Team Runs Six Blocks Without Causing
 Damage
Travelled On Sidewalk And Cleared All
 Trees
(From Saturdays Dsily.)

(From Saturdays Daily.)
 What was in the finish declared to be the warmest runaway of the midsum- mer season occurred yesterday after noon, and the wood delivery wagon owned by Thompson, made one of the fastest trips during its local record. The team pulling this vehicle started somewhere about the plaza, and was apparently attempting to make a road record when it passed along Cortez street. In running toward the depot the runaway animals misunderstood in- struetions. One wanted to turn the corner at the De Mund lumber yard, and the other objected. The result was a compromise, and the pair then took the sidewalk. for their course, incidentally demolishing awnings and signs that happened to be in their way.
 How they passed a row of trees and other Instructions is a wonder to all who saw them, and when they reached the depot they were still running free without as much as a broken tug. Here they veered to the west, starting along the track for the trestle over Granite creek, but before they arrivd there they again made a new move, running at full speed down the steep incline into the foot of Montezuma street. They made this dangerous part of their journey without accident, and in try ing to frighten everyone along Mon- tezuma street, failed of wind, slowed down, and were easily caught. Be cause of their dangerous route, and the fact that no one was injured, and the outfit entirely free from damage, the run is declared to be a record breaker for the summer.

All day and till midnight Inc old man received his relatives ani friends, as they came in almost end less proc ,sS;on. Entirely unnecessary to note, Patriarch Johnson is a dis ciple of Joseph Smith and his isit- ors comprised practically the entire membership of Maricopa Stake of Zion of the Church of Latter Day Saints. At the evening gathering at the Johnson residence Bishop Frank T. Pomeroy was chairman and the principal speaker, excluding the hon ored host, was Stake President C.. r. flakes. There was a program of songs and addresses and prayers and among the presents brought were of ferings from each of fifty or more children present, descendants of the patriarch.
 Though no very strong emphasis IS put upon the fact. it is understood that Patriarch Johnson was the husband of seven wives, number of them still surviving. He came to Arizona Tn 1882. settling with several of his fa- miles in Tempe. There was eonsid- erable of tribal strength of the John sons even at that time.

Arrest of Ross Grewell And Mexican
 Charley
One Of The Prisoners Has Been Before In
 Trouble
(From Saturdays Daily.)

Ross Grewell and Mexican Charley arrived here yesterday from Phoenix in the custody of Sheriff Lowry and Sheriff Walker of Maricopa county. They are alleged to be horse thieves, and there are several complaints against them from residents of this county who have related their sus- picions to Sheriff Lowry.
 The prisoners were arraigned yester- day afternoon before Justice Talbot, and their preliminary hearing was fix ed for this afternoon at o'clock, when full details of the alleged crime will be brought out.
 The accused pair arrived in Phoenix the other day with lot of horses, which they had driven from this county. They put them in Helms pasture on Grand avenue. Soon after a deputy sheriff visited the place with an at- tachment for one of the horses and a saddle. This was a civil proceeding.
 The attachment was made and the property was taken to Phoenix. The next night an order for the arrest of Grewell and the Mexican came, and the former was taken into custody. At that time Grewell said that he had inspectors certificates in his possession. However, he could not show them, al though he had a certificate for a horse which was not in his possession.
 It is not known that Grewell was ever in trouble before, but the Va vapai authorities regard the Mexi- can as an accomplished horse and cat tie thief. He has been on trial sew eral times but the territory always fell little short of conviction.
 Grewell is well known throughout the territory. He was one of the ae tive participants in the famous Tewks- bury and Graham Tonto Basin war.
 The defendants are represented by Attorneys Ross and O'Sullivan.

Did Not Expect To Be Appointed
 Receiver
Other Land Office Job Is Somewhat In
 Doubt
(From Saturdays $ Daily.)


 The dispatch received by the Journal Miner of the appointment of Register F. S. Hildreth to be the receiver of the consolidated land office at Phoenix, was the first news which that official received of the action taken by Presi- dent Roosevelt.
 The news was decided surprise to him, for he was an applicant for the position of register, and he had been promised the place by the President himself. There is a possibility that there may have been an error made by the correspondent at Washington, but evidently the same dispatch was re- ceived at Los Angeles, for MT. Hill dreth yesterday received a telegram from his father-in-law, J. C. Martin, who is a resident of the City of An gels, congratulating him upon his ap- pointment as receiver.
 The exact facts will not be known until an official communication is re- ceived by mail from Washington, and this will also determine whether it is J. NJ. W. Moore, receiver at Prescott, who has been appointed as register at Phoenix or Milton R. Moore, the pre- sent register at Tucson. The press dispatches read William R. Moore, and yet it is surprising that he should be the appointee, in view of the fact that he has expressly declared that he did not want the position. He is ad- vanced in years, and desires to retire from the active duties of life.
 SurveyorGeneral Ingalls, has made no selection yet of quarters for the Phoenix land office. He has been in terviewed by numerous property own CTS and real estate agents. but he has offered no indications of his intentions even if he has given any site eonsidera- tion. He will probably issue circu- lar inviting real estate men to call upon him at a certain time, and pre- sent the advantages they are prepared to offer the government.

Mrs. Parr, mother of the young
man condemned to be banged in this
city two weeks from today, called on
Gov. Hayward yesterday morning
and made an appeal for clemency for
her son. Gov. Hayward informed
her that no reasons have been pre-
sented to show why be should ln-
terfere with the sentence, and be
cannot take ac'ion in the matter
unless some good reason should be
tfered.

pointed Paris counsel by the court,
