THE PENNINGTON FAMILY.
Showing the Circumstances Under
Which Uncle Sam Ought to be
Ashamed to Look the Amer
lean Flag i'm the Face.


NV father was born in Boone's Sta
ton, Ken lucky; and l have seen the
cabin of Daniel Boone on the western
bank of the Missouri river, where he
took refuge after he was driven out Of
Kentucky by the lawyers on land title;
but never in my wandering life have /
eer a cabin erected in subj a desolats
place as the Pennington cabin on the
upper Santa Cruz in 1859.
1t was right on the road OF the Apsch>
es into Sonora and as far from civiliza-
ton as a white family could possibly
reach. Nevertheless Pennington came
there with his wife and about dozen
children to enjoy ''elbow room" in the
Great West.
lie was invited to come by the gov
ernment of the United States.
Under the ADMINISTRATION existing at
that time the pI esident of the United
States had announced, in the face Of the
sun, from the east front OF the capitol
at Washington, that "an American Cit
zen could not 60 so far IN the pursuit
of legitimate business bat he would tiod
an agent there to protect him,
What bombs gasconade!
Old Pennington bad probably read
this inaugural address and, being en-
couraged by its patriotic sentiments
started with bis FLARES and penates" for
Arizona.
They were not left long uDdis'urbed
on the SAINTS Cruz and, after the loss of
few children, moved to Sopori.
One of the girls had married Barnett,
who was q member of the First Lsgis-
lature of Arizona.
In 1850 the Apaches made a descent
on Sopori and killed the inmates, carry
ing off Mrs. Page as captive as far az
she could walk, when they lanced her
and left her for dead on the northern
side of the Sapta Rita mountains, but
she miraculouslY survived and crawling
on her hands and knees, subssted for
two weeks upon the scanty roots OF the
mountain side, when she was rescued by
some travellers on the Santa Cruz and
yet lives in Tucson, q most reputable
and respectable life, cared for by an
affectionate husband, and esteemed by
society.
There IS not much romance in the
Pennington family; but the old man had
a little wit.
During the carpet bag era candidate
for delegate went to Sopori electioneer-
ing for votes.
Old Pennington said:
Are you one Of them carpet bag fell
lers from Washington" Being answer
ID in the affirmative, he replied:
IL will take the whole family down to
vote for you. We want to get clear OF
them varminte."
The boys were all killed except Jim
Pennington who returned to Texas and
the OILY memorial of the family in ARR
ora is Pennington street in the ancient
and honorable pueblo at Tucson.
A government that would permit such
family as the Penningtons to come to
the frontier, under the sacred obligation
Of protection, and be butchered and
destroyed by ApacheS, ought to be
ashamed to look an American flag IN the
face on the 4th Of July.

ington special says:
Disappointment awaits the people Of
Arizona and New Mexico. A decree has
gone forth that their prayers are left
unanswered another two years. They
can thank Speaker Reed and his little
combine for the dose Of disappointment.
The explanation offered is that il is
deemed Of the highest Importance to
check any further growth of the silver
strength in the senate, and the best way
to do that is to prevent any increase of
representation from the mountain re-
gion. Therefore the house committee
on territories will not report the bills for
admission OF the territories named until
too late for action by this congress.

WATER THAT EXPLODED.

A Bartender's Experience Under Fire OF a
Eusillade of Settler.
do YOU know" said Billy Clark, of
the Grand hotel, to a Cincinnati Times
Star reporter, as a big settler bottle
fixed and two or three men on the out
side elevated a foot each on the railing
and looked on, that these settler
water bottles will explode easily?"
And the three men each put foot down
on the floor and moved slightly away.
Sometimes Just the temperature of the
hand will do it, the warm hand, placed
against it while bringing it from cold
room, or sometimes while lifting it one
will strike it against the counter and IT
will explode and the metal top will be
driven with great force by the gas.
One time, while at the Gibson, l refused
to give a man a drink He took it very
much to heart and went away vOwiDg
he would get even with me. L had
turned about as he went out and had
my back to him. Suddenly there came
q sound like pistol shot. | tried to
turn around and couldn't, and | was
sure the man had carried his threat
into effect and had shot me. Directly
following that explosion came another
and another, and there was a rapid sue
cession of explosions. Then L knew
the man had opened a regular fusillade
on me, and yet was riveted to the spot.
L could not stir. L thought | had been
paralyzed by a bullet. Come to find out
one of these settler water bottles in the
far end of the counter had exploded
and the conclusion had started the
others, until all had exploded that were
on that shelf. And the man had gone
away and l never saw him again. But

Tavary Opera Company in Carmen.


The engagement of the Tavary Grand
Opera company is one OF the few pleas
ures the musical people of Tucson and
ighboring towns will have during the

dience will hear Carmen" is assured by
the heavy advance sales. English grand
opera has become so rare in recent years,

OF nearly one hundred people, and
among the principals are the most sue

Europe. The company go direct from
