The Peoples Paper tells of an old
negro and his crippled wife who
were sent to Jail in Charlotte Mon
day for selling some whiskey to a
white man on Sunday. It was right
to punish the two negroes, but it
strikes us the white man was abo,.t
as guilty as the negroes, as he aided
Them in violating the law.

 He then held his feet off of the floor until he was unconscious. He was found by Guard Jim Davis shortly after he had made the at- tempt and was cut down unconscious. His face was beginning to color and his tongue was sticking out about two inches.
 After being worked over for some time he was brought to his senses and replaced in his cell in the tank row shortly after he was detected oy oh- der Sheriff Wallace in the attempt to make another rope. All of his bed ding was then taken away from him so that he could not accomplish hi' purpose.

SOLDIERS ARE WINNERS
FORT HuAcRucA TEAM BEATS DOUGLAS BOYS BY A COM
 PORTABLE SCORE.

Oouglas, April 3, 1906:-(SpeciaD-
 Yesterday was red letter day in the annals of baseballdom in Douglas.
 The ball team, from Company B, Fort Huachuca, crossed bats with the Douglas nine at Lincoln Park yester- day, and despite the high wind a good game was played. The soldiers beat the Douglas team by a score of g to IS.
 The regular ball team from the fort could not attend yesterday, owing to various causes, and the team from Company B was sent in its stead. This team, while not as strong as the regular team, is an excellent team, and the boys yesterday played fine game.
 Unfortunately for the game. high wind came up during the afternoon. and with it's accompaniment of dust made good ball hard to play. and it was thought for a while that it would | detract from the attendance at the game. but when the first inning was called at o'clock not cnly th.a grand stand and bleechers were packed, but also standing room around the gate was at a premium. This was by far the largest crowd that has ever wit. messed a game of ball in Douglas.
 During the morning the band from the fort, which came in the night be- fore to attend the dance, gave free concert CD the street ir f-cct of Scott and Thornton's store, which was cer. tainly a treat to all lovers of music The band was also in attendance at the game. and until the wind got So bad they had tn stop, they gave an ether complimentary concert. This ' is ore of the best bands in the south west, and Douglas fans are loul in their praise of Manager Thornton O l the ball team for securing the ban as an attractione Of the game.
 The game had been called for | o'clock, and it began promptly ct that hour. when the Dougics team tool the field and T. J. Day took the um pire's position, which he filled witt

MT. Schofield Doesn't Know the Simple Life"-Finally Gets Up Against the Real Thing, and Then the News papers Call Him a Piker.

C. Nj. Schofield, up to the middle sf last January superintendent of the Newbury mine in Pinal county. has been going some since he left there. He has visited both Prescott and Phoenix and in a mad whirl of hilar- ity. made the inhabitants of both places think he was a multi-nilhon- aire with his laysh expenditures Of the filthy lucre Reports have 1t that he ran short of ready cash at Prescott andl that when he left there ne left a few souvenirs of his visit among some of the business houses in the shape of please pay to- etc, rang ing from $50 to $100 each, ana no money was found on deposit by this individual in the institutions on which they were drawn.
 Mir. Schcfield dropped out of sigh for a short time after leaving Pres cctt, but the simple life" was not in his line and he bobbed up again at Les Angeles. presumably having forgotten all about the worthless pa- per passed in Arizona and the fact that his dupes might have grown tired of holding the sack and would like very much to know his where abouts.
 In Los Angeles also he became known as the prince of spender3 and it was through his keep the change" nc-oriety there that the Prescott people learned where he was and they wired the authorities to either collect s16O or arrest him.
 Mid scenes of hilarity. "Schofield ;,fa of his impending arrest if he did no. produce. and he promised to make good, but he tried to eyade the pay ment by disappearing again. He was finally located and placed under ar rest, but friends took the matter up and he was released.
 Just to give you q line on his liber' ality: He took a party of friends to a beach resort out about IS miles from Los Angeles and after feasting them, paid his bill at the restaurant and to show his appreciation of the treatment accorded him. gave away just think of II, gave away-353 shares of mining stock valued at S20.- 900 to the proprietress and busted himself and ne had 10 walk back to tcWr. We haven't learned whether  the other members of his gay party have reached the city yet or not, but Sehofield. we know, got back. He probably hurried on ahead to notify Los Angeles people not to be alarm ed, that the approaching din was made by whites. .r
 How about il, Schofield, are there Brussells carpets on the floors and rare paintings on the walls, uphol stered furniture, etc. behind those steel doors, and barred windows al Los Angeles? Pie: and three times a day at that. You don't say!
 And to think of all the ten-spcls you exchanged for cigars of the ten cent variety. and after you having given away s20,O00 worth of mining stock. that those blankety-blank Pa eific Coast newspapers are calling you a piker. 'Tis a shame.-Florence Blade.

Big Improvements.

Now that the Boquillas Land X Cattle company has been put in pos session of the entire grant on the San Pedro. the company proposes to make some extensive improvements. The entire grant for a distance of thirteen miles along rae river from a point near the old town of Charles town to the Curtis ranch is to be fenced with a four-wire fence on both siIes of the river.
 The fence on the east side of the river is nearly all in place with the exception of one or two places and can be completed in a short time. while that on the west side of the river will take considerable time. The posts and wire for the fence have al ready been ordered and will be on the ground soon. The company has had a force of men at work under Sur veyor James for several weeks mak- ing a map of the grant showing all of the land that can be put into cul- tivation.
 A water right of 20,O)0 miners in- ches was filed on Saturday by the company and the water will be taken out of the San Pedro at a point about f-2 a mile south of the Boston mill and will then be used on the old Crane. Moves. Gotiens. Herrick and Likes places and down the river as far as possible.
 The company it is understood will, with ]. N. Curtis. rebuild the old dam at the Grand Central mill and both parties to contribute their share fr the maintenance of the ditch. The company will then be able to irrigate the Larrieu place and the old Sum- mers, Wild and Hill places. Besides putting under cultivation the land in cluded in the grant. the company Will endeavor to cultivate several quarter sections that they own about tive miles south of Benson. The grant contains 17,355.S6 acres, but some 1,462.sO acres belongs to the railroad companies and the mill sites so that tho company has 15.S73.26.
 While here recently Captain Tevis and his san. wm. Tevis, of the Kern County Cattle company and princi- pal owners in the Boquillas company. went over the grant and propose to make 1t one of the finest ranches in the west. IL Is the intention to stock ii with thorourhbred cattls and horses and to make some ideal farms out of tho lard tbet can be put under irri- gatjon. of which there will be several thousand acres
 The home ranch or main ranch will probably be located at the old | Herrick place about mile above ! Fairbank. The company will begin to take action in the matter as soon as the final report of the surveyor IS made which will be this week. There Is no doubt but what the entire grant will soon be covered with farms and l thousands of head of cattle and horses that will make 1t one of the ! largest ranches in the west.

Around Courthouse.

Matters were rather quiet around the courthouse today. The Board of Supervisors with the District Attor- ney visited the County Treasury and counted the funds on hand and found them to correspond with the amount that should be there to the very cent which was $S2,gS7.42. The Board made an order transferring s16. 1000 from the salary fund to the expense fund, which was getting rather low. The Board has so far done nothing outside of the regular routine work and the allowing of claims against the county.
 The sherffrs office this afternoon received a message from Bisbee stat ing that an insane woman by the name of Martin was under arrest there and Sheriff Hunt will leave in the morning to bring her over here 10 have an examination before tfTe probate court.
