Desert Lizards.

There is no place like the desert Tor
lizards. AS man rides through the
white sands OF over the black malapal
mountains in Arizona or southeastern
California and sees the fash and sour
nv of these brilliant and graceful crea-
lures the suggestion of death and soil
tu(e is brok az, and. heholding so much
life, he is brought to wonder II the
country is really desert or onl< Il lahd
to which a man is not adapted, for
here are animals which never drink,
vet frisk about through thorns ana
cactus and futten on the bitter plants.
Many desert prospector had lain
down with his burros to die and seen
on the rocks about him the black heads
of the chuckwalla lizards outlined
against the brazen sky. The chuck
wallas We're happy and corpulent with
good eating. 1t was their country.
For thousands of generations their an
cestors had never thirsted for water,
and plants which the starving burros
passed by furnished both food and
drink for the scaly natives on the
rocks. Next to the slow moving and
deadly ella monster the chuckwalla
is the largest lizard of the desert, being
from a foot to foot and Il half in
length.-Country Life In America.

Woman in Politics.

She Is matron, bright, witty and
ever ready with reparlee, but, Oh!
she is bitterly republican in politics.
At the boarding house she is ever
ready to defend her cause and many
a meal has been given zest by her
quips and jests at the expense OF
democrats. Among the boarders is
the chief clerk OF a department. of
one OF the largest houses in the city.
This clerk is also republican, but
appathetic: didn't know whether he
would 90 to the polls this fall or not :
one candidate was as good as the
other and it did not make much
difference who was elected, etc. etc.
This feeling was gall and worm
wood to the Jealous matron and
she did her best to change his view:
tried to have him register and prom
Use TO vote next November. He
shook his head and insisted that it
was of no special importance. Thus
matters stood till Saturday night,
when politics again held the atten-
tion of the boarders at the suppe,
table. Then entered the chief clerk
He said he would like to attend the
harvest festival at Fort Collins Tues
day but was afraid he could not he

him with a pleasant smile and asked

Brought Down From Heaven.

According to Mohammedan belief,
the first copy Of the Koran. or Alkoran,
their sacred book, was brought down
from the highest to the lowest heaven
by Gabriel on the mysterious night Of
AL Kbade in the month Of Ramadan.
This wonderful book, written in heav-
en- and bound in satin, jewels and
gold, was communicated to Moham-
med at different times during a period
of twenty-three years. This was done,
according to Mohammedan belief, eli
ther by Gabriel in human shape or by
God himself. When Gabriel acted as
translator and communicates, he did 30
with great sound Of music and
bells" God appeared either "veiled or
unveiled during Mohammed's waking
hours or during dreams at night"

AH'STR0UBLE.
MANAGER WONG OF GRAND
RESTAURANT ARRESTED,
Nav Be Sent Back TO China
Because He Does Not
Belong to the Mer-
chant Class.

An Wong is in trouble. An, IN
this case, is not an expression OF
sorrow, nor is it part OF the sher-
lock Holmes expression OF an, ma,
but it is the fist name OF Mr.. wong,
manager of The Grand restaurant.
The authorities say that All is bad
Chinese: bad because he IS not
merchant in the sense OF the wold as
interpreted by the United states
bureau OF immigration, which says
that to be merchant one must be
established firmly in one place and
buy and sell merchandise with as lit
tie labor as possible. Nov, every
body knows that there is not as 1T
tie labor as possible in running res
taurant, hence the Cninaman VINO
arises at a. M, and gets breakfast
tor the travelling man who wants to
catch the a. m. Colorado X South
ern and then keeps up that gait un
til ii p. m, selling cooked foods to
the hungry, is not merchant, but a
WOlhliE al tiiio Ii WY 'AN'
dental TO the real story, however.
The real story began when James
McCabe of the United States immi-
grafton service came to Greeley Tues
day forenoon aud informed Marsha
Camp that he wanted All Wong be-
cause he had information that the
latter had no legal right to be in this
country. The two officers went tt;
the Grand resi- aurant to interview
All. When asked for his papers lie
stated that he would 90 to his room
for these. Instead Of this he jumped
through the back door and disap-
peared like streak. The officers
spent from about l0:3O in the morn
ing until ) O'Clock in the afternoon,
searching for the Chinaman, and
we're finally given tip that he was
in his own place of business in Md
ing. They found him in the base
ment Of taat restaurant, covered up
with gunny sacks. He was a pretty
sorry looking object when dragged
forth and taken to the city jail to
await the afternoon train, when he
was taken to Denver to be tried.
Ah Wong has been here ever since
the restaurant was opened in the
early part of August and mas made
as good a citizen as Chinaman well
could. Under his management the
/ huc nf tho hn
sented has prospered, although he
owed considerable to merchants O!
the town for supplies. AS soon as it
was learned that he was in trouble
these merchants took steps to garni-
shee the bauk account of the restau-
rant keepers, so that very little was
lost. 1t is not known whether the
retauEaot will be discontinued, as it
is only one Of considerable number
of places belonging to the same COM
pany.
The arrested Chinaman will prob
ably be sent back to China, for al
though he produced an atfiadvit to
show that he mad been engaged in
mercantile business in Rock Springs,
Wyo., the fact that he would now be
classed as a laborer would be sufficient
grounds ror his deportation Mr..
McCabe pronounced him one Of the
hardest class OF Cinnamon the bureau
had to deal with, as he had come to
the United States through Canada
and had there learned to speak Eng
lish and also American customs.
