Hewington wan loudly calling for Ep
pings.
Just then. however. 1t was Eppings'
turn to try stopping the prisoner. He
was already jumping from one side of
the road to the other in order to con-
fuse the enemy when Mr. Hewing-
tons cries for assistance distracted
his attention from the game. Years
Of training showed there. Eppings
abandoned his post and started for his
master. A yell of rage from Timmins
reached his ears. Eppings saw the
fugitive about to speed past him. For
a second he hesitated. Then. unlim-
bering his long legs and throwing dis
erection to the winds. he hurled him
self headlong across the road. wrap
ped his long arms midway about the
/ frock coat. and. amid cloud Of dust
captor and captive came desperately

AS such things go 1t was rather a
stirring finish-for it was all over.
( 'As fine tackle as | ever saw

pings, you're winner. But how did
1t all happen? How did he get out?''
The Countess Vecchi, who, with the
help Of Mrs. Timmins. had separated
Mr.. Hewington from the calf, came
up just In time to hear this question
asked.

with faint grimace in the very face
Of the baffied Timmins, he started off.
Not until he had disappeared around
the first curve of the driveway was
word spoken. Then Cherub Devine,
who had been regarding the averted
face of the countess with a whimsical
look In his blue eyes. broke the spell.

"Oh, then you had talk with him,

steadily at him, and she paused as If
to invite criticism of her action.
The Cherub shrugged his shoulders.
He was beginning to realize that some
thing more than the mere escape of

As he gazed about the little group of
mystified persons he saw Mr.. Hew-

good deal rumpled as to appearance
from his recent experience with the

IOWA CONVENTION
 ExC|TES INTEREST
CHIEF BUSINESS OF THE RE PUBLIcANs WILL BE ADOPTION OF PLATFORM

DIES MONIES la, Aug. 2:-The early arrival in this city of a host of prominent Republican leaders from every part in Iowa affords evidence in support of the general expection that tomorrow's State convention will be an exceedingly lively and interesting gathering. The convention will not be primarily a nominating convention. With the exception of candidates for the judiciary nominating for State office were recently made at primaries The chief business of the convention will be to adopt a platform.
 The standpat Republicans, though defeated in the primaries, have not given up the fight and they propose make every effort to gain control. All ind cations, however, are that the con vention will be controlled by the in surgent or progressive faction under the leadership of Senator Deliver and Cummins. If these indications are borne out the convention undoubted- ly, will frame a platform modelled scter that adopted by the Indiana Re publicans. In all probability Senators Cummhe and Deliver will be in dorsed for their fight in the cause of political righteousness.
 The convention will have added in

h0 GENERAL RAINS
 HAVE YET APPEARED
BUT PETE JOHNSON OF BIsBEE THINKS THEY MAY COME BE. FORE LONG.

DOUGLAS. Aug. 2.-(Special.) )-
 The rains up to the present this season, have not been general and there are many localities in this part of the territory where there has not been sufficient to start the grass growing"
 Thus spoke Pete Johnson, the pio- neer citizen of Bisbee. who has been continually in the catle business for a quarter Of a century.
 However, Mir. Johnson states that 1t is not too late yet for general rains. which would reach every local .ity. The fact that local showers have been plentiful during July Is indicative of a good season. Good rains in August. or before the middle of September would insure a grass crop and good conditions on the ranges.
 Cochise county leads all others in Arizona in the importance of it's cat tie industry. In the Huachucas, the Dragons and the Chiricahua noun tains are thousands of cattle of excel lent grade and in the San Simon the Sulphur Springs and the San Pedro valleys are many thousands more. Then just across the inter. national. line in Sonora is a vast cat tie growing country supporting vast herds, including those of the Greene Cattle company, the Packard compa ny, the Hohstadt ranges. those of the Moctezuma Copper company and the extensive Sherman holdings just below Nacozari All this Sonora in dustry is tributary to Douglas ana towns and amounts to a vast sup port to the merchants of these To calities.

MIAMI COMPANY
 CURTAILS WORK
UNDERGROUND WORK IS POST TONED UNTIL NEW PLANT IS COMPLETED AT GLOBE

GLOBE, Aug. 2.-with the excep ton of the curtailment of the develop ment work. things at Miami are pro gressing as usual. The reason for lay ing off part of the underground force is that the mine is at present in such vast stage Of development that further underground work would not be advisable. It may seem at glance that the possibility of opening up too much ore could not be disadvantage but when it is considered that under ground drifts and cross-cuts are de- cidely expenseve and that a drift op- ened up two or three years before it est it is evident that the action of the Miami people is a wse one. They are at least ont going to make the mistake of the Butte mines where some frifts and cross-cuts stood for such a period traction of ore that they had to be re- timbersd as many as five times to be ke1t gerviceable.
 The mine as it stands today has ten levels. Beginning at the 220-foot leVel there are sublevels twe.lty-five feet to the 370- foot level. Below the 370- foot level the next is 50 feet down or at a depth of 420 feet. This 420- foot level is to be the main haulage way in the first operations at Miami, and on it are to be installed the cleo tric locomotives for hauling purposes.
 The next lower level is the 4T0, 50 feet further down and the last one to date is 100 feet lower, or 57O feet for the surface. This is also to be a haulage level when the proper time comes. On the various sub-levels above the 42O-foot level, drifts and cross drifts cut up the ore bodily into blocks measuring 50 by 100 feet and in some cases 50 by 90 feet. Raises are then put up to the ore body, every 50 feet from the 420-foot haulage level.

MOST EXPENSIVE
 ITEMS FOR CITIES
SCHOOLS, POLICE AND FIRE PRO- FICTION TAKE LARGE PRO PORTION OF TAXES.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2-Accord- ing to figures prepared by the census bureau the larger cities of the coun- try pay more for schools and for po- lice and fire protection and related serveice than all other accounts. and of these two items the payment on account of schools is much the larg- est, the average per capita expense fir schools being $40 as compared with $225 for police and SLIP for fire protection.
 The figures are given as a part of the bureaus report covering the f. nancial operations for cities during the year 1908. The report covers all cities of more than 30,OO0 popula- ton, of which there are 15S. The az gregate cost of operating all these cities was s4o4,s97.312.
 The report indicates a general in- crease in the cost of maintaining city governments. In 1892 the average was s13.36 per capita. By 1908 it had advanced to s16.s1 per capita Boston heads the list with an ex pense cost of SPIES for each person comes next with a cost of $24.71 while Washington. with a cost Oi $24.63. makes a close third. Of the frst-class cities. New Orleans paid less for city government thon any other. the cost being only $12.7e pel capita

MEXICO OBJECTS ID ARREST 0F CONSUL
REGENT INCIDENT AT CLIFTON PUTS THE FEDERAL MAcHIN- FRY IN OPERATION

International complications are threatened by the recent arrest of the Mexican consul at Clifton on the charge of kidnapping. The Mexican government called upon the depart ment of state at Washington for an explanation. Secretary of State Knox brought the matter to the attention of Governor Sloan and requested a report.
 Attorney General Wright went to Clifton. where he made an inquiry and will report to Governor Sloan.
 Attorney General Wright has de clined to give any intimation as to the nature of the report he will make to the governor. explaining that 1t vas an official matter which he could not discuss.
 4 few days ago the Mexican con sul at Clifton. was arrested upon a complaint sworn to by R. A. Camp bell. justice of the peace at Mstcalf The consul was cha rgea wilh the lid. nsDpiug of Feliclta vasquez. a young Mexican girl of IT years, the oldest of five children of Filiberto vasquez. who was killed in a mining accident in the Clifton district.
 Upon the death of their father, which followed not long after that of their mother. the children lived with their grandmother, but upon her death they were left without any guardian, and the Mexican consul took them to the consulate to care for them until he could arrange for their transportation to Mexico where relatives of their parents were to take charge of them.
 When the eldest of the children went to Metcalf to arrange fer the re- moval of their household furniture to the consulate. 1t is claimed by the justice of the peace that she informed him that she and her brothers and sisters were being sent to Mexico against their will.
 l@dteT, rShCilid NdSqutLs NuO was student at the Tucson convent, felt better satisfied about returning to Mexico, and is now entirely satisfied, according to report. that the consul was acting for the best interest of herself and her brothers and sisters. The consul claims that he acted throu ghouf the entire case strictly in accord with the Mexican laws which makes 1t incumbent upon the consu- lar representatives Of that country to care for orphan children of Mexican parentage in a foreign country. The Mexican government provides trans portation home for all such persona. When the case against the consul was heard. the complaint was dis missed but it is not certain that hIs government will allow the matter to rest there.
