bout is described in part as follows:
"Gorinun WAS anxious to mix matters
from the start. but In the rough work
in the clinches Levy seemed the stronger
though German gave evidence that he
was the better boxer by landing straight
lefts on his opponents nose German
landed straight ~left.handers and right
swings without damaging returns.
Levy's only hopes were IN his ability to
clinch and punch his adversary's body
while locked. though German was by no
several well intehded left swings and
was cross-countered by Germans right
which had a bad effect on his chances
OF success"
The decisive round, the eighth, is
thus described: The men responded, and
began a hot exchange in the middle OF
the ring. From the middle OF a close

THE ARIZONA KICKER.
A Liver Pill Man Who Jumped
to a Conclusion too Soon.

HC huCr Il 1U.-Last Monday the
travelling agent of a liver pill concern in
the east struck this town to contract
for an advertisement in the Kicker.
Finding that he was an old newspaper
man and that he purposed remaining
for two or three days TO take in the town
we set out to post him on some of the
idioms and customs lie thought he
knew it all however, aud that's the
reason he is in bed in room No. 4S in the
hotel with q bullet in his groin. Ii
seems that he dropped into the Wild
Eagle saloon and took a hand in a game
of poker. Oae of the things We were
going to post him about was poker.
The game Is rather eccentric III this
town. Sometimes two pairs beat four OF
kind, and Sometimes not. It's good
deal according TO who is playing aud
how much money there is up. 1t seems
chat our !riend got q royal flush and was
called by their jacks. He at once jumped
to the conclusion that he had won the
j
Big Pete q Brtn was in he game, and
it was an occasion when a pair SKIES
if held by Pete, would beat four aces.
While raking in the pot the liver pill
man WAS stopped b. bullet, and even
if he gets well he will have a bad limp
to his LETT leg. This town isn't as
big as Chicago or New York, nor as
wicked as S Louis or Cincinnati, but
We have oar customs and idioms just
tie same and the stranger who can't
tumble to them must take the conse-
quences.
An Excellent AppoiutmeM.-We point
with pride to the fact that we have been
| appointed chairman of the sen ate com
mittee on forestry. We regard this IS
the most important and responsible
chairmanship on the list aud can truth
| fully say it came to US unsought, We
hope no one will charge us with egotism
when we sly that the right man has
| been put in the right place. The COM
mittee has already had three meetings
and transacted "A great dea! of business
Next week we shall introduce bill 10
provide Tor purchasing and planting
/ ZOO bushels of mixed hickory and
chestnuts o. ths cres5 Of thu Black
mountain range; also for the purchase
and tIansplanting OF 20, 600 walnut and
butternut t. aes to adorn and enrich the
ella river valley. There is no earthly rea-
son why the territory cannot supply the
world with crab apples She can also be
made to control the market on wild
plumS or buckeyes. There are millions
OF acres of scrub pine aud cedar or the
mountains of this territory. Why not
replace this useless growth with OAK,
elm, beech redwood, sycamore and
other valuable woods? We believe that
the india rubber tree would thrive the
valleys and that mahogany and logwood
would be success on the hilsides
Our bill will call for an appropriation Of
500, 900, 600 as a starter, and if no spili5
of false economy pops up to scale down
the sum we'll make forestry walk to the
front in way to astonish every body.

PECULIAR PEOPLE,

''All the world is queer but thee and
me. Rachel, and thee is a,little peculiar, !"
said an old Quaker to his wife. Tue
good Friend, with the Shrewdness of his
sect, and in it's quaint simplicity of
diction, formulated truth as universal
as it is practically unacknowledged.
We all know peculiar people, and
wonder at them, and in our own little
private courts of judgment pronounce a
verdict against them. There is the
woman who, never having seen you
before, gives you in five minutes after
introduction rapid and comprehensive
sketch of her career, past and present,
with future expectations and plans added
thereto; and the man who airs his pet
theories, rides his religious hobby, and
dogmatically prescribes adhesion to his
views as the one thing requisite to make
all mankind perfect. Then there are
those who are color blind, mentally as
we'll as physically, and whose inharmon
ious ideas are as discordant as the glar
Jog incongruities of their attire
But it is not those whom many ioip in
condemning, not the truly eccentric, the
grotesqnely odd, of whom we are now
speaking, but rather of those who differ
from our. preconceived notions of their
characters, or from our own standards
and admired acquaintance often startle
and wound US by a revelation of traits
which we never dreamed that they pos
sessed; and we cry out, Glow peculiarr
forgetting that in orr turn, we probably
give just such surprising glimpses of our
own inconsistent natures, and cause
others to wonder at our peculiaritles.
We exclaim, aud believe that we honestly
desire it.
80 wad some power the giitie gle us,
To see oursel's as others see u.s.
But were our wish gratified, we're some
unwise and overfrank being to give us
our portrait and Photographic fidelity we
would shrink as we do from some of
those untlattering negatives which might
take the vanity ont of Narcissus himself.
We must take a different point of view
from the Quaker. Not until we 90
