Although a verdict recommend ing extreme mercy was returned by the jury in the case of United States vs. George Smith and Jack Smith. charged with assault and battery upon the person of William Ainsley, who was beaten in hi, store on Wednesday morning dur ing the process of the removal of the building into the street, Judge Mal.by gave the convicted men a ~cathing srraignment in pronounc, ing judgment upon them and wound up by imposing a jail sen tence of three months and fine of s2oo and costs. Following this an appeal was taken by the attorneys ;or the defense and the bond fixed in the sum of $1 500 each, the bonds being furnished shortly after ward.
 The evidence was to the effect that the men had been drinking preceding the fracas. and Mir. Ainsley's testimony taken with bis appearance was sufficient to con vince tue jury that there had been an assault.
 The jury remained out most of Friday afternoon and it was ru- mored that they stood II for con- viction during this time. They finally reached a verdict by recon mendinY mercy to the court,

ONE OF OLDEST AND
MOST FAMOUS HORSES
IN ARIZONA DEAD

Bisbee. Ariz., Dec. 26.-Peacock,
aged 81 years, one of the Oldest horses
in the west and one to which the Cop
per Queen company has been busy
paying a debt of gratitude for many
years died yesterday. This is the
famous animal which won the race
to Tombstone in 1880 and saved the
Copper Queen holdings by allowing
Wess Howell. its representative to file
upon a portion of the present magnifi-
cent holdings of the company
Peacock a proud member Of the
breed of the same name, was the prop
ertv of Howell. on the day of the
famous race Howell with his papers
in his pocket mounted and prepared
to ride to Tombstone to file on the
ground At the same time Sam Wes-
sci, representing opposing interests,
mounted and rode out of Bisbee pre-
pared also TO file. The story of the
race that ensued has been made IA
nous in the annals of the west. Suf-
flee il to say that Peacock carried his
master safely through and the Cop
per Queen company became owners
of the magnificent property 1t now
holds.
Ben Williams at that time manager
of the company properties, for g long
time kept the animal in the Copper
Queen stables, as, its hard race had
rendered il practically useless for hard
work Of any kind Later the old
animal was put out at pasture, first
on the Beatty ranch and later, on that

Joe Downs brought the old horse to-
this city and has since cared for him.
His death was brought on by old age.

months. if the plan Of those who are
attempting to unite into a single mu-
nicipalty some fifty cities, villages
and townships lying TO the north ana
east of New York receives the sane

asplrant for urban honors is To ne
called the City of Westchestor and
will take IN all that remains Of the
original county of that name extend

ticut and with the northern boundary
of New York for it's southern limit.
II will be the third city OF the state,

the government Of the new city whlch

British and American SlumS
Compared

Through sensational magazine and
newspaper writer's the country has be-
come familiarized with what are CALI
ed the horrors OF the slum districts OF
our big cities Slngularly enough the
slums do not impress visitors from
abroad who have seen real slum con-
ditions, as they do the space writer's
of this ,countFy and their. readers
According to Father Vaughn, the
great London preacher, the slum dis
tricts OF New York impressed him as
bright, eheery, hopeful places as conn
pared with the slurns OF London, He
saw none Of the dun, sodden, hope
less degradations OF the worst parts or
London in New York. on the contrary
the majority OF the faces which he
saw on the East Side of New York
struck him as those OF wideawake,
eagerly against the leashes of proverty
and ignorance which held them back.
His stardard of living may be low
judged from the American standpoint
but II is higher than that TO which
he was accustomed before coming
here. and to a considerable extent II
is kept low in order that he may ac-
cumulate faster. At home ho was
unable to accumulate Mt all His am
billions are aroused to take advantage
either for himself or for his children
of the opportunities opened TO him
here and denied TO him before he
came to this country.
Naturally, the duh, sodden hope
lessness of the European slums, pre-
vading practically all denizens there
in, Is the exception rather than the
rule In the slums OF our big cities.
There are no generations Of native
slub-bred. The next generations of
the present slum dwellers Will be out
of them. their places taken by further
immigrants from Europe who In turn
will arise above them in the majority
OF cases. OF course there Ia differ
enee between the outlook OF the slum
dwelers In this country ana those
abroad, Ours have a future and know
it, The others have not.--SeattlePost-

Theodore Roosevelt, private citi-
zen. will surely hav burning Of
the ears on January 3. on that day
will begin the most momentous term
of the United States supreme court
since reconstruction DAYS. 1t will be
the beginning of the end in the long
struggle to decide whether the poll
cies of Roosevelt are to be the poll
cies of this country
Practically the whole Roosevelt
program of constructive legislation
will come before the court cf last re-
sort at that time. 1t will be many
months before the last cases are de-
cided-perhaps years. But all con-
cerned are now confident that final
decisions are about TO be reached just
as fast as the processes of the worlds
greatest court and the bigness OF the
issues viii permit.
1t is a strange fate that has brought
Rooseveltism to it's last test before
a reorganized supreme court. No Sc
oret has ever been made Of the fact
that Mr.. Roosevelt did not much
fancy the supreme court as he found
spite the fact that he appointed three
justices to its bench, it was far from
satisfying him when he retired from
the White House. And MIR. Roose-
welt was no more popular with the
court than it was with him.
MIR. Roosevelt is no longer presi-
dent, the supreme court that he did
not altogether approve has been re-
organized, and the great legislative
work of Roosevelt Is about TO. come
before the new court Tor the final de-
termination whether it is good or bad.
Roosevelt took moribund and OBJ
sclete antitrust law and, by series
of actions. breathed the breath Of
life into il. He attacked the great
est trusts in the land, and the de-
cision is at last TO be made whether
that law provides for destruction of
q trust.
Roosevelt made the issue and led
the fight for passage Of the Hepburn
act 70 regulate railroads Practically
everything Of first class importance
in that act will come before the su-
preme court at the impending term.
The commodities clause Will be there
again. the question Of the constitu-
tional right TO prescribe a rate viii

held unconstitutional, a new act was
passed which sought to remedy the
defect in the first enactment; and this
new law is now coming up for final
decree as to its efficiency.
The will be one case from Connec-
ticut-the famous one concerning
which Colonel Roosevelt and Judge
Baldwin had their tiff during the last
eampaign--and one from Minnesota.
In each of these the government ap-
pears as amicus curiae, in the effort
TO convince the court that the law
ought to be sustained. although It is
not originally a party to the cases.
incidentally, this appearance Of the
government in such capacity for such
purposs, has strong SAVIOR OF the Roos-
eveltian era,s f0raithe proceeding was
invented BY Attorney General Moody,
who induced the court TO give him
chance in this fashion 70 represent
the governments interest IN having
its laws sustained.
There are d few first class cases
which reach down to the bottom OF
the scheme of Roosevelt legislation
which are % -n0He before the court
at the approaching term. An official
Of the judicial establishment said to-
day: ''There will be a months work,
