Young girls appear to experience no radgue after it. They will not miss single waltz, polka or square dance but if the pulse of one of these indefatigabe devotees is felt after the dance is finished it will be found in the majority of cases that the number of pulsatons is far in excess Of the normal and from this 1t may be inferred that the condition of the heart must react prejudi cially upon the entire organism, and 1t tustihes an apprehension of danger to delicate girls.

just as the appearance of the almanac for the new year anticipated with keen interest. Another of these forerunners of our present-day comic valentines was published in London dur ing the same period and bore the highly signif- cant title: "Hymen's Revenge Against Old Maids, Old Bachelors, and Impertinent Coxcombs; a New Valentine Writer Being Collection of Val entines Humorous and Satirical. chiefly original. written expressly for this work.
 Some idea of the caustic ammunition pro yfded by these helpers of the composers of valen- tines may be formed from the following speci- men verse addressed "To Lady Who Squints:" They yield most convenient sight:
 Convenient. I do not derde

 One of the most novel features of the begin nines of the comic valentine craze was the ap- pearance of tradespeople's valentine writers con- taining all sorts of verse especially designed to apnly to devotees of the various vacations and lines of mercantile trade. Such reference work made good-sized volume, for, In order to be complete it had to embody verses for every imaginable trade and occupation There were some sentimental tributes included in each vol ume of this character, but for the most part the contents consisted of more less humorous references.
 The system was certainly convenient one. for not only gibes and appeals provided, hut there was also appended favorable and un- favorable replies for each such advance, so that the recipient of of the valentines thus de- rived had only to consult the book in order to ascertain the proper reply For instance. a gro ger could address his lady love as follows

Robin Redbreast's Valentine

A girl and boy wandered forth into fair pleasant garden that looked like fairyland a though 1t was wintry weather
 Suddenly the girl spoke.
 T wish St. Valentine had had the snowdrop instead of the crocus dedicated to him."
 And as she spoke she knelt down and raising one of the white. dropping flowers, she gazed lov- ingly at its pure white petals and at the delicate green tracery of the leaves of it's inner cup

 'Of course it is,'' answered her companion. Now, it is quite different with the birds; they can make themselves understood. They sing songs of thanksgiving and their note of joy mourning is easy to tell. They scold and chat ter as the jackdaw and rock, screech like the owl, or sing serenade as the nightingale. And one of them speaks clearly, for when he cries cuckoo. cuckoo, we know that the sum- is coming.

STAGE Held Up.
(Silver City independently }

The Mogollon stage, which left
that camp at an early hour Thursday
morning, was held up by two masked
men after it had only proceeded on
its journey a distance of two miles.
Besides the driver. the stage carried
four passengers, Leo Higdon, ste
nographer for the Socorro Mines,
and three Mexican women who occu-
pied the rear seat. At a particularly
rugged portion of the mountain road
the bandits suddenly appeared, one
of them grabbing the horses while
the other covered the driver and MIR
Higdon with gun. One of the men
then made the women dismOunt one
by one, and as they did so he search
ed them thoroughly for money or
other valuables securing in all $3.50
in cash besides gold bracelet and a
valuable diamond ring. 1t is report
ed that the dryer became so fright
ened that he called to. the robbers
that he had watch, but they told
him to keep it. After robbing the
women the highwaymen disappeared
in the darkness and the stage con-
tinued on its journey to Glenwoo1,
where the story of the holdup was
told. The robbers were evidently
Mexicans who had correctly surmised
that the three women who were
leaving town would be well supplied
with cash. 1t is said that the driver,
who had only recently entered the
service, Immediately resigned his
job to seek some avocation less haz-
zardous. Only once before was the
Mogollon stage ever held up. At the
present writing the robbers have not
yet been apprehended.

TERRITORY WILL PAY
ELECTION EXPENSES.
Young Tells supervisors to Send All
Statehood Bills to Him.

Secretary Young served notice on
the board of supervisors that the ter
ritory, acting for the government,
will pay all the expenses of the elec-
tions to be held in Arizona in con-
nection with the formation of the
new state. Young asks that the
supervisors buy all election supplies
on competitive bids, and that vouch-
ers be sent to him. He declares that
the secretary's office will even pay
all the clerks and all election boards.
Thomas expressed some doubt about
the legal right of the secretary to
assume these duties as the laws of
1901, under which the elections are to
be held, place such matters in the
hands of the boards of supervisors.
Congress appropriated 100000 for
conducting the statehood elections,
and it is this fund that Secretary
Young will handle in paying the bills
contracted in the several counties.

PrOhibitiOniStS Hard Hit In Lone StaT
State.

San Antonio, Texas.-While it
would be premature to say that pro-
hibition in Texas had been definitely
defeated, there is now no longer any
doubt that the state will not go dry
for long time to come, if, indeed, 1t
ever will. 10 addition to giving Col
quit, the anti-proeibition candidate
for governor, an unexpectedly large
ma jority, voters at the primary polls
are divided almost every question of
submission. In view of the fact that
the latter phase of this years cam
paign does not represent the liquor
question as much as it does a princi-
pie in democratic government, this
also constitutes defeat for the pro-
hibitionists. Returns indicate that
fully one-half of the citizens who
voted for submission, would vote
against a constitutional amendment
prohibiting the traffic of alcoholic
beverages in the state. The stand
taken by them is that the submission
of such an amendment to a vote of
the people is constitutional right
they haye and that final settlement
of the prohibition question to the
satisfaction of all can only be
brought about by submission.
Johnson, the prohibition guber-
Material candidate, did not make as
lne showing as his friends expect
ed, and with Poindexter, who ran on
platform similar to his own on the
liquor question, the prohibition fac
tion polled only about as many votes
as did Colquitt by himself. David
son, an anti in favor of submission
made a rather poor run but added
considerably to the anti side. With
but few returns out, the autis are
running the pros in proportions of II
to 8. The vote in favor of submis-
sion is only several hundred stronger
than that of the i-prohibitionists
and the final count may even reduce
this majority. The candidates for
lieutenant governor shared in the
main the favor or disfavor of the
gubernatorial candidates from the
same camp.

The Assessment Roll.

The Chicago Board of Reyiew has
stricken from its assessment list the
name of every head of a family
whose wages are less than SIS week.
The board took the ground that such
a person was already performing his
dened by taxes Modern methods
are recognizing the fact that the
burdens of the government ought to
be borne by those who are most inter-
ested in them. The old republics of
antiquity went down into dust heap
because they taxed the small pro-
pucer out of existence. When Lucul-
lus, the old Roman general, conquer
ed Asia Minor he brought such an
army of captives to Rome that the
price of a full grown laborer fell to
seventy-fve cents a head. 1t was
easy for the patricians to buy up
large tracts of land, cultivate the
soil by means of this cheap labor and
drive the small farmer out of busi-
ness, and this was done. When the
barbarians swept into Italy they
found no free men to obstruct their
progress. The whole of the PENN
sula was occupied by slaves and the
Roman Empire was submerged by
the greed of its rulers. They paid
in blood and tears for the outrages
which they had inflicted upon their
fellowmep. We are now beginning
to see that, of all taxes levied for
the support of the government, the
most just is the income tax, which
takes from the ''uuearned incre-
ment" which they have absorbed
from the real workers. This money
properly belongs to the state and it
is travesty upon the law that the
supreme court has hitherto protect
ed the capitalists at the expense of
the producers.

though fortunately none of his cuts
we're deep or painful. In the course
of an hour or so he prevailed upon
the engineer to return with him to
see what had happened to Mr.. Cook.
They found that gentleman still play
ing the part: he was behind a tlee,
saving that last shot for time when
it would do the most damage to the
raiders. The better part of the rest
of the night was devoted by Mr..
Kinster to telling how it happened,
much to Mr.. Crooks distress for he
wanted to sleep. Illuminating on the
events of the raid Mr.. Kinster sud-
denly thought of the dog, Blanche,
that had accompanied him to the
creamery. "She's a h-of a dog" he
remarked. She couldn't begin to run
as fast as did,
1t was not until well along yester-
day forenoon the Mr.. Kinster began
to see through it. He left last even

him he should be said that his depart
ure at that time had been pre-ar-
ranged. He did'nt leave because he
was afraid. This sounds like a tale
that was reported from Morenci a
