SUNDAY SCHOOL PICNIC.
(COntr.ih11fod

Wednesday, June 21st, will long be-
remembered by Clifton Young Amer
ica,' the occasion being an excursion
to Duncan given by the Methodist
Presbyterian and Baptist Sunday
schools.
Promptly at $50 a. m. the train
left the depot and by the time it had
cleared Hills Addition was CARRYING
some four hundred lighthearted boys
and girls. from one to seventy-fiye
years of age. 1t was evident from
the outset that everyone shifted a
good time.
The Duncan Sunday schools and
pastors met us at their depot and es-
corted us to Mr. Burcher's ranch
where we found an abundance of
shade and clear cold water 1t took
only a short time to put up swings
and start. the usual picnic frolic.
Long before the hour of twelve, bas-
kets were being broken into and their
contents spread on snowy cloths only
to become the prey of good appetites
Immediately after dinner boys, girls
and few anxious mothers were seen
vending their way to the river. From
the shrieks of laughter which follow
ed it was not hard to guess why they
went, The smaller folks with the
older folks remained in camp to enjoy
candy contests, foot races, rope jump-
ing and in fact everything belonging
to picnic.
Later in the afternoon a ball game
was called between our Junior team
and Duncan'S Juniors. We we're proud
OF our boys, for although not well or
ganized and with but little training
it was evident from the start they
were better players than their oppon-
entS.
The game was drawing near the
end with the score standing to in
favor of Clifton, when for some queer
reason a certain party left the field in
answer to a call of Cupid, to a shady
nook Confusion at once reigned
the boys and the game was
8 to in Duncan's favor. i
Six p. m. found us in Clifton tired
Dut happy, with hearts full of graft |
-ude to the pastors and their able as
sistants for the excellent management
and good time enjoyed. And thus
passes into history one of the most /
enjoyable days ever enjoyed by Cliff /
onites.
The Clifton Sunday schools are
grateful to the good people of Duncan I
or their kind hospitality of Wednes-
lay last.
The pastors made the railroad fare
70 low, they had, no thought of reaIiz-
ng more than, eSpeRses of the exciff- I
ion. notwithstanding plenty of ice and 4
emons were used, there was neat
um of more than $4,000 to be divided
etween the three Sunday schools

IS considered serious-although she
has chance for her life. Mrs. Rowe's
wounds, while painful are not dan
gerous. She is at her home under
An inquest was held this afternoon
at the office of Coroner Hinson
Thomas
James Rowe testified that when he
had been chased into his home by
Hampton heb ad gone to his room and
attempted to get his gun which was
in strapped scabbard. Nervous and
excited he had been unable to release
the gun and had been compelled to
abandon the idea of securing it
when Hampton reached the back door.
Had Appealed to Sheriff.
Sheriff Frank Haynes testified that
about six weeks ago, James Rowe and
Mrs. Hampton had called at his office
and complained of Hampton. Mrs.
Hampton stated that she and and
her husband had separated and that
from remarks which he had made she
believed that he might do her bodily
harm. Rowe and Mrs. Hampton re-
fused to swear out complaint against
Hampton but suggested that the Sher-
IN warn Hampton not to bother his
wife. Haynes asked Mrs Hampton
II she believed her husband would
harm her to which Mrs. Hampton re-
piled that a man who would strike a
woman and break her nose and pour
hot water on her would be capable of
anything. She, did not wish to have
her husband placed in Jail, in the fear
that when he was released he would
surely kill her, whereas a warning to
him might cause an avoidance of
trouble. At that time Mrs. Hampton
also told Haynes that her husband had
made threats against Rowe because
he had cared for the Hampton chill
dren on several occasions. Rowe
stated that Hampton had warned him I
to not permit the children to be cared |
for under his roof The sheriff testi-
fed that he had gone to Hampton and |
told him that now that he and his !
wife had separated, that he must not
threaten her or harm her or that he
would be dealt with according
ly.
Hampton Feared Trouble.
F. H. Benbow testified that Harnp-
ton had told him that he wanted to
get out of town as fast as he possi- !
ply could because he did not want to
nave any trouble. He testified that
Hampton had told him he wanted to
90 to Bisbee and had made all prep ;
lrations to go this morning or tomor- '
'ow morning provided his brother AZ
vert would aecompany him.

The Duncan Arizonan says:

hC IuuCdu ATlZOudn says.
Judge Shirley of Clifton, was in
Duncan yesterday. The Judge is in
terested in Duncan's irrigated farm
lands, his property being located a
short distance above Duncan. Also
the judge is interested in a PROPOSE
ton that is of the greatest interest to
every owner of desert land in this
valley, and for that matter in the
whole southwest; that is the develoo-
ment of those lands through the cul-
tivation of the spineless cactus, the
product of the brain of Luther Bur
bank, the plant wizard of California.
Two months ago several of these
cacd were planted on the property
owned Jointly by Judge Shirley and
Mr.. Burtcher, one of our citizens.
For the first month the plants did not
seem to thrive, but lately they are
nicely. While here this
week, these progressive men planted
still more of the cacti. Should the
growth of the cacti prove feasible
in this territory, the wealth of our
valley would be Increased many fold.
