WANTED NO MISTAKE MADE
But If He Was Dead He was Will
 ing to Be Buried.

The following is a true story which happened in Phoenix some time ago, but was not made public i'll recently, and because it is a true story the names are withheld, all the parties to the in- cident being well known.
 A certain citizen was sitting In front of a certain hotel Fate one night quietly enjoying jag that had got the better ef him and carried him away into state of unconsciousness. A couple of his frienis came along. one of them local undy rtaker, and knowing that the man had a room in the hotel, they thought they would do him kindness and put him to bed. So they lifted him bodily from his chair and carried him up stairs to his room, where a cot was spread out for his convenience and the man placed upon 1t. Just as the two friends were preparing to leave him the intoxicated man recovered con- science sufficiently to recognize the ur- dertaker. He supposed, of coursp. tha. wherever he was that gentleman was in attendance professionally. and as he rolled the thought around in his tangled mass of brains a question seemed to arise in his mind whether or not he was quite ripe enough for such atten- ton, so with herculean effort he thrust out one of his hands and said:
 "Please-feel my-pulse-and see--lf l am--surely dead"

attaining his majority was elected dis trict attorney of Navajo county on the republican ticket, over a populist op- ponent. He made faithful and effic- tent officer and enjoyed the respect of all who knew him.
 Some years ago he opened an office in Tempe for the practice of his pro- fession, and was later married to n young lady he had formerly known in Illinois. A year or two after coming to Tempe he endured a long siege of typhoid fever. and though seemingly making a good recovery ne was never as strong as before, and in his weak ned condition he contracted pulmo- nary trouble which has finally caused his death. While in good health he al- ways took an active part in politics and was considered an able and even a bril- liant talker.
 During the republican county con vention of 1896 when the party was en- gag5d in something of a family fight over the silver auction Mir. Buck made a speech that won for him the respect of both factions. though the fight was bitter and he was very pronounced in his views. From that time forward his counsel in political matters was fra- quently sought, and the nomina- tion for district attorney would have been given him at the subsequent con- vention had he not refused the offer cf his many friends. He felt then that his interest lay in the building up of his private practice. During late years, however, he has suffered greatly with the complications of his disease, and has been able to work but small part of the time.
 In his death the republican party loses a capable representative, the ter ritory an able and a patriotic citizen. and many who knew him true and faithful friend.

SATURDAY NIGHTS METEOR
It Made Fiery Show Over Broad
 Area.

Dispatches received last night from Flagstaff, Yuma and Needles, Cal state that the descent of the great meteor witnessed in Phoenix on Sat urday night, was observed in those places The advices from Needles say that other strange astronomical dis turbances preceded and followed the flight of the meteor Showers of falling stars appeared and fingered in the heavens for some time after the most brilliant illumination disappeared, creating a phenomena that was at onca unaccountable and spectacular Easing calculations upon probable dis tances and the appai ent size of the blazing ball. astronomers say that the mets or was of remarkable size. Ob- servations made at other points are confirmatory of the account printed by this papsr yesterday morning.
 The meteor was first observed here almost directly overhe ad and it tray eled for a great distance to the west, brilliantly illuminating the heavens. As it neared the earth the enormous mass bursted, sending forth myriad of shy-4Ochtts III ail ulfectlons. int SD ctacle was witnessed here by but few persons Astronomical disturb ances wsre witnessed in Phoenix earlier in the evening, but none of them were of singular character.
 l.. NJ. Dey of the local observatory said; We observed the fall of the meteor and judged that it was of un- usual size. The illumination was So great that buildings were brightaned and the leaves of trees plainly re- fected the fight. l should judge that, the meteor could have been witnessed for hundreds of miles around. It prob ably struck several hundred miles out on the dtsert."

The farewell week of the popular Ru- ble Theater company commences to- night, when the celebrated comedy en- titled Nell Gwynne will be produced by special request of many patrons of the Park who want to see Miss Slemmons once more in the rollicking part of Nell" a role that is particularly fitted for her style of actirg. The play itself made an immense hit when produced two weeks ago and will doubtless draw another large audience on this occasion, the last performance of the play. Five different plays will be given this week, all of which are favorites and will tend to make this the banner week of the season.

Rev. j. NJ. Lowden of OineyviIe, r. l.,
discussed The Element of Obligation"
The Rev. Charles L. Ebeman of Lam
caster Pa, spoke on The Spirit of Con-
secration," in part:
The genius of Christian Endeavor has
ever sought to interpret the need and the
reality of conservation.
Our young people have been trained 10
recognize the great principle of the King
dem of God, that the life must wholly be-
long to God, by a willing conscious choicS.
This great spiritual factor was incor-
porated into Christian Endeavor, from it's
very beginning, and, I believe, that God
iieiS 81 lStletllY Dl6SSSN our great lioNS-
ment, because among other great truths,
the supreme Importance of this spiritual
principle has been insisted upon, and it's
practical application has been fostered.
Conservation, therefore, involves a
whcle-hearted surrender to God, an entire
dedication to His service. a life wholly
given over into the Divine Hand. not
grudging the word, a single strand of en-
ergy or strength
The ministry of Christian Endeavor,
however has uplifted the great ideal of
conservation. aud the reality of consecra-
ton lies at the foundation of this mag
niiicem structure, the anniversary of
which we are celebrating to-day 1t has
been the shining pathway. marked by the
footsteps Of Jesus Christ, along which the
soul is led out of impotence. into poten
tial service, out of feebleness into posi-
tive spiritual strength, out of the abject
human into the regnant divine. The saved
| life, according to the divine plan, should
at once enter upon an ooedient career of
service.
Rev. Lewis Malvern of Portland pre-
sided over the afternoon session. Ad-
dresses were delivered by Rev. c.. A..
| Freer of Columbus, o.. and others.

Won WALDERSEE'S VIEWS.
Has Sounded Foreign Generals Upon
Withdrawal of Troops From
PeIxin,

Pekin, Feb. 2.--Count Won Waldersee de-
MES that he has any definite views re-
garding the evacuation of Pe5in, al
though, should China carry out the pun
ishments ordered to be inflicted he has
tentative ideas, and he has confidentally
requested the foreign generals to express
an opinion regarding the withdrawal from
Pekin of oil troops except legation guards
to the number of 1000, leaving $500 to
guard the railroad and other points.
Their views with reference to the num-
bers to be left behind, he says, are large
ly at variance Mr.. Conger, United States
minister and Gen. Chaffee, are in
favor of no more than hundred Ameri-
cans as a legation guard. Gen. Chaffee
thinks that If there is to be an interne-
tional guard for the railroad the United
States should share in the responsibility
and keep the necessary number of troops
to conserve American interests. He
thinks, however, that such an army
would be only temporary.
Next week Count Won Waldersee in
tends to leave for Shan Hal Kwan to in
spect the garrison there He says he VIII
return to Pekin. II Is thought possible,
however, that should the foreign ENJOYS
agree regarding the punishment of Chi
nese officials, should the Chinese accept
and should there be no prospect of fur
Their trouble, he will continue the jour
ney to Shanghai, where he would remain
until April when, as he has been DELI
nftely informed, the German government
advises his return to Berlin.

TO BUILD THE CRUISERS.
Newport News, Philadelphia and
Bath Appear to Have the Call.

batn Appear TO haNe the CRIl.
Washington, Feb. bids for the con-
struction of three protected cruisers
were opened at the Navy Department TO-
day. Nefie and Leavy of Philadelphia at
$2,7l0 600; the Newport News Shipbuilding
Company at S2,741,00 and the Bath Ship
building Company at $2,75O000, appear to
be the successful bidders for the three
cruisers.
The bids must be examined carefully
by the naval bureaus ITO ascertain the eX-
act effect of the cuts in the specifca lions
made by the bidders, before any definite
conclusion can be reached. The principal
officials of the department express the
opinion, however, that the bids of Neafie
and Levy, Newport News, and Bath can
be accepted pointing to the fact that the
deductions from the specifica tons made by
these bidders do not exceed greatly those
made by the department in the case of
the battleships recently awarded. 1t Is
doubtful if Cramp or the Union Iron
Works have been unrepresented before
in any bidding since the birth of the new
navy
The three protected cruisers are design
ed to be the most form dable vessels in
the world of their class closely resem-
bling the second class armor5d cruiser
Tupe. They will be named Char. eston, St.
Louis and Milwaukee.
