Burglary.

Some time during Thursday night, probably between eleven and twelve, a thief obtained entrance to Palmer Seamansjewelry establishment though a sky-light He attempted to lower him. self to the floor by means of a piece of old garden hose, but it broke and he fell, striking box in his descent, smashing a valuable clock and mak- ing considerable noise, which was heard in adjoining houses, but no at tention was paid to it. On opening his store yesterday morning MT Seamans discovered that he had been robbed, and an examination revealed the fact that a number of watches that had been left for repair had been taken, and also 2 large amount of gold lewelry. The thief is evidently an exert, as he only took genuine goods, leaving the plated articles se- verely alone. He came prepared to break into the safe, as d burglar ratchet drill was found on the floor he having evidently been frightened away before having an opportunity to use it. He left the store by prying the lock of the back door. It was : bold piece Of work, as 2 bright lght is left burning in the store all night and large plate glass door allows { full view of the interior Of the store to any one passing by. There is nt clew to the identity of the robber.- Epitaph.

An Unequaled Land.

A traveller truly remarked that Il man has only one lung the soft balmy to fill it is cheap at any price This is just the kind of air we have in southern Arizona; here are no fogs, no malaria, no pestilential diseases. Here is q climate that for nine months in the year is far more attractive than any portion of California; the man with one lung can find just the kind of air to initiate it with to give strength and yigor to his frame and such heart mess to his constitution as will pro- long his earthly pilgrimage in health, wealth and happiness during the al lotted span of life.
 Our lands have not yet come with in tue grasp of the speculator. They can be bought at reasonable prices :; at bargains that bring them within the reach of moderate means, at about one-fanrth the intrinsic value of the soil.
 The beautiful scenery of southern California is also made to form D fac tor in the value of their land In the 0lld anu Ddlt liNGI NdllCSS W6 Cuil boast of our broad acres covered with the richest growth of vines and trees, refreshing fields throughout all the months of the year.
 Our valley, circled by mountain ranges, rising higher and higher, un- til in the distance their summits blend with the "blue empyrian ;" and our far stretching fields of orchards, grove, vineyard, grain and alfalfa form a charming picture.
 We ask honest settlers to come among us, buy lands, make homes, and help to restore this country to that prosperity which existed in ages past, when, according 10 the antiquar- ian, the valley of the Salt river alone contained population of two hun dFed and fifty thousand people, sup porting themselves by agricultural pursuits. We invite capital to inspect our opportunities for profitable invest ment, to assist us in building canals in constructing railroads, in creating water storage reservoirs, in boring ar tesian wells, in building up town and country and hastening the time when our desert shall blossom and bloom Gazette.

Who He Is.

Judge Murat MatersQn, who IS just now posing in New York city as q five times millionaire. and who, with a young lady, was arrested for a shooting scrdpe, is an old Arizonian He was located short time in Tucson in 1877, when he practiced law, and from here he went to Prescott where he had ? successful practice for some time. He also embarked in the newspaper business, and afterwards lost his twin children which drove hin insane frQm grief and for six months he was placed under restraint until his reason was restored He went to Deming several yeaIs ago, where he practiced law and speculated in mines. Recently he has been credited with having made some money in mines in Old Mexico.
 lis gFesen: Hnfortunate trouble is no doubt greatly exaggerated, as IS also his wealth. Judge Materson has a very excellent wife and family who deserve the sympathy of the commun- ity on account of the present scandal which has been flashed broadcast throughout the land. If the state n.ents Which come through the asso- oiated press be true, the only reason able grounds for the explanation oI Judge MastersOn's conduct must be that he is again the victim of insanity

advance. II Is only necessary In this
connection 10 mention Daniel Manning,
secretary Of tho treasury. The senate,
being for the most part monOpollBta and
bankers themselves, could be relied upon
not 10 oppose the renewal Of Tho charters
for the national banks. When the lntek-
ests Of any one Of the great mDhopOlles
ls endangered, II will be found that they
are all united In one big trust Tor mutual
protection. In the house, also, many
were already In the ring, and enough
others could be bought 10 make sure OF
safe majority. The tariff agitation was
stirred 10 red heat TO set the members Of
the house, 90 we'll as their constituents,
against each other, 10 keep their minds
diverted, while that system Of legallzed
(eHploItatlon they call II now was per.
petuated indefinitely The national bank
charters were renewed almost without
opposition Had Grover Cleveland been
true statesman, O man Of the people,
he had then the opportunity Of making
himself, historically, the greatest man OF
the century. But he was not made OF
that kind Of stuff Recently published
correspondence In the New York papers
shows him in his true light II will be
found that his luck forsook him on the
day he signed the bill renewing the char
ters Of the national banks. He had
served the purpose for which he was
raised to the position, andour democratic
friends need not hatter themselves that
Grover will ever again be allowed to lead
them--by tho nose. Another interest
was soon to be at stake, and another man
was needed at the white house. Grover
was induced TO issue his famous free wool
message to congress, TO renew the tariff
agitation by his reduction OF tariff and
the treasury surplus, and his free trade
speeches. Both houses Of congress
originated tariff bills, the Associated
Press talked nothing but tariff, and the
people we're thusagaln diverted from the
new object in view When the noml-
mating convention came around Grover
was again put forward; but his luck had
forsaken him. Wall street had no further
use for him. He was relegSted to private
life.
The republicans were now made TO
believe that they had elected their man.
Here, too, would like to ask every
thinking, reading republican II Benjamin
Harrison would have been their choice II
the selection had been lettto themP The
whole canvass and campaign Of the re-
publican party was made solely on pro-
lection and Benjamin Harrison's ances-
tors. We heard more Of his grandfather
than Of him. He was induced to make
some strong protection speeches and to
talk civil service reform. That and the
gold Of the Pacific railroads elected him
to the presidency. For eighteen years
previous TO his nomination he was known
only as prominent Pacific railroad at
torney II iswell known that the Pacific
railroads have borrowed immense sums
from the government Bonds for some
S346,OOO,OOO Of interest money alone will
become due within the next few years.
AS stated In my last letter to the Jour

You tell him n joke you relied on as new
He smiles in wearisome way.
From a comedy new you recite him bit,
He says he saw that at the play.
You give him a story that never yet failed
To set all who heard in roar:
He mods half approval and turns him away,
And murmers, "I've heard it before"
The girl whom you WOO in your tenderest tone,
Whose heart you are seeking to gain,
Listens coidly to all you may have to protest
Seeming only to wish you'd refrain.
You seek for some phrase not totally trite
And cen the thesaurus explore,
It's oil OF no use. and you bid her good bye
You see she has heard it before
How sad it must be to go onward like this
With nothing on earth to enjoy,
And never make any one happy yourself,
And only find things to annoy

'Tis n dry, empty she'll and no more;
Alas! he is much to be pitie,, lot blamed

Directly in front of where she stands
