WATER IN ARIZONA.
An-casfern Tourist Gave Ills Horses Expensive Entertainment.

There is an eastern man whose name is unknown carrying home with him an unfavora5le impression of Ari- zcna and wierd story of inhospitality. He gathered the impression, the story and valuable information regarding water at Yuma county mining camp. James May, whom everybody in Phoe- nix knows, keeps saloon near the King of Arizona mine. He keeps also a small stock of water fer the use of fastidious gentlemen who have to have something" on the side" Some of the water is given to horses which have not learned to drink whisky. Water is not indigenous to the scil in the vii cinity of Mr. Mays saloon, but is hauled from a spring or tank thirty five miles away. Freighters in Yuma county do not work fer their health, so that water at the King mine is given an inflated value, 10 cents gallon or $5 barrel.
 One day last week this uninitiated customer drove up to Mays saloon and hitched his horses. He bought Q drink of whisky and asked for water for his horses. MT. May pointed to the water barrels, but told the stranger that a thirsty horse unless he was mighty good one, could drink himself up at 10 cents gallon. The stranger laughed because he did not take Mir. May seriously. Those horses drank as freely as if they were confronting an eastern watering trough in the rainy season When their thirst had been -I~ k,vv I,f a+sf tion to their outward appearance. They were dusty and sweaty. He be- gan drenching them. The saloon keeper, who had gene inside, heard the unfamiliar swishing of water and came outside to see the phenomenon. He asked the stranger if he was million aire He said he had some champagne in the saloon which wealthy tourists often used fer washing horses. The stranger did net regard the joke worthy of smile, but continued the exterior irrigation of his team. MT. May then decided to let his guest pursue his ruinous career. He had tried his best to prevent his bankruptcy. When the tourist had finished soaking his horses he observed that the buggy was rather the verse fer dust. He gave 1t thor ough drenching while MT. May sat on a beer keg computing the extent of the watery waste. He had lost count of the water by bucketfuls. He knew, though, that his guest had long since emptied one barrel and had probably nearly finished another. When the stranger got ready to resume his jour ney Mir. May told him that he was in- debted to him for $10 for the item of water. The stranger imagined the ob-

LOSES GERMAN FRIENDS.
Leo's Speech to the French Pilgrims
 Said to Have Given Offense

Rome, Oct. 18.-The Rome press as serts that, in consequence of the pops's speech to the French pilgrims on Sat urday morning. there has been mark ed coclness between the vatican and Germany, diplomatic communication having been almost wholly suspended
 A party of English pilgrims arrived here to pay their respects to the pops.
 Berlin, Oct ,17-Herr von Bulow, Prussian minister to the vatican, has been recalled. The evening papers here minimize the impression prevail ing that his recall is Iantamount to a declaration of war between Emperor William and the pope.
 The National Zeitung announces that Herr von Bulow's successor has been chosen and this is confirmed by an ctfi- cial attached to the foreign office.

PENNEY & ROBINSON,

;servation to be tiresome continuation of the olu joke, and without making any reply kept on adjusting the har- ness. At length the earnestness of MT. May forced a conviction that he really wanted $10. The stranger changed his estimation. Instead of silly joker he now looked upon him as a robber. He grew angry and pro- fane and swcre that he was no tender foo- He had travelled in the west be- fore He got into his buggy and told MT. May to go to the devil. MT. May sprang in also, at the same time draw ing revolver He said he wanted to settle this water question without go- ing to law. In fact, he would not go into the courts at all except as de- fendant in a homicide case and he would surely be one unless that water bill was paid instantly. The stranger believed him and he was probably
 guided by wisdom, for he paid the bill.
 MT. May was in Phoenix last Mon day buying a new stcck of liquor. He said he did not like to sell water; there was no money in it, but some people insisted on having it, so it had to be kept in stock.

WHAT HAPPENED TO JONES.

MT. Clarke is presenting the great New York farcical success, What Happened to Jones' and has an ex- ceptionally strong supporting company. The new play has never been seen here, but it is described as rollicking farce, and large audiences in the east have laughed at its surprises and re markedly mirth provoking situations
 It sparkles from beginning to end and there is no cessation Of fun. It begins
 like polite comedy, but soon develops into the brcadest kind of wholesome farce with nothing to mar its accept ance by even fastidious persons. All the characters represent persons of good breeding. There is no suggestion of vulgarity and it is recognized as good fun, affording an evening Of pure merriment- MT.

BUSCHS BOOK
 ABOUT BISMARCK.

LOnQOn, -~Oct. 1S.-IQe issue or Busch's book about Bismarck, in Ger many, was SO certain 70 call down the wrath Of the imperial government on him and on his publisher that from the first no imprint of it there was contem- plated. Copies, however, quickly found their way from London to Germany, and for ten days past the German jour nals have been discussing it with some exasperation. Like one of the Lon don newspapers, they ind it wise to ignore Busch's account of the methods by which Bismarck bent the press to his purposes, but their anger at the jackal's disclosures is evident in their gibes at his expense. Bismarck, they say truly, was very human; he spoke of men and events in Busch's presence as the impulse of the moment prompt ed him, and passing conditions usually determined its nature. If all things were going well, it was kind; if Ill, it was irritable and contemptuous. It is an cid tale, for example, in Berlin, that when the Emperor Frederick sub mitted readily to the chancellor, he praised him as far superior as man and as sovereign to his father; but when as crown prince or as kalser he crossed Bismarck will, the minister promptly reversed the comparison. Regardless of the chancellor's moods and of the feelings of persons still living, say the German newspapers, in bad taste and with hungry pedantry and vanity, Busch has collected these broken meats of conversation" and hurried them to market before his chief had lain two months in his grave, and to the detriment of his fame.
 In fact, however, Busch's portrayal of Bismarck seems to Germans much less repellent than it does to English men. His own countrymen sympa- thized with him in his attacks (if not always in his methods) upon the Elm press Frederick, that have so angered English readers, and she remains to this day a thoroughly disliked woman from one end of Germany to the ether. They knew him as rude and bitter of speech and interruptions as to means, so long as he gained the great ends that he set before him and that are very real to them. They are amused over his gibes at the vexaticus prince lings and serene highnesses that dis tress official journals. If Busch, .'the reptile" were not thrusting himself so consistently into the foreground, they would probably find his sketches of the chancellor good likenesses Of the real man. With all their sneers at the jackal, they have not yet refuted any of his more important statements or Illuminating tales. Meantime, Ger mans are growing more and more cuTi- ous as to the existence or ncn-existence of the chancellor's own memoirs. By all accounts his family neither further ed the publication of Busch's book nor wholly approve it.
