BUGHoUsE IS CROWDED
Territorial Asylum Has 303 Inmates
 No More Room

Dr. Ray Ferguson, superintendent of the territorial asylum for the insane, arrived in Tucson this morning on pri. vate business, and will probably leave for the Capital City this evening, says a Tucson exchange.
 Dr. Ferguson this morning stated that at present there were 303 inmates in the asylum and that the institution is in a rather crowded condition, but that he expects to see this remedied in a short time.
 The last territorial legislature appro- priated $50,000 for the erection of new buildings for the asylum, half to be used this year and the other half next year. According to Dr. Ferguson, the $25, ,000 which will be expended this year will go for fine large building to be used as home for the old and infrm in- mates of the asylum, and next year $ appropriation will be used for new buildings to be used as wards for the regular inmates.
 The asylum has l60 acres of land, upon which is grown nearly enough vegetables and farm products to supply the demands of the institution. The asylum grounds is one of the show places of Phoenix, and every visitor to that city is driven through them.
 The year of 1907 shows decrease in the death rate at the asylum of over 50 per cent over any other year.

NEW JoINTURE DREAM
Planned to Join Arizona and Nevada
 Is Latest Dope

After finding that Arizona and New Mexico would not consent to being hooked up as one state, some wild-eyed Washington correspondent who is seem ingly intent upon everlasting destruc tion of the autonomy of Arizona has been looking around for another avail able piece of country to tack this terri tory onto, and has finally selected Ne vada. A news dispatch is going tho rounds to the effect that an effort to combine the two eommonwealths will be made at the next session of con gress.
 The proposition advanced is abou; the funniest thing yet sprung upon tho people of Arizona. At just one point the northwest boundary of Arizona, does this territory touch Nevada and per son cannot cross from Arizona to that state without falling off either into Utah or California.
 Nevada is a very sparsely settled state, and about the only thing in favol of joining it to this territory would b' that the center of population there il so far away from Arizona that the peo pie here might never discover that they had been the victims of the everlasting iointers.
 The only thing in common between Nevada and Arizona is that they ar' both subdivisions of the United States and there the similarity ends.
 It is not known just who the fathe of the move is, although it is under stood that the powers higher up il Washington have been discussing it fol some time past.
 Better hook Arizona onto Alaska, SC that we can have a nice summer resor within our boundaries.--Ex

SHOOTING AFFRAY
 AT SILVER CITY
Horse Dealer and Bartender Indulge in Fast Gun Play in Which Both Are Wounded-Neither Seriously Hurt Both Are Held to Grand Jury.
The Silver City Enterprise says:

@AN wy N'fN' fa'SN
 About l;3O Thursday morning, with leaden skies overhead hiding the merry little stars, the sharp, vicious bark of six-shooters startled all-nighters on Broadway. The sound came from the Lobby saloon and crowd soon gath cred there to learn that Phil Estes, n horse dealer, and Jesse Fitzgerald, bar tender at the Bell saloon, had been en- gagged in lively shooting bout in which both were wounded, but not seriously.
 Just what provoked the difficulty is not known, as both men were reticent as to its cause. It is said they first had a clash and seuffie on the sidewalk, and some time after the trouble was re- newed in the Lobby saloon and guns were very much in evidence and sev- eral shots were exchanged as the ire duenters of the saloon cheerfully lit out for a place where bullets would be scarce. They were not particular as to the order of going, but they faded away

HONEYMOON IN ARABIA.

For seven days after the wedding
the Arab bride and bridegroom are
supposed not to leave their room.
The bride may see none of her own
family and only the women folk of
her husbands, who wait on her.
She remains in all her wedding
fnery and paint and does absolutely
nothing. The bridegroom generally
slips out at night after three days
and sees a few friends privately, but
he persistently hides from his wife's
family, and should he by accident
meet his father-in-law before the
seven days are over he turns his back
and draws his burnous, or haik, over
his face.
This is their view of a honey
moon, and they grow as weary of it
as any European couple do of their
enforced continental tour.-Wide

CITY'S "OLDEST Boy"

"The oldest boy in Philadelphia"
is the title given to Edwin J. Hous-
ton, scientist, inventor, and teacher.
He is known in every boys club,
church and school in Philadelphia,
and has been the handspring of the
Y. M. G. A. in that city for 25
years. He writes thrilling tales to
make boys love scientific things and
he believes in being respectfully
yellow" as he expresses it. His most
conspicuous work is in the field OF
electricity, in which he has a name
as an inventor, and he has written
80 books on scientific subjects. One
book of his, a physical geography,
has had sale of 10000 copies a
year for 35 years. Nearly every
Sunday he gives talk for boys at
some large institution. He lives
with a sister in large home, where
he entertains whole clubs of boys.

SUCCEED In FISH CULTURE
Station in Ohio Has Done Well in
Raising Black Bass-Have Can
nibaI Instincts.

Many of the states have estab-
lished fish-culture stations, but few
have been more successful than
Ohio, which at London has large
hatchery from which the state is
distributing over $4,000 fry Of the
small and large mouth black bass
and the marbled and Mississippi
catfish. The fish are reared in 10
ponds comprising six acres of water,
and all the ponds are spring fed.
Much has been learned here as to the
habits of the bass, and it is said
that some of the older fish here are
80 tame that they come up at regu-
lar times to be fed. The young bass
has numerous natural enemies
against which the fish-culturists try
to guard them. AS the young begin
to move from the bed and rise to the
surface there is four-legged bug
that gets after them; he has been
known to tackle six fry at the same
time. Birds and water snakes also
watch out for the rise of the little
fellows and gobble them up. But
the most serious enemy of the fry
is their father. As soon as the young
begin to rise the female agoes away
and the male bass, deserted, soon
gets hungry and develops the in
stincts of a cannibal, and if left
alone he devours his own youngsters
right and left.

LITTLE ACT OF PREPARATION
Surprising as 1t May Seem, Sneak
Thief Must Have Had Some
Conscience Left.

Judging from the recent expert
ence of a humble New York re-
porter, it would appear as if there Is
a certain amount of chivalry even
among those despised specimens Of
humanity commonly known as sneak
thieves. 1t was on a frosty night
that the newspaper man, becoming
suddenly possessed of an economical
streak, entered one of those restau-
rants-the tiled floor and mirrored
wall brand-so numerous in that big
city. He wore a long overcoat, which,
by the way, was in excellent condi-
ton. There was little of conse-
quence in the pockets of the gar
ment save an important letter,
stamped and addressed, all ready to
mail. The coat was carefully hung
up by its owner and a little later
as carefully removed by its new own
er. The latter neglected to leave
anything in exchange, but, being
possessed of either a grim sense of
humor or else oyertaken by twinge
of remorse, he most CONSIDERABLY
mailed the letter, which reached its
destination IN good order the follow
