 Jesus Mega was an unwilling bride groom Monday night. Through stress of circumstances he was prevailed upon to take the preliminary steps to matrimony several weeks ago by pro- curing license. He still wavered however, until the shadow of the law loomed over his undevoted head, and Monday night he led the girl, Gabriel Valencia, before Justice Johnstone who made the couple candidates for a charivari.
 Attention is called to a four-page cir cular issued by Kilroy's New Palas- tine agency, which forever sets at rest the untruthful and injurious reports circulated by interested real estate owners and agents, to the effect that portions of Phoenix are subject tc overflow from the Salt river. This circular, which is of great interest te the whole community, and in which the real facts in regard to the over flow of 1891 are now for the first time truthfully stated to the public, abso lutely proves the falsity of all sucf reports. It can be had at Kilroy's of flee, room 313, Fleming block, Phoenix on and after Monday, November 30.

An Experiment to Try.

An interesting experiment in magic may be performed that will show it to be mistake that water will find it's level, says the Chicago Interior. Take a glass tube and bend it in the shape ot U. Pour it half full of pure water, and be sure that the pitcher from which you pour it will only fill the bent tube half full. That is fdr effect on the ob- server. Now take another pitcher con- taining pure brine, 8 solution of com mon salt, and pour it slowly into one of the arms of the tube. The water in the other arm will rise an inch or two above the level of the brine in the other, and if you continue pouring it will run over, until all the fresh water is driven out. There now, you have an illustration which can be used for a number of pur- poses!

bunting consists more in safeness than distance.
 The team as a whole needs more training. The interference has been weak, and the line has not been solid enough. The players should line up quicker and get off like shot when the ball is snapped. On the defensive the guards, tackles and backs must get down under the wedge that the Indians know so well, and the ends must play out farther, so as not to be drawn into the interference of the opponents.
 The quarterback has it in his power to worry the opposite quarter great deal, and should attend to that.
 AS a whole the team promises to make it interesting for the Indians and the audience and people who never saw the whites and redskins engaged in this more civilized contest will dc themselves pleasure by attending the game Thursday at the park.

WITH THE ANCIENTS.
Visit to the Ruins of the Verde's Pre-
 historic People.

MT. and Mrs. F. L. Donkey and niece, Miss Davis, George Tousey and J. w. Benham returned last Monday from the region of prehistoric cities, towns and villages, which are situated about sixty-five miles northeast of here, on the Verde river. These places are now only in evidence as remarkable ruins, but there is abundant evidence that their inhabitants were thrifty, indus trious and civilized, and withal good warriors when harassed by enemies Each locality has it's burial ground, and in the ruins of several rooms in large structures (Mr. Benham states that he counted 40 in one building rooms with the walls well defined) are numerous articles and implements for domestic purposes some in state of remarkable preservation.
 The party was out ten days and was quite busy exploring ''the city of the dead' for relics and curios. They had three men employed to do the heavy work, and were quite successful in unearthing select lot of specimens, such as pottery, stone (battle) axes, thigh bones, bone bodkinS, handsome beads, radius and ulna bones (some of | these of remarkable length, being from five to six inches longer than the forearm bones of ordinary mortals of the present time), handsome shell or naments (necklaces) and human skulls
 MT. Benham is collecting specimens
 and will no doubt before long have a rare cabinet of gruesome relics.

LOVE LlGHTENS LABOR.
Advantages Country People Have Over
 Their City Brothers.


 The countryman has, if he be wise enough to perceive it, good reason to count himself a luckier person alto gether than he whose work is done in town. For the latter, says Black and White, unless he be exceeding well off, there are few pleasures easily obtain able in the intervals of toil Food and sleep are excellent in their way, but they are necessities, and they are usual ly taken under such circumstances as to have nothing of the character of luXuries. The countryman is luckier than this. It may be that his toll is tiring and that his wage is small one, but he labors in such way that he al- ways gets the fullest enjoyment out of his rest, and when he pauses to take his midday meal it is under conditions that would make perfect holiday for the city, and to whose charm even the man accustomed to them cannot grow callous. He lies at ease among the sheaves that he has cut, and the sun. | whose ardent rays made his toil the heavier, now adds to his delight. More over, he eats with the pleasantest of walters to see to his comfort; it may ke his wife who brings his dinner, or per haps it is some buxom girl from the farm who is not yet his, though she will some day be, as she knows within herself, and he is not afraid to believe Verify, his toll is hard in itself. hut he must be a singularly discontented per son if he do not find it light amid these surroundings and under these pleasant conditions.

WOOD SAVING.

The big tent held another large audi ence last night. The novel attraction, the ladies' wood saving contest, has aroused a new interest. It is certain ly such as to create considerable ex- citement among the audience. The participants look upon it as very serious affair and "stick" to their "stick" with great zeal. The custo- mary programme was presented. The McDonalds kept the audience in good humor; the acrobatic work was splen- did, while it is needless to say that the pretty little O'Malley sisters 'done their turn" with the grace which char acterizes all their work.

DAYS WERE ONCE SHORT.
Only Three Hours in Length in the Early
 Stages of the World.


 When the earth was young, says Dr. Fall, the eminent British astronomer, it turned on it's axis so rapidly that it made one complete revolution once in every three hours! The earth was liquid then, says the St. Louis Republic, and it spun around at that fearful speed probably for thousands of years. The sun caused ever-:ncreasing tides on the surface of the great liquid planet, and at last it burst in two. But the break was not in the middle of what had been the great, swift-revolving globe of liquid matter. It was to one side, and the effect was to throw the smaller fragment out into space. That fragment kept on turning, and was soon fashioned into a globe. We see it to-day and know it as the moon. The larger r.ece also kept turning on it's axis, and in the course of ages became the spheri- cal, habitable eartl. The smaller frag- ment of the great original globe, being held in place by the attraction of the larger, has been going around the earth ever since, but has been gradually in creasing the distance between itself and it's primary. Some astronomers believe that eventually the moon will get so far away that it cannot be seen by the inhabitants of our 1lanet.

The anemone is named from two Greek words signifying 'the wind flow ers"-an allusion to the habit of this plant of living in an exposed situation.

The Chico Chronicle Record" says:
No community will ever prosper where
the people are not a unit In a town
where everyone is pulling together and
striving for it's material advancement,
there you will find prosperity"
Abstractly true, Of course, but pull
ing together must be understood to
mean having a common purpose in pro-
noting the prosperity of the whole COM
munity. Tt must not be taken to mean
that advancement is best conserved by
absence of all contention. On the con-
trary, in town, city or country, in busi-
ness. family or any other group, the
very fact that differences of opinion are
entertained is the best assurance of the
evolution of the truth. We must expect
men to disagree as to methods, to differ
widely as to means to be employed, to
divide in opinion as to what is true
prosperity and as to what is real econ
omy. But this is not saying that this
Joining of issues should ever excuse
rancor, anger, heat, strife or clique A
community that is going to keep up
with the procession, is one in which
there is free debate, wide divergence of
thought, general discussion of all COM
munity questions from all standpoints,
but manly submission to the judgment
of the majority and hearty union of en-
deavor when once a course of procedure
iG settled upon. The community will
retrogress in which there has been free
debate, full exchange Of sentiment and
final settlement upon course to be fol-
lowed where the minority goes off in the
dumps and proceeds to 'get even with
the majority, to throw obstacles in its
way, to impede, retard and undo. 1t is
in such communities that public-spir-
tied men lose heart, and forward move
ment ceases. The rule and doctrine of
General Sherman is the right one 'I be-
lieve in secession" he exclaimed, "but it
should carry a fellow clear out of the

THE SAN FRANCISCO ANARCHISTS.

The anarchists have organized in San
Francisco. The organizer is an alien
Italian He was sent over for the pur-
pose. The flag with the red center for
blood and the black border for death
now floats over the weekly meetings of
the people in San Francisco who declare
all government crime, all regulation of
mems passions and strength an offense,
and all law an outrage
Possibly the best way to treat the an
archist in this free country is to leave
him strictly alone. To limit free speech
by a censorship that would close the
mouth of the anarchist would be a first
step toward destruction of our liberties,
say the philosophers. That may be true
in an applied case, but it cannot be true,
we think, as a. general rule. If the an
archist by his preaching excites men to
do those things which the law forbids,
is he not in the same category with
those who by speech provoke breach of
Of the peace?
However, we may find compromise
ground with the philosophers, namely,
that there is no need for the enactment
of special laws to reach the anarchist.
The usual criminal laws are sufficient
for his case. When he inyades them
punish him as we do any other criminal
But when all this is said, we confess
that it is calling to remain quiet while
these anarchists sit beneath the protec-
ton of the very laws they are scheming
to overthrow and plot the destruction
of the only Government on the face OF
the globe, save two, which permits them
to put their thoughts into speech and
print.
anarchists of Gori's San Francisco Sec
ton eight-tenths are Italians, and OF
them six-tenths are believed by the po-
lice to be Mafaites. 1t is, as the Oak
land Tribune" suggests, only a step
from one organization to the other But
there is one thing that the San Fran
cisco press might do that would seri-
ously cripple Gori's movement, namely
refuse to publish the proceedings of the
anarchist meetings. His sort thrive by
publicity. They will make few converts
if they cannot use the daily press. They
will do small harm only save through
its agency
But did the San Francisco papers ever
agree on anything. Is not jealousy
so rampant among the lot of them ALL
that neither fellow dares to be cour-
ageous for fear the other will take ad-
vantage of it by SO much as the sale OF
two nickels' worth of printed sheets.

Commons that England disclaims any

himself Doubtless, but so far as the
Sacramento public is concerned it can
deal only with the local management

announcements are made that he does

ford to permit anyone to be drawn to
any theater under his mana cement by
any manner, of false pretense. He is
trying to do WELL and none have COM
mended him more than the Record

between the public and bald swindles
in announcements if he is to succeed as
