PRETTY WOMAN RoBBER.
She Boasts on the Witness Stand of the Achievements of Herself
 and Followers.

Rochester, N. Y., Nov. 21.-The trial of pretty Edna G. Bradley, the leader of one of the most desperate bands of robbers ever unearthed in this section, took place at the Canan- daigua court house today. Miss Brad ley was captured attired in boys clothing piloting two male compans ions through the almost impenetrable woods known as Klondike forest, at the head of the Canandaigua lake.
 She made full confession, telling how she had made her living by rob bery for several years, and was the ac- knowledged leader of the band, which raided in the Klondike woods. Miss Bradley is unusually pretty and about p years of age. She related to the jury how she climbed through farmhouse windows and unlocked the doors for her confederates.
 Miss Bradley flushed with pride as she told how her gang had repeatedly outwitted their pursuers and evaded capture for over three years. It is thought her beauty will get her off with light sentence.

Whatever may be said of the scien- tiic causes upon which the Rev. Irl R. Hicks bases his yearly forecasts of storm and weather, it is remarka- ble fact that specific warnings of every great storm. flood, cold wave and drouth, have been plainly printed in his now famous almanac for many years. The latest startling proof of this fact was the destruction of Gal weston, Texas on the very day named by Prof. Hicks in his 1900 almanac, as one of disaster by storm along the gulf coasts. The 1901 almanac, by far the finest. most complete and beautiful yet published. is now ready.

Joe Muiaaiton Insane.

The many friends of Joe MulhattOn will be pained to learn that he was brought over from Florence Friday night and placed in the territorial in- sane asvlum. The cause of hIs mis- fortune was not definitely learned, and it is to be hoped his demented condition will be only temporary. Mir. Mulhat.on is one of the most widely known men of humble preten- sions in the United States. In early life he was a commercial traveller and becam, such an adept in the tellingOf stories that he grew famousagd took rather a professional pride in spinning his warns. Eventually he began writing for the papers and contributed to many of the larger journals until the exagzeratiOns of Joe Utilization became almost as noted as the humOr of Mark Twain and Bill We. He was also well posted in the science of phranology and derived much pleas ura and some profit rom feeling the heads of the c.-erli public. Of late wears he has lived in Arizona and has been engarel5 most of the time in mining. He recently disposed of some good properties near Kelvin Republican.

DEMOCRATIC INCONSISTENCY.

The Prescott Journal Miner is an able and intelligent journal, but, just for change, it ought to read up on Attorney General Griggs' record little. It was c~i~c,s' decision that the constitute ras ;n the way of fed eraI control ct r.sss fiat caused the attorney gene-al of Chic to desert the republican @ mi support Bryan this year. P -4s -3ri "a.
 The point made in the Journal Miner in it's recent article was not in ree7r1 to apv decision made or con clusion arrived at by Attorney General Griggs in regard totrusts, but to point out that lIr. Olney, a democratic at topey general was the first official in that position to decide that the gen eral government could not deal with trusts and vet in the recent campaign Mr. Olney, was a supporter of Mir. Bryan who, if he hdd been elect ed, as head of the federal government, proposed to do a whole sale trust smashing act. When the attorney general of Ohio deserted the republican party, on account of At torney General Griggs' ruling and went over into the Bryan ranks, he could not have helped but find Mir. Olney there, who established a pre- cedent for Mir Griggs.
 This but demonstrates the unfair ness and inconsistency of democracy on this question. Olney, democrat honest, no doubt, in his investigation of this subject, decides that trusts cannot be controlled by the general government. Griggs, a republican, equally honest, investigates the same question and arrives at the same con clUsion. Olney, the Bryan supporter, is excused for his action, while the re publican for the same thing is de- nomced as a friend of trusts.
 Oh, inconsistency! Thy name is not democracy.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Some years ago it was feared that the accession of Nicholas to the ear ship would endanger the peace of the world; now it is feared that his death may have the same effect.
 Possibly Oom Paul may be willing to express his sympathy with Web Davis.
 The nerve of it. Croker denounc- ing Tammny for encouraging vice and offering to join in a crusade to suppress it. The cheek of it!
 Mir. Bryan has not yet decided whether or no it would have helped him had he announced the last cam paign ~as positively his last appear ance.'
 President Mckinley is said not to favor the proposed plan to cut down congressional representation. He recognizes the justice of the protest against the inoriinate power of the south, but he is said to think it is better to bear with this than to arouse sectional feeling.
 The next irrigation congress will be held in Buffalo. When they get this congress back to the big lakes they may carry or haul water to irri- gate the desert wastes of the arid southwest.
 Henry Willard started life as sanews- paper reporter and ended as a mil lonaire, but he didn't make his mil Hans at reporting. In fact, the chief Of reporting resides in the of excellent chances it offers getting something better to do.
 The democratic papers that charged that Secretary Long was merely wait ing until after the election to yield to the demands of the armor plate mak FITS should now have the grace to be ashamed of themselves. A reduction in the price of armOr from S545 to $40 a ton, scarcely half of what for eign nations are paying, is a tribute both to the secretary's ability and to the power of the United States to produce cheaPly.

Egg Thieves Ask Too Much.

A resident of Prescott, in the vi cinity of what is called the mob hill" section, whose family is not very large, concluded recently that nice fresh eggs for breakfast would be a valuable adjunct to the family larder. He accordingly secured a few choice hens of breed well known for their laying qualities and installed them in his back yard. Nice cosy nests, in boxes. were prepared for them and distributed at convenient points, and were provided with the most inviting imitation eggs that could be produced to encourage the hens to go into busi- ness.
 About two weeks ago the hens could not resist the temptation of these nests, with their shining nest eggs, and commenced operations. When the gentleman would think to look over the nests at night he would be rewarded for his efforts by secur- ing from three to five eggs, but if he neglected it till morning the nests would be found empty, even the ''glassy" nest egg disappearing with the others. This was kept up until his stock of nest eggs has been ex- hausted, and he has come to the con clusion that he has neighbors who are as fond of fresh eggs as his own family. He takes a philosophical view of the matter, though, and sug- gests that the purloiners of the pro duct of his hens are robbing them selves by taking away the nest eggs, and if they will return these he will do all he can to encourage the hens not to discontinue business, but he draws the line at being compelled to furnish the hens and buy new nest eggs both. If the parties who have been stealing his nest eggs will return them, he will replace them in the nests again so the hens can resume business.

IT WAS THE OTHER ATTORNEY GEN.
 ERkL.

Mir. Griggs has informed the presi- dent that he will have to look up an other statesman for the attorney-gen- erals job. The trusts, recognizing Mir. Griggs' merit m deciding that the federal government cannot consist ently control trusts, have probably promoted him and increased his pay. -Phenix Enterprise.
 Our Phenix contemporary is slight ly mixed up in the attorney-generals. It was Mir. Cleveland's attorney-gen- eraI, Mr. Olney, who decided that the federal government could not control trusts. Mr. Olney was a supporter and becker of Trust Smasher Bryan during the recent presidential sprint ing contest. too.

Looks like a Big Mine.

A fifty ton mill run test. without asserting, just made on the First Home mine in Big Bug, gave results of S37 .65 per ton. This ore was taken from the new workings, which shaft is down 130 feet. The same ore by a little sorting can be made to run from $50 to S60 per ton. The value of this ore in the new workings runs princi- pally in gold, and in the north ore chute which is 20 feet away the value is principally silver and lead. Ed Block and Mir. Gray certainly show confidence in this property. They have been working it steadily for one and a half years and doing good and substantial development work. It seems to be only a matter of opening up the ground to make this a good paying mine.

Wants to Practice on Katahdin.

A Washington telegram of recent date says: The Gathman Gun com panv, which claims Gathman's inven- tion is the most powerful piece of ordnance ia iae r., 'i9s proposed % the navy dc..c.me..- the ram Katahdin b. a-el as a ta in the trial of the gun, which is ;o take place soon under the Observa Ion of the joint army and nary board. Ma val ordnance experts have been en- deavoriny to devise a target which will present the resisting qualities of a battleship. but the Gathmln com panv wants practical test, and Is urging hat the katJhdin be sacTi- feed for the purpose, or, in lieu of that vessel, one of the civil war mOni- tors be used. 1t is not likely the de- Dartment will use she ram. but the proposition concerning a monitor Is more favOrablv viewed. The ka- tahdin was built on plans drawn in accordance with the suggestions Of Rear Admiral Daniel Ammen. Her onlv purpose in war would be to ram an enemy's ship. She has practically no armament. and her only chances for safety lies in heavy armOr plate protection
