 Monday Mir. and Mrs. Frank Powers Of Harshaw, went into Tucson on business. MT. Powers stated to THE OASIS man that he had heard that the man whom he sent to Fairbank about month ago, with letter containing a check, had been seen in Mexico. The man got drunk and was robbed Of the letter. The check it contained turned up in Nogales, and the man who had it is in jail awaiting the ac- ton of the grand jury.
 At Tucson last week Jose Luis Va leuzuela was arrested for attempted criminal assault committed on Fran cisca Robles, little girl of four years last August, A warrant was issued at the time but Nalenzuela escaped, went to Mexico and returned only day or two ago. The only witness against him was the child's mother aud it was therefore believed to be impossible to convict him. Justice Meyer permitted him to plead guilty to assault and sentenced him to three months in the county jail.
 The Star says: Chas. F. Hofr has lately returned from San Francisco, where he went to look over equip ments for the proposed street railway and to make arrangements for an ex- tension of the telephone service in Tucson. As result of his trip, the Sunset people will double the capacity of the exchange by putting in another switchboard. The telephone poles now in use will be replaced by longer and more ornamental ones, which will be planted to conform to the change in the sidewalks made since the poles l were erected. Mir. Hoff made a selec- | tion of stock for the railway and the purchase of it l,be made immediate ly upon the granting of the franchise, which will likely be done at the next meeting of the council.
 In Tucson two boy s named Muller | seem to have embarked on career of crime, and are frequently in jail. Now they are arrested for stealing a lot of chickens from Rosa Franco, a widow living near the electric light works. They were followed to the jail by more boys than casual observer would have supposed possible to Scrape together in the territory. The elder of the brothers is about fifteen years old. They have been engaged in sev- eral robberles but on account of their age they were punished lightly. Among their escapades was the burg lary of Thos. Hughes hardware store. On other occasion they stole a horse and buggy and drove out into the country. They camped near town and partially burned the buggy.

WHEN INFANTS DREAM.

Here must, o sun. thy splendor end,
When night and day together blends
When cleaning hues of fiame-red light
Defy the coming of the night,
Whose darksome shadows steal and creep,
While drowsy peoples fell asleep
Beneath the dewy touch of eve;
Each swollen bud within its sheath,
Nigh unto breaking into bloom,
Breathes fragrance through the ever
gloom.
Behold, a poet sleeps. and, 10!
He sees the bubbling brooklets flow;
He hears the robins matin song,
And views sweet nature all day long.
A great musician sleeps, and 10!
FcS him sweet melodies chime slow:
Once more he hears soft musics thrill
Waited far DOR dale and hill
A fragile infant sleeps. and, 10!
His dreaming eyes see Heavens glow,
While from the bending azure sky
He hears the seraphs sing on high.
The poet woke In JOY supreme
To write In verse his summer dream,
And in word painting bring to view
Sweet-shaded dells where flowers grew.
The great musician woke-arose-
Like harps awakened from repose
Then thrilled upon the midnight air
A throbbing music, sweet and rare.
But still the infant lay and thought
OF Heavenly visions wonder wrought
Musician great, thy music dwells
In every sylvan homegrown dell,
And, poet, all those verses sweet
Bring many praises to thy feet.
Yet in that ono pure baby breast
The sweetest rhymes aud music rest;
And could we know his musings there,
Nor verse nor music were more rare.
ELLA Bentley, in N. o. Times-Democrat.

Slowly Mr.. Oyerton hunted out the
papers and handed them over, his sur

a feeling of the deepest disappointment.
A speculation that promised him
profit of two thousand dollars had
slipped through his fingers so easily
that he could hardly recognize the fact.
He studied over the matter all that
