CASE OF cATTLE LIFTINe-Dep-

UT OA GG LIT lNS-lJtp- uty Sherin Perry Sears came in yes terJay with an old prospector by the name of Henry Brown, charged with cattle stealing. The deputy sheriff had a hard and long ride finding his man under the Four Peaks. X good deal of complaint had been previously made against Brown by cattlemen in his neighborhood. He had at one time owned a few cattle but some time ago he sold all of them, but cattlemen continued to find a good many bones in the vicinity of his habitation. He was never caught in the act of stealing an animal until this time and the evi- dence was so conclusive that a com plaint was sworn out. After he was brought to the jail yesterday Brown admitted that he had killed Q calf but he said he had to do it for there was nothing else available for food in the part of the world where he lived.
 PERFORMING ED-Mrs. May French Cooley has received re- peated requests to repeat the perform ance given at the First NJ. F. church last Thursday night, at the Doris opera house. As will be remembered the entertainment consists of the pre- sentatiOn of the principal scenes from the two popular books. Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch and LOvey Mary. The scenes were dramatized by Mrs. Cooley and Miss Alethia Hamilton of this city. and are as realistic and life like as they could be. For the reason that some of those who assist her in the performance will leave the city in few days, 1t Is necessary to give it on Tuesday night, the only open date at the Doris before their departure. The time is short therefore for advertising the event and those desiring to see this clever little entertainment should bear in mind that it Is to be on Tuesday night, more specifically the night of election day. But the election will all be over then and the people ready for a little relaxation.
 BOARD OF TRADE ACCESSlONS The Phoenix and Maricopa county board of trade is looking up and an eff fort is being made to increase the active membership. This special work is being undertaken vigorously by the new board Of directors and last week ten names were added as follows: W. II. Ward. W. K. James, William \. Giles, J. L. Irwin, Phoenix, Artificial Stone C. Cement Co., Welch & Haze man. Thomas Wallin, Arizona Hard ware S Vehicle Co. Webster Street. Lamson Business college. But that Is only a little start in the right direc- ton. Every member of the board should get out and hustle for new members and every thoughtful citizen who is interested in the town and county should hustle himself in and offer his membership. There ought to be 900 or 300 new names added to the roll of that organization in the next few weeks for there are hundreds in the city who should be interested and their cooperation will be welcomed There is no organization in the terri
 tory that has done as much for this city and county or perhaps for the ter TitOry at large, as has that body and It Is entitled ,J -hc support of all citl zens. Some may have an idea that their membership is not wanted unless they are large property owners or leading business men. but if so they are in error. The board is the one bust ness organization in the city in which there is positively no politics or any other issue except the best business in terest of this county first and secondly the territory at large. By it's previous good work it has been accepted as q pattern by most Of the towns of the territory who have organized similar boards. The good work of the Phoenix
