ELrS LATEST PIPEFUL
He Gets Funny but the Joke Is on
 Himself.

Eli Perkins made a great blunder. He evidently mistakes Capt. F. NJ. Lamson. chairman of the lecture com mittee of the First M. E. church for Rev. A. M. Gibbons, pastor of the First NJ. F. church. Below is given the letter exactly as MT. Perkins wrote it:
 On the Train in Oregon, March IS, 1904. Rev. P. M. Lamson,
 Lecture Committee.
 Dear Brother:-The New York Lee ture bureau wires me on the train to- day that I.must go to Phoenix, Ariz., Thursday, April :, and stand up with you somewhere in the town or in the hot sun in the suburbs and deliver the absolute truth for two solid hours.
 The bureau says that the demand for truth by the moral people of Phoe- nix is beyond the supply which you clergymen can furnish.
 Very well, Brother Lamson, I will be with you and your people without fail. I am always present-when lee ture.
 I will arrive on the 1O:3O a. m. train from Ash Fork. If all Santa Fe trains break down I will walk over from Ash Fork and let my truth and vera city follow on the freight.
 My subject, Brother Lamson, will be "The Philosophy of Wit and Humor" and "Stories Parables) Around the Stove"
 My talk will be along scholastic lines, orthodox and pure as a beautiful gold en-haired Phoenix maiden's dream-at the same time, I will let out as much fun and cause as much laughter as I can without making your solemn dea- cons and your serious choir leader go into fits.
 In the meantime, until come broth CT, may the Delphic Oracle watch over you and protect you-from your only friend, FELL PERKINS"
 CMelville D. Landon).
 P. S.-Please engage a cool room with ice between the sheets, have my mail ready and meet me at the sta- tion with the young ladies in the choir in the red and gold automobile pre- sented you by the generous deacons of your church-and for heavens sake don't show this note to your wicked, worldly editors. ELL"

 l was going to suggest if you are one of those 32 to 1 clergymen that you will let one of your honest 16 io deacons count out my fee to me but such a suggestion would look worldly in a purely classical letter and I will not write it. "ELIAR."

clergyman finished his blessing Eli had a religious story ready"
 Did Mrs. Perkins laugh, too?'
 "Well. yes, she did laugh at mystor- ies. But can't cOnscientiously say that she laughed at Ellis. She tried hard to laugh a. them, but it was an arti- ficial laugh. Poor woman, she had laughed at Ellis jokes for thirty years and she was worn out. So, like a good wife she did everything she could to encourage and cheer mp her husband, ' continued Bill sadly, but she was completely exhausted
 What did the good wife do?" asked the reporter.
 "Why, she had the servants arrange q tall bouquet of hollyhocks in the cen ter of the table. so when Eli was tell ing his stories he couldn't see the tears trickMng down his wife's' cheeks. O, she was a good wife to Eli,'' sighed Bill, with moistened eyes. "I wish all our youmerists were blessed with a wife like heri"-New York Herald.

FLOTO SHOW COMING.
Monstrous Circus Will Exhibit in
 Phoenix April z.

The Republican is authorized to announce the coming of the Great Floto Shows known from coast to coast as the Circus Beautiful. This wonderful tented aggregation will exhibit in Phoenix April ', and eXcep- tionally low rates will be made on all railroads. The Floto Shows are big ger and better than ever this year and it is expected that thousands of residents of this community will at tend. The Circus Beautiful has many attractive features. In fact, too many to individually enumerate here. The crowning attraction is Alexius the Dare Devil Dane, who daily flirts with death by looping the loop on an ordin- ary wagon wheel. Many men have lOoped the loop in the old way, but none have attempted to duplicate the act of Alexius.
 Other features include the St. Leon family of acrobats, imported direct from France by the Floto shows. La Belle Leona, the only woman bare back rider in the world who turns a somersault while dashing at full speed around the ring; John Carrolls thrill ing 72-horse act: Herr Litzer's funny Dutch Elephants; Mile. Airline, the Girl in Red, Professor D.. G. Markle's wonderful dog, pony and monkey cir GUS; the Ben Hur herd of spotted Arabian Stallions. known in Arabia as the steeds of Black Eagle Feather, in remarkable exhibitions of equine in- telligence-a real horse ballet; the Priskorn Brothers in an extraordinary bicycle act; the famous Sugimot's Troupe of Japanese; the Elicit Troupe of Gymnasts in the Aerial feats, and Mile.

WAR AMONG THE WICKED
Cutting Affray in Which There Was
 More BluSter Than Blood

The cutting affray briefly mentioned in yesterday mornings paper proved to be real war drama and the victim was not George York, as supposed, though the incident occurred near his place of business, the Columbus sa- loon It was in the apartments of Je- sus Baldenegro, a woman more or less notorious but principally more. The result of the outbreak was that Jesus Miranda was sent to Jail yesterday by Justice Robertson for sixty days, Lu- cas Jzonzoles was fined S10 and paid it, Francisca Cavanillas was discharged and John Doe. Mexican, has not yet been apprehended.
 Jesus Miranda has for a long time been enamoreG of Jesus Baldenegro. In fact, an attempt was once made to convict them under the Edmunds act of maintaining an irregular family fireside. but the prosecution failed. Monday evening he went to the home of the Baldenegro woman and lay down upon the bed to rest and give his jag Q chance to catch up with him. Fran cisca Cavanillas, a neighbor woman, who was also eXuberant from strong drink, entered the house and Miranda engaged in a scufile with her that was supposed to be friendly. though rough and indelicate. The Baldenegro woman protested against such rough and ill hammered treatment of her guest and Miranda then assumed the prerogative of a lover and began beating her. Lu- cas Gonzales, F. Moline and John Doe, who had entered meanwhile, interfered and Miranda assaulted them. Lucas returned the compliment. bringing into play large pocket knife that should have done effective work, but which only succeeded in cutting Miranda's clothing disastrously in three or four places.
 Miranda retreated some distance and armed himself with couple of case knives that were exhibited yesterday in court in a badly bent condition, though the only damage inflicted by them was on Lucas. who had thumb badly cut Eventually Lucas was knocked cold and it was at first be- lieved that he was killed.
 John Doe by this time had reached the sidewalk and Miranda hurled rock after hinn that is supposed to have taken effect on the back of his head or neck. but it never stopped him and he is still missing Miranda then laid low till he was arrested and yesterday all the combatants were in court eX- cept the missing man.

One of the scenes is the bottom of a coal shaft, with coal ears and elevator in actual use, and eliminating in the destruction of the mine by fire damp.

KISS ME TOO.

"Tact," said Eli Perkins in his lee ture, Ifs to say the right thing at the right time. It gets us out of many em- barrassing situations.
 ''The other night my dignified niece was entertaining an old beau in a se- cluded alcove in the parlOr. For pro priety's sake she held her little niece in her lap.
 During a lull in the conversation we were electrified by this exclamation by the child
 Kiss me. too. Aunt Alicei'
 "It was a sudden shock to us all. and each smiled suspiciousIy at the other. but were greatly relieved at Aunt AL ices calm reply;
 "'Don't say, kiss me too. dear: you should say. kiss me twice." CGreat- Laughter)

BILL ME ON INFESTED HoUsEe

Speaking of infested house5," said Bill Wye after he had spent a week on Eli Perkins farm, Eli lives in one. ''
 What is it infested with?" asked a Herald reporter. Has Eli got grave yard ghosts in his cellar, hoot owls in his garret and snakes and lizards in his well?"
 Worse than that" said Bill, sadly
 ''Well, how worse?"
 "Why. his whole house and his guests are infected with anecdotes and stor- ies and jokes. Eli was on his lOOth joke. Everything brought out joke. When lady got @ wshbcne a chicken story followed, and as soon as the
