AND MR. M'KEE HAS NOT BEEN
 SEEN SINCE
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

No. The city police force was not locked in jail, with their guns conis- cated by playful young ruffian. The version of the story has been plen- tifully retailed around town, but it lacks the distinction of full accuracy. It happened different As follows:
 When complaint was made to Night Policemen McDermid and Twamley by Messrs. Earl Gilbert and Mike Seidel that Cholly Mckee was acting up, the officers concluded to incarccrate MT. Mckee. They found him in a Granite street noodle joint and escorted him to the county jail. In the sheriff's office, Twamley step- ped to the elevator to summon the night jailor, while McDermid in- structed Mack to shell out his valu- ables. Mack started to comply, and the officer turned his eyes away for a second. In a flash, Cholly bolted through the door and slammed it so hard it jammed. The cops were right after him, but the delay caused by bending the door out of the way was sufficient for Mckee to make his get away
 T didn't expect party accused of such petty misdemeanor would act so desperate" McDermid said rue fully to a reporter.
 McKee's mother told the officers the young man was not at home. It is believed he has gone to Phoenix. It is understood that unless he returns and gets numerous, the charge will not be pressed.

VERDE VAN|SHES FROM THE MAP
 OF YAVAPAI
(From Tuesdays Daily)

"Clemenceau" has been officially substituted by the postofice depart ment as the future name of Verde. This information was received yes terday, and henceforth mail to be ad- dressed to that smelter center will be addressed accordingly.
 The change will be welcomed as re- lieving that city of confusion, due to the prevalence of "Verdes" i'll that region. For insance, there is the United Verde, the United Verde EX- tension, Camp Verde, Middle and Upper Verde, in addition to score of mining companies with Verde af- fixed in one way or another, and giv- ing to the scene a conflicting inter pretation so far as the public is con- cerned.
 It might be well that since the postoffce department has started to chop down the Verde tree to switch over to Prescott and hack some of these postofices to pieces likewise, as there are at present in the nation some thirteen Prescotts to which mail may be rightfully addressed.
