Mrs. Osterloh Fined for Allowing Her
 Chickens to Run Loose.

IL has been demonstrated beyond a doubt that the ordinance passed by the council relating to chickens and other fowls running at large is valid and in inc case of Mrs. Osterloh, arrested at the instance of Jesus Frijo. a convic- ton was secured. Mrs. OsterlOh was arrested on the charge Thursday and ihe case was given a hearing yesterday afternoon before Justice of the Peace Standage. The defense offered no evil dence but pleaded guilty to the charge and Mrs. Osterloh was fined s5 and admonished that should she in the fu lure fail to keep her hens within bounds, the fine would be made some what heavier.

 The Fl Paso lodge carried off the first prize of 5000 for the best repre- sentation in the grand parade. bNt to Fl Paso Is not due all the credit, says MT. Nicholson, for members of the or der from Douglas and Bisbee were in the bunch of bull fighters. which was the thing carried out to perfection by Fl Paso. This delegation was gaily dressed as befitted Mexican toreadors and matadors, with banderillos and spears, some were on foot, others mounted. This same city also carried off the prize for a band. having with them a Mexican band from Guadala- jara. It was certainly a great adver- tisement for Texas.

The people were packed in a mass and had not sufficient breathing space to make life more than sufferable.
 Every one is interested in Arizona" said Mir. Nicholson yesterday. "We took along a large quantity of souven- frs. a swastika watch fob, and did not have near enough to go round, as they were in popular demand. As soon as people learn you are from Arizona they at once begin to ask questions about the country. We. of course. did all the boosting we could. and if there had been big delegation from Arizona it would have been a great nd for the territory"
 The next grand lodge meeting will be held at Dallas. Texas. and Mir. Nicholson thinks that it will be a wise plan to have all the Arizona lodges move to send a large delegation to the meeting, and try to get up some unique display for the grand parade. The cit ies so represented at Philadelphia were kept prominently before the public and will be for a long time to come. In fact. as a Kansas City paper remarked. the Elks are among the best and most valuable advertising assets a city pos sesses. This was particularly true with many western and southern cit ies. who sent large delegations to the Quaker City.

Lieut.. WooIf Writes That They Are
 Having a Good Time.

Attorney Chas. Woolf is in receipt of a letter from his brother. Lieuten- ant Wm. WOolf. who is with the team from the Arizona National Guard at Camp Perry, Ohio. Lieutenant Woolf writes that every one in camp is hay ing a splendid time: accommodations are good and the meals all that could be expected. He says: We have a pretty nice bunch of fellows and they are the most soldierly appearing ones in camp among the guards. We had big time on the way here and not a bad time now by any means. This is surely fine place for a camp and has a fine target range. When we got here We began to enter some of the minor events just for practice but to- morrow (Monday. we draw targets and get in two days good practice and then Wednesday, am. the big thing begins. We ought to just about finish this week"
 He adds that he and Sergeant Alma Jones are expecting to make a side trip to Niagara Falls before returning and that on the way home Jones will stop over with him in Kentucky for a few days. He expects to be back about the 18th or goth of September.

COBWEB SOCIAL.

There was fair sized crowd at the Cobweb social given last night by the EpWorth League. The members of the League had arranged the cobweb on the lawn at the Irwin home, but the rain late in the afternoon made it nec- essary to move everything into the house. So about twenty webs were strung through the house with a prize at the end of each which afforded much amusement for the young people. Ice cream and cake were served In the dining room. After the untangling of the web the time was spent in playing games and listening to the music fur nished by Misses Gladys Robinson. Hazel and Helen Mumford.

 Mir. Nicholson likes the east but thinks more money can be made easier in Arizona. He is therefore glad to get back to the old town with few new eastern ideas and some western hustle to accumulate another purse partly for the next Elks doings, none of which he ever misses and the rest to keep for other uses more profitable perhaps, but never more pleasureable.

Of that indescribable, terrible, primi-
tive duel between life and starvation
which the Chinese so dauntlessly en-
dure.
"In all this, write OF the best, and
not OF the worst. This is only the
first outpost of the famine district"
Speaking Of the causes Of the fam
inc-already comparatively well
known in this country-Mr. Ellis
says:
Heavy summer rains, the over
flowing Of the banks Of all streams
and of the Grand Canal, simply flood
cd the country and made Of promising
rice and grain fields only a desert
waste OF water. The crops were ut
terly ruined It is of interest that in
this section OF China wheat and maize
as well as rice are grown; that Is why
cornmeal and -four, the former even
the more acceptable Of the two, is
the popular form of relief. The Chi
ueso live closer to actual starvation
than it Is possible for a Wcsterner to
comprehend; they are always poor.
So the failure of the crops not to
mention the destruction of their
homes by flood at once placed them
in a state Of actual destitution which
can only be relieved when the wheat
crop is harvested i'm July. Mean
while, owing TO lack of seed, only half
OF the spring wheat crop has been
planted.
