r TICKLE WINS.
The City of. Asheville Votes Out the
Bar Rooms.

Bar Rooms.
A dispatch from Asheville, N. c.,
says no such sight was ever witness
ed in any city of the South as was
enacted there on Tuesday of last
week when @Asheville by a vote of
nearly 1000 declared for prohibition.
The polling places were thronged
with women and children who bold
ly pleaded with the voters to vote
dry. ~.,
Large delegations of women and
children surrounded each polling
place singing and praying during the
day. The campaign for, and against
prohibition, which has just closed,
has been undoubtedly, the most hot
" contested and keenly interesting
fight of the kind in the history of
Asheville.
The financial and business inter-
ests have been about equally divided,
and each side has worked with much
vim and Vigor, the prohibitionists
being led by w. H. Whitson, a prom
inent business man, as chairman of
the executive committee, while ex-
Representative j. Frazier Glenn, has
acted in the same capacity for the
anti-prohibitionists.
An interesting feature of the cam
paign has been the large number of
parades organized by the prohibi-
ton forces there being parades
composed of children, parades of
women and children, and parades Of
men, tine torch light parade of the
prohibition voters which marched
through the streets Of the city Mon
day night being the largest of the
kind ever seen in Asheville. The wo-
men of the city have taken a most
active part in the fight for prohibi-
ton and their presence at the poll
ing places in large numbers was
somewhat of a novelty in elections
in Asheville.

Governor James K. Vardaman, Of
Mississippi, in an interview given In
reply to Presidents Roosevelt'sspeeeh
at St. Louis, strongly denounced the
presidents policy and called him "a
revolutionists." The governor says.
'"Mr. Roosevelt is apast grand

the great French diplomat, he eyi-

conceal rather than express thoughts.
Within the pile of verbiage there
turks. the most pernici0us principles
and vicious politics that ever wrecked
a republic or destroy the rights OF
the people.
HE has preached purity in poll
tics and at the same time accepted
from the railroads contributions to
corrupt the ballot. He accepts the
office bought for him by criminal
contributions and then turns around
and undertakes to preach political,
honesty to people who corruptly
bought for himNthe Office he Holds.
A wonderful man, indeed! And
more remarkable still is tito me that
the people Of Missouri are caught by
the little cheap fattery and plati-

 While he was passing the street corner a wheel of his buggy became locked in car track, it is said, so that it retarded the movement of the rig and the tongue of the chemical wagon of the fire department, which was coming along the street, caught the carriage and overturned it, throw ing Mr. Smith into the street.
 Mr. Smith had just left the Eos ,1f- flee and was on his way home wden the accident occurred. As the bug gy was overturned MT. Smith was thrown into the street, alighting on his shoulder and hands. He was able to continue on his way home. but yes terday morning when he attempted to come down to the office he was f""""'' to return to his bed on account of his bruises.
 It is declared by the attending phy- sician that MT. Smith is not seriously injured and will be able to come down town in a day or two. His shoulder was bruised and his hands were slight ly lacerated as he fell on the hard street pavement.
 It is declared that the accident could have been much more serious had the fire wagon been going at a rapid rate of speed.

OtD TIME ARIzONAN
 FOUND DEAD IN CREEK
Many Theories As to Cause of Death-Team Stayed ts with Corpse.

PRESCOTT. Ariz., May 2.-Stricken by heart disease while driving team along the Copper Basin road, to fall from the wagon when the team stop ped to drink, striking his forehead on jagged stone, was the lonely death that overlook Louis Burns. a driver for the Ruffner stables, whose dead body was found Saturday afternoon by Charles Atkins who had been sent in search of the man
 The dead man left here Friday af- ternoon to drive with a party of men to the Jackson camp in the Copper Basin district He arrived there safe iy. leaving in the evening for this city, being expected to arrive here about 10 o'clock When he did not put iu an appearance Friday night or Saturday morning. George Runner. owner of the rig which Burns was driy- Ing, sent young Atkins in search of him.
 Atkins had travelled the Copper Ba- sin road to a point where the road crosses small creek, near the old Williams ranch, three miles southeast of this city, when he saw the team standing quietly at the creek, still hitched to the wagon.
 Upon approaching Atkins discovered Burns dead body lying beside the wagon. the head resting in the water. There was wound on the forehead, made by coming in contact with a rock in the fall. One of the reins was lying near the dead man. the other being still in the wagon. The team had apparently not moved after Burns fell from the wagon.
 Atkins placed the dead man in the wagon and made all possible haste back to this city. A coroner's jury was inpanneled, and after viewing the remains and examining several wit nesses. rendered a verdict to the eff feet that Burns came to his death from wound in the forehead caused by falling from the wagon.
 Others, however, take a different view of the manner in which Burns met his death He had long been a sufferer from tuberculosis and it is known that his heart was affected. From the position in which the body was lying when found. together with the fact that he had apparently fallen from the wagon when the team was drinking at the creek. leads to the belief that he was dead when he fell.
 It is thought that, weakened by dis ease, his heart stopped performing its normal functions as he drove along. the body remaining in the seat until it was thrown out by the sudden stop ping of the team at the creek
 The fact that the horses were quiet ly standing at the creek edge when found leads to the natural supposition that they stopped to drink. and heal ing no voice bid them "gee long Pe- mained where they were. Had the team been running away, or going at rapid enough rate to throw Burns from the wagon. il Is not likely they would have stopped at the creek and remained there

 4 FIGHT BY INSTALLMENTS- While engaging in friendly scuffle yesterday at Berryhill's corner, two well known Phoenix boys of 'steen years lost their tempers and went at
 it in earnest. As they probably did not desire to establish a record as pugilists and let it be known that they were ready to meet all corners. the names of the principals in the bout will not be given. The fight is said to have started over the larger boy knocking off the others hat. Imme- diately they retired to the alley back of Berryhill's and hostilities came to a focus. After a few swats at each oth- CT. it was decided that this alley was not intended for an arena, a Ia Gold field. so they hunted up another al- ley. but this was also not good place for an eye blacking event. so finally they strolled over to the lots back UT the Olu tdpildl lnlhS ana lnere. witnessed by a good natured follow ing. the second installment was pulled off. They fought according to the Marquis of Swatsberry's rules. with no slugging in the clinches. The bot tie holders and seconds backed off and the bare fists began to puncture the air. Some of the jabs landed with resonant smacks. One of the boys bored in with his head down. his wool in the others eyes; his antagonist was game. though smaller. but ever now and then an upper cut would cause him to grunt. "Goodness," Blood ap- peared on the scene and they were very nearly decided to shake hands, but changed their minds and thought they wanted some more, as the sam- pie had been fine. A half hours time was called, and it had about passed when a policeman came around the corner and all differences were ce- mented in the appearance of the com mon enemy. Half minute after there wasn't a boy in Phoenix that knew about a fight or ever heard of such a thing.

Something like a hundred thousand white wings were killed and formed the basic principle of a Mulligan stew that was later pre- pared. other principles were intro duced embracing every variety of game from catfish and jack rabbits to chicken hawks and it is said no stew just like it was ever made before. After the picnic dinner while every body was feeling good, each one help ed throw all the others into the river.
