Irish Centerpieces.

Of all the different styles of em- broidery on centerpieces, doilies and lunch cloths, Irish embroidery is the most serviceable. It will stand twice the wear and tear that any other kind will endure, and after years of use will look as fresh and we'll as when 1t was new. The work is slightly pad ded and stands out from the linen, the padding often being done with tiny bits of raw cotton or else filled in with darning thread. Over this the embroidery is worked in the satin stitch, sometimes having the edge of the pattern done in the outline stitch, winch gives a little more firmness to the work Edges are either hemstitch- ed or finished with scallop that is button-holed over slight padding. Fringed edges are not serviceable and are no longer fashionable. A center piece and set of half a dozen doilies makes an ideal gift for the bride.

Appeal to Sloan To Stop Hayden
 Attack On laps

Phoenix, January 12-Armed men are enroute from Globe to Hayden to suppress a race war that has broken out there between Mexican and white laborers on one side and Japanese la borers on the other.
 A mob of fifty attacked dozen Japanese last night, took everything away they had and warned them to leave camp under penalty of death :.
 So far as known here none of the Japanese were hurt.
 Sheriff Frank Haynes, of Gila coun- ty, has been appealed to by the peace officers at Winkelman and he left for the scene of hostilities, at the head of an armed posse early this morning.
 Governor Sloan has been appealed to and states that if the officers are unable to handle the situation thar he will promptly call out the militia.

New ElYinQ Machine.

A Scotch inventor is building a fly ing machine weighing about six tons, designed to carry 20 or 30 passengers. It will cost about $25,O00. In shape it resembles a bird and embodies the rotary theory of flight. Each wing will be a large gyroscope, revolving horizontally, like inverted basins. It is claimed that the rotary wings will enable the machine to travel in any kind of weather and by it's own power raise itself vertically from the ground. Aviators and experts, however, ex- press considerable doubt as to the success of the machine, and question whether one weighing so much can lift itself from the ground or prove decided success in other ways.

Justices May Not
 Lose Their Jobs

Unless some action is taken by the new board of supervisors or by the superior court, it now appears that in the counties where justices of the peace were elected at the last cleo tion, that the old justices will hold their jobs.
 It will be remembered that some of the counties allowed the names of justices of the peace and constables to go on the official ballot. Other counties did not.
 Advices received from Phoenix state that in the official canvass at the cap itol building, no count is being made of the precinct ballots, since no cleo tion of precinct officers was called in Governor Sloan's proclamation. This being the case, it is claimed that the present precinct officers will remain in office unless they choose to resign.
 In that event the appointive power is believed to rest with the board of supervisors who may appoint whom soever they choose to hold office dur ing the unexpired term.

SOME RIGHT TO BE ANGRY

The maddest man on a Mount Yer non-New York car the other evening was polite man. There was the usual Sunday night crowd waiting on the curb for an opportunity to get to the subway at One Hundred and Sev- enty-seventh street, and only the lucky ones got seats. The aisle was filled with standees before the car started for New York.
 Only one man of sturdy build and foreign extraction was clumsily hold ing baby in his arms. Beside him was his wife, also straphanger The polite man observed them. thought 1t was tough luck to have to stand with chubby youngster in ones arms, all the way to the city, and offered his own seat to the tired couple.

HOId-Up Men Are
 Captured In Phoenix

Gibson was captured after a running fight, in the course of which he fired eight or nine shots at his pursuers. He was chased for more than mile by H. F.

Sea Captain Knew Only One Form of Ceremony and Did Ills Duty as
 He Saw 1t.

Some years ago slow sailing ves- sel, wheL some 600 miles out from Liverpool. picked up a Iusty young ster of five years lashed to mast
 The captain took great liking to him, called him his son and decided that the little chap must be christ ened-one of the few things which he know must be attended to in the case of children.
 Of course there was no chaplain aboard, so the captain himself under took the ceremony. He gathered the nen about him, and with mixed knowledge of his duties he glared about him and asked whether any one knew just cause why the boy should not be christened.
 'If there is," he roared, speak up like man or forever hold your tongue"
 Then he suddenly cracked bottle of wine above the boys head and christened him.

INVALID'S CHAIR IS USEFUL
View of Carrying 1t Up and Down Stairs-Lighter Than Others.

Most inValids' chairs are of a cumbersome type and when the oc- cupant is to be transported up and down stairs he and the chair must be carried separately. A New York man has designed a chair which is not only much lighter than the av- craze. but has appliances to assist in moving it up and down stairs. The front legs of this chair are equipped with castors and the short back legs are mounted on wheels. The back rises into two curved handles and a pair of supplemental handles are pivoted to the rear legs. Ordinarily these supplemental handles are fastened in vertical position, but when the invalid is to be taken from one floor to another they are let down in a horizontal position and held firm

END OF AN OLD SUPERSTITION
Height of Present New York Buildings Oiscourages Youngsters here to

Said New York octogenarian:

Said a New York octogenarian:
 The height of buildings in New York has dealt a death blow to an old superstition that animated many a country youth who came here to make his fortune 60 years ago. Heaven knows how they came by the belief, but most of those upstate boys came to the city thinking that if they could toss coin over house they took a fancy to at the first try, the house would be theirs some day.
 Tt was one of my surest convictions, and l put it to a test immediately aft CT paying for my first meal in New York The only money I had left was an old-fashioned three-cent piece. With that in my hand I walked around look ing for a desirable piece of property. Pretty soon corner lot on which stood a two-story-and-a -a-half brick house took my eye.
 T had practiced coin throwing in the country. so | let my three-cent piece go for all it was worth over the front of the house and ran around to the back to see where it landed. 1t went clean over knew then that that house and lot would be mine in due time, and sure enough they were Peo- pie don't woo fortune by Tipping coins these days, The fellow whose success depends upon tossing a three-cent piece over the Singer building would be in a pretty b:d fix"

WHAT PUZZLED THE NEWSBOY
of Trouble, but Motorman Could Have Told Him.

It was very busy hour on Forty second street. and the traffic 'cops" were having their hands extremely full, relates the New York Sun Just as things were starting along. after complicated blockade, little news boy dropped a quarter, and darted out into the street after it, under the nose of motorman who had just started his car.
 The indignant motorman threw on the brakes with a jerk. AS the car came to sudden stop an automo- bile directly behind it turned sharply to one side to avoid a collision. It skidded, the hood coming under the startled noses of a pair of dray hors- es. One of the front tires blew up with loud report
 This was too much for the horses. and they jumped forward together. In another minute the heavily loaded dray was careening down the side walk. the people scattering in terror. A lamp post was knocked over. and the dray, thrown violently in the oth- CT direction, upset, fiinging a couple of heavy boxes through a brilliantly lighted display window.
 The broken electric lights fzzed for a minute, then the fiimsy trim mings of the window caught fire, and ln a few minutes the changing of the Ire department was added to the up- roar. and the crowd extended for a. full block in either direction.
 When the fire was out, and the wreckage was being cleared away. the newsboy, with his quarter safe in his pocket, turned away and start ed down the street, murmuring to himself: Gee. I wonder what be- gun all dat fuss!"
