Robbers Tracked.

Monday Messrs. Lou Quinn and Lou Stevens of Patagonia. were a! Nogales, and they related their px. perience on Wednesday of las! week in following a couple of rob- hers who had stolen five saddles from the Sanford ranche, in the SonOita cannon. The two men fOl' lowed the robbers forty miles across the Santa Rita mountains, and overlook them. The horse carry. ing the saddles had become fOO.. sore and was ablndoned when the pursuit came in sight of the pur. suel. and the former captured f, getting the stolen saddles and another. The pursued were armed with Winchester rifles, while 0 inn and 5 evens had hut a single navy revolver. The robbers showed 8 disposition to use their rifles, keep ing the pursuers at such a distance that they could not recognize whom they were following. Next day Quinn and Stevens returned to th' scene with their own Winchesters, ready for fight, and prepared to take the trail and seek one, but the high wind which arose that day obliterated all tracks, and they could not find the trail taken Oy their quarry. They have an ide' who the thieves are, but they are not able to give legal evidence thereof.

OF COURSE HE WAS ENUMERATED.

great many people seem to be wor- ri, d because Theodore Roosevelt will net be counted by the census enumera tors Owing to the facs that the census sheets will have been turned in before the colonel returns to this country, he and the members of his family, who are with him in Europe will he omitted from the records. But there is no occa- sion for alarm. Colonel Roosevelt is one of those rare individuals who never need to be counted in order to be assured of place "among those present" As Dr. Hills eloquently said in a recent sermon, Roosevelt always throws eixes.' We do not presume to be able to give a professional definition of the meaning of the phrase "to throw sxes, " but we believe it has something to do with being on the winning side. In any event, there is no reason 10 fer that the colonel will cease, because he is not enumerated, to be Americas most dis tingnished citizen, ,-Chicago Record Herald.

Out in Nebraska they are eating alfal fla biscuit. The alfalfa biscuit is some- thing new under the sun. Half the families in Omaha are said to be eating it, and they like it. The dry alfalfa leaves are ground and mixed with meal and fl ,ur
 To make the alfalfa meal and flour, the grass is cut early in June, and at d time when it is in full bloom. It is cured in the sun, and if possible, with out being wet by rain When lhronglI- ly dry the leaves are stripped from the stalks, and these leaves, m xed with wheat at the ratio of one-third alfalfa and two-thirds wheat, are grou q into d coarse meal. This meal is used for cakes as well as for a breakfast food That desired for bread is ground still finer and when placed upon the market can be sold for about 80 cents per sack of 50 pounds, where as a good grade o wheat flour will retail at $l60 to $1.7; sack Ol the same weight.

 world that has fallen to the lot of women it has been found that woman need the ballot to aid them in that work. In Illinois q band of noble women instituted an in- industrial school for girls. They built it and they maintained it by giving fairs, socials and oyster suppers. Someone said to them You are doing the state great service by keeping off from the streets these girls; the state should support this institution" 50 they sent committee to the legislature with bill for an appropriation to support the industrial school for giIls. Said the legislators: We svmpathlze with this lhudable ob
 j4ct. and will give the bill our sup port when 1t comes up; but hrst we have all these bills to attend to for our conslituents-th0se who voted to send Us here." So the bill vent along, until the close of the session, and the legislature ad burned wlth- out making the appropriation asked to support the already estab
 lished industrial school for glrl- and the phll4nthropic women con
 tinued it's support by giving fairs, socials and oyster suppers. Two years later they went to the legls. lature again and asked all appro. prlatinn. Agaiu was their measure put off by other measures backed bv men with votes, and the legisla.
 ture adjourned without making the appropriation asked by the women to support the industrial school for girl-, which the women continued to support as they ha'I done from the beginning. Finally the third legislature asked for al
 appropriation granted it, and iht state of Illinois now supports the industrial school for girls. Some philanthropic men seeing the gooC work of the industrial school fol girls conceived that similar in sli
 tuition for boys was needed. s,
 they went to the Illinois legislature with bill for an appropriation tc
 huild such a school and support it Unlike the women with the indus
 trial school for girls these men hat

 their bill was passed, received

center being less, there is correspond
ingly less chance for a break to occur
on the main feeder. This duplication
is required for full recognition and low
insurance rates by the underwriters.
ca Pine Knob affords opportunities
for furnishing high-level service for the
Soldiers Home, the Normal College
and other high elevations, either by
tapping the main supply line just be-
fore it reaches the city or by using a
throttling valve in the supply main
where the high-leyel branch joins il.
Hartsell's has not this advantage.
(5) Pine Knob being near, it is easy
to cut Off the reservoir entirely, if, in
an emergency, such as a large fire NJ
the Normal College, high pressure
is wanted on the ridge; by cutting Off
the reservoir, the pressure in the re-
manning pipes will rise greatly, reach
ing the full height of the springs if no
water flowed to reduce it by friction.
Hartsell's has not this advantage, be-
cause the distance and time required
fuckers has this advage only partially.
(6) Water is taken out by the con-
sumner before it reaches Pine Knob,
hence the consumer gets water directly
from the springs, without even the
chance of any effect of its standing in
a reservoir; this could be only partial
ly true for fuckers and not for Hart
sells. Pine Knob reservoir would.
thus serve only as an emergency re-
serve and consumers would seldom, if
ever, get any water from it.
ca Pine Knob is more central for
the future than any otber elevated site;
the railroads are around it and future
industries will probably surround it
with large consumers and large fire
risks.
(S) The overflow will generate over
100 horse power, which can be sold for
several thousand dollars annually;
this could not be done from Hartsell's
and from fuckers the distribution Of
electric power or lights would not he

(9) The character of the material

able than that at the other sights, some
what cheaper to excavate and some
what tighter for water.

1t has been suggested that the law
yers, and not the people, should select
the judges of the higher courts, on
the ground that they are better qualifi-
ed to select capable men to wear the
ermine. With the lawyers who APP
pear to think that way we can not
agree and for good and sufficient rea-
sons. In the first place, we think the
lawyers should not be allowed to par
ticipate in nominating judges at all on
the high moral ground that they are
interested parties and not competent
to act. The lawyers who are entitled
to be called such make their living by
their practice in the higher courts-the
final decision either enlarges or dimin-
ishes the fee and more or less makes
Shylocks of them almost noble
judge. Suppose lawyer could control
the vote of county in a convention,
do you suppose for one moment that
he would cast it for a judge who had
persistently decided cases so as to re-
duce his fees, regardless of the eXtraor-
binary ability of the Judge? If he
would thus heap Goals of fire upon the
head of the honorable judge he has
missed his calling-he ought to have
been an editor or minister We
know there are men who are above
these petty feelings, but there are so
many who are not that it is best to
not give the profession the exclusive
right to select the bench. On the
other hand, some of the lawyers might
be inclined to re-elect members who
had decided cases in their favor, re-
CARELESS of their ability. We heard an
able attorney say once that certain
member of a high court was not much
of lawyer, but he had decided a big
case for his client and had no kick

coming. This is human nature and
there is no way to eyade the feeling.
And think of the attitude in which
such plan places the courts. A cor
rect decision against an influential
lawyer may mean the loss of county
and an incorrect one in his favor may
win-it's another case of the lady or

should not be placed in. These are a
few of the reasons why we believe the
people should select the courts, with
out the help of lawyers, if possible, and
makes any method that will give the
people voice very desirable. We are
just as much opposed to lawyers nam
ing the judges as we are to judges ac

CITY COUNCIL
SO DECIDES
THE SITE FOR RESERVOIRS
Option Taken Upon the Land at
$3,5OO.0O Until Bonds
Are Issued.

At a called meeting of the board last
night the reservoir question for the
new water pant was finally settled.
The board unanimously decided upon
selecting the pine knob site which
contains thirty or forty acres for the
following reasons:
~ From the business center it is
much nearer than either of the other
sites, less than half the distance to the
fuckers ridge site, and less than one
third that to the Hartsell site, making
the loss of pressure due to friction in
the long pipes correspondingly less;
this friction loss is large when deliver
ing large number OF fire streams; for
II fire streams ii would be So 81 and
1877 feet loss of pressure fore the three
sites named, respectively.

water with equal losses of pressure
from either of the three sites would
require larger mains, hence greater
expense for either fuckers or Hart.

from the springs passes through The
