THE UNIVERSITY EXPLOSION.
The Identy of the Guilty Parties not
 Vet Learned.

The mystery of the explosion of the University cannon in the vicinity Of the girls dormitory is unsOlved, says the Tucson Citizen.
 Perhaps a Sherlock Holmes may be imported to work on the slender clues. At all events notwithstanding the fact that keen detective ability has been shown by members of the University faculty. the embryo artillerymen are as yet unknown.
 one sleuth suggestion which has been tried and from which as yet no results have been received was a mar vel It was nothing less than the mea suring of the footsteps about the place where the cannon was exploded and a later measurement of the shoes of all the students who live in the dormito ries
 IL is also reported that some ciga- rette ashes was found on one of the cannon wheels which survived the ex- plosiOT have been saved and may fig ure later. But this is merely conjec- ture.
 With the cannon candidate for the scrap heap and the broken windows replaced with new ones. there still re- mains one thing that Is absolutely cer- tain. And that-is the United States Government will not rush another can con here for the military equipment of the university.

The Associated Charities began the seasons work, November 1st, under the auspices of the Ministers Confer ence. This opened the second year Of the Charities actual existence. The success of the past winters efforts encourage the organization to continue on the lines of he original plan, which has the endorsement of the Board of Trade, the city council and the mem bers of the board of supervisors.
 The object of the Associated Chari- ties, primarily, to systematize the charity of the city. in order that it may be administered as justly and as economically as possible. There is much waste where giving is not cen tralized. In one case, an individual regularly received aid from five diff ferent organizations. At the same time an equally worthy, but less aggressive person was dependent wholly on two or three neighbors almost as needy as he.
 The object. further. is to relieve the taxpayers of the city and county as far as may be, from the burden of supporting indigent health seekers. Fully eighty per cent of local benefi- cence is bestowed upon utter strang- CTS. As the reputation of Phoenix as health resort increases, this burden will increase. Each case referred to the charities is carefully investigated and a record is kept.
 Professional mendicants are prompt ly turned over to the police. When i'll physician is consulted. If the appli- cant is helpless the appeal is made to his relatives, to the church or lodge with which he has been connected. or to the city or county authorities of his former place of residence. Several such letters have brought a check by return mail. But if no help is forth coming. the best course usually is to return the applicant to his home town.
 The association earnestly urges CO., operation. first. in making known to it every case of need within knowl- edge, and secondly, by making charity donations through it so far as is thought best.
 It will at any time give a full report of its work to subscribers. Also. it will furnish a list of cases to churches and lodges when so desired.

An English judge, Lord Eldon, we think. once rebuked a dilatory lawyer by telling him that he was "the last hair on the end of the tail of prOcras- tination." He would have regarded the Arizona lawyers who were supposed to have business in the supreme. court meeting which ended yesterday as a bunch of hairs. Of all the cases to be heard only one was in readiness.

E~CONONIIzING ON LIGHT.

The man in charge of the electric
light meters was around taking ac-
count of them one evening this week
and was somewhat surprised at find
ing SO little of the lights burned in
one of the stores. He thought there
must be something wrong with the
meter, but learned that the parties
weren't going to give them a chance
to make a small fortune off of them.
They stated that they could seen now
how much light they were burning
and guided them accordingly. The
man insisted on blaming the meter
and taking it out and a man was sent
for that purpose, but when he learn
ed that it was not the fault or the
etc but hat the partise were only
economizing and burning less light
purposely, he said it was useless
taking the meter out and he left 1T
there. So after all the placing of
the meters in the stores has probably
not. added materially to the money
formerly received from the lights, for
besides making some more careful,
many have had them taken out.
