more orchards planted. Many farni-

CONDITIONS OF THE YANKEES
 NOT so BAD AFTER ALL.
Mesa Man Returns After a Pleasant
 Summer Visit.

Dan Mahoney has returned from Boston. his old home. For thirty years MT Mahoney has applied his energy in the west until he has be- come a part of it. Not once in near a third of a century has he visited the scenes of his childhood and in that time he has drifted away from the customs and habits of the Bostonese until his visit this summer to his old home, which was like a trip to strange land.
 The conditions of the people of the east are not nearly as bad as has been reported. according to MT. Ma honey. He is of the opinion that money is as plentiful in the east as anywhere he has been in the west and that the people live just as happily and enjoy a good many more luxuries than can be afforded in a new coun- try. The visit was primarily for the purpose of visiting relatives. Some of the relatives have lain by a store of financial wealth and others have gone in the other direction and are laborers just as is the case with nearly every family with an equal start and after going against the world for thirty years. While MT. Mahoney found ideal conditions and saw a number of interesting sights and was able to understand how the people of the east can be contented to remain in the one place throughout their lives, yet he was satisfied to come home again, all though the parting with old-time friends was necessarily painful.

THE
 VEIL OF FU1uR|IY
Fortunes of Mesaites Are Being Con
 eisely Foretold.

A band of Gypsies, who lay claim to the ability to reveal the future, are obtaining money under false pre- lenses by reading the palm of Mesa ties by the score. The bunch struck the town some time Sunday and yes terday began their unravelling of mysteries at 25 cents per head. The dark k-complected man marched forth forth and caused trouble for the light haired. blue-eyed lady. and the fair haired lad fell in to an immense amount Of money and died rich and the father of ten children. Here a light completed man made a long journey and found a large sum of money, while there a blue-eyed man interferred in the courtship of a dark eyed woman and a great amount of trouble was the result. All up and down the line futures were spun out as long as the palm of the fortune teller was crossed with the necessary amount of silver.
 There is something savoring of the unenlightened age about fortune tell ing, yet it has that mysterious some thing to it that appeals more or less to every one. The business man be- lieves that it is undignified to give credence to fortune telling and he is probably right, yet he is probably at times influenced by some sort of sup erstition equally as illogical. The man who will scoff at the idea that thirteen works havoc with his plans may refuse to start in business on Friday. Everyone does not believe fin fortune telling. but there are very few people who do not, unconsciously per haps, have some superstitious hobby that directly influences them. That is why fortune telling can be made to pay.

THE UNVEILED SKY
 IS BRIGHTEST HERE
Mars, Shining in the East Like Tiny Sun, Is the Subject of Inquiry.

A number of inquiries received at this office as to the two bright lights to be seen in the heavens-one in the east and the other in the west-lead one to the conclusion that the stars shine brighter in Arizona than any where else.
 Attention was called last night to the brilliant light in the east. The in quirer advanced no theory of his own as to what it was. It looked too big for star and too high up for a searchlight or other mundane appli- ance for illumination. The majority of those who mistake the intense bril- liancy and magnitude of stars for something terrestrial are usually new arrivals in the territory and have not yet come to appreciate the fact that, on account of the clearness of the att mosphere. star will burst over the horizon with the effulgence of little sun.
 The light in the east is the planet Mars, which on September IS will be nearer the earth than at any time since 1902. It will not be very close at that except in an astronomical sense. for it will still be 36,000.000 miles away. Approximately it would require 160 years for railroad train, running at top speed day and night. to cross bridge between Mars and the earth.
 Mars is now by far the brightest object in the sky. To the north of it is another bright planet. Saturn. Both are in the constellation of the Fishes. Both planets are interesting objects seen through a small telescope. The rings of Saturn are well widened out, and Mars may be observed to better advantage for the next two weeks than in many years.

 MT. Clark is identified with several of the business institutions of the town, being a trustee of the Mesa Union high school, as well aS direc- tor of the Mesa Dairy and Ice cOm- pany. However. he has been called to labor for his church, and wnetber it may be called a sacrifice to enter upon the mission field or not 1t is, nevertheless. a loss to the town.
 In view of the fact that Mir. Clark is to soon leave upon the mission, public reception is to be rendered him at the Mesa opera house on Friday evening Of this week. .
