OZias had always said to her. q will either pay you wages or l will give you q home for the rest of your fife After the advent of Mrs. Ozias she claims things were vastly different. She said that in 1914. the defendant went to Chicago and some weeks after his return in December a woman came to the house and said she married the defendant in Chicago and no longer required the plaintiffs services. Mrs. Bates went to OZias at once and all she met in reply to her queries was. my wife is mistress here and we shall abide by what she says
 Pay me for my services that might have something with which to go,'' the plaintiff is alleged to have re- piled.
 You take nothing and go." said Mrs Ozias according to the complaint

MOOSE PLAY |S

Local Players Do Them selves Great Credit in Are You a Moose?" at the Elks' Theater Last Night-Play a Scream

ScenicaEy perfect, the Moose play at | the Elks last night, reflected immense credit on an aggregation Of local play CTS. who displayed talent far out of the ordinary. Are You a Moose" farce comedy, not in any way con nected with the old wheeze of similar name, was the vehicle. It was very snaprilv presented.
 A great deal of hard work was rep resented in the play which will be re- peated this evening. But it amply ex- hibited the excellence of the carefully chosen cast. under the direction of the veteran actor Mr. Frederick Wilson.
 He had rewritten the play and had adapted il to the l.. Q. o. M. This l production is under the auspices of Phoenix Ledge No. 79S Loyal Order of | Moose.

There was not a hitch in the performance. which hugely pleased q fair sized audience.
 Tonight of course will be the chief performance of the week end. The play will be presented again just as it was last evening. with the added snoothness of q second presentation

She made out the check for g. and he signed it.
 She told me she needed a couple of dollars and I said if had the money I would give you rather than make out so small check met her again Tuesday and asked her if she had cashed the check and she said No l am going to keep it for a souvenir" testified Morgan.
 l "I went to Globe for few days 1 and the first time I saw her she said she had something important 1 to tell me. The next day I learned what it was. She told she had re- ceived a letter from Mir. Hammer who had written for s5O00 in re- turn for which he would deed her a ranch in Alhambra. She said Mir McClung of the Phoenix National Rank had loaned her $3,OO0 on hei diamonds and that she had raised my two dollar check to meet tho difference"

The state then rested.


 Mrs. Hammer caused a distinct sensation when she took the stand n her own behalf and testified that the s2,ooO was gift from her sweetheart"
 When he first proposed I said no because l was afraid of men but he told me all men were not alike. Later did not see him for a week because l had out of town of friends here that I had to entertain and it was because of jealousy that he re- mained away. 1 did not jump at the chance of marrying him but when saw him again I agreed to to be his wife. He took me to the theater with his daughter Hazel because he said he wanted us to become ac- .quainted and to be good friends. He devoted so much time to me that l argued with him about it but he said he had nothing to do but give me q good time,' she said coquet- tishly.
 1 He did not want me to worry about my bills and before he went up to Globe he gave me s2,000. l hesi- tated to take it but he said 'dearie I'd do anything for you and put his arms around me and his head against my shoulder and said he was per fectly satisfied"
 The case was continued until nine thirty o'clock this morning when the state will cross question the de- fendant.
 For a time it appeared as if there would be some difficulty in securing a jury It looked as if the men ol Arizona had forgotten that they hat voted for the women equal rights and they frankly admitted that i the defendant were q woman it re quired a greater degree of evidenc, than if the defendant were man J.

President Wilson

The Democratic party goes be-
fore the American people with a
candidate whose wisdom and ability
in a period of unparalleled storm and
stress entitled him to support in the
name of patriotism which dwarfs
all narrow partisanship. His record
of achievement has won the applause
of his friends, the admiration of his
political foes, and the gratitude OF
the nation at large.
He has given the country a cur
rency system which on the eve OF
universal upheval enabled finance
and industry to stand unshaken.
What the conditions would have
been under Republican rule may
easily be imagined by recalling the
disaster of 1907. He has proved
himself better pilot in the storm
than the Republicans in and era OF
Meade County news., 1916-06-29

and inspiring vision of the moral
grandeur of the nation, jealous of
its honor, but devoted to the inter-
ests of mankind.
In the highest sense he is the en-
bodiment of splendid Americanism
The best traditions of the republic
are wrought into the very fiber of
his being. He loves peace well
enough to fight for it, if need be.
He has made it doubly clear to all
nations of the New and the Old
World that the United States covets
nothing which Is not legitimately
its own. In trying ordeals he has
shown that the American people ask
nothing and concede nothing, ex-
cept to work out their own destiny
under the free institutions which
are their peculiar heritage,
With it all, the candidate of the
Democratic party is no visionary,
cropping in cloudland. He is a-stir
in world of realities. He has tsk-
en- measures which insure the safety
oe his scountry. If, out of this welter
of war, this riot of mad passions,
should come menace to the liberty,
peace, and prosperity we enjoy, the
forces he has marshalled with an
unvauntlng but determined efficiency
will be ready at hand, waiting only
to be quickened into action by the
word of command.
Strong, alert, tried and approved
by experience, he has won the con-
fidence of the people, and this will
be their verdict at the polls.
