zona in lull of cowboys. Sumo of them
are outlaws of the worst description
During the mouth of Juno litst the
president of the United States issued
i proclamation calling upon certain
awless persons in tno territory of
Arizona to disperse and threatening to
call the military power of the govern
ment into requisition to aid the loual
authorities iu the maintenance of law
and o dor. The necessity for the is-
luanoo of such a proclamation had
is origin in the depredations of a cor-
; ain gang of outlaws under the leader
ship of the famous cowboy familiarly
iuownin the territory as''Curly Bill , "
, mt whoao real immo was William
( i. Oroscion. These desperate char-
alters had taken up their abode in the
San Simon Valley , a beautiful section
of country in the extreme southern
part of the territory , iu what la now a
portion of Oochisa county. These
rtoaporiidous built themselves houses
nud claimed to bo "ranchers" or cat
tle men. At the northern end of the
Sxn Simon Valley is thu town of Cali
fornia city , a place of several hundred
population. It contained throe stores ,
u greater number of saloons , and some
honest and respectable oititens , The
town , however , was often in the hands
of the cowboys , and woo to a "tender
foot" a term applied to all new com
ers in border towns who happened iu
California Oity on such occasions.
was a common things lor i < ht or
ten of these cutthroats to ride into
California City , enter a saloon , present
sent a pistol to the barkeeper's head ,
and demand that the liquors be sot
out. As thu fiery element warmed
them up they would often secure a
violin or banjo and improvise a regu
lar "stag dance. " Eich fellow would
select a partner from among 'the '
crowd , thu musician would start up the
"Arkansas Traveler , " or some other
familiar tune , and the lender wr > " 'd
call out "forward four"and thodunco
commenced. When thfi uro "lulaticu
to your partner" was rouoh l many " a
follow would "cut the pigeon-wing ,
and his partner , j * t" bu outdone ,
would induteo jwaonie fantastic stops ,
which wou'J do crcdi to the moat
famed olog dtncor on the tnin-
glrul boards. In the height
of this revelry would begin a fuailadn
from revolvers. Bang ! bang ! bani > !
and above the din the load r would
bo hoard calling out , "Turn your part
ners ; promenade all , " The first tigurn
being finished , nvery fellow would
begin to Jook ut the heels of his boots
to BOO whore the bullets went. The
result would disclose that a largo ma-
joiity had boon hit about the hee-1 with
a bullet. Thin practice of shooting ut
the heels of one's boots is common
among the cowboy f , and BO accurate
a'ro they in their aim that an accident
seldom occurs. Shooting the heels
tifT one another's boots is a common
recreation with them.
On the occasion of one of these
"eittg dances" u cowboy who had re
cently joined the gang participated in
the fusilade. Oil an examinaiion at

A prosecuting attorney was chosun ,
airl the court assigned counsel to de
fend thu prisoner ,
In a few moments thu prosecuting
attorney handed the clerk the indict-
meut , und the court ordered thu clerk
to reud it to the prisoner , who wai
oommum cd to Bland up. The uloik
did tin ha was ordered , and this was
the documnnt he read :
"Wo , the underuigiied , grand jurors

The court "Guilty or not guilty } "
Prisoner "Not guilty. "
All the formality oi selecting a jury ;
the taking of testimony , and the cross-
examination of counsel was gone
through wJth. No detail of an ordi
nary trial at law was omitted. Fi
nally the cose was submitted to the
jury , who , after a few moments' con
sultation , announced that they had
upon a verdict.
The court "Gontlomon , have j on
agreed upon a verdict ? "
Fornmnn of the jury "Wo have ,

The court "Clerk , road the rer-
diot. "
The forrniftii of the jury hands thu
clerk a piper. Clerk rendx :
"We , the undersigned jurors , do
find the prisoner guilty , as charged , "

"stand up. Joe Palmer , the jury of

The next morning the aontonco XM

"Curly Bill , " in speaking of this
afterward * , romirkod that no man wn

lioel off of a fellow's boot while he
dtncod.
The true inwardness of tha killing
of Palmer trnnrpircd nfierwards to he
tlm : He had but a ahoi't time before
joined thu K ng , nnd they became con
vinced that ho WAS a "dtnol pigeon , "
or , in ether words , an informer. So
they determined to kill htm. The
method above related was so
leotod for their nmusoinont. The
few respectable and law abiding
people in the section of Anr > nn
where this occurred , dnrod not open
their mouths or resist the dospera-
doe * , So toiroriV.d was the country
that to have done s. ) would have been
pertain death , coupled with the steal
ing or destruction of whatever prop
erty they might possess. The fro-
quunt stage robboricc , murders , and
incendiary fires prevalent in the terri
tory one ycarngo had their origin and
were successfully carried out through
complicity of some of the officers of
the hw with "Curly Bill's" gang. To
