Yuma County Fruit.

About two weeks ago Adam Ludy and several other Yuma citizens, sent a gift of six boxes of Yuma grown or anges and lemons to NJ. A. Smith, our delegate, to be given to members of Congress, as a sample of what Arizona can do in the fruit raising line. Upon receipt of the same Delegate Smith sat down and wrote letter of acknowledg- ment, which is published herewith:
 Washington, Jan. 6, 1903. Mir. Adam Ludy, Yuma, Arizona.
 My Dear Sir: I am forced even in my busiest hours to take the time to express my thanks to you for the ar ticles which you have been pleased to send me touching the county of Yuma. It is great contribution to our state hood fight and I shall show the same to senators having the question now un- der consideration. If there were thirty men like you in each county, manifest ing the same public spirit which you have so liberally shown, it seems to me our fight here would be easier.
 I have just received tonight notice from the express office that the six boxes of fruit which you have forward ed are now awaiting me. 1 shall do my best to dispose of them in way satisfactory to you, which means the proper advertisement of the great pos abilities of our territory. Thanking you again, remain,
 Yours very truly.

One of the latest inventions for ser vice in war times is called the war motor. Being built on wheels it can be operated by very few men, and is strongly recommended for seacoast de- fense. The only medicine that is strongly recommended by thousands of grateful people, who have used it as a defense against all stomach, liver and kidney complaints, is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. It cured them and will not fail in your case. Try it, if you are sufferer from loss of appe- tite, headache, insomnia, indigestion, dyspepsia, torpid liver, constipated bowels, or kidney troubles, and you will not be disappointed. Ask your druggist for copy of our 1903 Illus trated Almanac. It contains much valuable and useful information and is free of charge.

 Some one threw rock through the YAma Bakery display window Wednes- day night of last week, smashing glass to the value of about five dollars, and then walked off with one Shorey's big cakes. The miscreant was not appre- heuded, though his indentity is pretty known to the officers. It was a dirty trick and Shorey would rather have preferred to satisfy the hunger of several men than to have had his win dow shattered.

Tom Roberts "saw the Elephant .''

Tom Roberts, Q miner, who has worked in Yuma county camps for several years, went to Los Angeles the other day for 6 little rest and diver siou-or as he put it, to 'tsee the eleph- ant" He had saved up a nice little troll" and judging by the following, taken from the Los Angeles Herald, Tom ''saw the elephant" all right, but paid high for his fun:
 Saturday night the mining man was robbed of $500 and several hundred dol lars worth of nuggets in a house on Fifth street, by demi-mondaine, who is described as being a tall, handsome woman with Leroxidized blonde hair. There was $lOO Canadian bill in the stolen roll.
 The miner, who had been staying at an East Fifth-street hotel, strolled over to Central Park Saturday evening and sat down on one of the benches. The woman, who is said to haunt Central and other parks at night for the pur- pose of soliciting, seated herself on the miners bench.
 Finding that he was somewhat shy she made the advances and within an hour had him in tow. She yDok him to a small house on East Fifth street, where they stayed for two or three hours.
 When they separated the miner dis covered the loss of the money and mug gets. The woman either went through his clothes systematically or else had q pal in the house, who worked the panel game. It is said that the man is more anxious to get his money back than to prosecute. '"

Meeting of Colored People.

A meeting of colored people interested
in the John Hay Institute will be held
in the basement Of the Alfred street
Baptist Church tonight at 8 o'clock.
The meeting will be addressed by Mr..
NJ. B. Harlow, who has signlhed his
willingness to aid in furthering
the interests of the institution.
1t is claimed by those who have
interested themselves in calling the
meeting that the institute should
be in a more prosperous condition than
it is at present, as they aver considerable
money has been contributed which does
not seem to have been judiciously ex-
pended, or, at least, it has not produced
the results anticipated. The object of
the meeting will be to have other mana
gers selected to supersede those now in
charge and to make the institution more
potent in teaching young colored people
useful occupations. Mr.. Harlow, it is
understood, will suggest certain practical
lines upon which the institute could be
conducted which, he believes, will re-
suit in more satisfactory fruits. A large
attendance of colored persons is anticl-
pated. 1t is said that those now at the
head of the institute will be ready to
meet all objections that can be urged
against their management and will con-
test the right of those engaged in the
movement to side track them.

Scene at a Wedding.

There was an unexpected scene at a
wedding in colored church in this city
a few nights ago when a willing Barkis
and dusky expectant bride stationed
themselves in front of the pastor who
was about to make them tie a knot with
their lips which they could not unite
with their teeth. The prospective bride
and groom were glaring at the preacher
while he was proceeding with the service
and the audience were craning their
necks to see how the bride was attired
when a young colored woman in the as
sembly arose and entered vigorous
protest against the furtherprogress OF the
marriage ceremony, at the same time
holding up on high an ebony-hued in
FAINT which crowed and clawed at the
air. The female who had thus uncere-
moniously interrupted the proceedings
asserted that she and her charge had
prior mortgage on the would-be groom
and demanded a cessation of the mar
rage services. The officiating minister,
however, for reasons best known to him
self refused to grant the injunction and
proceeded with the ceremony, finally
pronouncing the couple man and wife.
