@ "Thosc young rogues are at it
again" lie exclaimed, wrathfly as
shouts OF merrment rang out the air.
They fairly drive me insane with their
noise. If Hiram was here I'd send him out
to them; but, of course, he must take this
time to have holiday. Gracious! what a

you're up in my pear trees, I'll set the dogs

hot and irritated, he went to the window
and looked out. In the garden belonging TO
the modest little cottage next door queer
sight could be seen. Five boys and four
girls, OF varying sizes, from c1riy-headed lit
tie Joe to fourteen-year-old Nellie, were try
ing to coax or drive stubborn old goat into
a shed.
Billy was obstinate, however. lie put his
torelegs firmly on the ground and kicked out
tehind with all his might, his face buried in
an old tin can.
Let's scare him in," Alex had suggested
with sudden burst of wise inspiration
wen all shout us loud as we can, and
frighten him till he runs"
Nine voices had accordingly shouted in
chorus, AMI 1t was this startling sound that
had reused the wrath of their nearest neigh
'bor, though it had made no impression on the
goat.

lie, in despair. "Horrid, stupid old thing! he's
been nothing but nuisance ever since you
got him, Alex"
He'll get his nose fast in that cam" Ned
said, laughing.
Alas! his words proved too true; for the
next moment Billy sent mckless Alex flying
and started off wildly, with his head fast
Pull it off," shouted Alex, rolling over in
the soft grass.

Look out, or he'll kick" cautioned Merry
while Nellie, Ben, jim Lulu. Sadie and little
Joe ran, screaming, in all directions, trying
to head him. off.
lie was caught at last. and after much diff
fculty, released from the can and led, a
most unwilling captive, into the shed 1t was
just in time, too; for Mr.. Whitby, who had
tcen watching in deep disgust, raped sharply
on the high board fence with his cane and
commanded sternly:
"Stop this racket, you young savages!
You're nothing less than public torments! !!
It's nothing but catter, clatter catter

The Nest Robber

In nook of our orchard an old apple tree,
All covered with blossom you cannot but see,
And peeping from ont of the branches so
green
A gay pair of chaffnches often are seen;
And what are they doing there? Eating the
leaves?
Or hunting for apples like naughty young
thieves!
Oh, no! but they've built there a snug little
nest,
And there lie their little ones calmly at rest;
And oh, that our Willie, our loved little boy,
The home Of these dear birds could wish -
destroy!
Oh, Willie! Your fate is sad one ] know;
But you really deserved Il; now, isn't 4 ~

 C of Tempe at the shoot at Mesa on
 Saturday. winning the event by score
 of 76S to 761. That was not very much
 but it was enough. The best individual
 score was that Of Sergeant John Null

 man was Private George Brown also
 of Company C. 133 Both teams had
 evidently improved since their meet on
 Washington's birthday. when Company
 C took the cup with score of 75O.

MAN OF HE HOUR

MAN OF THE HOUR-L. N Jesun- ofsky as section director of the wealth CT bureau in Arizona is over and above all others, during this season at least. the man of the hour. This valley want ed rain. and it was furnished. Snow in the hill country for later Irrigation water. was prayed for Mir. Jesunof- sky came through. Last week when discussing the pleasing amount of stored water now in the reservoir. il was casually mentioned that while there is now an ample supply of wa ter for the coming year. it would be quite desrab ble to have still more wa ter. just to show MT. Roosevelt that the big dam was built for utility and was not stuck clear up in the air for Orna- ment. Asked if there would be more rain before MT. Roosevelt arrived here, he said he did not like to make any predictions but would see what he could do Friday and Saturday he be- gan shaping the clouds up. Yesterday he devoted to trying out the empyrean headgates. and last evening at an early hour he turned on good run cf water. It came slowly and methodically, but it kept coming more or less all night. Whatever MT. .Jesunofsky may be next summer. he is the right sort of people just now.

TALLY ONE MORE

TALLY ONE MoRE-W-hoever is keeping track of the local population now that the census man has done his worst. is instructed herewith to tally up one more new citizen, Lee Moffitt of Champaign, ILL MT. Moffitt is a railroad man and has come here to make Phoenix his home if he finds things to suit him, and that means that he will stay. When he comes around to conviction on that point he will send back for his family. MT. Moffitt was being shown around town Satur- day by Jeff Duncan. who is sort of distant relative: that is. they were both born and brought up in the same house. though in different household. MT. Duncan had about seventeen ears the start of Mir Moffitt and by the time he had left the old place in Indi- diana MT. Moffitt's parents had got hold of it. and finding it had turned out such a good citizen as Duncan they kept it to raise their son in until he got big enough to wander over into llli- Rois and get married It has been thir- ty years since Duncan's and Moffitt's last previous meeting. but they knew each other nevertheless. MT Duncan has kept in the lead for almost life time. but Mir. Moffitt has caught up with him at last and both of them hope to iiv" here for at least forty years moro

SOU. MUSIC.

There's soothing melody and sweet In Nesper winds that gently blow; But he who spans their metric feet A spirit-melody must know. The murnuring brook hath tuneful
 tongue.
 There's music, too, in mountain
 streams: But he who hears the streamlets song Hath heard it's cadence in the dreams. The lullaby of peace and rest Is softly crOoned by summe- rain: But he whom thus the clouds have
 blest
 Hath listened to diviner strain. There's harmony in the circling
 spheres e8
 Which round the sun unceasing roll; This paean grand alone he hears Who hath true harmony of soul. old Oceans anthem. deep. sublime, Resounds in every surging sea. Who listens hears on shores of Time The beatings of Eternity. -Lovick P Winter. in the Independent.
