Miss Exell's Trial.

When the preliminary trial of Miss Alice EzelL the 17-year-old girl who shot and seriously wounded Emmett Finch at Jonesboro, thirteen miles south of Birmingham. was called this morning in the justice of the peace court of D. w. Houston, large and interested crowd of spectators was present. The court ordered every one to leave the court except those directly interested In the case and then wit nesses were placed under the rule
 Tn defendant through her attorney plead mot guilty by reason of insan- ity." There was objection to such a plea by the prosecuting attorney. who claimed Chat such a plea was only pre- sented before a trial by jury How ever. Judge Houston decided that every bit of the evidence could be brought out and that the insanity plea would be permitted also. Then the attorney for the prosecution asked for a con- tinuance in order that witnesses might be secured on the question of sanity.
 As will be remembered, Miss Ezell fired on Finch as he was riding by her home. She used double -barreled shotgun. One time the girl missed her aim, but the next time she was more accurate. At first 1t was feared that the wounds would pNove fatal, but Finch is out of danger. A continuance was granted. after some little argu- ment by the attorneys, until next Tues day morning.

Line Will Be Running Within Another
 Month
New Cars Expected To Be Here Before
 Christmas
(From Saturdays Daily.)


 Street cars will probably be running to Whipple Barracks by November l, according to the present rate of pro- gress.
 The work of grading was completed this week, and the track-laying has pro- eeeded as far as the cut, or about half of the distance of the extension to be made. This work is being done by the company itself under the supervision of an experienced man, and it is be- ing performed in a substantial and workmanlike manner.
 The copper wire for the overhead wire is on the ground, and most of the equipment. The frogs and some other appliances for the overhead system have been delayed in shipment, but it is expected that they will arrive in time, so that they can be used after the track-laying is fully completed.
 The new cars which President Wright has ordered for the Prescott & Mount Union railway will not be avail able when the formal opening of the roads extension is celebrated. Un- fortunately the manufacturers at St. Louis have been unable to complete the same at the date for which they were contracted, owing to an unforeseen rush of business. The street cars are the finest and most comfortable that have been sent to the west, and when they are finally placed in commission here, their appearance will give the city metropolitan aspect of which our citizens may well feel proud.
 Word has been received from the makers that the cars will be shipped about the first of November, and barr ing delays en route, they will be here in time to permit of the public to en- joy a holiday ride to the fort on Christmas Day.

BOWEN LIKELY TO STAND TRIAL
 FOR FORGERY.
(From Fridays Daily)

Whether Sam P. Bowen, the self-styl- ed man who is accused of passing fraudulent checks upon Robert Brow, will be tried upon a felony charge or for misdemeanor, will depend upon the result of the investigation that is be- ing made by the district attorneys of flee of the prisoners antecedents.
 If Bowen had simply signed his own name to the checks the severest punishment that could be meted out to him in case of conviction wOull be i'm prisonment in the county Jail. Such an offense constitutes simple misle- meanor.
 Bowen, however, it IS charged, went further and committed forgery in con nection with one of the drafts. Con vietion of that offense would mean a term in Yuma. The prosecuting officers, it is understood, are disinclined to try Bowen on the felony charge if this be his first offense. They understand that he has relatives in Phoenix and has resided in that city for some years. If this be found correct, and if it be fur ther learned that his record there has been a creditable one, it is possible that Bowen will be allowed to stand trial on the charge upon which he has been arraigned before Justice Talbot, that of misdemeanor. The district attorney is in communication with the Phoenix of fcers and upon the information that may be obtained from that source will hinge the fate of the man who is now behind the bars.
 Bowen cut a wide swath when he started on his check-juggling career in town. The same paper that he i'm posed upon Bob Brow he attempted to pass upon J. s. Gales, the harness man. Gales declined to accommodate his visitor. and as Bowen went out of the store he picked up pair of gold spec taeles which were lying upon the count CT. They cost Gales about S15. and besides being valuable, he needed them. Upon missing the glasses, he suspected that Bowen was the thief. and when he read that the man was arrested, he went to the county jail and demanded the surrender of the spectacles. He re- covered the property, and went his way rejoicing.

 The rabbi will deliver his sermon, at tired in a black robe, while around his shoulders will be draped a silk scarf of black and white stripes. The prayers will be conducted in the conservative orthodox spirit.

that it has not yet been recovered, and his right arm almost crushed from the bruised and battered trunk.
 The ghastly remains were placed on the overland Salt Lake train and brought to San Bernardino, Philip having taken the train at Daggett.
 ''I am under the impression that the train was running very slowly at the time of the accident" said the brother in telling of the accident. ''I do not believe that my brother was killed by the leap, although he must have been very much dazed. You see he jumped from the left hand side of the train, and when the body was found it was un- der the rail at the right hand side of the track, and that it was then that he was struck by freight train coming down the steep grade and at great speed"

TO PROTECT TRACK
 EAST OF NEEDLES.

The Santa Fe engineers are studying the question of track protection near milepost 575, three miles east of Needles. where the road has suffered from the inroads made by the flood wa ters of the Colorado river during the past three years, says the Needles Eye. The waters have so far encroached as to place the present roadbed at the i'm mediate foot of the gravel bluffs and the further cncroachment of the waters of the river means an extraordinary ex- pense of grading and repair in case of the flood washing. It has been pro- posed that wing dams be built that the current of the river may be thrown to- wards the Arizona side of the river. The exact result of the engineers in- vestigations is not known, but the en- eroachment of the waters of the Colo rado river a few miles east of the Needles is such as to make its consid- eration a serious one with the engineers of the company.

Tragic End Of Insane Englishman At
 Cajon Pass
Both Legs Cut Off And Body Ground To
 Pulp
(From Saturdays Daily.)

1NAA
 One of the most dreadful accidents that has ever occurred on the Santa Fe, took place between Barstow and San Bernardino, when Charles Malpers, an Englishman, in a fit of insanity threw himself from the ear window of swift moving Santa Fe train, No. ?, and was ground to pieces.
 Charles Malpers' brother, who is a seafaring man, living in British Col umbia, sent for Charles in the hope that change of climate would do him good. Recently Philips health failed, and he conceived the idea that tour of South ern California would prove beneficial, both to himself and to his sick brother
 Philip, however, was sadly disap- pointed in noting that his brother's in sanity was becoming marked, and he finally decided that he would take Char les back to his home in old England. Tickets were accordingly purchased to New York, whence the brothers in- tended to take ship for home.
 In Cajon Pass Philip left his brother s side for a few moments to get some thing from his grip. While opening his grip he heard a slam, but thought little of it. But when he returned to his seat he missed the insane man.
 The conductor was appealed to and search of the train was made, but Charles was still missing. The win dow by the seat he had occupied was opened, and the brother was at last forced to the horrible conclusion that Charles in a fit of violent insanity, had leaped from the train.
 Philip was carried to Barstow, where he left the train, and telegrams were soon burning the wires. At last Chas. Malpers was found on the track, both of his legs cut off, his head ground to a pulp, his left arm gone in such shape

TERRITORIAL FAIR ASSURED
 GOOD WEATHER.
(From Fridays Daily) Communicated

The Arizona Fair, being held in the winter season will no doubt appear strange to many people who are not fla miliar with the climatic conditions that exist in Phoenix. In order to show that no mistake has been made in the selection of the date for holding the first annual fair, the local weather bureau observer, Mir. Jesunofsky, was called upon for data concerning the weather conditions during the last ten years, and the following has been furnished:

A Severe Storm.

A severe storm visited this section on Thursday, with rain almost continu ously from 4 p. m. until the morning of the 29th, making it impossible to con tinue grading or surface work for at least two or three days.
Weekly Arizona journal-miner., 1905-10-04

During this period of ten years of
 these dates, there were three days class
 ed as ''rainy' and the rainfall of the
 three days amounted to .97 of an inch.
 Therefore we may reasonably expect
 good weather for the "Big Show"
 The educational department of the
 fair will be in charge of Prof. A. J.
 Mathews, principal of the Tempe Nor
 nal School. A large part of the ex- hibit made at the St. Louis Exposition
 has been kept and will be exhibited in
 this department, and as much addi- tional work will be secured as possible. The fair, coming as it does near the be- ginning of the school term, will make it difficult to secure the best exhibit, unless the county superintendents and teachers get actively at work. The fair management feels that the school system of the territory is an excellent one, and it should be represented as its importance deserves, and it also hopes that Prof. Mathews will have hearty cooperation.
 H. c. Lockett, of Flagstaff, has been appointed superintendent of the sheep and goat department of the fair. As the sheep men of the northern part of the territory drive their focks down here in the early winter it will be con venient for them to attend the fair and a good exhibit of this leading indus try is promised.
 The race program that has been pre- pared for fair week is up to the high standard set by the largest race meet races for trotters and pacers, and nine for runners, with total of $l3,OOO to be contested for. Classes are provid- ed for all kinds of horses, and the lib eral amount of money offered will sat isfy horse owners outside the terri tory that we are determined to h ave only the best, and that our first annual territorial fair is bound to be grand success. The speed department is being widely advertised all over the country, and the fact that horsemen generally appreciate our liberal purses is proved by the fact that several own CTS of fast horses have written from Pennsylvania and New York to say that they expect to bring their horses to take part in our races. The same in formation has been received from sev- eral other states; so it seems the whole | country will contribute many of its best horses to make the fair a success. Arrangements are also being made to secure the attendance of several of i special exhibitions or races. Our new tracks will be very fast by fair time, and with the many high class horses that will compete it is certain that a great many fast records will be made, and there will be a week of good, clean horse racing that will be a treat. AL ready there are about thirty horses sta bled at the track, and it is getting to be busy place. Work on the grand stand, like the stables, will be the equal of any in the country for appearance and comfort. Both the mile and half mile tracks are fully completed, and all horsemen who see them agree that they will be as fast and as safe as the best n the country.
