of the weapon. By that time the man had left the saloon so they followed him up Railroad avenue and when they ar rived near Mathews lodging house called to the man that they were officers and for him to stop. The man backed out into the street and they told him again they were off. cers and they wanted him. It was very dark there in the shadow of the building and the Mexican pulled his gun and fired at Neill. the bull let barely missing him, while Ad- ans, who was a little in advance, had his face slightly powder burned. The second after the Mexican had fired Rube pulled his gun and shot. His bullet taking effect in the pelvis bone and ranging around through the hip came out at the back. The man fell, and Rube, who was blinded by the flash of his gun, took another shot at where he thought the man should be Know. ing him to be wounded, and think ing him desperate, the two officers retreated few steps and in the dark the Mexican made his escape and stole around on Fourth street where he entered the yard of the Thomas property and was leaning against the fence in the dark when the officers appeared and were told by Spence Dingle where the man was. Spence had been awakened by the shots as had Herbert Dodge The man was taken into custody and later taken to the hospital where his wound was dressed.
 The Mexican, whose name is Christobar Yguto, says that while he was in the saloon he noticed a man watching him closely, and after he had left there he saw the man and another one whom he did not know following him. When they called to him to stop he thought they were going to hold him up, so he got out into the street and when they kept crowding him thought only of self protection, and pulling his gun, fired.
 Looking at the question from an unbiased standpoint there is no question that the Mexican was vio- lating the law in carrying a gun and that the officers were trying to do their duty in relieving him of it. Yet, at the same time, the arrest should have been made in the sa- loon where he was first seen with the gun. It looks as if the officers made a mistake in allowing the man to walk couple of blocks on his way home and then try to hold him up for the gun in the dark. As a matter of fact, even though they told him they were officers, not knowing them, he could not know they meant him no harm. and un- der the conditions of the attempted arrest in the dark we do not blame the man for shooting, as we would probably have done the same thing under similar circumstances.
 District Attorney Ashurst was here Wednesday to look into the matter, and it is likely that the grand jury will be asked to make an investigation.
 As yet it is not an assured fact

 Harry c. Hibben, as clerk of the board of supervisors, returned Thursday evening from Prescott where he had gone for the purpose of interviewing the Yavapai county board relative to the taxes that are due that county from Coconino. AS stated in an article on the first page that county had filed suit for the recovery of the money and MT. Hibben, so we learn, has been able to effect a compromise. The amount claimed originally was $3,596 for the grazing of sheep in that county during the past five years. This, we learn, MT. Hibben was able to compromise for the sum of $1,75O.- CA. It was much better to compro- mise the case than to allow it to come up in court.

Managing A Husband.

The methods which wemen adopt
in managing husbands vary with
the characters of the individuals To
be guided. To illustrate of this
here is short story:
Two women, Mrs. A. and Mrs.
B., were talking together one day
with some friends over a cup of tea,
when the subject of managing hus-
bands came up. Each of these two
wives boasted that she could make
husband do exactly what she liked.
A spinster who was present, Miss
o., denied the truth of this state
ment, and this led to high words, in
the course of which it was agreed
that each wife should prove her
power by making her husband drive
her on particular afternoon In a
hired carriage TO an appointed place
which we will call Edmonton.
The test was considered a good
one because the two husbands were
individuals inclined TO economy,
who, in the ordinary course of
evnts, would never think of hiring
a carriage or driving anywhere, ex.
cepting in bus to the city. Mrs.
A. was a strong minded, determin-
ed woman, and as Mr.. A. was meek
and gentle no one doubted, there
fore, Mrs. A. could get what she
wanted. But Mr.. b. was an argu.
mentative, contradictory. wilful
pugnacious individual, while Mrs.
B. was sweet and good. 1t was OK.
pected that Mrs. B. would have 10
own herselfdefeated. However, the
day arrived and the hour, the un-
believing spinster repaired to the
spot, and up drove the two husbands
with their wives, sitting in state by
their sides.
How did you manage it?" said
Miss G. Oh said Mrs. A., Il
simply said TO my husband, Mr.. A.
| wish you to hire a carriage and
drive me to Edmohton.' He said,
'Verv well, my dear, but L and
here ] am"
And how did you manage 1t,
Mrs. B.?" Mrs. B. was unwilling 70
confess, but at length she did so.
Il said TO my husband, I think Mr..
and Mrs. A. are very extravagant;
they are going TO hire o carriage
and pair tomorrow and drive TO
Edmonton. why should they not
do so il they like?' said Mr.. B. oh,
no reason at all, my dear, IL you
think il right and II they can afford
il; but we could not do anything o
that kind, OF course. Besides, ]
fancy Mr.. A. is more accustomed to
driving than you are "A. is nota
all more accustomed TO il than am,
said Mr.. b., and can afford i,
quite as well as he. Indeed, / will
prove that | can and will, for / will
hire a carriage and drive there al
the same time Very well, my
dear. If you think so; but | should
not like to go with you, / should
feel so ashamed Then | wish you
TO go with me, Mrs. B. / insist
upon you accompanying me- So,
said the quiet Mrs. B., that is the
way l manage Mr.. b."
Neither OF these women is to be
congratulated on her method of man.
agement. Each despised her hus.
band, and what sort OF basis is scorn
for happiness in married life? If a
mans own wife does not believe in
him, and look up TO him, and admire
him. and like him better than any
one else. poor man, who else will:
