AND RISKS HIS LIFE
WHILE IN SEARCH or AN OF.
FlcER He cOLEIDES WITH
STAGE.

GLOBE July I5.-Because he lost q
watermelon when his horse SHE'D at
the Miami train and rode at break
neck speed for an officer to arrest a
trainman who objected to him throw
ing pieces Of the melon through the car
windows, H.H. Hotchkiss nearly lost
his life yesterday afternoon.
While speeding after an officer,
Hotchkiss' horse collided with the
stage team and he was thought to be
fatally injured.
Later, under the care of a physician
Hotchkiss partially revived. He is
suffering from a conclusion of the
brain, but viii probably recover.
Both Hotchkiss' horse and one of the
stage horses were knocked down by
the force of the collision. That the man
was not instantly killed can hardly be
explained, as he struck the hard maca-
dam surface of South Broad street
squarely on his head and with terrific
force.
Hotchkiss had just returned from a
hunting trip in the White Mountains
and was carrying a watermelon in his
arms. when he attempted to cross the
railroad tracks on North Broad street.
The horse became frightened at the
train which was coming in from Miami
and SHE'D. causing him to drop the
melon and break II
According TO the story OF bystanders,
he became enraged at the train crew
and got off the horse and began to
throw pieces Of the melon through the
windows Of the passenger coach. 1t
is claimed that the brakeman alighted
from the train and struck him several
times. Hstchkiss then mounted the
horse and rode up Broad street in
search OF an officer He had gone as
tar as Mesquite street when the col
hsion occurred.
DIR. Charles Sturgeon. who attended
the inquired man. stated last night
that he was confident he would re-
cover in a short time. Hochkiss was
formerly a forest ranger, stationed in
the White Mountains. Recently he has
been employed as a miner at Copper
Hill No blame is attached to the
driver Of the stage.

HOTEL N PHOENIX
DESTROYED BY FIRE
FIRE TRAP IN THE CAPITAL CITY
BURNS TO THE GROUND YES
TERDAY.


PHOENIX July 15.-The Belmont
lodging house. known also as the Van
Buren, Hotel at the corner OF First
avenue and Van Buren, street was de-
stroyed by fire Immediately after mid
night this morning. 1t was impossible
at the time OF writing TO learn whether
any lives were lost, but the general
supposition is that all Of the dodgers
made their way in some manner to
safety.
The hotel was peopled TO a great ex-
tent with invalids, but few OF these
were rooming on the second floor,
where the fire started. Those on the
first floor could have had little diff
Guilty in saving themselves.
Owing TO the character of the build
ing the fire burned with wonderful
rapidly. When the fire alarm "23''
again. was sounded at the drop of mid
night, the room was a mass OF flames.
The wind was blowing a gale and the
air was filled with sand and dust.
while lightning streaked across the
sky. Il was a most spectacular fire,
half the sky radiating a lurid glare
The wind was from the southeast and
showers of sparks, burning shingles
and boards we're carried to the north
west, starting lesser fires in several
places. The houses Immediately across
the road were protected to some ex-
tent by green trees, and the efforts of
the firemen and the owners prevented
their burning.
The building was generally con-
sidered one of the worst fire traps in
the city. 1t was built sixteen years ago
and was Of wood throughout 1t was
two stories high. The recent dry seas
on made it particularly inflamable.
The property is owned by City Attor-
ney Tom Prescott and was leased to
Robert NJ. Catterson, who conducted
it as a resort for those afflicted with

FREEZES To DEATH

OF MARIcoPA.

PHOENIX, July lie. A. Macon of

Mr.. Cater during that gentleman's

Of the death from freezing OF a Mex
lean at Maricopa station a few nights
ago. He offers as a corroborating wit.
ness Perry Williams of the Williams
hotel in Maricopa. As the lawyers say,
lit will be allowed to go in the record
for what it is worth"
According 10 the yarn, about a
ton OF ice was unloaded at Maricopa
for the use OF the residents Of that
place from train No. % and ac-
eording to custom the porter at the
Williams house dragged the ice over
near the hotel and threw a piece OF
canvas over it. A Mexican whose
name was not learned but who
had failed to recover from his Fourth
OF July jag, came on the scene and
choosing the top of the canvas fora
bed, laid down. He was in a half
stupor and too sleepy to notice that
the under part OF his bed was ice
How long he had been there is
not known, but as he grew cold he
began to tuck the canvas about him.
Soon he was directly next to the
ice with the canvas around his neck,
but still asleep. When in this con
dition the hotel porter discovered the
Mexican, but he was TO far gone to
be revived. 1t was a plain case of
death from freezing.

ATTORNEY HOWARD
OUTLINES HIS IDEAS
WOULD NOT HAVE LABoRITES
PUT EIGHT HOUR PROVISION
IN CONSTITUTION.

PHOENIX July 15.-With the exec
eeption OF his suggestion that no at
tempt be made to get an S-hour pro
vision into the constitution of Arizona
Attorney II. II. Howard outlined a
form Of convention last night that met
with general favor.
Howard declared that while he was
strongly in favor of an S-hour day he
was Of the opinion that an attempt
TO put II into the constitution might
result in the union men getting less
than they would otherwise, and that
later they could get legislation cover
ing this question as well as that OF
child labor.
As Howard progressed with his out
line Of a state constitution, delegates
70 the convention asked him ques-
tons, and these he answered In a
manner that seemed to satisfy the
most OF the union men.
While HOward's model of consii-
tuition includes the initiative and refer
endum in an improved form, IL
makes no mention of the recall fea-
ture This lie considers unnecessary
In view of the fact that the longest
term granted an official, is two years,
II, his opinion it would take nearly
two years to put the recall into oper-
alton and reach a decision as far as
state officials, at least. are concern
ed.
From United States senators down,
to constable of the smallest precinct
Howard would have them all chosen
by primary elections. He patterns
his election provisions much after
the Oregon laws but eliminates sew
eral Of the features that make the
Oregon statues covering elections
somewhat burdensome and unweildy.
no one class in Arizona should
frame the constitution for the new
state declared Howard. IF it is a
class document it means that the
railroads and mines will write il II
is the duty of the people of all
classes 20 unite and themselves frame
a constitution that will give them
equal Justice
IN Lue SiSCllDn OF tue IuuAtldie
Howard provides that a judge once
elected can become candidate with
out having to do politics in a con-
venJion or with the bosses. All a
judge who has served a two-year
term need do is to file his name with
the proper officers and his name will
be placed on the ballot.
Salaries are fixed on the ballot in
the usual manner. The legislature fixes
the salaries of all state officers. the
supervisors those of the county offic-
ers and the city council those of city
officers. The Legislature, however, fix
es the salaries of city aldermen and
supervisors. in order that these bodies
may not be fixing their own salaries.
Ballots are printed in all elections
without party designation. which by
many is conteuded to be one of the
strongest and most effective means
of getting intelligence into the vot-
ing booths to take the place Of dicta-
ton from party bosses. Howard states
that this makes men mark their bal
lots with some preference for the can
didate and not because he happens
TO belong TO any particular party.
