The Road Agent Honored the Pass.

From the San Francisco Call.
Iom Fitch, Ex-Governor Zulick and Judge
fitzgerald met yesterday in the corridor of
the Palace Hotel, and renewed an acquaintance
that was begun when all three were prominent
In the politics Of Arizona. When Fitch was To-
Gated at Prescott in the practice Of the law the
northern and central portions of the territory
were overrun by rowing bands of desperadoes.
chlet among whom were large number OF
road agents, who infested the stage lines and
proved upon the passengers. From time to
Time they were apprehended and brought up
ioi 'isI' ana Fitch was almost invariably re-
tanned for the defense. In nearly ever instance
he succeeded in clearing them. and in their
eyes soon grew to be quite a hero. II CHANGED
that In the fall Of 81 an Englishman dropped
into Prescott on his way to Phoenix, and while
lingering in the former place made the ac-
quaintance of Fitch, with whom he was soon
upon the most friendly terms Before leaving
by stage for his destination stories of the ex-
Ploits OF the road agents reached his ears and,
becoming alarmed, he preached the subiec. to
Fitch in conversation.
Pretty bad customers lust at this time. ~
said the latter with great earnestness, '.but I
will give you safe conduct to Phoenix in the
shape OF written pass
The Englishman jumped at the idea and half
IN jest the pass was given. On the following
day the bearer Of the safe conduc, took his
Ic"' III VIC soutu-DOunQ cOach, ana when Black
Canon was reached five masked men stepped
into the road and with cooked Wincbesters
ordered the driver to stop. No time was lost in
refining In the horses and the passengers were
ordered to alight. With hands ND they were
compelled to stand in a row and be searched,
their valuables being taken from them indis-
criminately. When the Englishman was reached
he said to the man who was relieving the pas
sengers: II say, old fellow, l ave pass in INV
pocket. you know, pass from Mr.. Fitch
The = you haven' calculated the road
agent. where is it?''
The tourists hands started in the direction
OF his pocket, but were stopped midway by a
sharp I'M JUNCTION to keep them aloft.
Now keep your mouth shut" he was told
bluntly, land just motion with your head the
whereabouts OF that pass or I'll blow you in to
kingdom come"
Thoroughly frightened he indicated the left
hand pocket Of his coat and the pass was
dragged to light CHANGING at it to assure him
self that the signature was genuine, the robber
roughly ordered the bearer to stand aside. and
informed him that if he would make no demon
stration he would not be molested. He obeyed
with alacrity and not a cent was taken from
him. After emptying the mail bag and express
box and taking everything Of value from the
other passengers the robbers loaded them all
into the stage and ordered the driver to hurry
on to the next town. When they reached
Phoenix the Englishman was the only indi-
vidual on the stage who had a cent of money
or an article Of jewelry left upon his person

then prevalent, but fair woman revolted at the
result
Now the trousers of the future are to be
purely vomans garments. not those designed
by and for men, cut down and adapted. The
frouser idea, under the magic of woman's
Imagination and pOesy. wrought out by her
def and dainty fingers, shall be as far removed
from Its present prOssic expression are the
heavens from the earth. as womans cleverness
frcm mans stupidity. Every woman will in
terpret II according to her owl, fancy. and there
will be variety and beauty and indiv duality in
stead Of homely repetition IN rough worsteds
cut and stitched by the thousand in precisely
the same fashion
TEE ORIGINAL OWNERSHIP.
Every advanced woman knows that trousers
originally belonged TO her sex, and that skirts
were worn BY her subject, man, in primitive
times But woman superiority wrought her
ruin. for, pampered and served by her mascu-
line interiors. she grew luxurious in her tastes
frail and delicate until finally she lost ner pres
tige and stamina and submitted to the garment
before which you must bow your head
you don il. The trousers idea for women
will be enriched by all the ancient splendor
OF design and ornament peculiar to it before it
was degraded by man. IL will be brought out
in exquisite material. resplendent with dazzling
braidlngs and brolderies. IL will be frilled and
futed and paniered and pulled. 1t will take on
WOndrOu- grace IN cut and great shapeliness of
mt IL will be draped and hOunced and shirred
and tucked 1t will be sdbiimized idealized
immortaliZed-in short. womanized.
There will be girls in the future as there are
now of the Elizabeth stuart Phelps order, who
will not believe in decollete gowns and will be
shocked at piano legs that are not done up in
Pantslets, who will cling to the uncommunica-
i've gowns somewhat after the antique Grecian
order.
Why is il that . real pretty woman has so
much more generous and liberal ideas about
mOdssty than one to whom nature has bean
ehary with charms? Probably 1t is through the
divine arrangement of q wise Providence that
most Of the women who disbelieve in exposing
their shoulders or legs spare the world the
revelation And their dress will be of white
s~mlte or some other ghostly poetieal web
brOidered very dellcately about all its borders
with gold, and the precious creatures who adopt
IL will stand about IN the new regime in stained
glass attitudes, with uplifted brows and panied

FARMERS ATTENTION.
THE ECONOMY WAGON SPRING


The best Spring in the world.
Eight hundred springs were sold in
1887 from September to December,
and all who bought are more than
pleased with them.
It is the most durable spring
made, the coils are of the best
.crucible steel and the entire spring
is put up of the very best material
and will last for years.
You have only to try the springs
to convince you Of their value
They will save your wagon and
your horses, and in hauling grain,
fruits, vegetables, and all the pro-
ducts that farmers haul going to
or coming from market with or
without load, you and your family
will ride as easy and comfortable as
in buggy or carriage; they are
the only wagon spring that will
ride easy without load or with a
load. We want you to put a set on
your wagon and try them, and they
will speak for themselves. Ad-
dress all communications to
