DROUGH IS BROKEN
BY HEAVY RAIN
From Wednesdays Daily

(From Wednesdays Daily
Telephone and Geographic reports
received yesterday afternoon up to
s o'clock would indicate that the
drouth in this county has been
broken, and heavy rains were re-
ported within a circuit of thirty
five miles.
In this city, the rainfall was the
heaviest since the Summer rains OF
last year, and flooded streets were
again in evidence.
From Kirkland, Skull valley and
adjacent localities came good re-
ports, and the intervening country
west of this city was also drenched.
Arrivals from Jerome yesterday aft
ernoon at 5 o'clock stated rain was
noticeable all the way, which ex-
tended north to Clarkdale and en-
braced the Big Chino valley and Up
per Verde ranges. At Jerome juno
ton the. heaviest fall in a year was
recorded.
The s. F.. P. & P. offices in this
city reported that fine rains were
taking place along the P. & K.
line to as far as Mayer, and 1t was
believed extended east. north and
south of that point. No news has
been received from Williamson val
ley and the country northwest ot
this city, but indications were notice
able of big storms in that region.
That the storm is general through
out the central and northern portions
of the State was learned last night,
when Phoenix reported soaking rains
that commenced to fall at a o'clock
in the afternoon, which included
Mesa and Tempe. The telephone
lines east of this city went out dur
ing the afternoon but kilograms gave
the good news of big precipitation
going on all along the line OF the
railroad. The drouth has been
broken also in the Hillside country,
while from the mountains to- the
south of this city and as far as
Castle Hot Springs, returns were re-
ceived of the greatest rainfall IN
recent years.

DIR. FISHER AFTER
THE PRAIRIE DOG
CFrom Thursdays Daiiy.)

DR.. A. K. Fisher, in charge OF
economic Investigations, Biological
Survey, Department of Agriculture,
Washington, D. C., is a visitor IN
Prescott, for the third time.
For nearly a year the Chamber OF
Commerce has been in correspond
ence with DR.. Fisher with view OF
securing demonstrations, showing
the best methods OF combating
prairie dog depredations.
After visits to several farms ~
Lonesome valley yesterday, Dr.
Fisher concluded to send an expert
to Prescott, either late in the Fall
or in February, when green iced
is scarce and the poisoned grain IS
most effective.
With proper cooperation, Dr.
| Fisher thinks that not only the
farmers but the cattlemen in Yavapai
county will be greatly benefited by
these demonstrations He is certain
that they can so control this evil,
that crops and forage will be won-ler-
fully increased.
The parties carrying on the CAM
paign in the Pike and Cochetopa
forests of Colorado and the Coco
nino forest, in this State, treated an
area including over 100000 acres
of prairie-dog land Over this vast
area from ninety-five to ninety-eight
per cent of the animals have been
destroyed.
| DR.. Fisher has no hesitation in
saying that, if the interested citizens
OF Yavapai county will take 4
proper and concerted interest at the
time of the proposed demonstration.
equally good results can be obtained
here.
1t must be remembered that these
rodents destroy a vast amount CT
forage. which, if saved, could be
used for the production of beef and
mutton. In many cases, the prairie
dogs permanently injure the range
by eating the roots of plants which
bind the soil and prevent erosion
In many localities, the destruction
of plant life has been caused by ex-
tensive washing away OF the soil
, after the Summer rains.
After a brief visit in Phoenix,
: during which he will investigate
, rodent depredations in the Salt River
, valley, in cooperation with the Rec
Iamation Service, DR.. Fisher will
proceed to California, to supervise
= the determination OF ground spur
/, rels in several of the national forests
> in connection with the eradication Of
bubonic plague. He will return to
= Washington during the latter part
: of August.

BEAR TURNS OUT TO
BE ONLY A LOBO WOLF
From Wednesdays Daily.)

The big cinnamon bear that has
terrorized the miners and other resi-
dents of the Little Copper creek
country to the south of this city
for the past two weeks has vanished
into the dim distance and now
huge lobo wolf, in reality, takes his
place.
The discovery was made by Chas,
]. McNulty last Sunday evening
while the latter was sitting in front
of his cabin on Big Copper creek.
He saw the intruder approach with
in 100 yards. Mr.. McNulty states
the wolf was of immense size, and
uttering a howl, passed down a
gulch and in a few seconds was out
of sight
Contrary to reports made by a
dozen miners OF that field, it is not
believed a bear would have the
audacity to range in that section
where there is no food suitable for
him. and furthermore, the fertile
imagination OF the terror-stricker
was magnified to that extent thai
piteous means heard at all hour:
of the night were interpreted a. o
forebodings of the awful fate tina
faced all. All camps had beer
equipped with plenty of ammunition
and improved rifles to await tn
terrific combat between man AM

SAY THEY KILLED
TWELVE BAD, WILD DOGS

GLOBE, July 16.-Wild dogs,
long-toothed and bloodthirsty, shaggy
haired and gore craving imperil the
lives of residents of the Globe-Miami
district. At least that is the EARNING
brought back to this city by four
we'll known young men after day
in the hills after doves and rabbits.
For instead fbagging game to de-
light the palate, the hunters helped
blot out a menace to humanity, they
killed twelve bowling, biting, man
eating dogs.
The members of the party were:
Charles Brows, w. NJ. Jones, Harry
Farnham and NJ. A. McClain.
The men had tramped the hills
all day with indifferent luck. Late
in the afternoon they travelled into
the mountains outside of Miami when
their attention was drawn by the
maniacal performance of a beast
which was bearing down upon them
Four guns were leveled and four
charges fired simultaneously. The
animal dropped and an examination
revealed a wild dog.
Later more dogs came and The
members of the party were KEEP
busy killing them They tremble Il
think of what might have happened
if they had run out OF shells. Thu
dogs fought the hunters until twelv,
of the pack had fallen and then TIL
remainder fled.
The hunters have been telling tn
thrilling story to their friends. The
discovered that some were skeptica
so they have made up their min
to go out and get one of tn
carcasses. They mean to prove tina
they did not shoot jack rabbit

GETS LAND TRACT
FOR DEATH OF HUSBAND
From Wednesdays Daily


Mrs. Synthia Murphy is now in
legal possession of tract of eighty
two acres of desirable farming land
in Lower Verde valley, receiving the
sheriffs deed to it yesterday.
Associated with this transaction IS
a suit for 5000 damages instituted
last wear by the woman for the muir
der of her husband, Lee Murphy. by
A. P. Rhode, the latter being found
guilty and sentenced to serve fifteen
wears in the State penitentiary.
Mr.. Murphy was shot down on the
ranch of Rhode over two years ago,
and so wanton was the crime, that
the civil action followed and the
widow received judgment, which has
been satisfied by her acquiring the
property that Rhode owned, and
which was being jointly cultivated
by the two men who were brothers
in-law.
With the land is a valuable water
right of a three-sixteenths interes
in the Diamond s. irrigating ditch
Rhode is still confined in the peni
tertiary, and although he is reputeC
to have wealthy relatives residing
in New Mexico, no effort whateve
was made by them to disturb Mrs
Murphy in securing legal possession
of the land that led to the killing
of her husband.

MEXICAN OPENED
DOOR, SAVING MANS LIFE

MIAMI, Ariz., July l5.-W. P.
Bright, the operator who was badly
burned in the Gem theater fire Fri
day night is getting along as we'll
as could be expected. Although he
was injured worse than at first re-
ported, Mr.. Bright's hands are so
badly burned that he is unable to
use them for any purpose HIS
face is also badly burned but not so
badly as his arms and hands.
Mr.. Bright stated last night that
a Mexican who claimed to have
opened the door for him had been
interviewed but could not tell why
he opened the door OF the operating
room thereby saving Mr.. Bright's
life. The Mexican stated that he
noticed that there was fire in the
operating room and that he pushed
the door open to see what was going
on. Mr.. Bright feels very glad that
the Mexican's curiosity got the bet
ter of him. He had tried several
times to reach the door of the room
but was unable to do so on account
of the flames which were between
him and the door. In another
minute he would have persisted.
