thing Of a certain young man who has
neither genius for art nor a talent
for work. A few days ago the head of
the school received letter from the
young mans father, a hard headed,
successful business man, saying,
among other pertinent things:
Il am afraid my son is not cut out

have brought some Of it to the surface
by this time. But so far as. know
he has thus far painted only one por-

other day, though 1t is presumably
that of a man old enough to raise
beard The landscape is little bet

pretty good-so good, indeed, 1t
tempts me to think that, with the
right experience, my son might in
time become fairly goo' journeyman
fence painter, and possibly even ar
rive at last at the dignity Of standing
on a ladder and spreading the first
coat on house. Under these circum.
stances, unless you have department
for instruction in fence and house
painting. think it would be better
for my son to try some other sort o.
school for awhile"

JUVENILE DEPRAvITY IN ITALY
Criminal Parents and Wretched
Homes Chiefly to Flame.

Consul Britain of Ke.ll, Germany,
furnishes So e STARTLING statistics on
juvenile crime in Italy, taken from an
article recently published and written
by Limo Ferriani. He says that so per
cent Of the C Id criminals of Italy are
manufactured by bad environment
and inadequate education-in other
words, by preventable causes; that 80
per cent of the criminals of the coun-
try are minors and of these IS per
cent are thieves.
Prof. Ferriani protests against SEN
timental description, but pleads for
scientific investigation. He has close
ly studied 500 boy priso- ers between
the ages of II and 1, and reports that
more than half of them came from
the most wretched homes, and over
200 had criminal parents. Very few
had ever done any work, all were SEX
ually corrupt, nearly All smoked, and
many had taste for alcohol.
AS a proof of how little good Is ef-
fected by mere instruct n apart from
moral training, he asserts that the
best scholars were among the worst
offenders. AS an alternative to prison
the author proposes agricultural COL
onies in districts where the air is
bracing, with good food and outdoor
work, kindly discipline, and the super
vision Of an experiene d physician.

Marriage in the States.

Owing to the numerous and diverp-
ent divorce laws in America a curious
state of things can easily exist. You
may divorce your wife in Arizona.
But as you travel in the same train
with her to New York she is your
wife still-now and then, and for an
hour or two at time. Unless Won
get the conductor of the train to call
the state frontiers and read the local
code, you cannot be certain whether
you are bound or free.

POISONED
 BUT HOW?
Death of E. Sunderland
 In CORVulSiOnS
The Only Drug He Was Known to Have Taken Was Oainine-The Pug zled Jury.

E. Sunderland of 3O1 Polk street, the we'll known contractor. died yesterday morning. presumably of strychnia poisoning. There was a natural report that death was caused nv suicide. but there is little in connection with the affair except the fatal name of strych- mia to suggest suicide.
 About 9 o'clock Drs. Wylie and Craig were summoned to attend MT. Sunder- land, who was in convulsions but con- scious The symptoms indicated the presence of strychnia and the physi- cians asked the patient what he had taken He replied that he had talk en two three grain capsules of quinine and nothing else In less than three quarters of an hour he was dead and Acting Coroner Burnett was sum moned
 It was disclosed at the inquest that MT. Sunderland, who was suffering of a bad cold had brought home the evening before an envelope containing three capsules of Quinine. He took one of them at once and spent the evening at home, reading until nearly midnight. When he arose yesterday morning ne was cheerful and said that he was feeling much better. Sometime after breakfast he took the two remaining capsules and lay down upon the sofa to read the morning paper. A half hour later ne was seized with convul

He makes a speciality of sanitary engi- neerlng. such as laying pipe and mak- ing sewerage connections, and guaran- tees his work to be in accordance win the specifications of the contract.
 A department to which special at tention has been given in recent years is that devoted to the pump and water business. Irrigation in Phoenix and the valley is essential to the culti- vation of crops and gardens and even lawns, and in the way of pumping ma chinery, MT. Evans carries a line that is appropriate for any use, from that of an insignificant two-hOrse power en- zine for raising water for domestic uses to the largest size of modern pumps. capable of throwing a stream of water that will irrigate a 1000 acre ranch.
 Since establishing himself in busi- ness in Phoenix away back in 1889, Mir. Evans has been awarded some nota- ble contracts in the lines in which he is engaged. Many of the finest resi- dences and most imposing office build ings were Included in the list of those upon which he worked.
 MT. Evans is still in the prime of life and personally superintends all the work turned out of his shop. He is practical man in every sense of the word, and belongs to that class of bus mess men who keep thoroughly abreast of the times. It is business houses of this class which have given PhOeniX the reputation of being one of the most thoroughly representative cities in the entire Southwest. Strangers remark the completeness of every detail MT. Evans. since casting his fortunes with this city, has guarded its interests most liberally, and is ever prompt in acting for the public good.

CAPTAIN GEORGE D. cHRIsrY.

In Captain George D. Christy the
 people of Phoenix well appreciate an
 attorney of the rising type. His work
 has been especially along the lines of
 corporation and irrigation law, in
 which he has acquired large informa-
 ton and mas had broad experience.
 He has offices in the Fleming block,
 well situated with respect to the
 courts. Captain Christy is a native of
 Iowa, born in Osceola, September 24,
 1869. His father was Col. William
 Christy, one of the best beloved of
 Arizonans. who for years. till his death
 couple of years ago. was president
 of the Valley Bank of Phoenix, serving
 also as territorial treasurer and as
 chairman of the republican territorial central committee. In Iowa, also, Colonel Christy was a banker. in Des Moines, and there he served two terms as state treasurer. The son reached a high school education in the schools of Des Moines, then came to Arizona with his father. In 1890 he graduated from the University of Southern Cali fornia at Los Angeles, with the degree
 of bachelor of science. For a while
 thereafter he engaged in the cattle business in the Salt River valley. his thoughts turned to the law. He spent l d COuDie DI years III IIle law depart
 ment of Harvard college, but in 1898 returned at the outbreak of the Span- 1 ish-American war. His father had been a soldier of the civil war, serving with high honors. It was natural that | the son should likewise volunteer in

 regiment. Mustered out with his reg 1 iment in February of 1899, the fall of | the same year saw him back at his legal studies at Harvard. Owing to | the illness of his father he returned | to Arizona the next year. He was | then admitted to the bar and has
 practiced continuously since that { time. Captain Christy has been active | in political affairs and even has been close to nomination in the territorial i republican convention for the office of { delegate in congress. He served as an alternate delegate at the national con- ventiOns of his party in St. Louis and Philadelphia and has done effective ! service as a member of the local com ! mittees of his party.

INDIANS CIVILIZED.

After the dissolution os tAa tribal organization of the Cherokees, Chick asaws, choctaws. Creeka. and Semi holes, these Indians. to the number Of 9O.OOO, will be fulI-hedged American citizens. Indian territory will be par1 of the state of Oklahoma. when state hood is obtained. and gradually the red and the white citizens will merge and become one. The following figures relating to the Indians. and published by Leslie's Weekly. are of interest:
 There the 27O.00O Indians in the country. Of the ITO, GOO who are outside fo the five civilized tribes of the In- dian territory and outside of the state of New York. 3O.OeO are attending school. Civilized clothes are worn wholly by 12O,OO0 of these 17O.0OO h. dians, and are worn partly by 30,OO0 more: four-fifths Of these reside in dwelling houses of civilized style; TO- 900 talk English enough for ordinary purposes, and most Of these can read it; and 10000 are members of churches Practically all the members of the five tribes talk English, all wear civilized clothes, all have good schools, and all live in dwelling houses. The same is true of the few thousand Indians in New York.
 Since 1877, when the government be- gan its work of educating and prepar- ing them for citizenship the Indians have made far more progress than the whites ever did in any equal time. The CheOkeeS, ChoctaWS. ChicaSaws, Creeks and Seminoles have been gov erning themselves for two-t thirds of d century. They will do the same thing

WILLIAM MORGAN.

The sheep rearing industry has be- come one of the most important within Arizona, and in it's profits a large share has come to Phoenix and the Salt river valley. This has come through the custom that now is general of bringing the hocks down from the mountains for lambing and shearing in the mild CT winter and spring climate found near Arizonas capital cit.,. Although this year has been exceptional to his usual custom. one os the pioneers of this southern migration was William Morgan. of Skowlow, Navajo county, Arizona. Other flock owners joined, till now springtime sees more than 100000 head of sheep around the camps north of this cit. The present season has been one of unusual profit. even passing last years phenomenal price record of p cents a pound for un- secured wool. These prices have largely come through the work of such men as MT. Morgan in grading up their flocks by the introduction of the best of the Merino stocks.
 MT. Morgan, now counted one of the heaviest sheep owners and most solid men of Arizona, is a conspicuous exam pie of what may be done in the terri tory by pluck and industry. Tn 1879 he was a sheeDherder in northern Ari- zona at s25 2 month and found" Thrown on the world ct the age of eight by the death of his father, he had been a telegraph messenger boy, had worked in the Chicago stock yards and had thence drifted down to a sheep ranch in Texas. For years after coming to Arizona he became half owner in a band of $500 sheep and EI,,4 . of bad years. with the lowest of prices, he has prospered steadily and deserv- edly.
 In November Of 1900. MT. Morgan was elected a member of the Twenty first Legislative Assembly on the dem- ocratic ticket. though he had not so- licited the nomination and hcd made no canvass for the place. Though es- pecially well informed concerning the interests Of the live stock industry, he became known as one of the strongest members of the legislature, assisting in the passage of many important measures. as well as doing effective work on the Committee on Live Stock. Claims, Counties and County Bounda- ries. and as Chairman of the Federal Relations Committee.
 Beside his legislative experience. he was supeFNlSor oI HIS county TOT more than five years, after serving l couple of terms as justice of the peace. These offices have come to him unso- licited, and In each case have repre- sented the esteem in which he is held by the people among whom he has lived so long.

sions and rolled off upon the floor. Then the doctors were sent for
 The envelope which had contained the capsules bore the name of the E. B. Rives pharmacy. It was taken to the drug store and MT. Rives recogniz- ed it as the envelope into which he had put three capsules for MT. Sunderland the evening before. He showed the coroner the box from which the cap sules had been taken. He had not put up the capsules himself but they mad come to him in that shape from wholesale Orug house. He had sold hundreds of them from the same box. He said that there could have been no mistake such as the substitution of strychnia capsules for quinine cap sules for strychnia could not come in | that shape. If there had been such a mistake it had been made at the drug house in the putting up of the capsules. but in the opinion of Mir Rives death might not have been caus- ed by strychnia poisoning. He said that it might have been the result of ptomain poisoning whose symptoms are almost identical with those of strycnnia poisoning.
 Mir. Rives said that after he had given MT. Sunderland the capsules, the latter remained in the store for some time talking about city politics, and especially the first ward in which ne was greatly interested. Mfr .Rives | said that he had never sold MT. Sun derland any strychnia at any time There was only one way apparent | to the corOner's jury by which it could | be shown that death had been caused by poison or mad not and that was by an analysis of the contents of the stomach. It did not appear that any material purpose could be served by such an analysis and it was de- termined not to order it.
 Various forms of verdict were pre- sented to the jury. but none of them were agreed upon. It was finally found that death was the result of 1 ''convulsions."
 The more intimate acquaintances of | MT. Sunderland, who had seen him daily said that though he had not been feeling quite we'll he had been cheer ful and interested in a variety of mat ters. There was nothing in his man ner which hinted that he was dissat- isfied with life. Just how he died will never be known.
 MT. Sunderland was a native ot Pennsylvania. and was fifty-six years old. He came to Phoenix about six teen years ago and engaged in the business of carpenter contractor. He acquired a large volume of real estate. At one time, about a year ago. he was in some financial embarrassment. but his friends say that his affairs were by no means in bad shape lately.
 A few years ago he began to take a great interest in politics to which he devoted q great deal of his time though for the last year or more his attention has been given chiefly to his business He leaves a wife and four children, the eldest of whom is R. F. Sunderland

CARD FROM H. GOODMAN.
His Liberal Offer to Treat Worst cas'
 of Catarrh i:9 Phoenix.

We have such an unsual offer to make to your readers, one that will be of the greatest value to them. that We hope you will give this letter proml- nent location.
 For some time we have had an cp- portunity to watch the results follow ing the use of Hyomei, treatment for catarrh that cures by breathing medi- cated air. absolutely without any stomach dosing The results have been so remarkable that we feel justified h making a public offer to treat the worst case of catarrh in Phoenix with the understanding that if Hyomei does not cure, 1t will cost absolutely nOth. ing.
 People who have spent a great deal of money with catarrh specialists, de irving but little benefit. have seen al most immediate good results from the use of Hyomei and continued treat ment with this remedy has resulted in complete and lasting cure.
 The complete HyOmei outfit costs .only S1, and consists of an inhaler that can be carried in the vest pocket q medicine drOpper and q bottle of lily omei. Should this not be enough for T cure, extra bottles of Fyomei can be obtained for 50 cents. Compare thIs small expense with the fees charged by specialists, and remember we guar antee the treatment will cost nothing unless it cures.
 We hope this offer will be accept ed by many of your readers.
