CATTLE COMPANY
 ASKS LEGAL AID

GLOBE. May 7-Alleging that George Shanley. as manager of the Shanley Cattle company has failed to account to the company for a large number of cattle sold by him and that he has refused to surren- der bis position as general manager in spite of the fact that a successor has been elected, suit has been filed against him by the Shanley Cattle company, asking for legal relief

 It is further claimed that during the time he held the position as gen eral manager, Shanley sold 1000 head of cattle to O. D. Fuller of Los An geles, at prices ranging from sl5 to S21 per head, that he received the purchase price and has failed to give
  an accounting of moneys received for the sale of the cattle.
 It is also claimed that on different occasions the defendant has sold to the firm of Shanley and Mounce. butchers, of which firm he was a member, large numbers of cattle and that he has so far refused to give an accounting in the matter
 Shanley, it is claimed, has refused to give up his position as general manager and is now attempting to sell cattle belonging to the company. The plaintiff company asks that Shanley be cited to appear before the district court and made 10 give full account of all of his acts as gen eral manager, that. the company be given judgment for all money due and that an injunction be issued re- straining the defendant from acting further as general manager.
 Stoneman and Jacobs represent the plaintiff company.

al hisn7cnsoss at Washington.
 Ol1 inhabitants of Washington were saddened the other day when rhe high wind overturned the famous silver spruce which stood guard near the north gate of the White House ever since Old Hickory planted it. in the latter days of his administration. The tree has been slowly dying ior years and in the hollow trunk gray squirrels had made a perfect tenement. At least six families were evictCd by the fall of the silver spruce. but they have found homes in some boxes which Mrs Roosevelt had fastened 10 some nearby trees. It is Goubtfui whether this tree could have been saved, though Jackson enthusiasts now express great indignation Ihat it
 was permitted to languish
 It seems strange that with the mil lions of dollars which the government spends on trees and forestry problems
 so little success is disceTnible In
 saving the historic trees of the capital Some of the most beautiful as well as historic trees have died within the past five years right under the nose, so to speak. of Clifford Pinchoi tree specialist. Other countries save their historic trees, as witness the yener- able cypress under which Tasso nedi- tated during his exile 10 Rome. It has been tenderly nurtured and guard ed by the Italian government and iron props and all manner of stays are be- tween it and the fury of the winds on the Janiculum hill. It is now so hoary and so visibly old that it Is ] really one of the most touching sights
 Tn Rome In Washington trees plant cd by Jefferson, by Alexander 'iIamil- | ton, by John Marshall and Daniel Webster have been uprooted or have
 fallen the prey to plant enemy. For theories the government is probably ] in the lead of all other governments
 on forestry questions. but as judged 1 from results seen in saving historic
 trees Of Washington, that is anotseS |, story.

N l MISTER 0F VE N EzUELA
 PRESENTED

WASHINGTON. May 7.-Ped.o Rojas. the recently appointed minis ter from Venezuela, was formally pre- sented to President Taft at the White House by Secretary Knox. His rec ognition completes the formal re-es- tablishment of diplomatic relations between Venezuela and the United States, broken of almost a year ago as the result of the refusal of Presi- dent Castro to arbitrate disputes be. tween the two countries The occas. ion was marked by addresses Of a highly felicitious character and ex- pressions and sympathy and fraterni- ty In presenting bis credentials Min ister Rojas said:
 From the time Venezuela declared her independence as a nation. and might as properly say. even before that time. when the idea of enamel patton began to stir in the breast or the old colony. the Venezuelan people always fe,. deep sentiment of ap- preciation and just admiration for the great republic of America. We looked up to her as sister who had pre- ceded us on the road to liberty, and whose example has always been one of encouragement to us, because oi the success attained in the practice of her wide institutions and the meth ods so judiciously selected to make of her a wonder of progress and con stant source Of happiness to her sons''
 In his cordial reply of welcom. President Taft said:
 The feeling of sympathy and good will which has existed since the inde- pendence of Latin America. and which, I trust. win continue and grow stronger with the coming years, be. tween Venezuela and the United States naturally calls for close inti- macy and friendship between the two countries and peoples. With the noble aspirations of the great Bolivar as the incentive for the principles ot freedom and self-government of your nation. it is fitting that your country and ours should clasp hands in fel. lowship. united in all that tends to strengthen the bonds of reciprocal in terest, commerce and good under standing. I have listened with par. ticuiar pleasure to your expressions of good will and in our endeavors to further the high duty with which you are intrusted you may be assured, Mir, Minister, of my most cordial support and cooperation.
 T ask you to convey to his excel. lency, the president of Venezuela. my appreciation of his friendly message and my good wishes for his personal health and happiness and for the wei. fare of the people of Venezuela.

SERIES OF CHARGES
 FOLLOW KILLING

The recent killing in the Swiss has resulted in a series of charges and counter charges in Justice Fay lor's court at Pirtleyille, involving the Kuykendahl family and several oth- CTS. Growing out of the tragedy, which was over goats, charges of rob bery have been preferred against the following: B. F. Kuykendahl, Rudy Kuykendahl, John Kuykendahl. Frank Smith, A. L. Esseriy, - Bowman and John Foster Other charges pre- ferred are as follows: Rudy Kuyken- dahl, Frank Smith and Mack Bowman, assault with deadly weapon: John Kuykendahl, threatening to kill
 complaining witness in numerous of these cases is Joe Imel, a goat own CT. who alleges mistreatment from the Kuykendahls. He was arrested also on a charge of robbery but was acquitted when tried before Justice Taylor.
 The robbery cases, it was stated this afternoon, will be brought to Douglas, Justice Taylor being held as competent witness in the case The other cases will be tried at a later date before the Pirtleville court. In the trial of Incl it was shown that he bought some goats from one of the Kuykendahs, s, payment for which was made conditional. It was alleged that Incl could not make the payment and he turned the goats back to the kuykendahls. IL is charg- ed then that other goats than those Incl acquired from Kuykendahl were driven away and this is the basis of the robbery charges. The assault cases grew sout of alleged attack made on the herders Of Incl.
 Deputy District Attorney Flanligan is here for the territory. Attorney Bob French represented Incl.

ORDER MAKING
 OF PAYMENT
TAE COPPER QUEEN STORE
lPhoenix Gazettel


 Notice of an order entered by the interstate commerce commission for the payment of s1330.64 reparation claim to the Kelvin Calumet Copper company against the Southern Paci- fife, Maricopa and Phoenix and Phoe- nix and Eastern railroads, has becn received by the Maricopa commercial club The order for repayment of excessive freight charges was entered April % and comes as a direct result of a complaint filed some weeks ago by Traffic Manager Jones Of the Kelvin Calumet company
 The history of this overcharge goes back to the time when the P. and e was taken over presumably by the Southern Pacific, and the sale was announced in the papers The santa Fe cancelled its through tariffs on the line, among the important com modities effected being fuel oil used in the operations of mines in -Ea Kelvin district The rate previous ,p the merger was about SC, but fJ" some time under the new regime through a failure 10 publish a rate there was no through rate CD oil among other things, and the Kelvin Calumet, Saddle Mountain and other comnanies were compelled to pay tae through rate to Phoenix plus Jhc To- cal rate to Kelvin, which made the total freight charge over s13 instead of S6 This was a very heavy burden on the operators, and coming at a tine when copper was saggir", com peIled the mines to close down. Com plaint was made 70 the railroads and later a rate ST higher than formerly was published
 W P Twitchell, superintendent of Jhg Calumet considered the over charge unfair and excessive and the matter of reparation was taken uT first with the railroad with the as sumption that it would be adjusted After nearly year of fruitless nego tiations. the Kelvin Calumet turned the matter of getting justice for the shippers over tO the Maricopa com mercial club. which had been organ ized. 4 complaint giving a statement of the facts was filed with the inter state commerce commission, which after investigation. issued the order for the repayment of s13S0.64 on g shipment of eight cars of oil or which the excess rate was charged
 The commercial club has received the transcript of the testimony in the recent hearing in Phoenix from Washington. It contains l0S0 closely typewriter pages of matter and 1; quite interesting.

Plain Shirt Waist.

The plain shirt waist is n which
every woman needs. This one can be
made as illustrated with regulation
sleeves or with plain ones that extend
in points over the hands and cal be
utilized for the simple, mannish, tall
ored waist or as a foundation for
daintier one that are either tucked
to suit the fancy or cut from already
tucked material. In this case butch
er's~ linen is simply stitched and the
waist is one of the plain, useful sort.
If it were cut from tucked material
and made with the plain sleeves
shown In the back view, it would take
on an entirely different aspect, yet
the same model is correct for both.

Unhesitatinp Obedience.

Peter was the man of impulse, the
man of action, with a swift-beating
heart and an e~very-ready hand. To
his forward-stepping mind, decision
was easy and immediate; and so, al
most before the command was COM
pleted, his swift lips had made an
swer; II will let down the nets"
1t was the language Of a prompt and
full obedience. 1t showed that his
nature was responsive and genuine.
He had learned to obey, the first les
son of discipleship; and having
learned to obey, he was therefore fit
to rule, qualified for leadership, and
worthy of being intrusted with the
keys Of the kingdom.
And how much is missed in life
through feebleness of resolve, a lack
Of resolve! How many are the in.
vertebrate souls, lacking in will and
void Of purpose, who, instead Of sur
mounting waves and conquering the
flow Of adverse tides, like the
medusae can only drift, all limp and
languid, in the current of circum-
stance! Such men do not make apos-
ties; they are but ciphers Of flesh
and blood, of no value by themselves,
and only Of any worth "as they are
attached to the unit of some strong
will.

How to Be Encouraged.

"David encouraged himself in the
Lord"-Sam. 30:6.
These words concerning him reveal
to US the secret of his Joy and sue
cess. Like Abraham, he believed in
God. Trusting people are a happy
people. They are contented and sat-
isfed whatever their lot may be.
They encourage themselves in the
Lord and therefore have a continual
feast. Their JOY does not depend
upon what people think or say about
them, neither do they depend upon
friends for comfort and encourage
ment, but they lean hard upon God
and stand upon the promises.
Those who encourage themselves
in the Lord are a great blessing and
stimulant to others in many ways,
but they carry sunshine with them
wherever they g.. Such people will
always be needed. They never need
to seek a place or position, but places,
positions and people, both friends and
enemies, will seek them. They have
no troubles and sorrows to burden
other people with, but they become
real burden-bearers for others, and
like Paul are able to comfort them
that are in any trouble by the COM
fort wherewith they are comforted
Of God.
Friend, If you have not yet learned
to encourage yourself in the Lord,
begin to-day and the result will be
glorious. (Read Phil. 4:4-7.)-G.

in Nineveh and Babylon and Rome

in Nineveh and Babylon and Rome
and Greece. Sennacherib was no
puny, petty sovereign. Rome gov
erned and administered the world,
but the care of man for ma" and self
sacrifice for a brother were never
taught as the duty of man until Jesus
came. I believe these things concern
the men of the church.
I have ventured, with some bold
ness no doubt, to invite the attention
of an assembly of lay churchmen to
what I believe to be a most serious
danger. Never, believe me, will the
selfshness of men be moved to altru-
ism, and what the Gospel calls the
love of our brother, if you break
down the church that carries the
Gospel, the teaching Of Gods love to
man; and your duty in this regard
is very simple. But If you will per-
form it, It Is potent for good. You
have church clubs. You have been
organized for some special service or
other, but you are a church organiza-
ton. Never forget that nothing that
you can do in this world that en-
feeb1es the Church OF God, or OBJ

count for man forSlong, nor between
you and God for much. Your duty is
to maintain the Church Of Christ, to
reverence her 'Sabbaths conscientious
ly as in the fear Of God, not for your
own pleasure disregarding the great
commandment. Your duty Is rever-
emily to feed upon the Word of Life,
and never to forsake the assembling
Of yourselves together, as the manner
of many is. AS for your duty toward
the State, 1t Is equally simple and
briefly to be stated: III any man
will do My will. he shall know and
If any man will seek to know Gods
will. he will be sufficiently instructed
in the truth as it is in Jesus. When
the largest of all our lay organiza-
lions for men (St. Andrews Society
was initiated, always the Bible class
was thought to be a natural and in
separable adjunct. I know not how
it is now, but I am certain that the
study of the Word of God is the very
best foundation of the faith. I do
not care for Biographies and archael-
ogies, but bring your common sense
to bear on the Holy Scripture, and
ask what it has to say to you for your
own life; how you can follow out the
teaching of the blessed work; what is
it's application to the problems of
the day; what comfort it has for your
sorrows; what hope for your reward.
Believe me, no man who reads and
prays owe and tries to live the Word!
of God is in any danger of forgetting
his faith.

How God Loves.

Words have never been able to de-
scribe Gods love for us. Even Paul,
whose descriptions of love are mas
terpieces Of human language, could
not do mor than family suggest
what Gods love is. An earnest Chris
tian writes to a friend: Paul, bless
his heart, in the closing verses of that
third chapter Of Ephesians, trying to
make US comprehend the wondrous
love of God, spreads it on marvellous
ly thick; but even he cannot find
adverbs and adjectives enough or suf-
flcient to impart to us his conception
OF 1t. So he just tells US that God is
able (and because able we know He
IS willing) to do for His child not
only all he asks, but all he thinks or
fails to ask; not only all, but above
all; not only above all, but abundant
ly above all; not only abundantly,
but exceedingly abundantly above all.
And there poor Paul had to leave it,
just as we do. And yet we doubt and
fear we ask too much. And He for
gives ever that" What room is left.

Time Enough For Every DUTY.

No nan has any more duties to do
than he has time to do we'll. COG as
signs all duties, and all time, and all
strength for the doing of duties; God
expects good work from all His chill
dren; and God never expects more
than is reasonable. Therefore when
we think that we have not time
enough to do all our duties as we'll
as we ought, we are either wasting
y time, or borrowing trouble, or
trying to do what we ought to let
alone. The %honey-5ee has a heavy
