CASE CELEBRE IS BEING HEARD
 BY COURT
Money, Jewels and Even Vegetables Are
 Involved
(From Satusdsy's Daily)

After slumbcring for over three years in the Justice of the Peace Court the celebrated case of Mrs. Mary Diskin against j. II. McMahn was resurrected yesterday in the Superior Court, and revived interes, in transaction in which $2oO in cash is involved with secondary consideration linked to that amour, of money in the shape of a diamond pin of the value of $lI. alleged as due the plaintiff from the defendant
 In the lower court McMahn lost out. and before the statute of limita- tions intcrvencd the case was taken to the upper tribunal, and had a good start yesterday afternoon. The peculiar action of the law permitted McMahn to file cross-complain, when the complexion of the litiga- ton was reversed and he was the plaintiff instead of the defendant However. the money and jcwelry features were eliminated in the new situation that has developed, and now the price of bananas, butter eggs and other productions alleged to have been furnished the woman to offset the primary verdict re ccivcd, adds to the odor of tho litigation that has taken a new and Interesting departure. McMahn wa, 9 boarder at the Diskin home, and as railroad fireman running tc Phoenix had good opportunity to buy all kinds of eatables in a cheaI market. and for the koods furnished alleges that he has liquidated th, lower court judgment. The origina issue of the money and the diamond loss. he alleges was due to gros' carelcssness, and on this ground together with the mercantile trans action. his attorneys ask for yer dict in their cross-complaint. During the trial the borderland of a scnsa tional expose was nearly invaded but the issue was confined to th, facts that are encircled in the new legal departure.

YOEMANS OWNER OF
 VERY WISE HORSE
crrom Thursdays Daily,

An amusing and interesting spec. ,acle was witnessed in the corral of Ruifncr's stable just before ,h, storm yesterday afternoon. when the riding horse of Horace Yeo. mans gave an exhibition of in,elI. gcnce that startled the many who. witnessed the feat of this equine in "swatting the fly
 The animal was found waving from his mouth big grain sack, and the swish right and left of th. improvised fan was SO carefully di. rected that both Hanks of inc ani. mai were reached, and the fly had to move to other quarters. After the horse had been relieved for a few seconds the flies would again make their appearance. and the aui. maj would repeat the performanc. just as often as he was assailed, and with the same dexterity Fin. ally he was placed in the dark sta. ble. where the flies are not as an. moving as in the open.
 The breed of fly that is annoying livestock more this season than in former years is known as the horn type, which occasions more trouble to the horse particularly than any other quadruped. V. A. Reiehard, manager of the stables. states that this is the first time in his years of experience in handling horses that he has ever witnessed such high character of eqiunc intelligence dis played as is 10 the credit of Mr. Yeomans little pony. That the show was we'll worth seeing can be substantiaied by at least thirty spec tators.

CALIFORNIA FOR TAFT,
 SAYS r. M. MURPHY
fFrom Fridays Dnilyl

F. M. Murphy returned yesterday from San Francisco and Los An geles. and is optimistic over the out look of the adjoining state wheeling into line for Preside. Taft before election day comes around. He re- views the status of the campaign as 1t has progressed to date by say ing:
 Taft men are placing guards at all water holes. and when the Bull Moose comes around and attempts to quench his political thirst the re- sistence will be strong and effec. tive. There n . decided defection noticeable from the ranks of Rooss- welt among the business men, the property owner. and the iaboring men who have families to support and who want to keep at work at satisfactory wages. The light is be. ginning to dawn on the people and before election day has arrived the extreme and unreasonable rad. icalism that made Roosevelt's can idacy possible. will have come to an end and Taft will be wholesonely supported in that state and by the thinking men of che country. The most satisfactory thinking man is the one who is i'm. bued with patriotism. love of home ard for a continuation of present conditions of prosperity. I am glad 10 learn that Republicans of Ari. zons are bestirring themselves. They can carry the state for Taft. The sheepman. the csttlemsn, the mine owner and the prospector know where their interests lie, and you can't fool them much"
