FOREST SUPERVISION
Proves of Benefit to People Residing
 Near Them Cheaper Fuel.

A striking illustration of the bene- its of forest management by Uncle Sam has just been reported from southern Arizona. In this region fuel of any kind is exceedingly scarce and difficult tp get. IL is supplied chiefly by MeXicans, who go up into the mountains with burrOs, cut the fuel from juniper and oak trees, and then take II out in small loads on the bur ros.
 In the past the ranchers living a, the mouths of tie canyons in the DIagoon mountains, have prevented the Mexicsns from reaching the most accessible timber, and perhaps justly so, because promiscuous cutting would unquestionably have damaged thu water shed and unsteadied the hCV of water in these canyOns, on whici the ranchers were dependent for irri gation. Since the establishment O the national forest, however. the cut ting of wood has been carefully super yised and only dead and mature treei the removal of which would not injur the watershed, have been cut.
 Careful cutting of this kind hs been allowed in the areas which hay J heretofore been closed to Use, and as
 result the price of wood has actualI teen reduced in the small towr around the national forests. For II

Former Chief Justice Street Lies al
 Deaths Door at Los Angeles.

+ With little change for better or wors,
 in his condition, but growing steadily
 weaker, former Chief Justice Webster Street lies at deaths door in Los An. geles, the end apparently being only a matter of time.
 For over two months Judge Street has shown little change either way since he was suddenly taken with a stroke of paralysis at Bowie and brought to Phoenix in a dangerous condition. He was taken to Los An geles in the hope it might bring i'm provement.
 In possession of all his mental fac ulties, unable to speak, because of the paralysis of the muscles of his throat. He is able to move his right arm at times, but this is the extent of his physical exertion

During the storm this afternoon lightning struck Mex.can named Sabino Gu-mam near the T C. NJ. Cos. mill and knocked the victim sonseless.
 Gusman, who is employed at the mill, stepped into place oi shelter during the storm. A bolt of lghtn- ing, with binding effect, struck about the works, and shortly after fellow workmen found Gusman unconscious on the ground
 The unfortunate man was immedl- ately brought to town and Dr. Sloan summoned. He was soon revived but was found to he suffering a partial | paralysis from the teTrihle shock, hi; entire left side being without vOlun- tary motion and deprived Of sen7ation His case s not considered dangerous however, and his recovery is probable within a short time. No msrks o burns were found on the body and tn patient in describing his experienc says he saw a flash and recalls nothiD further
 A slight burn along board is tn only mark of the lightning's ant
 where Gusman was standing. and it
 evident he had a narrow escape frol

lust Remarkin. As the Eelier Said.

There is an actual petition out for the removal of the court house.
 The preliminary resolution consists in a measure of auth ority to cut the umbrella trees, and the roses and track the blue grass in front of the county editice preparatory to the final act, whichi is supposed to be placing the two story and :cupalo court house on greased sSids and sending it to Warren, or Bisbee, Or Doug, las, or Paradise, or Kyreen or Pine or Pirtleville. as the case may be.
 In the meantime the heredi tary love of Tombstone, crop: out like an early drumheaC cabbage, and the scheme seems to be falling to pieces.
 Douglas is a fine city for if population, but it is istrictl, astride of the issue and, tn Mexican line. It Is absolute ly to one side of the county.
 Bisbee is a grand old pro ducer, but she..has not enc Igl of level ground on which build a court house.
 Tombstone has friends a. over the county, and when th showdown comes, We wi have nothing to fear.
 They'had better save thet expense money and save u taxpayer the cost of an ele tion.

BIC CHIEF" MEYERS
Famous Base5aIist Who Was Great
 fayooite in Arizona.

In every city ip Arizona that has had ball team of any consequence during the past few years, .he fans and players are talking about the phenom- enal rise to place of Big Chief Mey- CTS, the Indian catcher, who was with the Phoenix team few years ago, and was recently sold by the St. Paul clut to the New York Nationals for SG0O0.
 Only four years ago Meyers was swinging pick in the mines of the Arizona Copper company at Clifton and on Sundays playing ball with the crack team of that camp against the Morenci aggregation.
 Even at that time Meyers was looked upon as one of the greatest catchers who ever donned mask in Arizons.
 Almost every ball team in Arizona has claimed Meyers ss one oi its mem- bers at some time or other. He played with Clifton. Bisbee, Phoenix, Prescott and Tucson, and with each oi them he played good enough to be the idol of the ians, both as receiver behind the bat and with the stick.
