Stamps Again

All the banks at present seem to
have full supply of internal revenue
stamps on hand. The express cOmpa-
MES are still aking the public pay for
the stamp which is used on their re-
ceipts, Notwithstanding the various
decisions rendered on the question, and
from the information given the HER
AID reporter by one of the local
agents they will continue to do so un-
til that test suit has been tried and de-
cided.
The postoffice thorities at this
place are having a good deal of trou-
BILE with the letters that have been
posted with the internal revenue
stamp on them instead of the right
kind.
Now all this mail will either be re.
turned to the person mailing it, prov
ided there is return address on it, or
the parties to whom it is addressed
will have to be gifted of letter being
held at this point for them, to be for
warded If the necessary postage is
sent to repay it.
These international revenue stamps
are not good for postoffice purposes
and should not be 60 used.

False Alarm.

Today about twelve thirty DR.. Turner
was hurriedly summoned to attend the
wife of Fred Swartz, who is an en-
ployee of the Gem gambling house
The summons was that the woman had
taken an overdose of morphine or
something else, it was not known
what.
When the doctor arrived it was
found that Swartz and his wife had
had some difficulty and she claimed to
have taken poison, but the doctor soon
saw that it was a bluff, and didn't take
his stomach pump out of his grip, only
wrote a prescription for the woman,
who seemed to be suffering more from
nervousness than anything else.
Swartz asked the doctor how much
the bill was for the visit aud the doc
tor told him the regular price, $3.50.
He objected to the size of the bill but
after little talk he finally told the
doctor he would come down to the office
and settle it.

Last afternoon Walter Taylor was
driving his milk wagon on San Fran

to keep his steed from running away.
Young Taylor was not hurt, only
badly shaken up by the dump. He
finally got his wagon hooked together
End hauled it off to the blacksmith
shop, where q new pin fixed things up
and he went on his way whistling.

A new and interesting attraction was
added to Halls circus this morning in
Juarez by the birth of cub lion, born
to the lioness Flora, which has been
with this circus for some time past.
The baby looks bright and healthy
and has already been christened "Be-

Flora when this circus was in the City
of Mexico last March and it is consid-
cred very unusual for q lioness to

In Camp and Out

The camping party which left the
city few days ago for the Sacramen-
tos came in on the White Oaks last
night and while they didn't stay as
long as they wanted to, they report
having had a fine time and wish thew
could have had more time of the out

part were DR.. Irwin. DIR. Townsend
Carl Blumenthal, and Robt. Krakauer.
AS to hunting and fishing, the boys say
they had all the small game, such as
squirrels, doves, and turkey, thew
wanted. They didn't get chance at
bear and deer, but the reports from the
natives of that section is that there is
a good deal of it in that section. The
fishing didn't amount to much. ONLY
q few fish we're caught, the trouble be-
ing that the streams were all so muddy
the fish wouldn't bite.
Judge Stanton, who took his family
up in the same neiRhborhood, says the
country is the prettiest in this section
and they are delightfully."- situated.
The young folks are all having good
time. There are no mosquitoes there.
The Judge said, 81 fixed our camp at

A Little War.

A fracas occurred in the district

Street SprinklerS.

Two or three council meetings ago
the council ordered Street Commits
stoner Wales to fix all street sprink-
lers with hose attachment whereby the
wagon may be filed from any fire plug
instead of having to drive for four or
five blocks to come to one of the stand
pipes which were erected for the pur-
pose of filling the wagons.
Commissioner Wales said he hadn't
fixed the wagons before because he
had never been notified of the order,
but now that he knew of it he was GO
ing to give the matter q fair trial on
the wagon which sprinkles in the
northern part of town.
This new arrangement is the same
which is used in all cities and should
be the one to be adopted here. The
hose gives larger stream and it seems
that it would be much quicker, but
those who don't think so claim that
there is too much time lost in the man
having to climb off and on his wagon,
and then the connections to the plugs
will consume some time. But to set
off againststhst they don't have to haul
an empty wagon half q mile every
time it needs filling.
