SCOFIELD COMES
TO DEFENSE OF DOGS
(From Wednesdays naily)

Now arises J. V. Sco6eld from his
easy chair in the lobby of the Head
Hotel, and picks up his pen in de-
tense of the dogs and small boys Of
Prescott. In Tuesdays issue of the
Journal-Miner there appeared COM
munication from Louise L. Joseph, a
visitor in the city, who complained
the CANNES in this rarehed atmos-
phere, had by their nocturnal howls
driven her to the verge of distrac-
ton and Los Angeles, which is one
and the same thing. The answer OF
Mr.. Scoheld, after lassoing Pegasus
is as follows:
! saw this lady when she first struck
town
And knew right away she's kick
some one around,
For the sight of dog or some little
boys
Started her looking around for some
kind of noise.
Her nervous complaint we found out
too late
For she Immediately had us rub her
name off our slate
If we had known at the time she
was troubled by noise
We'd have tied up the dogs and got
rid of the boys
For we know Prescott is such a
blame noisy town
We cannot blame cranks for kicking
every one round.
We hope when again such person
arrives
Who have not had so much noise
thrown into their lives
Will send word ahead they are COM
ing this way
And we'll clear up the town of dogs
in a day.
We are all glad to know though
she has found a sweet rest
In dear little Glendale, small burg
in the West
And if she again comes, we'll try
and do better
If she'll only advise us, by sending
a letter.

ADJUST TROUBLES
AND SUIT is DISMISSED
From fridays DafIy.)

The breezy damage case OF
Irving Sharkey against Joseph E.
Johnson was called for trial from
the calendar in the Superior Court
yesterday, when attorneys for their
respective clients announced that
the differences had been adjusted
and dismissal was requested, which
was granted.
Much merriment was created when
the settlement entered into between
plaintiff and defendant was flashed
in the court room, as a basis for
ceasing litigation, which bore the
familiar and humorous heading of
The House of Mutt and Jeff, Of
Jerome" This letterhead, however,
had nothing to do with the COM
batative mixup of the principals, but
it again told the familiar story that
in the final round Jeff had again
lost out, in other words, Mutt had
silenced the aggressor. Sharkey, as
Jeff, had sought to recover from
Johnson, as Mutt, the sum of $1,000,
because the latter had branded him
as a very undesirable and dishonest
employee of his mercantile establish
ment. and discharged the man.
Rushing into court for redress, Jeff
Sharkey asked the above sum to
soothe his wounded feelings, and at
the same time believed that his
soiled name would be wiped away if
he had an even three thousand
plunks to heal the sore spot.
But Mutt" Johnson stretched
himself out full length and stood
pat" by refusing TO yield an inch,
when Jeff went out again in the
terrific right hand straight from the
shoulder punch When he came to,
according to the pact signed, sealed
and delivered, with his former COM
panion, he had an even fifty plunks
in his inside pocket, minus, of course,
the round of set 'em ups that closed
the breach between the two bellig-
erents. Attorney Leroy Anderson
was the third party in the fracas,
and held the sponge for Mr.. Mutt.
Whether Jeff will again become
identified with his boon companion
of yore remains a problem for the
future to solve.

Speaking of the long journey, they
state that the only trouble occurred
was with the tires, the sands of
the desert wearing them away. Five
large mountain ranges were passed
over, and not the slightest accident
has occurred to date to mar the
pleasures of one Of the most enjoy
able journeys they have ever under
taken. They contemplate being per-
manent residents and Jerome is
their destination today, to make OBJ

that the law governing the sale OF

destruction will be obvitated by this
method. Officers were requested to
enforce the statute governing the
sale by dealers of this article.

MAY DELIVERIES OF
CATTLE ARE VERY LARGE

TUCSON, May 28.-From Tucson
and her tributary territory cattle
shipments of large size are now be-
ing made, these constituting about
the last of the May deliveries. 1t
is declared that the May shipments
this year will prove to have been
among the largest, if not the very
largest, ever made from southern
Arizona. Add to this the statements
that the ranges are, almost without
exception, in fine condition, and an
easy explanation is found for the as
sertion that the cattlemen are pros
porous, happy and optimistic.
In the future, cattlemen assert,
the industry, insofar as 1t relates to
shipments west, will be very mater
tally aided by the freight reductions
in livestock shipments.
With Phoenix alone excepted, the
reduced rates on live stock, between
Arizona points and Los Angeles, or
dered by the interstate commerce
commission, viii go into effect July
l. The case has been dragging sew
eral years. Recently the commission
reached a decision and lowered the
existing rates materially, the reduc-
tions to become effective April l.
The railroads secured a stay until
May / and then till June l, by ask
ing for a rehearing and alleging that
the new rates were unreasonably
low. Corporation Commissioner F

CONDITION IN
CATTLE TRADE IMPROVES
Special Correspondence.

Special Correspondence.
KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS,
May 2o.-Conditions in the cattle
trade improved after Tuesday last
week except in the case of cows,
which class failed 10 respond to the
tonic of reduced supplies.
The run here today is light, 1000
head, and prices are strong on ev-
erything, with the single exception
of heavy steers. The approach of
hot weather reduces the call for
weight in killing material, though a
certain number of heavy animals are
wanted all summer Best medium
weight steers are quotable up to
S8.o5, heavy steers slightly under
that, and bulk of fed steers $50 to
S8.25, about half dollar under a
year ago. Stock cattle prices are
holding up strong, sales largely at
%.25 TO 800. tops $S15. A year
ago best stock steers brought $o85.
Feeders have followed fat cattle
prices more consistently, sales at
$40 TO %.75, top %.S5. A year ago
top feeders brought $40. The an
omalous condition, apparently, thus
exists that fat cattle are half dol
lar lower than a year ago, while
stock cattle and feeders are fifty
cents to a dollar higher than then.
The reason for the change must be
in possibility of outcome, in decid-
ing which feed conditions, cattle
shortage, and other things figure.
Twenty seven loads Southerns
came in today and sold at 5000 to
$50, strong prices, and there is a
! fair supply of pulp cattle here, at
$50 to $825. Native cows bring
| $575 10 S25, heifers $3.50 to $40,
bulls $6.25 to S25, veal calves,
which are due for a rise according
/ to experts, $3.50 to $10.25.
Hogs here today 5000, market 10
| higher, bulk $3.50 to $8.65, top $8.65.
A feature each day is the large num-
! Der of droves that bring top price,
six to twelve loads doing it segu-
larly. Advancing prices are largely
, due to subsistence of hog runs, to
Eastern markets, and prices here are
now close to Chicago.
Sheep and lambs are selling
: stronger, account of reduced sup
plies. Texas offerings are falling off,
and native territory is comparatively
I bare this season. Colorado is about
all out, and it will be slim picking
here for packers for the next two
months, and good prices should
rule. Spring lambs are worth up to

today, clipped lambs S.55, Texas
muttons $500 to $575, goats scarce,

CHARMS OF CITY SET
FORTH IN PAMPHLET

The Santa Fe has issued a very
neat four-page pamphlet in which
the attractions of Prescott and
Yavapai are alluringly set forth, and
proof given of the desirability of the
city and county as a summer resort
The pages devoted to weather cite
figures from the United States
Weather Bureau climat illogical re-
ports for the year 1912, giving the
mean temperature for the months
of May, June, July, August and
September, which show beyond per
adventure of a doubt that this sec
ton enjoys one of the finest climates
in the world-bar none. These
figures also show that the number
of what would be called warm
days is few and far between and even
these days are comfortable and in
viting by reason of the lack OF
humidity in the atmosphere.
Facts regarding the county itself
ar. contained in two of the pages of
the pamphlet and in a condensed
form give anyone all the information
that could be desired about this sec
ton of the State.
As advertising media, the pamphlet
could hardly be improved upon. The
Santa Fe is anxious that the dis
tribution be general and such as will
do the city and county good. To
that end the company will be glad
to supply the needs of everyone
gratis, particularly business men and
others who have extensive cor
respondence with outside points. If
the present supply becomes ex-
hausted, more will be continue to
be printed just as long as the de-
mand exists.
