PROHIBITION EMPTlEs JAIL,

1T has surprised even the strongest
advocates Of prohibition to see the ef-

crimes and misdemeanors in Greenlee
county" says the Clifton (Ariz.)
Journal.
For many years the courts of this
country have been occupied with
multiplicity of cases, mostly resulting
from booze, and the several justice
courts have been kept busy sentenc-
ing prisoners to Jail or fining them.
For years the jails have been crowd
ed to capacity and the fines have often
run close to 1000 in a single justice
court in one month. But conditions
have changed since the first of the
year. The jail has been empty at some
places good share Of the time; cases
have been few and far between, and

came to himself he might have
stanched his blood. His wound was
hardly bleeding now. It had already
died! Fatigue and thirst, fever would
finish him, not his hurt He was too
young to die
With great effort he raised himself
on his arm and scanned the desert
stretching on all sides like rosy sea.
Along the river bank the pale and deli

lay like blush veil.

far as his fading eyes could reach.
He sank back with sigh, not to rise
again, and closed his eyes and waited
Hc slept short, restless, feverish

but out of them, over and over again
came the picture of Julia Redmond,
snd she sang to him the song whose
words were a prayer for the safety
of loved one during the night.
From that romantic melody there
seemed to rise more solemn ones. He
heard the rolling of the organ in the
cathedral in his native town, for he
came from Rouen originally, where
there is one of the most beautiful
cathedrals in the world. The music
rolled and rolled and passed over the
deserts face. 1t seemed to lift his
spirit and to cradle 1t. Then he
breathed his prayers-they took form.
and in his sleep he repeated the Ave
Maria and the Paternoster, and the
words rolled and rolled over the
deserts face end the supplication
seemed to his feverish mind to mingle
with the stars.
A sort Of midnight dew fell upon
him: so at least he thought, and it
seemed to him a heavenly dew and to
cover him like a benignant rain. He
grew cooler. He prayed again, and
with his words there came to the
young man an ineffable sense of peace.
He pillowed his fading thoughts upon
it.; he pillowed his aching mind upon
it and his body, too, and the pain of
his wound and he thought aloud, with
only the night airs to hear him. in
broken sentences: 'If this is death it
is not so bad. One should rather be
afraid of life. This is not difficult, if
should ever get out of here l shall
not regret this night"
Toward morning he grew calmer, he
turned to speak to his little compan-
ion. In his troubled thoughts he had
forgotten Pitchoune

was no response. Then the soldier
listened in silence. 1t was absolutely
unbroken. Not even the call of

ena-nothing came to him but the in
articulate voice of the desert Great
and solemn awe crept up to him. crept
up to him like spirit and sat down
by his side. He felt his hands grow
cold and his feet grow cold. Now, un-
able to speak aloud, there passed
