A woman who had been swinging in hammock in 8 yard on CSss avenue yesterday, had no sooner Va cated it in answer to call from the houee than ragged old tramp who had been leaning over the fence walked inside and cooly planted him self in the hammock for a siesta. In about five mInutes the woman reap peared and, seeing at glance how
 nattters stood, she brought out 6 sharp knife, walked straight up to the fellow and before he could chuckle twice she cut the head-rope. He came down on bis head with a thump, toppled over at full length and slow ly scrambled up and walked off. Not 8 word vas said until he was outside the gate; then he turned and called out; Maybe you'd like my photo graph just as l keeled out of that old fish net, but you won't get it. not by a jugful.' .''-Detroit Free Press,

The True IRwardness of me
 Case.

Tucson, A. T., August 22-Eskin- sla. an Apache chief from Aravapa Canon. stated to Citizen reporter today that General Crook returned from the Sierra Madre with 233 h. dians, mostly old Womeu and chil- dren, and two chiefs of the Warm Spring Indians, Loco and Bolito. Loco is very old man. Not one of the Chiricahus warriors came with him; all stay ed with the best of the young women. They let General Crook bring in old women and chil- dren back to the reservation, where they could be cared for. The Chiri- cahuas could not afford to keep Sc large 8 crowd in the Sierra Madre, Natchez, son of Cochise, told Gener. al Crook that he would return in two days. which he did not do. Their old women and children have plenty to eat at-ths reservation and are well cared for and they are out in the Si- errs Madrss with their young women and plenty of game. The scouts say there was DO fight when tle women and children were surrendered. A daughter of Bonita was accidentally shot while trying to ruH@ away from camp. She got frightened. That WAS the only shot fred. There was nobody killed, and there WAS no bat tie. If there had been, Gen. Crook and his entire force would have been msssacred, because the Indians sur rounding them were superior in num- bers, as we'll armed and had the sym pathy of over half the scouts, whu divided their ammunition with them right under General Crooks nose. They did not kill Crook. but made him serve them better purpose by taking their old women and children back to the San Carlos reservation. where they would receive proper care, while they could remain in the Sierra Asdre with their young woln- GU and make raids on the Americans at their leisure.

have perfect teeth.[San Ffancisco Chronicle. b4 ,s.

New York Sun: An officer of 8 school in Boston for the blind says that sightless persons may become the most expert piano tuners. Through it's constant exercise the faculty of hearing becomes so acute that intervals in the scale of sounds, which are 80 slight as to be upnotic- ed by other persons, are readily de- tected by the blind. The slightest imperfection in unlsons Is discord to them. Their knowledge of the mech anism of pianos is obtained through the use of models and the dissection If old instruments. Besides, they are thoroughly taught Tn that branch of physics which treats of the nature of saunds and the laws ofits production and transmission.

Tale Formation.

In mining and prospecting in this country altogether too little atteL- ton has been paid to the formation known ss tale. This substance is generally found in the ueighborhood of mieeral, and common custom has assigned it to the dump. That there ar ii.ore iormx. ions that ca " mineral than the genera, accepted ores is te. ing proved from tune to time so c,n- clusively that to say anything is bar ren is making an assertion that Is likely to give the lie on test. Car bonates, in the early days of Lead vile, or Cslifornis Gulch, as 1t was then called, were known to exist, and were supposed to be valueless, and hence the bonanza camp lay for years undeveloped and unthousht of other than for it's placer mines. Telluriumlis another formation, though known to experts and well-posted inning men, is not generally known at sight, and tons Lave been consigned to the dump by tendsrfeet and prospectors because they could not see anything that looked like mineral Tn it. Re gently at Bonanza, Colorado, some parties working a prospect were throwing this valuable mineral over the dump and other parties coming along and seeing it bought the prop erty for a fraction of what was in sight and on the dump. And now we find the Nellie s. mine, on Prin- ter Boy Hill, Leadville. has been consigning tale to tho waste dump that on Rssay rune from S20,GG0 to S50,OOO ton in gold. The Polomas Chief, New Mexico, has given us some magnificent specimens of native silver ID tale. and now the Cuchillos are furnishing specimens that are plentifully specked with silver. To prospect thoroughly, formations ly ing adjacent to bodies of mineral should be sssayed and hearsay or common custom dispensed with. The fact that Ws cannot see mineral in rock is no evidence that it is not there, and to presuppose that We know all about 1t is to show ourselves enemies to advancement and science.

-s possession Cf a mans cornheld on the Silver King trail. which ie twenty three miles from the line of the San Carlos reservation. People will very naturally ask what such things mean. Agent Wilcox abolished passes on the reservation except for specisl purposes, which were always set forth in the pass. He held to the opinion that so long as the Indians ara fed by the government, that they have no business of the reservation. Since military rule has been substi- tuted for that of civilian. new order of things prevail, and the tagged and petted rsscals are allowed to roam at will over that portion of Ari- zona set apart as reservation for white men. Perhaps this Is to show them that i've are not afraid of them" This is In accordance with Gen. Crooks teachings. He says ''it will not do to disarm them, for they will then think we are afraid of them" and that ito take the arms from an Indian breaks his heart" It matters little how often they break tn Q hearts of white pNople-or their heads for that matter, co long as they are not greived. How much longer this farce can go on without an open rupture, it is impossible to foretell, but it is safe to say, that the storm will break and with such force as will make all other wars appear as mere skirmishes before the battle, The Apaches know that they are al lowed to retain their arms and rove at will because someone Is afraid of them. and dare not dlsarm them. The restless bucks on the reservation know of the good time the Chirica huss are having in the Sierra Mad res, and some fine morning they will take it into their heads to go forth and do likewise. Events are shaping themselves very much as they did two years ago before the Cibicu out break. Then it was the agent who was to blame; now 1t is tbe military. -Phenix Gazette.

The liouid, spreading into thin layer, evapor- ates instantly without going into the so-called spheroidal state, ard the steam acts iu the cylinder as fresh formed. The speed of the pump is regulated by the engine.
