Third and Fourth streets.
At 8 o'clock yesterday morning . COLI
ored woman reported to Officer Laubscher
that she had seen two men enter the store
through a window. She said that she
asked them where they were going. and
they replied that they slept there. OHicer
Mike Powers and Lieut.. Thorn were sum-
moned. and with the addition of Merchant
Patrolman Merrill, the force was sufficient
to cover all places Of escape. An entrance
was effected through an upper window
and the store searched from top to bot

discovered that q showcase had been
broken. but two watches and few razora
and some trinkets. such as burglars al

Mr.. H. B. Morris and W. Riggs
came in from few days. prospecting
at Goldfield.
Mr.. Fulton and son came up from
their ranch southeast of Mesa yester-
dav on business.
D. F. Rappleye came in from his
well on the desert twelve miles from
Mesa on the road to Goldfeld. They
are now down ITO feet and the indica-
tions are pretty good for water.
The Mesa Courier calls attention to
the fact that something should be done
to keep the sidewalks clear of lariated
horses. We call the attention of the
city dads to that very importa Mt matter.
Wonder what good it will do.
Why don't Mesa pattern little after
Phoenix and invite our red sisters to
don the full American garb or stay off
the streets. We have nevor seen nude

the times we have visited that city.

LIFE IN NICARAGUA.
The Little Republic Now in the Throes of
Revolution.

The Little Republic Now in the Throes of
Revolution.
The well-known Spanish writer,
Baroness Wilson, who has made care
full study of South America during her
travels through that country, has
authorized writer for Harper's Week
" to CLEAN for this little sketch from
her celebrated work America Y sus
Mujeres."
Nicaragua was discovered by Gil
Con alley de Avila, and for many years
formed one of the fifteen provinces of
Guatemala, while Leon was the CAPT
tai The city is of slight commercial
value nowadays, but in spite Of it's
ruined condition it still retains
semblance of it's ancient splendor.
The cathedral was built in 1850, and
this ancient structure is both beauti-
full and unique. President Sacaza re-
sides near the park, which he has i'm
proved and beautifed. And the latest
news from Nicaragua is that he is in
trenched in Leon with the government
Granada, Masaya and other towns.
The national palace in the capital is
a handsome building. Managua was
chosen for the capital on account of
the rivalry and jealousy between the
cities of Leon and Granada. The
houses are usually built one story high,
and are large and spacious, but very
simply furnished, as the people are
more fond of comfort than of style, and
the life they lead in Nicaragua is sim
pie and patriarchal. They are kind
hearted and hospitable; their purse is
always open to the needy, and their
hearts ready to sympathize with the
unfortunate; and they are invaluable
friends, but bitter enemies.
Jaguars, bear, black tigers and other
wild beasts abound in the forests,
while serpents, vipers, snakes and
other reptiles infest the woods Thou
sands of butterflies fiutter through the
air over the plains, and they are re-
markable for the gaudy and brilliant
colors of their wings. Nicaragua is
not exempt from poisonous scorpions,
tarantulas and hornets, as well as
other venomous insects which make
life burden to the traveller in tropical
chimes, and sometimes cause him to
forget the beauties of the tropical
scenery which so charm the eye.
Nicaragua has about 3O0,O 900 inhabit-
ants. 1t is rich in natural resources,
such as gold, silver, copper and quick
silver. The fragrant cedar wood is a
favorite article of expectation, as well
as indigo and coffee. But sugar cane
is the plant which fourishes most lux
uriantly in that country, and it attains
such growth that the sugar planta-
lions often resemble woods, the stalks
are so thick and large.
There are seven universities or col
leges, and medical and law schools
both in Leon and Granada.
President Sacaza, who has Just re-
signed is about fifty years DID, and he
has firm will of his own; is man OF
decided character, who will brook nc
opposition, although in private life he
is affable and mild. He is very fond OF
his wife, so much so that they still ap-
pear to be in their honeymoon
although they have been married many
years.
Nicaragua attained, its independence
and emancipated itself from Spanish
rule in 1921, and the anniversary Of
that event is always celebrated on the
18th of September with great rejoic
