Old Joe Douglass.

In speaking of the operations of
the bogus money man the other
day, the Chronicle said:
A rumor is abroad that J. NJ.
Douglass also discovered several
stacks of the bogus dollars in max
ing up his accounts last evening.
He refrains from exciting public
sympathy by stating the exact
amount of his loss precipitately to
the street.
OLD Joe Douglass is one Of the
financial fixtures of the Comstock
having fixed himself to about all
the finances that are left up there.
Borrowing money at 6 per cent. a
year in San Francisco on long time
and loaning it out at 2 per cent. a
month on silt-edged collateral, is
what makes Joe Douglass the big
Iniun of G street. Lots of men
say they've seen Douglass take a
ten-cent piece between his finger
and thumb and squeeze blood out
of it. He has a peculiar eagle
beake6 formation Of the proboscis,
and with this hook in the middle
Of his face, he can pry nickel cut
of a crack in the floor. Hundreds
of men in Virginia sweat seven
DAYS in the week to keep old Joe
Dourlass in min money.

AN Adalnless Eden"

Tomorrow evening the adam

forth at the Opera House. The
company is composed of collec-
ton of women with pretty faces
and voluptuous figures, singing
catching airs that fit the piece. For
the status Of the troup the APPEAL
does not propose to vouch. We
have taken assurances of advance
agents CT companies long enough
and we have been swindled into
printing press notices of perform
ances, ostensibly copied from East
ern papers, that subsequent de-
velopments showed we're written
up in the private Office of the man
ager. The "Adamless Eden" COM
pany is a leg show pure and simple,
Just as the hand bills. show it to be.
and if any one looks at the posters
and goes there expecting to see a
refined operate performance they
are travelling on their own corclu-
sions, not ours. There is no dan
ger about the house, however, it
will be packed from orchestra to
gallery. Pretty women in flesh col
ored tights have proved an ATTRACTION
on the stage for the past hundred
years and will continue to prove SO as
long as there are calcium lights. pref
ty women and pink silk Hosiery to
combine. Friend has a new as
sortment Of opera glasses to let and
there is no extra charge for bald

BENEVOLENT mAxAGER.

He Turns eat AID Gives the
Newsboys Lift.
For some months past, the Sac
ramento Bee has been lashing that
prince Of bilks D. ]. Simmons, the
theatrical manager. Here is its
last:
Yesterday afternoon D. J. Sim
mons, actuated by a praiseworthy
desire to aid the little fellows in
their endeavor to gain an honest
livelihood, stopped the newsbeys on
their way up town, bought all the
Bees they had, tore them up and
threw them into the street in front
Of the Metropolitan. 1t was an
act of charity, 30 delicately done
that it at once struck the gamins
with admiration. Boy-like, they
eadevoured to impose upon Mr..
Simmons generosity, ran down to
the Bee Office, obtained another
batch Of papers and rushed back
in search of their generous pur-
chaser. That benevolent man
bought them out again, and again
disposed Of the papers in the
street. Such unexampled prodig-
atty struck the boys with amaze
ment, and they thought that at
last they had found the Good Man
Bountifal, who would buy their
wares as long as they had them to
sell. He had already purchased
and destroyed over fifty, and they
imagined that he intended to buy
up the entire edition. The third
time however they counted without
their hoste, for Mr.. Simmons had
disappeared, his cash probably not
being able to keep pace with his
charity. However, the will must
be taken for the deed. It was a
noble act to thus aid the strus
Cling newsbovs, and the eccentric
ity with which it was carried out
only added charm to the noble and
self-sacrifcing spirit in which it
was planned. We are always
more than pleased to aid our citi-
zens in their good works, and
whenever Mr. Simmons desires to
give the waits such surprise and
treat as that of Yesterday, We will
be only to glad to have an extra
edition struck off for his benefit.

Mackay's Newspaper.

A recent issue Of the Sun saws ::
Mackay arrived in the Oregon
Sunday and gave his Junior part
ner, James Gordon Bennett, leave
of absence to take cruise on the
Namouna through the West India
Isles. Bennett was not slow to
avail himself of his holiday, and
started off early on Monday. Be-
fore doing SO, however, he felt that
he must show his shaking-up pow
ers, so he shook Haberton, author
of "Helen's Babies" out of the
Telegram, because the circulation
was increasing SO fast that the
Herald was becoming mere tender
to it, and reinstated old Plodders
of the Post.

Moro ArteSian Well Fish.

Last Summer We spoke OF a FISH

sunk on Rockers ranch. The we'll
is 200 feet deep and a 5-inch iron
pipe extends all the way from the
bottom to the tank. The little fish
"a speckled trout must have come
up through that pipe from the
depths. A few days ago Arthur

little fishes in the tank. There

| "A few People That tho Govern
nent Can1ot do. without.
It is useless to disguise the fact
that q revolution is about to take
place in the Mint. Democrats walk
back and forth before the old brown
building every day and gaze at it
with a hungry and expectant lock:
There is net > single Democrat in
the city who does not expect to
slide in there inside of thirty days,
and several prospective heads Of
departments have gone so far IS to
make out a list of those whom
they expect to appoint.
On the other hand, the insiders
are equally positive that almost q
clean sweep will be made.
A good many, however, expect to
stay. Said one to an APPEAL re-
porter, yesterday:
"Of course there1l be clean
sweep, except here and there some
really indispensable man. Now,
for instance, there's old -, he
struts around here like he was the
Mint Director of the United States,
but if all his kind were bundled
out of here the Government would
be ahead. Now [ have been here
50 long that / know all the run OF
the business, and | don't expect to
be fred right away. A nice old de-
partment this would be, without me
here.
The useless old party alluded to,
was next interviewed:
"Of course | am expecting great
changes. but few old live men
like myself will remain, There are
some things about Mint that you
can't trust green hands with. I'm
an old trusted employee Of the
Government, and they'll need me
to break in the new men. Even if
I we're discharged they'd be after
ne in day or so, as things would
run so badly that they would need
me here at once.
One of the sweeps said that no
one knew just how to get the
waste out of the sweeps: and he
guessed he'd have to stay a couple
of years and teach the rest the
business.
Il don't see why there's such ex-
element about Mint off &c, said
another, it's pretty wearing on a
man, the hard work and low
pay. Some times / have to sit and
read the newspapers four hours
day, for seven dollars, and If l was
out in some other business I'd be
doing half the work and making
twice the money. / believe I can
get bigger wages in San Francisco
than l can here, leastways l used
to do pretty we'll there twelve years
ago, before / went to work for the
Government.

TEE WHIST PARADOX


1t Il Solved BY n. Coin, the dry
Geeds man.
The question Of, how cana man
with an ace, king, queen aud jack,
in one suit, ace, king and queen IN
another and king in . third, backed
by the king, jack, nine, seven and
six of trumps, lead correctly and
yet not take a single trick? has
been solved BY NJ. Cshn as follows:
The four trumps lying just ever
the players hand, are On the left,
and are the ace, queen, ten and
eight with nine diamonds; on his
right are FIVE small trumps. He
leads = trump which is taken
on his left, and diamond led
trumped on his right. Another
trump is led through him, which
is similarly taken, and another
diamond led, which is also trumped
on his right. Another trump led
causes his last trump but one to
fall; the last is then extracted by
the player on his left. The player
has now no diamonds, that
being the suit of which he
holds only the ace and king. Then
the diamonds on the left are as
good as trumps, and take all the
remaining tricks.
The only way to get even now, is
to go up to COINS one price store
and purchase some Of those new
Spring goods for ladies'. in which
he always has the lead.

Isaac Richardson of this city claims :hat the gun found by Vim. Green,eai in the Santa Cruz Mountains Is not tine one with which Harry Love killed killep Joaquin Murietta. MT. Rich ardson says he was a resident Of Gala veras county when Joaquin and his pal, ,"Three-tingcred Jack" were pur- sued by the Rangers. He saw Love a few days after the pursuit of the out laws. Love and several members of the party brought with them the head of Joaquin and the hand of Three fingered Jack" Some one asked him who killed Joaquin. He replied that either Henderson or White killed him. He did not know which one, as both fired at him. When Joaquin was pur- sued he jumped over precipice, and they followed after him. Love ad- mitted that he killed "Three-fingered Jack" with his pistol. Love and Jack were on horseback, when Jack turned back in his saddle and fired at Love several times, one bullet grazing Loves ear. Love fired nine shots before he killed him. The bandit was hit scv- eral times, but the last bullet proved fatal and disfigured kis face so that they did not take his head. MT. Rich ardson says that the gun in Mir. Green leafs possession might have been owned by Love. but it Was not used in the pursuit of the outlaws. The head and hand were placed on exhibition a Murphy's Camp, and an admission fee of $1 was charged, which the citizens paid willingly, feeling grateful toward the Rangers for ridding the country of the outlaws.

 TUcsoN, A. T., Oct. B.
 Photographic advices received from Washington this morning brought the somewhat startling intelligence that the Administration had made a clean sweep of Arizona's supreme judiciary. The new appointeos are: Chief Jus ticc, John c. Shields, of Howell, Mich igan, age 3S years; Associate Justice, w. w. Port CT, of Santa Rosa, Califor- mia, age, 60, and Vim. II. Barnes. of Jacksonville, Illinois, age B. No cause has thus far been assigned for these removals, but it is generally be- lieved to be directly attributable to the result of the Ohio election and the at tendant pressure brought to bear upon the President by his party.
 As soon as it had become known that the two Associate Justices had been appointed, and before the news of the removal of Chief Justice How ard was received, meeting Of the Tucson bar was convened to take suit able action on the removal of Judge FitzSerald, of the First District. It. was unanimously decided to send the following telegram to the President and the Attorney-General:
 "Press dispatches announce the sus- pension of the two Associate Justices. The bar here unanimously request that the suspension Of Judge Fitzger- aid be recalled, as it will throw busi ness into great confusion and occasion great delay and expense. We don't know the cause of his suspension and greatly rogret it. Court is now in ses- sion and many important cases sub n,itted and briefs yet to Dc per scn;ed We ask that if he is suspended at all, the suspension may not take effect until January. Please telegraph answer. Signed, Alex. Campbell, Chairman Bar meeting; s. M Franklin, Secret ary.
 The suspension of Judge Fitzgerald is regarded as no less than calamity to the bar and people. His admin stration of Justice has been character ized by very marked ability as we'll as utmost impartiality. No Arizona Jus tice has ever enjoyed to a greater de- gree the confidence and esteem of the people than does Judge Fitzgerald, and the news of his suspension was as ur.pp ected as i: was disappointing.
