GOODRICH QUITS
 TOMBSTONE
Douglas Internationall

Hen. Ben Goodrich arrived In Douglas last night, coming from his home in Tombstone. After attending 10 business here he weRt to Bisbee on the afternoon train. MT. Good rich has for the last ten years resid- ed ia Tombstone as the general at terney of the Tombstone Consoli- dated Mining company, which re- cently discontinued all work. Now ii is the intention of Mir. Goodrich to leave Tombstone for the second time and go to Los Angeles, where he will open an office for the practice of law.
 Ben Goodrich first arrived in Ari' zeas in 1880 and located at Tomb stone That was at the beginnine of the great boom which made Tomb stone one of the greatest gold min ing camps ever known in this coun frv Soon after his arrival in Ari zona he formed a partnership with Marcus A. Smith, then a young mar inst starting in his profession. In iSs6 Mark Smith was elected to congress-. but the law firm of Good rich & Smith continued tor severa years after. In 1888 Goodrich moved to Phoenix and went from there C. Les Angeles in 1890, where he prac ticed law until 1902. when he return cd to Tombstone and took charge or the law business of the several AT zopa mining companies headed by Frank Murphy and F. B. Gage. Tn 1sss he was elected to the Legislative council from this county. that beine the only orice he ever held Tn All zena.
 Since the passage of the statehood bill last year Hon. Ben Goodrich has been looked upoR as one of the very able attorneys in Arizona who would be desirable on the supreme beReh. but now that he IS going away there will be better chances for others to wear the highest Judic- ial ermine of the new state.f
 Warm friends throughout the ter ritOry will very much regret the de. parture from Arizona of Uncle Ben and will wish him many years or success in his new field of labor.

OBSTACLES INITHE WAY
 IF COUNTY SEAT CHANGE

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-,(spe- ciaD-A county seat fight of large proportions is trying to make its way into the affairs of congress. but with the congested condition of legislation there is no probability that the citizens of Douglas and Bisbee who are ambitious to remove the seat of Cochise county from Tombstone to one of the former cities will receive consideration at the present session. It has been pointed out by the people from Ari- zona that the romantic old town of Tombstone, which became tho county seat in 1882, has suffered greatly from the shutting down of it's mines, and it is no longer in the front rank regarding population. as compared with the rivals for coun- ty seat honors. To those who under stand the congressional situation the futiIity of attempting to secure action by congress. on a purely local matter so late in the session, is obvious. There have been many visitors here from Ariz ma of late and some of these gentlemen who are not directly interested in the controversy, have pointed out to your corresDon5ent the fact that the territorial statutes provide a method by which 6 question of this kind may be submitted to the cleo torate. The attitude of the commit. tee on territories in reference to ,eeisIation regs- 1ng matters that can be handled by the state or local authorities of the territory, was distinctly shown in the report of the tax levy bill in which all mat ters that could be left to the dis cretfOn of the board of control was eliminated from the bill, the com mittee going on record at the time in expressing an opinion that they did not wish to legislate in matters which they could avoid

SEVERE SENTENCE
 FOR KIDNAPER

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-Regretting that he could not impose a sentence of fifty years instead of twenty-five, Judge Grain in part III of general sessions today sent Giovanni Gangi who was recently convicted of kid mapping 5-year-oid Rosina Giordino to Sing Sing for the maximum term under the law at the time the crime was committed, which was twenty five years. Then the court expressed its opinion in terse, forceful lan- guage. After recitng the story of the crime Judge Grain continued as follows:
 Your crime was one Of delibera- ton and not inspired by impulse. IL was prompted by greed. it was exc cuted with cruelty and in committing it you acted upon information which you had treacherously obtained from the parents of the child under the guise Of friendship. At the. time your crime was committed the maxi mum penalty prescribed under the law was twenty-five years. No great CT punishment than than can be imposed, therefore.
 Since the commission of your crime, however. the legislatures real izing the enormity of that crime and it's great perils to society. in creased the maximum penalty from twenty five to fifty years. There are no circumstances in your case that should mitigate the punishment to be inflicted upon you
 Sangi was an oil and wine sales man among the Italian grocers of the city. Rosina's parents kept a bakery at 55 Spring street. On March IT, 1908, Gang was in the bakery shop and on leaving the premises met Antonio Triferro. The next day Triferro took Rosina away with him when he encountered the little girl returning from school. He Kept her eight days in the house where he lived.

Turks and the Grave.

In Constantinople, as in other Turk ish cities, bodies are placed in the ground as soon as the last spark of life has fled. The Nussulman believes that as long as the body is unburied the spirit is in torment and that it is a crime akin to murder to molest a grave. Accordingly the cemeteries around many oriental cities far exceed in extent the a5odes of the living.

 After a ten years struggle. the house has passed a bill providing for tfe purchase and construction of American embassies, legations, and consular buildings abroad.

Mir Longworth declared that there were only two ways of broadening the scope of the American diplomatic corps, and talk ing it out of the realm Of the mil lionaire. One was to increase the salaries to enable 6 comparatively poor man to live on a scale with his colleagues, and the other was to provide him with a suitable house in which to live.

Senator Lorimer has repeatedly denied a current report that he intended to resign his seat in the senate. According to this report, the Illinois senator. convinced that the majority of the senate would vote to declare his seat vacant, had decided to act upon the suggestion of some of his friends and get out. The probability of Mir. Lorimer's resignation has been discussed, and some of the senators believe it will be announced within a few days. On the other hand Mr. Lorimer is quoted as saying that a resignation would be a confession of guilt

Woman Who Counts the Burned Money

The officers of the Royal Bank of
Canada declared their willingness to
pay the salary and expenses of the
government expert who should be sent
down. Miss Elizabeth Smith, who
was selected to go, did not wish to
make the trip alone and the bank
also agreed to pay the expenses OF
her sister.
So the two young women set sail for
Cuba. When they arrived at Mayarl,
small village on the coast of Cuba,
opposite Santiago, where the burned
bank building was located, Miss Eliza
beth Smith found that the officers Of
the bank had not touched the scorched
money because of their fear that the
charred remnant would fall to pieces.

The officers of the bank had only
opened it once and after seeing the
condition of the money had closed 1t
