MADAME BURNETT.
The Clairvoyant Leaves Tucson and
 ForgetS Her Debts.

The ClairVOyant Leaves Tucson and
 Forg cts Her Debts.
 Some days ago the Star related an incident in which Madame Burnett, the fortune teller, had accommodat- ingly assisted several gentlemen to play a joke upon an acquaintance. The madame is something of joker on her own account. She has just worked off a good $50 one on Tucson. That was the amount the city eX- pected to recover in the way of li- cense, and the finance committee was so sure of it that it had held session and divided it up into funds for public improvements, such as the building of water works, paving the streets with asphaltum and organizing a paid fire department and base ball club that could beat Fort Thomas.
 The money is not available. Nobody knows where Mrs. Burnett is. The li- cense was due as soon as the fortune teller began business. On a plea of the collector waited from day to day until his patience had been worn threadbare. At last a point was reached at which something had to be done and it was done. Madame Burnett and her managing editor skipped by the light of a waning Sep tember moon. She seemed to be doing a good business here There are a lot of people in Tucson impatient about the future and they readily put up a dollar piece to find out what was on tap. She came here from Phoenix whose residents she had let in on the ground floor, and who had been al lowed to keep cases on Fate. This fortune telling syndicate is supposed to have taken an eastbound train.
