BACK SALARY, NIT!

The suit brought against Ora
ham county by Frank Dysart fo'
back salary was decided by Jndge
Davis at Tucson last week IN favoi
of plaintiff. District Attorney
Jones promptly appealed the case
A little more than a year ago
Judge Davis rendered practically
the same decision in favor OF Royal
"A. johnson, treasurer of Pima coun'
ty, but since then the Legislature
repealed the law.
Mr.. Jones had back salary due
him but rellnquished all claim to
same in order that he may defend
the county's interest. He is con
fident of winning the case on ap
peal.
The four principal grounds upor
which Mr.. Jones is contesting the
payment of this money are: Tha'
the law authorizing the payment O
back salaries was illegally passed
that 10 raise money to pay sam'
would necessitate the levy of ta'
in excess of that allowed by th'
Harrison Act; that the Act passed
by the 10th Legislature directing

Mole on the neck,
Money by the peck


Is a rhyme with which most of US are
familiar, but very few trouble to dive
deeply into the mysteries of "moleology,"
or are aware that there is, such a science
Nevertheless, il is a fact, and one worth
knowing, that every mole has it's own pc
cuiar signifcaton, and in bygone days,
when sorcerers and witches exercised their
magic arts, to the peril of their lives be-
fore casting a spell on any one, they were
always careful to find out all particulars
concerning their moles, or whether they
had any or not, for some of these ap-
parently useless discolorations were sup
posed 10 preserve a person from drown
ing. others from fire, and so forth, and Al
was therefore necessary to know against
what particular element they were proof
before practising their witchcraft on them.
The following. says the Philadelphia
Times, are some of the interpretations
placed upon moles by the old magicians,
and may interest those of our readers
who happen to be marked with any of
these beauty spots.
A mole on the right side of the fore
head, or on the right temple, signifies sud
den wealth and houors, and one on the
right eyebrow marriage with a person of
considerable fortune and an amiable dis
position; but a mole on the left of either
of these places is a sign that the person
will be frequently near the best of luck.
but by some unfortunate chain of circum-
stances. win invariably meet with dis
appointment before attaining It.
A mole on either cheek foretells that
the person will never rise above the medi-
OGRE In fame or fortune, although he will
never fall into poverty, and one that
is placed on the outside corner of either
eye denotes that the bearer thereof will
be in danger of violent death.
A mole on the nose gives success in
business, and especially In undertakings
of a speculative or gambling nature; on
either lip it is the sure indication OF an
epicure; on the chin IL denotes prosperity
and the esteem Of ones friends, and on
the throat that the person will become
rich by marriage. hsH3ne
In spite Of the old rhyme above quoted,
a mole on the neck does not bring money
by the peck, but shows that the person
who carries this mark through life will
narrowly escape death by drowning or
suffocation, but will afterwards rise to
great influence and wealth through an
Inheritance.
A mole on the right breast denotes ex-
posture to accidents of all kinds, but no
serious injury: on the left breast. a happy
but not rich marriage; on the chest, good
health and medium fortune through life;
one just over the heart shows a man will
be of an affectonate disposition, but tickle,
fond Of troYeiing and adventure. and not
to be greatly depended upon: In a lady
this indicates that she will be sincere IN
her attachments and have a large family.

Old Letters
The house was silent, and the light
Was fading from the western glow;
read, ill tears had dimmed my sight,
Some letters written long ago.
The voices that have passed away.
The faces that have turned to mold.
Were round me in the room to-day
And laughed and chatted as of old.
The thoughts that youth was wont to
think,
The hopes now dead forevermore.
Came from the lines of faded-ink
As sweet and earnest as of yore
I laid the letters by and dreamed
The dear dead past to life again;
The present and it's purpose seemed
A fading vision full of pain.
Then, with sudden shout of glee,
The children burst into the room,
Their little faces were to me
A sunrise in the cloud of gloom.
The world was full of meaning still.
For love will live though loved ones die;
1 turned upon life's darkened hill
And gloried in the morning sky.
