NO ONE IN ARIZONA.

Don't you dare to refuse a silver coin no matter how badly it is worn by long circulation. If you do you may get into trouble. The United States supreme court, by a decision handed down this week, settled case that has been contested through all the courts by deciding that man who was put off train because a conduc- tor refused a silver dime that was very much worn was entitled to the s3l5 and costs which had been awarded him by the New Jersey courts. Chief Justice Fuller in disposing of the case said that silver coins were a legal ten der as long as they bore the resem- blance of coin. Paste that in your hat.-A rizona Citizen.
 Does the Citizen know anyone in Arizona who has refused silver coin, no matter how badly worn? Wouldn't all be glad to get even the worn kind?

Electric Bitters.

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for any season, but perhaps more gen. orally needed, when the languid ex- hausted feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid and sluggish and the need of tonic and alternative is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often ayerted long and perhaps fatal bilious levers. No medicine will act more surely in counteracting and free ing the system from the malarial poison. Headache, Indigestion, Con- stipation, Dizziness yield to Electric Bitters. 50 cts. and slOO per bottle at Chenoweth & Mix's Drug Store.

FORGED PASS At THE OLYMPIA.

The crime Of forging theatre passes has broken
out again II manifested Itself last night al the
OLYMPIA Two men came to the gate and presented
n pass for the roof garden. 1t bore the name OF
Mr. Hammersien. and was written on an envelope
such as is used TO put tickets I'm at the hoNoihce.
The ioorkeeper thought that the signature did not
look right and he called the attention OF the de-
tectiycs stationed at the house 10 the two men.
The detectives asked the men where they got the
pass and they said that they bought II from a
man I'm Deancey-st. They were willing 10 go with
the detectives TO fnd the man, and they dld so.
He proved 10 be Meyer I.arman. printer, twenty
one years old. Of No II Deancey-st. lie was ar
rested He said that he received the pass from
still another man The detectives did not believe
this but they undertook hunt for the other ma n
on the chance Of finding him. and at A late hour
last night they said TO be still hunting.
II appears from this that the forging or passes
is beginning rather early In the season II always
does begin. and about every theatre in town has
had it's experience OF IT, A year or two ago II was
done Tor a time M quite wholesale rate. num-
