THE PRIDE OF PHOENIX.
New Postofice Will Be Opened to the
 Public Today.

The postoffice force moved into the new quarters last night. Postoffice Inspector Waterbury expressed excus- able pride over the office, which he says is as we'll equipped as any in the division.
 The boxes number 768, of which 4SO are small boxes; 240 of medium size; 40 large size, and 8, drawers. They are keyless boxes and there is a sepa- rate combination to each box known only to the boX-holder and the post master. A large vault will be used to store stamps, registered matter and the postoffice records.
 The office is equipped with three delivery windows, one for ladies and two for gentlemen. Near the delivery windows is a swinging paper case for the convenience of the delivery clerks. The registered mail department is separated from the general office by a grating. In this department there are three windows so arranged that one clerk can attend to them all. One window is for registered matter, one for money orders and the other for stamps.
 In the rear of the office stands a pouch rack used for holding the pouches while the mail is being thrown in. The rack has hooks for holding thirty-six pouches. There are foul desks arranged along the left hand wall which are for the use of the car. riers in sorting mail.
 The electric lights will soon be 1T working order. This morning mai will be delivered from the new office for the first time.

THE TREASURY OF TEARS.
Mingled Emotions Enclosed in
 the Recorders FGs1rket,
There Are Pathetic Chapter Lives Of Men and Women Who Appear in the Police Court-High and Low Come There.

That tale of woe, the old testament Book of Lamentations, is not usually considered very cheerful reading, but the docket of City Recorder Jobs proves to be very little, if any, more mirthful He closed a volume of his history of municipal tergiversation yesterday and a Republican reporter in turning over its 446 pages could not help speculating how many tears the 981 cases therein recorded involved. For, of course, the majority of de- fendants had been drunks, disorder lies, fighters, hobos, men, boys and fallen women.
 The cut faces, bleared eyes, bloody garments and utterly abandoned spir- it's ranged each day before this city s tribunal for offenses against it's ordi- nances, do not complete the measure of woe heaped up by their wrong do- ing. There are desolate fresides, stricken, gray haired parents, heart whose lives have been blasted by the wayward creatures that go forth from a city's police court to it's merciless chain gang.
 And yet there shines a little ray of comfort from the murky pages of the Phoenix recorders docket, just closed The number of arrests has decreased In September, 1895, there were eighty eight cases; in September, 1896, only fifty-six. October, 1895, showed 142 cases, as against eighty-five in Oc- tober, 1896. Last November's drunks and disorderlies amounted to 102; this month they will hardly reach ninety
 The highest, as we'll as the lowest appear in some capacity before the Phoenix recorder. During the year o1 the docket just closed governor and a territorial secretary have been in. volved-as complainants, however, not as culprits. Most circumspect, ire. proachable business men have some how managed to range alongside hop. fiends for ordinance infringement, in advertent or otherwise.
 The student of geography could not fail to be interested in the varied tales of travel recounted by Dusty Waggles and Weary William Per. haps the funniest case was that insti tuted against goddess rooster that contrary to the form of the city ordi nance in such case made and provided each morning at sunrise disturbed by his insistent growing the slumber of { distinguished official who could sleel at no other time. The recorder docket under review closes with <; happy ending of this trouble fraugh case by the death of the rooster ant the distinguished officials acceptance of the owners invitation to dine of chanticleer's carcass at p. m.

The Salvation Army People Denied
 Themselves Dainties

Members of the Salvation Army have not luxuriated this week. On the contrary, they have denied themselves such dainties as sugar, syrup, butter and other products that assist in mak- ing things palatable. The self-denial programme last night at the local bar racks included word and canvass pie lures of the benighted, rum-cursed slums of the great cities. Speaking of the opium and morphine depravity in New York, the captain said:
 ''Yes, and we have found women victims here in Phoenix and they're not all in block Al, either"

He Has Built an Attractive Miniature
Park.

Meriden, July Ill. Willard Lyon, of
1893 Hobart street, has constructed a
miniature amusement park and church
of iron, wood and paper that is favora-
bly, commented upon by all who see It,.
The park is nearly six feet long and
about four feet wide. In the center Is
wooden tank filled with water on
which floats a steam yacht, a steam
launch and a. row boat. All Of the tiny
crafts are correct in their details, even
to the cannons on the deck of the
yacht.
Around this oblong- shaped pond are
to be seen a ball game between the
New Yorks and Baltimores, Niagara
Falls. Brooklyn bridge, the unwilling Of
Lincoln's statue with a brass cannon to
fire the salute, a bicycle race, Grand
canal at Venice, q scene from 1.-THE Old
Homestead" Madame Jarley's wax
works, trained animals, spinning wheel,
settee for ladies, etc. The merry-go-
round is run by clock work while toy
music box furnished the music. On a
platform overhead can be seen naval
battle between the English and Cont
mental forces, 1.-The spirit of TO-" little
Red Riding Hood and Punch and Judy.
A flag staff, Japanese parasols, etc.,
complete the effect.
A wedding party gets off the yacht,
goes through the grounds and passes
over bridge to a carriage. They
drive to miniature church that has a
chime of nine bells, a minister, a quar-
tette, dolls in the pews as the congre-
cation, stained glass windows, etc.
The bride is gowned in white, the
bridesmaid in pink the flower girl in
blue and the groom and best man in
nautical costumes.
Outside the church on the walk can
be seen a nurse girl, baby carriage and
pug dog. The church, like the rest of
Mr.. Lyons work, is complete in it's tiny
details. He has worked on the park
and church since January and may de-
eide to exhibit them at the state fair.
AS a source of amusement they are as
interesting to adults as to children.
