RE Tries to Sell bulldogs.

is no nobody's business but his own. n
If they want to find out what 1t is they
have got to go somewhere else. says the
San Francisco Call.
But when it comes to talking about
bulldogs he is more likely to tell all he
knows, particularly if he thinks he can
manage to sell one of the vicious crea.

ever. his chances of selling them are
very slim. for he has devoted his time
to that for nearly two years, n he still
owns the ugly brutes.
In appearance the bulldog man is
/ much like the type of h class known
as tough" He wears a ~threadbare suit
of the regulation style. tight-fittinS
and with spring bottom pants. His cap
is of the kin worn by bicyclists.
When the bulldog man first appeared
on the Crawl he said he had just ar

him two bulldog puppies that he was
anxious to sell. They were cute" lit.

meadow was at the disposal of the play
ers. hence they did not mind running
with the ball II being thrown. This
being the ease. the style of play named
after the above institution, and which
is the popular II in our country, did
not prohibit running with the ball. But
then some communities were not so fa-
vcred by nature: the ground was stony.
and in som cases the only places avail
able were paved courts. OF course it
would never do to be thrown on ground
like this, so carrying the ball was pro-
hibited, and the Association game de-
veloped. The evolution of the two styles
was gradual. and each found many ar
dent supporters. SO ardent that when a
convention OF players was called to
formulate rules by which all games
could be governed, neither would yield,

But in 1863 the devotees of the purely

And. following their example. eight
years later the followers Of the othe,

PROPOSED REPAIRS To
JUDICIARY BUILDING

1t has been discovered that some, al
least, of the leaks in the roof of the
Judiciary building are due to the fact
that where the copper guttering is SOL

the action of the sun. This will be
repaired.
1t is the intention of the Depart
ment of Public Works to take down
all the plaster in the courtrooms of
Judge Robinson and Judge Lindsay,
which is in any degree liable to fall
down. The lathing will be whitewash-
ed, and in this condition the court
rooms will be used until it is certain
that the leaks in the roof have been
remedied, and then the ceilings will

is hoped to get along until general

GRAND JURY AND
STANDARD OIL
A Thorough Investigation of
Local Office of
Octopus.

| The Territorial grand jury was in
| session yesterday all day, not adjourn
| ing until almost five o'clock, and it will
take up the work again early this
morning
1t is the Standard Oil investigation
that is thus absorbing it's time and at
tention. A very searching investiga-
ton of all matters that have grown
out of the attempted burning of the
Government Kerosene Warehouse by
Lionel Hart, is being made. A large
number of witnesses have already
been called and examined and a large
number yet remain to be examined.
Aside from the duty imposed on the
grand jury to investigate all charges
of violation of the laws, there is an
other purpose in this investigation.
Hart has been indicted for setting fire
to the government warehouse. He has
confessed to it,. and it is expected that
he will plead guilty. But as there is
wide latitude m the punishment that
may be inflicted, this investigation is
said to have some bearing on the ques-
ton of his punishment If he, in his
wrong doing, was simply following the
lead of someone else, or was merely
particeps criminiS with others, is one
thing. But if instead of this he was
alone in his wrong-doing, and, in adj
dition, when caught, sought to be-
smirch the good name of innocent men,
that is quite another, and it rs felt
that the punishment ought to differ
considerably in the two cases. One
purpose of the grand jury investiga-
ton, therefore, is to determine this
question, especially as some of those
who have already investigated it have
declared it as their opinion that Hart
was not alone in his villainy.
Among those who were examined be-
fore the grand jury yesterday were
Manager Mayer of the local office OF
the Standard Oil Company; Auditor
Fletcher, who was sent here by the
company to audit the books of the
office; a number of bankers, number
of Chinese merchants, and several
others The investigation is following
all the ramifications of the matter that
develop as the investigation proceeds

ANTOINE MANUEL AND
HIS DIVORCE CASES

| Complaint has been made by some
lawyer or lawyers that Antoine Manuel,
messenger for the United States Dis
trict Court, has been practicing law
without a license in divorce matters in
the Circuit court. An effort also seems
to have been made to create the i'm
preston that Judge De Bolt had laid
himself open to censure in the matter.
Manuel speaks very frankly about the
matter. In several cases where friends
or acquaintance of his desired di
vorces and We're unable to pay law
yer's fees, he has prepared the papers
for them and ION their behalf asked
the clerk of Judge De Bolts court to
set them for a hearing, purely form
al matter. When thus set, the parties
appearing before Judge De Bolt. De
Bolt has questioned the witnesses and
granted the divorce or not as the evil
dence warranted, just as he might or
would in any other case where Ht1-
giants appeared without an attorney.
When Manuel heard that his actions
in these matters had been questioned
he went to Attorney General Hemen- |
way and told him frankly all the cir |
his statements so far as
they related to any matter coming |
within Judge De Bolts knowledge be- |
ing fully corroborated by Judge De
Bolt. But while Manuel has undoubt- |
eddy done work that is usually done |
by lawyers, or their clerks, there does
not seem to be any evidence that he |
has practiced law in violation of the |
statute, or that there has been any
collision or evasion of law or mis-
in any case with which |
he has been connected. He admits
that in one, or two cases he was paid
for drawing the papers.
Manuel is a native of the Territory
and taught in the public schools for
several years. He was afterwards en-
ployed by the Board of Health and
mas been messenger of the United
States court almost since its organi-
sation, having been appointed by
Judge Estee.

RHEUMATISM.

So little confidence has the average
man in the various cures for rheuma-
tism that he often suffers for years
without making any effort to find re-
lief. He then finds that it has become
chronic. This is mistake, as the pain
can always be relieved, and in most
cases a cure effected by applying
Chamberlain's Pain Balm. The relief
from pain which it affords is alone
worth many tiEses its cost. It makes

Of Interest to Timber Owners

Timber owners and manufac- turers will be interested in the results of the detailed studies of commercial timber trees which the forest service of the United States department of agriculture is mak- ing. These studies are not con- fined exclusively to the well known trees of recognized value, but owing to the rapid decrease in the supply of our valuable woods, include those cheaper woods whose prop critics are imperfectly known. Such studies of the tupelo gum and western hemlock have done much to overcome the common prejudice against these species and have added materially to their commer- cial importance. Commercial tree studies begin with the tree in the forest and follow it all the way to the finished product in the market.

Clark for Governor

That Governor Kibbey does not expect to hold the office of governor very much longer is now well known. but the fact is being held back for political purposes. In fact, Attorney General Clark, it is known positively, is now trying to get the office. and, of course. he would not try to get the office unless he had the consent of Governor Kibbey.
 Whether this means that Gov. Kibbey will be a candidate for congress remains to be seen, but his friends in Phoenix say that he will make a strong candidate and they are quietly grooming him.
 Clark, it is said. has the indorse- ment of both Kibbey and Kent and feels very hopeful ot knocking the persimmon. The fact that he has shied his castor into the ring has aroused great local interest in the governorship. and people are be- ginning to wonder who are the silent candidates. It is known that Wilson of Tucson wants it from a joint statehood standpoint, but he is now out of the running, and it is thought here that the race is between Clark and Sturges. Phoenix Democrat.

THE KNOCKER

Every colony of bees consists of workers and drones; workers whose time is spent in producing. not only for their own needs, present and future, but for the general good; and drones, who, while they neither add to the general store nor even provide for their own sustenance, still have their place in the general economy,
 Every village or town also con- sists of workers and drones and it has another class, too, not found among insects-the knockers. The drones are enough. in all truth and when so numerous that they consume the surplus produced by the workers, the community retro grades In the case of bees, when this condition is reached, the work CTS ruthlessly apply the only effective remedy, kill off the drones and the colony takes a new lease of life
 Your real knocker is in a class by himself; there is nothing in the animal kingdom like him. He not only does nothing useful him self but he delights in tearing down the work of others. He dare not uproot his neigh bor's trees, nor tear down his house-because the , law does actually protect property but in the case of reputation he is allowed and takes free rein. No public or private enterprise ever meets with his approval. Conscious of his own utter lack of ability or merit he probably blackmails his neighbor in the vain endeavor to disattract from his own worthless self. People of sense are never misled long by the knockers efforts and the enmity of this class is the best patent of honesty and ability that a business man can have. but 1t is the community as whole that suffers. The world is wide and many are the localities offering opportunities to willing workers with capital, knowledge or skill, and as man will not esta blish his home in swamp whose miasmatic air will endanger the health of his family. so he will avoid community whose atmos- phere is charged with blackmail and slander-Nogales Times.
