The Williams News, in an editorial telling the effects of the visit of Pres ident Roosevelt to Arizona, deplores that the only result was further ad- rertisement of the fact that Arizona furnished the bravest Rough Riders who scaled the forts on San Juan hill. This fact has long been conceded, and needed no further demonstration. We agree with the News that the Rough Riders of Arizona have already been xurfeited with praise, and it would have been far better if the President could have been impressed with other important resources for which Arizona is noted, besides it's ability to furnish brave soldiers.

took, and skirting the little town of
Broadstairs, they entered some undu-

within pistol shot, so unsatisfying
was the light, could Pope make sure
that each carried a musket on his

the man-of-war in the Downs. They
stopped and one challenged Pope's

A bar was thrust into the keyhole,
all three stormed and sweated, and
Immediately, amid great noise of the
rending of bolts and the splintering
of wood, the door flew open. There
was no light in the night to flow in
through the doorway, and the passage
was in pitch darkness. Pope, though
not a professional burglar, had pro-
vided for this. He pulled out OF his
pocket little engine whose invention
belonged to that age. 1t consisted of
a trigger and flint, and when the
trigger leaped clear flame sprang.
At this flame the Captain lighted

He then sprang up narrow stair

which of the two doors that stood be-

by! her seventy-one years could not
support the shock of burglary, and
she lay as dead in a swoon in her
nightgown and nightcap.
Pope dragged down the window
blind and lighted a candle in a stick,
then, casting a glance at the lean
high perched nose that shot out be-
twixt the closed eyes and the disor
dered frills of the nightcap, he seized
the candlestick and ran to the door.
Voices were to be heard upstairs.

Presently the sloop was within an
easy pull of Margate towr. Here Cap

the boat was launched. Pope and Crys-

was settled and nothing remained but
to go ashore, get the plate, and sail
away for Hamburg.
There were three men and Captain
Pope; these were to go in the boat,
leaving Crystal to see to the sloop,

him. The three were to plumber poor

he stepped out, and the hired men,
