Cost of Living in Switzerland.

Geneva, until about twenty years ago had the reputation of being cheap place in which to live. By degrees it has become more and more expensive, until the point has been reached where a prominent woman who spends her winters in New York and her summers here has made the assertion that the necessaries of life cost more in Geneva than they do in New York. The in- crease in the cost of these necessaries was already marked in the years 1904 and 1905, but the customs tariff which went into effect January l, 1906, gave a new impulse to the advance.
 There are very few things that have not advanced in price. Bread, meat, wine and chocolate are all on the in- crease. Milk, butter and eggs have reached prices never known before. Nearly everything being dearer, shop keepers, shoemakers, laHndresses, bar bers, fuel dealers, all follow the move ment with higher rates. Cotton man. ufactures are almost the only articles that are cheaper. The crops have been far under the average this year both in quantity and quality, owing to the cold season, and this has tendency to increase prices.-Daily Consular and Trade Reports.

Worked Both Ways.

There is young artist in Washing ton who classes himself as of the i'm pressionistic school, and who, being somewhat out in drawing, generally makes up for his lack of technique by spreading color recklessly and counting on distance for his effect.
 At an amateur exhibition he once hung one of his most extraordinary performances.
 "Well," said friend whom the artist had taken to see his work. "I don want to flatter you, old chap, but that is far and away the best stuff you have ever done. l congratulate you. !"
 Much pleased, the artist was receiv- ing the compliment with becoming mod osty, when he chanced again to glance at the picture-and turned very red. The committee had hung it upside down.
 Hurrying to the head of the com mittee he was about to launch into a loud complaint, when he was informed of the good news that an hour before the picture had been sold for $61. The original price mark had been 3D. s.

BADLY SCARED BY
 A MOUNTAIN LION
CHARLIE COX, GLOBE CONTRACT OR, HAS EXCITING ENCOUNTER
 WHILE WALKING TO PHOENIX.

Charlie Cox, who was returning to Phoenix after long absence, had an encounter with mountain lion the other day, says the Republican. Mir. Cox and two other young men started from Globe on foot for Phoenix, coming by the way of Roosevelt Arriving there one of the party decided to stay and Mr. Cox and his remaining com. panion set out with a procession of oil wagons for Mesa. At Fish Creek hill the wagons went into camp for the day, but Mir. Cox being desirous of reaching Phoenix without delay pushed on on foot.
 Passing Tortilla Flats he mounted the summit and was passing down into draw on this side when he heard a scream which elevated his hat. He had brought twenty-two rifle with him as far as Tortilla Flats, where govern ment employe offered him SIP for it. That, he thought, was more than he could get for it anywhere else in the United States. He could buy a better gun for less money in Phoenix. So he sold it, but when he heard that scream he woudl have paid $40 for the weapon. He had not even a pocket knife.
 He picked couple of rocks and threw them in the direction of the scream and heard scrambling in the bushes. Then the scream was repeated a little behind him and looking over his shoulder he saw the lion standing not more than thirty feet in his rear with his head thrown up, snuffing the air like horse. He also looked in the moon light almost as big as a horse.
 Mir. Cox hit the trail, and for the next mile or two he attained speed which he thinks has never been sur, passed. He finally brought up at Ware s place, where he spent the night
 Mir. Cox left here several years ago and went to Globe about the time that camp was entering upon it's great boom. He remained there until the San Francisco fire, when he went to hat city to take part in its reconstruction. After that he returned to Globe and which he followed successfully until the late depression set in.
 He is of the opinion that it will not be long until things will be there as they need to be, but now the people are pretty long faced. It was a great relief for him to get among the broad faced people of this valley.

FAMOUS LICENSE
 CASE |s SETTLED
JUDGE DOAN GIVES DECISION IN ACCORD WITH REGENT ONE
 BY JUDGE NAVE

The celebrated Arborn license case has probably been settled, the city be- ing given the decision on demurrer last Wednesday by Judge Doan at Tomb stone, says the Review. As it will be remembered, this case has been strenu- ously fought on every point by the de fendant. who is at present conducting barber shop at IS Brewery gulch.
 The case originated some time ago with the City of Bisbee bringing suit against Robert Arborn for conducting barber shop without securing a li- eense of $5 per chair. Judge Doan decided that the prosecution should be in the name of the territory instead of the city and at that time intimated that the justices had no jurisdiction in cases of violation of the city ordinances, but it was not necessary for him to give a judicial decision on the point and he did not do so. The present case was based on further violations of the city ordin- ance for doing business without a li- cense and was brought in the name of the territory, The principal question argued by the defendant was that under the statute the justice did not have the jurisdiction, but the court which is seen by the decision, has held otherwise. This case applies to violations of the license ordinance and so far as the for mer intimation of lack of jurisdiction is concerned. amounts to a reversal.
 When seen on the matter, City At torney Neale said: ''In eases of vio- lations of other ordinances which the city has power to pass and declare mis- demeanors, the prosecution will still be in the name of the territory of Arizona, but the fines will be collected by the city and paid into the city treasury.
 ''The ruling of the court was only on the demurrer. The case must be formally tried and submitted, and as there is no dispute about the facts the present decision settles the matter ''
 This case was tried twice in the jus tice courts and twice appealed. In the second ease the jurisdiction was sus. tained. The decision is in accord with one recently rendered by Judge Nave of Globe.
 It will be remembered that the last ease was tried before Judge Burdick in the first week in August, being con. tinued from day to day until the 14th, when Arborn was fined s. Notice of appeal was filed the same day

crookedest Railroad in the World

Grading is in progress in East Los Angeles on the erookedest railroad in the world. Compared with it the ia nous Mount Tamalpais road, which now has the squirming record, is as straight as Mexican s hair
 It will take two miles of track to cover stretch not more than three blocks running north and south, and not more than that running east and west. It is claimed by engineers that there will not be single straight rail in the two miles of track; every one will be curved. The road is designed as an extension to the Griffin avenue street railroad line, and will open up for residence the highest tract of land in the city.-Los Angeles Express.

DO Net Want For Sale" Signs.

A meeting of a recently formed
organization of real estate men of
Wenatchee will be held in the rooms
of the Commercial club tonight at
1880 to discuss matters of import
ance to the real estate brokerage
business of this city.
One of the important matters to
be taken up will be that of attempt
ing to secure an agreement that no
firm shall place For Sale" cards
upon any property it has listed. 1t
is argued that the real estate men
here have no exclusive lists and that
to begin placarding the property for
sale will immediately cause all firms
to place For Sale" signs in self
defense, and the result will be that
tbree-fourths of the real estate in
the city will be covred with from one
to eighteen signs. This, it is argued,
will in no way benefit the real estate
men, but will give visitors and pros
pective buyers a poor idea of the city
as it will appear that everyone is
trying to sell his property and move
away, while the contrar. g re case.

PROSSER PAIR ARRESTED

Two offenders from Prosser are in

names of the couple are Oscar John
son, aged IS, and Rose Norris, aged

ton received from Prosser. Mr. john
son has since been kept in cell in
the county Jail and Mrs. Norris has
been confined in other quarters.

A NEEDED AMENDMENT.

1t has been reported that Presi-
dent Roosevelt now approves and
will lend his support to Senator La
Follette's amendment to the railway
rate regulation law authorizing the
commission to ascertain the present
value of railroads. 1t will be re-
membered that when La Toilette pre-
scented this amendment during the
last session he was the only Republic
can who voted for it, all the Demo-
Gratis voting with him. If the re-
port that the president now favOrs
this amendment be true, the vote
may be different the next time it
comes up, though there is no hope
of it's passage at this session.
The necessity of such provision
if rates are to be properly regulated
is obvious. AS Bryan's Commoner
says: 1T is not enough to stop re-
bates; while this puts all shippers
on an equal footing it really helps
the railroads more than it does the
general public from extortionate
rates, and this problem cannot be
undertaken until We know how much
of the present capitalization is real
value and how much is water. The
first thing to be done is to seperate
the real from the fictitious.

made. Mrs. Norris has a husband
and children in Missouri whom she
deserted several months ago. The
two left Prosser together about three
months ago and went to SAINT Point,
Idaho, where they remained for a
short time and then came here.
The wife of Johnson in the meantime
has been diligently securing the
country for her missing spouse and
only located him last week and inn
mediately communicated with Sher-
if Webb.
Prosecuting Attorney Grass was
absent at the time of the arrest and
a complaint was filed by City Clerk
Sam Sumner. The time for their
preliminary hearing was set for this
afternoon, but up to the time of going
to press no action had been taken.
The evidence, however, is sufficient
to bind them over to the superior
court and it is likely that this course
will be taken. In this event they
will be required to give bond and
will be tried at the next term of
court. At first it was thought they
would be sent back to Prosser to
stand trial there. but as there is
greater evidence here of their mis-
demeanor than in Prosser, It has
been decided to retain them as guests
of Chelan county until after their
trial.
