General Advance
In Coal Prices
(Special from United Presso


New York, March 12-The fear that
general coal strike is imminent in
this country, involving both the an
thracite and the bituminous fields, be-
came real menace today when a
general advance in coal prices was re-
ported everywhere. Big corporations
are laying in a reserve supply of fuel
and the demand SO far exceeds the
supply that big prices are being paid
for immediate deliveries. Tomorrow
the operators will give the anthracite
workers an answer to their demands.

SHOWMEN GET IN COURT.

The J. Sam Houston Entertainers. who filled a two nights engagement at the Coliseum. Friday and Saturday night of last week, succeeded in get ting in the justice court here. It seems that the hypnosist and the mind reader quit work Sunday morn- ing and claimed wages which they alleged were due them. Manager Houston claimed that the parties had been paid in full. and on his refusal to pay the claim, r.. C. Belville. the hypnOtist, had Houston arrested on a misdemeanor charge under the Ari- zona statutes. Leland Simrell, the hypnotic subject, and Miss Edna Will son, who was the advertising card. having performed a sleeping stunt in the Toggery window. both filed com plaints charging Belville with having refused to pay them the money they claimed for services. The three cases were called at 10 o'clock yesterday morning in Justice Irwin's court and on motion of the defendants. went over until next Monday at the same hour. The parties are under bonds.

Jose Chavez Arrested and Held Awaiting Result of Injuries
 Received in the Melee.

Officers Burton and Peterson were called out early Sunday morning by the news that a man had been badly hurt in Mexican town. They re- paired to the place and found Man uel Acuna with d cut from a knife about five inches long on tine abdo- men, and later arrested Jose Chavez. 4 charge of assault with intent to murder was lodged against Chavez and he was taken to Phoenix and held awaiting the result of the wounds inflicted upon Acuna.
 It seems that there had been a party of the men drinking and hav- ing a time" when the trouble started Frank Arros, who was present, was hit over the head by baseball bat and has a very sore Cranium. The cutting of Chavez appears to have sobered the parties and the row stopped. Chavez, who works for Geo. Wilbur. went at once to Ir. Wilbur, who says that he was sober when he reached his house. Mir Wilbur aJ- vised Chavez to go back and give himself up. which he did.
 So far. no one appears to know just how the trouble started. or chose who do know are keeping still. Acuna is under the care of the doctor and is apparently getting along all right, though pr. Palmer says that it will be q couple of days before the result can be forecasted with any degree of accuracy. The knife dh not enter the intestines, but is q nasty cut and there is always danger of bloodpols- onng

MAID OF HONOR.

The managers of the Old Folks Day celebration have arranged to have the Maid of Honor chosen by vote. This has been the custom in the past. The king and queen are the oldest gentleman and lady present and the maid of honor is elected by the votes of the people. Heretofore it cost one cent a vote, but as this looked too much like purchasing votes. the man. agers this season announce that any one can vote and it will cost nothing to cast the ballot. Six boxes to re- ceive votes have been placed. as fol- lows: one each at the O. $. Stapley &, Co. store; the A. &; B. store; Crescent Drug Store. Everybody's Drug store; Lesueur & Co.'S store and one at the office of the Mesa Realty company. Voting can begin today and the polls will close April 10th.

resulted from a fall from his horse. Each of the physicians being most anxious 90 allay Leonard's suffcrings. packed their various cases with pias- ter of Paris and other paraphernalia suitable for such a case and hurried to the scene. On arriving there they learned from Mrs. Metz that Leonard had left the house a half hour pre- viously, anj that she knew nothing of where he was except that he had started for town. The physicians re- turning to the city entered upon a search for the missing Leonard, be- ing under the impression that he had been hurt somewhere away from home. After perhaps d half hour, Leonard turned up in town and tied his horse to q hitchinS rack and step ped out on two perfectly sound legs. In the mean time his wife has spent an anxious three-quarterS of an hour waiting for news from the husband, injured she knew not now seriously.
 During this period the aged mother of Leonard lay on her sick bed. where she has been confined for the past three weeks. in an agony ot suspense and fear. and what this shock may result in to the aged and suffering lady, remains for the future to show.
 The doctors and Leonard with his brother Phil shortly got together and one of the physicians being suspi- cious of the perpetrator oe this April Fool joke. called the suspected lady up over the phone and in a banter ing conversation admitted how nicely he had been fooled, and secured from the woman a full confession of her having sent in the calls. and the phy sician further learned from the lady that she considered the doctors, ons and all. very easy marks. This con- versation was carried on over two party line phone with Marshall Pe- terson listening at one of them. Al ter d short consultation with attor- neys they learned the seriousness of the charge which could be place'l against the perpetrator of Ihe joke However, it was decided merely that the lady would be given an oppoI tunity to Day the physicians for their services before specific charges were filed.
 It is assumed that this lesson and the payment of these bills. amounting to some sixteen odd dollars. will be sufficient in the future to restrain the lady from playing practical jokes without first giving due thought to their possible effect on others.

REGULATION BOX,

Peter AeDh has recently placel. what is said to be a genuine regu- lation mail box on rural route num- Der one in compliance with the order published several weeks ago in these columns. The box is set on a post just high enough to allow the rear wheel of a buggy to pass under it. The back edge of the box is set flush with the back edge of the post and a brace placed from the front end extending down to the post. When it is constructed in this way. ample room is left for 2 buggy to drive within easy range of it. The local postoffice force are in the hope that other patrons of the rural routes will place their boxes in d manner similar to this one.
