There are mons sinners than eaints In

become accustomed to such stories and
10 really prefer them. Ths Town Top
ics' editors can always be relied upon to
cater 10 this Initiated taste, and nearly
all of their stories are by writer's who
seem to have great confusion of mind
in regard to decent standards of be-
favior. The women in "a Martyr to
Love" are moro remarkable for violent an
inial instinct than for amy mental or sp!r-
itual grace. although tho heroine makes
a sacrifice that moves the reader to some
sort of emotion. She gives her life to
save her lover from the knowledge of his

The State Of Arizona Improvements Company this week made a formal de- mand upon Governor McOord for the convicts leased to them by ex-Governor Hughes. h the demand the Company states that all is now in readiness to go to work, and all that is lacking Is a ratification of the contract, and the con- vicse. Ae the Governor is known to be heartily in sympathy with the contract, the prisoners will probably soon be turned over.
