 Prescott Courier: Whether l.. V. Mockridge, charged with leaving the city with a National guard uniform will be tried by court martial or in the criminal courts, was not decided this after noon by Captain Coykendall of Company K or the civil authorities. Mockridge was arrested yesterday afternoon at Skull Valley by Deputy Sheriff Cook and lodged in the county jail last night. Mock ridge was on his way to Phoenix when taken into custody on a warrant issued on the complaint of Captain Coykendall. charging him with the theft of the uniform.

 Bisbee Miner: The latest enter prise to be taken up by Jesse Yoa- kun of the Warren Company is a campaign to induce every house. holder to plant flowers and other. wise beautify the yards and gar dens. To this end MT. Yoakum has obtained number of seeds and is distributing them among the residents. It has been demonstrat. ed by actual experience in several gardens in Warren that the most beautiful plants will grow readily, and these gardens are source oi great admiration. The standard flowers grow with profusion in the garden of John Corning, Johr Ceron and others, and their value in adding to the beauty of the town cannot be exaggerated

 Arizona Republicans The water has been so plentiful in the Salt river and the irrigating ditches for a long time that mention of the fact has ceased to be of general interest, although it is worth while to let the river know it's conduct is being watched. The river has fallen considerably from the high mark of a week ago, but there are still over nine feet of water passing over Roosevelt dam. Engineer Reed who has charge of the ditches, desires it announced that if any farmer who is entitled to water is not getting it he would esteem it favor to have the fact reported to him in order that the trouble, whatever it is, may be corrected, for there is now and has been for a long time an ample supply for all
 Arizona Republican: Emil Zuc- ca, the New York commission merchant who has been visiting this valley few days, in discour sing yesterday about the Arizona oranges said: They are richman's food and sick mans fruit. The rich man can afford to buy them at any price and pay good prices, for the reason that no other oranges of equal sweetness and other fine qualities are available at the season when the Arizona fruit ripens. For the same reason they are a necessity for the invalid and command the price because thre Is no competition. What the Arizona people should do is to main tain the standard or maintain it ifpossible. It is quality rather than quantity that will make the Ari- zona oranges famous"

Pit cock says the cotton is opening very fast and prematurely,. the bolls being very small and hard. How far the crop is damaged by the drought he cannot ascertain but figures it to be about 25 per cent, with much more injury ev- cry day the sun shines so hot, and there is no rain. The 65 convicts which have been work ing at the Russellville dam will be brought back to the peniten- tiary in a few days, now as the work there is about just complet- ed. The men, who are all white, will be ent to the gang which is now wor king on the NJ. H. & l.. railroad. Yates Standridge, the murderer, who is serving a 90 year sentence, and who is one of the most desperate men in the gang, will also be taken to the railroad work. Standridge last week attempted to kill one of the convict guards at the camp, at lacking him with a pick, The guard was severely injured o. fore Standridge was overcome. The convict would have escaped from the camp at the time had he not been in the pit of the dam, where he charged about like a caged lion until subdued. Stan dridge has killed several people and now says he had just as soon be dead as where he is, so the guards do not expect him to live to serve out his sentence, be- lieving he will be killed in an at tempt to escape. Standrige com. mitted the crime for which he is now serving a long term, while mrking an escape from the peni- tentiary.

 Farming tools were mighty scarce and we were compelled to use very cruoe implements in those days.

Jonesboro, Ark, Aug. 24.- Life in Arkansas during the early pioneer days is wildly de- scribed by William Puryear of Jonesboro. For 70 years MT. Puryear has lived in Craighead county where he has raised a family of fifteen children and has aided materially in the devel- opment of this part of the state. He holds the distinction of being the earliest poineer in this coun- try still living with possibly one exception.
 Mr. Puryear was the first mer- chant to start in business here, the first sheriff elected m tie county and served on the first grand jury in the circuit courti COurthOuSeS were unknown in those days and court was held in the shade of the massive forest trees. Seats were made of logs and everything was plain and rough, but MT. Puryear asserts that there was no tampering with the jury even under such conditions.
