Tim NardelIi Cleared.

A case of considerable interest was
tried before Judge Address last
Wednesday in which Tim Nardelli,
the saloon man of Metcalf, was tried
on the charge of aggravated assault.
Two women had been fighting and
a third started to interfere with the
trouble as Naldelli was separating
tie fighting women. When she came
up he pushed her to one side and later
took her up to have her arrested. She
resisted and in trying to force her to
come with him he tore her clothing.
The saloon of Carmelo Capelli adjoins
that of Nardelli and apelliinterfered
and later induced the girl to have
Nardelli arrested, there being an old
grudge between the two men. 1t was
brought out in the hearing that the
affair was all done through spite work
and upon the evidence shown, Nardelli
was turned loose.-Morenci Leader

The Clifford RumOrS.

There has been considerable CON-
ment and speculation in this vicinity
over the report current throughout
the valley that Harry Clifford, who
left here about four months ago, has
been sent to the penitentiary in In
diana. The information of this dis
aster to Mr.. Clifford, it appears, came
in letter from his daughter to the
daughter of Adam Welker, who lives
southwest of town. The girl is under
stood to have stated that her papa
had been sent to the penitentiary for
ten years, presumably for some Of
fense committed years ago when he
was young man.
The Bulletin is entirely without in
formation as to the facts or circum-
stances, but offers the suggestion that
if Mr.. Clifford has really met with
this disaster the people of this county
should make a strong and united ef-
fort to help him. He resided here
in every way an exemplary citizen
and it is contrary to every considera-
tion of justice that he should now be
made to suffer for some indiScretion
of youth. the matter should be in
vestigated and steps taken to bring
the facts of Mr.. Clifford's life here
before the proper

A director of the Old Dominion
company says: "The Old Dominion
company with its present high CO J.
per costs can pay 81 per share per
annum on 1S-cent copper, but it could
not do so on l5-cent copper. Our
costs, however, are steadily decreas-
ing but unfortunately they are not
decreasing in the same ratio as is the
price of copper. In six months from
now Old Dominion costs should be
materially lower. We are now re-
ceiving IS per cent. of our sulphur
requirments within the limits of the
Globe camp and of this percentage
80 to GO per cent. is coming from the
Old Dominion property. We have
stopped the treatment of NacoZari
concentrates and will soon stop using
Greene Consolidated concentrates.
We are receiving lump sulphides
from California and from the Shat.
tuck-Arizona company. Our under
ground developments are showing
steady improvement and in another
month we will be down to the 10th
level from a winze sunk from the 14th
level crosscut."

Tnat the local OIL GERS intend Kidding
the district of those knights of pest.
whose main claim to distinction is
the fact that they live by the shame
Of women, whom they beat frequent
IL, is evidenced by the activity along
this line, and the capture of l. E.
Grif1l1 on this charge last week. For
some time past the officers have had
under surveillance 4 number of men
whom they suspected of being eligi-
bic to this class of vagrants, and at
regular intervals, as soon as they can
get sufficient evidence, place these
men under arrest. Griffin was one of
this suspect class, and Deputy Sheriff
Bill White took him into custody.
When brought before Justice Hogan,
Griffin pleaded not guilty, and was
released on 800 bail, to appear for
trial. There are several others in
the district whose habits are under
investigation, and it is probable that
when the drag-net is pulled in suffi-
cient evidence to drive them from
the community or put them in the
chain gang will be forthcoming. AL
most invariably when these cases
come to trial in the past the very
women whom the law contemplates
protecting, appear as benefactors of
the accused, not only furnishing bond,
but paying fines. In these cases the
defendants usual plea has been that
he was employed about the house,
generally making beds, carrying
drinks, or something about as useful.

Population for Douglas of 1890 is In
dicdted.

The city directory which the Inter
national-American is publishing and
/ which will be ready for distribution
I by August 20, on the lowest possible
estimate for verify, indicates a popu-
lation for Douglas of 10, 100. En-
bracing Pirtleville, the local suburb,
which in reality is an integral part
! of Douglas, the city has population
of IL, 300. These figures represent
for Douglas larger population than
that shown for any city in the terri
tory at the last federal census.
In reaching these figures the pub
lishers have used the multiple of 24.
There are 1876 entries in the direc-
tory in Douglas and 4l4 in Pirtleviile.
Multiplying the total population of
Douglas and PirtlevilIe by p, thus
allowing a fair estimate for married
females, adult unmarried females
living at home and children, the esti-
mate of IL 300 for the city is reached.
That this is eminently conservative
is shown by the fact that in eastern
OlllCS I'll lCOlOlJ puollShOio GoS al mul-
tiple of four or five. The disCrep-
ancy in the multiple used in the west
and in the east is that in the west
there is d larger proportion of un-
married men.
The publishers of the directory
have gotten out a book that should
be of inestimable value. Il has long
been an absolute necessity, and the
new directory is SO complete that for
purposes of reference it will prove
invaluable.
Outside of the names in it, prOmi-
nent business blocks, the board of
school directors, city officials, city
wards, fire wards, churches, public
