"The Woman in Black"

The "Woman in black craze has
struck this town at last. This mys-
terious parsonage has infested all Of our
neighbor towns, and has served the
purpose Of keeping girls of the streets
at night, and furnished material for
many hushed and awe-striken con-
versation. The woman IL seems, Is
here. She has met diverse and sundry
persons on back streets, and has com
mittcd n variety Of pranks. She wears
black veil, and has the faculty Of
vanishing very mysteriously after
having lifted up mans hat and felt
his head, or pinched some meandering
maiden on the arm. Where she comes
from, why she acts so, and who she IL
nobody Is able even 20 guess. Maybe
she is only n creature Of the imagina-
tion, and maybe she is n man in womans
attire who thinks he is having n barrel
of fun. Anyhow. according to the best
authorities, this ubiquitous phantom is
with us.-PunXsutawney Spirit.

Nogsles, Sonora, is separated from Pima county only ty e narrow street. Saloons are as numerous on the Sonora side as on the Pima county side. The question is, ha. the terri. tory of Arizona any jurisdiction in an sc. done on the sonora side though it might be an offense done on this side of the line?
 The intent of the candidate who invites voters across the line is to vio- late that claure of the law which for bid. him offering an improper induce ment to influence votes.

Emery kays, taxpayer and presl- dent of the citizens league of Phenix has entered suit in the District court for the recovery Of 1900 alleged by the petition 10 have been illegally drawn by J. T. Priest, w. l.. George and F.. B. Kirkland as members of tho Board of Supervisors of MaricOpa county, above that allowed by law for their services.
 IT may be new. to many to know that two members of our board also overdrew their salary, and were 1t not for the wstchful eye ei Probate Judge Bradley there is no telling how much may have been overdrawn, In justice to Messrs. Gilman and Williams the PRosPEcTOR firmly believes even should these gentlemen have over drawn their salary which without doubt was done unintentionally through ignorance of the law, every cent would willingly have been made good in fact their intentions of mak- ing their salary, technically overdrawn, secure is manifested by the fac. that they are allowing tDeir salary now be- coming due apply to the amount over drawn, but where there can be stress lad is the fact that their little over eight was not even mentioned in the minutes Of the board Of either those gratuituously published or recorded in the minute book. If it were some other unoffending official guilty of euch "gross" negligence we believe 1t would appear on the minutes in red ink to stand inscribed as a monument to their eager watchfulness. The supervisors salsry bills are always presented to the probate judge for approval, and when recently the bills were presented. as usual, that official refused to approve them, and to gus tain bis position showed the law which in 3d class counties allows but $3OO for salary ss supervisor yearly, while the salsr billsy were presented with regularity under the old system of 5 per day and 20 cts. per mile mileage. It acted as bomb in camp; the ex- plosion brought the district attorney so his feet and, after examination, that worthy pronounced it correct. After considerable mathematical work it WAS found that two of the supervis- ors had got ahead Cn the pay roll and since have not presented any bills for approval to the probate judge, and will continue to act until the books bal ance even though the dstes are differ ent. But an outsider would not have known such an incident occurred fl he were ts look through the minutes of the board o. supervisors.

 An amusing incident has leaked out from one of the faithful on the much respected Judge Reilly It runs as follows: During his recent campaign trip here the judge made it point 10 talk to as many of the voters irdivid- ually as possible in order 10 c-nvInce them Of the error of some candidates ways AS well as of his own sterling worth. On one of his trips down town for this purpose, MT. Reilly en- tered into conversation with a gentle- man oi rather prepossessing appear ance.

He talked continuously for eYactly 41 minutes by the watch at which time he paused Tor breath thereby giving his victim time to get iu few words. The unfortunate me1iately took advantage of the occasion and assured the judge that he was all right, but suggested that new pair Of pants would improve his appearance on the stump quite 6 little as his old ones were somewhat baggy at the knees. Tine judge was somewhat shocked at this apparent disrespect, but recovered himself sufficiently 10 ask the gentle man where his place of busine-s vas, when he found out 10 his di-may that the man was a Chicago drummer who had only been in Arizona 10 days, had never voted here and didn't have @ friend in town.
