A Sea Gull in Kansas.

A few days ago a sea gull was shot
by a hunter near Fiat. Sea gulls are
rare birds in this section-in fact so
rare that the hunter who brought it
down didn't know what it was that he
had shot. So he brought it to town
and showed it to several who pro-
now almost extinct-the rose or roseate
Arctic gull-known to science as Rho
dosthetia Rosea. 1t attracted much at
tention by its beauty, it's downy breast
being of a rare, delicate pink and it's

A BAD CHECK.
A Young Man of Good Family in
Trouble

b. c. Gillette came to Tucson on
February 9th from San Francisco and
spent some time here. He came in the
interest of the Silver City smelling
works owned by the Hurst estate and
OF which his father D. B. Gillette is the
manager. He returned on March 18th
and was here several days, leaving the
city between two days, as every one
has TO do who goes out on the trains.
He spent considerable money while he
was in Tucson, and Friday he found
| that he was short of funds.
The Fashion saloon accepted his per-
sonal check for $40, and the proprietor
of the saloon did not question Gillette's
sincerity. His sudden disappearance
aroused suspicious and telegram from
Silver City said that Gillette's check
would not be accepted there as he had
no money in the bank upon which it
was drawn.
A warrant was placed in; Sheriff
Wakefield's hands for the arrest of
Gillett, and telegram was sent to the
Silver City authorities to hold him il
he came there. This morning infor-
nation was received by Sheriff Wake
field that Gillette was arrested there
today and would be held until an Off Ger
from this city arrives.
Young Gillette is son of D. B. Gill
| lette, who is well-known in Arizona as
the representative of the Hurst estate.
The young man had been engaged by
the Hurst smelling company as ore
purchaser.
Owing to Gillette's connections the
matter has been kept as quiet as pos
sible. and Citizen reporter was unable
to learn just how the young man fell,
but it is reported that he lost his money
gambling and drew the check in hopes
of being able to straighten out the
matter when he returned to Silver
City. He will probably not be brought
back to Tucson and the charge will be
withdrawn upon the liquidation of the
debt and costs incurred.-Citizen.
