Years ago the courthouse In San
Francisco fronted the old Plaza. A
trial was in progress, and counsel for
the defendant was cross examining
:he plaintiff. An earthquake sh.o'
the chandeliers and disodged some of
the ceiling. Judge Jurors, wltnesso-
and spectators rushed for the door:
but, finding that the seismic disturb
ance was over, they returned.
"Nou can proceed with the cross OK
animation OF the Witness" said the
judge.
Pardon me, your honor" said coun-
sci for the defendant. "but after the
late exhibition of the displeasurc OF
the Almighty at the lies this witness
was telling ! do not care to further
invoke divine wrath | will ask him

From the source in an ice cave. 13,S00 feet above the sea level. the river is sacred, and all who bathe in her waters are held to be purged of sin. according to the Indians.

CHARGE FERRIS WITH
 THREATENING ID KILL Police Lock up Man Who Is Said to HaveTod Mrs. Beauvais He
 Would End Her Life.

Charging that he had threatened tc kill her and then to end his own life Mrs. Sadie Beauvais, who conducts a lodging house in Jefferson street, last evening caused the arrest of George Ferris, who had been stopping at her house. Another man figures in the case and the police say it is he who first brought word to the police station of the attitude of Ferris toward Mrs. BeauVaiS.
 According to the police Ferris and Mrs. Beauvais have been friends since the arrival of Ferris in Phoenix early in the summer. Recently, it is claim ed, Mrs. BeauVais appeared to be tiring of Ferris, coincident with the appear anCe upon the scene of the other man. Last evening Mrs. BeauVais and Ferris were engaged in conversation when the other man appeared. Ferris induced Mrs. Beauvais to go into the house. Mrs. BeauVais is said to have spoken q few words to the second man who disappeared when Mrs. Beauvais en- tered the house.
 This man hurried to the police sta tion with a tale that caused the off Cers to hurry down to the Jefferson street house, where they found Mrs. Beauvais and Ferris talking. Officer F'raley told Ferris to accompany him to the police station. Later Officer Fraley returned to the house and from Mrs. Beauvais heard a story which indicated that jealousy between the two men was responsible for the frame of mind in which Ferris appeared last evening. She said that he had threat ened to take her life and then commit suicide Ferris was lodged in the city jail and the case reported to Justice Johnstone who directed that he be held without bail.

No oCourtship is, J Japara

~ HE Japanese have a more practical l side to their lovemaking and mar - riage than in any other of their customs. Every man who has ever been in love will be prepared to admit that the period of courtship. though exceed ingly delightful, is very anxious and try ing. both to heart and pocket The Jap anese has shown his practical nature by eliminating 1t altogether--at any rate as we understand 1t. Western ideas and Western civilization are fast becoming adopted In the Land of the Western Sun. and some of the marriage customs are gradually being brought into line with European fashions. but the ceremonies still remain sufficiently striking and quaint. The Japanese have altogether eliminated the courtship. and their mar riages are accomplished on the spur of the moment. This Is said to be one of the reasons why the ''diyorce evir' Is claimed to have such .a hold on the country.

 For more substantial reasons the Ganges deserves the gratitude of the na- lives, for though once in a while the waters overflow to the ruin of neigh boring buildings the inundations spread a rich deposit of alluvfal silt that h. sures fertility throughout the 3900o0 square miles covered by Its drainage basin. The chief trouble Is to be found in the frequent changes of the river bed, so that cities that have had fourishing docks In the past. today stand decayed far from the stream.

The railroad it is alleged, recently
