BURDETTE's PHILOSOPHY.

VIE CAN'T HAVE EVERYTHING WE SEX.
 "Yes, madam" said Trampoline, as he gratefully took from the outstretched hand Of the woman large, moist slab of pie, mottled like Mexican onyx, and embossed with heavy incrustations of lava, ''yes, I have seen better days, but just as l have seen better clothes; other people had 'em." He paused for her reply, but she bowed her head silently, and he, engulfing the pie with con- vulsive movement of the throttle, lifted his hands to heaven with an agonizing gesture and passing on, was never again seen no more.
 THE PATIENCE OF LAZINEss.
 A man ought to have some regard for the fitness of things, even when he quotes a proverb. But he hasn't. That's why it makes a householder so bowling mad when a paperhanger, who has been ten days paper ing three sides of hall bedroom, answers his reproof by saying that Rome wasn't built in day." It wasn't built by hired man, either The fact that it ever was built proves that

Burglary.
habitues.

One day last week a Mexican named Antonia Vega alias Diablo Verde was caught right in the act of burglarizing the Arizona Copper cOmpany's ware house.
 It seems that for sometime, how long it is impossible to determine, a regular system of pilfering has been pursued by an organized gang of thieves, one of whom is the above named. Sig Weisl, who has charge of the mercantile department, missed some rice and forthwith instituted a watch. MT. Weisl secreted himselfin the warehouse and about 12 m. a'clock he heard the thief breaking into the the house by springing the double doors, and as his grim diabolical majesty got inside and had pulled one boot of, Sig: became possessed with an uncomfortable desire too sneeze This was a feature of Sig's Vidocq act that interfereS with the carrying out to the end of what he wanted to do. which was to let the devil have full swing to exercise his satanic propen- sity. But that ker-chew- ker-chew-w, spoiled the fun. However, Sig nailed him and placed him in the custody of Constable Smith. He was examined before Justice Sias and bound over to await the action of the grand jury in the sum of S1,O00.
 Sheriff Whalen took him to the county jail at Solomonville. It is estimated that aDout 2,0OO pounds of rice had been stolen. Other articles it is presumed will subsequently be discovered gone.

 Clifton has the best and most artistic musician in Arizona. His name is Fraide Paez. His performance on the piano is great. Traviata, Trovadore Martha and all the operatic gems, he renders from memory.
 Dick Boyls is afflicted with infam- matory rheumatism. He is at the United States hotel under the treat ment of Dr. Linden; and, is receiving every attention that considerate friends can render.
 Sig Weisl made a crack shot with a siX-sheoter the other day. The part of the animal that goes into the hole last was shattered and scattered far and near.

MT. Chas. F. Hoff of Tucson, is here experimenting the putting in place of wind mill called an "Aermotor'' and its style of tower is called 'tilting'' The machinery and wheel are adjust ed to the end of 40 foot beam. Equi distant from either end of the beam is boxing through which bolt runs that acts as shaft which rests on top of the tower. The beam is upright when the mill is in action; and when 1t becomes necessary to lubricate the machinery, instead of going to the top ofthe tower, person can stay on the ground and by meana of a rope pull the wheel down to the ground. The beam is so balanced that a boy can handle it, so it is said. Knowing John Hovey's propensity for fun it would not be matter of surprise if he was found having Q game of sec saw with that boy of his some fine on the apparatus.

Is very liable to follow contact of the hands or face with what is known as poison ivy, especially in hot weather or if the body is perspiring freely. The trouble may subside for time, only to appear in aggravated form when opportunity offers. The great purifying powers of Hoods Sarsapa- rilla thoroughly eradicate every trace of poison from the blood. as the cures it has accomplished conclusively show. It also cures scrofula, salt rheum and all other affections arising from impure or poisoned blood.
