PERRIN APPEALS CASE
Declares Underhanded Work Win Be shown up and Great Sensation
 VIII Result

Before this matter is ended l will expose piece of villainry that will be astounding. Beyond that there is no statement that can give out at the present time. .'
 This was the remark made today at the Santa Rita hotel by Dr. E.. B. Perrin, one of the biggest land owners in the Southwest. Dr. Per- rin was charged with having been implicated with a man named Ben son in land frauds in Tehana coun- ty. California. He was tried be- fore jury which returned verdict of guilty and a sentence of l2 months in jail was imposed.
 Dr. Perrin. however. through his attorneys has taken an appeal to the higher courts and the case is now pending and he is out on bail.
 Rumors have been rife since his conviction that additional sensa- tions were brewing in this case and that Mr. Perrin would pro- duce some evidence later that would be astounding.
 He declined. however, to discuss this matter further than to state that underhanded work would be shown up and that decided sensa- tion would result.
 Dr. Perrin has just returned from a trip to Washington where he had lengthy conference with his attorneys. He is a resident of Williams. Ariz., where he has large land holdings. His property in Arizona and California totals about 360, 900 acres.
 Dr. Perrin is the owner of the Babare Coma land grant which is located in Southern Arizona. There are 33. .000 acres in this grant and Col. w. c. Greene is negotiating at present for its purchase. Should the deal now pending not be com pleted Df, Prerin expects to pas ture a large bunch of sheep on the grant.
 In the osceutlon of Dr. Perrin by the government. Hon. F. J. Heney acted as special prosecutor. Tucson Citizen.

Why is it that nearly everybody who attends church likes to sit on the end of a seat and hold onto it like grim death and every person who gets a berth in that pew must stumble over them?" Most likely reason so that they may get out quickly in case of fire. We sin ners are quite strongly reminded of fire, flames and brimestone that are pursuing us. and we can't tell just exactly when it is going to come. We want to be in a posi- tion to make a quick escape.

SILL UNDECIDED
Much Disputed Case Over TralI to be Settled by Secretary of the
 interior


 the local land office in the case of the protest of the Grand Canyon Railway against the previous de- cisions that have favored Ralph H. Camreon, who seeks to establish the mineral character of certain mining claims held by him in the Grand Canyon, was concluded yesterday. The hearing began several days ago the protestant being represented by U. T. Clotfelter of Los Angeles and MT. Cameron being represented by Reese M. Ling, of Prescott. Six witnesses were examined for Mir. Cameron and four for the railroad company. The testimony is vol luminous and will be transmitted to the secretary of the interior for final decision.
 The case is quite a notabe one and has been long and strenuou controversy for both sides. It has also been one of considerable public interest through the fact that the trail from Fl Tovar hotel to the river in the canyon, passes over these claims. and that has. itself been in controversy at one time and another. The present action. how ever. has nothing to do with the trail, though the fate of the trail may hinge upon it. The case is not ible again in that this is the second hearing in the land office, the first having taken place three years ago in Prescott and after the rendering of a decision. came the protest which was ordered before Register Lyman J. Wakefield, the dispositions or testimony to be sent over the heads of the entire land office bureau. and placed directly before the secretary of the interior.
 The in structions were to make the hearing thorough that it might show the status of Mr. Cameron, past, present. and as far as possible his intentions for the future presumably that it might be de- termined what bearing, if any. his desire for the title to the claims might have upon a control of the trail
 It has been the contention of the protestant that the holding of the claims as mineral ground was to control the trail for commercial reasons. as it is located at the most feasible place for tourists to pass down into the canyon. MT. Cam eron on the other hand contends that he found the mineral and con- structed the trail in the develop ment of the mineral prospects. that he might finally acquire the title to the mineral ground. Incidentally the trail has b zen used by tourists and at one time it was maintained as a toll road, under an arrange ment between MT. Cameron and Coconino county. Whatever the controversy over the trail as trail it is an affair between Cameron and the county. Should Cameron secure the decision from the seer ,tary of the interior. the holding of the trail, except on his own property, would still be a matter between him and the county. But if it is shown that Cameron has an in- sufficient mineral showing. or in any other way is utilizing the min ing laws to secure the ground for another purpose. the land would revert to the government and MT. Cameron would be out of the issue entirely.

LOVE- and Death.

Very closely love and death dwell to-
Rether-hlgh up In the world OF nature
and low down! The following well
authenticated story comes from North
amptonshlre: A sparrow hawk was
killed when feeding her young. -Four
DAYS later when the nest was exam
ined It was found that the little male
bird, working alone for the FAMILY
had brought home forty-eight birds
viz. six larks, nine swallows, one bull
finch, seven robins, six sparrows. six
hedge sparrows, nine blue tits, three
chaffinches and one wren.
What a spirit of dutifulness along
with ferocity is here exhibited on the
part of the small widower hawk, who
evidently thought that the best way OF
respecting the memory OF ais departed
consort was to feed her children well!
And In doing this how absolutely OBJ
liyIous nature had rendered him OF
the feelings Of the poor larks, swal-
lows. bullfnches and robins, whose
offspring-or the parents themselves
his relentless parental affection thus
annexed The direst cruelty animated
by the tenderest love! The most saw
age egotism prompted by an entire I'M
selfishnessl Such are some Of the
problems which nature furnishes, but
will not solve.-London Telegraph.
