Girl Wants An
 Arizona Cowboy

The postmaster at tucson, is 1T receipt of bcld, frank and decisiv' letter from gIrl in Dallas, Texas who comes out plain with the state. ment that she wants to correspond with cowboy.
 The letter reads as follows: Dear Postmaster: If you vii grant one favor for me you will certainly make one little girl happy and make her think that life is noi one d- thing after another.
 "That solitary request is this Won. you please give my name and address to one of your handsome cowboys?
 Be sure he is handsome. U.arge. strong, we'll spportioned, with dark eyes and hair You know the kind of men s seventeen tl7) year old glrl sdmires.
 .Now. please. don't mistake this for a matrimonial ad. l don't want to marry eff did there are plenty of men in Texss.) All l want is to correspond with a cowboy.
 "I have large hazel eyes, dark hair and real fair complexion. Am , it. in. tall and weigh llS lbs.
 Thanking you in advance, am sincerely"
 The girl with the hazel dark eyes Is just 6 bit discor certing in her statement that she is not floating Q matrimonial sd, but ''just wants to correspond." Cowboys are not usual. ly supposed to be long on correspond ence. They are more likely to be long on good nature and short on billet dieu1. Perhaps the girl that writes the letter has aspirations of being "the great American novelist and believes that she has field in starting in on the much overdone COW puncher, and is t,king this method of getting next to his in- imitsble lingo. Whatever her game is, che had better ship on her post office box number and get ready 6 dozen or so photographs for general later on. That's the only way to get into this game, Mabel.

Mexicans Organizing
 Anti-Diaz Clubs

A Cansnes correspondent of the Star ssys; Francisco J Madero. with his wife and secretary, came in on todsy's train. While not widely known outside of his own country. Madero is regarded with a great deal of respect and esteem throughout Mexico, and believed by some to be a patriotic man. His present mission IS to formulate clubs through this section to disseminate the principle that the president should serve for one x.yesr term ard be ineligible for reelection at any time afterward. Naturally, he is endesvoring to pre- vent the reelection of the present chief executive next fall A number of clubs have been organized and 8 meeting of representatives from all of them will be held in Mexico City next March.
 Csnanea people do not pay much attention to politics and the formation of . club is not expected. No ob. stacles are thrown in his way; 6 fact that disredits some recent publica- tions snent the conducting of companies in msnana land.
 At Alsmos the other day c striking example was set forth. AIsnos is the home of Ramon Corral and, oI course, is c Disz stronghold. The people decided that Msdero should no: speak and he found it impossible to procure either public or private hall. He at once sent telegram to Porfirio Disz, the answer to which put every gathering place in the town at his disposal. He goes at his object in 6 liberal, clean way, and is free to discuss his doctrines al will. Msdero is e native of the state of Coahuiis and is worth severs million dollsrs.

An Incident of Early
 Days in Tombstone

In the recent death of William Rene, aged 50 years, st the county hospita'. is revived a memory of the stirring times in the pioneer days Of Cochise county Rene was 8 far back Bisbee pioneer. On February 22, 1884. cane the climax to bold attempted robbery of the mercantile establishment of Gold water X Castsn- ada at Bisbee. and in this episode Rene was leading figure. A gang of five despersdces attempted to rob the Gold water & Csstensds store and killed several men and one woman in the attempt. They were rounded up and taken to jail at Tombstone. But a gang of pioneers organized and came to Tombstone and were joined here by large crowd. They dragged one of the members of the gang, William Heath, from the jail and proceeded to lynch him a. point just across the railroad track at tine foot of Tonghnut street. Rene is the man who chmbed the telephone pole, and flung the rope over the croes-arm. after which he assisted in hoisting the desperado into eternity. All the other robbers were condemned and were hanged in the jail yard by Sheriff Ward.
 Pictures of the hanging of Heath are among the souvenir. to be had of Tombstone.
 A curious relic of those dave is the verdict returned in the case of Heath, the man lynched. The coroners jury eat on his death. and rendered a verdict to effect that lone William Heath had come t, his death for the want of breath in high altitude. "

Arizona Hen Fruit
 is More Plentiful

Kansas has been termed "the land of the hen," and it is populsrly sup posed that there is @ hens nest under every bush in the Jayhawker state, while there is popular impression throughout the east that the only eggs available in Arizona are those laid by the Gils monsters and rsttle- snakes. At the present time, how ever, it appears that Arizona is more plentifully SUI piled with the fruit the hen than is Kapsas.
 A recent issue of 6 Salina, Kae ,, paper, contained story telling how some of the householders of that city badly in need of eggs. had paid 25 cents for two. That is not the regu- lar quoted price, but it appears that eggs are scarce ct any price back there.
 Here eggs are selling at 55 cent. per dozen. They are scarce, bu, there is no immediate prospect o anyone having to pay l21-2 cent, apiece for them. Good. fresh eggs ar, to b. had, if one is willing to pay 5! cents per dozen.
 G. B. Wood. superintendent of tn, i poultry department at the Arizon, fair, and one of the leading poultr, growers of Maricopa county, says that it now co.ts more than 45 cents pc dozen to produce eggs. Feed is higl all over the country and higher her than anywhere else. Fev hens CT laying now. and those that do la cannot pay for the feed of the otber'
 Mir. Woods expects to see eggs nor
 plentiful along about the end of Jar
 usry and the price will probably dro
 . little.

My Best Friend. Adios 1!

Written for THE PRosPECToR
 BY NED WHITE. Only a grave on the Mess, Only a grass covered mound, In the old cemetery at Tombstone, This simple sentence found; Written by hands un.killful, In lines uneven and close, Killed by Apaches in seveuty-eight My best friend, Adios." As I traced on the moss covered gran.
 ite,
 The words half plotted by years, thought of the good old timers The brave old pioneers. Tn fancy saw them standing, By the grave side gathered close Laying comrsde away to rect, Bidding a friend, adios. Now they have van ished forever, The old pioneers of the west, We find here and there by the way
 side,
 Their silent places of rest. The sentence that seems so simple, By unskillful hsnds written close, Tells what their lives and their hearts
 were,
 "My best friend, Adios."
