though volumes Of speculation have been written,
the world knows almost nothing From his youth
he seemed to prefer that everything touching his
inner self should be shrouded, though he was
nothing loath to demand proper recognition for
the acts which he performed for his country's
good.
There have never been lacking insinuations
that the real reason for the admirals reticence
arose from his desire to hide certain things which
had been said touching his parentage. 1t
commonly reported at the time that John Paul
Jones' though born to the family of John Paul,
thrifty Scotch gardener at Arbigand on the Sol
way Firth, was in reality the of Lord Selkirk,
upon whose estate Gardener Paul delved. Care
full inquiry has disproved the scandal. Jennie
Macduff, the mother of the naval hero and the
wife of Gardener Paul, woman of charac-
ter, possessed in full measure of the homely do
mestic virtues
1t must be said here that the American ad-
mral added the name Jones to his family name
OF Paul at the time when he first made appca-
tion for a commission In the American navy Why
the name was added, though speculation has been
rife for more than century, one to this day
knows. The boy Paul, the youngest of five sons,
was born in little cottage standing in glade
near where the NTH comes flowing into the Sol
way. When only twelve years of age he
apprenticed to ship merchant at White Haven.
a village where years afterward the people fright
ened their children into obedience by the
tion of "the demon, Paul Jones'"
The future admiral's first voyage took him
to the Rappahannock river of America. Twice
three times the trip was repeated, and finally,
owing to the death of his master, the apprentice
was released from his engagement at the age
of sixteen An elder brother had settled on the
banks Of the American river, and with him the
boy lived and studied for some time He again
went to sea about the time that he attained his
majority, sailing for Scotland as a for'mast hand
in brig On the voyage the captain and mate
died. and the crew placed Jones In commands On
his arrival in Scotland the owners of the vessel
gave him the berth OF captain.

TRY WASHING THE FURNITURE

every few people know that furni-

man in the furniture section of

continued 1T is the best thing one
can do to keep furniture looking as
we'll as it should. One should take
bucket of tepid rain water and make
a suds with a good pure soap. Then.
with a soft piece of cheesecloth, all
the woodwork should be washed. 1t
is astonishing how much dirt will
come off. A second piece of cheese
cloth should be wrung dry out of hot
water On this should be poured
tablespoonful of first class furniture
polish. The heat will spread the pol
lsh through the cloth. Next. the fur
niture should be gone over with the
second cloth. There will be no need
of putting on more polish, for that
much will do all one needs. Too many
persons make the mistake of using too
much polish and leaving 1t thick on
the furniture, where it looks dauby.
and where 1t gathers more dirt"
There Is furniture In homes today
that Is cast of because of its appear
ance, when 1t might be brought back
to its original freshness by this sim
pie process of washing. Many per-
sons do not know that fine bit OF
mahogany is improved by careful
washing, and hundreds of pianos have
never been more than busted in years.

do the work, and the result will we'll

HAY RIDE PARTY PROVES 4 SUCCESS
OVER SEVENTY TAKE MOON LIGHT TRIP TO THE WARREN RANCH TUESDAY.

One of the most pleasing enter tainments of recent months in this city was the hay ride of the r. W. C. A. which took place Tuesday evening. the crowd going from Bis bee to the Warren Ranch, and after passing several hours there, return ing. More than seventy people made the trip.
 Four wagons made comfortable for the merrymakers. were filled with the members of the association and their guests. The ride was made each way without further mishap than a wheel coming of one of the wagons and giving the occupants a jolt. At the ranch a lunch was served. which was hugely enjoyed. En route to and from the ranch singing was the chief featdre, there being several guitars taken along.
 Beside those who made the trip in the orthodox manner there were a number of couples who drove in buggies and carriages.

The theft took place in Zacatecas. the Mexican settlement al the head oi Brewery Gulch.
 Sonora, when first appearing be fore the court Tuesday. pleaded not guilty and his trial was set for yes terday. When he appeared yester. day. however, his memory seemed to have been refreshed, after Linares had told of the circumstance of show ing him the weapon and later missing it from his trunk. He then remem. bered that having had a distinct thirst. he decided that he must Quench it in some way. even If he had to purloin something to pawn. The idea that his friend would ob- ject to lending him his revolver for a few days never occurred to him. he declared. The idea no sooner en- tered his head than he acted upon it and appropriated the weapon. later pawning il to a member of his race for S1-25, upon which amount he managed to accumulate a most de lightful jag Surely, sir. there is no harm in a mar gratifying his taste for good wine, is there?" de claimed and inquired Sonora of Judge High in one breath.

FlyIRAP PATENT IS
 SOLD FOR s25,OOO
6lsREE MAN REWARDED FOR SEVERAL YEARS OF WORK ON INVENTION.

A fly tray which will catch flies and hundreds of them at that. and holding them safely, is the inven- ton which has netted Joseph Kress, well known miner of this city, the neat sum of $2j, 900, eastern inter ests, understood to be connected with the New York Life Insurance com pany, being the purchasers. The trap is protected by United States and several foreign patents.
 Mir. Kress, who is an inventive genius, has been working upon the trap for several years. and obtained the patent papers for it in this country several years since. He then went about patenting it abroad in order to protect himself. He also took up negotiations with sev- eral different capitalists which re suited finally in his interesting the prospective buyers to such extent that the deal was closed yesterday, according to report.
 The trap. which is rather a large affair. has been thoroughly tested in this fiy-ridden city and proved an entire success. The eontrivance is about three feet long, rising from a solid wooden base, in the shape of a very narrow inverted V. The frame work is covered with screen netting of the same grade as that used in covering doors and windows. The secret of the trap consists oi the puzzling nature Of the entrance to the flies, thousands of which are caught Ln a few hours.
 It is understood that the traps are to be manufactured in large numbers in the East and exploited all over the country. Mir. Kress could not be seen last evening to ascertain whether he retains an in- terest in the invention, and will receive royalty upon sales II is understood. however. that he has sold his patent outright.

SPEED OF AUTOS
 CALLS FOR ACIIUh
LACK OF RESTRAINT IS ABUSED BY DRIVERS IN BIs8EE AND LAW IS DEMANDED.

When the city council next meets the members will be urged to pass lan ordinance governing the speed limit for automobiles and motorey- cles in the city as well as every other vehicle This conclusion has been reached by City Judge High and Justice Burdick, both of whom are greatly exercised by daily wit messing the daredevil exploits of local chauffeurs, who, without great regard for pedestrians, travel at a pace illegal anywhere, save in Bis bee.
 Attention was called to the fact that Bisbee was unique in having no law governing the speed of ve- hicles save those drawn by horses. When the ordinance was drawn the thought evidently did not occur that any other vehicle than horse-drawn ones wold become popular here. The law therefore specifies only horses and mules, and does not even add | Tor any other vehicle" when 1t sets the speed limit at six miles an hour
 Recently arrests were made and fines inflicted upon a party of joy riders'' who were charged with dis orderly conduct Whether the same charge would obtain to every speed ing driver of a motor vehicle or not is a question with Judge High, be- fore whom the complaints would have to be sworn to.
 Justice Burdick declares that with in the last few days he has observ- ed from his office a number of mar row escapes had by children from rapidly driven cars between the Copper Queen hotel and Brewery avenue and on Brewery avenue it. self. It is his belief that some thing should be done at once to make the motorists travel slower while in the portion of the city where traffic is congested.

Judge Wrioht Here.

Judge A. Y. Wright, of Douglas. passed through the city last night on his way from Cananea, where he was for several days on business. There is little or no foundation for the reports received on this side of the line about Cananea, so states Judge Wright. On the contrary, things seem to be very quiet indeed. Americans in Cananea are feeling rather angry over the continuance of spreading rumOrs of war on the American side. while on the Mexi. csn side all is peaceful. Such ru- mors have a tendency to injure bus. mess to marked extent.
