An Ingenious Yarn.

Bob GrOm was the best konwn pio-
neer in Central Arizona The old man
was more than eighty ears old when
he died, a few years ago, and he had
been in the territory SO long that no
body knew when he came He spent
a fortune in locating mining claims
in the central part of the territory, but
never realized anything from them. A
short time after his death the value of
his claims were discovered. Gram was
a ranchman as we'll as a mining man,
and he was so eccentric that people
who knew him never tire of telling
about their experiences with him.
Once he was caught out in a binding
rainstorm. Darkness overlook him and
his companion in the desert. They
were unable to find their way, and
their matches were so wet they could
not light fire brands Finally Grom pull
ed handful of wet sulphur matches
from his pocket and called his sheperd
dog He rubbed the wet sulphur mat
ches on the dogs tail until it glowed
with PHOSPHORUS, and then ordered
the dog to go home The men followed
the glowing tail without trouble

Walter Harris was an arrival from
San Francisco Thursday morning. Mr..
Harris, whose. home is in Carson and
was formerly cashier at the agency of
the State Bank and Trust company in
TonOpah, and who is now in the bro
kerage business in San Francisco, deal
ing in Tonopah stocks, reports that as
yet there is little call for the stocks
of the mines in the great camp. He
says that this is probably dut to the
fact that the people of the metropolis
have as yet not awakened to the great
ness of the camp and it's possibilities
He reports North Star sales as pick
ing up rapidly and slight increase
in the other mines. 1t is only matter
of short while, he asserts, until the
demand for Tonopah stocks will be ex
cessive

Doing Big Business.

Elsewhere in these columns will be
found q notice of the State Bank and
Trust Company, in which it is stated
that six per cent dividend has been de-
clared by the Directors. This is the
second dividend of a like nature that
has been declared in the past year and
only goes to show the enOrmity of the
business that is being done by the
local bank. When the new directors
assumed charge of the bank it was in
a very depleted condition and very
grave doubts were entertaip-- as tc
the final outcome. Howeve- ~...er new
management, clean buslDss- principles
have been followed and, to use a vul
garism, a man has been given a run
for his money. No doubt, the next 81,
months will see another dividend de
clared of like proportions.

There is at least one gentleman in
this city who is sorry that he attended
the Comstock carnival, for as a result
OF that visit he is being severely
"joshed" by the ladies of his neigh

1t seems. according to the story re-
lated by his wife, that while in Virgin
Ia he met number of friends whom
he had not seen in years, as is custo-
mary on such occasions, smiled so
often that he became "snakey," that
is to say he was seeing things"

What in the world are you doing in
there?"
"Pick-hic-ing-you a-hic bouquet"
This was more than the good wife
could stand. She jumped out of bed
and ran into the parlor The sight that
met her gaze she will never forget.
Sure enough, there was John sitting
in the middle of the room on the
newly-purchased velvet carpet, with a
pair of large scissors in his hand and
cutting out the beautiful roses-in the
carpet-in order to get nice bouquet
for his wife, supposedly to square"
himself for coming home so late.
If the reader only knew to whom we
referred he would remember having
seen a short personal in the paper
some time ago where Mr. So and So
had gone to Valley Springs for a short
vacation and in another column where
Mrs. So and So had gone to San Fran

THE WALKING WAS BAD.
John Patrick Comes to Grief Over q
Bogus Pass.

We are going to relate little story
that perhaps embodies a moral, name
": Do noe ever get on q train with
. pass that is not signed by lead
ing railroad official. for if you do anu
meet the fate that happeded JohL
Patrick, for many years pressman
the State Printing Office, you we
have to walk home. wow it is prove,
bial that printers and pressmen alike
never have a cent on earth after a
long run. no matter what the wages
paid may be and Mr.. Patrick was no
exception to this rule. At any rate,
some years ago, he had money enough,
or better still, nerve enough, to reach
Reno and he was in a sad dilemma as
to how he was going to get to San
Francisco without walking. It 80 hap
pened that he met Al Linn, also an
employe 1t the State Printing ONCE at
that time and who had about as much
influence with the railroad a. the devil
has with the Lord. He related his
troubles to Linn, who Immediately pro-
ceeded to write pat" q pass. He
must have impressed the latter with
his influence, for when the train start
ed for Frisco Pat" was there like q
duck. Some miles out of Reno the con-
ductor came along and asked Patrick
for his ticket. pat" smiled the smile
OF one who rides on pass and pulled
out his documentary evidence. 1t read:
20. X. Linn" The next pat" heard
was a short toot and the train was
brought to a standstill. Mr.. Patrick
was informed that he had reached the
destination his pass called for and he
was elected from the train.
Now, it would not have been near so
bad had Pat not had about fifty
pounds in his getaway bag, for it
made the walking rather difficult and
it was not until the next day that he
returned to Reno and began a vigor-
GUS campaign for the capture of a
rank outsider so far as railroad cir
cles were concerned, by the name of

Some Chatting Dish Recipes.

Cayiare toast-Have a shallot peeled and
chopped very finely and put 1t in the chat
ing dish with half an ounce of butter. Stir
this over the flames long enough to warm
the shallot, then add the contents of a
small pot of caviare. Stir slowly with a
wooden spoon and add half teacupful of
tomato sauce which has been boiled till re-
duced. Squeeze In a few drops Of lemon
juice and let all get very hot. Turn onto
buttered toast and serve.
Fish rechauffe.-Put two tablespoonful
of butter into the chatting dish, with water
in the lower one, and when melted add
some shredded fish-halibut or Goldfish would
be sui.ab then stir in half as much bread
crumbs as fish, two beaten eggs, two table
spoonfuls of milk, a teaspoonful of anchovy

PARIS, January 10, 1908.
The great social event among the smart
set here in Paris has been skating on the
Horseshoe pond in the Bots. This frozen
surface has not the slightest resemblance
to horseshoe; they simply call 1t by this
characteristic name to give 1t an English
cachet. The weather has been ideal for the
sport, and the French woman certainly put
forth more energy in this unusual exercise
than one gives her credit for her skating
being both skillful and graceful. The fash
ionable club, the Cercle du Bots. invited
members to attend Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday, and on those days a dis
tinguished gathering thronged the Horse
shoe pond. Mating had been laid. which,
together with burning brazers, wicker
chairs and foot warmers. provided COM
fort for those who watched the graceful
skaters. Five O'Clock tea was served in
the club house, and the scene was one of
much gayety and beauty. The gowns worn
by the women who dropped in because 1t
was the ultra chic thing to do were superb.
Among the distinguished skaters were the
Infanta Eulalia of Spain and Mrs. Corn
wallis West. who formerly was Miss Je-
rome of New York and before her present
marriage the widow OF Lord Randolph
Churchill. The infanta's costume was very
simple and practical. consisting of short
skirt. covert coat an ermire tippet and
muf and black toque. You have so much
opportunity in many sections of the states
for this fascinating sport that l am certain
you will be interested to learn about some
of the costumes worn by less exalted per-
sonages during the days when the skating
was "on.'
Fur boleros and short skirts were the
subjects of conversation on the Ice. Have
you seen Nine. A. s sables?" How do you
like the colored velvet collars on astra-
khan?' These are some of the remarks one
warmed themselves near the open fire My
advice to you American skaters Is that
however inexpensive the short gown may
be, do have an ermine scarf to wrap twice
around your throat and cover your ears
They are quite the stunnfngest things to
wear and are just as good for ordinary
street service.
Red is a Favorite.
Red was a favorite color with the
skaters Dresses of this color heavily trim
med with black passementerie when worn
with an astrakhan coat and the popular
shah toQue very effective Less con-
spicuous but more dainty, was a chasseur
blue cloth decorated with astrakhan. With
a military braided coat 1t was very striking
and pretty. Another costume of olive
green velvet was fashioned with a shapely
plated skirt. while the basqued coat was
embellished by a deep shoulder cape and
broad cuffs of ermine. A white felt hat
with crown of violets completed one
OF the most effective costumes worn on the
No.

We're there.
This exhibition has caused much talk
among the fair autoists as to the perfect
costume to be worn on the road. One very
swell woman who drives her own car
thinks a three-auarter coat of fur or, if
snort run is i'll prospect, freZe coat
lined with chamois leather, quite the proper
caper in the way of a wrap. a short.
woolly skirt of zibeline or the warynest of
tWeeds with satin line knickers, is the
ideal skirt. Snow boots or fur-lined shoes
to pull up over ones own are the very
best things to put upon the feet. as they
are easily pulled off, and if one takes lunch
at any place smart and neat appearance
is preserved. Always remember that two
pairs OF gloves, one of which should be
soft and thin, preferably of silk with fur
ones on top. are absolutely necessary. 1t
Is essential to have high fur collar so
arranged that it keeps in position for
