ALITTLE NONSENSE.

He Is an actor rooster;
In winter goes away.
For he has been
Two seasons IN
A standard barnyard play.
And when the season closes
And Broadway loses charm.

Re boards the cars
And goes back to the farm.
Our hero through the summer
Maintains a lordly pose.
He makes no friends
Nor once unbends;
he only struts and crows.

YAQUIS FURNISH
 BOOZE PROBLEM
GET DRUNK EVERY SATURDAY
 NIGHT AND ARE DANGEROUS TO RANcHERs.

PHOENIX, Aug. 3.-It is high time that something was being done with a certain class of Yaquis who make it a practice to load up on cheap booze ev cry Saturday night and who from then on until morning are likely to do most anything. A wee6 ago one in that condition made every effort to wipe out the c. H. Green family on the Yeager ranch, and night before last another one drove off with Frank Say lor's horse and buggy.
 NIT. sayIor and his son came to town in the late afternoon. leaving the rig tied at the National bank corner. MT. saylor left a few purchases in the rig about half past seven and with his son attended the picture show. Re turning to the bank after thes show he found the outfit gone He notified the officers and securing another rig put in some time hunting over the town in the hope that perhaps the horse had broken loose and was stray ing about town. Finding nothing of it. he left for home about midnight Arriving there, he found the horse and buggy in the front yard. the horse trying vainly to get into the pasture. The buggy was occupied by a dead drunS Yaqui, who was rolled up in the seat snoring off the effect of the booze. MT. Saylor led the horse around to the barn and. opening the door of the granary woke up the sleeping Yaqui. He escorted him to the granary and locked the door on him. He then called up the officers and about 3 o'clock Constable Estrada arrived and took the man back to town, where he was lodged in jail for the rest of the night. He will have hearing on some sort of charge.
 The supposition is that the drunken Yaqui noticed the horse and got in the buggy with the idea of driving home. but falling alseep, the horse took the road it was most used to and travelled the seven miles in the dark without mishap Of any kind.

Father Worth Millions, But. Son Faces Five Years off Work as Result of a HaSty Marriage

SAN ANTONIO. Texas Aug. B. Marquis Alfred Henry Schwab de Sas- anova. a French noble. is in a tight fix. Although he recently inherited the sum of S2O0.OOO from his mother, and his father. the Marquis Paul Ed ward Schwab de Hericourt is worth something like Sl5.OOO,OOO, he may have difficulties during the next five years in meeting his board bills.
 The marquis troubles are all due to his hay ng married against the wish Of his father a young Cuban girl now the Marquise Carmen Junco. and having after a short period of married bliss deserted her in New York city The mother of the marquis did not blame her son to any extent for hay ing married the pretty Cuban and prior to her death she provided the young couple with an inner tance of S2OO000, stipulating. however, that the marquise should have certain author ity in the disposition of the money. On this ise provision the plans of the marquis were wrecked According to the marquis, when interviewed in this city. he left his raven haired Cuban belle, because our tempairs neyaire agree, onderstand?" This being the case the marquis went to Mexico Cfty to live with her broth CTS. Thither followed her noble hus- band after he had discovered that she had no inclination to let go Der hold on the fortune. By means of letters Marquis Alfred Henry had al ready tried his best to persuade her to surrender her claims, but profound silence was the only thing he met Growing desparate, he decided to go to Mexico City and plead with tthe marQuise in person. but ths, too, has proved to be in vain. The only avenue no wopen to the marquis Is to bring suit in the French courts. Before he has succeeded in getting his liberty in this manner he will not be able to separate the claim of the marquise from his inheritance. Lawyers. whom the marquis has con suited, say that 1t will take at least live years to bring the case to a conclusion. and that a great deal of money will go to cover the costs of the suit. the marquis having. accord ing to French and Mexican law. the privelege of paying all costs from the inner tanct of Alfred Henri. To make matters worse. his father, the Mar quis de HericOurt. has taken unto him self another wife. a girl of some twenty summers.
