 WOMAN's suFFRAGE-A recent arrival from Europe says that the United States is a very bad place for woman suffragists because all the sidewalks are entirely devoid of iron railings which are so prevalent in the old countries. In England a few weeks ago several of the ladies with strong desires to lead men, were giv- ing their ideas on things in general when they were arrested by the po- lice on the charge of disturbing the peace, but these women had been arrested before and had taken the precaution to chain and lock them selves to the iron railings, in order to get out of a ride in the hurry up" wagon. It took a blacksmith and the police about an hour to get them to the station house.

 A CLUB TEA.-The woman's Club will hold a social session Tuesday aft ernoon in. the club rooms, when the members will be the guests of the ex- ecutive board of the club.
 MISSIONARY SOCIETY. - The Woman's Home Missionary Society will meet this afternoon at o'clock at the Central Methodist Episcopal church. A large attendance is re- quested as it is the day for the cleo tion Of officers.
 A LETTER FROM A PHOENIX BOY-A letter has just been received here by his father from George Chen oweth, Phoenix youth who IS serv- ing his country as an enlisted man in the United States navy; being now on the battleship Connecticut. George enlisted some time ago at Los An geles at the age of IS, his father hay ing released him to enter the service for three years. The letter came from Gibraltar, whence the American fleet sailed for home a day or so ago. George announced himself as well and happy and quite satisfied with his life and prospects, and incidentally seeing a good bit of the world for a young man.
 LIKE OLD TIMES-Joe Monihan was pressed into service again Satur- day night as an expert violinist, after the manner of the -olden time when he held the "champeen" bit of Arizona as a single handed fiddler. The occasion was the gathering of a large party at the home of c. c. Hurley, a sort of reunion of the former residents of St. Lawrence county. New York, whence came lot of the best people on earth when Phoenix was first settled. It would have been extravagant to hire twentieth century talent for the dance music, when such old masters as Joe were among the guests, and 1t would have been something of an affront to have overlooked him. He more than made good and put the wiggles into many old dry bones that hadn't shaken a foot for years.
 GLAD TO BE ARRESTED-Joe Clarry is in the county jail charged with the embezzlement of a horse from Bucks livery stable at Tempe, on December 21. Clarry hired the horse and never returned it. He brought the animal to Phoenix and sold it to Fred Jacobs at the Five Points corral for $45. Before any complaint had been made against him he left the country and though he was heard from at sev- eral points in the south, before he could be located at any one, he had moved somewhere else. A few days ago he reappeared in this neighbor- hood and found work on farm south of Tempe. When he was arrested he manifested neither surprise nor regret. He said he was not sorry. He had gotten tired of being a fugitive and now the thing was off his mind.
