A Daring Holdup.

Enid sun: One OF the most DARING
tobberies that has been committed in
this section since the opening, occurred
near Waukomis last Saturday night.
A farmer named William Il. Kalisch,
with his wife and son, were held up
by two men who came up to their
place mounted and demanded their
money, of which they had S565. 1t
was done up in two packages, one con.
taining $500 and the other SOS. Ac-l
cording TO report, they shot Mr.. ka-
lisch twice and then laid him low with
blow from clubbed revolver. His
son appearing they opened up fusi-
lade on him, but he escaped in kaffir
corn field. They then attacked the
woman and after mal,reating her,
made her give up what they thought
to be all of their money, but she had
the presence of mind to give them the
package that contained the sos, and
with this they left, supposing they
had all the booty. So far as known
the right parties have not yet been
ca sptured.

Husband Does " Foolish Thing.
Wichita Eagle: Mr.. aud Mrs. Ed.
Hayes were driving to their home on
the Cottonwood, from Guthrie, last
Tuesday, when Mrs. Hayes noticed a
number of rabbits along the road.
She suggested to her husband that he
shoot them with his revolver. Mr..
Hayes remarked that he would let her
have the revolver and when the next
rabDis appeared she could try her
hand. Mrs. Hayes took the revolver
and proceeded to lay it in the seat.
In doing so the weapon was discharged
the ball entering her hip with down
ward range. The first physician called
refused TO probe for :he ball; another
physician was summoned. The wound
is "a serious if not a fatal one.

Vile in the Countyiof Graham, the
judgement of said court afterward
being affirmed by the Supreme
Court of the Territory, and the
said Chacon being re sentenced to
be executed on the 18th day Of
June, 1897.
AND WHEREAS / am official
ly informed that said Augustine
Chacon did, on the 9th day of
June, 1897, escape from the Jail at
Solomonville in the said county of
Graham.
NOW THEREFORE, I, B. j.
Franklin, Governor of the Ter
rltoy of Arizona, by virtue Of the
power and authority in me vested,
do hereby offer FIVE HUNDRED

the apprehension of said fugitive
from justice and his detention in
any Jail in the United States.
IN TESTIMONY
THEREOF, / have this

SOME of the papers who have
criticized Sheriff Birehfield for the
escape of Chacon, beyond all reason
are finding GU, their mistake, and
acknowledging that it is mainly
the fault of the Jail and not of the
Sheriff, and are apologizing ac'
cordinly. The remedy for this
rotten Jail is to build a new one in
Stafford.

"THE Republican majority in the
House must certainly feel ebmar-
ressed by their present attitude
upon the Cuban question" remark
ed Congressman Ball, of Texas.
On April 6, 1896, more than year
ago, by vote of 247 yeas to 27
nays, the concurrent resolution
recognizing state of war in Cuba
and according belligerent rights TO
the Cuban forces was passed. For
that resolution Mr.. Dingley, Mr..
Hit, Mr.. Grosvenor, Mr.. Dolliver,
Mr., Hepburn, Mr.. Payne and the
Republicans generally voted with
the Democrats. For weeks The
Democratic minority have tried to
secure action upon the Senate res
olution, and yet the Republican
majority will not permit vote to
be taken. 1t is no answer to say
they are waiting upon the Presi,
dent. If they thought war exis.
ted more than year ago, when
they voted that way, why not say
SO now? If they were willing to
throw the responsibility upon Mr..
Cleveland, why not upon Mr.. Nc
Klnley? The skirts of the Demo
crat party are clean. They voted
for Cuban belligerency under Gle
veland and are ready to vote for it
now under Mckinley. The Re-
publicans will yet be driven to it.
And the country will hold them
responsible for the wrongs and
outrages on American citizens and
the crimes oocasioned by their
criminal delay. A death-bed re-
pontance will then be too late to
save them"

THE EFFECT OF LYING.

The one great thing that makes
so much advertising fall fiat is to
be found in the advertisers them
selves. They lie about their goods.
They tell what isn't so. For in
stance, one man says he sells a
soap that is wonderful article.
He tells the good housewife that
all she has to do is to buy the
soap and sit down. The soap will
do the rest. 1t will finish the job.
According to his ads the soap is
a living, breathing thing. 1t can
do everything but talk. II rolls
mp its sleeves, splits on its hands
and proceeds to drive out all the
dirt within radius of ten miles.
Maybe | am exaggeratlng a little
but not very much. When woman
puys the the soap she hnds 1T just
like any other soap. 1t makes
things clean, but it does no work
automatically. She has to apply
it and apply it hard, By the
sweat of her brow and the power
of her elbow she makes the soap
do its duty. The next time she
sees a soap ad or any other kind
of an ad she smiles and says
"Thank you; / have had a little ex'
perience of my own" Then, when
the advertisements begin to lose
their pulling power, the advertiser
says such and such papers, or pos
tiers, or booklets or circulars are
no good-they don't pull.--BW

famed acrobatic comedians. They are
two of the jolliest fellows that ever did
a turn, and are about as clever as men
get to be. Both are handsome athletes,
of wonderful prowess, and happily gift
ed with the power of the comedian.
Everything they do is either startling
as an acrobatic feat or ludicrous in the
extreme. They are very much the same
class of artists as the celebrated team
of acrobatic clowns, Caron and Her
bert, who made such a tremendous hit
at the Orpheum a year ago, and they
are said to be equally funny and fully
as clever in their acrobatic work.
Clermont's trained animals will add
81 strong feature to the program. They
never fail to score big success, es-
pecially the little French poodle that
plays the piano. He is. by all odds, the
most marvelousiy cultivated animal on
record. His rendition of the Last Rose
of Summer on the piano borders on the
impossible, and one would not believe
1t possible for dog to do as much
unless he saw the performance.

secured, and his work is considered the
best of any artist west of Chicago.
There has always been a faGcinat ton
and an attractiveness about the super
natural. When Fl. Rider Haggard first
went to South Africa as an under secre-
tary to a representative of Great Brit
aims government, he was attracted by
the folklore tales of the African natives,
and being an attentive listener and hav-
ing a vivid imagination of his own, he
rapidly became an adept al story telling
and an evening entertainer. Probably
his greatest success of this kind was the
writing of that great Oriental romance
She, a romance which is now world fam
Gus. The story is one that will thrill
you-of woman on whom, clothed in
the majesty of her almost endless years,
the shadow of eternity lay like the dark
pail of night Ayesha, the wonderful
queen of Kor, lived 440 B. C. Kallikrates,
a fallen priest of Isis, incurs her dis
pleasure and defies her and is slain. His
wife. Amenartes, curses Ayesha. the fire
of life appears and Ayesha registers d
vow to live until KallilSrate shall re-
turn.
The scenic effects of this production
will be the finest and most complete ever
presented in this city. The opening set
introduces the audience to the pro-
logue in the grand. imperial city of
Kor by moonlight. showing the meeting
of Kallikrates and Amenartes and closes
with the destruction of Kor by earth
quake. The drama opens with a scene
in London, the finding of the manu-
script in the iron box, the legacy of Leo
Ninceo. the siXty-eishth lineal descend
ant Of Kallikrates, and the resolve to go
to Africa at once. one of the best pieces
of stage realism follows in the scene
