The Reason why

Corporal Sandhurst was one day
drilling batch of raw recruits.
why is it, he said-to bright
looking chap, "that the blade of
your sabre is curved instead of
straight
1.-The blade is curved, the recruit
answered, in order to give more
force to the blow"
Nonsense said the Corporal.
1.-THE blade is curved so as to fit the
scabbard. If it was straight, how
would you get it into the curved
scabbard, you idiot?'

MEXICAN KILLED
 BY FALLING TIMBER.
ATTEMPTED TO PASS ALONG WAGON LOADED WITH LUM-
 BIER AT LOWELL.

Rather than wait a few seconds until the danger was passed, Dedo- a.llo Dpra, a Mexican, aged about 30 years, attempted to run from the rear to the front of a lumber wagon that was being unloaded in the yards of the Bisbee Lumber Company at Low ell, and as a result was struck by a heavy timber, his life being crushed out,
 Just as companion threw loose the binding chain, Dura attempted to make his run. One of the Axe tim bers, twenty feet long, struck Dura across the forehead, crushing in his skull and killing him instantly, it be- ing necessary to pull him from under pile of timbers.
 Justice Hogan summoned a coro- ner's jury, which promptly returned a verdict to the effect that Dura had come to his death as the result of his own carelessness.

TOOK POKER CHIP
That's the Peculiar Charge Made Against Man Who
 Played Faro.
COMPLAINT READS
 PETTY LARCENY.
Outcome of Case Will Set Im- portant Precedent in Like Matters - Sporting People Interested Observers.

Whether stealing a blue chip at a faro game constitutes petty larceny or not is a matter that will be settled this afternoon by a jury in Justice McDonald's court when the case of up for hearing.
 O'Donnell was placed under arrest yesterday on a warrant charging him with the theft of blue chip, the value of which is placed in the com plaint at s1, but which has intrinsic ally a value of about cents, and, according to the value fixed for those who buck the tiger" soc.
 It is probable that this is the first time in the history of the Arizona courts that they have been called upon to determine the value of a blue chip, such a5 are used in place of money in all classes of gambling.
 That the matter has gotten into the courts is the result of a fight, in when O'Donnell ard Dixson engaged last Saturday, following which Dixson was arrested and given trial before Jus tice Mcdonald. The court heard the evidence, and has taken the matter under advisement until after the out. come of today's hearing of O'Donnell.
 Dixson ayers in his complaint that O'Donnell was seated at the faro game of the Orient, and took with out right blue chip, which is alleged to be thing Of value, though it is a well-known fact that away from a gambling game chips have no value at all, except what they can be bought for cents at any store that may carr ythem in stock.
 O'Donnel was to have had his hear ing yesterday. but at the last minute his attorney rushed into court and demanded a jury trial, thus deferrine the matter until today.
 It is probable that today's case will set an important precedent in matters of this kind. Players at gambling l games have several times in the past 1 been caught in the act of stealing | chips, but no arrests were made fol l the reason that conviction was not 1 thought probable.
 O'Donnell makes a strong denial of the charge against him, and says | it was made out Of spite.

URGES cULBERsoN
 AMENDMENT PASSAGE.

The New York World urges the adoption of the Culberson amendment to the Hepburn rate bill now pend ing before Congress. It says:
 By far the most important amend ment yet offered to the railroad rate bill is that introduced yesterday by Senator Culberson, of Texas, to pro hibit all railroad companies engaged in interstate commerce from making contributions to political campaign funds. It is no exaggeration to say that this amendment is more impor- tantI to the welfare of the American people than the bill itself.
 Hitherto all attempts on the part of the Federal government to regulate corporations have been followed by increased activity on the part of the corporations. They have supplied the sinews of war to the campaign com mittees under a direct or implied pro mise of privilege and protection. Mat ters have gone from bad to worse, un- til even the great insurance compa- nies. which are only indirectly inter ested in national legislation, have been turning the money of their policy holders into the campaign chest of political parties, in violation of law and a sacred trust.
 If the railroad rate bill were to pass without the Culberson amendment the inevitable result would be to stimu. late the efforts of the railroads, with their s15.O00, 100000 of capitalization, to control the rate making power of the government. Through their con. tributions they would control the na tional committees, through the na.

END OF coERcIvE STATEHOOD
New York Sum-


 The action of the Senate on the joint statehood bill may be regarded as a final disposition of the ugly idea that Federal power at Washington should be employed to force the peo- pie of one territory into an undesired union with the people of another ter. ritory.
 The gallant fight which Arizona has made in two Congresses for her high. CT interests, and her moral and legal rights, is now won. Senator Bever. idge is reported as announcing his in. tention to renew the attempt at the next session. We doubt if even the optimism of that energetic but some. times misguided statesman will be equal to the experiment when another opportunity comes. The significance of the Senate's vote of 42 to % for the Foraker amendment providing a separate reference to the people of the two territories is not likely tc be forgotten very soon. New Mexico will probably come in at her cwn time and in her own way, and Ari. zona independently, when she is ready. There is no visible occasion for recurrence elsewhere of the same issue. When the case of Alas ka comes up in the indefinite future the question will be one of partition and not one of union. Joint statehood by coercive process against the will and the protest of an orgsnized. terr. | tory, Is probably dead.
 Too much importance cannot De at tached to this event as an adminis tration defeat It is true that the pres ident's message of December last re commended the immediate adriss:c, of New Mexico and Arizona as ont Mir Roosevelt then expressed ths opinion that there was no obligation to treat territorial subdivisions, whicf he said were matters of convenience only, as binding Congress in the mat ter of admission to statenood. At tha time, however, the underlying ques tions of right and wrong were not a. apparent as they have since become nor was the overwhelming preponder ance of sentiment in Arizona agains a forced union so clearly established
 We do not picture the president al bowed down with grief today owe the vote that gives Arizona squar' deal.

STUDLEY INSANE?
Former Bisbee Minister Drops Out of Sight, Leaving No Trace-May be in Indian Territory or Arizona.
REPORTED TO BE IN
 MICHIGAN ASYLUM.
Was in Chicago Last October, and Has Not Been Heard of Since Relatives Are Doing Best to Locate Him.

Is H. w. Studiey, who was few years ago pastor of the Christian church in Bisbee, dead, in an insane asylum or Is he trying to keep his whereabouts from relatives in this city and in Michigan, all of whom are now trying to get some trace of him? Since October 23, 1905, Studley has dropped completely out of sight. On that date he wrote a postal card to his sister, Mrs. Mary Baker. at Grand Rapids, Mich, saying that he had ar rived safe and sound in Chicago. He made no mention of whether he in tended to leave there or remain in that city for an indefinite period.
 That Studley is now an inmate of one of four insane asylums in Michi- gan is a report that has been current ill Bisbee for several days, it being stated that he was placed in one of hem after public examination a few weeks ago.
 George F. Black, who was in core spondence with Studley, up To 2 short time ago, was asked yesterday if he had heard anything regarding his be- ing in an asylum, replying that as far as he knew the present whereabouts of Studley are a mystery to several who are much concerned over his wei fare. Black some time ago received a letter from Studley. in which he stat ed that he would either locate in Northern Arizona or go to Indian Ter ! ritory, and seek his fortunes in that part of the country Whether he went to either place is not known.
 Studley left Bisbee in November of 1903, giving it out that he would go to St. Louis, attend the Worlds Fair and then go to Michigan, and later to Grand Rapids and visit with Mrs | Baker, his sister. He got as far as l Chicago, hut never reached there. That Studley is still alive is bencv. ed because of the fact that he carried ali insurance policy in one of the old l line companies. This company has as yet made no inquiries about him in Bisbee. which it would probably dc if he had died.
 Letters were recently written from Bisbee to the asyllms in Michigan by which it is hoped to determine whether or not he is in enc of them Replies are expected shortly.
 The disappearance of Studley is causing much concern among his rela ! lives. One cf the theories advanced Is that when he reached Chicago, ht meI foul play, being murdered for hi! money. It is said that he carried z considerable amount on his person.

Says His Friends Are Urging Him to Again Be Candi-
 date for Sheriff,
HAS NOT YET MADE UP
 HIS MIND DEFINITELY.
In BiSbee for Two Days to Consult With Admirers, and if Demand Is Strong Enough Will Try for Nomination.

To feel the public pulse. confer with friends regarding the next nomi- nation for Sheriff on the Democratic ticket, and to generally look after his fences. Del Lewis, former Sheriff of Cochise county, has been in the city for the past two days.
 Prospects for the nomination are looking good to Lewis, according to a statement he made yesterday While not having announced himself as a candidate, he is nevertheless an aspirant for the place, and if the peo pie want him would gladly make the race.
 While in Bisbee this time Lewis has been in consultation with several of his friends, who in the past have been behind him in his political aspira tions. As a result of what they have told hiIl, he has practically decided to announce himself as a candidate when the proper time comes.
 So many of my friends have been after me to be a candidate" said Lewis yesterday, ''tha: l have about decided to make the fight. l do not care to force myself upon the people but if they want me to run, why, l will do it.
 llltie dSO SGNGI Sl sOA ! friends spoke to me about entering the race, and they have been aftei me lately. If they want me to take ! the nomination I will take il, but if ! they have anyone else they would rather have for sherir I will not feel badly disappointed.
 As I feel about the matter now, can not say whether or not l am [ candidate. It will depend on whai | develops between LOW and the time for convention. After l look around a little more Twill be able to say more about it."
 l Lewis intimated that he has sever al promising propositions on hand al the present time, and if they turn out satisfactorily he would not care tf be a candidate for the office. It is probable that the result of some oi his business ventures will have a: much to do with deciding the matter of his candidacy as anything else.
 At the present time ex-Sherif Lewis, after having served two :erms in the office, is a farmer and nothing more. He is cultivating land nea:

s3O,OOO THEATER| LEWIS |S WILLING
Manahan Has Plans Drawn for Magnificent Playhouse
 for This City,
BIG BALL ROOM ON
 WHOLE LOWER FLOOR
To Have Seating Capacity of Over Thousand = Will Be
 Biggest Opera House in the
 Southwest Outside Fl PaSo,

Plans are now in the hands of A. l. Manahan for a sS0,000 opera house on which he will start work shortly and rush to completion in time to ded icate the structure shortly after the new sl00,000 opera house in Fl Paso of which he will have the manage ment, is ready to be thrown open to the public.
 After working for several months on the project, Manahan stated yes terday that matters have reached point which assures that Bisbee will have one of the most modern play houses in the entire Southwest. Out side of the new house to be built in Fl Paso, it will be the largest and most modern in Arizona, New Mex ico or Western Texas.
 In addition to being a theate- oi which the city may well be proud, the plans Manahan has had drawn call for ball room on the lower flool that will be 60 by 90 feet, with ma ule floor. In connection with 1t will be a large kitchen for banquet pur- poses and a number of ante rooms.
 Ground for the structure has beer secured by Manahan on the hill back of Library Hall. The house will be reached from Main street by a slant ing walk and from the upper part oi the city by a new road, which VII. start on Quality HIIl.
 Plans for the interior of the new building are drawn largely after the Mason Opera House in Los Angeles while the exterior will be of the Mis- sion style of architecture. The ex terior dimensions of the building will be GO by 130 feet. The stage will be the largest in Arizona. 40 feet deel and 32 feet wide. It will have ample fire protection.
 In the theater there will be seats for 1 ,OS0 people. though should occa sion demand, large aisles and vacan space in the back of the building vii permit of getting fully 400 more into the place without crowding.
 On the lower floor will be the ball room. The ceilings of this will raise from the back end, where the musi clans will be seated, to the front This slant corresponds to the raise that is made in the floor of the 'opert house.
 Manahan's new opera house, situat ed on the hill above the city, will b. the most imposing structure in Bis bee. Though the exterior IS to b' plain and solid. its appearance vii be one of architectural beauty from a point of strength and ruggedness.
 Manahan was unable to state yes terday exactly when work will start The plans he has now prepared are still in the rough, and may undergo some changes before the construction of the building begins. ,7
 During a trip few days ago tt Fl Pasp Manahan secured the man agement of the new opera house tf be built there at a cost of S100,000 The houses in Bisbee and Fl PasC will be run in connection with thost in Tucson, Globe, Phoenix, Pres colt, Jerome and other Afizona cities. the several of them forming circuit. -...
