THE COMMUNITY MOURNS.


 The news of the deaths on Monday morning of Wilbur Kilborn and Mrs Earle Booth came as great shock to the community. Both will be greatly missed and both are much needed, MT Kilborn leaving three little girls and one boy, and Mrs Booth leaving five girls and oneibOy.
 The funeral of MT Kilborn was private one on Tuesday afternoon at 3 30, owing to the nature of the dis ease with which he died, which makes it doubly sad. The floral tributes cov- ering the grave were beautiful, among them being large clusters of white and pink roses from the High school pupils, large bunch of beautiful Easter lil- lies from Burr HOlliSter, a cross and lovely flowers from his own family and parents. At some time in the near fu- MT Kilborn was one who was inter ested in all work of progressive character. He gave lessons in draw ing in the High school, his recom- pense being the satisfaction of watch ing the development of talent in his pupils, and being an artist himself he obtained excellent results in his class. In the church, Sunday school, commit nifty and home his loss will be greatly felt. II M. l.. T.

He had built up for himself a 1ourishing business in the valley and at the time of his death was planning for more extended trade during the summer months. He held an envi- able reputation for honesty and square dealing and his influence made for everything that was good and whole some in his home town. A large cir Gle of friends and acquaintances will miss him at his place of business and much sympathy is extended to the wife and parents in their bereavement

A 200-pound Mouse

Following close upon the killing of 9 -.,stv.pound rat, at Glen Jean, by an .r,erprising citizen of that town, comes ,b, news of a 200-pound mouse, seen by usIlowell Dabney, at Smithers, during the night,
 The mouse, as described by Mir. Dab, rav was a pale gray color with mauvc trimmings, it's eyes of sky blue with borders of vermillion, and its ears a spnburnt yellow, striped with fiddler s green
 Yesterday wagon left the local wholesale house with a quantity of ,,biskv and beer for a saloon at Smith .rs but broke down on the way, and Mir Dabney was left to watch the loda rnti new wagon came this morning. Mir. Debuey says he first saw the enor- mons mouse shortly after 9 O clock, ,oming down a mulberry tree backward. The enormous size of the rodent fright ,ped him, and he remained quiet while {, consumed a quantity of his whisky and beer. In the midst of it's feast it became frightened at a passing K. X N train and ran back toward the creek, stepping on mr. Dabney and rendering him unconscious.
 Mr. Dabney's remarkable story is borne out by the fact that a quantity of the intoxicants had disappeared and Mr. pabuey was unconscious when he WAS found this morning.-Charleston Gazette

BETTER ARIZONA
 FREIGHT RATES
5. A. Packard, Leader in Fight for Lower Rates, Says It Will Take $10,- 900 to Carry Determinations Before Interstate Commerce Commission.

B. A. Packard, leader in the move ment to get better freight rates, ad dressed the board of trade this morn ing, outlining to them the plans of the Arizona Cattle Growers association and explaining that $l0,O00 will be necessary to carry the discrimination made by railroads in Arizona before the interstate commerce commission says the Phoenix Gazette.
 Packard promised that the Cattle Growers association will contribute $l,O0O of the $l0,000 necessary, and that several individuals have promised to subscribe larger amounts, among them being one wholesale dealer, who stated some time ago that he would give as much as $l,000.
 To get the concerted assistance of 'au the commercial organizations in Arizona cities which believe they are being discriminated against by the rail. roads, Packard asked that the board of trade appoint a committee to take the matter up by correspondence Immi- grafton Commissioner J. w. Crenshaw and Elliott Evans were appointed to look after this end.
 During his remarks Packard told of several inequalities that now exist in the freight business, one of them be- ing that it costs $l27 to ship ear of cattle from Phoenix to Los Angeles, while Texas cattle raisers can ship cattle by the carload to Los Angeles for Sl23.4O per ear. They ship through Maricopa and from points 400 or 800 miles further distant from Los Angeles than Phoenix.

American Slang in Rome

The universal spread of American slang is amazing, and the globe trotter meets with it in the most unexpected places. Last October two Americans wandering about the Piazza d 'Espagna, in Rome, were aeeosted by one of the innumerable small boys who sell postal card pictures of the Holy City. He held out a sheaf of postal cards and offered them for sale, stating the price in Italian. The Americans did not care to buy, and, like his guild the continent over, he followed them and became a bit of nuisance. He was such a merry-eyed little chap that they had not the heart to speak harshly to him. At last, however, they felt obliged to say "no" rather decidedly. It was then that he surprised them and gave them queer little pull at their Ameri
 can heartstrings by saying, his black eyes snapping with fun and the mag
 nitude of the achievement: "'Skeedoo! Skeedoo! Twenty -thr-r-reeel Then he vanished with burst of laughter.
 But the sequel was equally interest ing. Late that same afternoon the same couple came from the Catacombs into the white glare of the Appian Way five miles from the Piazza d'Espagna. d They had hardly stepped into the street before the same urchin was at them again. and when he recognized them he was as amused as they. This time he did not offer them any cards, but simply held out his hand and said: "Skeedoo, Skeedoo! Twenty -thrr-reeel And he got his generous soldi, as he knew quite well he would.-New York Times.

Jelly of my apples made; l joyful ate !; Sickish often; no delight.
 The number of letters in each word represents the date of the first Satur- day in the particular month to which it corresponds. Thus "jelly," repre- senting January, has five letters, so that the first Saturday in January is the 5th of that month; "of," repre- senting February, has two letters, so the first Saturday in February is the 2d of the month, and so on through all of the twelve months.
 Each word of the twelve, excepting "of" and "I," has it's first letter the same as the month it represents, thus "jelly" begins with "j" because Jan uary begins with "J," "my" begins with "m" because March begins with "M," and so on all through with the above two exceptions.
 Having thus ascertained the date of the first Saturday, the date of every other Saturday in the month is got by the addition of the necessary number of sevens, from which it is but a sim. pie step to any intermediate day. For example, to know the day on which Christmas day falls this year, delight" " standing for December, has seven let ters, so the first Saturday in December is the 7th day of the month, the sec ond Saturday the l4th, the third the 2lst; 25 being four days more gives Wednesday, which is four days from Saturday, the 2lst.-Tit-Bits

SAM NEWHOUSE TESTIFIES
Millionaire Mining Man Tells Of Al
legged Swindle of Lee
Bunch.

Samuel Newhouse. the millionaire min
ing magnate. was on the stand three
hours yesterday afternoon as the star wit
ness for the state in the prosecution of
Lee Bunch. charged with frauduently
representing the quality Of certain mining
properties in Idaho.
Mr. Bunch was arrested some months
ago at the instigation of Mr.. Newhouse,
who charges that Mr.. Bunch misrepre-
scented the quality Of ore i'm sacks at the
Commoner mine. near Boise, and obtained
IS. 200 from Newhouse TO develop this prop
erty. Though the complaint charges only
the fraudulent obtaining of S.10O. Mr..
Newhouse claims 10 have invested about
$4,000 on the strength OF these repre-
sensations.
on the stand Newhouse swore that
Bunch had claimed there was $500 worth
of ore I'm sacks at the mine. and that he
afterwards learned these sacks were filled
granite. He was put through a severe
cross examination by Ashby Snow, attor-
ney for the defense and was still on the
stand when the court adjourned at .
o'clock The case will be continued Mon
day morning at 10 O'Clock.
Charles G. Parsons, attorney for the
NewhOuse interests, appears as special
prosecutor in the case, assisted by Assist
ant County Attorney David Hague, and
Mr. Bunch is represented by EX-Govern-
or J. r. Morrison OF Idaho. and Ashby
Snow Several mining experts and as
savers have been subpoenaed as witnesses
on either side and much of the evidence
will be of an expert character. relating
to the quality and depth of the ore at
the mine represented by Bunch.

night the feasting will begin. Edible

other Chinese delicacies. with rice wines.

Fire crackers and Chinese explosives
will form a prominent part in the OBJ
servance of the festive occasion. The
noise OF the discharge of the fire crackers
is believed to be abhorrent to all evil
spirits who endeavor to intrude them
selves into the joyous feast. The sacred
part of the observance of the New Year
will be held in the Chinese joss house on
Plum alley.

ing the din that arises from Chinatown
viii be accompanied by a combination
of the vilest. most obnoxious smells that
ever aSSailed human nOstriiS from burn
ing punk and Chinese perfumed incense
boarded carefully all year for this grand
festive Occasion-the advent Of the Chi
nese New Year.
The tom toms will be beaten. the Gym
balls will clash and above all the foulest
odOrs that can be produced will be watt
ed aloft until the good gods are appeased
and the evil gods are driven out in order
that no bad luck shall come To the Ce-
lestials the coming year.
The length of the Chinese New Year
depends upon the amount of prosperity
enjoyed by the natives of the flowery
kingdom during the year just past. II
usually lasts about sixteen days. This
year, however the slant-eyed inhabitants
of Salt Lake will observe but six days in
feasting. Fortune has not smiled on the
wOrshipers of Confucius OF late. Last
spring the San Francisco Chinatown was
destroyed by the earthquake and hun
dreds of Celestials persisted in the ruins.
Just now the Chinese who are at home
in the land of their ancestors are in the
throes OF a terrible famine. Therefore
IL is with a saddened heart that the hea-
