 It is currently reported that Curley Bill was seen in the neighborhood of River side last week Several other suspicious characters have been lettering within the sacred precincts of this county recently. It would be well to quietly organize a vigilance committee to keep weather eye on that class of strangers. There are some very fine horses here and at Pinal, which in all probability, these suspicious visitors are looking after. Thieves have openly boasted that this valley would be relieved of few of its blooded steeds soon.

FEMALE SocIETY.-What is it
that makes all those men who as
sociate habitually with women
superior to others who do not ?
What makes that woman who is
accustomed to, and at ease in, the
society of men, superior to her
sex IN general? Solely because
they are in the habit of free,
graceful continued conversation
with the other sex. Women in
this way lose their frivolty, their
faculties awaken, their delicacies
and peculiarities unfold all their
beauty and captivation in the
spirit of intellectual rivalry. And
the men lose their pedantic, rude,
declamatory or sullen manner.
Their asperities are rubbed off,
their better materials polished
and frightened, and their rich
ness like gold, is wrought into
finer workmanship by the fingers
of women than it ever could be by
those of men. The iron and steel
of their character are like the
armor Of giants by studs and
knots of gold and precious stones,
when they are not wanted in
actual warfare.

TIE CZAR's CORONATION.
How he will Reach Moscow, and the DAM

Moscow Letter,

The Gear is the sole legislator, the
sole supreme judge and the Unlimited

globe, populated, by 100,0O0,0e0 Of
his subjects. Indeed, he is the
Earthly god of the Russians. And
yet that god is now trembling like an

post communications, and while the
Muscovites are in full turmoil of prep
aration for his coronation, at the same
time his deadly foes are reported to be
also busy preparing for the Gear
some fireworks of their own make.
But where to look for these fireworks,
underground, on the surface or in the
air, nobody knows, and everybody is
full of dark apprebeusions. The
question where the Nihilists can best
deal their blow to the Czar is dis
cussed here in whispers. 10 the first

there is great danger for the Gar

THE TARANTULA.

The Texas tarantula when. 1t ls
full grown, is boss among spiders
what Jesse James is among
robbers. or Jay Gould among
railroad magpates. He has hair
all over his legs, and wears his
eyes on the top Of his head to see
that nobody takes advantage OF
him. We are not describing Jay
Gould, but the tarantula. He is
big enough, and hungry enough
to gobble up all the rest, which
remark however, applies as we'll
to Jay as 10 the tarantula. The
tarantula is a desperate among
insects. In one respect, never.be-
less, be differs very much from
the Texas desperate. The latter
is more dangerous when in liquor
than at any other time, while the
tarantula is the most harmless one
on the road, as long as he is under
the influence Of alcohol, and the
bottle is corked up tightly. The
tarantula makes himself respected
with a pair of hooked fangs,
which at the same time are the
principal cause of his unpoo- ::ari-
ty. AS long as this amiable in
sect is not interfered with, he at
tends strictly to bis own business,
but if anybody punches him in
the small Of the back with sn um-
brella, or spits tobacco juice on
him, be becomes irritable and
peevish. Under such provocation
he will jump up and down, sling
his arms and legs about, gnash his
teeth, and 60 on for all the world
like stump speaker whose 7e-
racity has been questioned by
man in the crowd. On such &C.
casions be will jump on any.
body, regardless of his size or
| social status.
Like all dlsagreeable people,
the tarantula has his personal en-
emies. The enemy he likes less
than all the rest, is a large black
wasp, whose only mission in life
seems to take the conceit out of
the tarantula. BE accomplishes
this remarkable feat by vacclnating

ble-bugs and grass-hoppers, be has
to look out for the wasp. A fight be-
tween the wasp and the tarantula
is almost as interesting as Con-
gressional debate on sectional
tissues, and it always ends with
the death Of the spider. As soon
as the tarantula hears the buzz of
the wasp, be looks for hole to
crawl into, and if there is none
handy, it is goodbye John with
Mr.. Spider. The wasp circles
around the excited spider, very
much as hawk does over barn-
yard. Suddenly he dives down,
7accinates the tarantula, and flies
up again. 1t does not seem as il
be had touched the spider, but be
has, and it has taken too, for in

prairies begins to walk zig-zag,

How II WAS DONB.

Church Torriugton was perhaps
the greatest coward in New

reader-physically speaking our
young hero was as brave as Bay
ard, as dauntless as Ceur de
Lion. But it was where the fair
sex was concerned that Mr.. Tor
rington became a poltroon. A
gentle glance from a pair Of blue
eyes was enough TO throw him into
8 cold perspiration at any time.
AS one by one the companions
of his boyhood and early youth
vanished out of the path of bach
erlorhood and entered into the
promised land of matrimony,
Church Torrington viewed them
With q not unenvious mind.
sHow the mischief did they
master mp courage enough to. do
it?' was his internal reflection.
And Harry Leslie, wag OF
forty, who always had 8 knack OF
finding out verybody else's weak
points, said {:
