Assisting His Friend-Invites Trouble
 to Himself

Recorder Jobs disentangled a small complication in his court yesterday. An Fon owns horse and wagon which he loaned to Chun King. The latter after using the rig drove up to a con- 0enient hitching post and left, with out hitching the animal. Constable Porterie arrested and brought him be- fore Jobs. He pleaded not guilty and swore that it was not his team, but the team of An Fon. The latter was brought into court. Thinking to free his friend, he assisted him to an alibi, whereupon Jobs kindly fined An Fon s3 It was worth that amount to wit ness the expression of contempt and disgust that An Fpn gave to his friend, Chun King. @Laaiaby alice samee damn fIaud"

GOOD WHISKY.
A Proper Present From Proper
 Friend.

The finest whisky that ever came to Arizona arrived yesterday morning from Kentucky, as a present to MT G. H. Honshell from his Paris, Ky, friend, MT. Stuart Sixteen years old, pure and unadulterated, it tickled the palate of number of Honshell's s friends who claim to be and who are judges of the article. When the cork was removed from one of the bottles, at the M. & P. depot there was an es- cape of odor that permeated clear across to the west side of town, caus- ing number of red-nosed gentlemen to, elevate their proboscis' and inquire where tel? Such friend is Stuart, and of such is the kingdom of Ken lucky.

Colored Cook Chokes and Chews, Col

Constable Porterie yesterday arrest ed Isaac Mack Pinion, the colored gen. tleman who did the chef act at the house of Judge c. F. Ainsworth. The charge against MT. Mack P is a seri- ous one, and if proven guilty he will have leisure to repent him of his sins behind the walls of the Yuma peni- tentiary. It is alleged that one Mrs. Ida Stevens, light complexioned col ored lady, was in the alley between First and Second streets and Adams and Monroe streets Thursday night about 12 o'clock, and there and then MT. Mack Pinion did assault, strike, choke and bite her, the said Ida Stew ems. The hearing of the case is set for 2:30 o'clock this afternoon in the court of Justice Johnstone

People are generally looking for the best end of the bargain and when some thing is to be given away crowds are usually on hand. Let the street fakir appear with a free show, swallow swo I'd and give away few samples of his goods, the streets are always blockaded in front of the stand. It is very seldom that articles that are of any use to humanity are given away and when such solid and substantial firms as the Alkire company announces it's intention of making many valuable and useful presents to their custom CTS the public is sometimes slow in talk ing advantage of any offer of this kind from the fact that they have been gulled so often that they doubt every proposition that offers something for nothing. Alkire's gifts seem to differ from any other plan ever put forth in Phoenix, the presents are in the win dows of the big store and the way of distributing is frankly stated. They include some of the most useful house hold articles.

AN ELOPEMENT.
Two Hearts That Went Pitty-Pat as
 One.

Tucson Star: There was an elope- ment from Pantano yesterday morning. The wife of Jose Miranda ran away with man named Carlos Lopez, talk ing with her a 3-year-old baby girl. Suspecting that the couple had come in the direction of Tucson Miranda tel egraphed the sheriff to recover the baby for him; he didn't want the wo- man. Sheriff Leatherwood and Dep uty Doyle located the couple about noon at the extreme south end of My CTS street, where they had gone into camp. Mrs Miranda gave up the baby without any resistance and it was taken by the sheriff to await the ar rival of the father AS no complaint had been made against Lopez and Mrs. Miranda they were not further mo- tested.

A GOOD PLATFORM.
Phoenix

. Speaking of platforms there is noth- ing the matter with the following which the Holbrook Argus declares is its platform:
 A printed slip pasted to the paper kindly requested us if we said any thing about the candidates candidacy to send a marked copy of the paper.
 We didn't do it.
 We aint going to do it.
 We aint saying a word.
 We ain't going to say d word.
 Unless,
 The cash is in sight,
 And we can see the smiling face of the Goddess of Liberty on one side of the dollar of our dads, and count the tail-feathers of the great American eagle on the other side.
 In times past we have given away columns of space and reams of paper and great gobs of ink in a political campaign.
 And what did we get in return?
 Nothing but the privilege of wading in the mud behind the band wagon and spilling coal oil on our only coat, and getting shot in the eye with a Roman candle.
 But time and our feelings have changed.
 Everything has changed except our pockets sss xa
 There is no change there. # We are Republican, but ain't no pack mule to carry any candidate into office and then get the cold shoulder.
 And perhaps the cold mutton after the election is over. Our enthusiasm is gone.
 It has leaked through the holes in our elbows and perculated through the apertures in our pants.
 Glory is good thing, but cash is better
 Campaign thunder will no longer reverberate through these columns except at so much per clap. Our campaign rooster has to be fed and wherewith shall we feed him? He's lost his tail feathers from the first campaign, and now needs some extract of gold and silver. Our towline is sagged in the middle and unraveled at both ends. The candidate is out for office. We are out for "stuff

WHAT MADE THE CHANGE?

Everybody who has had an oppor- tunity for observing the progress of Indianapolis in the matter of street fmprovem in the last few years knows that that city has become one of the handsomest in the United States. The newspaper press there never tires of calling attention to the fact, and it is part of the public duty of every citizen to tell what brought about the change from the former slipshod and untidy condition of things.
 Here is what The News only the other day said about it: History here, as everywhere, shows that around street improvement all else has been grouped. Pave roadway properly .put down cement walks, sod the street lawns and it is no long while until the ugly town fences begin to come down until private lawns begin to be sown and moved and well kept as they ought to be kept, until private houses begin to put on paint, and, in short, until the whole standard of taste and neatness advances"
 Pave a roadway properly is the initial suggestion in this recipe for the making of a handsome city-a place that shall be inviting to the stranger and a joy to its own people. A city cannot be properly paved, which has here and there patch of one material and another, with intervening dirt roadways from which mud is carted broadcast on the wheels of every pass ing vehicle during muddy time, to be groud into dust as soon as dried. Nor is it wise for the owners of property to spend their money on experiments. 1t is always safest to do business on the experience of others Millions have been wasted in the trial of a vast range of materials for paving, and a few indeed have stood the test The cheapest is quite sure to be the dearest in the end. aud the most costly is not necessarily the dearest, by a long way. Commenting upon this subject, the Chicago Times-Herald speaks of the far reaching influence of good street Improvements as follows:
 Good streets mean good business, good houses. good prices for land No investment gives quicker or larger re- turns than money spent in improving the pavenents.. We are not sure that muddy, uneven, badly kept streets do not extend their baleful influence far Nher than property and actually affect the quality of citizenship. There is a certain air of lawlessness and solvency about level. well swept street that is reflected by the people who live in it. They advance in civic pride; they are willing to make sacrifices for the com mon good; they try to Hive up'' to the appearance of their street.
 These are facts which are illustrated in the advancement of Indianapolis from it's former physical and business conditions. The unimproved and gen. erally unkempt state of its streets was in thorough keeping with it's general business duliness, and instead of going forward, it for years retrograded. It was not the improvement in it's busi- ness conditions that brought about the change of which The News speaks, but it was the improvements which brought about it's better business con-

 "The awards granted at the Worlds Columbian Exposition, compared to the number of exhibitors, present the smallest number ever granted on the occasion of a Worlds Fair. This re- suit distinctly shows that unusual care and precaution were taken by the ex- pert judges, who, because of the rule requiring them to declare over their own signatures the reasons for their judgment, fully realized the great re- sponsibility thrown upon them. The exhibitor, therefore, may be assured that his award will have value such as the award granted at previous Ex- positions never gave.'

benville to consult their attorney.
While here they met Jackson. and Mr..

lied that they were behind time and
that II was too late TO do anything even
