Tombstone, Ariz., Jan. 24-Investiga-
tons here in regard to the missing
returns from TT Huachuca have de-
veloped that there is a ballot box stored
away in one Of the store rooms Of the

the box contains IS a mystery. The
box is sealed and bears the signatures
OF the election officers Of the Fit Hua-

turns that are wanted By the canvass

able TO guess whether the box contains
the missing returns or not All efforts

plan. Introducing seventy illustra-
tions. New York: G. p. Putnam s

The study of astronomy appears so
complex and difficult to the amateur that
such a volume as that now in hand is to
be welcomed as a practical guide. BY
means of this volume it is possible for
one to start the study Of the sky with an
inexpensive equipment. The reader is not
overwhelmed by complex computations,
and yet Is given enough OF the technique
of astronomy to permit a proper study. A
novel system Of night charts ana Key
maps forms a novel feature. permitting
the observer to become familiar with the
mental experiences of relating the lines
and symbols of the map to the OBJECTS OF
the uncharted sky.

paying secret visits to Paris for the last

Having made Capt Kettle well known
to great many people in terms of his
later life, Mr.. Hyne has now rendered a
real service by presenting him at an
earlier period as leading figure in an af-
fair of the heart which eliminated most
satisfactorily. Those who have already
met this dynamic little mariner will
greatly enjoy how he acquired a wife.
Those who have not had this privilege
and are meeting him for the first time
will be eager to know of his subsequent
adventures, already related. This tale
deals with two main episodes-how Capt.
