FESTIVE OCCASION
 Al CRlIIENION HOME
Frank M. Cole and Miss Broadbook the Former Matron, Were Married Wednesday Evening.

Frank NJ. Cole and Miss F. NJ. Broadbook were married Wednesday evening at o'clock at the CrittentOn Home by Rev. H. M. Campbell, pastor of the Presbyterian church. The oc- casiOn was probably the most notable social event that ever occurred at the Home. The bride has been its matrOn almost from its very beginning until the first of September. when she re- signed her position and was succeeded by Mrs. Messenger. though she con tinued to make her home there until the wedding.
 The guests of the occasion were only the intimate friends of the contracting parties, the inmates of the Home and a few who have formerly lived there. The house was decorated gorgeously with roses and peppers and other greenery. After the ceremony Iefresh- ments were served by the ladies of the Crittenton Home circle, the cakes for the occasion having been made and furnished by girls who formerly made the institution their home. The eveh- ing was spent most joyfully.
 The groom has prepared a comfort dDit lOillt lOI nllllStll anu WIG dl OlA North Third street. He is a carpenter by trade and successful and highly esteemed gentleman. Of the bride lit tie need be said, owing to the fact that few if any Phoenix woman is more generally known locally for her good words and good works among the helpless and the unfortunate. Her ministrations have not been confined to Phoenix alone for many from other parts of the territory have found shell ter and friends in the institution over which she has presided and personal help from the matron who has been, and is ever ready to do good when the opportunity offers. All Phoenix will unite in wishing for the newly mar ried. long and happy lives and con- tinuation of usefulness and charitable works.

 rested on suspicion of having recently robbed the railroad station in Tucson of $500 in cash. While he has not admitted the crime he has confessed to having participated with another man in the robbery of the NJ. & F. station here of $40 in cash and two mileage books, some months ago. He said he had secreted the mileage books under the chute at the M, & P. stock yards. He seems to be tell

 office of a registered package con taining $500 a few years ago, which crime remained a mytesry until he confessed it. in order to gain admis- sion to the Yuma penitentiary. as he was sick of an incurable disease and thought he could secure better attention there than anywhere else in his straitened circumstances.

 Observing that it was far easier to find means of enabling the citizens to discharge his full duty than 10 induce him to care for discharging them the lecturer went on to show in what manner appeals might be made to the highest forms of enlightened self in- tercst by dwelling on the good work governments conducted with purity and efficiency might accomplish, This was Illustrated from the case of cit ies; and reference. was made to the moral and civic instruction that in the United States needed to be given to the vast body of new immigrants. He proceeded to remark that the causes which at one time raised at other times depressed Both the gen eral tone and the civic virtues of na- tions lay largely outside our know ledge There were times when some great crisis evolved all that was best in national character, There were times when great men inspired their countrymen and raised everything to a higher level. Mazzlni, Washington, and Lincoln were noted as Instances, Nations live largely by their traditions and perform good traditions was to give them an immense reserve of strength. Instances were adduced. A reason for hopefulness might be found in the spirit of philanthrophy which had so much spread In both England and the United States during the last twenty years and which was be- ginning to tell more than ever prin- cipally on legislation and administra- tion. In conclusion the special call which America made to her youth was dwelt upon, There was good reason to belieye--so one heard from nearly all of the cities-that the young men were more and more responding to this call.

FIRE DESTROYS HOME.
Dwelling of Porch Family, in North
Aberdeen, Burns-Mr. Porch
Believes Incendiary.

At 1880 a. m, Saturday, fire
alarm was turned in from Hayes and
Young streets in North Aberdeen,
caused by the burning of the home
Of Mr.. and Mrs. John Porch.
Mr.. Porch states that he feels as
sured that the fire was the work of
an incendiary, as the fire wGs started
in the rear and on the outside of the
house, the flames spreading so quick
ly that it was impossible to save the
house. Mr.. Porch has family of
four children, and just before the
fire was discovered the oldest child
called her fathers attention to the
about the premises, and he, rising to
get his gun, was told by his wife to
discharge it out the window and
scare the intruder off, rather than
risk going down stairs in the dark.
On raising the window, the smoke
poured in, and it was only few
minutes before they had to leave the
house to the mercy of the flames,
saving no clothing and only little
of their furniture.
Mr.. Porch further states that his
home is supplied with water from a
private concern, he being a part own
er. That lately he has had trouble
with the other owners, and they cut
his house off from the supply On
his connecting again they got out an
injunction forbidding him to use the
water until hearing could be had.
This left him without any means of
fighting the fire and saving his u. op-
erty.
There was $500 insurance Oh The
building and 500 on the furniture,
$3.50 of which goes to John Matsen,
who loaned him the money to buy
the property A subscription was
Immediately taken up to rebuild the
home, and clothes were furnished to
the family.
