Fish is sign of good omen. In
Bengal, when the bride comes with the
bridegroom for the first time in the

catch hold of fish in a certain well

of a generation as fruitful as that of
fish. While entering a new house for
the first time the lady is to take hold
of fish, probably for the same rea-

There are three critical stages in a
woman's life which leave their mark
in her career. The first of these stages
is womanhood, or the change from a
care free girl to budding womanhood,
The second is motherhood, and the
third is Change of Life.
Perils surround each of these stages,
and most of the misery that comes
to women through i'll health dates
from one or another of these i'm

.ENCAMPMFNT OVER
THE TROOPS RETURN
Review of the National Guard at Camp
Brodie, ons Friday by Governor kib-
hey.

The annual encampment of the ma
tional guard Of Arizona came to an end
yesterday morning. Most of the SOL
diers are home by this time and the
rest of them are well on their way. The
southern companies all reached Phoe-
nix yesterday afternoon on the regular
Daylight Express the Tempe and Mesa
companies continuing to their homes
on the Sis train and the Yuma and
Morenci companies leaving on the 7:30
train. During their brief stay here last
evening. Col. McClintock entertained
at dinner. the officers of the southern
companies.
The encampment has been a decided
success. II was no picnic, nor was it
designed to be. As was intended. the
men were given a real taste Of soldier
life. the bitter as well as the sweet. and
some good training in all manner Of
field work as well as in target shoot
ing. the range practice being special
feature OF this encampment. Adjutant
General Leayell was present in camp
a portion OF the time and rendered val
liable assistance in the schooling of
the troops. Friday was the special
ceremonial day of the encampment. the
feature or the occasion of it being the
visit of Governor Kibbey.
The governor was met at the train
and brought to camp early in the
morning being rendered a proper re-
ception while the band played Hail
10 the Chief" The officers then lined
up in review after which there was an
exhibition of battle formations of va
rious kinds. including an assault by one
force of troops on an Imaginary breast
work. defended by well entrenched,
though much smaller body of men.
The next spectacular incident was
the striking of the heavy tentaSe, pre-
paraSDry for transportation home, and
the erection of the shelter tents which
We're TO be used during the remainder
Of the encampment. AT the sound OF
The bugle every one Of the heavy tents

in short order they had been rolled and
were ready for shipment and the little
shelter tents were erected in their
place.
In the afternoon came the review,
which was a ceremony of honor to the
governor II was followed by an in
spection of the regiment by Colonel
McClintock, commanding, and Captain
Armistead of Whipple barracks. At its
conclusion the captain spoke in the
most complimentary way of the per-
sonEel Of the regiment and of its equip
ment and training.
In the evening after mess. there was
regimental parade, which was an
almost faultless ceremonial and imme-
diately thereafter the governor left
for Prescott where he was to take the
train for home. Incidentally however,
he had been invited to stop at the Yav-
apai club and address a gathering Of

ment necessitated an early departure
from the encampment. Yesterday
morning the soldiers were routed out
at 4: so o'clock and by 6: 80 O'Clock they
had breakfasted. struck the shelter
tents and We're on the way to the rail-
road, transportation having been pro-
vided on the regular trains.
| Col. McClintock speaking last night
of the encampment, said the men for
the most part We're exceptionally well
behaved and there was little occasion
for disciplining any of them. He be-
lieves they have profited much by the
weeks practical work in the various
features of the soldiers duty. The
weather was good most of the time.
For the first week it rained every day.

MORE THAN BURGLARY
II WAS CONSPIRACY
To Systematically Rob the Emporium
of OeIcacies at the End of the In
dian School Car Line.

! The plot is unfolding. The conspir-
acy 10 impoverish the firm of Thomas
and Tannehill doing business at the
end Of the Indian school car line is be-
ing laid bare and the nefarious con-
spirators are on their way to the
scaffold.
A few days ago Frank Quail. a
young Indian boy. pupil of the school,
was caught in the act of breaking into
the. school about five o'clock in the
morning. He offered in extenuation
that he was hungry and could not wait
until breakfast. beside his appetite i'm
peratively demanded watermelon and
pie
There was a strong suspicion that
this was not the first crime against
the store: that there had been a long
series of them and that Quail had not
committed them single handed and
alone.
Since he has been in jail he has i'm
plicated Sam Russell. a still younger
Indian boy. The information he gave
out was somewhat disconnected and
unsatisfactory for the average Indian
is not a very fluent confessor. In the
meantime while Deputy Sheriff Wood
was applying the gimIet of investiga-
tion TO Quail the assistant discipline
trian Of the Indian school was engaged
in prying the lid off Sam Russelrs
crimes.
Between what was dragged out of
Quail and what was extricated with
difficulty from Russell a fair account
of their criminal operations has been
constructed. II turns out that it was
by accident that they came to engage
in the burglary business. They found
a key near the store where it had been
lost by one Of the proprietors. They
tried it one day when they We're not
observed and il worked.
After that they invaded the store al
most daily but they conducted their
operations with so great discretion
that no suspicion was aroused.
They found the key about two
months ago but they never took so
much at any one time that it was
missed. Now and then they would alb
stract a watermelon. a pie. a bottle of
soda pop. some chewing gum or candy.
Quail generally carried the key and
entered the store while Russell acted
as lookout. Finally they lost the key
and then had to resort to burglary i'm
its crudest and most rudimentary form
by breaking in.
The stories conflict as to the way in
which the key was lost. One of the
boys gave the impression that 1t was
merely mislaid but the other tells a
different story. The probably correct
one IS that Russell while in tempo
rary possession of the open sesame
ventured on an incursion alone and at
tackled the cash drawer which contain
ed fifty copper pennies. He took them
away but the money became a weight
in his pocket if not on his conscience
and he made the mistake the next day
Of going back to the store to trade the
pennies for more portable silver.
The theft of the pennies had been
discovered and when young Russell
appeared on this unwise errand he was
turned inside out by one of the pro-
prietors and the key was found. At
any rate he is now in Jail and the
case will be further investigated by
Justice tombstone on Monday.
