Prescott, Arizona, Aug. 12.-Mig- uel Peralta was sentenced to death by Judge Smith in the Superior Court yesterday for the murder of Mrs Car men Aros, at Jerome on June 29th, last. The date of his execution was fixed for October 11th, at the state penitentiary.
 Peralta shot and killed the woman and a Mexican named Juan Delgado, entering the room occupied by both, and later made his escape. He was captured near Tucson eighteen days afterward and brought to this city, where an infirmation charge of murder was filed against him. He appeared in court and pleaded guilty to both crimes and his plea was accepted by Judge Smith, who informed him, however, that this action would not be construed by the court in mitigation of his Sentence was deferred for several days and yesterday was set for the accused to face the inevitable.

HOW PERKINS BECAME
 4 PROGRESSIVE

The sincerity of the Progressive movement has been impugned by reas- on of the fact that George W. Perkins has been chosen to be chairman of the executive committee. In point of fact his conversion to the belief in the principles that animate the Progress i've party is a strong instance of the strength of righteousness and the pow er of principle.
 MT. Perkins got tired, as he puts it, 'of money grubbing" He came to feei that there was more to life than was to be expressed in terms of dollars and cents. AS he himself declared in an interview recently published in the Kansas City Star, he felt that modern industrial development had produced tremendous problems, and that if these
 nroblems were not solved. correctly things might smash" Disinterested- ly unselfishly and periodically, he has devoted his life to what is the largest service to humanity any man could attempt to render Our progressive contemporary, the Star of Kansas City declares, there is not a man about progressive headquarters who does not believe MT. Perkins is as earnest and disinterested a crusader as Gif- ford Pinchot, which, incidentally, is saying a whole lot.'
 In the solution of the problems through solving which alone can hu- man welfare more equitably be estab- lished, and more generally diffused, there is required the cooperation of men who bring to the work great variety of talent, experience and ca pacity. The Progressive party makes no appeal to any man simply because he is poor, and it does not reject any man merely because he is rich The test applied is sincerity of belief ana devotion to principle.

Every man in Company l. was killed excepting private Meek, who succeeded in reach ing the post ahead of the retiring cavalry. Other companies were de- tailed as body guard for the hospital Steward and the Colonel. Camp was reached at 12 o'clock-all dead
 Captain Knotts says that he will ask the next state legislature to award private Meek a medal as the sole sur vivor of this battle.
 At 8 a. m. Sunday, the entire com mand will be mustered by Lieutenant Jewett, U s. A.. and received by Governor Hunt Monday will be de- voted to athletic contests and We break camp Tuesday. and start for home Wednesday and reach Yuma the same night
 Later: Captain Knotts failed to state for what private Meek was to be awarded medal, but it is to be pre- sumed that the fast time he made in reaching the Fort is just cause. It is said that Meek made 15 miles in IA minutes. If so he must have had wings.

WHITMAN SLOWLY CLEARING MYSTERY
 SURROUNDING ROSENTHAL KILLING

New York, Aug. 12-This week, ac- cording to the authorities, will see the unravelling of a great deal of the mystery that has surrounded the mur- der of Gambler Herman Rosenthal. With the coming of Sam Scheppes from Hot Springs, Ark, and the pos sible confession of Jack Sullivan, the District Attorneys office is prepared for new and important evidence, cor roborating the confession of "Baldy Jack" Rose in which Police Super intendent Becker is accused of having instigated the murder. Scheppes ac- cording to Rose, rode in the murder car up town after the killing, and later paid the gun men for their part in the affair.
 District Attorney Whitman has sent an officer to Hot Springs after Schep- pes and has requested the authorities there not to turn the man oyer to any one without first receiving instruc- tions from him. Whitman wants his own men to talk with Scheppes, before the New York police get a chance at him.

We do not need to become the champion or advocate of any specific form of procedure to bring about such a result
 Peace wins her way not by force but by appeal to reason and con- science of men, This movement is to be advanced and promoted to success full ends and results only by the power of an enlightened public opinion.
 Universal peace makes it's appeal to the reason and the consciences of men, and not to coercion, The whole military idea is that of violence and is inconsistent with true religion"
