wv woman asked after going
the rounds in a department
store, and coming back to the place Of
beginning be a sensible gift for a
girl?"
Yes. No girl ever kept diary with
out gaining good results from it.
She begins it with vow to post the
days entries faithfully, and the story
of the first day is so long she regrets
the pages hold so little. The entries
shorten. and there comes a time when
she makes up week at a time. Some
days there appears only this entry:
1T is raining. Life is so sad!'
Other days she confides in the pages
of her diary hopes, nonsense, triumphs,
disappointments, secrets, that. if she
hadn't this faithful little conhdant, she
might be tempted to whisper into the
wrong pair of ears.
1t becomes an outlet for her heart
and mind, and much that she writes in
it is such folly that it teaches her when
she rereads, as woman grown, les
son she can learn from no other book.
She is confronted in her own hand
writing with proof OF her own mex
perience and folly. She can not be
harsh with the younger generation
around her, for there arises out of the
yellow pages Of her diary the rebuking
ghost of her own youth
She is told in her own writing that
she also was once foolish and there is
nothing so wholesome for those who
are growing wise with years as to learn
of past folly. 1t robs them of AFRO
gance. 1t makes them humble 1t is a
lesson in patience and d sermon on

It gives them an understanding of the
heart of the young that the years had

ment on their juniors.

reason in her disikes aud extravagant

He crossed partially to the door and
then becSOned the Respondent captain to

finally, and was gone.
Angrily Sartoris turned upon the jockey.
what do you mean by bursting into
my rooms like this?" he said
The answer of the jockey was direct
and to the point.

fist in the others face.

Sartoris in apparent disgust.

PULLS THE STRING
 AND SEES THE BADGER
(From Fridays Daily.)

Lester Cuneo, one of the Selig Polyscope players is versatile young gentleman, but none of his many friends knew he had bent toward natural history until last Wednesday evening.
 On the occasion named the hand some young actor decided he would abandon all frivolous pursuits, for sake the fieshpots of Egypt and be- come a student of animal life. Such a laudable ambition was encouraged by a number of congenial spirits and the man who makes the Selig pictures infamous started his studies with the badger-an untamed beast of the wilds whose habits could not be detailed in a good, family news paper
 His tutors secured the badger and then some one suggested that to make the lesson effective, and one never to be forgotten, that 1t be pitted against a ferocious dog. No sooner said than done The scene was arranged and everything was gotten in readiness for the sansuin- ary conflict. Excitement ran high, bets were made and the rapidity with which money changed hands brought back the days when every thing was wide open in Prescott.
 The badger was kept in a closed box and Cuneo was permitted to hold the string, the door of the box to be opened when the word was given. And it may be remarked that although he is a man of cour- age he believes it is better to be safe than sorry and accordingly had on knee-high leather boots so that the fierce quadraped would be dis appointed if it got any foolish biting notions in its head.
 And Lester pulled the string.
 What more need be said? The story is as complete as that of the man who went into the cellar with lighted candle to find the gas leak. He found it.
 And Cuneo saw the badger.
 As intimated before, Cuneo is a man of courage. If you have any doubts on the subject just mention the word badger" to him and see what happens.
 Incidentally if any person resid- ing in Arizona has anything new relating to the fauna of the State, kindly communicate with Lester H. Cuneo, special representative for the Ernest Seton Thompson-Audubon Society.

OCTOGENARIAN IS AS

 own hands and toll and without the
 assistance of any one in throwing
 single shovel of dirt out of the

 last summer, were some of the re- markable phases of the long life of
 Fred R. Stees, of Lonesome Valley that were revived Monday afternoou when he appeared before Commiss- toner Moore to receive his patent for a homestead from the govern ment
 This octogenarian has been locat- ed in the above section for the past six years, and in that time he has fulfilled to the letter all the rigid requirements in land occupation ex- acted by the authorities He has "builded wisely and we'll" and the fruits of his labors are reflected in as fine a home and as good piece of land as in other localities where the country is more attractive and where younger people have strug- gled industriously and fruitlessly.

He is imbued with an in dependence that sets aside any in- timation that comes forward from reighbors to pull him out" of a hole when the work becomes too burdensome. Every inch of the ground that has been titled has been his own handiwork, and in building the residence, the barn or other structures the same course has been followed out
 In perusing his first patent title document Monday, this venerable citizen seemed to cherish the author ity granted him, with that e1ation of a miner in striking a fat "glory hole" of riches. As he meandered down the street to return home he stated that he will clip off a cen tury, and by that time there will be for relatives and the law yers to get busy over.

MORRISON IS FREED

On Advice of District Attorney, Judge McLane Discharged Slayer Of <[

From Thursdays Daily.)

animation was in consequence, yer. brief
 Katie Morrison, the H-year- girl who was the innocent and un witting cause of the killing bore ul bravely for a time when telling o the assault made upon her by tho dead man but the strain was toe great and she told the remainder of the story between sobs. Her evidence was corroborated by her mother and MT. and Mrs. Williams with whom she made her home in Congress Junction while employed at the telephone office as central girl.
 Morrison told of returning home from Phoenix, hearing the story of the assault upon the girl and the ef- feet it produced upon him and the events of the day that had such a tragic ending.
 "Why did you shoot Zieger?" ask ed Attorney Mrrison of Morrison.
 Because I thought he would shoot me I knew he was a man without fear and was a desperate man. was prepared to protect my family as am the only support they have and the honor of my daughter. l knew Zieger had killed men and had beaten up others who did not agree with him"
 "Was there any other reason"
 "Yes, I thought a man who had assaulted my little girl should have known better than to have come around when he must have known the frame of mind I was in after hearing her story, and his coming was evidence that he was looking for trouble"
 That is alp said Attorney Morri- son and the Prosecuting Attorney forebore cross-examination.
 Mrs. Zieger and MT. Zink were recalled but their evidence only sub-stantiated details of the testi- mony the Morrison girl had given. In fact the evidence by the girl was fully and completely corroborated and in not one instance was her story impeached by any of the wit nesses.
 Mrs. Zieger was excused from the courtroom and then came the speech of the District Attorney and the end of the case.

JUDGES TO BE
 TIMED BY CLOCK

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-While it has not yet been determined just how much work a judge is expect ed to do to earn his salary, plans are now under way here to find out just how much work they do ac- complish, and for the first time in
 the history of the courts the mem bers of the judiciary are soon to be confronted with something very like a timeclock. While matters have not yet come to such a point that judges will be expected to punch such a clock like any employe arrangements have been made by which tabs will be kept on their work in a manner just as strict The clerks of the trial parts of the Su- preme Court have been furnished with special charts on which they will keep a record of all the work performed by each judge. Lawyers have openly charged that certain  judges "loafed" and that they would hear many more cases if they work ed as much as the judges in other counties. The New York judges, however, have always had defenders, who contended that more work is performed by individual judges in New York county than anywhere else in the state. While the keeping of the record is done through an order made by the Supreme Court judges themselves, it is done at the suggestion of the State Bar Associ- ation which passed a resolution to that effect at its last session. Among other things the record will show the number of cases heard by each
 judge, the successful litigant, the number of disagreements, defaults, dismissals, and discontinuances, amount of the verdict and the rum Der of opinions written by the judge.

DOCTOR WALLACE RE-
 COMMENDED BY CLUBS
(From Fridays Daf1y.)

An important action was taken by the several woman's clubs and organizations of Phoenix and vicin- ity at mass meeting held at the Woman's club Tuesday, says the Gazette, when they indorsed Dr Agnes Mckee Wallace of Prescott for resident physician at the Indus trial school at Fort Grant.
 A motion was made to this effect immediately following the days pro- gram, at which Mrs. B. A. Fowler as president of the entertaining club introduced Mrs. Virgil Partch.
 Mrs. Partch prefaced the offering of the resolution by a short talk, in which she urged the need of a wo- mans influence among the children at the Industrial school
 The resolution as offered reads as follows:
 Resolved, that we, the representa- tives of the various clubs and wo- mans organizations of Phoenix and vicinity, petition the honorable leg islature that it add to the expenses of the Industrial school a sum suf- fcient to maintain a resident phy- sician at Fort Grant, and further more, we would recommend thatt that physician be Dr. Agnes Mckee Wallace"
 The resolution was placed in the form of a motion. It was immedi- ately seconded and placed before the club for approval It was carried by a majority.
 Dr. Wallace then made a few re- marks, thanking the club for their interest, and declaring that she would accept the office if it is offer ed her.
 This is a matter which many of the women have been working for for some time since it has beer re cognized that the children at the Industrial school need the care and sympathy of woman, which privi- lege they have been denied thus far in Arizona
