The Tarantula Didn't Bite.

Charles Stearnes, who has charge of
the fruit department at the North Main
street branch of the Public Market, con-
siders himself an extremely fortunate
sort of chap, and is exceedingly glad
that he is still alive. The reason why
Charley is enjoying such a delightful
state of mind is that day or two ago
an immense tarantula fell from bunch
OF bananas. The insect, or animal, landed
upon his left hand, and when he saw the
venomous creature he nearly tainted.
He tried to brush ii of with his right
hand, but was unable TO do so, and did
not succeed in getting it off until he
swept Ii off from his hand with a knife.
The spider fell to the ground, a distance
of nearly four feet, and just as soon as it
landed on the ground it sprang back into
the bunch of bananas, which was at least
six feet from the ground. The object OF
all of the excitement is now on exhibit
tion in the window of The NEWS office.

One great reason Is the Inconsistency OF
the great normal contingent who attend
our churches, and who give the lie to
their profession by ignoring the question
OF what is right when il comes TO cast
ing their votes. Miss Frances Willard
means well in regard TO her polyglot pe-
tition to present to parliament, although
she is doubtless aware tnat a petition
signed by foreigners is not presentable to
that august body. The Attleboro enthu-
siasts mean well who set themselves up
as moral censors but they forget that the
means employed to enforce the local law
engenders spirit of rebellion which fos-
ters and makes thrive the ~ will'' in
mems natures when individual right is OPP
posed.

Two National League Teams to Play 1n
 Phoenix on Friday.

The lovers of baseball will on Friday next have an opportunity to see a game of ball, the like of which has never be- fore been seen in Phoenix. Manager Goldberg of the Phoenix nine yesterday received a telegram stating that two National league teams would like to play a game in this city. Manager Goldberg jumped at the opportunity and immediately set about making ar engagements for their coming. The two league teams are composed of some of the best players in the country, and that they will play a good game is a foregone conclusion. The league teams will play game on Friday afternoon between themselves. On Saturday the Phoenix team will play the winner of the first game.
 All the baseball enthusiasts are greatly excited over the coming of the teams. The south siders will also have an opportunity to witness the games, for special trains will be run from Tempe and large delegation is expect ed will attend. The local team is not much worried over the outcome of the game with the team that wins on Fri day, but will put up strong game

CLEMENT IS DEAD.
The Last Contestant to the Mammoth
 Mines at Goldfield

It IS probable that the last of the woes of Hall & Sullivan, owners of tn; Mammoth mines, has been removed In litigation have they struggled on ever since the purchase of the wonder full Goldfield property. Their claim has been jumped, and portions of it have had to be deeded away, but at last all had been settled save the claim of J. F. Clements.
 Clements was a Colorado mining en- ginear. who, according to complaint filed in the district court at Phoenix had been employed by Hall & Sullivan to look up for them likely properties in Arizona. He reported favorably on the Mammoth and for his share after several years claimed one-seventh of the mine and something like $15O0OC of earnings.
 But Clements is dead. He passed into the unknown land November 5 at Victor Colorado. It is possible his soul, or rather his suit, may go march ing on, but the defense believe the case was buried with Clements.

Bullard slept the sleep of the innocent in the same room from which he so unceremoniously made an exit the pre- vious evening. He did not have any deputy sheriff to guard him, either. His sleep was undisturbed and he ap- peared smiling and chipper yesterday morning.
 Justice Johnstone yesterday morn- ing issued warrant for the arrest of Miss Courtney for disturbing the peace and quiet of somebody, but not Bullard, who had nothing to do with the arrest. She was released upon her own recog- nizance to appear for trial this morn ing at 8 o'clock. No matter if Miss Courtney did threaten to pull his whiskers, Bullard has established a reputation of being wideawake attor- ney who looks after the interest of his clients. Not every lawyer will have a writ of attachment served at 3 o'clock in the morning.

THE NEW RIFLE.
What a Colored Infantryman Says
 of It.

Nogaies Oasis: Companies A and B, (coloreO of the Twenty-fourth United States Infantry stationed at Fort Hua- ohuca, were in Nogales this week. The companies were on practice march and in command of Lieuts. Palmer, Leech and MacNaster. They camped here all day Monday, leaving again Tuesday for Huachuca, havinb nearly made their circuit of 200 miles.
 The soldiers were the object of no small amount of curiosity as they car ried the new Krag rifle which has just been adopted by the United States gov ernment. The cartridge itself is filled with smokeless powder and instead of the lead bullets that were formerly in use is one of steel which is about two inches long, and will pierce man S body but will not cause a dangerous wound unless it strikes a vital spot. In informing a crowd of the curious about the gun. one of the soldiers said that when a cartridge goes off it has the same effect as blank with the eXcep- Jion that it emiJs no smoke. He also said that-ithey shoot much farther than the Springfield rife but are not as true.

the electric light wires overhead. Nothing daunted, the young lad com menced the ascent of the pole to dis engage the object. He succeeded in reaching the cross tie and reaching out his hand he grasped a wire. The electric current shot through his frame. He gave a cry of pain and tried to loosen his hold of the wire. but was powerless.
 Writhing wioh pain his body was drawn up and he swung away from the pole. The weight of his body broke his hold on the wire and he fell heav- fly to the ground a distance of twenty feet.
 Strange to relate, he was unhurt from the fall, but the palm of his hand was badly burned from contact with the wire.
 The wire he grasped usually has a current of 2,200 volts, enough to kill a horse. That he was not killed from the shock is probably due to the fact that the force of the current had not then been turned on, but the distance of the fall was sufficient to either break few bones or kill him outright It is a safe proposition that he will not fool with any more electric wires

THE ISRAEL CASE.
A Statement That He Is Wanted by
 ,he Arizona Authorities

Says the Salt Lake Tribune of Nov. 15: George c. Israel and Mrs. Belle Dieter were arraigned in the Third dis trict court yesterday afternoon on an indictment charging them with adult cry. They asked for time to plead and were given until this morning. Israel's bond was fixed at $3,000 and Mrs. Deit- CTS at $2,O00, the presumption being that Israel will be extradited by the Arizona authorities. Judge Powers will defend the couple.''
 Inquiry about Phoenix develops no charge against Israel oD which he might be extradited. The Arizona au- thorities do not want him. He has many friends here who will do all in their power to help him in his present trouble, however much he may be te blame.
 The article reprinted from the Trib- une in yesterdays Republican excited much comment on the streets of Phoe- nix. One feature especially objected te was the inference that Israel had SC, duced Mrs. Dieter from the paths o. virtue. The fact is that when Israe first met the fascinating wife of Dieter she was the keeper of house of pros titution located on a corner next block fl, this city, and Dieter's standing may be gauged by the knowledge that tha individual at the time lived in this city and was on friendly terms with hi. wife.
 Dieter evidently regards his wife a: valuable, however, for he has followed the couple many a mile
