have again been exemplified in the
: case of Robert Leo Grennan, a book
keeper who lived at 537 Baker street
He died at st. Josephs hospital yes

THE coroner's office was notified and
permission was given to take the body

office of the Pacific States Telephone
and Telegraph company. He and his
younger brother, Joseph, 81 years OF
age, were sleeping in the folding bed
The family was awakened from sleep
by a crashing noise. Joseph's cries
for help made the other members OF
the family hurry to the room occupied
by him and Robert and they were
horror stricken when they saw that
the folding bed had closed up.
The bed was pulled down and JOS
eph was taken out. He had escaped
without any serious injury. Robert
was unconscious. His head had beer
forced down upon his chest, fractur'
ing his spine. DR.. ]. G. Morrissey

Glass Windowa.

Glass windows are known to have
existed at Pompeii as early as A. d.
70 In the third century the windows
Of royal houses throughout Europe
were glazed Windows of colored glass
were placed in many French and Ital-
ian churches in 6T4, and the use Of
glass became general in private houses
during the twelfth century. The panes,
however, were only three or four inches
square, and the material was so infe-
rior that, while a room was lighted. it
was often matter Of some difficulty to
discern objects on the outside through
the glass. For long time windows in
England were a subject of taxation.

sPEclALIsM IN LAW.
The Solicitor and the Barrister In
Our Legal PrRCtice.


In this country nearly every student
admitted to the bar is under the i'm
preston that there is in him the more
than possibility Of great trial lawyer.
Having read accounts OF brilliant cross
examinations and successful addresses
to juries, he has In mind that he is en-
tirely competent at the outset TO try
the most complicated and difficult
cause. Unfortunately as to many who
are not qualified for that work 1t is
only after very many years and after
considerable experience at the expense
OF litigants and the public, II at all,
that they ascertain that they have not
the peculiar aptitude necessary to the
successful trial lawyer. In the mean
time not only have clients suffered, but
the business Of the courts has been re-
tarded TO very serious extent by the
lack of adaptability on the part OF the
practitioner as we'll as by lack Of ex-
perience. since it is impossible that ev-
cry man admitted TO the bar shall have
the opportunity to try a sufficient num-
Der of causes TO give him the degree Of
experience requisite in order TO obtain
the best results.
Sooner or later in the interest of the
clients and to save the time and pa
tience of the courts there must be in
this country natural division be-
tween the labor Of the solicitor and the
duty Of the barrister, not artificial or
conventional, but one which shall grow
up from the nature of the case, by
which certain men who are best quail
fed for the trial of causes will carry
on that work to the practical exclusion
Of those without special adaptability
for that class of business. In this, as
In every other direction. the specialist
must find his place.-Green Bag.

MALIBRAN WAS A TEASE.
The Great Prima Donna Was Full o
Mischief and Caprice.

Mischief and Caprice.
No prima donna was ever more de
lightfully capricious, more full of mis-
chief, than the famous Nine Malibran.
At the rehearsals of Romeo and Ju-
let she could never make up her
mind where she was to die at night.
1t was important for Romeo to know,
but all he could get was not sure"
don't know" cant tell" or 1T will
be just as it happens, according to my
humor; sometimes in one place, some
times in another" On one occasion
she chose to die close to the foot
lights, her companion, of course, being
compelled to die" beside her, and
thus, when the curtain fell, couple Of
footmen had to carry the pair of, one
at time, to the intense amusement Of
the audience.
John Templeton, the fine old Scottish
tenor, was probably never so miser-
able as when he was cast to sing with
Malibran Very often she was dis
pleased with his performance, and one
evening she whispered to him, You
are not acting properly; make love to
me better to which, so 1t is said,
Templeton innocently replied, Don't
you know am a married MANI Evi-
dently the lady did not think there
was anything serious in the circum-
stance, for not long afterward, when
in "Somnambula" she was on her
knees to Templeton as Elvino, she sue
ceeded In making the tenor scream
with suppressed laughter when he
should have been singing by tickling
him vigorously under the arms.

The Shattuck-Arizona Mining con-

 to the Douglas shelter of the Copper Queen company just as soon as the
 aerial tramway plant can be con- structed from the mine to the rail- road tracks of the Fl Paso and South
 western system, a distance approxi- mately of 5000 feet. At present there is piled up on the Shattuck dump about three thousand tons of rich ore. This will be moved first as soon as the tramway is in operation, and after that the ore taken from the drifts in development work will be shipped. It is expected that the tramway will connect with the rail- road tracks in the vicinity of the Spray shaft of the Copper Queen company at the point where the wagon road now crosses leading to the Shattuck & Arizona mine.-Bis- bee Review.

 The Miners drilling contests for the championships of Arizona promise to be well filled. The usual rules will apply: S-pound hammers in the dou- ble contest and 4-pound in the single with seven-eight CD steel in both NIT. Thomas Devine, of Bisbee, will be in charge of the contests and he is thoroug hly familiar with the man. ner in which they should be con- ducted.
 Various exhibits are being received for the Fair, manJJ' having beer ship ped before the date the postpone ment was announced. The United Verde mine exhibit in charge of MT. H. R. Brown has been received and will no doubt be an attractive dis play. It will remain as a part of the permanent mineral exhibit. Several of the counties have also sent their exhibits.

LaSS0ed a Deer.

The cowboys at the Parks roundup have carried off the honors for sports menship this season. Last week one of the men jumped up big buck deer, while riding in search of cattle, and as the country was compara- lively level, gave chase. Other men who were riding near joined the chase which lasted for about a mile and half and ended with the buck being lassoed by one of the cowboys.
 The deer was exceptionally large and fat and had fine pair of antlers that showed him to be about six years old. It is fact, although not gener- ally known, that COW ponies can out run deer when the country is open and lrvel.-Bulletin.
