It is understood that the Anaconda

operations for the fiscal yehr ending

After all, 1t is the sentiment of the
people thai counts, and that sentiment
in this vicinity is unqualifiedly in favor
of that good and substantial beverage,
Centennial beer. There are other brands,
but none that meets so heartily with the
approval of the people of this great
commonwealth. Many of them had

Man Assaulted With an AK in
Park Canyon.
HIS HEAD BADLY CUT
ASSailant Dealt the Blow From Behind
Trouble For Grocery
Men.

A complaint charging Baptiste Strozzi,
a vender of milk, residing on a ranch
near Park canyon, with assault in the
first degree. was issued from the county
attorneys office this afternoon and filed
in Justice Harrington's court. The
charge was made by L. G. Parrin, who,
with his brother, also lives near the cam
yon. The complainant told Roy $. Alley,
the deputy attorney, that about 10 o'clock
Monday night L. Parrin. his brother; NJ.
Machette and another mar We're driving
past Strozzl's ranch in a wagon when
Strozzl came out and stopped them. They
talked awhile and the wagoners started
to drive on, but just as they did so
strozzi stepped up to the rear of the
vehicle n dealt L. Parrin a blow on
the back of the head with an AK. Parrin
was badly injured, his scalp being, cut
and his skull crushed.
Some time ago l.. Parrin was assaulted
while passing through the canyon, and
although he could not positively identify
the man that did the deed, he has al
ways suspected that Strozzi had some-
thing to do with it. On that occasion he
was also badly injured.
1t is possible that Parrin will lose his
life from the effects of the wound he re-
ceived Monday night.
About a dozen complaints accusing
grocers of selling liquor without a retail
license were issued by the county attor-
ney late this afternoon. 1t is said that
in three or four of the twelve the Liquor
Dealers association, which i%nstigated the
raid. has evidence sufficient to convict
without trouble, as none Of the parties
possess any kind of a license.
The case of the state against w. F..
Webb, one of the druggists accused of
having sold liquor at retail without a
license, was dismissed by Justice Nichols
this afternoon. AL the suits have been
fixed up up in fact. the druggists hav-
ing signed an agreement to never again
sell liquor in the manner charged.

70 the Interpreter in the corridor OF the Hotel
Oriente. We old stagers all laughed We knew
what was coming. but contented ourselves with
a smile.
What are you laughing att the newcomer asked.
1T may be joke TO you. but this blooming hotel
furnishes the woodwork, and that is about all.
There isn't a stitch Of bedclothes. a mattress or
anything on my bed but a bolster"
We sui laughed. The Interpreter looked In

Il got all ready for he'd, raised the mosquit TO-
netting and found that there wasn't thing for me

We all smiled pityincly and went on with our
tales Of camp and the firnC-ne. There no use
az trying TO tell newcomer that here in Manila We
never used q mattress. set Of springs pillow or
sheet. We would have deprived him OF what
he had come so far 10 learn 10y personal experience

saying:
The proprietor says sir tina, he will have you
sent sheet but he IS sorrY to say. sir. that he
has not mattress. nor qIilt. nor pillow, except
the bolster that j. on your bed

THE PRTTATE'S REASON.
eveland Plain Dealer.

From The Cleveland Plain Dealer
A Cleveland tells a story that matches the
tale Of The English soldier who was reprimanded
for not polishing his shoes The offender saluted
and looked down az his footwear. His shoes were
certainly polished and he stared back at the
officer.
The latter pointed to the soldiers heels
Look behind he said sharply.
The offender gravely sauted.
"A British soldier be said never looks behind"
And the officer had nothing more 70 say.
The story told by the Cleveland man is a little
different, but il shows the same quickness OF rep
arttc. II IS the story OF a comrade who served in
Cuba. He was ordered to bring wood for the
campfire. He was slow paced fellow. and took a
good deal Of time in executing the order. After q
while he was Sc returning with a small log The
ofhcer who had given the order him coming
Hls anger rose at the mans dilatory movements
Here. you. he cried. across the camp ground
"double-quick. there
The soldier looked up saluted and plodded along
When h neared the officer the latter was in 4
white heat.

reared.
What orders. SIR
Didn't you hear the order TO doub!e-quiek?"

well. Why in blue bazes didn't you double

The soldier put his heels together and saluted.
Then he draWled:
because, sir. didn't hear the command

And the officer hadn't another word to say.
