ervation Indians A number of raiders
have been in Arizona for three weeks
past, The last alarming report, two days
ago, that eighty Apaches were seen on
Santa Rita range beyond Camp Crittenden
and over in Santa Cruise Valley above
Catabasas, is wholly untrue. Tombstone
rangers have been in Wilcox; they say
they are on the Indian trail and do not
appear anxious to reach San Carlos.
Crook has been greatly hampered and an
noyed by these infiammatory articles and
falsehoods; he will move into Mexico on
Sunday; the force will consist of 192
Apaches under Capt. Crawford of Third

An Undiscovered Sense.

In certain printing office in this city
there is a compositor who is deaf and
dumb. In the same printing office there
are two other eompositors who are en-
dowed with the power of evolving tre-
mendous sneezes when the spirit tickles
their noses. One of them is little,
short chubby fellow, with round red
face. The grandeur of his sneeze is so
utterly disproportionate to the diminu-
tive size of his body that his fellow -prin-
ters refer to it as "a wrong font sneeze. -
The other is tall, raw-boned yankee,
who sneezes in the good old down-east
fashion. Neither of the two compost
tors who sneeze work in the same alley
with the compositor who is deaf and
dumb, and the cases between them are
so arranged that he cannot see either of
them. Nevertheless, when either of
them sneezes he always jumps as though
cannon ball were fired into his ear.
OF course he cannot hear the noise.
The question for the scientists is: How
does he know just when to jumpP-Bos-
ton Globe.

A FENDERFOOT AT TOMBSTONE.
How a Little Question in Grammar was
Settled Within Three Minutes.

A few days ago a flash young man
from an Eastern college arrived at
Tombstone, Arizona, and registered his
name at the principal hotel. A socially
inclined person, in blue shirt and wide
trimmed hat, who chanced TO be in the
office, good naturedly answered every
question and volunteered vast amount
of interesting information about AriZo-
ma in general and Tombstone in partic
ular.
ssDo you see them hillspn asked the
Tombstoner, pointing through one of the
office windows We'll, them hills is
chock full of pay dirt .
The young man from the East looked
shocked.
my dear sir, he said proudly, but
kindly, .'you should say those hills are
not them hills is.
The Tombstoner was silent for a mo-
ment He looked the young man from
the East critically over as if he was es-
timating the size of coffin he would
wear Then drawing out an ivory
stocked seven-shooter of elaborate style
and finish, he said in a soft, mild, mu-
sical tone of voice that sounded like a
wildwood brook coursing Ger its pebble
bed, "My gentle unsalted tenderfoot
from the land of the rising sun, this
here's pint that you and me dlsagrees
on, and we might as well have it settled
RIGHT now. / haven t. looked in a gram
mar recently, but I'm a going to stand
by that opinion while I've shot left.
I'll give you just three minutes to think
calmly over the subject, for you prob
ably spoke in haste the first time, and
then I'll hear your decision.
The young man from the East looked
down the delicately chased barrel of the
revolver into the placid depth of the'eye
of the Tombstoner and began to feel
that many points in grammar are uncer-
tain and liable to grow more so. Then
he thought of the coroner inquest, and
of the verdict, .scame to his death by
standing in front of Colorado Tom 3
seven-shooter, y and of the long pine
box going East by express. with 500
charges on it, and before half the three
minutes was up he was ready to ac-
knowledge his error. .sSince he had
thought it over calmly" he said, The
belle led that them hills is is right. be
had spoken on the spur of the moment,
he added, ssand begged thousand par
dons for his presumptuous effort TO SUD-
stitute bad grammar for good.
The Tombstoner forgave him freely
and, grasping his hand, said:
II know'd you'd say you was wrong
after You thought a moment | admire
q man who gives right in without argu-
ing when he knows he's wrong. Come
along and irrigate. And they lrr1-
gated.
