CLAIMS ROBBERY

An elderly Mexican brought to the
police yesterday story Of misplaced
confidence by which he lost watch
and $50 Tuesday night while in a state
of intoxication. He said that during
the course of the evening he met a
Mexican who soon became very friend
". He said that later in the evening
his soberer friend found 1t necessary
to take him home and put him to bed.
After being put to bed, but before he
had really closed his eyes, he was as
tonished at seeing his alleged friend
go carefully through his clothes. He
didn't think Of what he was doing at
the time. but the next morning, when
be missed ais money and watch, he
knew what became of them. He found
his friend, but he was without either
the timepiece or the money,-Douglas

Binford left Prescott several weeks
ago for Seattle, Wash, where he had
planned to go into the saloon bust
ness. When the Bashford-Burnister
company put new man on his books
It was found that Binford was an en-
bezxler.
After an expert had worked on the
books a few days il was discover 81
that Binford had stolen about $4,000,

eight years that he had been employ

Binford was bonded with a security
company, which has made good his
stealings. They demanded that he be
brought back from Seattle, and SheF-
III Lowry of Prescott went after him.
Binford is now in jail, and unless
relatives make good his shortage will
be prosecuted.
Several years ago Binford figured
in a sensational case in which he ~es

sent from Prescott to Los Angeles to
visit with his relatives, eloped from
there to Mexico with a mining lrsn.

ty. The design for it was drawn by
Prof. Warren E. Rollins, the famous
artist, who is now sojourning in
Phoenix, having studio in the
ONeill building. It was drawn five
times as large as the seal and photo
graphically reduced by the engraver
to the proper dimensions.
The deer is a deer, even to the
casual observer, and the mountains
are really the San Francisco peaks.
ANY one who has ever seen these no
BILE mountains could not mistake
them for anything else. The picture
is SO ifelike that the limbs OF the
pine trees seem to rustic whenever
there is a breeze blowing anu AS
sistant Secretary Collins says that he
is afraid to touch it. lest the thorns
OF the castus stick in ais hand. The
deer has also been turned around
facing the left hand side of the pic
ture.
Altogether the seal is very pleasing
and is one that this great Territory
Of Arizona need not be ashamed of.

vast territory. He stated this morn

find cities like Prescott and Phoenix
in this country, but asked if they
were not about all there is of Arizona.
The Gazette representative replied
that while the residents of the two

there was certainly a little more to
Arizona than that. Unon hearing Oh

RATS COST MILLIONS
Damage To Cereals May Reach $780,
600, 900 a Year.

Washington Especially The De-
partment of Agriculture will soon
issue a farmers bulletin on the
methods of destroying rats. This
bulletin was prepared under the
supervision of Assistant Biologist d.
e. Lantz, of the biological Survey.
Experts assert that an infallible
method of exterminating rats would
be worth more to the people of the
county in n single decade than the
Department of Agriculture has cost
since its establishment.
One rat is much like another, so
far as destructiveness goes; but
three kinds, all immigrants from
the Old World, have made their ap-
pearance in this country. The black
rat was the first to reach our shores,
coming nearly 800 years ago. The
common species, known as the
brown, or Norway rat, arrived the
year before the Declaration of In
dependence was promulgated to the
world and at once proceeded to drive
out its weaker rival until almost
everywhere it has supplanted the
black rat The third species, known
as the roof, or AlexandriRe, rat of
Egypt, is great mariner, infests
almost every ship and is common
along the coast, especially in the
South.
Rats Destroy Millions.
According to Uncle Sans experts,
