 At this juncture a bystander sug- gested that justice was satisfied and the dog was entitled to have his mis- cries ended, whereupon the executioner laid his gun aside, and gathering up an armful of rocks, he took reef in the clothesline so as to get the poor cur in easy range, and rained a shower of cobblestones around the poor yeiping devil, which brought forth fresh series of agonized cries of pain. This flasco lasted probably five minutes when the gun was again resorted to by a bystander, who succeeded In ending the sufferings of poor innocent dumb brute, whose only crime was to have made his advent into this world with out having obtained the permission of the city council.

THE DEATH OF A DOG.
A Punishment Which Was Much Too
 Big for inc Crime.

That the new dog catching ordinance is success cannot be disputed. if the death of the dog is the only considera- tion, regardless of the length of time and method involved in accomplishing 1t and the amount of ammunition ex. pended. At about 8: 30 a. m yesterday morning a crowd of people, among whom the small boy was much in evil dence. assembled at the back of Ryder's saw mill to witness the execu- tion of small black and tan puppy, by order of Captain General Scott fcolored). who has the distinguished honor of deciding the fate of all stray canines found at large and unable to give good and substantial reasons for living. The prisoner was leG out at the end of about eight feet of small clothesline, and turned over to the general, who constituted the, firing party and master of the ceremonies. Taking the clothesline in his left hand by the opposite end from that occupied by the dog, he looked the condemned in the eye for few seconds as though to hypnotize it. and then raising his trusty Winchester fired point blank at

X CRAZY COW.
A Bovine SCourge Raging in Brirs
 Addition.

A crazy COW has been keeping the residents of Brill's addition in a state of perturbation which even the camp meeting has been unable to allay Yesterday morning the COW took pos session of the front yard of resident. She believed, paved the lawn, waved her tail in the air and dared the family to come out. The challenge was dis | regarded. The family only climbed a
 little higher on the roost The head
 of the household escaped by a rear
 door and made his way to town and to the sheriff's office and demanded
 protection. The officials were unable to find anything in the statutes order circumstances and particularly when no warrant had been sworn out. They sent him to Justice JOnnstone The justice could not find the word "cow" ercise his magisterial functions It seemed as if nothing could be done until the householder mentioned that he believed the COW was mad. There could be no doubt that she was angry and excited about something, but what the householder meant was that she had hydrophobia. This suggested a means of relief. The matter was now brought within somebody's juris- diction. Here was a case for Dr. Nor ton, the territorial veterinarian. The householder went to him and related the story of the scourge in Brill's ad dition.
 The doctor was disinclined to ac- cept the hydrophobic theory. but he consented to go and see about it. He went out and looked at the COW, but did not feel her pulse or get a good view of her tongue. He decided at distance that she was a range COW re- gently introduced into civilization. Range cows under such circumstances are apt to be restless and even emo- tional. The case of this COW had prob ably been intensified by want of water. Acting upon this diagnosis lie pre- scribed a couple Of cowboys, who were sent for. They lass'ed the COW and not knowing what else to do with her turned her into a pasture field belong ing to Norton and Fulweiler. Dr. Norton's diagnosis was perhaps war ranted by his limited and casual ob- servation and his want of information of complete history of the case This is the same COW that tried to assassinate C. W. Barnett and family while they were asleep one night She had previously located their sleeping place in the front yard. brt ori that particular night they had moved it, so that the designs of tho COW were frustrated.
 That was two weeks ago and it is hardly possible that she could have been thirsty ever since There is something else the matter of that COW. It may not be hydrophobia. but it is the duty of the veterinarian to go out and look her in the eye and drag the secret from her.

PHOENICIANs AT LONG BEACH.
Joe Mulhatton Transmits Couple n1 Society Notes.

Mr. Joe MulhattOn or kentucky, WnO instituted a flew school of journalism several years ago, before the times were quite ripe for it, though they are now getting yellow with ripeness, is at Long Beach, Cal. In per- sonal letter to member of The Re- publican staff he furnishes the follow ing interesting information regarding well known Phoenicians who are now at Long Beach:
 Well. am here. So is MT. D. A. Abrams and his family, also MT. St. Claire tor Sin-clair) of the McNeil & Co. printing house of Phoenix MT. St. Claire Cor Sin-clair) is the hero of the hour here, having rescued from drowning the 10-year-old daughter of a millionaire widow who is here from New York spending the summer. She has just instructed her bankers by telegraph to place the sum oi $50,000 to MT. St. Claire's credit as an appre- citation of his heroic conduct by which he came so near losing his own life. Mir st.. Claire will henceforth bo en- abled to give up his rough journeys by stage coaches throughout the woolly wilds of Arizona and has decided to build a handsome villa near Honolulu in the Hawaiian islands.
 'Mr. Abrams while out to Dead Mans island today on a fishing tour, hooked an immense jewish weighing 64S pounds. which in it's efforts to es- cape lowed the boat in which was Mrs. Abrams and their beautiful little daughter Louise, into San Pedro har- bor, where vast crowd of people as- sisted them to land the monster. In it's capacious stomach were found lady's gold watch a pair of very val uable diamond earrings and a diamond ring of five carats, all of which wers presented to Louise Abrams, who. will be the proudest little girl in Phoenix the coming winter.
 ''The fish had evidently caught and swallowed some very wealthy lady who was spending the summer at some of the lonely resorts on the beach as she was in bathing. It is all a most profound mystery.
 There are many others here from Phoenix, but as they have not per formed any such deeds Of heroic valor, I will not find space to mention them in this letter
 'I have reformed since I last saw you, and am now on the upward path My invisible spiritual nature has been born again and wave of magnetic truthfulness now goes out from my once material brain and comes in con- tact with waves of insniration from spiritual forces that environ us from the higher realms of inspirational thought
 I have met with many ,thpijling ad- ventlres since leaving Phoenix and have gained many new ideas for great book I am going to write, which will be the coming effort~of my life. My experience of roughing it in the wilds of Arizona has given me a vast amount of data for that purpose.
 "I have decided to present you with my mantle, knowing you will wear it with honor and maintain the honor and dignity of the new school of fic- tion which I established under a fire of very severe and adverse criticism from the unenllghtened press of the United States at very dark period in the history of American journalism I paved the way for all the present great enterprises of modern journal ism sii'
