CON men SOLD
PA|NTEDROCKS
As NUGGETS

PRESCOTT. Oct. 15.-To cap the
climax ON skin game" propositions
to secure money in this burg in the
past few months. the latest is the
gold nugget trick. which was nipped
in the BAD before the high-handed
trio that were to practice the game
got int action.
They worked Seligman and Ash
Fork and yesterday morning on
aligbting from the train were arrest
ed at 10 o'clock by Deputy Sheriff
Cook and Policeman Heisler They
were taken to the county Jail and
after being searched it was discov-
cred that they were loaded to the
extent of owning a veritable Eldorado
of gold nuggets
Some of the so-called specimens
were as large as an egg, growing
smaller to $40 and SIS and in add
ton to the raw article several dainty
scarf pins were taken from them.
The largest nugget would run to over
$500 If it was genuine. The skill
displayed in the painting of theii
rocks would easily deceive the mos
expert mining man in addition to the
average seeker after these novel pro
auctions.
Charley Mainz, the deputy sheriff
at Ash Fork, was the first person
on the main line of the Santa Fe
to become aware of their trick. AT
ter sizing up an IS piece of th'
bronze he wired to Sheriff Smith o.
the transaction. The trio was trav
cling along the main line and bu
two victims so far have come to th'
surface up to the present time. Thu
names OF the accused men are Harr!
Dugan. J. w. Martin and Charles S
Black. They will have their prelim
mary hearing today.

4 LITTLE PITY ALL
PRISONERS WANTED

DOUGLAS. Oct, 10 (Special)-
The aftermath of payday was felt
in the courts this morning when
there were five minor cases up to be
heard and incidentally there was a
scene unusual in the court when one
after the other of the deiinquents
pleaded for mercy. for an opportun-
ity to pay the fine imposed or for a
reduction.
This arose from clemency shown
in one case where there were circum-
stances which might be termed ex-
tenuating. In the grist TO be ground
there were four drunk cases and one
vag. All were given the ten or ten
proposition and then one young man
was called back This young man is
half breed Mexican who ordinarily
speaks good English, but who on this
occasion forgot his knowledge ana
insisted on the services of Interpre-
ter Igo. He is a well appearing young
chap, not given to frequent sprees,
but quarrelsome when in his cups.
He is employed at one of the smelt.
ers. His fine was RENTED. Then
one after the other the remaining
prisoners sought similar clemency
but without the reasons of the first
and consequently without success
They kept on with their importuni'
ties until the patience of the judge
was exhausted and he ordered the
court room cleared and the culprits
were led away.

Mr.. Vyne said that the element is
almost solidly arrayed against the

for a general county election has
been taken in the Verde valley, Kirk
