 RAIN NEEDED.-If for no other reason, fine rain is needed now to test the new cement ditch on Center street. It has not only been com pleted but a portion of the adjarent street has been nicely graveled with the material left over. Center street residents are now becoming qui te chesty and they have good reason.
 RETURN OF THE FAITHFUL The Knights of Khorassan who went to Bisbee Sunday night to burn incense and what money they had with them, are home again, having sneakel in early this morning on G special train from Maricopa. They say they did eth er things in Bisbee also, among which was mentioned the massacre of a job lot of tyros and the dedication of a new hall to the purposes of their mys- tic fellowship. Marshal Kinney was among the returning heroes. Asked it he came back to stop Eli Perkins from featuring in the First Methodist church tonight, he replied ehat on the contrary he came back purposely to hear him. The rest of the knights, however, "fessed up" that whiie they would probably go to hear MT. Pe.kn ms in the evening, the circus vas rot to be over looked and they came on a specal to get a little sleep before the afternoon performance.
 ELPS ARRIVAL.-Eli Perkins may be safely announced as having lar rove" He said in a recent communi- cation that he would be here on the 10; 30 train from Ash Fork and from that it is presumed that he will come on Q. special at 10:30 this morning. as there is no regular 10:30 train. How ever it is immaterial whether he is here yet or not. He will be here to- night to lecture in the First Methodist church. even if he comes on a hand car, for he is reputed to have a fad for keeping dates. ii there's money in them, and his next date is Phoenix. tonight. He will lecture on the sub feet of wit and humOr, if not restrained by the police, and it is hardly expected that he will be for the chief is out of town. And whether he is here yet CT not, no one who has the price need hesitate about going to the church tonight. for Eli certainly will have 'arrove" before he begins talking.

THROUGH THE NEW UMBRELLA
Pretty Maid Peeps Rougishly Through
 C.s transparent Shade.

Crowded streets oa rainy days will no longer be a terror to the unfortun- ate pedestrian. for with the advent of the new transparent umbrella many things will be changed.
 With the coming of this atest inven- ton things hitherto hidden are re- vealed and Master Curid has to change his methods of doing business on rainy days
 How many a romance of the past has been founded upon some episode in which the umbrella played an im- portant part. The hero and the hero inc suddenly clash on the wind-swept, rain -drenched street a lcok-and a love story is begun.
 A the beach what conf fences are exchanged under the shelter of the friendly umbrella
 There is. moreover. connected with this UniGne article a charm which should compensate for all its literary drawbacks. The fair face of the maid who carries the umbrella of filmy fine ness gains added charms from it's sup tie suggestion of half hidden beauty.
 There is no doubt that the girl be- hind the umbrella will be such a fas- cin2tinS vision that the sterner sex will spend most of their time signing for wet weather.

MAGNIFICENT MENAGERIE WITH
 THE GREAT FLOTO SHOWS.

One of the pleasantest and most profitable hours that can he spent any where may be found in the enormous menagerie department of these vast shows. There is not d great deal of opportunity offered elsewhere for a practical study of animal life. The re- lations of the wild animals of the world to mankind are bat little understood. The maryelS of creation are nowhere greater than in the strange and diversi- fled forms of animate existence, as eXemplified in wild and untamed and untamable beasts. Scarcely any idea of the great cardinal principle of pro- gress in animal life evolution may oe had without a knowledge Of wild sni- mals. The wise men of the world know this fact, and in order to make such knowledge available, as well as 10 en- tertain and amuse, have established in the larger cities of the world zoological garcens But they arc enormously ex- pensive institutions and only the wealthiest communities can afford them.
 It is because these great shows make one of the many features of their ex- hibitions q menagerie that is complete in every particular that they are of in .
 
 every community they visit. Years of study of zoology in books is not so ef- fective as an hour spent in this me - nagerie. And when during this hour one may be amused by the antics of the monkeys, marvel at the strange creatures of odd shape and savage dis position. and at the same time be en- tertained by the music of a magnifi- cent military band, an hour of diver sion and study is supplied that can be had nowhere else.
 It is for this reason that the doors of the shows are opened an hour be- fore the beginning of the areric per- tormance. 1t is really duty to get to the shows e1rly enough to allow the children ample time to see all the anil mals. and an hou" is none too long for hasty Inspection of them all.
 Shows will exhibit in Phoenix today, April 7th.

 Mrs. Ross Smith, of Bisbee, a sis ter of MT. Buckley. arrived the day before and was present at the funeral.
 Jack was a good soldier, true to his country and to his friends.

He replied that he would not reed 1t; that it could be used to bury him and his only request was that the pictures of his two children be buried with him
