nying that the mine had been sold. In the meantime Morse went about the valley buying mules right and left, or at least contracting to take them always at the price suggested by the seller. To some he said he wanted the mules to work around the Globe mines and to others he said he was buying them for the United States.
 All went well until yesterday when some of the farmers came to Phoenix with their mules to meet Morse by ap- pointment, turn over tho animals to him and receive fat cheeks. Morse failed to show up yesterday as he prom. ised, and then the farmers began to realize that they had been deceived.
 As far as can be learned, all Morse got was what he secured through small loans. He apparently used the most of his money to keep himself half wn. der the influence of liquor, during which he probably imagined all these big mine deals and saw himself commis. stoned to buy all the mules in the valley
 Several years ago Morse passed through the Salt River valley with a band of fifty horses, belonging to the Murphy estate of California. After pas turing them here for a short time, he took the horses to Durango, Mexico, where it is believed he sold them for the estate.
 Morse is said to have operated or both sides of the Salt river recently and that he had about made arrange ments with the Mesa bank to have his checks honored there. his security be. ing several drafts of large dcnomina tioD. The bank officials became wary in time, and Morse could not arrange for source of money, which proba- bly, led to his decision to abandon the mule buying business.
 Several pf those who met Morse speak of him as clever, entertaining sort of fellow and some of them still think that he will return and straight. cn matters out. His fabrication about the Si50,000 mine deal at Globe and his subsequent actions influence others to believe that he will not come back soon.

window, yelled: Who's there? fired
two shots at the stars with my re-
volver and went back to bed.
I'm the morning when | went out
to investigate | found a sack contain
ing six live hens. | counted my flock
and found l had eighteen, the right
number, beside those in the sack. The
thief had made a haul somewhere else
first and wasn't satisfied with it. When
l frightened him he left his booty be
hind.
81 sent word to the police, and
every effort was made to find the own
er of the fowls without success They
probably belonged to some one whit
had so many that he didn't miss them
So there was nothing to do but Il
keep them. My friends say l am al
bad as the old skinf1int who was Wis
tied by a burglar. When the polic'
rescued the crook he had lost every
thing he had but his trousers an

The Man In the Home.

Some Newark men whose wives go
a great deal to women's clubs are
preparing a memorial. They will ask
the ladies' to adopt the fashion of long
apron strings again. Most aprons
nowadays, they report, are made with
short strings that reach barely around
the owners waists and are pinned to
gether. When a man tries to put on
one of these aprons, they say, he has
to tuck it into the top Of his trousers
or Irvine it around his suspenders, both
arrangements being uncertain and un
satisfactory. The gentlemen of the
committee pray that apron strings be
made long enough to go around &
mans waist and be tied.-Newarl

Charles E. Beals of the Boston

cost of the trip of the fleet around

spent on this trip could have been
used to far greater advantage in
other lines and no doubt he is right.

Possible to Shorten Acute
Sickness.
from Osteopathic Health.

(From O|Steopatnlc healtn.l
Tonsilitis is a condition that oft
en- accompanies or precedes more
serious sickness, such as scarlet
fever. 1t is often observed in oste-
opathic practice that children that
are taken down with sore throat
after exposure to scarlet fever, and
who unquestionably are in for a
siege of that scourge, recover under
competent osteopathic care with
out developing the typical and
severer malady. In other words,
the osteopathic physician is able to
interrupt the course of these "catch-
ing" diseases, to side-track them,
as it were, and neutralize their fury
with amazing advantage to grow
ing childhood. One of our practi-
TONERS said to the editor the other
day:
81 had a case of that kind last
winter. | was called to see a little
girl suffering with tonsilitis. She
was in a district where there were
a number of cases of scarlet fever
and no doubt she had been ex-
posed. She had enlarged tonsils,
fever, rapid pulse, vomiting and
sore throat. There vas no rash on
the body as yet, SO that it could not
very we'll be diagnosed al scarlet
fever at that stage. Yet the pre-
sumption was that it was.
"Prompt and careful osteopathic
attention prevented any further de-
velopment of the trouble and the
little girl was quite we'll within a
week.
"The father made a remark later
which l think significant. He sug'
gested that many of the acute in
fictitious diseases like scarlet fever,
typhoid fever, diphtheria, etc., are
simply developed by the expect
ant treatment of the regular
doctors and that prompt attention
to actual bodily conditions, so al
to remove tissue abnormalitiet
present within the patient-iust al
osteopathy does it-would nearly
always prevent the development
of the O severe troubles.
"It seems to me that the point il
we'll taken. For my own expert
ence has been parallel with thi
in a considerable number of acut'
cases. While the present medica
view is that such ills as the contag
ious fevers must run a typica
course and by some sad fatalit,,
have simply got to last a certail
length of time, the average osteo
pathic experience is that very fey
3 of these cases ever become typica
: under the care of our physicians
We hold that all the types OF pros
trated sickness are to be checke
in their development to a conside
able extent by proper manipula
Q tive treatment if that is availabl
J in the initial stages. Daily oil
cases prove this true.
> Snow the fact that our brethre
of other schools of practice fir
. that scarlet fever and such thing
. do usually run a very typic
course under drugs, while we o.
teopaths find that they do not III
= der our manipulative treatmen
. and that more of u cases in Il
. 'expectant' stages recover with a
= breviated symptoms than run
through typical terms of prostr
70 ton, is to my mind pretty go'
proof that our system has virtu
to stop disease processes which t
" 'expectant' treatment in vog

ly encourages"

WHY is the law so difficult of en-
forcement in case of murder and so
swift and sure where the rights of
property are affected? My atten-
ton is again called to this through
reading in one instance that a man
was "railroaded" to the penitenti-
airy for theft within two days from
the commission of the crime, while
in another a red-handed murderer,
after long delay, was mulcted in a
