BOSTON BANKER SPENT LAST
 EIGHT YEARS IN MISERY

Carleton H. Hutchinson. a leading banker and broker of Boston, with offices at s Congress street, in that city, has recently come out with a very strong statement.
 In the widespread discussion over Coopers new theory and medicines which has spread over the country so rapidly, Mir. Hutchinson has taken the side of those who say that Coopers theory is correct and his medicine all that he claims.
 Mir. Hutchinson's emphatic statement Is as follows: Anyone afflicted with chronic i'll health and a general run down condition caused by stomach trouble. who does not try this man Cooper's medicine is very foolish. I say this after a most remarkable ex- perience with the medicine.
 T heard of Cooper's success first when he was in Chicago. as I have a private wire to that city in connection with my business. Later, when he came east, I learned more of him and his theory that stomach trouble causes most i'll health. I have had no faith in anything not prescribed by a phy- sicinn for each particular case after diagnosis. but after eight years of constant suffering. during which time

After running amuck through the center of the city. slashing right and left with a razor as he ran. William McMahOn crazed with drugs. was fi- naIiy lassoed bv Alic Kellogg. a cow boy. after McMahon had cut down Harry Mitchell. superintendent of the Clara Consolidated Mining company, yesterday morning. The widest part of the affray occurred in front of the Hotel Adams, though McMahon was chased by the police from Second ave nue and Roosevelt street Mitchell re- ceived four cuts. one of them on the right side ofe the neck penetrating al- most to the jUsular vein. He was talk en to the Sisters hospital. Gaskin. a police officer who was attempting to disarm the inuriated man, was cut slightly about the hand.
 A companion of Mcbfahon's who roOmed with him and was also crazed with morphine. was captured late in the evening about four miles east of town by officers from the sherifrs of flee. This mans name is Kellogg and he should not be confused with the cowboy who did such vaIorous work in tying up McMahon.

PREPARED
 FOR CIRCULATION
Move of Citizens Looking Toward a
 Municipal Power and Light Plant.

IL was made public yesterday that at meeting of business men last Thursday it was decided to launch a movement for municipal electric power and light plant. by means of petitions to the city council demand ing of that body that it ask congress for authority to issue bonds to the maximum amount of s200,O0O. to con struct a plant. designed to utilize pow CT from the Roosevelt dam. It is stat ed that 200 copies of the petition to the city council are to be prepared for cir culation at once.
 The preamble of the petition reads as follows:
 Within the next few days the peti- ,ions will be circulated in Phoenix, and probably presented to the city council at the first regular meeting in December. The petition. which sets forth all the facts, is as follows:
 We. the undersigned taxpayers and citizens of Phoenix for the following and other good reasons. are firm in the belief that the time has arrived for Phoenix to own and operate it's light ing and power plant. demand that your honorable body take immediate action looking to the passage by congress at it's coming session Of an enabling act permitting the city to issue bonds not to exceed s20O.0OO. to be used in con structing a modern electric lighting and power plant to be operated by the city in it's interest"
 The four succeeding paragraphs of the petition are long and set forth statements designed to elucidate the arguments for q municipal system. and to demonstrate the economy of the project as against prevailing con ditions. also calling attention to the policy of the reclamation service and the provisions of the reclamation act where preferences in leasing power are assured to municipalities

I spent over $500 with absolutely no relief I felt that it would at least do no harm to try the medicine which I was hearing so much about.
 During these eight years I have been forced to go without solid food for five and six weeks at a time. I always had a sour stomach, was troubled with formation of gas. and led the usual miserable life of dys- peptic. I was dull. tired, nervous and gloomy all the time, and was always constipated.

He is not seriously injured though a little deeper cut would have meant almost instant death. Gaskin's. wounds were trivial.
 McMahOn and his roommate are both victims of the drug habit. They evidently went on a prolonged drug debauch yesterday.
