Three very small wires are tackled In

at the center. The run Is finished
with narrow silk or velvet ribbon, as

Beautiful, Intelligent and Tactful. This

Lie In North of ireland.

London-The house of commons
was diverted recently by a tilt be-
tween Violet Asquith. daughter of the
premier, and Lady Londonderry, who
is a rampant friend OF Ulster, and is
even credited by her enemies with be-
ing the real brains of the Ulster rebel
lion. Lloyd-George was speaking In
favor Of the governments home rule
policy, and the marchioness Of Lon
donderry was keeping up a running
fire OF comment calculated to show
that Lloyd-George was overdue in a
home for the criminally insane. The
marchioness didn't care who heard.
Miss Asquith. who naturally was for
the government, asked her can" the
chatter. Lady Londonderry put on the
loud pedal. Miss Asquith called ser
geantat-arms, or its English equiva-
lent.
Put the old bird outside" said she
in effect, she is disturbing my peace"
The sergeant-at-arms didn't know
what to do. He just couldn't throw
out the nobility, especially when the
nobility was feminine and more than
fifty, and yet he hated to disappoint
a lady. There is nothing in the bill of
rights or Magma Charta about what to
do when a marchioness turns loose the
forked lightning of her tongue. The
sergeant smiled sickly, looked respect
full and did nothing. Finally Miss
Asquith went home, leaving her adver-
sary triumphant in possession of the
field. 1t was an omen of larger vic
tory.

LALLY TO LEAVE MoRENcL.

Judge J. M. Lally announces this
week that he will leave Morenci about
April 1, 1915, for Shenandoah, low /,
there to engage in the clothing bust
ness, work with which the Judge
is through many years of experience
thoroughly familiar
Embarked upon a political career
which apparently promised many fair
results, this announcement comes as
surprise to Lally's hundreds of
friends and acquaintance, only few
of whom have known for several
months that the removal was conten1-
plated.
Judge Lally has been citizen of
Morenci for about ten years, coming
here from Los Angeles, where he was
employed as assistant manager of
large department store. Prior to
his residence at Los Angeles he was
engaged in the clothing business at
Fargo, North Dakota. During his
residence at Morenci, he has been
employed mainly in charge of the.
mems clothing department of the
Phelps-Dodge Mercantile company's
store. This is the work OF. which Mr.
Lally has made a specially, and one in
which he has gained an experience
of many years. This work was left
about two years ago, upon his receiv-
ing the appointment to his present
office, a work in which he has estab-
lished record which has rarely been
equalled, in activity, by his brother
judges in Arizona.
While gaining his present position
by appointment, Lally has gained
great strength with the people, as
was evidenced at the primary cleo
lions Of September last, when by an
al r,afrYc vote ho xuod' r,of11rn ad
by the people as their judge.
Lally Is an extensive owner Of
property, principally residences in the
Morenci section, and his departure for
Shenhandoah is arranged with the
disposition Of his holdings in view.
LaIly will leave Nofenci with the
best wishes of, hundreds of friends.

undertaking to which he is committed.

LET us GIVE THANKS.

The President has issued a pro-

States of America:
A Proclamation.
TT has long been the honored GUS
tom of our people to turn in the
fruitful autumn of the year in praise
and thanksgiving to Almighty God for
His many blessings and mercies to
us as a nation. The year that is
now drawing to a close since we last
observed our day of national thanks
giving has been, while year of discip-
line because of the mighty forces of
war and of change which have dis
turbed the world, also year of
special blessing for US.
TT has been youShsafed to Us to
remain at peace, with honor, and in
some part to succor the suffering and
supply the needs of those who are in
want We have been privileged by
our own peace and selfcontrol in
some degree to steady the counsels
and shape the hopes and purposes of
q day of fear and distress. Our peo-
pie have looked upon their own life
as a nation with deeper comprehen-
sion, fuller realization of their re-
sponsibility as well as of their bless
ings, and a keener sense of the moral
and practical significance of what
their part among the nations of the
world may come to be.
The hurtful effects of foreign war
in their own industrial and CONNER
cial affairs have made them feel the
more fully and see the more clearly
their mutual ineerdependence upon
one another, and has stirred them to
a helpful cooperation such as they
have seldom practiced before. They
have been quickened by great moral
stimulation. Their unmistakable ar
dor for peace, their earnest pity and
disinterested sympathy for those who
are suffering, their readiness to help
and to think of the needs of others,
has revealed them to them selves as
we'll as to the world.
Our crops will feed all who need
food the self-possession of our peo-
pie amidst the most serious anXieties
and difficulties, and the steadiness
and resourcefulness of our business
men will serve other nations as well
as our own.

High along the northern walls of
the Morenci canyon the men, now
numbering more than two hundred
and fifty are now rapidly placing. the
preliminary grades. In scenic phases
the coming road will far surpass that
section completed from Clifton. The
determination of the road administra-
ton is to finish this Morenci half by
January 1, 1915, and to that end is
putting to work larger forces daily.
At one point along the canyon, where
the road is surveyed through a
great projecting mass of solid stone.
heavy blasting will be necessary, and
arrangements are made for exploding
at this point, at noon tomorrow,
Saturday, one thousand pounds of
powder.

MURDERER OF MEXICAN
NOT YET APPREHENDED

Man or Men Who Stabbed to Death
Inoffensive Mexican Resident of
Town Are Still Unfound-Dead Man
Leaves Family.
The man or men who cruelty stab
bed to death the Mexican, Gregorio
Gutierrez, early in the evening of
Friday, November 6, so skillfully
managed the deed that as yet the Off
GELS have not succeeded in bringing
evidence against any of sufficient
strength to convict, or warrant the
holding of suspects in prison. Several
Mexicans of the town have been ar
rested, but without a single excep-
ton they were released after efforts
at gaining evidence proved without
results.
Gutierrez was killed with many
knife wounds at point near the
drug department of the P. D. M.
company In this building number
of men had been for several hours
practicing first aid exercises, and
upon leaving the house discovered
the wounded man lying a few steps
distant. The men endeavored to
revive the man, but without avail, as
he was struck over several portions
of the body with deep wounds,
number of which would have alone
proven fatal.
The dead man was one of the best
known Mexican citizens of Morenci,
having lived here for about twenty
years, during which time he had con-
Quoted his life in an upright manner.
His disposition was such that no
motive for the crime can be pro-
pounded. Robbery apparently was
not attempted, small amount of
money being found on the body. A
wife and several children survive
the murdered man.
