THE BEYS GUEST.
Hs Was Ready For the Emergency and
Conquered the African.


Conquered the African.
A show of force is often the best
kind Of diplomacy. A writer in the
Paris Temps tells story Of the French
admiral Dupetit-Thouars, who had
| been intrusted with the mission Of
exacting reparation from an African
hey who had insulted French consul.
AS Dupetit-Thouars' demands were
supported by the forcible argument Of
loaded cannon. the hey acknowledged
that he had been too hasty and prof
fered profuse apologies. lie even in
vited the admiral to his table and had
a sumptuous repast prepared for his
guest.
The consul warned the admiral to be
on his guard.
1.-THE hey is inclined to be malicious"
said he, land when he strokes his
beard and smiles you may be sure that
he is connecting some mischief"
I'VE shall see," was Dupetit-Thouars
reply.
time. Profuse compliments and salu-
tations were exchanged. All at once
the admiral's foot met some soft,
hairy substance lying on the carpet I'M
der the table. He bent down and saw
a huge lion showing his formidable
teeth. The hey smiled and strOked his
beard.
Dupetit- Thouars did not vince. but
called his dragoman.
"My pistols" was all he said.
The servant saluted, retired and
brought back a pair Of pistols on a
silver tray. The admiral took them
and placed them on the table before
him. But the hey, still smiling, contin-
ued to stroke his patriarchal beard.
Tell the commander" he said to
the dragoman, that If those pistols are
for the purpose Of blowing out my
lions brains they are quite insufficient
and perfectly useless"
Then, like skilled fencer counter
ing his opponents thrust, after the
bey's ironical advice had been trans
lated Dupetit-Thouars replied:
"Tell his highness that my pistols are
not there to kill his lion, but to blow
his own brains out at the first move

Gravely, but a little pale, the man
interpreted.
The smile died away on the bey's
lips, and he no longer stroked his
beard.

but since he is not wanted he shall be
sent away"
At word from the hey the lion
slowly and heavily left the room, like
an obedient dog.

Odd or Even,

This is a game played by two per-
sons. one of whom holds any number
Of small Objects while the other
guesses whether that number is odd
or even. If he guesses correctly he
wins. The objects are usually such as
can be held in the closed hand, such
as pennies. beans or pebbles, but fin
gers may be held up instead. This
amusement is very old The Romans
called 1t par, impair" and the Greeks
named it also 'zuga azuga" (yokes or
no yokes), for what reason is unknown
The name may be corruption, since
the similar Sanskrit words "yuj" and
"ayuj" mean odd and even.

WORKING ON THE DEVIL

Somebody is trying to save the sec ond devil of The Republican by throwing a prayer chain around him. Yesterday he received the prayer through the mails with the accom- panying letter: You must send this prayer, one day for nine days to nine different people. If you do, on the ninth day, you will experience some great joy and be delivered from all trouble, but if you do not send it or pay any attention to 1t, you will have an accident or something bad will happen to you" The second devil expects an accident nine days hence.
 CEMENT SIDEWALKS - Those whose business or pleasure takes them about town have been struck with the great volume of cement side walk building that is going on. For sometime the average expenditure for sidewalk laying has been $3.000 a week. Attention has been called to the mistake that many property own CTS are making. They are having sidewalks laid over wooden street drains, which even if new would soon rot and which long before they rot will cause the cement above them to crack It has been advised that those building sidewalks can obtain iron pipe from the city for such ditches or drains but the pipe will be difficult to keep clean. The better thing to do and not an expensive thing Is to have a square cement drain put in. That will be easily cleaned and will last as long as the sidewalk.
 TO BANQUET LEGISLATURE The matter of banqueting the mem bers of the Arizona legislature has been under consideration for some time and yesterday has been under consideration for sometime and yes terday it was brought to a point by the proposition being put to President Foss of the board of trade, to have that body undertake the office of host on such an occasion. President Foss was agreeable and appointed a committee of arrangements to take charge of the project, set the date, make all the plans, and have full charge of the function. The commit tee appointed is H. J. McClung, Barry Goldwater, Lloyd B. Christy, M. c. McDougall, J. J. Sweeney, and P. T. Hurley.
