A JOKE ON CARRIE.
Yalensians' Pictures Show Her in a
 CarOusal

1alenslans Pictures Show Her in a
 Carousal
 A few members of the senior class at Yale are showing to their friends some photographs which are attracting great deal of attention and consider able amusement. The pictures are an aftermath of Mrs Nations visit to Yale, and were taken in Mrs Nations room at the New Haven house. after wonderful diplomacy had been brought to bear upon the Kansas prohibitionist. It seems that half a dozen of the most adroit and ingenious of the students obtained an interview with Mrs Ma tion, and then proceeded to ingratiate themselves so much in her good graces that she consented to pose for a few flashlights. Mrs Nation was asked to stand in the center of the room, while the students, who had just signed the pledge, stood behind her. It was sug- gested that Mrs Nation hold a water pitcher in her hand as an emblem of her belief She was delighted with the idea, but found the pitcher too heavy. For this reason she substituted for it a glass of water. The students, stand ing just out of range of her vision. told her to be sure to keep her eyes fastened on the lense of the camera As she strained her eyes in that direction the students surreptitiously produced pipes, cigarettes and a wIiskey bottle. The resulting photograph is a curious one. Tn the center of the group stands Mrs Nation, holding in her right hand a glass which, owing to the mysteries of the dark room, is capped with crown of foam. Around her are the students, one drinking from a whiskey bottle another lighting a pipe, others smoking cigarettes and two apparent ly in the last stages of intoxication. In another picture Mrs Nation is laughing, and the entire group sllg. gests a bacchanalian revel of the most strenuous kind.
 As souvenir of the occasion, Mrs Nation took with her the signatures which the men had signed to the pledge. Among the names which ap- pear are those of William Beebe, An son Phelps Stokes, Louis Linder and J. W. Niederpruem. None of these names appear in the lists of students.

POLICE COURT DoINGs.
Barbers Quarrel and Come Before the
 Court To-Day.

NULL AVL @|<tJt
 There was an Italian christening in the west end last evening and the Wind-up was hurried by an attempt of four of the guests to cut up a fel- low guest. Tn the city court to-day they responded to the names Domin- ico, Tony and Michael Zappone and Michael Violi. The injured man is Joe Massi At the request of Clerk McMahon, who prosecuted, the cases were continued to tomorrow under a bond of $200 each. The accused live at AT French street. The story is to the effect that they were celebrating the birth of a child to Tony, one of the accused. They drank freely and were quite noisy. Massi was one of the guests, but how the row started has not been told. Dr Galley attend ed the wounded man, who was severe " cut and hacked about the left thigh. The doctor believes two or three of the slashes are quite deep and danger Ous.
 Herman Gartz of West Main street was charged with keeping his saloon open on election day. As he was not present the case had to be continued to Friday.
 Michael McMahon and his family moved to Waterville yesterday. Ii has been four years since Michael worked, nevertheless he demands his meals promptly, and because supper was late last evening he became ugly. He was drunk and his sons and neigh bors tried. to quiet him. He woT1ld have none of their interference and in the melee that followed Mrs McMahon got severe blow in the right eve that completely closed it. Still. Mrs McManon could not say the blow was delivered by her husband. He was sentenced to sixty days in jaiI.s
 The next case was a quarre; be tween knights Of the razor. The ac- cused was Louis Morrona, whose shop is in Cables building on North Mair, street. It seems Louis MendIebaum whose shop is on North Elm street saw him at work on a customers head aIter union hours last Thursday even Ing. The next morning Morrona found outside of his shop lot of slips on which was printed the following Union men do not patronize this shop; it is unfair.".
 Inls made MoITona very mad and when he saw Mendlebaum he spoke to him about it. Mendlebaum could give him no information about the slips and this seemed to make Nor roma very angry. Finally Morrona struck Mendlebaum and then, to quote Mendlebaum, The looked in his pock- ct for something and thought it was about time to skip and I skipped" A fine of $25 and costs was imposed

WORST STORM In ITS HISTORY,
Jerome, Arix., suffers From q Severe
Storm-Mfning Property seri-
Ously Damaged.

Jerome, Ariz., Aug. 29.-This place
has just passed through the worst
storm in it's history. Water poured
down the mountain sides in raging
torrents, depositing debris and boul-
ders in the United Verde plant to the
depth Of from eight inches to two
feet.
A thirty-ive-foot embankment on
the Jerome railroad was washed out,
which will necessitate the transfer of
traffic for several days until the dam
age can be repaired. On the east side
ef Jerome, in Deception gulch, sew
eral thousand dollars worth of min
ing ma achinery, including hoist and
air compressors, belonging to G. W.
Hull, were completely ruined.
The property loss is estimated at
many thousands, but no lives were
lost. 1t is estimated that it will take
100 men so days to clear away the
debris and put the plant of the Unit
ed Verde company in the usual con-
dition.N
