 The same syndicate purchased for S3,300,O00 a block of coal company bonds and other railroad bonds and in the following month a group of branch lines, called the Kansas Pa cifc, for S6, 1903, ,OOO. That was the last dollar ever subscribed by the syndicate for the creation of the great Hartman system. The mem bers of the syndicate received back every cent they had invested within three years and all the subsequent purchases of railroads were made on the credit of the Union Pacific and the few other lines under its control.
 Hartman soon became the control ing spirit of the Union Pacific and by stringent economy, cutting off all waste and improving the main lines, transformed the road into valuable property, paying steadily increasing dividends.

Aviator at Yuma.

An airship inventor and builder has taken Yuma as the ideal one for ger fecting his invention. The machine Is to be of the monoplane type and the motor power is to be electricity, generated by a sixty-horse Corliss engine. The machine is to be self supporting one, guided by propeller that will control both the side and ascent motions. A novel feature of the ship is to be device in the front which is to gather the air current and create electric energy by fric- tion, thus allowing time to stop the engine while flight is being made and allow time for repairs without alighting. At present the name of the inventor is held from the public.
 A. c. Barnes, assembler of the newly invented airship, states that his principal will have all the ma terial on the ground within ten days and that they are coffdent that the first attempt at flight will be made by October 1.

BuIIard on Gambling Law of MaricOpa
 County.

By finding the one possible solution, District Attorney Bullard of Mari copa county has set at rest all doubts as to just what are the anti-gambling laws of Arizona, which were for a time thought to have been involved by the proceedings of the last lcgis- lature.
 Bullard takes the position that the Hampton bill, which modified and repealed the Duffy gambling bill, is the one in full force and effect as it stands in the session laws.
 Going still further, Bullard holds that the Hampton law does not, through an error, repeal the law of the last legislature fixing a grad uated scale of licenses for theaters.
 In the last clause of the Hampton bill it says that "Act No. S5 and all acts and parts of acts in conflict are hereby repealed" some taking this to mean that it did not repeal the Duffy bill, but instead the theatrical license bill.
 This position was taken for the reason that while the Duffy bill was Act S5, the theatrical law appears in the session laws as No. S5.
 On one word Bullard takes his stand, and that is that in the session statutes the laws are designated as "Chapters" and not as "Acts." The theatrical license law is "Chapter S5," but not "Act S5."
 Bullard holds that the Hampton law does repeal the Duffy law for the reason that the clause "all acts and parts of acts, would do this if nothing else. The intent of the legislature was clearly to repeal Act S5-of the legislative assembly, but not Chapter S5 of the session laws.-Phoenix Democrat.

Famous Crabb Expedition of 1857 to be
 made Part of Arizona History.

Much valuable data concerning the early history of Arizona has been se- cured by Mulford Winsor, territorial historian, about the puntative expedi- tion led into Mexico by Henry Crabb in 1857, which resulted in the death of Crabb and 1O6 of his followers, through the treachery of the man Crabb had planned to assist.
 "From what could gather from Prof Forbes and others" said Winsor to the Democrat reporter at Phoenix, "Crabh organized his expedition in California following an understanding with Pesqueira that in the event of the latter being able to overthrow Governor Gandaro of Sonora, Crabb was to have a string of territory lying along the north boundary of Sonora.
 "Crabb was to have furnished 1000 men, but entered Mexico by way of Yuma with only 1O6. While they were on the way, Pesquiera conquered Pandaro, and took charge of Sonora.
 -"When Crabb reached Caborca, EeSQulcIds WHO HdO HO 1uIluST use 1OI him, repudlated his agreement, Crabb and all his followers were captured, but were promised safe escort back to the United States. They were all taken out and treacherously shot in stead.
 "Colonel Tozier organized a relief expedition at Tucson, and went to Mexico. They were fortunate to get back alive, and endured hardsbips on the trip
