PITIFUL PLIGHT OF
 TWO AGED PIONEERS
From Sundays paIlvl

MT. and Mrs. Patrick Kelly, the two old Arizona pioneers who passed through Phoenix two weeks ago on a tedious journey beset with many hardships from far Nevada down to Bisbee, by wagon, arrived in Tue son yesterday morning in circum- eumstances most pathetic, says the Tucson Citizen.
 Captain Shannon of the Tucson Salvation Army took their case in hand and whole-hearted townspeo- pie are extending them the hand of kindness.
 When Captain shannon found them they were encamped out at the end of Sixteenth street in Tucson. Kelly was in an almost helpless condition with his rheumatism, and Mrs. Kelly was crying in helplessness nearly as great. They had been unable to find means of getting food and continuing their journey.
 The old couples real circumstances were first ascertained to be serious and then every aid was given them. MT. O'Keefe gave a sack of barley, the Elks contributed four, lard and beans and the Salvation Army cap tain supplied them with some ready cash, clothing, shoes, etc.
 MT. and Mrs. Kelly lived in Tomb stone in the early days, and there they were prosperous and happy peo- pie. Nine years ago they went to Nevada-that was the time of the gold boom there-and until last au- tumn lived in Goldfeld.
 A few months ago Kelly fell i'll with rheumatism and as he could work no more they spent the little cash they had for a wagon and team and started overland for the warm and friendly land of their old home But the journey was harsh. The loss of a horse near Phoenix was one serious blow, but they secured an- other from Phoenix people and slow ly trudged on to their present stop ping place.
 Lack of food IS what has con- fronted them the last few days, and lack of anything with which to buy more. It is thought that through the kindness and sympathy of Tue son people the old woman and her sick husband will be enabled to pro- eeed to Bisbee without further hard ship of the kind. Both are over 70 years old and yet are buffeting the winter weather with only an open wagon and a canvas tent.

Calmly and peacefully as gentle sleep comes to the weary, the Great Reaper yesterday morning summoned Mrs. Robert E. Morrison who had been in i'll health for many months. Death was due to Bright's disease.
 The summons came suddenly and without the slightest warning. She passed away peacefully and as if go- ing into a deep slumber, and those at the bedside were scarcely aware that the end had come, so quietly had life ebbed away.
 Until a few hours before her death, Mrs. Morrison had appeared some what improved and had given in struetions to her husband on private affairs. This had renewed hope that the improvement noticed in her con- dition during the past three weeks was to continue. Several weeks ago she had suffered from severe attack of her illness, but with surprising vitality revived, and from that day to the moment of her death it was believed she would recover.
 Mrs. Morrison was a woman uni versally beloved in this city, and was a central figure in many kind and generous acts to the needy. She was an ardent and faithful believer in

SURPRISED THE COUNTRY.
From Friday s oahy)

A. J. Burmister, for many years a resident of the lower Agua Fria. where he is engaged in farming and stock raising, is paying the city a visit for the first time in years. He reports the trip to this city as one of much inconvenience and hardship, saying that the roads are in deplor- able condition. The recent storm he says was the heaviest in snow fall ever to take place in that region, and the abundance of the fall, over fifteen inches, was a surprise to the oldest inhabitant. MT. Burmister is a brother of our townsmen, R. H. and A. c. Burmister.

ARIZONA MAY WIN
 K. OF c. SANITARIUM.
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

/ In Knights of Columbus circles, affecting the afflicted of that fraternal order, interest is eentering around | the establishment of a national home for members of that order who are | suffering from tuberculosis, and the claims of Arizona are prominently
 mentioned and are before that body for consideration as the place to build that institution.
 Hon. R. E. Morrison, the chairman of the special committee, appointed at the last national council at Mo- bile, to take up the matter of es- tablishing this sanintarium, is wag- ing a vigorous correspondence with the other members of the committee, in the hope of having the preliminary disposition of the matter concluded before neKt spring. At that time all of the committee will reach Arizona and every point within the territory will be visited and inspected person ally by these gentlemen.
 With MT. Morrison will be E. J. Kerwin of Arkansas and J. J. Kelly of Chicago. They will report to the next national convention of the Knights that will be held in August of 1910 at Quebec. This committee will visit every desirable place in Ari- zona, and secure data, and finally pass upon the desirability of this territory as a site for the building of the home. The committee is anxious to make a thorough canvass of the ter ritory, and anticipate that several weeks will be occupied in looking ov,r the field, and in securing evi- denoe for the inauguration of a wOr- thy project to their afflicted breth- ren.,
 Yesterday a committee from the Yavapai County Medical Association generously came forward and ten tered MT. Morrison and his eo-labOr- CTS in this movement any assistance within their power, and agreed co submit data of an invaluable nature for the benefit of the cause, which was gratefully accepted by the chair man. Later this society will tender che information they possess, which will materially assist, the Knights of Columbus committee, when they reach this city for investigation of the con ditions in evidence.
 Mir Morrison says that while he is the chairman. of this important committee he desires it to be known here as well as elsewhere in Arizona that he is perfectly neutral in so far as the claims of any particular locality in Arizona are to be considered, but will endeavor to have the territory recognized, as the proper place for the construction of the sanitarium, without specifying any specific point. He is imbued with the spirit of the or der to have its afflicted members properly cared for and the best there i is in our climate and the comfort | of the members will be his unswerv- ing duty to the cause behind the good movement.

BUNCo ARTISTS ARE
 CLEVERLY CAUGHT

An old fimfam game, but ever
 new, for which two men claiming
 the name of Emery were arrested
 yesterday, caught a number of saloon
 men and some merchants. While the
 scheme is old, a busy barkeep or a
 hurried or absent-minded clerk will
 often fall for the bunco.
 At one place yesterday the Elm
 erys walked into the bar and threw
 down a ten dollar bill and called
 for two drinks. The bartender set
 out bottle, served them, put the ten
 dollar bill in the cash register, rang up two-bits, and. gave them back a five dollar bill and SAYS in silver. One of the fimfammers put the five spot in his pocket and left the change strewn on the bar. After few seconds had elapsed and the barkeep had waited on another GUS toner, Emery found a quarter in his pocket, told the barkeep he had the exact change and did not want to carry all that silver around. Elm cry showed the silver across to him and asked him to give back the ten dollar bill and threw down the quar- ter for drinks. The barkeep passed back the original ten dollar bill and Emery went out with that and an ex- tra five in his pocket. The barkeep did not catch on until afterward.
 The Emerys are now inmates of the county jail. One is in the wo- mems cell and thesother in the lower cell. Both claim the same name, but say they do not know the name of the other. The man in the woman s cell says his name is Samuel c. Elm cry. The man in the lower cell says his name is Samuel c. Emery. There are too many Samuel c. Elm ehys. to suit Sheriff Hayden. This morning he suspected that one man was taking the name of the other. Emery No. l said he had a card which would show that he was Sam uel Emery. Number averTed again that his name was Samuel Emery and that he had a woman with him and that her name was Emery. In re- sponse to the sheriff's inquiry he laid his name was Samuel c. Elm cry. The man in the woman's cell was asked what was his middle mi tial. His full name, he said was Samuel c. Emery. The c. stood for Charles. The sheriff then went back to cell No. and asked that inmate what his middle initial c. stood for. To save his soul this Emery could not think of any name that began | with c. at that minute. Finally a | light broke in the darkness.
 "C. stands for Smith, Samue. Smith Emery," he replied.
 "How do you spell it?" asked the sheriff.
 "C-h-m-i-t, smith, spelled Sam uel Chmit Emery, and the sheriff then went back to put it on the great register.
 The woman with whom the Elm erys have been living in little shack at 925 West Jefferson street, called this morning at the police sta tion. She told Marshal Moore that | she was destitute and had taken up with the two men to save herself from actual want. All the money | the Emerys raised by short changing had been spent, she said, and she again faced starvation. The marshal loaned her ten dollars of his own money and kept the ten dollar bill the short-changers had when arrest ed for evidence.

Premier Asqulth, at n meeting at

ut two meetings In London, made
great play at the expense of the peers

thought that, il the peers only could be

To volume and venom, the Liberals
almost might be content to hold their

The chancellor Of the eXchcquer eN-
pressed the belief that the peers never

seemed to think that the house of COM
mons was an assembly OF lunaucs ana
that the peers were their keepers. The
peers. he said. were walking through
the valley of humiliation to find work
for tho unemployed
The chancellor also caused great
laughter by describing his budget as
