John Djetz No. Z.

Peter Vorbanich, an Austrian
homesteader on Mud Hen Greek dis.
liked the idea of the Northern Lum
Der Company floating logs down
this particular strea mlet, especially
that part of it which ran through
his land. 1t was not 80 mnch the
floating of the logs that bothered
him, it appears, as it was his desire
to get 100000 for this privilege.
When the company refused to pay
him this sum he fired two shots at
the men who we're in charge of the
drive and this delayed the matter
until Deputy Sheriff King with
one or two assistants went to the
scene of action in an automobile,
carrying with them warrants for the
arrest of Peter and his wife and
armed tor action. They rived on
the scene Tuesday afternoon aud
after exchanging a few shots sue
ceeded in capturing the rebellious
and stubborn homesteader.
VOrbanich was hit twice making
but slight wounds upon him before
he surrendered. None of the de-
puties were harmed. Vorbanich
was brought to Virginia and his
wounds attended to at the Lenont
Hospital. Since then he has been
brooding over the matter in the
city lookup pending his prelimin-
airy hearing.
So far as public interest goes this
will no doubt end the matter, and it
did not require the entire county to
capture the resisting homesteader.

I'm other words. the first essential
in profitable corn growing is good
land. and corn should be planted only
on land of at least the average fertil-
ity. II will be far better to cut down
the acreage. to plant only the best OF
the available land, to give this better
preparation, better cultivation, and
better fertilization. and SO TO mako
forty or nifty bushels to the acre, than

Maricopa's Greater Wealth.

Maricopa, which for many years,
until four years ago, led all the cuun-
ties Of the territory in taxable wealth,
is again at the head of the class with
S21 900, 900. an increase of more than
81, 00O,0 600 over the valuation last year.
This increase is not fictitious nor has
it resulted from a change in the
manner Of making the assessments. 1t
represents an increase in the actual
value Of property, mainly by i'm
provement. That is, it represents an
actual increase within a year of not
less than 100000 Of the county's
wealth, assuming that property is
assessed for purposes of taxation at
about half of its real value.
Many of us who are not very old
or have not lived in Maricopa county
from the earliest times, can remember
when the total taxable valuation was
not much more than the increase this
year We can remember still more
distinctly when we climbed to the
height of sS.OOO,0OO, and with what
pride we Haunted those figures in the
faces Of our neighbors.
OF this greater wealth, none worth
speaking of has been imported into
the county. Practically every cent of
it has been developed here.
The figures Of the assessor and the
county board Of equalization are not
likely to be disputed. Taxpayers re-
alize that they are richer than they
were a year ago. so that the new fig
ures will probably be accepted with
greater cheerfulness than those of
last year.

THE SECOND GROWTH.

A case is reported from Phila-
delphia similar to one of which there
were rumors in Phoenix some time
ago, of what may be called a second
growth" vermiform appendix.
A frequent recurrence Of such dis
coveries will be calculated to dispel
the notion entertained by laymen
that we are endowed with a single
appendix, which so far as science has
ascertained. is one more than enough.
The Rochester Democrat Chronicle
discussing the Philadelphia case,
says:
Fifteen years ago. in the city Of
Philadelphia. a young man whose
father is a resident of Rochester was
operated upon and his vermiform ap-
pendiX was removed. Purely as a
guaranty of good faith, and not neces-
sarily for publication, the young
mans surgeons gave his paternal
parent ocular evidence that he had
had 4 run for his money by dis
playing before his eyes the Identical
intestinal concomitant of which they
had relieved the lad Not long ago.
however, the young man was taken
IN at Batavia, and it is alleged in all
candor that the operating surgeons
discovered and removed another ap-
pendiX
assuming that the facts have been
correctly stated-and there is no rea-
son to doubt the correctness of the
diagnosis-this incident gives addi-
ti0nal evidence that the popular i'm

ready been made is not always cor

of the maid servant it had found its
way into the ash bucket, and in due
course into the hands of the chiffonnier
who practised in the district.
This worthy succeeded in getting the
poet to awake from his reveries and
to descend from the lofty heights of
Olympus, in other words his study,
to. receive back his souvenir. The au-

TOO MUCH LOYALTY IN AMERICA

The extraordinary amount of 10y

stitutions are not all that they might
be. Loyalty to country and flag goes
without saying, but I'm addition most
Of us are constantly being called upon

Ough, senatorial district and neighbor-

is in peculiarly difficult position; he
may have two or more states and cit
les to be loyal to-the state i'm which
he was born, the state in which he
married, the state in which most of
his business interests may happen to
lie and the state in which he actually
abides. Sympathy is certainly due to
the conscientious citizen who may ST

depopulation, to another city that

DEATH AND LIFE

The preacher of Jerusalem was man
of great estate" of solid possessions,
and these, too, he found Disappointing
as have others before and after him.
writes Edwin Bjorkman in the July
Forum. The one thing that never seems
to have occurred to him was that the
trouble might lie within himself Il
made me great works." he tells US; Il
yards. l made me gardens and or
chardS q got me servants and
maidens l gathered me also
silver and gold So l was
great, and increased more than all that
were before me IN Jerusalem"
Much he made and much he got-but
for whom? Note the me" that accom-
panies each new item on his list, For
himself he did and tried all those things
and the happiness they brought was
wormeaten. There are men today who
may not even be counted more than
worldly wise, and who yet now that the
great works and houses and vineyards
and gardens which they enjoy IaOst Sc
curely and most completely are those
they ordain not for themselves. but for
others. Here, as in many other things,
we find the preacher simply a child OF
his own day. and not the master Of all
time. But let US get nearer the heart
Of his plant.
And how dieth the wise MANI" he
called into the surrounding night To
which the answer came out Of his own
hated life.
This is probably today, as It has al
ways been, the worst despair of all.
The fear of death-how this motive
runs like a black thread through all
but an infinitesmal part Of mankind's
literature! Woe upon the life of man,
which lasts but a little while," cried the
Buddha. And at the heart of Schopen-
hauer's dark look upon life lay the
same resentment against his own dis
solution. In Europe and the Indies
1000 years before Christ or 1900 years
after-it is always there: the feear
Of death! But taking its cue from the
very men who offered mankind the bit
terest drink ever prepared for it-from
the Buddha and Schopenhauer. both of
whom tried vainly 10 goad men into
forestalling the inevitable-science has
turned that fear inside out And what
is thus laid bare to us, we find as
tOundedly TO be-the will to live, the
joy of living, the pressure of that vital
force which carries and moves and
guides the whole universe
