would have been necessary.
 But the United States side of this story Is entirely different. Captain Alexander says that the woman is the keeper of a hotel in Moctezuma, that she is not. rich enough to sport $1S00 worth of diamonds, that there are many strong circumstances indicating that she was in the business of snug gling and that she left the diamonds and fled to Mexico to escape arrest and prosecution for smuggling.
 This being the case there is little prospect for her to get back the dia- monds by an appeal to the Supreme Court And even if these facts are incorrect she violated the customs law and there Is no hope for her to re- cover the property

Brockman Smashes WindowS| in Padded Cell of County JaiI-EpeS Randolph Visits County Seat.

TOMBSTONE, Aug. S.-The in- sane patient, Brockman, who was brought over from Wilcox a few days ago, and held here pending his examination for insanity, is causing the jail officials considerable trouble. He was placed in the padded cell, and In some manner managed to climb up to the window and succeeded in break. ing out all the window lights, and had started pulling out the wooden frames. when he was stopped by the guards, and a straight jacket placed on him. He refuses to put on any clothes what ever, and whenever any are put on him he tears them into shreds. The last day or so he has qjuieted down somewhat, and is not as bad as when he was first placed in jail
 Probate Judge Goodbody came over from Bisbee this morning being called on account of the illness of his son, The youngster in company with several other children, in playing, climbed on top of the house being built by John Block, on the lot adjoining the Goodbody residence, last evening and accidentally fell off, striking on his back and shoulders. The fall ren- dered him unconscious, and was in this condition for some little time. Dr. Hugghart was called, and upon exami- nation found that the child had broken no bones and had escaped with but a few slight scratches. That the child was not seriously injured in the fall is marvellous, as he fell some twelve to fifteen feet onto a hard lime forma- tion.
 Prominent Visitors.

brought down his wooden blade with all
his might across the hairy neck. The
sword was splintered into a hundred

his neck, saying: "a fly must have lit

over and speaking in Brave Jacks face:

AS the old wizard said this he took
hold of Brave Jack with one hand and
Rosebud with the other and half dragged
them up the mountain path steep and
rugged. The poor little ones begged and
wept, but the wizard only cackled the
more. "Ha. Ha! my pretty ones" he
CRIED "Ill turn one of you into a witch
and the other into n dragon"
They reached a dark, damp place on the
mountainside. and from the draft of cold
air that struck them Brave Jack and
Rosebud knew that they must be near to
the cave. And so 1t proved to be. Yawn-

corner in the path was a dark hole in
the earth. Beside this hole the wizard
sat the now almost fainting children
down upon n stone, tying their hands
and feet securely to a fallen tree that
stretched behind them. "Now, be patient
till l return on my lioness," said the
wizard. Don't be afraid, for my dragon

To Freckles this plain little four-legger

great agony of heart and for months she
fought with all her strength against the
marriage, which she thought could bring
her only unhappiness. Never till after
she had been married to James by proxy
did Mary Beatrice behold him.
The path of the ill-fated James was

In 1856. But his reign was short ana

cutting the kindling-wood.
So it was that Snip was the only one in
the world who did not question Freckles
about his goings and comings and con-
duct in general. Snip fully understood
Freckes. and knew that the little lad
had some object in doing whatever he
did. OF course, the object may not have
been just what ii should have been, but
that was not Ships business.
And thus it was that Freckles loved
Snip tenderly and was beloved by Snip
in return. Long hours they spent to-
gether. Freckles doing all the planning
and talking, and Snip doing the following
and listening. Snip was a goodman

10 anything that Freckles said; but that
was because he felt perfect confidence in
his masters wisdom and good Judgment.

When n little child her father, Prince OF
Modena, died, leaving her and her young
brother in the care of their mother, Laura
Martinozzi a Roman lady of noble family.
AS child Mary Beatrice was most
carefully reared-too carefully In some
respects, for she was subjected to the
strictest discipline, her mother refusing
her such little table delicacies as cakes
and sweetmeats. through fear that the
child might become gluttonous. In after
years Mary Beatrice, in speaking of her
own childhood, said that she did not ap-
prove Of keeping children on such formal
footing with their parents. In regard to
her own little ones, she liked not to
hold them at such awful distance from
her as she had been held by her own
mother, for she wished her daughter to
regard her as a friend and companion
one to whom she could contide every
thought of her heart"

| In n strange country far over the seas

| Jack and Rosebud Brave Jack was nine
| years of age and his sister was two years

One day when the spring was far ad-
vanced and the flowers bloomed on river
bank, valley and mountainside. Brave
Jack said to Rosebud as they played in
the garden of their home: Come, sister
dear, let's go for walk in the great
woods yonder. There is the home of the
wood nymphs and sun fairies. We may
get a glimpse Of them if we go while the
sunbeams shine through the trees
But We must not leave this garden till
our mother returns from the fishmonger's 8
shop" said Rosebud. "Shoud she come
home and find us gone it would make her
very uneasy. She would think we had
been stolen by the gypsies and carried far
away. Then she would have the watch
man ring the bells and the town-folk
would turn out to help in the search for
us.
But I have a way in mind that will
prevent our mothers worrying about u.s."
said Brave Jack. "Well tell Granny
Wrinkles, who is coming to make our Sun
day cake this morning. She will explain

Then the bells will not be rung. nor will
there be any alarm. for our mother. as

inst as Rosebud entered the cottage TO
get her bonnet, Brave Jacks hat and
wooden sword. old Granny Wrinkles came
in ut the front door, having engaged to
bake n Sunday cake for the mother of
Brave Jack and Rosebud. Upon seeing her
Rosebud cried out: "Ch, old Granny. my
brother wishes to speak with you. He is
in the garden beneath the fig tree"
Old Granny Wrinkles, smiling ndul-
gently, went TO the garden. where Brave
Jack was waiting the return Of his sister.

old crone, will you oblige me by telling
my mother on her return from the fish
mongers that | have taken my sister
for n walk in the woods that cover the

Granny Wrinkles, shaking her head. You
