Even the compositor down stairs fell all over himself in setting up that verse last week about the swan. We sent it down like this:
 Swan swam over the sea
 Swan swan back again.
 Well swan. swan.
 And it comes up from the conDosing room with a new second line injected like this.
 swim. swan. swim.
 Sounds like the compositor after reading the verse over had decided to put little money on the swan and was little anxious over the result. Any how. we're glad the compositor enjoyed himself.
 If local sport promoters think, as they seem to, that they can lay out a respectable gridiron out on the grounds at Eastlake Park, they had better guess again. We are dying for the sight of a good football game and hate to see the chances spoiled. If we have a chance to get a couple of good teams here let's make it worthwhile. WHY JEDGEl. HAVE A HEART

ON A SUNDAY MORNING

Beats an,'' I said as I Topped into a chair and put my feet up on B. Spears desk, ''how I make a miserable failure of writing stories out of what I consider the best opportunities come across
 .'YcS' agreed the mg. ed. "I've ex- perienced the same difficulty myself Did I ever tell you what dismal failure I made of writing up what l considered, and still consider, the fun niest thing I ever saw happen in Phoenix?"
 NO. let's have it.''
 .swen, it happened on a Sunday morning few years ago" (Of course. when MT. Spear says "a few years ago" what he really means is 20 or p years ago. as you will see.) T was coming down Adams street near Central. The streets, of course, were not paved at that time, and there was an irrigation ditch running along the south side of Adams street. Now, I happened to see this entire thing happen.
 'Across the street from me, where the Heard real estate office now is. noticed two men whom I took to be miners in town over the week end. Both wore what you would call Sun- day clothes. Both black suits. with the typical square cut to them, and each wore the black felt hat. Plainly they were just in town visiting.
 Then I saw a dilapidated rig coming down Adams street, driven by an old Mexican. Trotting along under the rear wheels of the rig was one of these Mexican bitten cur dogs Ap- parently the dog was oblivious to everything but his business of keep ing apace with the wagon above him. But just as the whole outfit got to point opposite to where the two miners were ambling aimlessly along. with the miners being aware of the passing Mexican and his dog. the dog stopped short, turned and made a bee line to- ward the two miners.
 That dog .Ieaped the ditch. and with out a murmur, and without the miners aware that the dog was within a thou sand miles. he just (and here convul- sons of laughter overcame the speak er) grabbed one of the miners by the seat of the trousers. There was a quick twist of the dogs head and he disengaged himself with large piece of cloth in his mouth. Without fur ther attempt to do harm. he spit the piece of cloth on the ground, turned abruptly and ran after the rig, which had moved on, and took his place again under it. The old Mexican didn't know his dog had left his station
 What did the miners do2 Well, it all happened so suddenly. so uneX- pectedly and it was ali over so quickly that both of them simply stood still, their mouths open with amazement By the time they recovered their speech the dog was ambling along again under the cart. I couldn't hear what was being said between them, but one evidently was taking inventory and describing to the victim the extent of the rent. Presently both turned and hurried down the street, the victim dropping one shoulder way over in an unsuccessful effort to cover up
 And don't you know that while l considered it the funniest thing I had ever seen. when I came down to the office and wrote it up I produced something very funereal.'
