 lower deck. The construction has not reached the stage of armoring the vessels. The man who ordered the shoes must have held in memory the inundation of Phoenix year ago.
 Rolla Pitcher has severed his con- nestion with the Hotel Adams, where he has been assistant steward for some months.
 The residence of w. B. Lount, rear Center street north of the canal, was burglarized last night. There was mo- body at home Mrs. Lount was at the home of her father-in-law, MT. s. D. Lount, i'll, and MT. Lount was in town When MT. Lount returned home at 10 o'clock he noted the general disorder in every room. Things were turned either upside down or inside out Then he discovered that an entrance had been made through a window The thieves ad evidently been hunting for money. So far as could be dis covered last night all that was taken away was pair of trousers containing $5 and pocket knife.
 Sam Seip having disposed of his cigar store expects to leave for Klon- dyke tonight. He intends to go into the cigar and tobacco business at Daw- son City, He will buy his stock at Victoria and so avoid the payment of the Canadian duty. The hegira toward Eloldyke is amounting to stampede. Seattle Is one of the principal start ing points and a late letter from Phoenix boy who Is there now says the town is crowded and that the crowd is increasing with the arrival of every train and boat. The effect of the demand for supplies is begin ming to be felt on the market, so that many persons will probably leave without supplies and will depend upon quitting at some intermediate point
 The music of the Salvation Army is it's most unworthy feature. Not be- cause it is inharmonious, but because the tunes smack too much of worldli- ness. Yesterday a lass of the army sang to the music of a guitar the tune of "The Sunshine of Paradise Alley" The words almost constituted a par ody on that song, not wicked in itself, but made goddess by the places in which 1t is mostly sung. It is so wi h so many Salvation Army tunes and it is argued in their behalf that in that way the army is brought in closer touch with those whom it is it's mis- sion to save. It may be argued on the other hand that if one can be saved only by appealing to him through his memory of what is vile he should not be invelghed into encumbe1ing heaven.
 Major F. B. Russell, T. w. Hill aud c. W. Moves returned yesterday moIn- ing from weeks hunting trip oa the Gila. They intended to go into the White Tank mountains after big game, but were prevented from doing so on account of the absence of water. They had, though, a great deal of fun shoot ing ducks and geese along the river. The ducks were so numerous that at times they obscured the sun, but the moon sometimes does the same thfrg; still, it is out of range of the ordinary shotgun. But the hunters killed a great many by the "slipping-up-on- them" process. Among the game was a spike-bill duck, a sea fowl, evidently blown inland by storms Another victim was great gray goose, so big that it measured eight feet from tip to tip. Geese are only beginning to arrive. The only variety now on lAE li'Cl 10 s1O 6l dy 6OOoCs AC LII d1le will come along later.
 The brief, but unhappy, matrimon al career of Thomas J. Bryan and his wife, Cora L. Bryan, is approaching an end. On Saturday night MT. Bryan filed suit for divorce alleg. ng adultery. Most of the correspondents are persons to the complainant un- known. But he names one of them and the name is similar to the mi nutest letter, to that of one of the best known and most highly respected citizens and business men of Phoe1ix. But he is not the offender the com plainant has in mind, so that the name of the alleged correspondent may be omitted with propriety. Bryan and his wife were married in this city a little more than year ago. There was an eclipes of the honeymoon that had not been predicted by the al- manacs for 1896, and subsequent stages of the married life of MT. and Mrs. Bryan were tumultuous. Some times their differences were adjudi- cated in the police court and first one party and then the other was the complainant.
