THE Western Union Telegraph Com
papy promised to reduce its rates every
Where on the Pacific Coast, and in some
places as much as 3311& per cent. By max
ing these and other lying promises, it
sought to allay public anxiety at seeing it
gobble up the Atlantic Il Pacific telegraph.
The A. 81 P. used to charge US Is cents for
ten words from here to Los Angeles and 81
to San Francisco The w. U. first raised the
rate to so cents to Los Angeles and to other
places in proportion; and it now announ-
ces another raise, based on a rate of 70
cents to Los Angeles, to take effect after
April l. The old A. & P. telegraph COM
pany was not such an awful monopoly"

District Court.-Nice Attorney.

Court met March Is, pursuant to ad-
journment.
Reilly VS.. Werninger; demurrer over
ruled; judgment against defendant.
County of Yuma VS.. Werninger; judgment
for defendant; costs taxed at SIS against
district attorney, under section 500, chap
ter 4S, Compiled Laws. LANCE VS.. Kerens
& Mitchell; demurrer overruled; 40 days
allowed for answer Thompson VS.. Wern-
niger; demurrer sustained as to misjoinder
of parties, over1uled as to other grounds.
Blair vs. Horner and Norton, submitted.
March 25, Reilly VS.. Shine; demurrer
sustained; leave granted to file another
amended complaint. Blair VS. Horner and
Norton; appealed from Justices court;
judgment for defendant. In the course OF
the proceedings in this case, the court ex-
pressed its surprise to find that the tran
script of the Justices docket, as well as the
instrument itself ian order for the payment
of money! on which the action was based
showed that material alteration had been
made by the plaintiffs attorney, James
Reilly, Esq He had only written the word
accepted on it, some doubt having been
expressed as to whether the order had
ever been accepted. The court went on to
say that such practice on the part of ali
attorney was, "to say the least of it, very
reprehep The next day the attorney
bounced the clerk with charges Of con-
spiracy with the court to injure his prac-
tice: high phrased Celtic defiance just
pushed out of him; and he wound up by
declaring that had the judge used such
language to him on the street, he would
have "spit in his face and kickrd his
(vulgar language) for half an hour" The
clerk merely remarked that he, the clerk,
couldn't be kicked for five seconds, and
that some of this war-talk had better be
devoted to the judge himself. James did
address the court on the subject, but
"roared as mildly as any sucking dove"
The Compiled Laws, pages 81 and 81, have
something to say about altering orders
for the payment of money, and say it in
connection with forgery" "imprison-
ment" and other words harsher than ere
preheDsible." Now James, spit on both
sides Of that book, kick it for two half
hours, and then sit down and realize what
an ass a man makes of himself who loses
his temper and uses bad language in a
public place. After that, you will be more
worthy to fill the Office of District Attor-
ney, and to practice in the District Court
which, March p, adjourned sine die.

New Tricks for Old Dogs.

Down at the old ship-yard at Port lsa-
bel, there were three dogs that had been
there for years. When the yard was aban-
doned and everything brought to Yuma,
the dogs came also. Down there they had
so thoroughly learned that the water f
the slough was salt and unfit for drink
ing, that it took them long time up here
to Learn that the waters of the Colorado
are different. Though swimming in the
river nearly every day, they would only
drink water poured out for them in pan.

TIE stopping of the stage on the Mari
copa Desert last week, don't seem to have
amounted to much. A Mexican met the
so. Three other Mexicans were standing
near by. One of the passengers pOked
his head out and asked what was wanted.
Receiving no reply he said; "Driver, l
guess you'd better drive on" He drove
on, without further bloodshed.

Sad Accident.

A little boy named Gowan, about or
years old, went into corral here the
other day to see newly born calf. The
cow attacked him, throwing him into the
air repeatedly and infiicting severe inter-
nal injuries. One thrust of her horn
pierced his cheek, penetrating the orbit of
the eye and crushing its contents to a
jelly. The poor child's mangled eye still
hangs out over his cheek, Inflammation
rendering it impossible to restore it to its
place. He las spit out considerable blood
and lies in critical condition.

The new store at Pinal, started by Col.
G. g. MasCI, must soon be in condition to
supply miners and ranchers in that vicini-
ty with all the goods they need. Some
27O00 pounds of well assorted, fresh new
goods have been shipped to him from here
during the past ten days, in addition to
stock on hand and to arrive. Col. Mason
is a man who has made fortune in Arizo-
ma, and is using it here in building up the
country. A good example.

New capstern barrels have been received
for the steamboat ways. They appear to
be of laurel and are Of ten inches diane
ter in the neck. The necks of the ones
first sent down were twisted off in draw
ing the steamboat Colorado out Of the
water.
The steamboat company's new black
smith and machine shop has been painted.
Tom Leroys gang is now at work grading
a site for the new carpenter shop, for which
material is cow arriving.
Most of the old C. S. N. Co.'s warehouse
is to be torn away and replaced by new
freiglt-sheds to accommodate the increas-
ing traffic on The river. TIE hosting and
pumping engine will be rooted over and
facilities afforded for running freight direct
from cars to barges, without passing it
through the present warehouse. The in
clire leading down to the river should be
made wider. So much heavy machinery
is now coming in for points up the river,
that loading it monopolizes the present
platform, thus delaying the slowing of
other freight.
The Colorado has indicated the wisdom
of repairs lately put on her and has af-
forded much credit to her new captain,
c. V. Meeden, by good time made on her
late trip to Ehrenberg. She left here
March 19, at twenty minutes past five p. NJ,
heaving that night over the bar about a
mile above town, and arrived at Ehrenberg
very early on the morning of the 23d.
Capt. Meeden has been on the river some
ten years, working IN all capacities and
lately as captain of freight b rges. He is
a good sailor man, and his first trip in
command Of the Colorado shows him to
be good steamboat pilot The Colorado
will move some 800 cords of wood before
returning.
The next boat up the river is expected
to leave here April 10 for Aubrey and way
landings,

1t is wonderful with what tenacity life
clings sometimes to the most wretched
creatures. 7 remember once, when quite
8 Young child / had caught June bug,
stuck needle through it's body, attach
ed piece of paper in the shape of a
wagon to it, and enjoyed the sight as the
poor creature ran about and drew the
wagon. My father, having noticed this
cruel play, came to the table calmly,
and in few words gave me to understand
what great pain had inflicted on the
poor fly. I desired to liberate it at once,
but he stopped me with the words:
mo, you must look at your work for
five minutes more. The fly runs about
and makes such gambols that it is fun
for you to look on, but it is writhing in
-agenies Of death, for the poor creature
was enjoying life and health but few
minutes ago. It's loud humming is moth
ing but the cry of excrutiating pain
which you have so cruelty inflicted on it,
You must look at your work for few
minutes more
I cried, | begged him to let me liberate
the fly, but he insisted that [ should
look on until [ became almost terrified
and closed my eyes
Since that time the sight Of the tort
ured fly is always before my eyes,
Whenever [ would see poor, wretched
being like Treitel, it would appear to
me as though Providence had created
them with sharp needle through their
bodies, in order to enjoy the view of
their twisting and writhing. But [ have
learned since then that cruelty is oftener
the work Of man than that of Provi-
dence. The pain which nature inficts
is never anything else but the conse-
quences of wrong, unnatural action,
perpetrated either by the sufferer him
self or by such persons as had influenced
his 4ife.
Ny Treitel was healthy and strong
for his age, Notwithstanding the many
disadvantages under which he labored.
