TOLD HIM S0.-Three months ago, wheu
o rulr, man who bad stuck type Tor
lhirty-fve cents per 900 ems on u Lis'e
land paper, and had knocked OH because
he couldn't agree with the editorial policy
of the paper. came out here to establish a
plant and grow wool on his back, we sat
down and talked to him like brother.
There's nothing mean about us, We don't
want the earth. We have a great weekly
newspaper, butcher shop, grocery, sad
dlery. shoe shop, millinery store and sig
nal service bureau all under one roof and
we don't care how many other enterprises
are established in this wild west.
This young man planned to start a
weekly over at Pedro Valley, and we
warned him to pitch into the car OF Rus
STA and go light on the boys at home
That's the safe policy while learning to
shoot right and left handed. He didn't
seem to take kindly TO our advice, and our
last words, as we lent him sixteen letters
out of font of job type, were to prepare
for the up-hills and down-hills of the here
after. The sequel proves that we were cor.
rect. He issued one edition, jabbed his
home subscribers, and now he sleeps in lot
No. Il, section 81 of Towers subdivision
of the 1000 acre tract. He died victim to
the climate, assisted by willing hands.
Took A WALE.-Any particular lack of
interest on our editorial page this week
must be laid to little incident which &C.
Cured Tuesday forenoon. A cross eyed
pressman, who was working his way from
San Francisco to Boston to see hi" mother
die, had put in a couple Of weeks with us
as literary editor. He seemed Il prudent.
level headed fellow, and we passed in his
copy without reading it. What did he do
but ring in little item to the effect that
four aces always beat royal flush, no mat
ter what old liar held to the contrary. Col
johnson, who is Arizona authority on
poker, came around to have look at our
man and ask where and how we had capt.
ured him, and ne had scarcely stepped in
side the Office when the pressman lost his
nerve and began to shoot.
What was the colOnel's gain was our
loss. We had q finger split by a bullet, the
devil got rake across the skull, and the
foreman now carries his arm in sling
The colonel, it is needless to say, was un
touched When youngman got through
shooting at everybody except the man he
wanted to hit we assisted to take him out,
head him for the cactus plantation and
start him off. He won't see his mother die
not if he keeps on in that direction. Ten
derfoots sailing in this direction should
bear in mind that our customs, ways and
habits are somewhat different from those
of Boston and New York, and on arriving
in this locality they should expect to be ad
vised and posted by citizens who can ex
hibit nine graves in their private burying
grounds. Detroit Free Press.

Did Not Trouble Him.

When Sam Jones was preaching in q
western town some time ago he was mn
noyed by young man who was whisper.
ing to his girl. Finally the preacher could
stand the interruption no longer, so he
looked straight at the young man and said:
81 will pause until the young man in the
back of the room gets through talking"
The silence was intense, and every eye
was on the young man, who was still
Whispering to his girl. He had been so
busy that he had not caught the preach
er's censure. Mr.. Jones repeated the re-
mark, and this time the young man heard
him. Not an instant did he hesitate, but
he Immediately tried to square himself.
While every one was watching him he
looked squarely at the preacher and said:

bothering me. Yankee Blade.

"He rode fallacious horse" A girl in
the course of an essay on the use of pict

be of very little USE" In the certificate
examination second year student wrote,
"Constantnople was formerly not belong

the Turks generally are, but since it has
belonged to us it has frightened up, and is
now the key to the Black Sea" Another

The injured man is about twenty years old
and was driver of one of the wagons carrying
supplies for the cavalrymen. There was hole
over his eve and the bullet had passed beneath
his scalp and out at the back of his head almost
opposite where it entered.
When he reached here he was partly uncon-

he was injured. but yesterday he was much
better and told how the affair happened He
said that he had charge of one wagon and he
was shot b. another driver. Friday, he says.
the other driver came to him and wanted bis
horses. but he told him that he would have to
produce written order for them or he could
not get them.

horses over angered the other man, who
assaulted him with stone and was about to

ONLY A BABY CARRIAGE
Blu. Pushed by Celestials 1t Created . Sem
sstion at Dupont Circle.


Passersby in the neighborhood Of Dupont
Circle were Friday afternoon last attracted by
moving crowd vending its way through the
park toward Stewart Castle, the residence Of
the Chinese legation. and upon closer approach
it was discovered that the primal cause OF all
this excitement was nothing more than the aP-
pearance of q group of celestials, in the midst
of which was a baby carriage pushed by one OF
the party. The carriage was an ordinary one
of straw pattern, with soft cushioned seat
such as one meets every day on the streets
and in the parks, the only distinguishing
mark OF this particular one being q large
bright red umbrella top to protect the baby &C.
cupant froIa tie glare of the suns rays.
The pecuiiarity Of the proceeding was the
fact that the vehicle was empty. As the cor
tege hurriedly headed their way for the castle
and IN rather undignifed haste beat quick
retreat within the projecting privacy of the
mclosure. where the carriage and party disap-
peared within the entrance of the man.
sion. II required but little Imagination to divine
the true situation at glance and realize that
the cause Of so much commotion was moth
ing more startling than the fact of the minister
having purchased a necessary adjunct to the
comfort and convenience of the public appear
ing of his infant daughter. whose period of
probation within the sacred precincts of the
maternal chamber is now drawing to close.
In fact the thirty days required by custom for
the seclusion of q newly born infant in the
orient legally expired or the oath instant, and
it is fair to expec. TO see the diminutive object
OF So much recent gossip brought forth for an
airing upon any bright day Of the present
week.
