At the recent conference between the judges in Phoenix last week the appointmen nt of the clerk was dis, cussed among them but DO choice wss made and none will be msdeGuntil the judges meet sgsip, as Judge Rose has left Phoenix and returned to his home h Prescott and sill not return to Phoenix until the time arrives for the judges to take the oath of office.
 From the present ststus of the sp- poiutmeDt it is certain that one or ;he other oi the trio of Judges will have to abandon his fsvorite choice and snpport the endorsement of one Of his colleagues.
 There are five applicants st present for the appointment as federal court clerk under Sloan, provided he laDds the jndgeship. They are George Mauk, presen. territorial auditor, AL len B Jaynes. present clerk of the dis trict clerk of Pima county, Sims Ely, Editor, former editor of the Phoenix Republican, Major Watts Of Prescott, and NJ E Cassidy, the Bisbee post :. master.

AS to AbsaIom Skiggs.

Absalom Skiggs has taken his pen
in hand to drop us a line to say that
we did wrong in rhyming solemn,
Column" and volume" few days
ago. Absalom points out what we
knew anyhow, that volume" and "sol-
emn" won't stand hitched
Well, Absalom we didn't rhyme
those three words. We knew the mo-
ment that they were penned that they
did not rhyme and that they never
will rhyme, not even by the aid OF
revision of the constitution or an en-
abling act of congress. We had no
intention or desire to rhyme them.
If we could, we would make "once'
rhyme with month" buC we know
VIC can't and therefore we turn our
attention to something else.
The world is fortunately not crowd
ed with Ablasom Skiggses. Once in
while you run across one OF this
family, but luckily they are few and
far between. What is an Absalom
Skiggs? Gentle reader, an Absalom
Skiggs is a critic who can't cr1ticlse.
He is the gimlet-eyed, shoe-button-
nosed, ngrowing-chinned, grass-hair-
ed person who watches everything you
do. He never misses stroke of your
hammer or sweep of your brush or
a uuaver of your voice or step OF
your feet or a turn Of your head.
And he never says a word so long as
you do fairly well. But the moment
he thinks you have made mistake
he Jumps up with an "Aha! You've
made a mistake!" That is all he
looks for-mistakes. Why, any meas
ly individual can sit down and COM
pile an Encyclopedia Britannica OF
mistakes any day in the week. Alb
salon Skiggs, however, picks out the
ones that don't matter.
Still, it is we'll that we have the
Absalom Skiggses; they make the
rest of us loom up by contrast.

Hone Goes to sheridan.

HOPE SOCS 10 OnCTIudUs
The discovery of the locket which had
fallen from about Keith's neck made 1t
impossible for Hope to remain quietly
for long in the hotel at Fort Larned.
The more carefully she thought over
the story OF that murder at the Chm
maron Crossing, and Keith's tale OF
how he had discovered and buried the
mutilated bodies, the more assured
she became that that was where this
.Iocket came from, and that the slain
.freighter must have been her own IA
Their. She never once questioned the
truth of Keith's report; there was that

init OF her doubling him. He had
simply failed to mention what he re-
moved from the bodies, supposing this
would be of no special interest.

The dead silence which ensued was
broken only by heavy breathing. Then
Scott swore. bringing his fist down
with q crash on the washstand.

you we've got to fight this affair

Bill
He went out into the hall and
down the creaking stairs, the man he
wanted so badly listening to his de-
scending footsteps, half tempted to
follow. Scott did not move, perhaps
had already fallen drunkenly asleep
on his chair. and finally Keith crossed
his own room and lay down. The din
outside continued undated, but the
mans intense WEAKNESS overcame 1t
all, and he fell asleep, his last con-
