ARIZONA KICKLETS.
The Famous Western Editor Meets
With a Misfortune.

" I'LL a A+A1ANA tN-l4@e
The writer of this editorial is not the
editor of the Arizona Kicker
He is the horse editor of the Kicker
on a salary Of So per week, with bullet
holes thrown in.
His style is somewhat Jerky. This IS
because he has to jerk out a gun so
often.
Jim Henso. the editor and owner is
lying in bed with a bullet in his shout
der. and it falls TO the lot OF the morse
editor to write the particulars OF a Id
mentable occurrence.
Mr.. HeIlso desires us to observe at an
early stage that, three months ago,
when his fourteenth victim was laid
away in the Kicker editorial graveyard,
there was every hope that no further
shooting would have TO be done for
Despite this hope. a fifteenth has
The horse editor could ring in several
scriptural quotations at this juncture
TO point a moral. but the smallness OF
his salary forbids extra exertion
The name of the fifteenth man was
Colonel Thompson. late owner Of Gray
Wolf Rancho. and person widely
known i'm This section of Arizona as an
iranufsive hot tempered man. On four
different occasions he pulled a gun on
the writer of this, and his record was
that of a shooter
In addition to knowing the cattle
business from A to Z. the colonel was
a man of considerable education and a
student of history. 1t is believed that
he had a history of America about
ready for the press when the misfortune
occurred
Some hve years ago the Kicker pub
Ished an article in which Nero was
not mentioned in the most hattering
terms. Colonel Thompson at once took
exception to the article. claiming that
Nero was man of shining character
who had been maliciously vilifed. The
paper apologized in its next issue, but
the incident ranked in the colonels
mind
AT a later period there appeared in
the Kicker a ten line item about Lu
cretia Borgia the historical poisoner-
Again Colonel Thompson came to the
front. He vigorously contended that
Lucy had been maligned by history to
prevent certain guilty parties from be-
ing exposed, and to placate him an am
pie apology was published.

Stick to Books and Not Court.

Topeka, Kans., July 2S.-Thc members
of the public school boards of Kansas
evidently do not indorse President Roose-
velts anti-race suicide policy, for a ukase
has just been issued prohibiting teachers
in the schools from indulgng i'll the very
pleasant pastime OF counting or the more
serious one of marrying.
This action on the part of the school
boards was brought about by charges
that at several schools the male and fe-
male teachers were so busy making love
to each other that they had little time 30
give to pupils, and that in others newly
married pcdagogues were found to do less
effective work than they did when single.
