military instructor.
There were IFS men at the drill last
Tuesday" said Gulley yesterday, and

standpoint, it is infinitely better that

thusiasm will be aroused and there will

TO protect Phoenix should it become
necessary. The police reserve is sworn
to home duty; it has no connection
whatever with state or federal military
organizations, nor will it be called into
service"
Gulley believes that the reserve serves
another purpose than merely for home
protection. 1T is instilling the pre-
paredness spirit in this section of the
country" he declared. The time is

He believes there should be but one
answer, and that is compulsory mill

pared rather than a few who might be
willing to serve their country at any
time.

militarism, but / do think we should

TOO MUCH WAR TALK;
NOCOURT IN NOCALEs
No Danger of Conflict with Mexico, De-
clares Judge Baker, Who Re-
turns From the South.

Owing to military conditions that pre-
vail in Nogales. it is practically i'm
possible to hold court and only tempo
rary matters are receiving attention,
according to Judge A. c. Baker, who
has just returned from the border city.
Judge Baker is one of the prosecut-
ing attorneys in the case of the of the
State vs. Wiley, Jones and Salazar,
which was set for last week, but con-
tinued until September. He stated yes
terday that under present conditions it
would be impossible to get jury; that
the farmers in that county would not
leave their homes unprotected, nor
could they sit in trial when their en-
tire thoughts were concentrated on but
one matter-war
The case. it will be recalled, has to do
with the killing of Mrs. Mary Walsh
Bates, wife of Captain Bates, a retired
naval officer, by deputy sheriffs and
member of the Tucson police depart
ment. The officers, in search of rob-
Der, fired into Captain Bates automo-
bile, instantly killing his wife, The
case was transferred from Pima to No.
gales, and County Attorney George Hill
Finger in prosecuting has been assisted
by Judge Baker and Judge John Fl.
Campbell. The defendants counsel are
Hon. Sam Pattee, Hon. John Hughes
and Judge Frank Duffey.
The situation that exists in Nogafes
governs the actions of the court and
conditions generally as shown in the
review given by Judge Baker.

lie noticed scarcity of fruit. The
many soldiers in the streets gave the
American side brisk, businesslike ap-

Build Milk Can Trolley.

Popular Science Monthly: For the
rapid and economic handling Of milk
a. western creamery has installed an
aerial tramway. 900 feet long, leading
from it's milking barns direct to the
refrigerating and bottling plants. The
milk travels over the top OF stables
en- route, and a complete trip of one
five gallon can on two wheeled car
rier takes but rs seconds. Formerly
this work was done by a driver with
team and wagon. The tramway has
taken their place.
There are always two cans in tran
sit at the same time. one coming in
full and one returning empty. The
attaching links are so spaced that
when the full can has reached the end
of it's trip at the bottling house. the
empty can has also reached it's desti-
nation at the milking barn and stops
at the proper place automatically. The
drag cable is driven by a reversible
set OF small drums having grooves to
receive the cable. Signals to start
are given from the barn by a magnetic
bell.
For dairies which handle large quan-
titles of milk and make express
shipments to large cities, this conveyor
is q great step in advance, since it
reduces the time required in handling
the milk.

LAST SHOT IN CIVIL WAR

Columbus Dispatch: A man is still
living in Columbus who claims to have
fired the last shot Of the war Of the
rebellion--David N. Osyor. He was a
member of Company F, Ninth Ohio
cavalry. On the morning of April IT.,
1865, that command was near Durham
Station, North Carolina. 1t was keep
| ing close watch on General Joe Wheel
| ers cavalry, which was on the oppo-
site side of an extensive swamp. Part
of the union cavalry was ordered to
ldismount and wade across the swamp
| to distract the confederates while
| the rest constructed a corduroy
bridge. They used their carbines so
vigorously that the confederates sur
lmfsed that a very considerable force
was coming at them and the road
builders got along fine with their
bridge.
! Near the other edge of the swamp
Osyor says a confederate bullet just
jclipped his sergeant's chevron and the
skin on his arm. Looking for the
source of the bullet he spied the long
barrel of gun and the gray legs Of q
lconfederate soldier in the forks of q
ltree in front of him, and he fred al
Them. He saw the legs withdrawn and
the owner of them crawl slowly away
Just then a flag of truce came ir
slsight and the union men ere ordered
to cease firing. The occurrence, Osyol
Isaid, did not impress him at the time
tbut that flag of truce was really the
lsign of the end of the rebellion, for the
general surrender came soon and tn,
troops were sent home.

Mr.. Stevenson came often of an after
noon to read the results of his morn
While we sat in a circle, listening in
appreciative silence, he nervously
paced the room, reading aloud in his
full, sonorous voice-a voice that al
ways seemed remarkable in so frail a
man-his face flushed, and his man
ner rather embarrassed, for, far from
being over-c confident about his work,
he always seemed to, feel sort Of
shy anxiety lest it should not be up
to the mark.
TIE invariably gave respectful at
tention and careful consideration to
the critism of the humblest Of his
hearers, but in the end clung with
Scotch persistency to his own opinion
if sure of it's justice. There was about
him little or nothing Of the arrogance
Of the successful writer, and it may be
that his openminded willingness to
hear and weigh the suggestions of
others was a strong factor in the
development of his powers. He was
not too proud to learn from the mean
