THOSE WOMEN FOLK.
How Bard-ueaded Men Estimate some Thins> which they don't nderstHnd.

Anybody who has led a domestic life know how common such things as the backsche, and pains in the chest, are among the women who do the work Often-and perhaps eenerally-the distresses are borne without much complaint. The women get about. and the machinery of the house goes on. Beyond this, those coarse-srained animals whom New England women call ''the men folks. z" seldom look. So long as their wives or daughters are not actually in bed, under the doctors caro. the average thick skinned husband and father gives the subject no attention. At the same time the poor household drudges-who deserve a better fate-creep around. broom or utensils n hand, up stairs. down stairs and out of doors, doing that woman's work. which 'is never done" Losses of loved wives and fair girls-losses whose suddenne~s and unexpected ness astonish those woodsn-psted husbands and fathers-fall, seemingly, out Of e-ea- sky and form the logical sequel Co the story of neglect.
 Now, you men who stand az the head of ter thousand such homes. allow us t3 drop word IT your receptive ears. lf these women of yours are worth having they worth saving. That backache. that pain in the chest, What are they but indications of some organic trouble of the kidneys, the heart or the luug-: End 1t at once by the application of BESSON'S CAPClNE PO- ROUS PLASTER. It will soo-hc that nervous distress, driye away thnt pain. ban4sh that d1ll weary hacksche, give new strength Co the body and fresh hope Co tine heart. No other plasters will do this. The Benson's pllster, however. is not made 70 sell-but Co heal lt Is a re,sedy which never yet broke its promiss-aud never will.
 Your druggist has 1t. But before paying your 2 cents and putting the plaster in your pocket, look for the word CAPCINE cutin the middle.

Dr. Robert Gunn.

Dr. Robert Gum, who died at Porter's hotel, in this city, at two o'clock on Mon day morning, was a remarkable man, His home was in St. Joseph, Missouri where he was honored and beloved by the entire community. Throughout the West he was well known as a railroad builder and promoter. The great bridge across the Missouri river at St. Joseph was built by him, and he was its super intendent at the time of his death. The bridge company, notwithstanding he was so busy with other matters, always refused to have any other sup4rintend- Sut
 He organized the fire department at St. Joseph, and was its Chief Engineer for many Years. He was one of the Board Of Fire Commissioner
 He was, at the time of the sad event which We chronicle, he Superintendent of the Sombreretillo Mill and Mining Company. In connection with the busi- ness of this company he cane to this city from the mine on the 2Sth of Au- gust. On the following morning be was taken with vertigo while standing at the office desk in the hotel. He was re- moved to his room by his friend Colonel Dudley Hoyt, who, ID connection with our townsmRn, Mir. Marcus katz, watched over him with brotherly care until the hour of his death. Ais es- teemed wife was telegraphed when his case became alarming, and she, with a member of the Sombreretillo Company, will arrive here by this evenings train. His remains have been embalmed, and will be escorted to the depot by the Ma sonic fraternity. He was Sir Knight of high standing.
 Dr. Gum was a much beloved and loving husband and father, and, in all the relations of life, a true man. He was the friend Of President Lincoln who offered him high position when Presid- ent of the United States. He was q man of brains. Into the realm of intense thought and of stern investigation he pierced with keen eye and grasped with a tenacious will. The established truths of science and mechanics were as familiar to him as the letters of his name.
 The studious and reading hours O, each day until he began to look down the westward and homeward slope of life had stored his mind with a world of information as varied as it was accurate and concise.
 Here upon this desert of the far West, upon which there are 80 many marks and monuments to his memory and his name, he has passed quietly and calmly away. To his beloved wife and daught- CTS the loss IS irreparable. The sweet memory Of his life, of his affection-of his devotion, will comfort them in thls hour of sorrow. To them, across half n continent, the warm hand of sympathy is extended and the tears of new found friends mingle with those from eyes which have gszed upon him fondly for years, but which will never behold his manly form again. Upon his tombstone can be truthfully inscribed all that can be said of any human being: He was good man. He lived a useful life"

A CLOUD BURST.
SiN Immense Rivers Come Down the Hills From a Cioudless sky.

siN Immense Rivers Come Down the
 Hills From a CloudIess sky.
 On Sunday afternoon one of those curious phenomena of nature occurred about thirty miles southwest of Tucson, and from the description given by eye witnesses, itseTas the largest cloud burst ever known in this country. From Judge R. D. Ferguson the following account was gathered: On Sunday he was returning from trip to the south ern part of the county. At 10 o'clock be put up at Browns station to await dinner and avoid the heat of the day. The sky all day was cloudless. except a thunder storm that was observed travel ing the summits Of the Santa Catalinas and disappearing over the Rincons in the northeast. Otherwise not a cloud or vapOr of any kind was to be seen. The sun was shining in all his vigor. and as he passed to the west his strength and glory seemed uudiminished.
 At three o'clock Judge Ferguson re- sumed his journey towards Tucson. He had come about five miles when hls at tention was attracted by roaring and cracking toward the west, and looking up he saw a river of water, as big as the Santa Cruz when 1t runs through War ner's mIll taIl-race, coming toward him. Telling his drlver tu halt, they stopped on top of a little knoll, and watched the waters as they violently plowed the desert, tearing up stones and brush. They had evidently spent their force After the flood had passed by the face of the cOun- try was distigured, aud 6 large gut ter had been cut across the valley. The current came down off a small range of low, rolling hills to the west. Although the judge and his companion strained their eyes in the direction from which the water came not a cloud was to be seen. After the water had subslded sufficiently to let them pass they went on. They had hardly gone half mile when to their utter Rstonishment here was another stream equally as large as the first one. Again they peered toward the west as If in hopes to find some ln- dicatiOn of its source. Passing on, their astonishment vas doubled t. find anoth- ar stream. and III ths manner five sue csssive raging currents were crossed. But all their reserve was called forth when four miles from where they struck the first stream they discovered a sixth one as large as all the others combined Its angry waters were waving and his sing as if maddened at the resistlnce they met on their way from the hills down to the desert This river was un- fordable, and to cross 1t. was impossible so they halted on a knoll, and watched 1t for over two hours, as 1t boiled and sizzled, and cut bed for itself III some places as deep as fifteen feet, and Ovel two hundred yards wide. It was not till after sundown that they dared to at tempt a crossing.
 What renders 1t SO curious Is that HC one at Browns Station saw the clouds It may be possible that somo hIddeI springs were uncorked by some subter ranean earthquake At any rate II is . great wonder.

Street Commissioner.

The Street Commissioner of the city of Tucson has to give bond ID the sum of five thousand dollars. Under our city charter he has constant duties to perform. Should he fail to properly perform such duties his bondsmen are held responsible, but by the resolution of the City Council, passed September 4th, he is to receive no pay unless ordered to work by the Mayor, or by the Council, or by the Chairman of the Street Committee. To repeat, II the Commissioner does his work constantly, under the charter, he gets no pay, but if he does not work his bOndsmen are responsible for his failure to perform his duty. Under this circumstsnce Mir. Thomas Gates, showed good sense in resiguing. He was a good, faithful and competent officer, always doing his duty to the entire satisfaction of the people. Mir. Gates leaves for California in a few days on business and pleas ure. He goes with the good wishes of his many friends here, who hope he will have pleasant and profitable visit and an early and safe return.
