criminal court has taught him Il
great deal concerning the cause OF

crime in ST. Louis last year was trace

he also says the State of Missouri
would save $4,000 year in criminal
court costs alone il statute such
IS ne suggested were passed.
Not long ago eromo. the we]l-knoWn
district attorney of New York city,
earnestly advocated the passage Of a
law in his state against the revolver
habit.
Many eminent lawyers and crimi'
nologist might be quoted along the
same line.

The man behind the gun in the time
OF peace ii a misnomcr. There is no
excuse for his carrying artillery. Tht

to do SO as long as the present lax

GOOD BASEBALL GAME.

Douglas, Ariz., Oct. 9.-(Special)-
 That game of ball between the of fee force of the Copper Queen shelter and the men ccnected with the store, which was played yesterday, furnished a barrel of amusement for a big crowd of spectators.
 Before the game began one could not get standing room in the grand stand, while the grounds held a goodly overflow The game was a slugging match from start to finish, some of the best batting in the history of the game in Douglas being pu up by both sides.
 But the batting was the only fea- ture, save the fact that the score is said to have been A to 26, g to 25, 28 to 29, and almost any other old score you please. No official scorer was ap- pointed, and this mix-up seems to have gone so far as to leave the identity of the winning side in doubt. But it was a good friendly game played for fun and clean sport, and in every way in tended it was success.

GOING FOR RILEY's BODY.


 Douglas, Ariz., Oct. 9.-(Special)-
 Dr. A. c. Wright, Charles Gun ningham and Andy Tong of Bisbee and Julio Schimmer of Sa- huaripa, Sonora, left this afternoon to finish the work begun by s. L. Riley, when the latter was killed near Ia pachi a short time ago The party is heavily armed and provisioned for a month. and will not only conclude. the work of getting options, which was Mir. Riley's object on his last journey. but will take steps to make the identi. ficatiOn of the body absolute, so that the widow can collect a life insurance policy in the Ancient Order of United Workmen, and will also try to make arrangements to have the body brought to Douglas for burial
 Dr. Wright, wAo was Riley's part ner in the mining ventures in Sonora, and who is the leader of the present party, said today:
 There will be no trouble in identi flying the body if it is really Riley, and of that there can be no doubt. Riley has three marks which will identify him, no matter how greatly the body has decomposed. One is some pc culiar bridge work in his upper jaw, another is a broken bone in his hand which never knit properly, leaving protruding bone which was visible whenever his Land moved, and the third is a break in the left knee joint which caused lis leg to bend inward and made him slightly lame in con sequence.
 The mines which Riley went to get are in the Ch'pos mountains in the Sahuaripa district, about seventy five miles south of Moctezuma. They are know as the Manuel. Columbia and San Gabrial. and are on property adjoining the famous COdena de Co., bra company's Mines. Riley and had worked six months making a sale of these mines to an eastern syndicate, and the affair was all arranged. Riley, when he went to his death, was journeying to Sahuaripa to make the final papers in the transfer. He never reached the place and I am going now to complete the deal, as well as to make the identification of the body and try to arrange for it's removal to the states.
 As for the latter. we shall bring that body out if we have to go to Washington to get action. My partner shall not remain in an unmarked grave in that canyon where he was found. And I shall also try to arouse the officers in that district to take steps to apprehend bis murderers. He died and was found with a rope wound several times about his chest, and it is believed he was strangled. Of course, he was lassoed from behind, if the rope story is true"
