In Boston.

Attorney General Moody was once
riding on the platform of a Boston
street car, standing next to the gate
that protected passengers from cars
coming on the other track. A Boston
lady came to the door of the car
says the Popular Magazine, and as
it stopped started toward the gate,
which was hidden from her by the
men standing before it.
"Other side, please, lady" said
the conductor.
He was ignored as only born
and-bred Bostonian can ignore a
man. The lady took another step to-
ward the gate
You must get off the other side
said theconductor.
Il wish to get off on this side,
came the answer. in tones that con-
gealed that official into momentary
silence. Before he could explain or
eXpostulate Mr.. Moody came to his
assistance.
Stand to one side. gentlemen"
he remarked quietly. The lady wish
es to climb over the gate"

The extreme uneasiness now be-
ing manifested by Senator Bailey
over the inclination of former popu-
lists to return to their original par
ty fealty is rather strange dispo-
sition for one to show who is at
heart in favor of increased demo-
cratic strength, Democracy has al
ways kept her doors open that those
who, seeing the error of their former
ways might return, and the good old
custom is going to continue in full
force and effect. The democratic par
ty in Texas is not run entirely in the
interest of Senator Bailey, though
he and great many of his friends
are trying very hard to thus make
it appear.

LOST BUT FOUND.
Ernest Schade is Safe and SOund---LOSt
 in the Mountains Nine Days

After being lost in the ,snowcapped
 mountains for nine days and nights with but light clothing and nothing to eat except the game he killed, lit tie Ernest Schade has been found safe and sound, and none the worse off af- ter his tramping and hardship. This is the report brought in by. E U. Beau cham ?, who met the boy at Pie lsan ton, N. NJ on 'he upper part of the Frisco river Tue day morning, while he was on his way home.
 MT. Beau 'hamp said that Ernts told hiu that he left camp on the lii tie Blue on Sunday morning and after hunting on d high mountain killed deer some time in the early after noon. In his excitement he took al the meat he could carry and started in the direction of the sun, forgetting the time of day, and went in the Op- posite direction of the camp. Dark ness overlook him and he walked al that night and fired nearly all of his ammunition trying to attract the at tention of his companions. After wandering in the hills eight days he struck a COW camp and on Monday Ot this week struck Alma, where he was directed to the Frisco river and was on his way home when he met the Beauchamp party. Mir. Beauchamp left the boy with Dan Eylar and the packs at the Stockton ranch and they will be in Clifton Saturday. When Ernest was found he had ham of venison and four cartridges and is in excellent condition. Being without salt the meat which he cnoked made him sick, Lut his ruggedness pulled him through. The ERA will give the boys story next week.

Clifton Wins Again.

On last Monday night the Clifton basket ball five travelled to the hill city and met Morenci's team on their home floor for the first time and after hard fight won out in a whirlwind finish by the score of 26 to 30.
 The advantage was all with Mo- renci during the first half due to the slippery floor on which the game was played, and for the first fifteen min utes Clifton was unable to make any headway, having hard time to keep on their feet, during which time Mo renci kept piling up their score and for while Clifton seemed hopelessly out of the race.
 The first half ended with Morenci leading by points, but in the second half, Clifton outplayed Morenci and by aggressive playing succeeded in tying the score. For several minutes it was nip and tuck; Clifton would lead, then Morenci, until the last five minutes of play Clifton took the lead and kept it until the whistle sounded time.
 Fast clean playing was impossible on account of the smothnesS of the floor, but nevertheless the game was most exciting and interesting.
 Morenci is coming down tonight to win, but they will have to show Clifton. Indications point to good fast game and although Clifton eX- poets to win, they are not over con ident, and are prepared to fight it out every minute of the game.
 ,1. z ,1 ,.-i have shown an interest in the game, which is well worthy of it, being fast and open, and something doing all the time. The schedule for Decem Der games is as follows:
 December 3-Morenci at Clifton
