BUFFALO BILLS
 BOSOM FRIEND
Major John M. Burke, Par ticipant in Stirring Events for Forty Years and the Chronicler of Them, in the City

Major John M Burke, representative and life long friend of Buffalo Bill who will be here with the Floto shows on April 2. arrived in the city yester- day. This is by no means the first visit of Major Burke to Arizona and he was identified with the territory for some time before he saw it for he bore it's name.
 In the rough frontier days he was associated with Colonel Cody, Wild Bill and others who made southern Kansas famous. A recently added member of the group was character they called Texas Jack, though he was not resident of Texas and had never been. He was an easterner, a mem Der of Mosbys Guerrillas and drifted west after the war. His name was Omahundro and he had a strain of Indian blood. His name was too long to pronounce in those times when men were busy and he was called Texas Jack Major Burke was known as Jack and one day Wild Bill speaking of him could not think of his last name, called him Arizona Jack. He bore that name throughout the frontier days all over the west. But later in the palmy days of Tombstone, when the Earps, Doc Middleton flourished, he was there.
 Major Burke had been a scout with Buffalo Bill since 1S67 He partici- pated in all the wars with the northern tribes and after the Custer massacre he was one of the three Indian peace commissioners who arrived at terms with the Sioux
 The major has seen some stirring times and he bears the mark of one of them. long disfiguring scar along the left side of his face and neck He has written muck of the events during that tumultuous period in which were in- volVed the leading officers of the army, the more famous scouts and the most warlike of the Indian chiefs
 Speaking of Doc Middleton, Major Burke said that he had died at Craw- ford Wyo soon after the major, Buff falo Bill, H. H. Tamman and SpOhr of the Essanay Company, had returned from the north where they had been taking moving pictures portraying the most thrilling events of the northern wars of the period about 1876. Mid dletOn died in jail where he was serv- ing a term for bootlegging. Middleton, said Major Burke became an outlaw by accident. He had killed a man in a barroom. That was not esteemed a serious crime in those days. He fled
  ate anger of the dead mans friends and made the mistake of jumping on the wrong horse. That was a crime in- deed; he was now horse thief. In his flight which now had to be permanent. he stole other horses. Among his many subsequent crimes was that of holding up the Deadwood coach, the one which figured in the Buffalo Bill show and which has been seen in thousands of towns in the United States and Europe.

 TRADE BODIES
Formation of Chamber of Commerce in Which All Boost Organizations Will Take Part Urged by the Board of Trade

"A suggestion has been made that Phoenix have a Chamber of Com merce", writes Harry Welch in a letter to the members of a Board of Trade committee "and that the institution should be built up from the several or ganizations now in existence.
 "A committee has been appointed from the Merchants and Manufacturers Association, from the Commercial Club and from the Rotary Club to CO., operate with the Board of Trade to further this object
 "The Board of Trade committee con- sists of w. s. Humbert. D. B. Heard. w. J. Murphy, H. K. Behn and B. E. Marks
 An early meeting will be called for the purpose of getting the committee organized Then later, meetings will be called at which all the representa- tives of the various city organizations will be present, and then the big plan will be laid. .e
 The necessity for a Chamber of Commerce. which will comprehend all the organizations now engaged in boost work for Phoenix has been under way for some years One of the features that has been most strongly urged is the building, to which Phoenix busi- ness man might take visitor for luncheon or for quarters.

strength for the arduous duties he had since been called upon to perform.
 If Mr Reid had remained here, he would be alive now, but the world would not have known what an admir- able character he was; an exponent of democracy who was an ornament in the course of Europe: an Ohio farmer boy who had risen to the highest eminence."
 Major Burke and Colonel Cody have been on the most intimate terms for more than forty years. They have fought side by side. Major Burke was connected with the Buffalo Bill show through it's long career on two con- tinents and though it ended in dark ness, the major said he was pleased to state that the affairs of Buffalo Bill were improving and he would yet be a wealthy man.
 The pleasures of Buffalo Bills life and mine," said Major Burke, "are that we are kindly remembered by the men of the army and the others with whom we were associated. I have here let ter from General H. T. Scott inviting us to a dinner with him at Fort Bliss next Sunday and we are also invited by Colonel Guilfoyle to be present at a review at Douglas"
 Though the majors activities have been of the past, he is abreast of the present and is the most advanced suf- fragiSt that has come through this re- zion. You can say?" said he that l am in favor of woman suffrage. I am in favor of allowing women two votes instead of one. I would dispense with the registration in the case of women and would require them when they come to the polls to cast their two votes to produce a certificate from the proper authorities showing that they are competent cooks"
 This liberality toward women struck the major while he was dining at Tue son the other day and was preceded by a tribute to the present and old time caterers of this country. Said he:
 'Delmonico and Gus Luchchow taught New York how to eat; Tony Faust taught St. Louis; Alfred Heimer taught Billings, Mont; John Chamberlain ant Harvey taught Washington and Ross has taught to Tucson" The major had not yet dined in Phoenix.

SNUFF.

It would be interesting to know how many old snuff boxes are sold in Manhattan in a years time. There are thousands of them, and the price of them aggregates hundreds of thou sands of dollars One of them sold yesterday for $50. and some of them are extremely pretty. Yet nobody ever uses them now for snuff. That ancient and unpleasant practice of snuff taking, which was once the mark of distinguished breeding, has happily disappeared in this part of the world so far as people in gen. eral are concerned. And yet there are still snuff users. The tobaccOnists will tell you that they still have GUS toners to whom they sell snuff regu- larly. Men who are not exactly old can remember men of the former generation who took snuff-some of them inordinately. But their sons found a way to use tobacco in a manner which on the whole is less objectionable. The only decent way to use tobacco is to smoke it. And sometimes-well, perhaps it is time to draw the veil-New York Mail

Tt does us old timers good,'' said Major Burke ito see what irrigation IS doing for these places which We knew only as deserts As our hair is depart ing we see q new green hair coming over the face of the country. Speaking of irrigation Colonel Cody has always been deeply interested in it. He built in Wyoming the first irrigation ditch under the Carey act. He did not make much out of it for most of the land under the state laws had to be sold to settlers at fixed price. But he was allowed to sell water for the lands at a price that could be agreed upon be- tween him and the settlers Bill thought $1O an acre would be a reasonable price. The government has found it necessary under the reclamation act to charge as much as $40 or $6O an acre. Bill wasn't money maker. He was an idealst.
 This is a magnificent climate you have here. WhitelaW Reid, who spent two winters here, often spoke to me about it. 1 first saw him in Paris and when he learned knew of Arizona, he told me of his residence here and said that he owed the restoration of his health to it. I met him later in Lon don when he was ambassador and he brought up the subject of Arizona again. The last time I saw him was at Press club banquet 1t Marquard's in New York when he had returned from London on official business. Again he talked of the Ar.zona climate which he said was the best in the world. He was indeed a grateful man. He said that the climate had given him

THE STORY OF HIS LIFE

Harold Goodwin, who is now a we'll known actor in vaudeville, began his working life as a clerk in the sewer department of the District of Co., lumbia government. Not long ago, a newspaper asked him for sketch of the various achievements that had adorned his career He wrote it out, and, in his desperate attempts to get a suitable title for it, remembered that his brother, Earl, was a news paper correspondent in Washington. This suggested to him an idea. He telegraphed to Earl:
 What would be a good title for the story of my life?''

UNGRATEFUL BRUTE

It was very hot day and pie Tie had been arranged for by the United Society of Lady Vegetarians.
 They were comfortably seated and were waiting for the kettle to boil when horrors of horrors, savage bull appeared on the scene.
 Immediately a wild rush was made for safety, while the raging creature pounded after one lady who. unfor- tunately, had a red parasoi. By great good fortune she nipped over the stile before it could reach her. Then, regaining her breath, she turned around.
 "Oh, you ungrateful creature!" she exclaimed Here have I been a vegetarian all my life. There's grat- itude for you!"-Philadelphi Public Ledger.
