A Washington dispatch says: The number of pensioners on the pension roll in Arizona, July Il, was 8o7, and the total amount paid them is SI42,8o5.88 per an- mum. This averages SIo2.55 per year for each person. As the pension roll decreases by the death of the pensioners the amount paid out is held up by increases grant ed the more decrepit ones who survive. Thus the amount paid out is increasing rather than de- creasing each year.

Walt Mason; My cows gone dry, my hens won't lay, my horse has got the croup; the hot winds spoiled the budding hay, and l am in the soup. And while my life is sad and sore, and earthly joys are few, I'll write note to Theodore; he'll tell me what to do. l wasn't t home when fortune called, my feet had straved aiar; l fear that l am going bald, and have got catarrh. The wolf is bowling at my door, I've naught to smoke or chew; but l shall write to Theodore-he Il tell me what to do. My Sunday suit IS old and sere, Pm wearing last years lids; my aunt is coming for year, to visit with her kids. They will not trust me at the store and l am feeling blue, so shall write to Theodore-he'll tell me what to do. When we are weary and distraught, from worldly strife and care, and we're denied the balm we sought, and given black despair. ah. then. my friends. there is one chore devolves on me and you; we'll simply write to Theodore-he'll tell us what to do.

Punishment Swift and Certain

Coconino county court officials are to be commended and congrat- ulated on their expediency in rid ding tie country of a bad bunch of criminals. In every instance jus tice was meted out in hurry and in doses that were fully commen- surate with the viciousness of the crime committed. Of the nine in- dictments, eight were against Mex jeans. The two men who commit ted the dastardly murder at Belle- mont Wednesday morning were captured, made a confession, and were sentenced Monday morning to be hung five days after the crime. That IS exceptionally fast work, considering that the men made a good getaway, were captured down in New Mexico and brought back on Friday. The man who stabbed woman at Will liams Saturday evening, the l7th, was started on his way to the pen itentiary the Saturday following, under sentence of ten years. . The man who committed a burg lary at the Commercial hotel a few weeks ago was handed three year sentence, while the three men who committed assault and rob- bery, in the rear of the Weather ford hotel the forepart of August, were given sentences of five, eight and fifteen years, respectively. The forger went over the road for three years, and the man guilty of manslaughter for ten years. It is seldom such a tough bunch of criminals can be gwen their just deserts so quickly. Every man plead guilty of his own volition, and while that did not materially lessen the work of gathering evi- dence against them, it made it possible to settle matters swiftly and at the least possible expense. It is probable that by pleading guilty they hoped for leniency from the court, but the court evi- dently thought it proper time to administer a good lesson to these high-handed despoilers and they got about all the law would allow. They have ali been taken to the penitentiary at Florence.

Story By An Arizona Woman

Mrs. NJ. w. Lorraine, of Phoe- nix, the well known Arizona writer, appears to be making great strides in the literary world. In the October number of the West Coast Magazine, which has just been received, we read the first installment of a serial story from her pen.
 Judging from the first few chap ters, which appear in that number, we think that the story will cer- tainly prove fascinating, and con- siderably advance Mrs. Lorraine S literary fame. The story should be read with interest by all Ariz- ona people, because Mrs. Lorraine is an Arizona writer, and also be- cause the scene is laid in this state.
 It is called "Margot"; and has a strong plot, is full of interest and at times is tense with dramatic situations. There is plenty of local color in it, and the descrip- tions are very beautiful. This is indeed a notable addition to the literature of Arizona, and Mrs. Lorraine is to be congratulated on her efforts.
