Pink as the morning that brought her
 to soar And alight in our midst from Arcadia's shore. When five hundred is over and prizes
 admired, Or postmortems should bore us when
 bridge has expired, Then should some one suggest that
 your fortune be read, Shun their advice friend, heed mine
 instead. If you glance at her lips you are sure
 in her power, So sweet is her voice, crushed confec-
 tions seem sour, And the tilt of her head as she asks
 for your hand No celibate blind, from her smiles
 could withstand; The altar of roses, the essence of
 Myrrhs Ne'er pleased like the thrill when your
 hand touches her. My friend! do be careful! Alas.-bid
 adieu- For while taking your hand she took
 your heart too. The plight of the moth as it flies to the
 flame Is much like yours so quickly you
 came; She reads, but you hear not, your head,
 too, has flown And all that you know is, your souls
 not Vour own.

ATENNIs TOURNAMENT.
Tempe Merchants Contributing Liber'
 ally For Prizes.

The Normal tennis tournament, mention of which was made some time ago, now gives promise of being a re- ality. Heretofore it has been only a subject that has been receiving the attention of a few, and it was not cer- tain that the proposed tournament could be arranged for. It depended great deal upon the way the mer- chants of this place looked upon the matter. for it was expected that they would offer prizes and none of them nad been preached on the question.
 Night before last, however, q com m'ttec representing the Tennis asSo- citation made the rounds of the mer- chants here and were able to see and eNTlain the proposition to most of them. They met with flattering sue cess and have every reason to be proud of the start they have made. It was suggested that the prizes to be offer ed be something in the form of tennis paraphernalia, as that would be most appropriate. Mrs. Hodnett headed the list with a S10 tennis rack ct. Various other merchants signified their willingness to award something but as yet have not decided just what It should be.
 Ibe time of the tournament has not been fully decided upon, but it will probably occur just previous to the Ch s mas holidays, as that will give

LECTURE AND STEREOPTICON
 VIEWS

There was a fairly large crowd who attended the illustrated lecture by Dr. Cook Monday night in the Mesa opera house on physical research. Miss Ma bel Pomeroy rendered a few selections on the piano before the lecture com menced. The doctor in his lecture pre- ceding the showing of the pictures went very carefully into detail with his subject and proved conclusively from the statements of scientific men of repute that the evidence of the eX- istence of the spirit after death was too great to be disputed. He had his audience convinced long before he had concluded his remarks, and many of them were anxious to see the pictures from the spirit land. Cold snivers coursed over the audience, or at least part of it, as the pictures were pre- sented and explained as pictures of the spirit essence. About thirty pie lures in all were presented. The eve ming was taken up until II o'clock be- fore the lecture closed. A number re- mained to converse with Dr. Cook af- ter the crowd had edged it's way out.

CRIMINAL DOCKET
 GROWING SHORTER
Juries Making Short Work of Forg-
 CTS and Robbers.

There was another looping off from the criminal docket yesterday. The most important matter before the court was the case of William Ellwander, who had been indicted for forgery Ellwander was arrested more than a month ago for the theft of Grant Bros Construction company pay check for $75 from George Thorton, a black smith in the employ of the company. It was in fact charged that Ellwander stole two such checks from Thorton. One of them he cashed at the store of Etter Brcs at Wickenburg and 1t was sent to the Phoenix National Bank. one of the Repositories of the construc- tion company. The fact of the theft was soon made known and then the forgery of Thorton's name as endorser was discovered.
 At his preliminary examination Ell wander told a lame story which consti- tuted his defense. He said that he and Thorton had been together and that Thorton told him about the pay checks He wanted to come to Phoenix to the circus and wantoS company. He told Elfwander that if he would come with him he would divide the pay cheeks with him.
 On the strength of that offer Ell. wander stole both checks, cashed ont of them and left the other at a saloor in Wickenburg for Thorton. He admit ted the signing of Thortons name tC one of the checks but he said that ht believed that Thorton's offer to hin gave him the right to take that liberty with his name. The fact that Thortor

BACA FLOAT INVESTIGATION
Discloses Great Many Cases of Long,
 evity.

Judge J. M. Jamison returned to the city on Sunday morning from Nogales where he has been for the past week on business before the special com- missioner, F. s. Ingalls,, who is taking testimony regarding the mineral and timber locations on the Baca float. Judge Jamison said it is surprising, the large number of old people there are still alive who were familiar with the district as far back as 1850 and some of them from that date to the present day. Such a man as the one last re- ferred to is Tom Gardner, at present a resident of Patagonia He is now over 80 years of age but is stili quite active. A second old timer who will be called before the commissioner is Capt Way, at present a resident of Cincinnati. He mined on the float in 1858 and went from that district into the east to fight in the civil war. Gus Mccoy. who makes San Bernardino his home, is another old timer who will testify
 The hearings of the commissioner are held in the MonteZuma hotel in Nogales and will probably continue un- til the close of this week. At that time the commissioner will make a drive over the property under question and take testimony of ranchers and others who are unable to attend the hearings. One such witness is an old lady in her 90th year, who was too feeble to travel to Nogales.
 With the testimony given before the commissioner thus far the owners of mineral property located on the float are we'll pleased. Several witnesses 1 testified that in 1857, which antedated the Baca float some six years, the San | ta Rita mountain country was known | far. and wide as the richest mining re- ! zion in Arizona and there were num- | Der of properties working.
