Gambling Abolished In Arizona.

Monday the Territorial Council passed the Hunt bill, which re- pealed that section of the revised statutes of Arizona that upon pay ment of license taxes exempted gambling from the pains and pen alties prescribed in the preceding section of the same statutes. That section prohibits gambling (the usual banking games) under severe penalties. The succeeding section nullifed it, and as all games dealt pay the icense prescribed, the pro- hibition was imperative. Repeal of the excepting section leaves the prohibitory section in full force.
 Having passed the Council the bill went to the House where it was taken up Thursday and passed unanimously, without amendment.
 The bill was returned to the Council, engrossed and passed to the Governor, who quickly affixed the executive signature, and the bill became a law. It becomes effective at midnight March 31st.
 The sweeping change in the law thus made ends one of the recog- nized institutions of Arizona, and one of it's most important indus tries Arizona had to do it. That was ali there was to it. Congress was fixed to do it, and held off its hand only under pledges that the territory would do so if Congress would desist.

81 On Saturday evening, May 18th, 1901,
Sarah A. Pratt, beloved wife 81 John a.
Eastman, aged q years Z days.
The funeral services were held from
the family residence at Carlisle on Tues
day afternoon and large concourse Of
old friends and neighbors testified by
their presence their respect for the de-
ceased and their sympathy for the sor-
rowing relatives. The interment was
made in the family cemetery on tie
homestead.
The deceased was one Of the pioneers
of Carlisle coming there in 1880 with
her husband. She was noted as a hard
working and energetic woman and to
the last illness was ambitious to be
about her home duties. She wesa good
neighbor and friend. Many of the old
er residents will remember kind hospi-
talities at her hands in the
early days when such kindness was so
greatly appreciated, by the stranger in
the land. Her aged husband survives
her and number of grown children
and grand children, who have the SYM
pathy of a large circle of friends.
81 have fought good fight, I have
finished my course, have kept the
faith.-II Tim. W."

The Contest

The declamatory contest at city hall
on Monday evening was fairly we'll at
tended and the exercises were of con-
siderable interest. Five young ladies'
rendered declarations in very accept
able manner. Misses leila Switzer,
Laura Douglas, Mabel Aylen, Elsie Nc.
Connachie, and Calista Noyes. The
judges awarded precedence in the order
thus given. Misses Switzer and Douglas
being given 253 and PAT out of possible
300. The judges were Rev. Armstrong
and Prof. McNesen of Emerson and
Prof. Allen of St. Vincent. The gener-
al judgment of the audience agreed with
that of the judges, all making the places
of the two leaders very close to each
other. The schools gave some excellent
double quartet music during the pro-
gram. The winner, Miss Switzer, will
represent this school at the state con-
test to be held at Grand Forks to-mor-
row, and while there will be very large
number of contestants there, reports
says perhaps fifty or more, we are sure
that Miss Switzer will at least do as
we'll as the average. In the contest
there, there will be preliminary "try-
out" in the day, and only few of the
best will appear in the finals before the.
evening audience. We wish leila good
fortune in her trial.

The city will make several improve

put in between the bank and Cavaliers
store, with sewer piping connecting the
gutter with the opposit side of the
! street. Concrete crossings will also be
put in between the International Hotel
and King & Booker and ono across from
the city hall to McConnachie's corner,
with tile underneath. The vexed ques-
ton of substantial crossings at these
places where the principal traffic is car
ried on will be thing of the past. We
understand it is the unanimous opinion
of the city fathers not to construct any
repairs of this kind in the future from
any thing but concrete.
