THE YEAR.

Another milestone passed at mid night. Another stage. bringing every living thing near to the inevitable end of all.
 Years after all are very much alike taking the world over. Each one gath CTS in its share of the great and good Each one leaves in it's wake about the same volume of disaster and each one distributes the same wealth of benefit.
 Now and then some year is sullied Oy a great and bloody war or a deyas- tating plague. They loom conspicuous and terrible in the procession. In the shadow of them we fail to See the minor disasters and blessings But as ae have said. pears are after all very much alike. sent by Him.
 From out whose hand
 The centuries fall ike grains of
 sand"
 As years go, the past one has been very good to us of America and to the whole world. to us particularly of Ari- zOna. There has been brought to the people Of this country, some say. a peculiar embarrassment oE great riches, for the first time in the history of this or any other nation. Whether this Is true or not. it is certain that there is more than enough for all ig l. were properly distributed. and there probably was never a time when the distribution. however unequal it may have been. was more general
 There is work for all who want work Wages are better at the beginning Of ohe year than they have ever been since the war"
 We very naturally enter upon the
 year with apprehension. IL is ;he
 itrary beginning of a period in which much is sure to happen. We mayiweu wonder how we will come out Of it, or whether we or our friends will come out or it at all. But the prospect. barring the handicap of years which becomes continually harder, was never brighter for further life than it is now and there was never a clearer mortal view of good times. If there is any disaster, financial political or national in front of us it is in ambush. The short-sighted in their compari- !. son Of years are apt to take q sordid i view. 4 year to them has been good | or bad according as it has brought oD- . portunities for making money. If crops . nave been abundant. work has been ! plenty and well paid; if there has been ! general prosperity. they pat il on the ! back and bid it goodbye for having ! been a good year.
 What shall they say of the great con vention of all years. which men call eternity. where there will be neither work nor money?
 But we welcome the New Year.

Through the medium of the hearing
 in the United States court yesterday of a motion in one of the trust cases. the laymen of this Jurisdiction were permitted to get a clearer glimpse among the mysteries of appendicitis than the doctors usually permit. This disease has been enthroned upon a pedestal in a sanctuary seldom entered by the layman in a normal frame of mind. He is generally brought jn filled either with anaesthetics or mental per tUrbation and Is removed with a sore spot in his abdomen, a memento of his late ailment. From what we have been able to gather from the high priests about the appendicitis altar we are in- clined to suspect that our ancient and vulgar enemy. the collie. Is masquerad- ing in the mysterious.

VIM, A. Logue for the defendant.
IWenty-four men were put in the
box, and then IL were stricken off the

defense, so Judge Endicott directed
the jury to render a verdict for the
plaintiff. which was done, the amount
Of claim with interest amounting TO
$147.5O
This case grows out of the defalca-

LORE MAY WORK
OUT MARVIN CASE.

Dover, Del, April 23.-Acting upon
evidence given the Kent County Grand
Jury, now in session, by the New
Jersey State Detective, Frank Lore,
OF Bridgeton, and his own sworn be-
lief, Magistrate G. F. Wade, OF this
city, issued warrant to-day for the
arrest of Frank Butler, charging him
with being an aocomplice in the death
OF Horace Marvin, the four. year-old
son of Doctor Marvin, who disap.
peared from his home near here on
March 3 last. Butler Is one of the
men who was working on the Marvin
farm on the day of the little boys
disappearance and is the last person
supposed to have seen him alive. b.
Armed with the warrant, Detective
Lore tonight boarded the steamer
" John P. Wilson," bound from PhiIa-
delphia to Lebanon, in this State.
Butler is deck hand on the steamer
and dglt was the intention of the detec-
tive to place him under arrest as soon
as the boat reached Delaware waters.
This precaution was taken. it is
said, because Buffers evidence is
wanted by the Grand Jury, which
closes its session tomorrow, ana If
the arrest we're made in Pennsylvania
much delay might ensue because of
extradition laws. pa}
The first point to be touched by the
Wilson will be Bowers Beach, near
the Marvin farm. From there Butler
will be, brought to Dover and at once
be put through an inquisition by the
Grand Jury.
The supposition of the detectives is
that little Horace Marvin may have
been accidentally killed near his
home, and that those who were jnno-
Gently involved in the purely acci-
dental occurrence became panic
stricken and that the body was con-
cealed. The, detectives think that it
may be possible to CLEAN information
from Butler which will lead to the
solution of the mystery.
Doctor Marvin was in Dover a short
time Tonight. When informed of the
status OF the case, he expressed his
firm belief in the theory of Detective
Lore. and he presented it to ths Grand
Jury. and says that it is the only So
luton to the problem.

IN THE HISTORIC
i o. DAYS OF OLD.

The death of Mrs. Jefferson Davis
has brought the home of Henry Ewing
into the public eye.
The house is quaint old building
erected in 1869 and is known as the
Howell ancestral home. The land
upon which this homestead STANDS was
purchased in 176S by Ebenezer and
Sarah Bond Howell. Two sons,
Richard and Lewis were among the 40
disguised Indians who in 1774 burned
the cargo of tea that had been stored
in Greenwich N. j.
The captain was afraid to proceed
with it to Philadelphia. Richard and
Lewis distinguished themselves in the
Revolutionary War. Richard was ap-
pointed clerk of the Supreme Court in
17s6 and continued in that position
until 1898 when he was chosen Cover
nor of New Jerseya aand was reelected
s times, consecutively. His son VIM.
Burr Howell was born at Trenton N.
j. in 1877. Although young he greatly
distinguished himself in the war of
1919. He married Margaret Louisa
Kempe and their daughter Varina be-
came Mrs. Jefferson Davis.
There are at present so many people
by the name of Davis in Shiloh that
when a stranger comes in town he
soon learns that he is pretty safe to
address any new face as Mr.. or Mrs.
Davis.
