MIR. MAxINfs HAND.

''I read with more than ordinary in terest your recent interview with Hud- son Maxim. the inventor of smokeless powder" remarked New York mer- chant "One reason why 1t was inter esting to me was because of an un- usual incident which was the means ot my becoming acquainted with Mir. Maxim.
 The inventor you know. has but one hand. the other having been blown off while he was experimenting with some high explosive The first time ever saw MT. Maxim was one night on an elevated railroad train. He was stranger to me at that time. and my attention was attracted to him by the actions of a half drunken burly rufiian. who sat in the cross seat opposite and persisted in annoying him in one way and another. A quietprotest from the stranger brought a torrent of vile Ian guage from the ruffian. accompanied by a hostile demonstration and and pro- fane threat to punch his head. The stranger paid as little attention to the outrage as possible and kept on read ing his newspaper. 1 noticed that the stranger had an artificial left hand.

When he got up to leave the car at his station the ruffian jeered al him. and getting up from his seat followed him out Ii wasn't my station. but feeling almost certain that the stranger would need some protection, followed them out of the car The stranger went down the stairs first. the ruffian a few steps be ra -t-r..

Instead of accepting the opportu- nity to go his way. he made directly for the stranger. who sent out q good right l handler. which caught the scoundrel on the point of the jaw and knocked him clean across the curb and landed him all in a heap in the gutter. where he lay quivering like 8 beef hit with an ak. A grewsome part of the midnight incident was that as the stranger landed his | knockout blow his artificial hand be- came detached and fell to the pavement with a clatter I confess that I was a little startled at this. and before could recover myself he had picked ur his artificial hand. put it under his arm and walked off.

ARIZONA's EXHIBIT
The Best in Copper at the Paris Ex-
 position

J. A Porterie yesterday received 2 letter from an old friend and classmate in Paris. John Le Grsnche, in which he says Arizonas' mineral exhibit. espec- tally of copper. is the best at the ex- position. The next best is Chile's ex- hibit. Mir. La Granche, who is a well known mining engineer and had heard much about the mineral resources of Mexico and their recent development. writes that he was surprised to find that the exhibit from that country con- sisted principally of things to eat-ta- males, enchiladas and -con-carne.
 It is his opinion that the exhibit from this territory will do a great deal of good and attract to Arizona miners and capitalists who had never heard of it before.
 Mir La Granche is a Gascon. like and graduated with Mir Porterie from the famous school of mines at Grenoble.

LAwTON's IDEA OF IT.

When examined by the war depart ment investigating committee. General Lawton's answers showed him every whit a soldier. Asked where he fixed the responsibility for not having tents for the sick. he replied
 T don't fix it at all because 1 don't think there is any responsibility about it."
 Replying to the question as to wheth- CT the navy should not have control of the transports. he answered. promptly:
 No. indeed"
 You think that the army ought to have control of them2"
 Absolutely was the lsconic reply.
 While they are acting together? D. Colonel Denby asked.
 Lawton's reply was as quick as a flash;
 They won't act together. That is where I make my point. Two men can not command the same affair. r."-Bosten Journal

ARIZONA MEAT
Grain Must Be Used to Make Stock
 Ill Demand.

Despite the theory of vegetarians that meat is particularly unwholesome in warm weather. Arizona people consume immense quantities of flesh every year. There are a dozen butcher shops in the city. many of them better equipped than markets in the great cities, all have cold storage plants attached and all of them are prosperous. A local dealer said yesterday to a Republican representative that beef was so far in the lead of other meats. in popularity, that he sold four pounds of it to one of all other kinds. Young lamb when ob- taiua ble. is always saleabIe and there is 3 steady demand for pork. although it is generally accepted idea that pork is more heating than any other kind of met. Virtually all of the meat sold in Phoenix is raised in the Salt River val ley with the exception of ham and bacon. some of which is sent in from California and is taken from stock raised in the middle western states. and some of which is packed in Kansas City The various kinds of sausag ges are not eaten so much in summer as in cold weather. nor is there much de- mani for liver.
 Regarding the talk which crops out ssmi-occasionaly regarding the estab- Hzhment here of a branch house by big eastern packers, in Phoenix. MT. P. T. Hurley said yesterday that there was no likelihood that such move would be made There would not be busi- ness enough in the entire territory in
 
 any size running for month" said Mir Hurley. "and even if there were no competition to be found among the smaller butchers the amount of avail able business would not justify the bringing of a plant here. and all the big packers know t. In the second place the alfalfa fed stock of this coun- try is not wanted outside the terri tory and the peculiar flavor of their flesh is far from equal to grain fed cat tIe- O+ course when diet of alfalfa is topped off with a couple of months of grain feed. prime beef may be secured. i but as rule grsin is too high priced to feed generally
 Mr. Hurley showed letter from the Cudahy branch al Los Angeles. stating that they had bought no Arizona hogs for long time.in fact. were afraid of l them. as hogs raised on alfalfa and no 1 rraiu have fishy taste. not only in ! bacon and ham. but in lard and fresh | pork The Cudahy company is at pres | eut buying ifs hogs ip Kansas and | pa wing S5-15 and s5.S5 in Los Angeles |
 Another letter from the Maier Pack | ing company at Los Angeles said that | no more Arizona hogs would f,e bought 1 unless grain fed. In this information | there is valuable hint to Arizona | stockmen and it is apparent that there | is money in hogs. but will take grain to l bring it out.

MIR. M'KINLEYs FIRST VOTE.

President Mckinley and senator Scott of West Virginia, both Ohio boys. were m the same regiment in the army of the civil war. They cast their first votes for Lincoln in 1884. T shall never forget that first vote said Senator Scott to friends around him al the Wal ton. Some of the ballots were cast in to soap boxes, some into candle boxes. or any old receptacle. There was no Australian ballot law there. l remem- ber conversation l had at that time with Mckinley. He spoke of study of the law. and speculated in regard to his future It was special wonder with him whether he could reach position which would bring him influence enough to elect him a probate judge in his native county.
 Senator Scott al that day as little ex- pected to be senator of the United States as Mckinley expected to he president It was intended that he should be a physician but the war broke in upon his studies. and after the war he was guided into new avenues. Finally he planted himself al Wheeling i German citizen of that place urged him to go into politics. The old Teuton had been given a lively shaking up in the days antedating the war He was publisher of republican paper and voted for Lincoln Sympathizers with secession sacked his office After the war he and Scott were associated in a way. You must go into politics shust now right away" he would say to va lick dose tam democrats und make West Virginia a republican state.
