JUDGE STILL HAS THE $50
Condition Competitors Did Not Seem
to Notice Went With Offer
of Prize.

The walking craze of a few years
ago gave a well-known sporting man
an opportunity which he could not re-
sist taking advantage Of He had hand
bills widely distributed on which was
stated:
"A Great Crosby gentleman will give
$50 to the man, woman or child who
first succeeds In doing the following
task: To walk from the Pierhead
(LiverpooD to Crosby village. There
each competitor must buy a meat pie
and walk around the Big Stone and
eat It."
About a hundred entries were re-
ceived, and the walk took place on
Whit Monday. Much excitement pre-
vailed and great cheer rose as a
local pedestrian was seen leading the
rest Of the crowd. His meat pie was
soon eaten as he walked round the
stone, and he went to the Judge for
the $50.

didn't think you could have done It..

asked the ped.

The Last of the Territories in Continental
United States Ceased to Exist With
Scratch of the Pen
Ceremonies ARE EXTREMELY SIMPLE
First Chief Executive Of hs Infant Commonwealth Is AverSe to
Display and His Wishes Respected to Large Extent
Announcement Made Of Appointment of Former
Governor Sloan Federal Judge

Washington that President Taft had
signed the proclamation admitting
Arizona, the last of the territories on
contiguous soil and the forty-eighth
state.
In the ceremonies attendant upon
the birth of the state and the induc-
ton into office of it's first executive,
the military was conspicuous by its
absence, for the new governor is
averse to ostentation. There was but
meager. display of even silk, hats and
frock coats, which invaded Arizona
only only few years ago.
Accompanied by a number of the
newly elected state officers and few
close friends Governor Hunt, who be-
gan life in Arizona a quarter of cen
tury ago as waiter in small mining
camp restaurant at Globe, walked to
the capitol which stands just about
mile from the center of the city, out
broad Washington street between un-
broken lines of palms. When the
governor and. his escort arrived afoot'
the ALVIN and flower-lined walks of the
capitol grounds were crowded with
cheering Arizonians, the majority ol
whom will cast their votes for presi-
dent of the United States this year
for the first time.
The Inauguration ceremonies were
brief. After prayer by Rev. Seaborn
Crutchfield, who was chaplain Of the
constitutional convention over which
Mr.. Hunt presided, the oath of office
was administered by Chief Justice Ed
ward Kent of the territorial supreme
court whose last official act in thai
capacity it was.
Richard F. Sloan( Arizona's last ter
ritorial governor, stood beside his
I; successor. Then followed the inaugur
4 al address in which Governor Hun
promised the new state a "goldeI
rule" administration and pledged
anew his fealty to the constitution
which he helped to frame.

Washington, Feb. 14.-As the White
House clocks were striking 10, Presi-
dent Taft today signed the proclama-
ton admitting Arizona to the Union
He used gold pen which is to be
given to Postmaster General Hiach-
cock.
There you are" said the president
as he signed the last document.
In signing the proclamation, Presi-
dent Taft added the firty-eighth star
to the flag and brought within the sis
terhood of state the last bit OF ter
ritory except the District of. Columbia
within the confines of continental
United States.
To perpetuate the scene there were
three moving picture machines in the
president's office for the first time in
history and half dozen photographers
lined up with them on either side
of his desk. AS he signed the procla-
nation and its duplicate and the other
necessary papers, the click of shut
ters and the whirr of the picture ma
chimes marked time with me scratch
ing of the pen.
The crowd in the Office was un-
usually large even for such an event
and included, besides officers OF the
new state and government officials, a
score or more Arfzonans who had
travelled all the way to Washington.
After signing it was announced that
President Taft would send the nomin-
alton of Richard E. Sloan, former gov
ernor of Arizona, to be United States
district Judge for the new state, to the
senate.
President Taft sent the following
telegram to Territorial Governor
Sloan:
81 have this morning signed the
proclamation declaring Arizona to be
a state of the Union. congratulate
the people of this, our newest com
monwelth, upon the realization Of
their long cherished ambition. Bes'
wishes to the retiring and the incom
ing officials"

Richahr aYtes, war governor of Illi-

ployment was in a restaurant. Later
he became a clerk in the Old Domin-

Seven years ago he married Miss
Duett Ellison, native of Arizona and

daughter, Virginia. Like her husband
Mrs. Hunt cares little for display.
She is an excellent horsewoman and
an expert shot. Her vacations are
spent on the Ellison ranch in the
Sierra Ancha, 100 miles from Globe.
She goes to and from the ranch on
horseback carrying her little daughter
with her.
A flash by telegraph from Washing
ton that President Taft had signed the
proclamation of admission was the
signal for a wild outburst of enthu-
siasm from thousands of citizens of
the new state who had gathered at the
capital for the inaugural. The plea OF
Governor Hunte for a Quick, decorous
ceremony was forgotten. The air was
rent by wild shouts and yells, the
of whistles ana the heavy
report of bombs.

Mormons to Keep Arms

Ell Paso, Tex, Feb. 14.-American
Consul Edwards in JuareZ protested
to Enrique. Portillo, commanding the
rebels in the Casas Grandes district,
against recent demands made upon
Mormon colonists for their arms, Con-
sui Edwards informed the rebel com
mander that their arms were the only
protection the Mormons now have AMI
they would not surrender them. So
far as authorities in Juarez know,
Casas Grandes and vicinity are still in
rebel hands, regardless of kilograms
from Mexico City that Orozco has ef-
fected a compromise with them. No
attempt is being made to reopen the
Mexico Northwestern railroad by re-
building bridges.
