TEMPE ECHOES.

About twenty of our townspeople left on the California excursion.

 Sheriff Drais of Pinal county, and J. ". Griffith of Florence, left for PhG- nix yesterday. They are both inter- ested largely in cattle in this valley.
 Our efficient constable made killing yesterday in the shape of dog. He is making it very unpleasant for them and it is a pleasure to go through the streets here and see no dogs.
 Jim Goodwin left for San Francisco last night to be gone about month and while there will make arrange ments for the building of the Phoenix, Tempe & Mesa railroad.
 There seems to be a scarcity of water melons on this side of the river and it would be we'll for those that have any on the other side to bring over a load of large ones as they could be sold at once.
 Tom Elder returned yesterdap from the Superstition camp and report ev- erything working fine. Tom is an old time miner and knows good thing when he sees it. The camp is rapidly filling up and before long predicts it to be one of the largest gold mining prop. critics in the territory.
 Y. Calvillo's mother and sister sr- rived this morning from Tucson and expect to remain about a month. They were led to believe that he had killed child here about ten days ago, but it was 6 mistake of the Mexican papers. He did kill dog and before it died it fell on the child, from which the child died. No blame was attached to the officer and we can safely say he is an upright gentleman and does his duty to the best of his ability.

tive animals. Over half million skins are annually shipped to England and a large number to North America to be converted into leather. The macropid@ include several kinds of kangaroos and wallables. The progress of settlement in Australia has driven these animals from the more densely populated parts of the Australian con tinent, but in the country and unset tied districts they are still numerous enough to cause very considerable damage to the natural grasses. So serious has been the injury thus wrought that the colonial governments and runholders pay a small sum per head for the destruction of the kan garoos.

AN UNLUCkY MAIL GAR.
No. 300 Is a yeritable Terror to the Erie ., Railway Men.


 Railway Men.
 Railroad men, as a rule, are far from being supersti'ious, but there is a cer- tain mail car on the Erie railroad which trainmen always dread to have on their train. This car, which is re- garded with such a superstitious dread, is mail car No 500. On account of the aversion to it, this car is kept at the shops, except when it is absolutely needed on the line. This car, accord ing to the Chicago Tribune, has a record which perhaps no other car in existence can equal. Not this car alone, but all it's predecessors bearing the same number have met with dis aster.
 In the great disaster at Tioga Center thirteen years ago, mail car No. 500 was wrecked and burned. A new No. 500 was soon after built at the Jer- sey City shops. After being in num- Der of minor wrecks, it went down the steep bank at Shohola few years ago in one of the worst wrecks the road has ever experienced. The remains of this ill-fated car were burned and a new one bearing the same number was built at the Buffalo car shops. For short time the bright, new car ran from one end of the road to the other in safety, and the trainmen began to lose their fear of it when it was in their train. Its luck was short-lived, however, and it has been in nearly every serious wreck the road has had since. A litle over a week ago train No. 12 ran off the track at switch. As was expected, this car was on the train.
 Recently there was wreck near LacBwaxen. A railroad man at that station the day of the wreck, in talk ing to some passengers, said: I'll bet 500 was in the train" When the train had been put on the track and pulled slowly into the station the railroad man said: ''There, told you so." Sure enough there was the mail car with the unlucky 500 in big figures on its sides These three figures are a terror to every man on the road, and until the car is laid up for good the railroad men say frequent wrecls may be looked for.

The lady who has been for many years at the head of the ladies' boots department at one of the Paris universal providers declares that in all her experience she has never seen woman's foot only seven and four-ffths inches long. The aver age length is twenty-five centimeters to twenty-five and one-half centime- ters (ten inches to ten and one-fifth inches).

Australian Squatters Gradually Extermi-
 mating the Hungry, Long-Leaping Pest.
 The kangaroo plague has always been a great nuisance to the Australian squatters, for on an average these animals consume as much grass as sheep. It is stated by Science Gossip that on sheep run of sixty thousand to eighty thousand acres ten thousand kangaroos were killed annually for six consecutive years and yet their num- Der remained very formidable in the locality. In the colony of South Aus tralia hundreds of thousands of kanga- roos are slaughtered annually for their skins and the bonus offered by the au- thorities. The number of these marsu- pials in New South Wales in 1889 was es- timated to be over four million, and yet about five hundred thousand kangaroos and six hundred and fifty thousand wallables were destroyed in the col ony in that year. A bonus of sixteen cents for each kangaroo killed is of fered in Australia, hence the colonists are gradually exterminating these na-

A Lifetime in a Moment.

Those learned and scientific gentlemen
who have gone into the subject declare
the longest dreams last hardly a few
minutes. The following instance lends
support to their views. One evening
Victor Hugo was debating letters to his
secretary. Overcome by fatigue, the
great man dropped into slumber. A
few moments afterward he awoke,
haunted by dream which, as he thought,
had extended over several hours, and he
blamed his secretary for sitting there
waiting for him, instead of awakening
him Or else going away. What was his
surprise when the bewildered secretary
told him that he had only just finished
writing the last sentence dictated to him.
