"BIG BURNS" ARRESTED. San Francisco ( hronicle.


 The police are continuing their good work Tn the endeavor to drlve the "lover" class and vagrants from the streets, and last night officer Iohnstone, who has been especially active in this work, arrested the notorious "Big Burns" and put him on the vagrant list at the City prison.
 "I will have bail in minute," he said to desk sergeant Lindhelmer, land you needn't lock me up."
 "Oh, needn't wei" answered Lind heimer pleasantly, "Well we will just the same. Here Keys, put the vag in the hole in the wall.
 Big Burns" grew very excited at this and declared that it was an outrage that gentleman of his standing should be so treated. When threatened with a dark cell he quieted down and remained in cell No. much to his disgust, until baled out. He had but short time to wait, for in little while Frank Todd, a hokey-pokey sharp, who was recently ar. rested in the gambling raids, rushed to the prison gates and asked admittance. He too was dumbfounded when he learned that his friend, the honorable Big Burns, had been thrown into cell. This was something unhsard of before with anyone who had "pull," and Todd was as indignant as surprised. He put up the necessary SI5o cash bond; the porlly Burns was led out of the dungeon, and the two departed.
 Burns, whose full name is George F.. Burns, is a well-known character. He has been driven out of the city repeat edly and bears hard reputation wilhthe police. At one time he was quite promi. nent as Democratic politician, and even now is valuable to do very dirty work for the machine and Boss Buckley. About two months ago, in company with severa other fellows of his ilk. got into trouble at Central Park at the Wild West show, and the police made it so warm for him that he had to leave the city again. A the Sacramento election he was arrested for repeating and illegal voting, but es- capped punishment. He has been in jail at Los Angeles for crooked work and is known over the State as "bunko steerer' and card sharp.

Quite number of the Arizona news papers are bowling over the removal of Dr. Mahoney as resident physician of the Territorial Insane Asylum, and the appointment of California physician, Dr. Titus, in his stead. The cry is as senseless as the one voiced nearly 1000 years ago, when the mob shouted, "Crucify him cruelty him" With all due respect to Dr. Mahoney, who, so far as the EPITAPH knows, is respecta- ble, general practitioner of medicine, he has had no special training in the treat ment of the insane, branch of medicine to which but little attention is given in the schoos S, and which can only be learned by wears of experience. That Dr. Titus has had this training no one familiar with the gentleman's history can deny. More than twenty years ago the doctor was the assistant resident phy,i- clan of the California State Insane Asylum, and has almost uninlerruptedly since been connected with some public or private in, ane asylum in the golden state. He is particularly we'll qualified from experience for the arduous duties of the posiion-for no duty can be more so if faithfully performed-and the un- fortunate insane of the Territory have good cause to congratulate themselves that op him devolves their care.

MEMORIAL DAY,


 Following is the beautiful poem writ ten by Mrs. Ward Priest and read by A. L. Grow at Schieffelin Hall at the clos. ing exercises of Memorial Day:
 SOLDIER TO HIS COMRADES. Comrades, o my comrades, with steady march and
 slow, The years going one by one; and we but watch The light dim in many an eye, the dark hair turned
 to gray, And sad Decembers step no more keeps pace with
 blooming May; But underneath the frost of years each heart beats
 true and warm, As when we altogether faced the battles gathering
 storm.
 Comrades, o my comrades in many trusty fight. No more the anguish and the pain are ours of wars
 long night;
 No more we turn with broken hearts and sorrow
 laden eyes.
 To say farewell to those we hold most dear beneath
 the skys; For OCT nd of peace, and love, and brotherhood
 and light, The dove of peace with stainless breast Autters he,
 wings of white.
 Comrades, O, my comrades, through all the land to day. The living soldiers meet to mourn the dead ones passed away, With reverence we bend the knee above their sacred dust
 The noble hearts that fought so we'll and bravey for trust,
 weep truest heart above those graves more honoree every year
 Wherever home, and life, and love, and liberty ar, Comrades. c. my comrades, low lying in the tomb, To-day the breath of spring will come with ever, wreath of bloom,
 On every soldiers grave today some gentle hand will With tender thought and love the blossoms the May
 And when we each of us shall go to join the sen train, Some loving hand will find our graves after thu winters rain. Comrades, o, my comrades beneath a southern six, | In unmarked graves our unknown dead in rest un broken lie; No human love may reach them there within tn trembling grass,
 But the golden sunbeams fingers long, fingers ant will not pass.
 Those narrow homes unreached by man, by God love not forgot,
 For the humble wild flower mods and smiles above tha sacred spot.
 Comrades, o, my comrades, when my last drum shal beat, And am lying cold and low, in slumber deep an sweet,
 On such day as this I'd have some brother soldie Place OCT my silent breast wrath of red, white an blue.
 So with the colors on my heart, I've worn in many | fight,
 I'd carry them. this lfe's long march OCT, into tn
 fields of light

Before another issue of the EPITAPH the National Democratic party will have met in St. Louis and nominated Grover Cleveland for president. It is sad that Grover does not want to run again, but is driven into it by the importunities of his wife, whose head has been turned by the adulation showered upon her in her position as "hr.t lady of the land" The result in November next will probably convince Frankie" that her husband is a more astute politician than herself.

Some two or three months ago Nelson Morris passed over the A. &. P. road in special car for California, ostensibly for pleasure, but from the number of refrlg- orator cars now passing west with the name of Nelson Morris & Co.,, dealers Tn dressed beef, Chicago, thereon, he must have combined little business with pleasure and found large sale for the products of his firm in the "boom State" Every pound of Chicago beef sold in Southern California lessens the demand for Arizona beet in that quarter, and it will be but short time until Arizona cattle will be shipp d to E Eastern markets and the dressed beef returned here and to Chicago.

A GREAT RoPING CONTEST.

One of the most exciting exhibitions with the lariat and the roping of wild steers was held on the I7th instant at Austin, Texas, during the exercises at tending the dedication of the new Capi- tol building. The press dispatches give the following account of the contest:
 One of the most interesting exhibitions with which the board of managers have favored the public was the cowboy con- test, which was placed during Thursday morning. Wild cattle were penned and permitted to emerge through narrow chute one at time. The rider in ordi- nary working dress, sat on his horse near by. Ills laso was tied to his saddle and he was not permitted to place hand on it until the animal had obrained fair start and the judges gave the word "go." Watches were kept upon the time which each man consumed inlasso throwing and jismoun,ing and tying his steer. The horsemanship was of the highest class, and some of the animals ridden were trained thoroughly. Twenty cowmen paid SIo each for the privilege of fcontest- ing. The prlzes offered were SI5o to first; SIoo to second; $50 to third and $2s to fourth. The judges were: A. L. Ma,lock, of the Panhandle; Dock Day, of Austin; Ike Pryor, of Austin; Joe Davis, of Dayton, Texas; Jim Taylor, of Denver Colo, and Col. Winfield Scott, of Cobra do City.
 Some of the time made was remark able considering each steer had field of 100 acres in which to run. Following is the detailed score: Joe Rogers, I:s2; C.. T. Ward, I:oSX; [. E. Parker, 2:Io; J. F Priest, o:47; Joe Brousard, I:o8; T. ]. Chalvers, I:33; Robert Nichols, I:I6; A |. B. Moore, 2:26H; R. E. Barker, I:s4; w. Brown, 1854; Iond Burns, I:37H; F. B. Rrocker, I:3o; E. M. Barker, I:4o; ]. J. Barker I:3I; Ben Johnson, I:4I; s. C. Lewis, I:o3; L. w. Barker, 2.I2; T. P. Blocker, o:s2; (, w. Polk, I:39: J. L. Grayson, I:76. F. Priest of Travis county; s. C. Lewis of Mccullough county and Joe Brousari of Orange County, and T. P. Blocker of Travis county took the money. Then these four winners contested for the entire entry amounting to S2oo. One hundred and fifty to first and fifty to second. Priest and Brousard won in I:IoK and II7K respectively. Blocxer's and Lewis time was I:45 and 1884. Brousard is member of the Ist Regiment band, at tached to the Orange rifles, and rode in his regimentals. To the northern visitors, and in fact to many visitors from the south, the daring horsemanship and wonderful expe,tness of the cowboys was a revelation. They testified to their ap' prscia,ion by the widest kind of yelling chucking hats in the air and other dem. onstrations. Since Travis county, ol which Austin is the seat, has taken the first two pr,zes, much jubilancy has resul' ted. Williamson county has offered tc back four of it's men against any four in the state, no class of COW puncher: barred. It is probable that a match vii
 be arranged to be ridden before the close of the week. Big money will bs wagered on the result, as nearly all the men in Thursdays contest are supplied with this worlds goods,
