A GOOD SCARE

Residents along East Seventh street were aroused from their deep slumbers about one o'clock Friday morning by the report of two revol- yer shots The shots originated un- der the careful supervision of cou- pie of young ladies who had been suddenly awakened by a supposed robber. After waking everybody in the house the next door neighbor was summoned who immediately came to the rescue with the deadly weapon. Evidently the expected hero was as much frightened though. as the other disturbed sleepers, for both shots went wild. The troublesome man did not seem to want to get away very bad though for he re mdined until the constable was call ed. in the same place where he had first been discovered. Upon closer investigation it became evident, how ever, that the man was too drunk to make his get away. He claimed to have received the booze in Tempe but that was as much IS could be gained by those desiring the informa- ton.

WIRE PULLING
pOlitical

There was considerable political wire pulling yesterday in Mesa. oW- ing to the caucus called for last night The trouble did not appear to be because of too many candidates for office, but because so many of those who were solicited to make the race for cOuncilmen felt that they did not have the time to accept an office in which there was no pay and many kicks. The job is a thank less one at best. and business men in particular fear to take office be- cause it is liable to create enemies and hence have a depressing effect
