The city council at a meeting held
on the evening of Thursday, Decem-
Der IL, elected w. M. Goolsby to the
position of night Marshal, the new
officer there taking the place of Thos.
McColloch, who has been appointed
by Sheriff-elect Jas. Cash as chief
deputy of the Clifton precinct.
Goolsby Immediately before his selec
ton resigned from the position as
city councilman that he might legally
receive the office of marshal at the
hands of brother councilmen. For
number of weeks the city council
has been endeavoring to reach a decis-
ion regarding man to take the place
of McColloch, and held meetings for
the purpose, but all to no avail until
the deadlock was solved by Goolsby

and take the position. At the first
suggestion of Goolsby to this effect,
his brothers in the council refused to
accept his resignation, but apparently
due consideration convinced them of
the advisability of Goolsby's orfer.
Four councilmen voted for Goolsby
at the Thursday evening meeting,
one voted for w. H. Keppler, and
one voted for Holland Bass, at pres
ent deputy under Sheriff Patty at
Metcalf. The new marshal will begin
MS duties on the night of Sunday,
December 20, Officer McColIoch hav-
ng requested the council to accept
lis resignation at that time.
Goolsby has been in this section for
eighteen years, having worked at Mo-
enci for ten years before coming

EXECUTIONS A RE
STAYED At LAST
Minute
On Eve of Issuing His Proclamation
Governor Hunt Grants Reprieves
to Four Condemned Men and Com
mutes Other TWO.

PHOENIX, Dec. 16.-At almost the
last minute before issuing the proc
lamation that will take from him
the power to commute or reprieve
without having first submitted the
cases to the board of pardons and re
prieves, Gov. Hunt yesterday COM
muted the sentences of two of the
condemned men at Florence to life
imprisonment, and granted re-
prieve of four months to the other
four. The six men were to have
hung Dec. 10.
Communication of the sentences of
William Campbell and Charles Schaf-
fer was made on the ground that their
trials in the lower courts were con-
Quoted with undue haste and that
material evidence which would have
resulted in lighter penalty was
ruled out. Reprieves were granted
Eduardo Perez, N. B. Chavez, Fran
cisco Rodriguez to allow the attorney
general time to review their cases.
The case of Miguel Peralta was re-
ferred to the supreme court
In his letter to the attorney general
asking him to review the cases, the
governor requests that his opinion
state whether there exists any reas-
enable doubt as to the guilt of the
condemned men, and also if there
are any palliative circumstances
which would command a modification
of the death penalty. 1T is my fur
ther request says the governor, that
special consideration be given to a
pertinent and important phase of the |
three capital cases above mentioned
namely the fact that in every instance
he defendant, Immediately prior to
he commission of his crime, had in
lulged either moderately or excessive
y in alcoholic beverages"
On the assumption that the legal
tatus of drunken man has been de-
med by eminent jurists, the governor
equests the attorney general to in
lude "all available citations of opin-
ons rendered and precedents estab-
lshed by competent judicial officers

just decision may be reached affect

ases are herewith presented to your

Boy Bugler, With His Arm Gone,
Blows Calls Until Laid Low
By More Shots In Terrific Fight

FOLKESTONE, Eng, Sept. 28.-This
old coast town is witnessing sights
these days that it never saw before.
Daily, streams Of wounded British SOL
diers and penniless Belgian refugees
pass through here on their way to the
hospitals and the charitable institu-
tons Of London.
Stories are now coming in fast, toll
by wounded soldiers who have return
ed to England direct from the battle
fields. Many of these gallant fellows
have lost arms and legs, but all they
desire is to get well quickly to be at
the Germans once again and pay off
the scores which they are burning to
avenge.
An Irish bugler boy of 16. who's
name is not given, stands out as he
70, even among the many brave men
who are down for the moment. He is

FINE CATHEDRAL IS NOT

Hak of German VandalS Is
Not Complete

London, Sept ga Reuter- dispatch
from Paris says Thiebault Sisson, art
critic Of the Temps. has visited the
cathedral at Rheims and gives the fol-
lowing description Of the structus as
u now stands.
To Judge of the damage it was nee
essary to ascend the towers. There ]
saw the bells completely melted. The
root OF the lead plates had disappea--
ed; the magnificent campanile of wood
ard lead erected at the crossing of the
cansepts and apse had vanished. The
vaults are standing and the nave was
not touched by fire"
The writer thinks, however, that the
autunm rains and frost viii play havoc
with the stones and that measures
must be taken inediately to strengthen
the walls He concludes by quoting
the words of the German Emperor S
son to the Rheims municipality few
days before the bomhardment:
The best proof Of my desire not q
touch the building is that am anxious
to put the wounded inside"

KAISER HAS LUCKY
GLOVER OF SEDAN

Copenhagen, Sept. 2S.-A four-leafed
clover, pressed, dried, and scented-the
same one carried by his grandfather A
years ago-is tucked away in a pocket
of Kaiser Wilhelms gray greatcoat
these days.
The little daughter of an old court
official, Louis Schneider, plucked this
leaf in the ropal park, Kabelsburg, in
July, 1870. After the German victory
at Sedan the child presented the green
spray to old King William.
Months later the Schneider child AMI
her father were summoned before the
emperor.
Here is your little piece of clover,
said the monarch. ut has won me VIZ
tory. I give it back to you, my child
and hope it will bring you luck too"
The kaiser then cut off one of his
white curls and handed it with tn
clover to the girl.
Years later Miss Schneider present
ed the talisman to the daughter of tn :
Countess Debna as a baptismal gilt.
When the war broke out in August last
the countess, through the empress, pre-
sented the clover to the kaiser.

said:
Marching at the rate of from 20 u

"Gallopers informed US that the en-

This was followed by a dreadful

this we promptly replied, and did good
execution among the large masses o.

chance, we worked the guns for all We
were worth, altering the fuses and

retired to get more favorable posi-

Our drivers failed to bring back al

Gordons and Middlesex fought like
lions. They were in the sheit r
trenches on our left. At one time tha

Prussian infantry being driven off.
There was terrible slaughter on
both sides. The dead and dying lay in
