She Was Sensible.

A gentleman passing through one of the blacksmith shops in town, a few days since, found an intelligent looking lady seated in the center of the shop working a cluster of clover blossoms on a velvet ground. She wore a peaceful smile, and seemed wholly unconscious of the terrible din that filled the building.
 "Docsn't the pounding disturb you?" inquired the gentleman, stoop- ing over the lady.
 "Oh, no" she replld, smilingly.
 "Do you enjoy it1'
 "Yes, sir"
 "Do you often come here p
 "Regularly three times a week."
 'i don't see what there is about this establishment to attract person that often," said the gentleman.
 "Well, you see, the physician says l must avoid anything that will affect my nerves; and, as at this hour, three days in week, my sister takes a les son on the piano, I come here where 1t IS comparatively quiet"

 "I-Tm all right" protested the bovine guardian.
 "No, you are not" sad the physi- clan, earnestly; "your pulse is over one hundred, and in less than two minutes you will be in cold sweat. You take my advice and go home. "
 "I-I can't go home; I'm resolved to ask old Bluffkins for his daughter tonight or perish miserably in the attempt. You are wrong about your diagnosis. have only been taking a little "encouragement" at the Frisco saloon."

official and allowing "generous" sub
 sidies of money on the slightest pre- text, to cut down on the last day oi the session the insignificant bills oi the newspaper publishers to a figure which would not begin to cover ex- penses. Some of the members, not having been complimented by the press to the extent their egotism de- handed, are doubtless displeased with newspapers, and when they sigh for further qualification of their ambition they will doubtless wish that newspa- pers had been abolished before the day of their birth. Time sets all things even, and the newspapers will live in the face of the spitework Of some petty political minds.

"Dein Dose CullOred TrOops."

The Prescott Courier of the 10th instant says: Military posts in Arizona will very soon be occupied by black troops whose officers are white men. While our people do not entirely relish the change, the, will have to put up with it. In early times we had companies of Mcxicans and found no trouble in getting along with them. They did good service against the Indians and spent their money rather freely. Later still, companies of Indians were organized by General Crook, and they rendered valuable assistance in helping to put down the common enemy. Blacks, we have heard, have not met with much success in fighting Indians, Be that as il may, Indians are now quiet, and should they ever again break out General Crook, should he remain here, would quickly quell them, even with black troops.

They Welcomed Him.

He arrived home from Prescott a day or two ago. He hadn't the least idea that his fellow-citizens would turn out to welcome him, and his sur prise can therefore be imagined when he reached the depot to hear hurrah and to see thirty or forty different persons pressing forward to shake hands.
 "My dear fellowtownsmen, I-I," " he began as he removed his hat, but he suddenly restored it to his head and made a rush for home. They were all bill collectors and he wasn't { loaded.

The Late Unpleasantness at Springer.


 A dispatch from Springer. N. M. , dated March 18th, says: By order of
 President Cleveland, detachment of the Tenth infantry arrived this after noon and escorted to Las Vegas for safe-keeping the beselged officers, Lee, Kimberly and Hackenbaugh, slayers of the three desperadoes, Rogers, Curry and Red River Tom Tn their attack on the officers of the jail on Monday last. While many of the cowboy avengers left town, many re- mained determined to avenge the death of their comrades as soon as the officers made their appearance. Of this the latter were advised, hence the request of the governor for a military escort out of town. On the arrival of the train the inhabitants hocked to the house-tops and the greatest excitement prevailed, as it was expected an attack would be made on the soldiers and an attempt made to hang the officers. No demon stration was made, however, and the train arrived in Las Vegas without molestation. Curry is the desperado who killed Porter, the actor, some years ago at Marshall, Texas, while the latter was trying to shield some ladies from insult.
