sardonic twists of it's letters. down

peopled the boats decks.
Success! And all the men on board
were failures, as failures are counted
in this world. Some few deserved
punishment, but the offenses for
which the majority were convicted
were of the most trivial sort. A
present-day judge would probably be
dismissed from the bench and tried
for lunacy dared he pass such sem
fences.
At that period (1So2) there were
more than las offenses for which the
decreed penalty in England was
death, but the hangmen were kept so
busy that for the less heinous crimes
the sentence of death was COMMITTED
to one of transportation for life. or
for fourteen years The minimum
time for transported convict to
serve was seven years Such SEN
fences were given for the stealing of
piece of bread or a few apples, for
impudence to those in authority, for
almost anything that happened to
offend the authorities. There are re-
corded instances of women and chill
dren being sent into transportation
for the theft of a piece of bleached
linen or a two-penny pork pie.

MUST PAY FOR ALI MISSING
 GARMENTS
Court Decides ReStaur- ant Keepers Are
 Responsible

NEW. YORK, Feb. 2l.-Restau- rant owners received a rude blow here this week and owners of hats, overcoats and umbrellas long-sought for protection through a decision of the Appellate Division of the Su- preme Court to the effect that in spite of any signs which they might display to the contrary restaurant owners are responsible for these garments when they belong to their customers.
 All over the country the practice has obtained for years in restaurants and cafes of displaying signs to the effect that the management was not responsible for hats, overcoats and umbrellas, unless they were checked. For many decades the customer has patiently borne the burden thus inn posed of keeping one eye on his gar ments and the other on his food. Now, however, as a result of this de cision he can devote himself to his meal with the assurance that If at the end of his repast his coat and hat which he carefully placed upon a hook behind him are missing at the end, it is the restaurant owner and not himself who will have 10 do the worrying.
 As a result of this decision which was brought about through the suit of a man who did not believe in signs and sued a restaurant for the value of his hat and coat which were missing at the end of his meal, in spite of the warnings displayed disclaiming responsibility, it should now be possible to concentrate at tention on a meal instead of divid- ing 1t between food and garments. Incidentally those persons who make livelihood from the tips for check ing coats, and hats in hotels and restaurants may find their income diminished as the patrons comfort is increased.

 AT CHERRY CREEK
(From Thursdays Daily.)

L. N Wombacher, of Cherry creek, who is in the city on business, yesterday confirmed reports in circu- lation of the rich strike made recent ly on the Lucky Jack group, of which he is the owner, and exhibits samples taken from the shaft at a depth of about twenty-five feet
 He also stated that publicity was withheld until he determinations were absolute of the extent and val ue of the new ore body cut into, and that additional locations might be made A l.500-pound sample talk en from the shaft twelve feet from the surface and without any assort- ing whatever netted $62.50 in free gold, besides concentrates of non inal value
 The pay streak is twelve inches wide and is a deep brown iron ore, with the free gold visible to the nak- ed eye A fair average at the present depth would indicate values of at least $500 per ton. Four locations have been made on the belt which is situated in a new section of the dis trict, and which until recently was never prospected
 The Lucky Jack is situated about four miles south of the postofice on Cherry Creek. and already there has been quite a rush to the scene, with considerable local excitement following Mir Wombacher also states that Cherry Creek is passing through what appears to be a gener- al revival of many gold mines, and the present year has every indication of being the most active known in the past decade.

ed. He reiterated that fifty miners inches of the precious fluid of the Verde Ditch Company had been per mitted to run wild. At this stage of the case he turned to the court and asked that he be permitted to make an appeal to the jury. It was de nied.
 While a truce prevailed another humorous incident occurred, when one of the main witnesses for the plaintiff arose in the court room, holding his jaw with his left hand, and with a decided effort asked per mission to go to the dental office to have a noisy tooth quieted down, that his testimony could be forth coming without too much of an az onizing physical display. He was given carte blanche, and after the dope was administered he returned and took the stand with a laughing gas expression. The audience in the meantime was in the throes of sub dued expressions of merriment.
 The final assault was made with all the ferocity of thirteen inch guns, and the Tehachalpi ditch was saved by its heroic defenders when the twelve "powers" got together and sized up the situation. Whether their decision will be appealed from and hostilities renewed, is under consideration by the loser Of the fight.

D|ST|[[ERY FOR SURPLUS
 FRUIT
D. E. Dumas and John LayLooking Into The
 Proposition
(From Saturdays Daily.)

Providing that the internal reve- nue laws will permit, 1t is probable that Yavapai county within a reas- enable time will have full-hedged distillery in operation, with Oak creek as the center of manufacturing alcoholic beverages.
 That this project is receiving ear nest consideration was the statement made by former Supervisor D. E. Dumas and John Lay, of Cornville, who are in the city and engaged in making the initial move toward that purpose. They are eager to enter into the pursuit, and advance the logical argument that the loss of hundreds of tons of peaches and ap- ples each year for lack of a market, is the motive for utilizing the crops in the manufacture of brandy Other growers of such fruits will be forthcoming with their unused crops, and there is every indication that the industry will be made a profitable one
 For many years on Oak Creek Henry Schuerman has been engag- ed in making a high-class quality of wines from his grape farm, and which has proved remunerative for the surplus yield consumed. Mes SITS. Dumas and Lay will place the matter before the revenue officials at Washington in a shor: time, and if favorable action is authorized the distillery will be ready for the fall crops this year.

ROAD PLAN TO BE
 CARRIED OUT AT ONCE
(From Thursdays Daily)

That the plan of building the main highway from Prescott south through Kirkland and Thompson Valleys, via Hillside and Congress Junction, is to be carried out at once, was the state ment made Tuesday by Chairman Stephens of the Board of Supervis ors.
 The completion of the road through Copper Basin and Skull val ley has been accomplished, and at the present time a camp is main tained at the latter place and near the railroad station in Kirkland in working along the Rudy Wash. The grade will pass to the east bank of that strip, and the route will offer far better accommodations for trav- cling than have ever before prevailed. The wash will be crossed but once, and a bridge of submerged stone will be laid that firm foundation will be available. The new roadway will obviate a sandwash of over five feet deep for a distance of nearly one mile, which has practically made that route an abandoned one for many years. Kirkland valley will be open ed by the first of March, and before April l, Thompson valley will enjoy similar privileges in road communi- cation.
 The line from the foot of Copper Basin hill to Kiskland direct will not be repaired and will be abandoned. Road Superintendent Clark is dili- gently engaged in carrying out the new programme.
