PULLMAN PORTER
RUNS AFOUL Of
RICH AND HALL

For about six years one Albert J.
porter on the Southern Pacific run be-
tween San Francisco and El Paso but
some Indians at Maricopa, this county,
claim that he is also during odd mo-
ments bootlegger. When his train
pulled into Maricopa on the night of
August first they claim that he sold
them two bottles of whiskey, and the
Wells-Fargo agent, employer of the
aforesaid Indians, claims that he had
three drunk Indians around the prem
ises soon afterwards. When Mr.. Pull
man Porter rolled into Maricopa on his
return trip last Thursday he was taken
from his train by Sheriff Halls deputy
at Maricopa, Walter Skidmore, and is
now awaiting trial at Florence. The
Indian department at Sacaton it is un-
derstood, will insist that the federal
authorities prosecute Norton under the
federal statutes.
County Attorney Richardson spent
Thursday at Maricopa where he made
an investigation of the case of one
Albert J. Norton, the Pullman porter
charged with selling whiskey to the In
dians and incidentally had sworn out
a complaint for one Cecelio Martinez on
the charge of wife abandonment. Mar
tinez resides upon the big Lewis ranch
near Maricopa, but became enamored
outfit, and skipped with her 10 Cali
fornia, leaving behind him, wife and
some eight or nine children. Deputy
Sheriff Skidmore will go to California
to try and induce Martinez to return.

CHARACTER MUST BE BUILT
Mans Best Qualities Seemingly Can
Only Be Brought Out by the Proc
,r,.., ess of Hammering.

The word character" is true to its
derivation. 1t is Greek word, which
we pronounce harass, which they pro-
nounce charass, but which had the
same meaning then as now. They
spoke then of coin in the mint, which
was hammered and tortured by the
sharp edges Of the die, as being
stamped upon, indeed, as a poor char
assed thing-as bearing a character.
It's character came to it because it
was beaten, pounded by this tremend-
GUS hammer. The more it was beaten
the more distinct character it had. I
believe all our words of similar import
have similar derivation. Thus, wheD.
we say that man is of this ''type" Of
manhood, or that "type" of manhood,
the original meaning Is that he has
been beaten into that shape by the
blows Of experience that have passed
over him.
Burns says 'the rank is but the
guinea stamp" This means, at bottom,
that "pound" is metal which has
been pounded. And there are metals
which improve in quality all the time
you stamp and hammer them. Just
the same is true of a man, If he have
the true heart, the true life and makes
himself master of the circumstances
instead Of the slave. And the
hammering is no unimportant part Of
the process.-Edward Everett Hale.

HOWDER ENLISTS IN u. S.
SERVICE FOR THIRD TIME
From the Waukegan (Ill.) News:

From the Waukegan Ill) News:
When ]. w. Howder, 2710 Zion
City, sees the Stars and Stripes he
has cause to feel he had a share in
making it the glorious emblem it is.
Yesterday Mr.. Howder donned the
uniform of Uncle Sam for the third
time during his long and useful life.
He is one of the 90 guards employed
at the Manufacturers Terminal
where he is guarding government
property.
When the civil war started he an
swered the call of Abraham Lincoln
for volunteers to defend the flag. He
also saw service during the Spanish
American war, at which time his son,
whose initials are the same, also en-
listed in the army. When Mr.. How
der learned the government needed
men to guard supplies at the Termi-
nal, following the recent fire, he en-
listed for the third time. The guards
are receiving their uniforms, and yes
terday Mr.. Howder donned his khaki,
decorated with the insignia of the
quartermaster's department.
His son has been in the army 20
years and has risen from a private to
major. At present he is at Fort Ri
ley, organizing brigade for overseas
service.

NOT INVENTOR OF CAMERA
Honor That Has Been Given by Many
to Distinguished Italian Seems to
Be undeserved.

Because in the year 1869 Glambat-
tista de la Porta, in his book on
natural magic" gives a description of
the camera Obscura the invention Of
that instrument is ascribed generally
to him. 1t is claimed for him that he
not only used lens but an inclined
mirror as well, thus anticipating by
hundreds Of years cameras Of a reflex
order. 1t is not, however, to be imag-
ined that his instrument was of the
portable kind. Rather was it a dark
chamber in which an image of the out
door-scene was thrown upon a whit
ened wall, through the medium Of a
small hole on the opposite side.
1t Is not at all unlikely that Porta
was simply the recorder of a phenom-
enon known to others than himself,
but not by them reduced to writing.
There was one distinguished individual,
at all events, who had observed the
same optical effect, thus anticipating
Porta by some years. 1t was about
the beginning of the sixteenth century
that Leonardo da Vinci said, eff you
will place yourself in an Theoretically
closed room facing building, land
scape, or any other object directly
lighted by the sun, and then cut hole
in the shutter, an image of the object
outside will be thrown upon any sur
face facing the hole, and it will be re-
versed Gnverted)."

Blind Persons Show Skill.

Blind persons, who have been born
blind, are, as Is well known, exceeding
ly clever with their fingers, but it is
not often one hears of a matchmaker
who was born blind, and yet there have
been instances of the kind. One IA
nous watchmaker's name was Rippin,
and, although completely blind, he
could take to pieces and put together
again watches of the most delicate
construction with the greatest ease
and in quicker time than most watch
makers who have the advantage of
good eyesight. On one occasion some
Of the tiny wheels and screws used in
his trade were stolen from him, but
the thief was captured with the prop
erty on his person, and Rippin identi-
fed 1t by his delicate sense of touch.
Another watch and clockmaker brought
up his blind son to his trade, and he
proved so skillful that on more than
one occasion he detected faults in time
pieces which other tradesmen had
failed to discover.

CONTINUED IN OUR NEXT
How Woman's Shrewdness Served "a
Save Her Life and incidentally
Enrich Literature.

No one knows who wrote 'The
Arabian Nights" but it is related that
"The Thousand and One Nights" as
they are often called, originated in
this manner: Schariar was sultan of
Persia and having no faith in women,
and having carte blanche to marry as
many wives as he chose, he had each
bride killed the day after he married
her. The vizier who did the executive
work on this program was filled with
horror at the atrocities he was obliged
to perform, the more so as he had a
beautiful daughter Of his own and
was in constant terror lest she find
FAVOR in the eyes Of the sultan. One
day his fears were realized and the
beautiful Scheherazade was a chosen
victim. She did not share her fathers
apprehension, however, having a
scheme Of her own for thwarting the
sultan's designs. The morning after
her marriage she began telling her
husband story, and just as he was
about to leave her for his affairs of
state, she brought the tale to that
Fascinating point where we generally
find that it is "to be continued" The
sultan decided to have her saved till
night that he might hear the end of
the story. This proceeding was re-
peated for thousand and one nights.
BY that time, Scheherazade had borne
him children and the sultan had de-
cided to abandon the cruel practice
OF killing his wives. "The Thousand
and One Nights" translated into
French In 1904 by Antoine Gallard,
was compiled from these fascinating
stories.

The Cost Of Life.

'eTo live is always to be hurt in
some way" said a young voice re-
Gently. 1t was the half-resentful, half
wondering voice Of one still new to
the experiences of existence. and ques-
tioning their justice.
The statement is true, and the more
fully alive one is, the more keenly
are the hurts felt. Every Joy brings
with it its possible price Of suffering.
Every love opens a door to sorrow,
every gift brings its weight of RESPONSE
bility; wider knowledge brings the
larger drain upon sympathy. The high
er one rises in the scale of being, the
greater becomes not only the capacity
for joy, but also the twin capacity for
suffering, but who would choose to be
clod to avoid feeling, a block of
marble to escape the pain of a living
soul?

Demand for Canned Milk Of Goats.

California has large ranch stocked
with Swiss and Nubian goats, the milk
from which is condensed and canned.
Goats milk is said to be very rich, and
Is in demand as nOurishing food for in
valids. A well-bred mich goat will pro-
duce IL times it's weight in milk. A
cow produces yearly three times her
weight If she is good mixer, but the
goat cannot be depended upon for a
steady supply of milk at all times
through the year. Therefore it is said
that canning is the best method Of
making goat dairy profitable. An H.
ounce can Of condensed goat milk re-
tails at 20 cents In the West, and the
sale has thus far been confined chiefly
to drug stores.-Pacif1c Daily Review.
