Arnold Hawkins. Leon Ellsworth and Glenn Stapley were greatly taken by surprise Thursday evening by seeing. close down by the horizon. the Haley comet So far as is known they were the only inhabitants of Mesa who saw the unusual spectacle. and when they reported it to their elders the latter were prone to believe that the boys had been deceived by a mere falling star Halley's comet. they explained confidently. was not due to appear for some months to come They had the word of the worlds foremost as- tronomers for it. Nevertheless. the boys were right. The comet did appear about o'clock a short distance above the horizon and was seen Dv chance observers in many parts of the coun- try. It was higher in the sky last night and visible for a much longer time. The tail. supposedly composed or the thinnest Of gases. was about ten degrees in length.

THE PERFUME OF MONEY.

Postal employees are the most hon. est chaps in the world" said a se- cret service man. The only time a postal employe ever falls from grace is att the holiday season. when fool ish persons send one another pres ents Of banknotes-
 "A banknotc has sweet and pleasant odor. easily distinguishable through a sealed envelope. Every nan through whose hands a letter containing banknotes passes can smell the money. That smell. if he is hard up. is as delicious to his nos .rils as the smell of grilling fish to : famished cat.
 Rarely. as I said before. does a ,osIal employe fall. When he does it is the fault of the public-the fool ish public. that too irresistibly tempts him with the sweet odor of the banknotes that it sends, as pres ents, through the mails"

MARSHAL PETERSON
 ON POINT OF SHOOTING
Felt the Necessity of Checking Ross
 Daley's Forward Impetus.

Shouts of hilarity, rapid beating of hoofs and a general pandemonium of noise assailed the ears of slumberers along Main street Thursday night, and as result Ross Daley, a militant brother of James Daley, was never so near in his life to being shot He probably will never come SO near it again without feeling the bullet
 Daley was one of number of young men who started out in a buggy from one of the downtown saloons st a late hour of the night. Their loud laugh ter and shouts began to puncture the atmosphere and Marshal Peterson. who had witnessed their departure from the saloon, followed them eastward along Main street. As they reached ,the resi- dence portion of the street. the yells and the babel of tongues redoubled in volume. About that time Peterson caught up with them. stopped their on- ward progress and delivered a fatherly lecture on disturbance of the peace, concluding with request that they have a talk with Justice Irwin the fol- lowing morning
 At this juncture Ross Daley arrived in a highly cumulative mood. Leaping to the ground he informed the world that he had been making no noise and that anyone remarking to the con trary was a blanketv- blank liar. off cer or no officer. At the same time he lunged toward Peterson with quart bottle in his hand until stopped by the appearance of the marshars siX-shooter and the marsharG casual remark: Ross, if you ain't mighty careful, something's going to happen to you'
 Daley discarded the bottle at once and dived one hand into a pocket a most unfriendly movement Right then he confronted death. but like flash Dudley Duke. another of the party. sprang in front of Daley and argued him into submission.
 After some further barley. in the course of which Daley said he had had but one drink and the marshal retorted that it seemed to have made mighty big fool of him-wondered what a dozen would do-the buggy and it's occupants were allowed to proceed and were heard later arousing the echoes in Mexican town.
 Marshal Peterson was looking for the men yesterday to remind them of their appointment with Justice Irwin Daley and another of the party were located about noon and their trial set for 1 o'clock.

SAN FRANCISCO HERSELF AGAIN.

Sar Francisco after the earthquake and fire of April. 1906, had a grand opportunity to follow the example or Burbank and Muir in combining beau ty with utility Some of the streets, at any rate. might have been built on easy contour lines instead of the mo- notonous parallels so ill-suited 10 this hilly site: but all attempts at this. or at widening some of the narrow busi- ness streets, or bonding the city for new parks and playgrounds. failed. Selfish interests prevented any con certed action. and the chance is lost
 Yet it would be unjust to infer from this that Joaquin Miller was right when he wrote, long before this ca lamity, that the heart of California. san Francisco, is comparatively with out heart. loyalty, or love of home.
 Surely history records no more re- markable display of loyalty and love of home than that which impelled the victims of this catastrophe 10 begin rebuilding before the ashes were cold. and rebuild at such a record d-breaking rate that the prediction made by both David Starr Jordan and Benjamin Ide W tlistl III itNt Ntdto toeiil cisco would be herself again. seems likely to come true. We found piles of calcined bricks, fire-twisted masses of iron. ashes. and weeds. and ruins still in many places where splendid buildings had stood; but the business streets were being restored rapidly by the erection of rows of structures finer and more substantial than those that had been destroyed. Naturally. the first buildings to go up were houses Of commerce, and as regards these the charge cannot be made that Ieauty is being ignored. The public buildings will come later, and the thousands of families that moved to temporary homes in Oakland. Berkeley, and Oth- CT cities that may some day be includ- ed the Greater San Francisco. are re- turning gradually.-From The Pro- gressive Pacific Coast" by Henry T. Finck, in the February Scribner.

UTILITY OF THE BEAUTIFUL.

Mans use and function-and let him who will not grant me this fol- low me no further-is to be the wit ness of the glory of God, and to ad- vance that glory by his reasonable obedience and resultant happiness. Whatever enables us to fulfill this function is. in the pure and first sense of the word. useful to us. And yet people speak. in this working age. as if houses, and lands, and food, and raiment, were alone useful; and, as if sight, thought. admiration. were all profitless; so that men insolently call themselves utiitarians, who would turn. if they had their way. themselves and their race into vege- tables: men who think. as far as such can be said to think, that the meat is more than the life, and the raiment than the body; who look to the earth as stable, and to It's fruit as fodder; vine-dressers and husband men, who love the corn they grind and the grapes they crush. better than the gardens of the angels upon the slopes of Eden: hewers of wood and drawers of water, who think that the wood they hew and the water they draw, are better than the pine-forests that cover the mountains like the shadow of God, and than the great rivers that move like His eternity.
 And so comes upon us that woe of the preacher, that though God hath made everything beautiful in His time. also He hath set the world in their heart. so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end. This Nebuchadnezzar curse. that sends us to grass like oxen, seems to follow but too closely on the excess or con tinuance of national power and peace. In the perplexities of nations, in their struggle for existence-in their in fancy. their impotence, or even their disorganization-they have higher hopes and nObler passions. Out or the suffering comes the serious mind; out of the salvation. the grateful heart; out of the endurance, the Tor titude: out of the deliverance. the faith. Deep though the causes or thankfulness must be to every people at peace with others and at unity in itself there are causes of fear also fear greater than of sword and se- dition-that dependence on God may be forgotten. because the bread is given and the water is sure: that gratitude to Him may cease. because His constancy of protection has taken the semblance of a natural law; that heavenly hope may grow faint amid the full fruition of the world: thar selfishness may take place of unde- manded devotion. compassion be lost in vain- glory. and love in dissimula- ton; that enervation may succeed to strength. apathy to patience. and the noise of testing words and the foul ness of dark thoughts to the earnest purity of the girded loins and the burning lamp.
 Let us beware that our rest become not the rest of stones, which, so long as they are torrent-tossed and thun- derstricken. maintain their majesty, but, when the stream is silent and the storm passed. suffer the grass to cover them and the lichen to feed on them. and are plowed down into dust.-John Ruskin.

The cool night air blew in his face
with a pleasant tang Of winter. In

forward rapidly. Ahead rose the splIe
of the Church of the Sacred Heart. IL
was retired, setting back from the
street among tail shade trees. The

the shoulders, he went through the

he entered the church, he saw TO MS
light a small confessional. He slipped
in and shut the door. Through the
grating he could count 40 men seated
in the middle aisle. Before them, OF

IN the middle had a boyish, delicate
face. At sight of him the diplomat
gave start of surprise.
One man rose and spoke. others

with the black beard carried the

out of the confessional at their, heels.
They walked rapidly for several
blocks. A covered automobile was
awaiting them. They stepped in and
the machine glided away. With a
