Tucson Items.

Our capitalists and bloated bond holders have been this week luxuriat- ing on fresh eastern oysters in the shell or halfshell, according to taste. Alex. Levin of the Gem is always doing something to help out epicures and in- duce prodigality.
 The new city council organized last night W. s. Edwards was chosen city recorder. There is talk of revlving the chain-gang to clean and work on the streets, and thereby humiliate as well as imprison criminals. The new council is composed of the "solid men of the city.
 Among the imprisonments of the week, was that of Fred Eberhardt for stealing. Justice Meyer sent him up for seventy-fve days. Fred will hardly enjoy the chain-gang, but the under standing seems to be that he did steal and sell sundry blankets, etc. Some body stole Parson Anderson's fine sad. de and bridle on Monday by boldly going into the house early in the even ing. Other thefts have been commit ted and hence it is thought that the chain gang will be popular with honest people.
 Paymaster Fowler arrived this week. Mr. Vedder (clerk of the late Paymas ter Morrow) is Major Towler's clerk. Lieut.. J. B. Kerr passed through Tue son early in the week from Grant, en route to Prescott to attend a masauer- ade ball.

DISSATISFIED people in Arizona are not numerous so far as we know, but to the few that doubtless are here. we commend the following taken from tie San Francisco Bulletins summary of business for 1877 in California:
 The year in our own State cannot be numbered among the more prosperous ones. It has not been a year of great dlsaters. But the industrial product of the State has fallen short bv many millions of the result anticipated at the beginning of the year. There has not been the usual activity in the chan nels of trade, consequent in part upon diminished agricultural products and diminished placer mining. The de mand for labor fell off early in the season, so that at the close there are more men out of employment than at any time durin the last ten years. Few CT people than usual have made money. The best that could be done was to hold on for better times.

Painful Accident.

A very sad accident, in which Miss Lil- He Haines is the sufferer, occurred in town late Tuesday afternoon. Lillie is a bright little girl Of nine summers, a favorite of the family and neighborhoOd. She had just recovered from a protracted illness through which she displayed most love- ly, patient, and submissive disposition. On Tuesday afternoon an elder sister Of Lilies was preparing to make a visit to some friends, and was just about to start. when she thought or little pistol which she thought she would take with her. Lil- lie ran Into the house to bring the pistol and handed it to her sister with the muz- zle toward her own breast. The weapon must have been cooked, for her sister no sooner grasped the pistol than it explod- ed. the bullet entering L1Ilie's right breast, seveung rib and lodging in the region Of the spine. The little sufferer is lying in a very critical condition, and though she Is patient and cheerful, her physicians entertain serious doubts ot her recovery. We heartily sympathize with poor little Ldllie and the afflicted family This sad should serve as another warn- ing against the indifferent handling Of firearms.

SMALL FEET.-For the sake of having
small feet, many an otherwise sensible
woman will martyrize herself by pinch
ing those unlucky members of the body
into boots size too small. AS natural
and necessary result of such pinching con-
finement, the foot becomes deformed, and
larger than it would naturally grow with
enlarged joints, and toes turned from
line parallel with the foot, to say nothing
of the troublesome corns, SO annoying and
crippling to large class of young wo-
men. The worst results of this crippling
custom of wearing small and narrow boots
is felt by children, when allowed to out
grow their boots. 1t is poor economy to
allow the young to wear boots when the
feet have become too large for them,
since deformity of the feet is easily pro-
duced at this time. When the boot is
too short and the heel too high, the in
growing of the nails is perfectly natu-
raj result. Children will have sufficient
ills to contend with without this crippling
from deformed feet, the most prominent
cause of which is small and badly fitting
boots and shoes.
