Also some medicine; hope
That Rhodes drug store is open yet,
For nowhere else can people get
Such fresh. pure goods and such a stock
At figures, too, that seem to mock
Competitors, and beat them, too"
Thus spoke one Brownie, and It's true.

CHE Brownies Usit.

For vanity the dude was famous,
And yet he was no ignoramous,
For he had passed by the jewelry store
And there he witnessed goods galore,
So boldly he announced to all
That he would quick at Scattergood's call
And buy whatever he desired,
If too much "mum" was not required

But much tramping did some damage
And they began at once to rummage
To find some shoes to fit their feet,
And each one wanted something neat
And into J. l.. Miller's they went
Each Brownie on a purchase bent,
And ere fhnv left the store each carried

But something practical arose
That vexed the Brownies more than clothes
Or aught else; twas the need of stuff
To cook and eat. And we'll enough

And prices there cannot be beat.

The Musicians have not been repre-

Railway Protective Association Failee
to Consider One Fact.


to Consider One Fact.
While practically every paper in
the state was condemning the rail-
road employees for organizing the pro
tective association" and charging
them with being the tools of the rail-
road managers, The Wageworker
spoke up and insisted that the men
had a right to organize to protect
themselves and their families, and re-
scented the charge that they were being
used by the railroad managers. All
that The Wageworker got out of it
was the supreme satisfaction of having
spoken its mind on the question.
Now it wants to speak some more.
There are four of the great railway
organiZations-the Brotherhood of Lo-
connective Engineers. the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Firemen and Engineers.
the Brotherhood of Railway Conduc-
tors, and the Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen. None of these four affiliates
with the American Federation of La
Dor. They do not even affiliate to any
extent with themselves. The flock
apart about as regularly as any
four bodies of organized men can Just
how they expected that they could
cut any amount of political ice with
out outside assistance is a mystery.
And how they could expect the help
and support of other organized bodies
whom they have ignored for so long
is an even greater mystery Having
preferred to go it alone all these
years they certainly did not expect the
organized men in other trades to rend
their neither garments in helping the
railroad men out. If they did, they
know more now than they did week
ago.
About the first think these railroad
brotherhoods should do is to affiliate
little better with one another Then
they ought to affiliate with their fellow
workers in other lines of toll
| All of which may not meet with the
appreciation of the gentlemen who con
duct the affairs of the railroad brother
hoods-but which is a concrtNe fact
| just the same.

OFF FOR SEATTLE
 VIA THE SANTA fE
Detective kenneey Left This Morning With His Prisoner and the Friend ship of all He Met Here.

| Frank Kennedy a Seattle detective. i left for home this morning OH the | Santa Fe with L. T. Scherer. alias Archie C. Bell, who will be tried in 1 Seattle on the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses. This
 was made possible by the dismissal yesterday by Judge Kent. of the peti- tion for a writ of habeas corpus, filed ! before Court Commissioner McCor-
 mick week or two ago.
 The record of the case is as follows
 A man giving the name of Archie C.
 Bell came here during the past winter and began the carpentering ana con tracting business. In the latter part of March the Seattle authorities directed City Marshal Moore to arrest him on | the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses, in Seattle, and hold him pending instructions, stating at the same time that his real name was l.. T. Scherer. He was arrested March 26 On March 30 an application was made for a writ of habeas corpus and the petition was denied. March 31 a new complaint was made charging s'cherer with being a fugitive from jus tice. April MT. Kennedy arrived with requisition issued by the governor of Washington. April there was a hear ing before the governor and the reQui
 sition was honored, Governor Kibbey issuing warrant for the custody ot Scherer alias Bell. to MT. Kennedy. That evening just as the train was leaving papers were served on MT Kennedy announcing a new petition for habeas corpus issued by Court Commissioner Mccormick in the ab- sence of Judge Kent and citing him to appear before the latter for a hearing on April lS That was yesterday and as mentioned above ;ne petition was denied and Kennedy has gone with his man.
 The proceedings have been in good spirit all the way through. At first Mir. Kennedy was considerably irrita- ted that his plans for a quick trip were frustrated but he has recovered from that state Of mind and is rather glad he had an opportunity to tarry here while. After a legal battle with B. F.. Marks the attorney for the prisoner. acrimony was outgrown and though neither gave in at any point both ac quired a wholesome respect for each other The lawyer recognized that MT. Kennedy was here to do his duty and the latter acknowledged that the attor- ney was within his rights in exhaust ing every legal resource in behalf oi his client. Each conceded a point in this way. Kennedy had a warrant for the man and had him in custody when the notice of the last habeas corpus action was served. He might have sneaked him to Tempe or elsewhere and taken a train, avoiding the service which he had been told was coming. But he said he had never had to sneak away with prisoner and did not pro- pose to do it this time, so he stayed and faced the music.
 Marks concession came yesterday. He could have appealed to the supreme court and thus further delayed matters but he said he had no intention of do- ing sO Nevertheless Kennedy who
Arizona republican., 1908-04-19

might have left on the Southern Pa
 cific last evening laid over until 2
 o'clock this morning and took the San | ta Fe. He moved the prisoner back from the county to city jail. Something of joke arose from this Marks ap-
 piled at the county jail to say goodbye 10 the prisoner and learning he was gone he assumed that Kennedy had [ this time availed himself of the auto mobile dodge and gone to Tempe. Later however they met and passed
 their friendly jokes both admitting the fight to be over.
 The opposition of Attorney Marks
 to the complaint of the Washington authorities. and on which Marks began proceedings was that it was not defi-
 nite and did not describe a crime un-
 der the statutes of any state except Washington. He was forced to admit however that it would pass muster un- der Washington statutes and the court had to rule under those statutes. so the local attorney saw nothing to be gain ed by an appeal. except delay and trou- ble for everybody. He still contends that within the state of Washington the case can be easily beaten on it's merits, which feature of it he could not go into here
 Mir. Kennedy says that now that it is all over he is rather glad he was delayed here, speaking from a personal standpoint. He has learned a lot of things about Arizona that he did not know and has changed a great many of his first impressions" gained the first day or two. He expected to find hot desert half civilized country He struck the territoial line at Yuma just off desert and immediately passed on to another one. When he awoke ln the morning in the midst of green fields and cows shoulder deep in alfalfa he was surprised. During the two weeks that have ensued he has learned that what one sees of Arizona from a rail- road train gives entirely the wrong impression both of the people and the country. He has since seen much of this valley and has become infatuated with it as a residence place. When he gets rich he is coming here to build a winter home. Nowhere that he knows of is there more of the luxury of life in simply living and enjoying the conveniences and pleasures that  nature provides. even if the summers are a little warm.
 He wishes in departing to express his thanks to everybody. He says he has been treated with the utmost con sideration from the governor and chief justice, down to the police force and the plain citizens of whom he has met great many and is free to say that he likes the Arizona people and their way of doing things So well have they treated him in every way that he would not think of leaving here as fugitive. even with the law on his side and his man in custody. He recognizes that everything has been done to recognize the rights of the prisoner and at the same time to offer no affront to the courtesies due the great state of Washington.

These usually come for miniatures or small pictures, and may be with a stand ard or with some device for hanging French gilt is usually seen in these frames, and come in frosted. furnished or old gold finish The enameled frames are new, and gilt frames enameled all over fin brightly contrasting colors are very decorative and effective
 Other frames which add much to the ornamentation of A room are those which show a row of sparkling brllliants sur rounding the picture opening. These francs are exceedingly decorative and attractive and are not as expensive as one would suppose. They seldom come larger than cabinet size and cost about as much as a plain silver frame of corre- spending dimensions. Among the frames which can be made by the clever anna teur worker are those of moire embroid- cred with ribbon work or covered with gold lace heavily spangled. Spanges are very effectively used In this way and the spangies are very inexpensive and not difficult to npply. One very attractive frame showed gold spangles and tiny gilt ribbon on q background of heavy black mOire. This. when stretched over mat. was framed under glass ln gilt moldlng.
