FALLS IN LOVE
 WITH HIS WIFE:
Tourist Quarrels with Wife
 Deserts Her--Cowboy Gu
 pid Quickly Restores Love

Last Monday a woman with her six year old son rode into Williams and up to the office of the Justi ce- of the peace To the Justice she told tale of woe. Her name was Lefler. She and her husband with their six year old son had been> touring from Oklahoma to Califor- nia. On the way between Flag staff and Williams they fell to, quarreling and upon arriving on the levee across Davenport lake, the angry husband stopped the machine and ordered his wife to dismount. She and her son obeyed. Lefler then drove on with the machin e. leaving wife and son to walk. Mrs. Lefler secured horses at the Rounse- vile ranch and rode on in to town
 One of the things that cowboy spirit will not stand for is the abuse of women. The moment the story became newsed abroad the cowboys and ex-cowboys about town became filled with a desire to have an in-- terview with the wayward husband.
 An effort was made at once to, locate MT. Lefler. A description of man and car was sent along the trail westward with the request that officers detain them.
 The local officers were relieved the next morning to find that Lefler and his machine were in Williams. The erring husband was immediately summoned before Justice Twitty. By this time the irate parent was no longer irate,. and, besides, he had heard more or less of the rumblings among the cowboys. The urwritten law of the mountains prescribed that such an offense as his should be punisheG by good horse whipping executedz in the country with the assistance of lariets and pine tree. Mr. Lefler's soul suddenly became compassionate and his heart swelled with renewed love for his wife. He was overjoyed at finding her agaln, and, with the tenderness of a young lover, caressed and fondled her. Mrs. Lefler's heart, too, over flowed with affection, and she no longer wanted her dearly beloved punished.
 But the complaint had been made and justice must have it's course. Lefler plead guilty on a charge of and was let off with aa fine of $50. This he gladly paid,, feeling that the punishment was very light for mistreatment of the best woman in all the world.
 And so they kissed and made up, and the Buick again buzzed merrily westward singing a song of paradise.

SCHOOLS CLOSE
 SUCCESSFUL YEAR
Class of Nine Graduate from Grammar-All Pass State Examinations.

Examinations.
 The Williams School closed last Friday night after a successful year. There were nine graduates from the grades, all of whom had successfully passed the examina- tions sent out by the state. The class essays were read to the teach CTS and the pines, last Thursday afternoon on the mountain east of town. The commencement exer- cises held Friday night were de- clared by many, to be the most successful ever held in the Will jams Schools.
 It is indeed a mark of credit that all of the graduating class should be able to pass the state examination and it is an especial mark of credit that the lowest average of any one of the entire class was eighty. This is a posi- tive proof of thorough training in the grades.
 The novel form adopted for rendering the class essays was commendible in d number of ways. For one thing it dispensed with the nervousness and worry usually accompanying the last few days in school when the class is expected to deliver it's essays to a public audience. It also left very pleasant me emory in the minds of all the members of the class.
 The commencement exercises were entirely successful. The program was good thruout and especially the address by Dr. R. H. Won Kleinsmid was worthy of remark. It was far out of the ordinary in the way of addresses usually given at grammar school commencements. The attention of the entire audience was held as tho by aspell, and all felt that they were handsomely repaid for the hour and a half spent listen ing to him.
 But what is even better than the successful graduation of this class from the grammar grades, with their most excellent commence ment exercises, is the promise that altho as per the class motto, they did sail out of the harbor into the sea, last Friday night, at least seven of the graduates will put into the harbor named High School" next fall and further prepare before finally launching for the long cruise on life's sea. Yet greater honors await this class in their accomplishments as Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors and finally Seniors in the high school. Would that the entire nine might graduate again four years from now, as high school seniors.

Snow June 4

Snow June 4
 This year seems determined to be record breaker for weather. Not only is remarkable for the amount of rainfall and the fact that rain has fallen regularly in what is SUD- posed to be the dry season, but it is remarkable for cold storms and snow. During May we experienced what some claimed to be a heavier snow than fell at any time during the winter. And now, on June 4, we experienced snow followed by 6. rather heavy frost. However the snow melted almost as fast as it felh and the frost did little damage.

SEATTLE, Wash, March 20.-The
arraignment of Wilhelm Mueller,
German consul at this port, and his
secretary Max Schulz, on charges of
violating a state conspiracy law, was
postponed Tuesday at the request Of
Mueller's counsel.
Mueller conferred with United
States District Attorney Allen today,
and is said to have presented his case
in full A careful investigation of the
actions of his subordinates was made
by Alfred H. Lundin, the county pros
ecutor, who laid the information
against the consul and his secretary,
charging them with inducing john
Murdoch, shipping clerk employed
by the Seattle Construction & Dry
Dock Company, to reveal his employ
ers' secrets. Lundin said he was con-
tent to stand on the records Of his
Office in the case, despite the formal
protes of THE German ambassador at
Washington that he had violated trea-
ty rights.

OPINION AS TO WHO

MAY HAVE BEEN EXPRESSED BY
Ex-Gov. o'NEAL BEFORE LEG
IsLATlVE PRo5ERS.

BIRMINGHAM. Ala, March 49,
Former Governor Emmett O'Neal, of
Alabama, was with the legislative
probing committee in executive ses-
sion this morning, the understanding
being that he would give his personal
opinion as to who got the money that
was stolen from the state convict de-
partment year before last by Theo
Lacey, clerk in the department, and
where the money or the greater por-
ton of it. In a public statement this
week former Gov. O'Neal said that he
had an opinion as to who got the $780,
900, but, inasmuch as one man was
in the penitentiary, another under
trial and others might be brought into
the matter, he did not deem it proper
to make a public statement on his
opinion thereto Several witnesses
made statements today in reference
to insurance matters. George W.
Beach, receiver of the Alabama Insur-
ance company, told of the receiver
ship of that concern and acuses lead

make a visit to the new Jail and in

more unsatisfactory than had been
reported to me. At the first obserya
ton it plain that the mortar is falling

Tag it an unsightly appearance. Some
of the brick work has fallen down OF

The morton seems to be of an in.

brick in the walls now standing can
be pushed aside, and | believe it pos

the wall with kitchen fork. | do
not know the building committee and
take this means to call their atten-

are men of affairs and have plenty of
business of their own to look after,
but l am sure upon their attention
being called to the jail work they
will promptly have it remedied.
The Jail just torn down was com,
paratively new and cost large sum
of money. But it was never good
job either in point of work or arChi-
lecture. Now we do not want to
make another mistake this time
do not desire to cast reflections upon
any one, either the committee or the

matter that has been the subject

The information against the Ger

Consul Muller denied that he had
any agreement with Murdoch or the
detective to purchase anything, nor
did he arrange to have them steal pa
pers from the construction company.
He declared that Tarnisasky ap-
preached him with statement that
he had information that submarines
we're being built here for the British
navy, but that he had dealt with the
detective only so far as was necessa-
ry to determine whether there was
any truth in the report. The consul
expressed confidence in prompt dis
