RECORD OF COMPLICATIONS.
Steps Taken to Diminish Number of
 Fires in This Country.

In report to fire insurance under writers John B. Laidlaw, of Toronto, Canada, gives a summary of the rec ords of great conflagrations in the last 150 years. He shows how the law of average tends\ to keep the number of big fires nearly the same in one year as in another. Here. for example, is a table showing the conflagrations

The new RESTRICTION
ducks" GROWERS"
The Laws Of The Last Legislature
Brought Prominently to the Notice
of SaIoonkeepers.

The GROWER" the duck or what
ever may be the name of that recep-
tacle by which beer is transported
from the saloon to the bosom of the
family, received a slight puncture yes
terday by which its usefulness will be
greatly curtailed in the future
In the hands of the male adult. the
duck is as effective weapon as ever
but in the hands of any other person it
has a great hole in it now. There are
many households in Phoenix to which
no male adult belongs, and the women
folks either have to sneak up to the
side door of the saloon in person. or
subsidize the small boy and arm him
with letters credential, duly accredit-
ing him to the saloon keeper This has
been the favorite expedient in many
households.
Complaint had been made to JUS

charging that beer had been sold to
minors. The case was heard yesterday
and it was brought out that two or three
small boys had been buying beer there
by bottle or bucket for a woman living
in the neighborhood. The boys usually
brought an order for the beer. though
sometimes they merely transmitted 4
verbal order which was honored. One
hoy though. wanted a bottle of beer
on his own account and forged the
name of the woman to the order. He
got drunk, and exposure followed.
Then came the complaint. There was
no denial of the above related circum-
stances, but in view of the fact that
the saloon had been so law abiding
and the further fact that the practice
of which complaint was made was so
general, only a nominal fine was i'm
posed.

ON GOOD BEHAVIOR
A Wool Grower Who Developed a
Mania for Making a Cane Collection.

The following sensational and almost
scandalous disclosure concerning a
prominent citizen of northern Arizona
appeared in the Journal Miner of yes
terday. His Phoenix friends would
not have thought it of him:
Harry Hibben. a prominent politi-
clan and wool grower of Coconino
county. who is compelled to walk with
the aid of a beautiful silver headed
cane, by reason of injuries received
recently in being thrown from a wagon,
was mourning the loss of said cane,
which mysteriously disappeared last
evening about 9 o'clock, while he was
playing cards with few friends at the
Winsor. He Immediately reported the
loss to Night officer Tex Ferguson,
who at once commenced a vigorous
search for ii.
After visiting various resorts in the
city the officer noticed the CLEAN of the
silver head of the cane under the cleo
trio light, in the hands of a stranger,
whom he Immediately placed under ar
rest, and whom, despite the latter's
most eloquent protests. he was march
ing to the city bastile, when Attorney
E. F. Doe of Flagstaff happened along.
Attorney Doe, who has clients in
many jails in the territory, was hailed
by the man under arrest. He halted
and recognized his friend in trouble to
be no less a parsonage than Bob Wal
ton, the prominent race horse man and
wool grower of Flagstaff. Attorney
Doe, who has attended badger fights
and other similar festivals of a sporty
nature with Walton, at once volun-
teered to furnish the required bond for
his friends appearance in the justice
court today and Walton was released
from custody, with the understanding
that he would accompany the officer to
the owner of the cane for Identified
ton. The meeting was an agreeable
one and Walton promised his comrades
from the Skylight city that he would
confine his questionable transactions
to sheep stealing in the future if prom
ised immunity from prosecution this

KELVIN WANTS RANGERS
TO SUPPRESS DISORDER
A Petition Which Recalls hr. Wesdin's
Stern Opposition to a standing
Army"

II will be remembered that one. of
the favorite legislative aims of Hon.
Thomas F Weedin of Pinal county
was TO place the Arizona rangers
among the things that were. a bill 10
that effect was introduced by Hon
Eugene Brady O'Neill of this county
but it had no more earnest and
consistent champion than Mr.. Weed
in. His powerful speech. on the worse
than uselessness of the rangers is not
forgotten. He was backed in his OPP
position, TO the organization by the
people of his own county or at least
by all of them who could be commune
Gated with on the subject.
He read letter after letter from the
people of Pinal as well as former resi-
dents in other parts of the territory
urging the abolition of the rangers.
Aside from their entire worthlessness
he pointed out that they were a bad
advertisement for the territory, a slam
on its reputation for orderliness. The
peace officers he said had always been
able to cope with any situation which
might arise and be declared that if the
rangers had any effect upon the terri
tory it was to make it lawless When
the abolition bill failed Mr. Weedin &C
cepted what was in his opinion the
next best thing. a reduced force Of
rangers.
All this is brought to mind now. two
months after the heated discussion

COPPERS RALLY
 AT THE CLOSE
Advance a Point from the Opening Prices-Further Advance Not Looked for Until Metal Market Is Settled Strong Upturn in Cotton.
(By I. N. Kinsey)

GLOBE, August 2.--Paine, Webber & Co., of Boston say. After such n drag as we have had it is unreasonable, to expect sharp rally. The whole list held well during the day and towards the close advanced point from the opening prices. There is a big short in terest which is nervous and sentiment is getting little better. A two or three-point advance is probable and then the situation may look different. The speculative stocks at present are Amalgamated, Anaconda, Union Pa cifie and Reading and they are as ever and it will take settlement of the metal market to change them very much.
 The stock market in Boston and New York was very inactive and few shares changed hands. Old Dominion was sold in the morning at $40, and rallied to- wards noon to $41.25 but closed weak at $40.75. Utah Consolidated showed considerable strength, closing at $44.37, point above Thursdays low mark. This stock is paying about l3 per cent interest on its presnt selling price. The recent strike of ore in the Denn-Arizona is accountable for the rapid advance of this stock in the face of declining market. It closed strong at $ll.S7 bid. Residents of Lower Pinto are very enthusiastic over the recent strike of ore at the Arizona National The ore body encountered is said to be sixteen feet in width and will average l5 per cent copper. A report was eur rent yesterday that the property of the Queen Copper Mining company was sold to Los Angeles parties for a considera- tion of $250,000. This, however, could not be verified
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1907-08-03

think the turning point has been reach ed and look for an upward tendency. Railroad stocks and the New York list looks very strong and may stimulate the copper stocks. The bearish movement on foot to depress the metal has had quite an influence over the copepr stocks, but when actual conditions of the copper metal situation are realized we look for strong upward movement.
 Good copper stocks are very low. We feel that the market is a purchase on all reeessions and those who follow this plan will be benefited in the long run.
 Denn-Arizona is making quite rec ord again, having sold at SIP today and in good demand. Several small for tunes were made in this stock some six months ago Globe Consolidated holds strong and all loose stock is promptly picked up around $14 to $l4.50. Ma tional is also in good demand and will advance shortly. Superior & Boston continues to make good showing at the mine and will have it's effect on the stock shortly. Superior & Boston sold around $2.75 today. Calumet & Globe continues to find good ore and large new ore bodies will undoubtedly be uncovered in the near future. No stock is changing hands at $l.50. Globe-Ari zona s new ore strike looks more prom. ising than ever and large quantities of ore is being blocked out.

POISONOUS INSECT
KILLS A CHILD

PHOENIX, Oct. 29.-The dead body
of Antonio Gomez, a 5-year-old boy,
was brought in from the Aqua Fria by
his parents yesterday. The exact
cause of his death is unknown, but it
is thought that it was caused by the
bite or sting of a poisonous insect.
There had been no medical attend
ance and an inquest was held yester-
day afternoon before Acting Coroner
tombstone. The father of the boy
thought that death had resulted from
thorn in the foot, but that is only
conjecture and the theory is not borne
out by the circumstances.
The father is engaged in clearing a
tract of ground along the Aqua Fria
three miles north of the Moore place.
A week ago the child was playing
about the camp and suddenly he gave
a cry of pain. He ran to his mother,
who found slight wound in the bot
tom of the foot. The boy was quite
sick and for a day and a half ate
nothing. Although there was no no
ticeabIe swelling of the foot. the
wound became 1nffamed and vascular
| in appearance. 1t was opened in a
| search for the supposed thorn, but
nothing was found. The flesh about
the wound sloughed OFF, but there was
| no other manifestation.
In a couple of days the child recoy-
cred his appetite, slept well and did
not complain of pain. Two days ago
he became feverish and refused to
| eat. When death came it was with
out warning.
There was an entire absence of
signs of lockjaw, which usually ac-
| companies a severe wound by thorn,
nail or puncture Of the hand or foot
and there were none of the symptoms
which follow the sting of scorpion
or the more common insects. There
is species of black spider, frequent
| ly called the trap door" spider, al
most as large as a traantula, whose
bite the Mexicans regard as certainly
fatal. There is no violent pain like
that which follows the bite Of the
tarantula, the sting of the scorpion
or the poisonous ant or the bite OF
| the rattlesnake. The patient fingers
for a week, sometimes longer, and
then the poison seems to act suddenly
on the heart
A few years ago the 17-year-old son
of Jules Gowett was bitten by one OF
these spiders. which was killed at the
time. The young man fingered for a
week and during ali that time his con
| dition excited no alarm.

(Tucson Starr
In company with Chief OF Police
Hopley, a Star reporter yesterday
morning drove to the city rock pile
on the Hospital road west of the city,
and watched the city prisoners at
work taking stone for the streets OF
Tucson.
Twelve men were at york on the
pile under the watchful eye of Officer
Louis GARLIC, some working with
picks, some with shovels and still
others with heavy bars, prying the
loose stone out of position.
The men have been working about
three weeks and more than two hun
bred tons Of rock have been taken
out, most of which is piled up near
the quarry. Only one load of rock
is being hauled away daily, but Chief
Hopley stated that within the next
week or two a number of teams will
be put into action The rock will be
dumped in lower Congress street, I'M
til that thoroughfare is leveled, and
will then be placed wherever needed.
The men on the rock pile crew
leave the city jail every morning
shortly after o'clock, and are not
brought back until In the evening
Lunches are taken along in the morn
ing for the noon meal, and the mel
are given an hours rest at midday
The rock pile is a great thing, said
Chief Hopley on the return trip. THE
rock taken out is not only of great use
to the city, but also the fact that Tue
son has a rock pile upon which all
city prisoners are forced to work
tends greatly to rid the city of unde-
sirable characters. A good percent
age of the tramps who pass through
this section of the territory would
rather spend a week Of two idling
around in jail securing three meals a
day and a place to sleep, than to
keep on travelling However, when
they learn that they must work, and
hard work. for their board while in
Tucson, they viii fight shy of the city
Also in every city and town there is
always a certain class of people, gen.
orally habitual drunkards, who spend
about two-thirds of their time in Jail.
| However, when these people find that
| they must swing a pick eight or ten
hours a day for the benefit of the
city, it tends greatly to brace them
UP.
~Oh. tell you the moral effect of
rock pile is something wonderful.
