Tempe dmring the month of Marrh,

and to bee submitted to the Town
Council att it's next meeting, April

good behavior of the convicted
person.
One fine of $40 was worked out
by Frank Thomas, Indian, convict

charge. This was the second Of

his home near Tempe on farm,

which to pay fine and he was
given double time for assisting the
street cleaning gang.

The jungleI To most persons
these two words bring only one
connotation: scenes of dense under
brush, tropical trees with overhang-
ing limbs, semi-naked savages
crouched in waiting for the I'M
wary traveller, a lion or tiger at
hay and fighting valiantly against
hounds and the rifles of hunters.
But to one body Of men of which
little is known and to whom little
though is given those two words
bring an entirely different picture.
E"The Jungle" brings to the mind
Of the itinerant working man, the
t'fruit tramp" the wanderer, the
vagabond, the hobo, mental pic
ture of a quiet retreat by a clear
stream where he can cook meal,
wash his clothing and rest without
fear of being disturbed.
Probably few persons know that
Tempe has a Jungle" 1t is safe
to say that very few know just
where it is and what it represents
TO the floating male population gen
orally referred to as buns OF
hoboes. Temples "jungle" is jus
below the railway bridge over thu
Salt river and beside the tail race
from the Hayden mills that is use'
farther down the river for irri
cation purposes.
1t is plentifuliy supplied wit

County, a real dirt farmer, is to be
one of the principal speakers. An
other of the speakers is to be F. H.
Shoemaker of Wisconsin, said by
farmers in this district to be a
member of the Progressive Farmers
organization. 1t is understood that
Mr.. Shoemaker came here from
Minnesota, where he has been do
ing organization work for the Pro
gressive Farmers movement.
The activities are scheduled to
continue the entire day. The pro-
gram is to get under way at 1880
in the morning and to continue
until along in the late afternoon.
All are invited to come and bring
the children and basket lunches. No
admission will be charged and ad-
vertising for the picnic states that
it is mot a money-making propo-
sition."
G. F. Stewart, who recently
bought a farm two miles south of
Tempe, is named as one of the
committee in charge of arrange
ments. J. w. Jones, who lives north
of Mesa, is another named on the
committee, and a third is j. D.
Bethune, who lives near Phoenix.
F. H. Shoemaker is said to have
been a protege of the late Robert
NJ. LaFollette of Wisconsin. He is
credited with being an able and
speaker and large
crowds of farmers come to hear
him whenever he speaks.

grace, allowed to give residents an
opportunity to become accustomed
to the signs, is now about over"
Arrests Of persons exceeding the
15-mile limit while driving through
Tempe either way were not nunser-
Gus during the past month. Mar
shall Mcdonald explained this by
calling attention to the fact that
speed Emit signs have not yet been
installed at the entrances to the
town aad tast until this is done it
is hardly FAIR to arrest persons not
familiar with laws here for driving
more than Is miles an hour.

It was after his discharge from
| the army that he drifted into Ar.
IONA Snd later became sheriff OF
Tombstone when the town was on
the boom.
"The pay was good there and the
town was full of gamblers" the old
frontiersman reminisced.ssa Most Of
the gamblers were on the square.
It Was business proposition and
the fees the gamblers paid were
turned over to the towns schools
and kept them running until the
mines closed.
"Bat Materson was one of the
dealers square as they made them
and a fast man ON the draw. He
always let the other fellow draw first
and then killed him"
Many Of the men who were called
criminals in a sense were the cattle
rustlers, the colonel said.
"a lot Of them, thcugh," he con-
tinued, "were just young fellows
who stole cattle over IN Mexico to
sell on this side Of the border and
figured they were in legitimate
business.
eff they were cornered and had
to fight, they were at least square
about it, which is more than can be
said of the present time gangsters-"
