Mr.. Bruce, include fewer pleas

coming during the winter were
merely travelling for pleasure, or

all of those who are coming now,

pect the number to continue ap-

more activity in land transactions

were last year. -

emerged his companion had disap-
 peared, nor was his own clothing anywhere in sight.
 He realized then that he had been robbed. for his trousers had contain
 ed $73. Pursuit was never more
 effectually headed off. It was more
 effective than if the telephone or
 telegraph wires had been cut. A man cannot go far in the burning rays
 of a July sun unless he has already been locoed by thirst and heat Be-
 ilization of Wickenburg in that garb and there being no barrel handy in which to array himself. he was com pelled to lie low until the friendly shades of night came to clothe him ldecently.
 All this time the thief was putting
 miles between himself and averaging justice. When the outrage was re- ported to the authorities at Wick
 enburg they quickly satisfied them selves that the fugitive had not come | in that direction and they cOnclud- ! ed that he must have gone toward | Phoenix. He would also naturally seek this commercial center to dis bose of his ill-gOtten wealth. An accurate description of the thief was I sent and the officers were busy all i day looking for a man who would
 fit it. They found none though who , looked mean enough to play that kind : of a trick on friend.

ARIZONA DEMOCRATS
 AND WILLIAM R. HEARST
Those Of the North Have Undergone Change of Sentiment in Four Years.

F. F. Ellinwood. counsel for the Copper Queen Consolidated Mining company arrived in the city yester- day on his return from the northern part of the territory, partly on bus mess and partly for the purpose of commingling with the famous trout in Oak creek.
 In reply to a question as to the state of the northern mind with ref erence to politics, territorial and na- tional. Mir. EllinWood said that he had heard no political talk at all The democrats of the northern part of the territory have not yet reached that stage; they have not yet fin ished ''cussin' out William Randolph Hearst for his neglect of the inter ests of Mir. Bryan.
 MT Ellinwood could not help re marking the great change of senti- ment of the democrats of the north toward Mir. Hearst within the last few years. He recalled an incident of the tour of the territory by Mir Hearst in charge of a party of sev- enteen congressman. In the course of the tour they reached Prescott and the visitors were extended all the courtesies for which the Pres cottians are famous. In drive about the country, one carriage was occupied by Mir. Ellinwood, Dennis A Burke Senator Overman and Mr. Hearst. The drive was a long one and the party had long since run out of conversational material and

The Trick He Played on a Country

The sheriffs office yesterday morning received an urgent demand from Wickenburg for the arrest of Mexican wanted there for par ticularly mean crime, involving the betrayal of confidence, robbery and unusual cruelty He and a coun- tryman went swimming on Saturday in the historic Hassayampa. Finally the Mexican said that he had got cooled off and went out of the water and dressed himself. His companion had not had half enough of the de- lights of the placid and cooling water and padded about in the stream for time longer When he finally

had to scrap for things to talk about. Mir. Ellinwood suddenly remembered the Labor Day speech of Henry F. Ashurst in which he modestly eulo- gized Mir. Hearst by telling his hearers that he was the greatest man that had trod the earth since Jesus suffered in Gethsemane and walked on Gallilee.
 When Mir Ellinwood repeated this very complimentary allusion to the distinguished guest, Senator Over man nearly fell out of the carriage with amusement. MT. Hearst, how eyer. either did not see the humor of it or else be thought that Mir. Ash urst had given him only about what was coming to him. At any rate, he did not smile in concert with the other members of sthe party.

DR. BULGIN LOSES
 IN RIVERSIDE SUIT
Court UphoIds Contention That He Misrepresented the Facts in Sale of Mining Stock.

The following which will be of in terest to local readers. by reason of their acquaintance with Dr. Bulgin, is found in the Riverside. California, correspondence of the Los Angeles Times:
 "The sensational case of Dr. F. K. Strasser was decided by Judge Dens- more this morning in favor of the former. The suit, which was on trial in the superior court the greater part of last week, was brought for the re- covery of a twenty-acre alfalfa ranch at san Jacinto valued at $500 and eX- changed by Dr. Strasser for 16.000 shares of KeIso Mining and Milling company stock, which afterward prov ed worthless. ..
 "'Dr. Strasser's complaint alleged that the minister had knowingly mis- represented the value of the ore, the indebtedness of the company, the num- Der of shares of stock held by the di- rectors, the relations between ute KeI- so company and the West Coast Se- curities company by which the latter concern was to receive half of the pro- ceeds from the sale of the stock in the Kelso company and other things affecting the value of stock.
 Judge Densmore has not yet filed his written decision, but announced from the bench today that the plain tiffs testimony fully sustained the all legations of the complaint. and that his decision would be in favor of pr Strasser Considerable stock in this hag .r |. al gin in southern California and the outcome of the suit has been awaited with much interest. It is understood an appeal will be taken.
 "On the witness stand today. pr Strasser testified that Dr. Bulgin had misrepresented the assay value of ore, the amount of stock held by the direc- tors of the company. the contract be- tween the Kelso Mining and Milling company and the allied organization, the West Coast Securities company. and various other matters relating to the management of the company.
 He also asserted that the minister had represented to him that the five directors of the company. of which he was one, held only 10000 shares of its capital stock each; that the mining property was free from debt. with the exception of $6OO, which was to be paid in cash and $75OO to be paid in stock; that the mines had been eff ciently managed, and that there were hundreds of tons of ore in sight. aver aging SIS a ton, all of which is de- clared untrue.
 "The witness said that each of the directors held 10000 shares in the Kelso company and 2O,OOO shares in the West Coast Securities company: that the actual Indebtedness was about S23,000; that the affairs had not been efficiently managed, and that the ore was not so rich as represented.
 He further said that the West Coast Securities company promoted the Kel- so company, and was given 50 per cent of the proceeds from the sale of stock. whereas pr. Bulgin had represented to him that the West Coast Securities company was to receive nothing for promoting the Kelso company. until the latter was on a paying basis"
