Due to the fact that he is familiar
with the usual appearance of Ramon
Garcia, Deputy Sheriff Bill White owes
the arrest and cony:c..::0ou of that in
diyidual en- charge of petit larceny.
The officer noticed something unusual
about the walk of the Mexican, and
as he is not in the best OF standing
with the courts of the city, ne saunter-
ed around Garcia 10 ind out what
was the matter. A front view present
ed the appearance of a man in the
last stages OF dropsy, but Bill knew
Ramon had been in good health the
day before, so he proceeded to make
a medical examination of this sudden
enlargement of the abdominal region.
An operation was deemed necessary
by the officer and agreed to by the
patient. Without anasthetics having
been administered, the officer probed
the wounds and removed therefroni
much foreign substance, to-wit: Three
pairs of pants, mems pants, Just about
the size Garcia wears. Having been
caught with the goods on, he admitted
his guilt, stating that he had secured
them from the Copper Queen store.
He was arraigned before Justice Ho-
gan, where he pleaded guilty to the
charge preferred against him, and was
given sixty days in Tombstone in the
hope that he would next time deem ii
cheaper to buy any clothing that he
might need.

the Presbyterian Church was the sue
cess Of that event. Since the installa-
ton Of the splendid organ at the
Presbyterian Church several recitaIs
have been given there, but none have
compared to the performance of this
noted organist. A good audience was
in attendance, and every number on
the program was thoroughly enjoyed.
Mr.. Sanborn was requested to give
an extra number, and this this request
he most readily acceded, giving the
beautiful intermezzo of Mascagni.
This, together with the famous Largo
by Handel, was especially appre-
ciated
The program was varied by vocal
solos by Miss Ruth Dahlgren and E.
l. Blair. Miss Dahlgren, who is a
dramatic soprano, created tremendous
enthusiasm by her excellent rendi-
ton of the celebrated Magnetic
Waltz" of L'Arditti. Her appearance
again this evening is looked forward
to with pleasure by those who were
in attendance last evening. Mr.. Blair,
whose singing is always well received,
was at his best and rendered Lullaby

usual pleasing style.
Mr.. Sanborn will make hfs second
and last appearance in Bisbee this
evening in an entirely different pro-
gram, assisted by Miss Dahlgren and
Orrin Kellar.

fused 20 stay in the diamond for an
ether inning to decide which was
the winning team, not being prepared
for az untimely death.
Halves flying catch of long drive
in deep field and his clean throw TO
the home plate was phenomenal, TO
say the least Walling's catch of a
benca was another feature of the
game. Ryan's star fielding was done
