LOOKING FOR LOCATION.

n. C. Lewis. who is d former res
 dent of Oklahoma City, has arrived in Mesa for the purpose of looking for location to practice his pro- fession. MT. Lewis is resident of the Salt River valley for the present primarily on account of his daughter who is suffering from bronchial trou- ble.
 MT Lewis was a candidate for del- egate to the Oklahoma constitutional convention but was defeated how ever. the gentleman is of the opinion that to have assisted in the framing of such q constitution does not neces- sarily mean the meriting of any great honors. According to Mir. Lewis the constitution of Oklahoma even among great many residents of the state did in no wise meet with their ap- proval. the common complaint being that the delegates to the constitu- tional convention had burdened them selves with the duties of the legis- lature and in fact had made such a lengthy affair out of the constitution that the congressman will not have enc ugh to do to earn their money for the next several years.

THE INSTALLATION IF
 KNIGHTS 0F PYTH|AS

The Knights of Pythias on Monday ev ening at their lodge room installed officers for the ensuing term The occasion was made more interesting from the fact that Grand Chancellor J. F. Cleaveland was present to as- sist in the work. However, the ad-
 dress given by Grand Chancellor Cleaveland was the feature of the evening in that he not only dwelt up- on subject Of importance to Py- thians but the residents of Mesa as well. For the past several months during MT. Cleaveland's many jour neys over the territory he has earn estly talked for the Pythian home fund and his solicitations have born fruit As result of the fund a tract of forty acres was purchased q mile south of Mesa. While the in- formation concerning the purchase of
 this tract was given out some time ago through The Republican. this is the first opportunity that the grand chancellor has had of telling the To- cal members of the order of their
 good fortune in the location of the proposed site for the Pythian home However, he explained that the site or rather the land was purchased at
 this time for the reason that land all over the territory was apparently in creaSing in value and that it was the opinion of the committee that the
 funds accrued should be invested be- fore values went higher. When it comes to the selection of a site the chances are that the land already owned by the order at this place will
 be utilized. The chancellor further
 brought out the fact that the fiber ality of Damon lodge in giving when tho funds was first started did not
 work to their advantage when the time came for the purchase of the
 proposed site.
 Immediately after the ceremonies refreshments in the way of ice cream, cake, sherbet. watermelon and sand wiches were served. All the candi- dates for installation were not pres ent The officers selected for the
 next term are as follows: Chancellor commander, Dr. M. w Brack; vice chancellor. J. H. Allison; M. and A. Sam Barnett; prelate. H. .. Robert
 son: M of w, NJ. H. Best; inner
 guard, Frank Dkes; outer guard, Wm. II. Bukey.

IN
 4 YUMA CASE. 4 Recent Shooting Affair in
 That District
 .SELF-DEfEASE IS CLAIMED Details of the Affair Are Lacking Here, But a Spe- cial to a Bisbee Paper Gives the Particulars of the Preliminary Hearing.

There was shooting affair in the Yuma district the latter part of last month in which Leo Frankenberg, a brother of the three Frankenbcrg brothers of this place is concerned. A full report of the affairs has never been received here by the brothers. but they have learned in roundabout way that the shooting was done in self defense and that several others were concerned in the affair. This report seems to be confirmed by d special dispatch to the Bisbee Review from
 Yuma under date of July s. a part of which is as follows:
 No denial of the shooting of $. B.
 Sealy by the defendants. but self de
 fense and justfiable homicide was out
 lined as the basis of the defense in the
 preliminary hearing of Leon Franken-
 berg, Tony Sealy, Carl Bishop, Robert Bishop and Miguel Villa. charged with
 the murder of $. B. Sealy at Cibola
 valley. June 20. This was the defense as outlined by Attorney P. T. Robert
 son late yesterday afternoon before
 Judge J. C. Jones in the justice court
 which is sitting in the old prison din- ing room
 The prosecuting witnesses examined
 were Wm. J. Belford and wife. Carl Moser. Bill Inghram. Dick Stanton, Roy SeXsmith and Ralph Sealy. The examination was long and te-
 dious and the latter part of the after noon was spent in the s-examina- tion of the prosecuting witnesses by Attorney Robertson for the defense. The guns of the defendants were identified by Ralph Sealy and others
 and were then offered as evidence by District Attorney Timmons.
 The Savage rifle belonging to the deceased s. B. Sealy was also identi- fled and offered as evidence. The evil dence of all the witnesses who testi- fled on the point was that the defend
 ants were advancing on the Belford home where Mir Sealy resided, called
 to the latter to halt and hOl1 up his hands and that instead of doing so
 he called back: You halt
 "Wm. l. Belford on the stand testi- fled that he thought Mir Sealy fired first when the defendants refused to halt and that two volleys were fired at MT Sealy by the defendants and that he saw and heard MT. Sealy fall at | the second vOllcy.
 He stated that he was very much excited and that everybody else also seemed to be excited and that when the defendants called halt he was go- ing toward the house under the shade of which was MT Sealy and not think irg the men were calling to him he continued to go toward the house when Leo Frankenberg again called halt saving to Belford: If you do not stop l will shoot you
 MT Relford stated that he and MT. Sealy were arranging a partnership in
 the cattle business when MT. Sealy was killed"

FRIDAY CLOSING

Though an Agreement Is Now Being
 Circulated Among the Merchants.

The movement among the merchants of Tempe to adopt the usual plan of closing their places of business on Fri day afternoons is being placed on its feet. Yesterday the following agree ment was prepared and is now being circulated among the merchants:
 We. the undersigned merchants and business men of Tempe, hereby agree to close our places of business on each Friday afternoon from Friday. July 15, Co Friday.

 So far as can be learned, there is little or no opposition to the plan. It is generally agreed that if all close no one will lose any business by so doing and the clerks as we'll as the proprie- tors Of the different places of business will be given the benefit of a half-day' S rest during the week.

PMENTSAT
 H|GH MARK Last Monday Was the
 Record Day .FOR FRUITS AND MELONS The First Returns From Cantaloupe Shipments Show An Encouraging Increase Over the Prices of Last Year.

It is believed that the high water mark for this season in the shipping of fruits and melons was reached Monday of this week. On that day eighteen hundred crates of canta loupes were received at the station by the inspectors of the H. Woods com mission company and immediately sent out by fast freight to Chicago. The last and sixth carload of Thomp- son seedless grapes were also sent out on that date destined to the same firm and the same place. While the above represents the carload shipments to Chicago there is also the local business of the l.. B. John son & company to be included in this which covers the local markets within the territory and likewise in New Mexico and Mexico. The local com mission firm for the past several weeks has daily shipped carload of fruit and melons from this place.
 The first returns for the canta loupe shipments show that the two carloads sent by express will net the growers on standards $1,09 on the one car and S1.1S on the other. The increase in prices over the past sev- eral years has served to- encourage the growers and will probably result in closer picking and as a conse quence q greater number of carloads. The above prices represent the re- turns after the express charges are taken out The freight charges will be considerably less with the margin in favor of the grower. While it is d long guess to make d prophecy on what carload of cantaloupes will net the growers it is nevertheless a general belief among the growers that they will realize a good figure on their crop this season.
 The returns for the Thompson seed less grapes are not in yet but should commence arriving within d few days. The grape growers are anticipating good returns for the season. They probably sent out better product this season than for several years al- though the crop was about one car short
 Another feature which is worthy of mention in relation to the express shipments is that Mesa is the only town or shipping point in Arizona or the immediate southwest for that matter where an express car is side tracked daily and allowed to remain there for the loading of local eX- press. Hardly a better recommend ation could be given for Mesa than by the railroads which handle freight and express out of this point.

THIN FOLKS MADE FAT
The Way Ssmose Works Its Wonders Guaranteed by the Bear Drug Go.

Physicians and chemists for years have studied the problem of making s flesh forming food, but it is only with in the last few months that Q briSh. man discovered the prescription tha. taken with the daily meals gave posi- tive increase in flesh In fact it was SD certain in its action that a guaran- tee was attached to each package stat ing that if weight did rot increase as result of using it. the purchase price would be refunded.
 The preparation is now put in con Venient form for use under the name of Samose.
 Taken with each meal it enables the food you eat to assimilate with the system and that in connection with it's own flesh forming and tissue build ing food gives healthy flesh.
 The Bear Drug Co. secured the agency in Phoenix for Samose. and as the percentage of satisfactory results from the use of this prescription is nearly one hundred per cent it feels there is no risk in offering to refund the money if Samose does not do all that is claimed for it.

Ac- cording to Versluis it was an inn possibility for the animal to get through the high Page wire fence and the gates were found intact. The animal had the appearance of hav- ing received rough usage and it is barely possible that some tramp had taken the animal and having ridden her for a distance had then turned her loose to find her way back to the pasture.

DEDICATION OF
 CHURCH OF CHRIST

The arrangements have been com pleted for the dedication of the tenn porary building erected by the Church of Christ denomination in this city next Sunday morning. The sermon will be delivered by Rev. Phillips of the Church of Christ of Phoenix who was also instrumental in the organ ization and bringing together of the congregation.
 The church has enjoyed a rapid growth since its first meeting in this city d few months ago. The mem bers of the new organization for the most part were former members of this denomination in other parts of the country and some of them had not became identified with any local congregation while others upon the organization of d Christian church immediately affiliated with it.
 Much credit is due the different members of the congregation for the erection of the building The work, or d good part of it has been donated, the members giving freely of their time and money to insure d place of worship.
 hOWeNeT, tHe feature Ol lle CHuICH of Christ in this town is not in the erecting of d temporary church build ing or that the building has been erected for the most part by the members of the church or in the rapid growth of the denomination but rather the boy who occupies the pull pit. It is not the purpose of this article to eulogize. but to state fact. Maurice M. Blair. hardly out of his teens. the product of an ordinary Kansas farm, with a limited educa- ton and no great opportunity to have observed by travel delivers sermons of merit that would pass muster ill the first congregation of any city.
