 the local Republicans are right, too 1; but inasmuch as the gold Democrat who has been promised the place was a big contributor to Mark Hanna's cam paign fund. their protest will probably count for nothing. It is customary to have all parties represented on the in- auguration committee, but if this gold Democrat gets what he paid for, it will be the first time that chairman of the committee has not been member of the party which elected the President.

Who Is He |?
Hos Angeles Times.

A man from ArIzOna named Burk, a miner or the owner of mines in the ter. ritory, became entirely too festive last evening in the joints which decorate East First street, and was garnered in by Officers Henderson and Fay on the charge of carrying a concealed weapon. On his way to the station he attempted familiarlties with Mir. Fay's club. and the officer was obliged to use the instru- ment on Bulk's skull, to the detriment of that part of his anatomy. To the clerk he gave his name as Frank Burkr although that is thought to be simply an alias.

Yavapai county IS between the devil and the deep sea in the matter of those P. & A. c. bonds. When Coconlno county was cut of from this county, she assumed her share of the indebt- edness of the parent county, and set tied in full for her pro rata of the r. & A.C bonds. The authorities of that county are just laying low and waiting for the outcome of the matter Tn this county, and should this county succeed in repudiating these bonds, then Coco nino will bounce down on us for the recovery of the amount she paid us in settlement for her share of the debt.- Journal-Miner.

 Three hundred Navajo Indians are off their reservation and killing hundreds of deer in Colorado. Sheriff Duncan and Deputy Woods, of Montezuma county, who attempted to arrest some of the h. dians near Mancos, were fired upon and compelled to give up the chase. The sheriff called upon the governor to stop the wholesale slaughter of game. Governor McIntire was also notified that in the vicinity of Cortez the Utes are killing game. The governor thinks it may be necessary to send a detach- ment of troops into the southwestern part of the state.

Mistake of a Mother of Twins.


 There is family over on the West Side in which there is pair of twin girls. They are years old and resem- ble each other so marvelously that only the mother can tell which is Gladys and which is Grace.
 On Saturday night. just before bed time, the mother issued the order for baths. The older children took theirs, and along about 9 o'clock it was the turn of the twins. They were undressed and waiting.
 The mother took Gladys into the bath room and gave her thorough scrub ping. Then she allowed the mite to play in the water for few moments, and after that put her on the rug, pow dered her and put her nlghtie on.
 Just at this time the grocer boy came and the mother had to run down stairs and take charge of the provisions. After she had put everything away shecame back, grabbed up twin and took her to the bathroom. The little girl did not say much. After she was bathed she scampered back to her bedroom.
 There was whispered consultation between the two twins. and they both began to laugh as loudly as they could. "What are you youngsters laughing at ?' asked the mother as she came into the bedroom.
 "Nothing," they both protested, be- tween giggles.
 "But you are," insisted the mother. Tell me this instant"
 "Well," said Gladys, rolling about on the floor in merriment, 'you gave me two baths and didn It give sister any,"

THE RECIPROCITY OF A KISS

The supreme court of Missor has az
firmed judment of $4,000 against a man
named Carpenter who kissed a lady
named Pierce against her will. ''Of a
verify the punishment is just" COM
ments the st. Louis Mirror. No gen
tleman should kiss lady who doesn't
want him to. 1t is a lie when a man
kisses a woman who does not want to be
kissed A lie is a sin and should be pun
ished. There's nothing to a kiss but
reciprocity-not thing. With the proper
reciprocity absent from the performance
it's like dining on air. unles there ara
two in the game the result is an unkissed
kiss, and that expression was the con-
ception of a decadent now doing time
in Pentonville. If Mr. Carpenter had been
any kind of a man there never would
have been any complaint about the kiss.
Ii he had known how to kiss the lady
would not have told. If he had kissed
her properly-even though she were un-
willing-she would have forgiven him.
suppose he went at her in about the
style of dog licking a plate or as baby
kisses, with its mouth open. That will
offend any nice woman on earth. Or
perhaps he held his lips tightly together
and pressed them upon hers. That justly
infuriated her. There's no more salts
faction to the lady in such contact than
there would be in the contact of two
hrickbats. And again, perhaps Mr.. Car
yenter kissed the lady on the end of the
nose, which iS utterly agOn1Zlng to the
eentler sex and which is but inadequate

these very crude and inelegant kisses
the gentleman must have bestowed upon
the lady. If he had kissed her with that
mingled passion and respect which at
once frightens a lady and makes her
yearn for a repetition, she would never
have told her husband and she would
never have sued for damages. The dam
age did not consist i'm the klss--it was
more subtle than that. 1t consisted in
the injury to her tender feelingswhen she
thought that man would kiss without
knowing how to kiss ! say this even
though the lady will demand correc-
ton of the proposition. Nothing is more
certain than that kissing does not dam
age a woman. If it did then were they
iall damaged goods. ! don't beieve
woman ever lived who was not kissed by

was not the kiss itself, but the lack or
artistry in it's bestowal. A man VINO
