its appreciation of good thing by giving unanimous
endorsement to David n snellenburgs plan for a
sanitary market in King street That plan is possessed
OF such merit that it is winning friends daily both
within and without city It appeals particularly
TO those who are in the habit OF using the street mar
ket and who know from experience how deficient it is
in comfort convenience and sanitation.
notwithstanding Mr.. sneenburg is an exceedingly
busy man. he is deyoting much Of his time TO the
advancement Of his market proposition, He does it
because he feels that 1t will be beneficial to the COM
muniy. Since he began his campaign he has aroused
strong sentiment in favor Of such market The
action of Pomona Grange. which is countrywide
organization shows that sentiment is crysalizng.

HOGS KIDNAPPED
 BY FLYNN'S MULES
Mysterious Disappearance Solved When Team Is
 Found In Yards

Mike Flynn rancher, drove into Phoenix Monday morning, with two mules hitched to a wagon, in which were carefully placed two hogs, well dressed and ready for the market
 MT. Flynn drove up in front of To- cal store and went inside to negotiate 2 purchase or so While he was inside he was very busy and failed to keep an eye on his precious cargo.
 Upon his return to the front of the store he was horror stricken to per ceive a large aching void where for mcrly had stood his team and wagon. He naturally surmised that some one had got glimpse of his pork. and had taken to the high timber with the ami mals in tow.
 He started a search over the city. and finally being unsuccessful enlisted the services of the police. All efforts were unsuccessful. until late at night some one reported a derelict team in the vicinity of the Santa Fe yards. The main streets of the city had been thor ougnly combed, but no one had thought to look Tn the yards. The pork was in tact. and yesterday was delivered to it's intended destination.
