THE EAGLES FLEW
 AND SCARED HIGH
At Casino Hall Last Thursday Night Nominations for Officers
 and RanOuet.

According to an arranged program at the regular meeting of Clifton Aerie No. 1890, met at Casino Hall Thursday night and placed in nomi- nation a pumber of gentlemen to fill the various offices of this excellent fraternal order About seventy mem- bers were present. and after the busi- ness session of the Aerie a banquet was served, at which a number of in yited guests were present.
 The banquet hall was arranged and handsomely decorated by Max Julig, the prince of artists from a blending of cOlors and arrangement standpoint. The tables looked very inviting and pleasing, with the tastefully display ed viands, and a bottle of "bue rib. bon" by the side of each plate to make the repast still more inviting. There were cigars galore, and also four bottles of soda pop, especially bought for the benefit of ''Rocky John" and Billy Hamilton, which ap- parently had no bad effect on these gentlemen.
 Jerry Crawford, the town marshal, was there as master of ceremonies, as was his place to be, for he had a half interest in the common stock of the rich "dump" spread out ready for the claws of the Eagles to gra b at, and to say that the stock lowered ia value rapidly, much to the delight of the investors, goes without say iEg. Hon. Dick Stevens of the s. & s. bottling works was the owner of the other half, and while he tried to bear the market the slump continued amid a roar of hilarity, song, music and repartee.
 Director Birmingham and his most excellent orchestra, kindly donated the music, for which he receiged a hearty vote of thanks from all pres ent, as also did Messrs. Crawford and Stephens for the good things they furnished to make the evening an enjoyable one, and they will long be remembered by the order, of which they both are influential members.
 At the next meeting of the Aerie, December l, there will be an election of officers, at which meeting there will be something doing again, if no adverse winds blow down from Alaska.

BROYLES BROS. SELL
 STOCK AND RANCH
The First Big Sale for GreenIee County of Cattle, Horses and Land---
 ACOIOradO Man Buys.

Last Saturday Judge Abe Broyles and his brother, Dick, sold to MT. Mack Best, of Pueblo, Colorado, their entire holdings in the new county of Greenlee, consisting of over a thou sand head of cattle and several hun dred head of horses. The sale went way up into the thousands of dollars and is the first one of any great inn portance in the new county of Green lee.
 The Broyles Brothers came to this section some IS or 20 years ago and since, and by close attention to busi- ness and hard work were exceedingly successful from the start. Their range is up the river in the Blue that could be chosen, for at no time were they short on feed and water, which is a most essential quality for the raising of stock anywhere in Ari- zona. These gentlemen richly deserve every dollar they have made, for by their fair and honorable manner of doing business they have gained the esteem and respect of their neighbors and all with whom they came in con tact.
 MT. Best comes almost as stran- ger, and Greenlee county welcomes him as man of energy and business sagacity. He shows his good judg ment when he locates and invests his capital in such a prosperous and growing section as the new county oi and the ERA wishes him bountiful success in his undertaking

First Automobile Accident.

Last Sunday the Abraham machine took run up Wards canyon, with the intention of making Coronado. Arriving at the Masonic cemetery the motor stopped, as did also the car. The occupants, MT. Sam Abra- ham, driver, Contractor Dilliner, MT. Nickols, the Shannon wood and air exhaust artist, and another gentle man, alighted. It was found tha. the gasoline had run out, and the vehicle was "a dead one, three miles from grass, water, motive power or gaso- line. After a short barley the tour ists decided that as they were all pretty husky they would pull the ma chine back down the grade to the Whipple place and secure the neces- sary fluid to make the old thing move. Sam made a stall right here that Dilliner and Nickols should keep their mouths shut while the hauling was going on, or they would not do their share of the work, and become eX- hausted before they got half way to the place of rescue.
 Arriving at the milk ranch. covered with precipitation and dust, with SI. 50 worth each of shoe leather gone, they succeeded in getting enough oil to get back to town on. Dilliner swears he is going to bring a damage suit against the owner, and Nickol's says that he will never forgive Sam, as his respiratory organs are out of order by keeping still so long and pulling so hard. not for friend at election but on that dead center.

that is, taking unfair advantage ar an
examination, or what is termed crib
bing" at civilian colleges. Many years
ago this was sometimes done. but a
strong sentiment against it was
steadily developed, as it is nothing
else than fraud, and nowadays a
"gouger" is at once reported by his
classmates, like a liar. and his dis
missal follows.
/ entered the naval academy in 1881.
From that time to this l have heard Of
but one case OF theft among the
students there. IT was a clear case of
kleptomania, as the doctors decided
after careful examination, and accord
ingly can not be regarded as genuine
thievery. The offender was fine look
ing fellow, who stood No. or No. 4 in
class, or which he was a "star" mem
Der; that is. entitled to wear gold
star on his collar in recognition of the
achievement of having his marks
reach S5 per cent OF the highest pos
sible multiple, all studies taken to-
gether. The strange part of the case
was the fact that his parents were
wealthy and he had everything he
needed. He never took money, but for
nearly three years he had been system
atieally robbing his fellow students,
who could not account for their losses,
until an accident revealed few of the
missing articles in the kleptomaniac's
mattress. Among them were things he
could not possibly use or dispose of TO
another. He was sent TO the hospital
under arrest. and Investigation ami
correspondence with his father led to
his resignation.
The United States naval academy is
not only a splendid military school. an
unexcelled place for developing health
and strength and good general edH-
cation, but it is a place peculiarly
adapted for eultivating the sense of
honor in youths. The liar has no place
there. He never stays.
