 rado, October Is. 1S91. JUDGE A. II. HACKNEY, GLOBE, ARIZONA. DEAR SR:-Referring to the communication of the 2sth ultimo, signed by yourself and u number of other prominent gentlemen of Globe, petitioning against the cutting off of Geronimo from telegraphic communi- cation with Globe, I have pleasure in informing you that in the proposed dismantlement of the military tele- graph line now connecting Fort Grant and San Carlos and rebuilding by another route, it is the intention to leave standing the section of line from San Carlos to Geronimo, thus main- taining telegraphic communication with the latter point. I will ask you to kindly convey this information to the others who are interested.
 Very respectfully,
 w. A GLAssFoRD, CaY,t,;r, C;npal rnr.,o Gi1na1 nNiaa,.

Destruction. by Collectors.

The destruction wrought by enthusi-
astic and remorseless collectors among
the rarer kinds of birds and wild flow
ers has been the subject of frequent
comment of late in almost all parts
of the civilized world. The latest illus
tration comes from Switzerland, where
the continued rayages of the amateur
and commercial botanist have been so
extensive as to provoke a special edict
from the project of the Haute-Savoie.
1t is well known that such plants as
the gentian, the edelweiss, the cycla-
men, the arnica montana and the aro-
matte genepi are year by year becom-
ing more scarce owing to the high
prices which are obtained for speci-
mems in the markets of big continental
cities-the edelweiss, so much priced as
g souvenir of visit to the Swiss noun
tains, being sold at a price sufficiently
high to induce the Alpine peasants to
run great risks in gathering it. The
new edict has been issued with view
to stopping this destruction of Alpine
plants and flowers within certain lin
its and seasons, and there is a general
agreement that it has not been issued
any too soon.-N. Y. Post.

MIGHTY STIFF BREEZE.
A Man from Kansas Outdoes An

Cyclone Absorbs So Much starch That
II Gets ParaIyzed-Chunlxs of IL
Kept to Cool the Air in
Summer.

They were a party of office-seekers,
and had very little to occupy their time
excepting to tell stories. A friendly
rivalry had sprung up, and some of the
imaginative productions which result
ed were, according to the Washington
Star, colossal and unique. A tale of
shipwreck had just been concluded, and
the silence that followed showed that
its narrator had discouraged the others.
A slim, quiet man, who had thus far
figured only as an attentive listener,
coughed timidly and said:
THAT was pretty stiff breeze you
were telling about just now in your
shipwreck story"
II guess it was about the stiffest
breeze that ever blew" replied the
raconteur, who was leaning back in his
chair with the air of a conquering hero.
"Oh, no. 1 don't like to contradict
anybody, but that wasn't the stiffest
breeze that ever blew, by great deal"
"I'd like to meet some one who ever
saw anything to beat it."
swell, am the man you are looking
for. I was farming in Kansas num-
her of years ago"
Hold on" interrupted the man who
had reputation to sustain; "the Kan
sas cyclone is barred. Istated clearly
that the wind which drove us ashore
was worse than any whirlwind that
could possibly happen"
swat till you hear about it. I am
prepared to admit that cyclone in its
natural state may have seemed like a
sigh of contentment compared with
your hurricane. But don't believe that
you have taken into account all the
things that can happen in the way of
cyclonic variations. Mind you, am not
talking about hard blows. lam talking
about stiff breezes. My farm was right
on the edge of small town where a
number of factories had been started.
