Taxes Lower in New County

Whenever the matter of county divis-
ion is talked somebody springs the idea
of increased taxation as result that is
sure to follow. This did not prove the
case in the new county of Grant, organ
lied by the last legislature, as the tax
rolls of the new county show that its
rate is only about one-half what it was
in the old county of Douglass.

ANOTHER HOBO IS

.'YPsI sLIMy ESSAYS TO TRAVEL OVER THE COUNTRY WITHOUT ANY MONEY.

Over a year ago a tramp styling himself A No. IT, came through these parts, tacking his monogram on plazas. parks and public buildings. Ills direction was marked by an ar TOW, and according to it's direction he was headed east when he left here
 "A. No. r. is now engaged in writ ing a book back east describing his travels while "bumming' his living from ocean to ocean, but while he's doing it somebody else is after the same kind of laurels.
 The latest hobo with a monogram and anxiety for notoriety is an in dividual known as "Ypsi Slim" From his name he evidently nails from Ypsilant. Michigan. and is bent upon the same sort of al excursion as udertaken by his predecessor. "A. No. r travelled from ocean to ocean and back again without a cent. When they heard his mission people felt honored in housing and feeding him. "Ypsi Slim is evidently trying the same stunt and getting away with it Slim is bound in a westerly direction and plans to make Frisco before Halley's comet strikes the earth.

NINETY CENTS IN TIE
 PARSONS" SKULL
DEAD NEGRO CARRIED TEN CENT PIECES AS RESULT OF SURGICAL OPERATION.

It is strange to relate that any man is buried with ninety cents in his skull, but that was what happened to -Parson" Brown. the negro boot black who died several days ago at the county jail.
 Several years ago as was h's woi, S3.Owl became engaged in fight lie was laid out by a blow from some weapon that clove his skull. The wound was right in front, just above he forehead. II was necessary to trephine the skull in order to save Browns life, which was done.
 The cavity necessary to fill could lust be covered nicely by nine ten ~elt pieces. They were collected rom among Browns friends. inserted md the job was complete.
 Brown. it is said. was in a great sabit. when intoxicated. to butt his head against a wall or anything that happened to be around. It is claimed hat he used these tactics when con- fined in the county jail. and that in one of his tantrums he struck the head upon this one weak spot, which hastened his death.

PHOENIX BEEF IS
 SPREAD ON DESERT
ALSO LAMB CHOPS AND OTHER GOOD THINGS WHEN TovREA's HORSE RUNS AWAY.

F. Al Toyrea's meat wagon made a trip to Warren yesterday morning la den with choice foodstuffs for delivery and although the intentions of horse and driver were good when they started out. several families in the city Beautiful had to go without their steaks and chops at the noon-hour.
 Ascending h'n at the upper end or town, the horse took fright at a canine chasing imaginary foes about ! leigbboring lot. The horse started to run and made direct for rock with size enough attached to it to beat blazes out of aforesaid wagon and turn it top-downward on the turf or what represents turf in Arizona
 This it did full well and good. Port erhouse steaks were mixed with lamb chops and pork roasts in such fashion hat referee couldn't separate them. With this was the ingredient known to matrons and maids as dirt, and although the driver did his best to save the outfit, it was no use and all was practically dead loss. The
 orse. which had broken from the rig. was caught and brought back, he wagon righted and an effort made 'o supply the customers over again before the day Closed.
 And the dogs at Warren lived high all day.

COMET STORIES ARE
 COMING ID FRORl
EARTH DOOMED, MExicANs PRAY. AND HORSE RUNS AWAY, ALL IN ONE DAY.

With the fact that Halley's comet is approaching nearer the earth each day and will be close enough to suit those with qualms of conscience on the 18th. all kinds of stories are go- ing the local rounds. The latest comes from Lars Hagenson. miner living up Brewery Gulch.
 He says that yesterday morning he was coming home from work about the time was at its brightest. He saya he saw an unusually bright star shoot down from a owe and run into the comet. no doubt being absorbed in it's attraction. He thinks the star was drawn from its position by the gravity believed to be possessed by the phenom. and having given some attention to astronomy. is of the opinion that the earth stands an equal chance Of being swallowed up in its vortex-

traverses that territory which. before the

American Desert" This was the desert
the home OF wild beasts, Of sage brush

cred from the fact that millions of acres
of land, apparently worthless, have ad-
vanced to $1,000 and in some cases. as high
as $4,000 an acre This increase is, Of course,
due to the astonishing yield Of crops

and comprehensive grasp Of what the
building of the road meant to the United
States that induced congress to pass
liberal laws and made It possible to raise
the funds to accomplish the work.
Military Necessity.
President Lincoln regarded the building
of the road as a military necessity for the
purpose of protecting and holding Cali
fornia in the union. The task Of its con-
struction proved too much for private in
dividuals and the government gave help;
1t was too much OF a task for one company
and so the work was divided, the Central
Pacific railroad to build eastward from
Sacramento, Cal, and the Union Pacific
westward from Omaha Ground was first
broken at Omaha on December 2, 1868, and
the golden spike joining the two roads at
Promontory Summit, Utah, was driven on
May 10, 1869. or the entire road. the Union
Pacific had laid 11S6 miles of track and
the sentral Pacific 6SS miles. In later
years, the western terminus OF the Union
