NEGRO SLAYER BOUND OVER
Only Answer to Charge of Killing
Seven Persons Is Moan,

Julian Carlton, the negro servant at
the home Of Frank Lloyd Wright,
made no answer other than a moan
when he was arraigned in court at
Dodgeville charged with the murder
of seven persons. After a preliminary
examination he was bound over by
Justice T. H. Gray to the circuit
court.
Two witnesses were heard. They
were Herbert Fritz. a craftsman en-
ployed by Wright, and William Wes-
ton, carpenter, the only two of the
nine occupants of the Wright bunga-
low who escaped on the day the negro
set it afire with gasoline and assailed
them with an axe.

Death of Another Pioneer.

Last Monday night there passed away at the hospital in Kingman one of the most noble souls that ever inhabited earth, man whose memory will always bring recollecttons of self sacrifice to all who knew him in life. Thomas Gray passed over the Range to the Great Be- yond, and may we hope that the Good Angel will have recorded of him the ore set tha; maGie the name oe Zen Abou immortal---He loved his fellow man.
 Tom Gray came to Mohave county nearly forty years ago from his hon e town in St. Stephens, N. E, and remained many years, unti stress of circumstances took him to California, where he spent a few years, being recalled to Arizona by a dreadful accident that took away the sight of his only brother. Robert Gray. For more than four years with the tender solicitude of mother for her ailing babe Tom Gray watched over and cared for this brother Unable to discern lhe night from the day, his every wish was antici- pated and his every whim gratifed so far as it lay in the power of this selt- -sacIi- 6cing man to fulfill it Living out in the hills where neighbors were few and far between this man working by day, cooking the frug4l meals for the two, leaving water and necessaries where they coul be reached by the blind man and at night baking the bread and washing the clothes Every day during all the years Tom Gray toiIed on to earn the funds necessary to keep up the needs oi the household until at last nature re- hellcd and the years ot toll and forbaaranca proved too much and he was strick, mol tally i'll. All that could be done by a kindly neighbor was done to save him. but old age Che was over 70 years) and phy sical ailments caused his death.
 His funeral took place from the King man undertaking pa,lors last Wednes, ay afternoon, many of the old-timers that knew him SO well in life following the re- mains to the grave. Rev. w. C. Blakely one of the oldest of the old-tilners, preached the funeral sermon
 Everywhere known the death of Tom Gray will be sincerely mourned for the kindly deeds he performed and because of the void that he will leave in the heart of the poor brother who is left alone and SO terribly afflicted.

For years my digestion was so poor that l could only eat the lightest foods. l tried everything that I heard of to get relief, but not until about a year ago when saw Chamberlain's Tablets advertised and got a bottle of them, d,d l find the right treatment. I soon began to improve, and since taking a few bottles of them my digestion is fine. For sale by all dealers.
