MR.. BELLAMYS STATEMENT
AS TO PARK AFFAIR
He Did Not Insult Miss Lash and Her
Escort.

A letter has been received at this
office from Frank Bellamy, care taker
at Eastlake park, who says that he has
been put in a wrong light in the ac-
counts of his affair with Mary Lash
and her escort, resulting in the trial of
the girl for assault upon Mr.. Bellamy.
Mr.. Bellamy~> that he has been
subjected to a great deal Of undeserved
ridicule and Censure That he easily
and successfully could have repealed
the assault the woman made upon him
he asserts. but that would have involv-
ed fight with a woman and for wo-
men generally he has great respect The
assault. Mr.. Bellamy further states
was not provoked by any Insult offered
by him for neither his manner nor his
language was insulting
Miss Lash and her escort he says
were in the park alone at az. hour
which made their presence there i'm
proper. In times past the park has
not enjoyed a good reputation. on ac-
count of the character Of people who
frcquented il. Mr.. Bellamy regards il
as part Of his duty as caretaker to
prevent the recurrence of such things
as have given the place bad name so
that whatever he said to Anderson and
Miss Lash was said in the course of his
duty.
Mr.. Bellamy has family which lives
I'm that vicinity and for that reason also
he felt that he was warranted in OBJ
jecting to conduct that appeared UNI
seemly.

VERY BRIEF STAY
At THE REFORM SCHOOL
Two Phoenix Girls To Be Brought
Back.

The statutes of Arizona do not apply
with directness To the cases of Katie
Fisher and a thirteen year old Mexican
girl who were recently committed to
the reform school from this city. They
were taken there but almost immedia-
tcly Col. Mahoney decided that they
would not perceptibly raise the aver
age Of that institution and declined for
mally to receive them. He wanted the
officer to bring them back to Phoenix
with him but the officer having fully
discharged his duty in delivering them
declined to extend his powers and the
girls were left.
Since then their cases have been oc-
cupying the different departments of
the county and territorial government.
One thing was agreed upon almost
from the beginning and that was that
they would have to be taken way from
the reform school
Yesterday arrangements for their
disposition were concluded by the board
of supervisors and the board of con-
troll The board consented 20 admit
them to the hospital Of the insane asy-
Ium and the sheriff's office was di-
rected to bring them back
The shcriffs office insisted on hav-
ing an order from the board To- Col
Mahoncy for their release from the re-
form school II was suggested. how
ever that the colonel would waive that
formalty and let them go on the mere
rumor that the board of control would
not care.
