BOOTLECCER SLEUTHS
 COLLECT FROM YAVAPA|

Many of the counties of Arizona were so anxious to gather in the fes- tive bootlegger the past year or two that they employed the Thiel detective agency of Los Angeles to do the work. These counties have been mulcted by the agency in sums running into the thousands of dollars without getting any results. Yavapai county was sued by the agency on an account of over $2,0O0 and at the hearing of the cause a few days ago the county con fessed judgment for about $17O0. Mohave county has one of these bills hanging over from the old board a. mounting to $500 $700. The same agency is said to have been paid close to $10,00O for the arrest of. three or four men who could have been caught by the sheriff had he been given the right to select an unknown deputy.
 One of the features of the work of the Thiel agency here came out in the trial of a bootlegger. The detectives swore in court that they had brought booze and had given men and women the liquor to drink and had a general good time.

HELD FOR MURDER

Three Mexicans, Diego Ballesteros, Enrique Estrada and Filepe Cervan- tes, were held in the sum of $5,000 each for the murder of Horace liar rison, a watchman at Jerome. The murder was committed during the I. w. w. troubles of few months ago. This is one of the causes that will be tried under the old law, when mur- derers were considered a little bet ter than the common criminal and were entitled to all the privileges and immunities that the law allowed their order of society. A man who killed few beef cattle belonging to anoth- CT gentleman would be held to ans- wer with bail fixed from $10,OOO to $20,000, but the fellow who took hum. an life was in a class all by himself and was not required to give an un. reasonable bail.

 1 suppose the folks have wondered why l have not sent few souvenirs but it has been impossible to do so for everything must be censored and have been so busy from the second week I landed. I have hardly had time to turn around. Lucky 1 have been able to hold my health to be where I have been since I have been over here. will have the credit of being in four drives on my service record.
 We have been cited few times for our good work and it is not work that was done back in the S. o s., but right up at the front and most of the time under shell fire. I do not know how we all got through with so few casualties. have had the horse shoe with me so far. I have been caught in places I did not ever dream of coming out of.
 I have several shell holes around over those fronts I have been on which I will always love. You see the safest place in a barrage is a shell hole that has just exploded and the deeper the better. Some of them are 15 feet wide and 10 feet deep and shrapnel and rocks from other shells go over the top.
 It does not seem real to have such quietness in this country that has been nothing but a roar up to the time the armistice was signed. At Il a. m. the guns all stopped from putting over heavy barrage. Thank God it is all over but if it is not want to see the rest of it, as long as I can I am glad to know I have been in it.
 Am still going. We will soon be in Germany, I think. Glad you are having a good season for fat cattle It's what has been keeping us going and we have lived well.
 I certainly was glad to meet Bert aCoffey over here for he was the first boy from home I met. I have seer Jake Neal and the two Anderson boys since. I got letter from Melvin the other day telling me he was here and I hope can meet him over here for you do not know how I woulc like to see some of the boys.
 It is loyalty to do and die for ones comrades, one has only to be in one o1 these battles to see what man wil do for the other fellow. I one time breathed from the same gas masl with my comprade. It does not seen possible but it was done on the Marnt Front. We would hold our nose! and eyes shut, holding our breatl while the other breathed. We were lucky it was not mustard gas as we could not have survived.
 I must ring off for it is getting late. Would have written sooner but have been very busy, and writing accommodations were scarce This pa per is bum, also the pen It is like all Hun stuff you run into
