Cells Flooded; CatiVes in Peril.

Chicago.-Prisoners in the Eagle
wood police station had a narrow es-
cape from drowning following a
heavy rainstorm which flooded the
cell rooms.
Michael Hogan, a frail man IS
years old. was lying in nearly three
feet of water Clinging to floating
bench-the only article of furniture
in his celtic keep his head above
water. The jailor finally unlocked
the door aud had the prisoner trans
ferred to hospital.
BY this time the water had risen to
such a point that only quick work on
the part of the police saved the
other prisoners. The doors were
thrown open and the men were as
sisted upstairs into the sergeant's
compartment until they could be
transferred elsewhere.

A MOman'S DiShOnOr.
By Winfred Black.

The other day in the police court l
saw a man who looked like a gentle
man and a woman who looked like a
gentlewoman.
The man was arrested for choking
his wife, and the wife, the sweet
looking gentlewoman, went on the
stand and told an Incredible story of
insane jealousy and wretched perse-
cution.
Her husband, she said, choked her,
and two days before he had kept her
in room for two hours with pistol
pointed at her head.
The gentleman was so clean cut, so
refined and so unusually superior in
appearance that 1 waited with I'M
usual interest to hear his side of the
story.
The next day saw the woman in
the case on the street.
The two children she had with her
in the police court were not with her.
The modest little housekeeping dress
she had worn when she swore to the
dreadful story against her husband
was changed. The gentlewoman was
gentlewoman no longer. Her face
was painted and she Haunted her
gaudy petticoats like a woman lost
to every sense of self-respect.
Poor fool; poor, deluded fool. She
has given up a man of honor whom
she had provoked beyond self-con-
troll. For what?
Not one word did her husband
whisper against that woman; not by
one breath did he hint at the cause
of the disagreement, and this woman
gave up I man like that. For what?
Sorry for the man? No, I am sorry
for the poor, silly. deluded creature
who call herself a woman.
In ten years from now which one
sill be the happier?

Bronco Buster Has Operation.

"Red" Sealey, well known Arizona
rough rider, steer roper and bronco
buster, is now in Lane hospital, San
Francisco, where a surgical operation
was performed on him July 6. The
operation consisted of removing a
tumOr from Sealey's brain.
The operation is said to have been
entirely successful and "Red'' is now
rapidly recovering, and as soon as
able to travel he will return to Doug
las.
The tumor on Sealey's brain was
caused by an injury received in Auga
Prieta in the month of May, 1909,
when his horse fell with him, during
a steer-tying contest.
After that he frequently had fits,
or violent commissions and finally by
an X-ray machine the cause of the
trouble was located and Sealey left
for the hospital in San Francisco.

Rope is Selected for Spence Hanging.

Sheriff Smith will begin preparations
for the execution of Flank Spence,
which is set for August 5th. The
place at which Spence will explate
his crime for the murder of Edgar
Sullivan, nearly two years ago, ne ar
this city, has been decided upon as
the main room of the county Jail, be-
hind the gates leading into the cell

The apartment selected is suffici
emily commodious for the placing of
the gallows and the floor spacious
enough for the accommodation of the
number of spectators the law
authorizes. The old gallows frame,
now stored in the basement of the
court house, will not be used. A new
frame will be built.
Heretofore executions that have
taken place in this city were con-

Douglas After American Mining Congress.


Douglas, Arizona, July-The Doug
las Chamber of Commerce and Mines,
which for three years has been
endeavoring to have this city the
meeting place of the American Min
ing Congress, now sees ahead good
hopes that at the meeting at Los
Angeles in September Douglas will be
chosen as the congress city for the
session of 1911. Secretary E. P. Grin
dell of the Douglas Chamber of Com
MERGE and Mines has been in COM
munication with the Secretary of the
Mining Congress and the various
Chambers of Commerce and Boards
of Trade throughout the Southwest,
and this city is receiving every en-
enlargement in the campaign. J. T.
Calbreath, Jr., Secretary of the Min
ing Congress writes from Denver that
it is out of his policy to enter into
such controversy, but he states that
personally he feels kindly interest in
the Douglas contention because "of
the fact that the membership dues
and fees contributed to the Congress

carrying out of that years campaign

Douglas has twice been within an

There is no better location IN the
United States for the session of the
Congress than in. Douglas. The city
has within a radius of one hundred
miles many of the most noted mines
in the mineral world, including the
famous Pilares at Nacozari, the Com
mOnwealth gold mine at Pearce, the
great copper mines of the Warren
district at Bisbee, and excursions can
easily be arranged for visits to all of
these and a hundred others. Hotel
accommodations are excellent in
Douglas, and the city has within the
past two years gained an enviable re-
putation for entertaining visitors.
