How "Bughouse" Was Born.

Did you ever know the origin of the
word 'bughouse'?" said Tom Ernst. a
prominent member of the Musicians
union, to some friends. We'll, a few
years ago 1 was playing clarionet in
the orchestra of a theater in Oakland.
We had a little old German playing
viola, who loved only his instrument
and himself. He was altogether to
quiet to suit the drummer, who was
always up to something, from tying
some ones instrument up and hanging
it in the flies. to mailing d plug hat to
the wall-which he once did because
the cornet player had the temerity to
wear it.
1t was the season for the big brown
electric light bugs, as they are called.
and the chance to do something to the
viola player was not to be lost to Mr.
Drummer. He gathered dozen or two
of the big beetles, and before the mus
icians arrived one evening squeezed
them through the sound holes in tn.
viola. Nothing happened until the
leader dropped his baton for the first
note of the overture, and then whang!
went the bugs as the bow struck the
strings. The little German if not bug
house was not far off, he nearly fell
off his seat, and on partly recovering
his composure began swearing in Ger
man. When the overture ended the
only explanation that could be OBJ
tanned for his erratic conduct was,
You take me and my fiddle for bug
house, hey?'"
house, hey? '"-San Francisco Call.

And she, of course, was sore.
The lawyer was a cunning chap
Who liked contingent fees:
He naturally advised the Maid
To nurse her injuries.
The damages the Plaintiff claimed
Were modest as could be;
She asked for fifty thousand pounds
Because she hoped for three.
The experts were disintrested,
So six they swore that she
Would die within a month or two,
Six swore contraree.
The jurors, honest men and true.
They thought and thought and
thought;
And then For plaintiff fifty thou
sand pounds the verdict brought
The jurors, tender hearted men,
Before they sought their bed,
Each one. he nobly went and asked
The Plaintiff him to wed.
Alas! Alack! Alack- day!
Twas ever thus in life!
They found the Plaintiff Maid no
more,
She was the lawyers wife.

The unhappy queen of the revolution
possessed two harps. both OF which

Henri Noderman. the principal fabri-
cant of harps in France at that time
These two harps, one of which was III"

After the death of the queen her pos
sessions in the Little Trianon wero
transferred to Versailles. where every
thing was sold by auction on June *
1894. and the following days. Among
them We're the two harps. One of them
was purchased by a noble lady. the
Baroness Dornier. whose descendants
afterward made a present of it to the
instrumental museum of the Conserve
tory in Paris.
The other harp. the queens favorite
instrument. was to have been sold ON
the same occasion. but when the time

the harp at that time, so he left 1t

after which time it was sent to Sweden.
in the year 1919.
Upon its arrival in Sweden the harp
was given by Count Cronstedt to his
foster daughter, who became Lady
Christina Louisa Gedda. After the
death of Lady Louisa Gedda. in the
year 1878, the harp was transferred to
her daughter, Mistress Amely Langen-
berg, born Gedda, and after her death.

son. Mr.. Alvar Langenberg. and to his

The present owner of it is not rich

instrument for himself so he has at

for it, yet Mr.. Langenberg has found
the sum too small. Now he intends to

Not oak, but gas flames show.

The kernels burst, reborn:
From yellow to snow white they hop
When Peggy pops the corn.
Now shake the salt out carefully. !
And pour the butter on:
Like snow the fluffy dainties be,
And now like snow they're gone!
But more is ready, Peggy cries:
She shakes d Plenty's Horn
What blooming cheeks. what shining
eyes
When Peggy pops the corn
And back my memory pensive goes
To country nights of old,
OF biting frost and flying snow
End whining winds a-scold.

WATER IN WARREN DISTRICT.
II Means a Great Deal When Encoun'
tered in Copper Mines.

The Bisbee Review thus jubilates
over the fact that water has been en-
countered in a number of properties
in the Warren district:
The fact that water has been
struck in the Wolverine & Arizona,
while it came not as a surprise,
forms link in the chain of infalli-
Bile evidence that while water is not
always associated with copper in the
Warren district, copper is invariably
associated with water When a
standard company commences de-
velcpment operations in this locality.
they count on water, and the cost of
handling it, as much as they count
on wages and powder and steel and
guides.
In every producing shaft in the
Copper Queen, water is in annoying
evidence. At the bottom of the
Gar which is the 400, a million gal
lon pump makes it warm for the wan
dering tenderfoot. In every shaft
of the Calumet & Arizona system
which has produced anything or
promises anything, the same cOndi-
tons obtain.
Now the presence of water in the
Wolverine and the Calumet e. Arizo-
ma is a profound source of congratu-
lation, although it temporarily inter-
feres with development operations.
In this camp water is a twin brother
to lime. an ordinary half sister to
iron, and at least a first cousin in all
conceivable richness and abundance.
1t is as welcome as 1.-The flowers of
May" as welcome as the stork perch
ing upon the palace of the rich re-
piner" who yearns for some immortal
soul to heir his riches and perpetu-
ate his name.
Lime, then iron, and then water, set
the heart of the mining promoter of
the Warren district to beating with
furious ecstacy, among whom may be
mentioned the faithful men who have
driven toward the heart of Mother
Earth in the Calumet & Arizona, VOL
VERNE, the Calumet & Bisbee, the
Wolverine, the Calumet & Pittsburg,
the Lake Superior & Pittsburg, the
Copper glance, the Modern and the
Bisbee West.

IN THE HUACHUCAS
Flattering Reports Still Coming IN
From the New Workings.

Bisbee was full of Huachuca men
last night, mostly from Montezuma
canyon and the Mitchell Development.
1t was ascertained from a pretty
straight source that the boys did not
want the situation in the Mitchell De-
velopment known until they could wire
in and get some stock. Superintendent
Piper was in the procession, but is not
responsible for anything stated in this
connection.
From what we have a right to con-
slider good authority. we are author
lied to say, there has been something
in the nature of a strike. They are
down about $50 feet with a one and a
half compartment shaft, and our in
formant asserts that they have been
in ore for 40 feet. Samples purport-
ing to have come from the strike,
were exhibited to the Review mining
man and as to their quality, needed
no outside opinion. Thew We're ex-
ceedingly high grade sulphides, tend
ing to glance in some Instances and TO
bornite or peacock in every instance.
The little gasoline hoist, according to
the statement of our informant, has
been hosting such stuff for two
never vouches for anything, until he
has seen it, but states the nature of
his authority, at the same time, 1t
looks like there was something good
in the Mitchell Development. Mine
owners in the MonteZuma district,
figure out that they are on the great
belt supposed to extend from Bisbee
to Cananea and other points, and that
the reported find corroborates their
story.
The Review has always stood by the
Huachucas, predicting that capital
would eventually vindicate their
claim as one of the richest sections of
the Arizona mining field. The Hua-
chuca Consolidated has done so, the
Curtis property has done so, the Elk
posed Reef is doing so. the Ureka is
in line, and if this reported strike be
fully confirmed. we will be in a posi-
ton to repeat, Il told you so."-Bisbee

WHAT DO SHEPHERDS THINka

When shepherds Ger their fluffy sheep,
Through long, long hours their watches
keep
And see the little lambkins leap,
o, what do shepherds think?
Out where the bees in blossoms hide;
Where soft grass grows on every side,
And where the sky is-O, so wide!
o, what do shepherds think?
Where little birds sing all the day long
The very sweetest kind of song;
Where all is good and nothing wrong
o, what do shepherds think?
And when the stars shine out so bright,
With such silvery sort of light
Out in the dewey field at night,
o, what do shepherds think?
Do they think how, once, long ago,
Those other shepherds saw the glow
That led them to that Manager low
0, what do shepherds think?
And are they glad they're shepherds,
too.
out in the field the whole night
through.
And do they love that Baby true?
