CAMELS IN ARIZONA.
Some "Reminiscences Penned by
 Capt. Wm. H. Hardy.

Some "Reminiscences Penned by
 Capt. Vim. H. Hardy.
 To the E iitor of THE REPUBLICANS:
 WHITE HILLS, Ariz, March 23.-Allow me to correct an article that appeared in THE REPUBLICAN Lof the 18th inst, headed Wild Camels." You say the camels were imported some twenty years since. The only camels that I ever heard of being imported by the United States was imported in 1857. 1 think 1t was in 1857. It was during James Buchanan's administration that an importation was landed in Texas. In 1857 Lieutenant Beal moved a band of these camels from Galveston to California. With these camels there was imported or employed, two men that went by the name of Greek George, afterward made notorious by the be- traying of Vasquez, the bandit near Los Angeles.
 The otber man was Turk by the name of Hi Jolly. The latter man l met in Kingman last August. He is yet Tn the territory.
 In 1863 the Turk was employed to carry the mail on camels from Fort Mohave to Drumm barracks on these cameIs. The last trip made with camels was made in December 1863. 1 heard no complaint about the camePs feet getting sore; the trouble was the camels would frighten stock. You ought to see our old worn out pack mules and team mules when we met the camels. Whew! Their heads and tails were up, although they were tired and worn out on the sandy desert. Near Soda lake it did not take three minutes for every mule to clear itself from saddle and harness, and fl there ever was whistling, snorting and pranc- ing notwithstanding the loud cry of teamsters and herders we had it then. The cook was out the pork which was strung out for miles. The wagons were upset, and if really described matters as we founG then half hour after the meeting, would say the whole train was badly demoralzed and broken up. IL took two days to patch up and gather up stock,
 The most Of this band of camels was sold to go to Nevada and was used to pack salt to Virginia City. They were finally ruled off of this road for the reason of frightening stock. Some of the band were turned loose in Nevada and some of them were sold to go to Yuma, and l think that portion ot the herd really undertook to return to Asia. For ten years, from 1870 to 1880 or nearly all of this time they ranged near this place and when they did water they found water along the west side of the Cerbat range of mountains between this place and Mineral park. Whether this band of five was killed off or moved on toward Asia or went south am not able to state. It has been over ten years since have heard of them in this vicinity. It is evident that the camel business in the United States is fail ure. The Americans prefer railroad across the desert to train of camels.
 By the way, we are having a very fine and heavy rain and the cattle and horses will fare well next summer. At the present time it rains and pours down and we have prospect of.a flood. H.

MURDERERS SENTENCED.
At the Last Moment They Weaken
 and Confess.


 SANTA BARBARA, Cal, March 2S.-[As- sociatedPress. l--This afternoon Henry Mclaughlin and Jerry Desmond alias John Ward pleaded guilty to the charge of murder and both were sentenced by Judge Cope to life imprisonment at san Quentin. Mclaughlin and Desmond were arrested on February l, for the murder of Alfred Hore, station agent of the Pacific Coast railroad company at Los Olives, this county.
 The evidence, though circumstantial. pointed strongly to the two men and there was little doubt of their guilt. Today they decided after consultation with their attorney to plead guilty. Mclaughlin by sworn statement in court testified that he was the one who did the shooting, but claimed that it was accidental. The court decided that both were guilty of murder in the sec ond degree and sentenced them as stated.
 The murder was committed on the night of January 3l. Hore was alone in the office between and 8 o'clock when two men entered. Their faces were hidden by masks made out of grain sacks. Hore was ordered to throw up his hands, but instead started towards the telegraph instrument. One of the rob- bers shot him at once. Death resulted few hours later. The murderers were captured by Sheriff Broughton's posse the next night.

IT IS HER NOSE THAT SUFFERS.
While Man Goes Along Trying to
 Warm Ills Ears.

While Man GocS Along irving to
 Warm His Ears.
 Speaking of cold weather, I have discovered that the cold affects men and women differently" says writer in the New York Herald. "I mean that despite the fact that both sexes are of the human kind they have not the same vulnerable points for Jack Frost to nip.
 "You may have noticed as l have, that woman when outdoors in a cold day goes along apparently comfortable except for her nose. She covers it with her mittened or gloved hand, or if she is very nice she holds her handkerchief up in front of it.
 Ut is the tip of her nose that the cold takes hold of and won't let go Her checks and her chin never seem to suffer, but her nose always gets red and cold and frostbitten.
 'I believe that physicians say the vulnerability of the feminine nose is caused by corsets, or rather by the lacing which the wearing of corsets i'm plies. At any rate it forces the blood to the nose and makes red noses as we'll as tender noses.
 And the only moral can see in it is that if the girls would shed their corsets they might not in course of time be forced to the undignifled proceeding of holding on to their noses.
 ''Now, with man it touches him on the ears. There's where man feels the cold first. It's his ears that jingle when the mercury slips down toward the zero notch; it's his ears that freeze when he stays out in the winter weather long enough"

LAWLER'S HARD FATE.
He Revealed Himself to Bissell an
 Lost Ills Chance.

ne HeVealeu f1ltnS9lT 10 biSSSli ana Lost Ills Chance.
 WASHINGTON, March 28.-I Associated Press. .l-Tne indifference with which MT. Cleveland regards petitions is ilustrat ed in the case of the Chicago postmas- tership contest. It is said to be set tied thing that ex-RepresentatIve Frank Lawler is not to get the office because neither Mir. Cleveland nor Mir. Bissel are favorably impressed by him. All the members of the house who served with him have a friendly feeling for Lawler, as has nealry every one who knows him, but it is somewhat such q feeling as many have for Tim Campbell of New York. 1t does not carry with it very high appreciation of his capacity and learning.
 It was with little difficulty that Law Ter secnred the names of about sixty four thousand prominent" Chicago business men to petition asking for his appointment as postmaster. The newspapers have published all about his petition, and to save the president and Mir. Bissell the trouble of counting the names he took oath that there were the number claimed.
 Such petition might be thought to be big enough to move the capitol, but it appears not to have moved Mir. Cleve. land, and MT. Bssell. on seeing him, looked not at his petition but at him and needed not his arguments but lis- tened to his language. It did not occur to Mir Bissell as it might 10 most New Workers, that anything is good enough for Chicago, and that the GA, ,000 signers might know what they require. He took Mir. Lawler on first impression. Had that petition been sent by mail it might have been very impressive.

BULLET-PRoOF CLOTH.
The Valuable Discovery Made bv a
 Tailor in Berlin.

BERLIN, March 2S.-[ Associated Press l The cloth cuirass invented by Mann helm, tailor, to resist the small cal ibre bullet, and recently approved by the war department, was tested at Mannheim. Uniforms of the new cloth probed by balls shot from points of 100, POO or 300 meters distant. At shorter range the wooden figures were so deeply dented that the officers concluded the force of the impact was sufficient to stun aman.
 To make the cuirass the tailor prob ably applies secret preparation to an

Mr.. Funderburgh, of Kiowa, dur
ing the debate on Mr.. Bromley's as
sessment bill yesterday afternoon,
made his first speech of any length
1t was a good speech, too. He favor
ed any sort of measure which would
compel the investment companies to
pay taxes to the state. These com
panies, he said, he had noticed al
ways paid taxes on lands on which
they held mortgages when the own
ers failed to do so, in order to hold
the land. He favored Mr.. Bromley's
bill and thought 90 out of every 100
of his people did.-Denver Times.

would give those north including
Kiowa county, good road to the
mill free from sand. 1t would result
in the opening up of good road
south from Carlton, and would bring
much wheat and trade here from the
eastern part of Baca county, that now
goes elsewhere. Mr.. Funderburgh
has great interest in the fate of the
bill, and will endeavor to push il
through the honse at an early day.

If the Sparks is for political rea-
sons only, opposed to the state con-
structing bridge across the river
near Carlton, which upon completion
is to be turned over to the county, it
should say so plainly, and not try to
damn the enterprise with faint praise,
or find fault where criticism is ridic-
ulous. After saying that $1,000 is
sufficient to complete the work, it
kicks because, municipal or private
corporation, individuals, associations
or the county" may contribute if they
desire. The entire county has an in
terest in the construction of the
bridge, and it will be built wholly
from the internal improvement fund
of the state, if the enterprise is not
killed entire by cold water thrown
through personal spite, or through
petty politics.

Senator Swink has in troduced a
bill into the senate that is of general
and vital interest to the entire Arkan-
sas valley. Its purpose is the con-
struction of an enormous reservoir at
Twin Lakes, in Lake county, some
I5 miles south of Leadville. The
lakes are at the present time about
3 miles long and ! miles wide. The
proposed reservoir will be, six miles
long two miles wide, 7o feet at the
deepest point, and will have capacity
equal to l2l 500 acres of water foot
deep. The feasibility of the scheme
has been carefully looked into, and
its practicability is vouched for by
ex- State Engineer Maxwell and Major
Powell of the government survey. The
state owns upward of 10000 acres
of land along the bitches of the Ar
kansas valley, whose water supply
would be increase by the immense
storage of water in the reservoir. The
appropriation asked for is 100000
from the internal improvement fund.

The construction of a bridge at the
