GREAT TRIBUTE TO
 AUTHOR OF FAMOUS SONG
(Contlnued from Page One)

(Continued from Page One) gave a new impetus to church music, particularly in England. a country which he visited ten times, and where he was always rece-ved with admir- ing enthusiasm. Literature is in- debted to him for two volumes of the most expuisitely written and charming letters, and a translation into German verse of the "Andria," of the latent poet Terence. Even the graphic art was neglected by that versatile genius Of his. During his soiourn in Switzer- land Mendelsohn painted a number of water colors whicn, m the opinion of competent critics, showed a remarka- ble talent.
 In music he left about 15O compo- sitions. among them several orator ies of which Elijah ana "St. Paul' are undoubtedly the most popular, several operas of which "A Midsum- mer nights Dream,- containing tke beautiful Wedding March" and a large number of minor compositions, of which his Songs without Words are probably the most universally known. His orchestra compositions included several beautiful and bril- liant symphonic works, which ranf among the musical classics.

 HOLD UP IF
 FEES FILED
Attorney Neale, For ConstabIes and Justices, Yesterday For
 warded Papers to Tomb
 stone for April Term Court.

Five complaints setting forth the reasons why the cut made in the fee bills of the Bisbee officers by tho board of county supervisors al Tomb stone Monday should not be allowed, were mailed to the county seat by Attorney George Neale, who has been retained to fight the case. The com plaints set forth in full form the reas- ons why the reduction of fees should not stand.
 made upon the advice of the district attorney, John s. Williams, amounts to several hundred dollars in the az gregate and not one Of the officers serving during the last term escaped. Two justices of the peace. two con stables and a deputy sheriff were those who joined in the suits filed.
 Some confusion has arisen in the public mind as to the nature of this case in distinction from the case Of the constables and justices of the peace whose fees were held up sey- eral years ago upon demand of Thos. Flannigan. at that time district attor- ney. The former case, which was won by the officers, was protested by the district attorney upon the ground that the warrants served by the con stables were not based upon proper complaints under the law. Judge Doan at once handed down . verdict for the plaintiffs upon hearing only a small portion of the evidence. declar- ing that il made no difference upon what sort of complaint a warrant is issued the constable shall be entitled to payment of his fees for service. The present issue is brought about by the opinion of the district attorney that constables are not entitled to fees for service fwsrrans issued after arrest. nor are justices entitled to fee for issuing such a warrant
 The case will probably be heard at the April term of court and in the meantime other officers may join with those already suing. adding even greeter interest to the consequent pro ceedings.

FORMER SHERIFF SPEAKS OF RANGERS
Does Not Like Idea of Abolish iHg This Army of Pro-
 teCtOrS,

 peaking Of the movement on foot Co abolish the Arizona Rangers gaid.
 'I think it would be very foolish move. During the time that [ was in office, I found that the Rangers were cf the. greatest hedp and 1t was never uecessary to ask them for assistance moro than once for they always re- sponded quickly. They lave done most effective work since their or gan'zation and it is greatly due to Their efforts that the number of crim- inals in Arizona has diminished to such marked extent. Net only this, but they have been the protectors of the eattlemen, putting a stop 10 cattle rustiing that for a long time annoyed the ranchmen. There are instances where they have penetrated places where officers of the various coun- ties could not go without being ab- sent from their offices for several Jays at a time. In addition, they nave saved considerable expense to .1c counties and the cost of their maintenance is but a small matter"
 "i remember one instance where Tas sent out 10 get a band of mel
 nat had been terroriziHg a certain i'stTict. The county told me to spare 10 expense to arrest the men and put . stop to their depredations. called m Captain Wheeler and he quickly responded and we had the whole bano 2orraled In few days. Now if I had deputized men to accompany me on tat trip 1t would have cost the coun- ty at least five hundred dollars. whereas through the assistance of the Rangers. l was able to effect the work of capturing thc band at an expense io the county of a little over SlG0. Is that not very good reason why the citizens of Arizona slouid desire to retain the rangers in seTviee?"

 The price was not fhsr out, b1t it Is know n that the Ssusas City peo- pie were offered $5,0OO.O0o cash a short time ago. and this figure was promptly turned down. There was a deal on foot with a London company wherein an offer of s6.500.00 was the consideration but tais deal did not go through. No explanation of the fail ure of this trade to go though was given out to the stockholders but 1t was not on account of the exami- nation of the property or the report of engineers wao represented the for eign connanv in careful and exhaus- tive exami nations.

UNDER THE MISTLETOE

A great many years ago, before the
time of Christianity. the oak tree. and
especially the mistletoe. growing out
of the heart Of tho oak. were rever-
enced for their supposed affinity with
the sun. The Druids worshipped the sun
as the one supreme God, and believed
the oak to be in some way associated
with the sun because they made fire by
rubbing oak sticks together. the oak
being at once the most common tree
and the most suitable for the purpose.
Twice each year these Celtic priests
gave a religious festival in honor Of
the sun, their places Of worship being
in the oak groves. In June, when the
sun was known to have ceased mount
ing higher in the heavens, the Druids
gave thanks. because a nearer approach
Of the sun was thought to be possible.
and this, of course. would result in
the burning up of the earth. In De-
cember. at the time of the shortest
days. the Druids prepared a celebra-
tion in honor Of the suns turning back
from his downward journey, which was
recognized as the days began to grow
longer This second celebration was
quite naturally the happiest time. the
people holding the sun in such fear in
June II was then the mistletoe was
honored as being the very essence Of
the oak.
When eventually the Church was es-
tablished and its followers turned the
ancient December celebration into
Christmas. the mistletoe was hung up
