Sheep in Arizona.

KANSAS CITY, June 1.-The Star says;
 George Scott, of Showlow, Arizona, thinks it pays to be game, even in the live stock business, and especially in the sheep business. Mir. Scott is one of the pioneer sbeepmen of that terri tory. He has suffered severe losses, as have all others who have been in the business any length of time. He says he has gone broke and risen again. and still handles sheep on pretty large scale.

OVER sl5,ooo GIVEN FOR
 FOURTH CELEBRATION

The Fourth of July celebration is al. ready n success. It is going Co be q bigger affair than anyone anticipated -- bigger than even the most sanguine had planned.
 This is assured by the report of the finance committee which was made last night to the general committee. They had secured subscriptions to the extent of $500, and they are by no means through their work. J. W. Wilson, a member of the committee, was i'll, but Archie Loekhart and Harry Hartcr were host in themselves and with but few exceptions their appeals foy donations to the fund me; with a hear ty and liberal response. Indeed, the business men of Prescott can always be depended upon 10 do the right thing and back all spirited undertak. ings.
 The enthusiasm that r<rvades the | community was indicated in the large attendance that filled the supervisors chambers, there being not even seating capacity for the crowd. It vas . per. fee,ly harmonious gathering, and while there were minor differences of opin. ion as 10 the proper methods 10 he pur. sued, there were no clashes of any no mcnt. All were unanimous in the opin. ion that nothing should he left un. done to make the celebration q success and credit to the city. 4 tug of war between teams from the various towns of Yavapai county was suggestion that met with instant and hearty ap proval. Another splendid idea was to have Japanese daylight 6reworks--s novel feature in this part of the conn try. To do this, however, more money must he raised, and 1t is earnestly hoped that the finance committee will be welcomedf with open arms and ar open purse when they resume their h bors today. The following committed were appointed, the 6r.t-narned being see Shait"nn, anu th'Hs NVhreihut' ih' executive committee;

1SCOTTY' IS JAILED
FOR INVESTIGATION
Death Valley Miner Is Suspected
of ''High Grading" and
Lands in Lookup
Practically Penniless, Once Not
ed Character Languishes
in City BastiIe

'Scotty" of Death valley lies in the
city prison. He was dumped into cell
last night along with "drunks, vags
and petty criminals. 1t might be said
that "Scotty's" obituary of fame was
written when his name was spread on
the jail blotter.
1t was but few short years ago that
"Scotty'' on entering the city was
hailed with fanfare of trumpets and
met by delegation of representative
citizens. 1t was then he stayed at five
hotels at the same time and parted
with his gold notes like a sailor who
has partaken too freely of water front
whisky. In those golden times of
"Scotty's" life he contributed to the
histrionic art, killing all the villains
that could be herded on the spacious
Grand opera house stage and rescuing
the girl. But conditions have changed.
Flushed with liquor "Scotty ap-
peared yesterday afternoon at the CEN
trail police station charging that his
trunk, while in the safe deposit vault
of the Bank of Italy, 626 Montgomery
street, had been robbed of nuggets and
quantity of precious ore. "Scotty'
further charged that the lock on the
trunk had been "jimmied." The job,
according to him, was the work of
some one connected with the bank.
These accusations called for a
searching inveStlgatlon. Inc pdnk was
visited. In the bank was "Scotty," his
private secretary, Harry Milling, to
whom, it later developed, he owed
$500 borrowed Is months ago, and
Detective T., F. Conlan. Detective Con-
Ian was soon satisfied that none of the
ore had been stolen and the lock had
been loosened by the knocking about
of the quartz.
where did 'Scotty' get this trunk of
rich ore?" was the question the police
asked. He admitted that the smelter
people had refused to handle 1t and had
charged him with high grading. IT
was finally decided to lock up Scotty
until he could give satisfactory ex-
PLANTATION about the ore. He claims to
have brought it out of Death valley
When searched at the prison Scotty
had $3.50. In letter from his wlre,
mailed at Barstow, she begs him to
send her money, saying that she Is
penniless.

The sediment soil of the valley of

sidered the most productive land on

a careful investigation of the sediment
soil of the Sacramento valley in Glenn

DECISION IN ESTATE
DOESN'T SATISFY HEIRS
Supreme Court Says Property
of Late Patrick McGee Must
Be Redistributed

A decision rendered by the supreme
court yesterday was reversal of the
lower court, but it did not give the
appellants what they were looking for
when they brought the appeal. Patrick
MCGEE of Santa Barbara left a tract of
land in Mendocino county to be divided
among his six children. 1t was his
separate property, and without his
sanction his wife declared it home
stead. The lower court gave the widow
a third of the property and divided
the other two-thirds among the chill
dren and their heirs. One of the
daughters had died before the distri-
button and only third of her share
was given to her husband.
The supreme court declared that the
estate must be redistributed so that the
husband of the deceased heir will re-
ceive half of her share. The
third originally given to the widow is
not to be disturbed, so all the appel
lants get is the privilege of having
their share redistributed and the pay
ment of the costs.

TREADWELL POSES
AS INNOCENT TOOL
Defense Will Be That He Knew
Nothing of Trust Compa-
ny's Affairs

Cross examination of j. Dalzell
Brown, in which Attorney Thomas Do
zier went far back into the convict
witness past life and laid lines to try
to prove that James TreadwelI knew
no details of the California safe de-
posit and trust companys busi-
ness, was begun yesterday morning.
This afternoon at 1 o'clock the ques-
tioning will be continued. Court took
recess yesterday to allow DoZier to
attend the Oakland convention.
Assistant District Attorney Cook
tried to have the record changed as
to his testimony regarding the date Of
TreadwelPs questioning in the grand
jury room. He wanted the amenda-
tion to show that Treadwel1 was
asked number of questions regarding
the Cotton securities on January 2S in
stead of January 81. Dozier hotly OBJ
jected and assigned misconduct on the
part of the assistant district attorney
in mentioning this before the jury.
The objection as to the change of rec
ord was sustained.
A. E. Sbarboro, cashier of the Ital-
ian-American bank, told of the $4,000
loan made by that institution on Col
ton securities M. A. Murphy of the
Carnegie brick and pottery company
told how, at Treadwells request, he
arranged for this loan in his own
name, though Treadwell was in fact
the borrower.
Dozier began his cross examination
of Brown with quietness and a de-
Liberation and arrangement OF detail
which indicated exhaustive interroga-
ton to come. He brought out Browns
bank apprenticeship and later employ
ment as minor official in Scotland; !;
then Browns life in Nova Scotia. He
left this early life and went into the
California safe deposit and trust COM
pany's affairs. He brought out the
statement that Treadwell was treas
urer nominally only; that Brown was
really treasurer. Before recess he was
in the midst of a series of questions
concerning Browns duties as manager
the dates during which he held sue
cessive offices in the bank, and finally
the telegraphic correspondence be-
tween Brown and Bartnett preceding
the arrival of the Cotton bonds
The line of the cross examination
clearly pointed to an attempt at i'm
parchment. And 1t looked as though
the defense intended to bring testi-
mony derogatory to the witness past,
prior to his connection with the Cali
fornia safe deposit and trust company;
close conspiracy between Brown and
Bartnett. and TreadwelPs connection
as an innocent tool in the pawning of
the securities.
