street. the hedge surrounding the home of Charles Kiesselbach in Grand | avenue received a trimming last night Charley, who dotes on flowers, ! chickens and everything, recently sur 1 rounded the garden of his home with ! hedge of potted plants. This morn 1 ! ing when he battered out in his house slippers to view the lawn previous to | partaking of a plaster of ham and" | he discovered that enthusiastic botan- | fists had removed 13 potted plants | from the hedge.

 Burglars Become Aesthetic
 UCSON-Aesthetic temperaments are being demonstrated continually by house burglars operating in Tucson, the latest illustration being the taking l of 65 photograph records from the home of c. Flores house. 20 Southern l Pacific grounds, Sunday evening. The robbery, according to police, may have been committed by the same burglar l who last week took from Sixth ave- nue drug store, 20 bottles of perfume.
 As in the former case the thief dem- ! onstrated practical as well as aesthetic
 ideas, taking along with the records
 $500 in cash, s250 in silver and $50 in
 gold.
 Neighbors of Flores saw two Mex
 jeans about the residence early in the
 evening, who are susrscted of the
 crime and whose names are in the pos-
 session of the police.-Citizen.
 Bisbee Gets Shock
 BISBEE-Signs of a damp spring
 and summer are seen by Miguel Angel
 Rico. consul for Mexico at Naco, who
 announced yesterday that the pass
 port wise fee for residents of border
 town who wish to enter Mexico has
 been removed altogether.
 Hold on a minutel Cars leave for
 Naco at all hours of the day! Bisbee
 is not considered to be a border town
 although Naco, Douglas and Nogales
 are. Residents of Bisbee will be
 forced to pay the $10 fee for perma-
 nent passport, or $2 for temporary, as heretofore, but-by using the prop
 CT discretion in estimating the distance ones home is from the border, as for
 instance. by assuming that Osborn is
 the nearest main rail line address (which it is) it is possible that a resi-
 dent of the Mule mountain district
 can assume the distinction of being
 a border resident.-Review.
 Hunter Attempts Suicide GLOBE-H. G. Manchester, a Globe
 painting contractor, was taken to a
 local hospital yesterday afternoon in what was said to have been a critical condition after having taken a dose

 from this city.
 An inquiry at the hospital last night , was answered by the statement that
 he was getting along nicely.
 Physicians stated last night that per manganate of potash was not as dead ly as some poisons, the effect depend , ing on the size of the dose. It is learned that the dose was taken fin , the crystal state, which makes it more ffective.-Arizona Record.
