couple of weeks of pleasant wealth


er, which was quite warm, set the trees
to budding and the young bucks and
squaws to love-making. During the warm
days it was common sight to see the
gentle Pocahontases and loving Hia-
wathas sitting on the sidewalks making
love. Some would hold each others hand
and cast sleeps eyes at one another,
while in many instances the young buck
would be laying down, with his head in
the lap of his own true loved one, and she
would fondly run her fingers through his
hair and pei his vermillion- painted face.
As they walked by, observing the chill
dren of untutofcd mind it caused many
a wicked and unhappy bald headed bach
elor to heaye sigh and tear to appear
in the coner OF his eye as he thought of
his young days back in the States, and
the girl he left behind him, and sadly he
would wend his way to saloon and
wash the tear from his eye by swalling a
cocktail But this Indian love making
was abruptly terminated last Sabbath.
A cold wave swept down on us from the
chilly North, freezing up all the love

sidewalks, with blankets wrapped tightly
around them, and hugging the awning
posts.
For some cause the last crop of Utah
apples are very wormy. Very few apples
have been brought to this market lately
but what were infested with worms. We
are unprepared to state whether the
worms were placed in the apples by the
Lord as punishment to the people of
zion or to the wicked OF Phoebe. When
we see Utah huckster, standing around
all day and unable to dispose of his apples
at 4 cent per pound, it appears 20 us
the worms were sent as punishment to
the good Mormon; but on beholding an
ungodly of our town, walk up to buck
ster's wagon, stealthily appropriating
fruit that belonged not to him, then tax
ing bite of it, whereby securing a third
of a mouthful of fruit to two thirds Of a
mouthful of worms, and the outrageous
way he jumps around and curses the poor
Mormon after discovering he had been
indulging in worm lunch, we are slight.
ly inclined to believe that the worms
were placed in the fruit by the Lord for
the especial benefit of some our Phoebe
residents.
GETS His REWARD. Some three weeks
ago the collector of tithing for the Nor.
mon Church went to Spring Valley for
the purpose Of gathering the Lords share
of the spoils from the members of the
herd, and Frank Walker turned in to the
tithe-gatherers an old gray mare, which
was supposed to be the best horse the old
man had, as his Indebtedness to the Lord.
As reward for his faithfulness the Lord,
on last Sunday, sent to Walkers house a
little girl. Those who paid their tithing
got little girl and those who did not
pay their tithing got dose of cold
weather.
ALL in Phoebe who are in the habit Of
sending away for everything they need
to either San Francisco or the East, would
do well to first send for what they re-
quire to Morris & Levy, at Eureka, New
