At this neat little edi6ce in North Clifton, founded almost when Clifton was first started, there gathered Sat urday evening the members of the cOngrega tion to bestow upon the Suu- day school children tokens of kind ness in remembrance of the nativity of Him who came to save the world from sin, and to impress upon the young minds that sense of holiness and homage due to One who came on earth to pardon all. The music rem dered was excellent and impressive, and the few short remarks of the well-kuown and beloved pastor, Curry H. Love, were a theme of Christian happiness that touched the hearts of young and old alike.

CLIFTON HAS VISIT FROM
 A VETERINARY SURGEON.
A. J. DOuthit and Luke Butler Accused of Doping hOrSes-.HeId Under
 Sl.000 Bond.

About the middle of last wee k
 there appeared in town two men who,
 with credentials from the lower
 valley, posed as ex pert special veter-
 mary surgeons. After passing the
 glad hand around among the livery
 and transfer stables, they inaugurated
 system of pollution among the anil
 mals which are daily required to per
 form duties equivalent to the business interests of the city. It became ap- parent to the stables and delivery departments of the various stores that their animals were not in con- dition to perform their tasks, as their breasts began to swell and in- ca paciate them from being hitched up to work. An investigation was started Tuesday and it was found that the animals had been doped with hyperdermic injection.
 Tuesday evening the manager of one of the most prominet stores of the town entered complaint before justice of the peace Moder and deputy Geo. Collier arrested the two men who are accused of introducing a new equine disease into Clifton.
 The excitement was rather of a warm character. especially among those who had been "touched," tor their horses had). "Wednesday, and the first complaint was changed so that felony charge was brought.
 The check artist may bring havoc and distress, but when a set of doctors? come to town and work on the dumb animals for the purpose of graft, it is time to call halt aud place them where they belong These two men came here from Safford, and it. is learned that the peculiar disease now prevalent in Clifton was not known then until these "gun'' artists started to embalm horse flesh before it had been slaughtered.
 Yesterday at II o'clock the ac- cused culprits were arraigned before justice Moder for their preliminary hearing, and large number of witnesses were examined, among them two ladies, who had observed the operations of the men, who in- stead of being benefactors to a con- muuity were proven to be very low standard of humanity.
 Attorney Horton conducted the case in a manner that brought forth the fu lest testimony, not only for the state but the defendants as well.
 The decision of the preliminary was that the two men, A. J. Douthet and | Luke Butler be bound over to the first grind jury of Greenlee county an a felony charge of poisoning dumb animals.
 A crowd was down from Morenci to learn of the courts decision, besides nearly all the prominent men of the town attended and talked the matter over on the street. Over 200 men i were around the jus ices court room and from the earnest way they ex- pressed themselves the ind nation ran high towards the men under trial.
