DRY is that the visitors must have
been chloroformed while the killing
was going on.
There was another transaction in
rabbit ears at the office of the board
yesterday. A small boy brought in
four Clerk Thomas told him that
settlement of his claim against the
county would involve too much trouble
for the size ot It and advised him to
keep his ears until he could get enough
of them together to make ii worth
while. The boy was departing sorrow
fully. when Supervisor Hoghe. who had
overheard part of the conversation.
called him back and told him that he
would make a personal matter Of it.
He would buy the ears as private cit
izen at the regular county price of five
cents. He gave the boy twenty cents
and the youth departed.
After he mad gone. il was brought to
the attention % Mr.. Hoghe that he
had sprung the price. 1t also turned
out then that Mr.. Hoghe had been SO
engrosSed in the equalizing of taxable
property that he had thought that
each ear represented rabbit.

POSSESSED OF DEVILS
HIS MOTHER THINKS
Mrs. Woods Arrested Yesterday for a
Too Vigorous Reclamation Of Her
Son.

Captain Hi Mcdonald yesterday ar
rested Mrs. Woods. living on West
Taylor street. on the charge of cruelty
beating her little son. The frequent
bettings of the boy took place within
the sight or the hearing of the captain,
who lives near by. The thing began
to get on his nerves and yesterday
morning he determined to put stop
to the performance.
Ii is his understanding that the wo-
man IS a religious crank and having
diagnosed the case OF her boy, be-
lieves that he is possessed of seven
devils. which she will hammer out OF
him. The boy has been whipped at all
hours of the day and now and then for
the purpose Of taking the devils by
surprise. the youth has been aroused
in the middle of the night for the chas-
tisement of the devils. The case will
be heard tomorrow.
The neighbors say that the boy is a
very good one and they have been I'M
able to see that he is deserving of any
of the punishment which has been 50
systematically visited upon him.
Not long ago an older brother of the
boy was sent to the reform school for
stealing. 1t was brought out at his
trial before Justice tombstone. that he
had been hiding out from home on ac-
count OF the treatment he received
there. The justice was very much i'm
pressed by the boys frank statement
Of the case. and thought that il would

legal evidence before the court that
any offense had been committed.
United States Attorney Alexander
appealed on the part of the govern
ment from this finding of the court
and pending the determination of the
matter the bond Of Ramirez was fixed
at 5000 which he subsequently furn-
ished.

This was a dispute over some aban-
doned mining claims in the Pioneer
mining district in Pinal county. The
plaintiffs had located or relocated two
claims calling them Iron Mountain No.
subsequently relocated by the Arizona
Corporation Charter Guarantee Com
pany and disposed Of to others of the
defendants.
The plaintiffs asked that the defend
ants be declared to have no right or
title to the property. In the answer
to the complaint the defendants
averred that the plaintiffs bad COM
piled with none of the laws in regard
to relocation. but had acted as il they
were the original Hscoverers; that
they did not even comply with the
laws relating to the location of mines:
that they treated an abandoned shaft

FIRST AMERICAN FLAG
RAISED IN ALASKA
Three Banners Now Lay Claim to
That Observation-Disclosures of
Alaska Yukon Pacific Exposition
Wants Historic Stars and Stripes

Seattle. July Especial Correspon-
dence of The Republican).-In what
place is the American banner that
first fluttered over Alaska now rest
ing? In what manner has the flag
been preserved to the present time.
And finally. what is the real story Of
that stirring October day at Sitka
when the American warship arrived
to take possession of the country. ana
when the Russian flag was rent in
two pieces as they pulled ii down from
the flag pole for the last time in the
western hemisphere. while the beauti-
full Russian Princess Maksoatoff wept
at the shortsightedness of her cOun-
try at selling a land with so much po-
tenital greatness.
A few months ago the management
Of the Alaska Yukon Pacific ExpOsi-
ton started 10 solve these questions.
especially the first one, as to the
whereabouts of the flag. The result
was curious, and indeed reminds so
forcibly of a famous incident of the
eighteenth century, that perhaps the
story may be told.

1t was so with the flag. No sooner
had a search began for the first
American flag unfurled in the North
land. than the inquirers began to be
daily informed of where the real first

had flag thirty-five or forty years
old seemed to be determined TO ad-
vance his banner as the original one.
Many and ingenious We're the stories
told. and bitterly did some OF the con-
testants wage war for the legitimacy
of the particular flag in which they
were interested. True, many of these
ancient American banners had most
interesting histories. but histories not

RESULT OF The DRIVE

The Peoria Association Yesterday De-
liyered PASS Rabbits Ears to the Su-
pervisors.

W. A Hood and F. A. Woolsey. re-
spectively president and secretary Of
the Salt River Valley Rabbit Drivers
association. appeared at the office of
the board OF supervisors yesterday,
saving that they had brought 10 town
the ears of 2456 rabbits the result of
the gathering the day before near Pc
oria. The supervisors were busy at
the time. sitting as a board of equali
zation and could not then undertake
the official count. President Hood and
Secretary WOOlsey then said that they
would leave the ears at the Dublin
corral under strong guard and would
bring them to the office at o'clock
Tor the counting.
Some surprise was expressed at the
number of the ears. There had been
an impression that not nearly so
many rabbits had been killed. The
number Of the slaughtered had been
estimated at from fifty TO not more
than 200. Messrs. Hood and Woolsey
said that they had killed a great many
more rabbits than they had ears for;
that the night before their stock of
ears had been raided and several hun
bred have been carried off. They said
that they expected that the stolen ears
would later be brought to the board
for the bounty by the thieves.
The supervisors demurred To the
counting of so many ears: the job was
a most unpleasant one. and had not
been contemplated by them when they
We're running for office. About that
time Judge Phillips who was still la
boring under the popular impression
regarding the number of rabbits killed
the day before. came in and he was
asked if he would count the ears. He
said IL would be a short job. Finally.
he said thas he would count them if
there were more than 500: then he
backed out. and was asked if he would
count them If there were more than
1000; he hesitated bit when he was
asked if he would them - there
were more than 1000. he said he
would. He got the job. The associa-

SUPREME COURT DOCKET
TAKING ON MORE LENGTH.
The Appeal Completed by the Govern
ment in the Gaze of Eduardo
Ramirez.

Another move was made yesterday
in the case of Eduardo Ramirez form
er customs broker of NOgales. Sonora.
whom the Mexican government is try
ing to get hold Of on a charge of forg-
cry. In the case of the title Of Arturo
VI. Elias appellant, against Eduardo
Ramirez, respondent, Judge A c.
Baker yesterday filed I'm the office Of
the clerk of the supreme court a bond
on appeal. The amount of the bond is
$500. The sureties are NJ. G.. Sama-
niego and Filiberto Aguirre of Tucson
The appellant is the Mexican consul
at Tucson. So. in this case Judge
Baker represents the Mexican govern
ment.
Ramirez who had fled from Mexico
had taken refuge on this side OF the
line and arrested on a warrant based
on a warrant issued in Mexico charg-
ing the former broker with having de-
frauded the Mexican government out
of about $1,000 by means of forged
bills Of lading of cargoes of imported
wheat. The government claimed to
know that it had actually been de-
frauded of not less than $4,000. though
the amount might have been much
more even than that. 1t had. however.
partly protected itself by confiscating
everything that Ramirez could not
carry out Of Mexico with him includ-
ing a new opera house which he had
recently completed at Nogales. Sonora.
as cost OF $4,000.
Ramirez was taken before Judge
Campbell at Tucson who ordered his
on the showing that had
been made. An appeal was taken to
the supreme court on this order and it
was set aside on the ground that

which he intended to present to the
hoard at Z O'Clock IN, the evening. At
that hour he was informed that it
was too late-that the applications

Whereat MCGEE protested, claiming
that it was not the law. The district
attorney said the board had adopted
such rule. Thereupon the attorney
denounced the board, claiming that
its position was unjust, and contrary

NarroW-Gauge for the Kennedy.

At the Kennedy mine a preliminary
survey has been made by W. +. Downs
for the construction of a narrow
gauge track from MartelI's station to
the Kennedy works. 1t is not intend
ed for a locomotive line, but a tram
way, with mules as the motive power.
The route runs around the hill to the
east of the RAILROAD depot, following
mainly along the route proposed for
the extension of the main line to
jackson. The object is to facilitate
the transportation of all kinds of
supplies to the big mine. When COM
pleted it Will probably do away with
the pumping of oil. 1t is also
thought that when this communica-
ton is established, the Kennedy com
pany may follow the example of the
Aella, and ship all sulphurets to the
smelters below for treatment, thereby
doing away with the home chIor1-
nation plant. This, however, is
merely matter of popular surmise
at present.
