A HOT DAY IN TUCSON.
trIdgcs OF the Town Marshal
and "a Had Alan.

"Yes-sir-ce," remarked one sizzling
afternoon last summer the big man
with the black sombrero and the
black broadcloth frock coat, relates
the Washington Post; "if you call
this hot, then you'd just turn hp
your cute little pink toes and
croak down where ! came from, IN
Arizona. | never will forget the
summer OF 1884 in Tucson. The heat
OF that year sure did cause some
queer complications among the pop
ulation. remember particularly
that running street fight between
George Conway, the marshal, and
Cal Angus, an Arizona dust hunter.
"Cal had been on drunk in Tue

greasers one afternoon because they
ducked when he demanded that they
play tag and puss-in-the-corner for
him in the hot sun, and the mex
night he put ball in the barkeep
of the Gee Whizz saloon because the
barkeep handed up glass of water
as chaser for Calls liquor. On the
night after that Cal made tender

but he didn't believe in this thing OF
having tenderfeet put to the ques-

liable TO give Tucson kind Of ar
unconventional reputation. SO he
looked up Cal, and, said he;
"'Cal, | don't want you TO think
that I'm trying TO choke YOU of

1T happened along toward ten
o'clock that night, in the Smoke Up
saloon. Conway was standing up at
the bar. alone, taking one for his
stomach's sake, when he heard Cal
a-coming down the street like cal
liope. Conway stood right quiet at
the bar, but he cleared ship for ac-
tion, and the boys in the back room
picked out hsHlthier spots on the
second floor. The barkeep yanked
open the trap and sought the cool
ness OF the cellar.
"Cal loped In with a whoop. Right
at the same instant he and the mar
shal began 60 pump without a word.
You never heard such Fourth OF
July rumpus in your life as that was.
The men were only about ten feet
apart, and yet the boys on the sec
ond floor were amazed TO hear every
shot in both mems guns go off.
'Scandalous shootin',' the boys
said, and IL really seemed as IL they
were justified. Conway was ordinai-
lily able TO push dime through the
side OF a 'dobe at 20 PAGES and Cal
had shown some gun-fanning in his
day that had earned him the respect
of everybody.
"Well, after they'd made all that
noise, we heard EN- talking quiet
like, and SO we made our appearance
ON the scene. There was Cal, his two
guns resting ON the bar and the
shells out OF 'em in his hands Same
with Conway. You never saw such
mystifed pair OF men in your life
as those two were for minute
Then the marshal gave his knee a

day had melted the bullets right out

hot lead bored holes in their gun
pockets and trickled down their
bootlcgs. and neither man had
known thing about IL until after
they got through popping away al
each other. OF course, IL was all OF
then. C-l and George tipped glnsses
TO each other and Cal took brace
and went back 10 the quartz hills.
But that was sure one hot day in
Tucson"

10 was the first bitter cold day OF

said. with an air OF mystery:

Dick Turner was not a brilliant re-

rather shabby. His mother and sister
could tell why.
But Betty felt sincere liking for
Dick. as he handed her carefully out
Of her cab and watched her go i'm the

where Mrs. Beezley kept boarders.
Once in her little parlor, Betty
threw herself on n sofa, and, hiding
