Senator Aldrich then suggested placing a
duty Of 10 cents a pound and 40 per cent

blacksmith tongs, surgical and dental in

A New One on Ari-
 zona Back East

Boston people are being shown a new way to shake hands. The latest manner of greeting IS bel g introduced in this city ny a csttleman from Gila Monster, Arizona. The Arizonan upon meeting a friend drops his right hand back on his hip and extends the let hand in good fellowship. When ssked for an explanation of this rather peculiar method, the man from the west stated that when at home he never extended his right hand. as it was dangerous to let it get that far away from h's gun, which he carried on his right side. According to him, people in Gils Monster extend their left hand, ct the same time, while while saying 'howdy' stranger they allow their right hand u creep back on the hip until the westener feels that he is not taking any updue chances in offering to shake hands. even though the man in front be not one friendly inclined"

Patent Granted for
 N0n- RefIIaale Bottle

R Nj Csttersou of Pheen'x has re- csived from Washington patent sttor- neys' certificates of pateutsbility on a non reliable bottle. which is his most recent invention.
 Inside the neck of the bottle there are grooves and small basins to hold three bslis. These balls ie one above the other in the neck. The one near. est the cork rests on a pivot aud has small conveying ducts at the sides SO that fluid inside the bottle may pass out when the bottle is inverted. When the bottle is in an upright position the ball close, the conduits. The ball at the base of the neck is set solidly in glsss, and the middle one floats. The action of these three balls vsries with the position of the bottle, but the result they effect is to allox fluids to pass out of the bottle but not in.
 The uon-refllable bottle is one which has become commercial neces- sity to distilleries where 1t sometimes happens that high gra'e liquors are often replaced by those of low quality, and to manufacturers of patent medi. cinces. who suffer from the practices of petty competitors.
 Mir. Catterson has also invented sn envelope for money shipments. If any attempt is made to abstract the contents from the envelope by either cutting or steaming, s conspicous red srlotch appears immediately on the envelope, warning postal authori- ties that the letter has been tempered with.
 Another of Mir. Catterson's inven- tions IS a spectacle machine for side walk use. If your eyes are out of condition you walk up to the machine, adjust the eye tester to the point where you can see it rightly, drop a coin in the slot and receive pair of glssses corresponding to that par ticular test.

Although Defeated;
 Highly Complimented

The Tombstone baseball team, sl though defeated, made 6 good name with the people of Tucson and left a host of friends at the old pueblo.
 The fans of Tucson were surprised at the excellent ball team from this place snd the boys had numbeiless compliments paid to them on account of their manly actions and spirit of far play manifested throughout.
 Tucson had players from different parts of the territory even members of the regular Douglas team and their star pitcher was hit harder hy the 1ombstone team than ever before by other teams visiting Tucson. The games were quick and snappy and something doing" for the fans at all times.
 The Tombstone boys played 6 good, c'ose game Monday, the game result. ing ? to o in favor of Tucson. Sun dave game was stopped on account of rain in the fifth inning. the score be- ing 5 to for Tucson.
 Tombstone had more men on bases during the game and by close de- cisions four men were out at home plate in trying to score A sensa- tionsl catch by Center Fielder Gsllen will go dosn in baseball history in Arizons, which put the approximately one thousand fans in . stste of cheer ing and excitement. Crable and Spikes pitched excellent ball and Edgar received them behind the bat to the satisfaction oi all.
 Tucson states that on all special occasions where they are to have base ball games that Tom bstone shall have the frst chance to get the games as they are clean ball players and leave their kicks and arguments at home.
 The Tombstone boys report their short visit as one that will be long re. membered by a of them, and their treatment far surpassed what was ex- pected az nothing was considered too good for them by the people of Tucson.
