electricity use the crude oil almost ex-
clusively. as do ocean aud river steam

streets and country roads, and when
the road is once "made" but single

The acme of politeness can only be acquired by practice and we know 8 throbbing young Lothario in Tomb stone, who is on the right track. The light of the moon is just on snd az we saw a dim figure performing peculiar evolutions about a block away, we discreetly hid away and awaited developments.
 As he approached, he bowed and re- moved his nat to every lamp post in eight. He put out his hand in the attitude of bestowing bcquet on every fence post, and finished up by falling on his knees before telegraph pole, and audibly reciting, Hove of my life, without whom existence will be perpetual winter, in the case of whose refussl. whose heart will be broken into more pieces than the ten e,mmandmerts, Maid of Athens of my life, will you save me, have me, l mean marry me-" And the grim telegraph pole stood silently, "snd never a word quoth he" Guess who it is.

 The ostrich is raised only for plum age and each bird is valued at upssrd of Sl0O0; thus it will he seen that the new industry IS of considerable importance,
 Phoenix has about 2,5OO birds out Of a total of perhaps 1000 in the United States.
 The ostrich business is practically q trus, and a small ostrich farm is un- known ss it requires a large capital to conduct the business successfully. Therefore in this new industry Yuma has added q business of no small pros portions.
