THE WOMEN RIDERS
 OF WILD WEST SHOW
To Be Given for the Benefit of the
 Crittcnton Home.

Mrs. Echlin, who has charge of the arrangement for the events in which women riders will participate next Sat- ] urday afternoon at the wild west In-
 dian show to be given at the fair grounds for the benefit of the Critten- ton home, announces that the follow
 ing ladies will ride:
 Mrs. Mel Johnson. Mrs. Lillian Woodbury. Mrs. R. Ramage, Mrs. $.
 P. Sebrof, Miss Katie Miles and Miss King
 These ladies will be mounted on some of the best known horses in the valley and will take part in the grand
 parade immediately preceding the rough riding events of the afternoon. Miss Miles is widely known as the champion feminine relay rider of Ari- zona. while all the other ladies are ac- knowledged to be among the most graceful and skillful riders in the ter ritory Mrs. Echlin will be mounted on her handsome saddle horse, Teddy Rose. an animal that has been much admired by good judges of horses who have seen him. A numer of other ladies will also probably be included in the list and their appearance will add greatly to the interest of the oc- cdsiOn.
 An event of special interest will be a three-cOrnered race between the Porter horse. Schottische and Money Musk. all well known in the valley for their speed.
 Joe IsbeI arrived in town yesterday with a bunch of broncos which he an nounces to be the real thing with the hair on when it comes to hurling riders from the saddle Jesse Crewes has been constantly scouting round for the past week and has secured among others. a bad one by the name of Bald Hornet This brute is not only vicious, but he also has the endurance to buck long and hard, so that the man who attempts to ride him will be kept busy in the most strenuous fashion for as long as he cares to work. Bill Dugan win come over from Tempe and bring with him a number of Indians and MeXicans to add to the gaety of the occasion. The mounts of the latter will be equipped with most elaborate saddles and brides, adorned with sil- yer of superior workmanship. and they will lend that touch of quaint charm for which old Mexico is noted.
 All the Winchester Ais in Phoenix will be impressed for service in the spectacular attack on the old stage coach. and Jim Gibson, who will han dle the ribbons, is counting on the time of his life in controlling his team. If anyone thinks it is a joke to drive a six-horse team while crowd of bowling redskins is racing after it raising a thunderous din with fire arms. they will be disillusioniZed when they sec how it works out next Sat urday afternoon. If the team should get beyond the drivers control-well. there would be numberof ambitious young citizens of the Salt river valley liberally sprinklcd over a half mile of territory
 So when anyone offers to sell you a ticket for this show, just bear in mind that you are being favored with a request to witness the most thrilling and interesting exhibition ever given in the west.

WON'T STAND FOR WAR.

A structure known as StOodley Pike. which stands 90 yards high and Is sit uated near Hebden Bridge, England. has remarkable history. It was built in 1874 to commemorate the Peace of Ghent.
 Singular to relate, however, it fell on the very day that the Russian am bassador left England prior to the Crimean war. Rebuilt by public sub scription, it withstood storm and rain for half century. but on the same day that the British government issued it's ultimatum to the Boers it was struck by lightning and badly damaged. These coincidences have strangely perpIexed local people.

'|MPULsIVE FORESTER
 SURRENDERED HIS LIFE
1t All Came About Over a Juniper Tree.

Douglas, AriZ.. Feb. 1.-( Special Correspondence of The RepublicanO- That a man would sacrifice his life for a juniper tree. worth in Arizona about one dollar and fifty cents. sounds like vital paradox on the old rhyme of "Woodman, spare that tree. '' But one man there was in the hills just east of this city who was such a staunch supporter of the conserva- ton theories of the recently deposed Clifford Pinchot that he actually lost his life for mountain juniper. His name was John Underwood. and his slayer Harold Fl. Stallard, is now in the county jail here awaiting pre- llminary hearing before he starts on his trip to the jail at Tombstone
 The story is tragic in detail Stal- lard and his father. J. l.. Stallard, drove to the mountain in a wagon and feiled the tree. merely q stunted bush, in fact The tree was loaded into the wagon. and the two started home. On the way they met Underwood, riding a horse. With greetings the three men met Then Underwood's eye noted the tree Curses followed the detection. The Stallard's explained that the jun iper had not been cut from Under woods land.
 That don't make a d. bit of diff ference hotly replied Underwood; ''you've,-yiolated the law
 Young Stallard had a gun resting across his knees, pointed directly at Underwood, but the latter did not pay much attention to the weapon. Stal lard argued to the effect that if the law had been violated. Underwood's redress was in the law. Stallard at the cOroner's inquest claims that then Underwood put his hand to his hip, and advanced closer to the wagon. There was flash from the gun on Stallard's knee; Underwood swayed in his saddle, the horse leaped back. bearing the falling rider. who toppled. was dragged a few feet. and then dropped clear of the stirrups. He arose. lifted his hands and fell upon his back, dead.
 Underwood and the Stallard's were neighbors for years The dead man came from Hamilton. Texas. His widow was present at the inquest The jury rendered verdict in accordance with the foregoing facts
 Now the second life Is in jeopardy all for juniper tree worth $50

ADVERTISEMENT MUST BE
 EXCHANGE Of CONFIDENCE
A View of the Matter Held by Balke's
 Big Curio Store.

When an advertiser has some article to sell. in which he has implicit con fidcnce, he takes pleasure in lnorm- ing hts customers. present and pros pectivc. of it's merits in detail. He puts his word squarely behind it and challenges the world to produce its equal at the same price. He does not indulge in the generality, best goods at lowest prices" the commonest and most meaningless phrase in the busi- ness world
 The man with confidence in his goods makes clear and comprehensive statements regarding them: offers guaranties which can have but one meaning He has taken a position from which there can be no retreat. If the people who are attracted by his advertisements keep coming back for more goods, his advertising invest ment is not thrown away.
 IL will be remembered that the ad- Vertisements of Balke's Big Curio store have been the medium through which the proprietor has taken the public into his confidence and has told them plainly all about his stock. He has told them how the genuine is all ways to be distinguished from the spurious and he has given them every opportunity to know as much about his goods as he does himself.
 This has been especially so with ref erence to Navajo blankets. concerning which SO little has been generally known outside the trade The Big Curio store has explained time and again that its patrons cannot be de- ceived in the purchase of Navajo blankets and that they will save mon- ey by buying them there.
 This explanation is backed by two guaranties: one is that if the purchas- er is dissatisfied at any time he can have his money back. The other guar anty. based on the proprietor's knowl- edge that the blankets will increase in value from season to season. is that if a purchaser of a blanket will return it to him within four or five years. if it has been subjected only to ordi- nary wear. it will be taken back at least at the original price.
 One of the patrons of the Big Curio store learned the other day that this guaranty was even more liberal than it had been advertised to be. She said that she had two blankets which she bought of the Big Curio store eight years ago, paying S35 apiece for tho 4 neighbcr. she said. had just offered her sGo apiece for them. Mir Bake told her that he would be glad to take them back at that price and urged her. if she really attended to part with them, to bring them to him.
 She went away but returned the next day. saving that the ncighbor had taken the blankets at s15 each.

continuous disorder of shutting feet

tillery, the swift flames of discharge
cleaving the black shadows in vicious
spurts of yellowish red, the sullen re-
verberations Of sound shaking the no.

cial devotion of the church could be

any wasted attention upon the saints.
