THE ARIZONA KICKER.
The Editorial Hardens Which a Onlua of
the Preas Una to Hear Gracefully.
We extract the following Items from the
last Issue of The Arizona Kicker:
They Will K.vow More. A combina
tion, calling itself tho Acme Opera company
of Chicago, gave a show of some sort at
Reynold's hall last Friday night. No free
tickets were sent to this oillce, and when wo
ent our half breed roller boy over to tho
manager with a noto asking him why in
Texas he had neglected such an important
duty, ho returned won! that The Kicker
could kick and bo hanged to it. Wo thero
foro kicked. Wo hired Cooper's hall for the
nuuo night, gave a free dance, and tho Acme
Upera company opened to an audience com
posed of tlie landlord's cross eyed boy and
two old half breeds who thought homebody
was going to bo scalped.
There's nothing mean about us. We sim
ply want what is due to the profession, nnd
what has been granted it from time imme
morial. When an uiuus-einent combination
bets out to ignore us and make us sing small,
somebody will certainly hear something drop
berore getting to the top of tho hilL
Not Saving a Worm. Many of our sub
scribors are asking w hy The Kicker has noth
ing to say in tavor of either of tho local tick
ets now in the Held. Thero are two reasons.
First, beeaus.0 we wero not nominated on
either ticket, ami, soundly, becauso a bigger
gang of rascals were never up lor otllce. Wo
wanted to run for mayor. It is no umj being
over modest ubout such things. Wo are bet
ter titted for tho oition than any other man
in town. Tho ollleu should novo been glad to
seek us. It didn't do so, und to we sought it.
Woshould havo lllleil tho osition with crodit
to all, but tho gangs wanted a tool, and so
they nominated Doc llurrous and Hank
Jones to head tho two tickets. Neither of
these men will ever serve. Within onu month
we will havo both of them back nt Joliet to
serve out their unexpired sentences.
Wo havo been warned that wo must come
out and support emu ticket or the other, or go
to tho wall. Begin your wall business, gen
tlemen, as soon as you please. When you
down us you havo got to lieat a grand aggre
gation of newspaper, grocery, feed store,
harness shop, butcher shop and knitting fac
tory, all under one roof, presided over by one
head, and each doing a line business.
Not Just Ykt. Tho Tom Cat Silver
.Mining company sent us n certilleate of stock
of tho face value of S.VW last week and asked
us to editorially mention the fac that the
mine would prove one of the greatest bonan
zas of the age tor investors. We can't con
wientiously do it yet. We want to wait
awhile and see whether wo nro to be assessed
on the stock or not, ami we'd like to hear of
somoonewho has received a dividend. We

came along, and pull' up their old swindles
without stint, but wo havu made a change of
base in this i-ojieet Wo found that a com
pany which would boat tho public would also
beat us.
They Took Kxckption. Tall Hill, of the
Gem Saloon, Ohio George, of tho Arcade
Poker Rooms, and Ixively Jim, of tho lied
Front Sink of Iniquity, tool: exception to our
kindly i einnrk in lust week's issue that whisky
and poker were trying to run tho town, nnd
they laid for us accordingly. On Friday af
ternoon we were examining tho curcass of a
big jackass rabbit killed over in the gulch by
Sam Andrews, and on exhibition in front of
Davises' butcher shop, when tho three worth
ies ubove nnmed approached and signified
their intention of cooking our goose. Wo
had them covered by our gun in flvo seconds,
and we held them in line with hands up for
full five minutes as an exhibition. When
they had been disarmed we allowed them to
sneak away.
We don't claim to own this town, nnd wo
never bet out to run it, but we propose to
talk in plain English on all subjects and
guard the public interests to tho best of our
ability. If tho three parties named do not
subside ut once, we shall encourage n crowd
to turn out with n rope some frosty evening
and pull their heads chock up against a limb.

"Stop hlinl Stop him! He's a tnurdcrerl"
Such a frantic cry as this naturally raised
an excitement on the borderof Chinatown,
San Franclco, where it wits heard tho
other day. And the sight presented was
even more startling an agile, long legged
young man dashing toward the darkest
corner of Chinatown with an old man hi
pursuit, yelling as if he would raise tho
city.
Of course, scores of men joined in the
pursuit, and at
length two police
men caught tho
fugitive in tho
rear of n restau
rant, through
which he had run.
The old man came
up, and between

never can find 'em when you want 'em,
nnd so I tried to arrest him myself," He
then related this strange story:
He gave his name its Patrick Spain, late
sergeant of Troop L. Fifth United States
cavalry, hut retired lately by reason of his
age. In the spring of ItSSX) I'eter Schneider
was a privato in that company nnd Al
Candy was the blacksmith. One night the
men had some linuur In a ravine near Fort
Sill, 1. T., where they were located, and in
his jovial way Candy perpetrated some tri
fling joke on Schneider. The latter drew a
murderous knife, wounded one man badly
nnd literally cut in two the heart of the un
fortunate Candy. Realizing the enormity
of his crime Schneider mounted his horse
and escaped into the wilderness, nor could
all the diligence of the military llnd him.
A few weeks ago the old sergeant en
countered liijn i" Los Angeles, but he es
caped. This time the sergeant, determined
to have him and lie did. Schneider admits
everything and tells n strange story of his
wanderings, but claims that Candy was
aiming at him with nu iron bar when
killed. He was delivered to the military
authorities to be taken to Fort Sill.

bullet in his groin which will retire him
for several weeks if it does not end his
earthly career.
It is a queer story. For some time these

The Itlooil Stumped Path of Iro;rea.
Wlieneer mini attempt to improve on
nature, nature nearly always demands nu
appeasing sacrifice of human life. Hardly
a great building has gone up, a huge
bridge spanned a river or a Hue of trans
portation completed where the cement has
not been mixed with human blood. A
cable railway is lieing laid on Hroadway,
New i ork, and the section bosses are hav
ing a good deal of trouble in keeping peo
ple away from the-Inclosure along the
line, iuirly the other afternoon a man
was standing leaning over the inclosure
watching the men at work between Hector
street nnd Exchange place. Ho hud been
told several times to get away, that the
cars coming along might run over him,
but he wits buund to stay right where he
was. In a few minutes n Hroadway car
came along. He tried to cross the track,
but just as he turned around the car was
upon him. He was caught between the
inclosure and the inside of the car and
fearfully crushed. The boards bad to be
torn oil so he could be released.
He was taken Into UT Hroadway and
placed on a lounge in nn unconscious state.
In nbout tea minute he regained suf
ficient consciousness to tell the officers that

He was badly bruised about the abdo

Beach hotel at Coney Island, and if she
nnd her brother tell tho truth she wns In

I 1V.
M.M1KL STKKI.1N0.
After traveling us a star for four years
and then as elocutionist and vocalist, her
health gave way and she went down to
Manhattan beach to recuperate. Several
gentlemen iumiired about her at the otllce.
i some few left their cards and one she met
, and talked with in the ladies' parlor.
Finally her brother, George F. Flack, called
and went directly to her room, nnd as near
ns can bo determined this precipitated the
trouble.
Shu and her brother declare that Clerk
Lclaud entered the room in a rude and in
solent manner and peremptorily ordered
her to lenvo the house at once. There was
n painful scene. The lady was overconio
with shame ami confusion, and other
guests of the house got a little excited.
The managers were appealed to and grant
ed Miss Sterling permission to remain.
Nevertheless they stand by theclerk in tho
suit. She makes the complaint of slander,
etc., anil puts the damages at $30,000.
A Fortune Itejond Iter Heiteh.
Many are the strange conditions set down
In wills by eccentric testators. It is be
cause she cannot comply with certain re
quisites that .Mrs. Laura Fulton, aged
thirty, of Atchison, Kan., is unable to grasp
n fortune. She is separated from Mr. John
C. Fulton, who is her second husband. She
wns first married to Horace H. HaiTcmlcu,
who died eight years ago. Ho had a
wealthy uncle named John A. Watson, a
bachelor, who resided in Loudon. This
uncle who was nearly eighty years old,
died in January, 1SST, leaving his nephew's
widow tr,000 in cask and 10,000 In pro
duct ivo real estate. Under one of tho con
ditions of the will, however, she has as
yet been unable to get the inheritance.
This condition is that she shall be married
to nu honorable man and live with him at
least one year. In case of failure to carry
out this part of the will within seven years
after the death of the testator the property
goes to Trinity church, London.
The marriage of Mrs. HalTemlen and Mr.
Fulton occurred about a year after the
death of Watson, lut they lived together
only a few mouths. In order to obtain
possession of the little fort line Mrs. Ful
ton will have to get a divorce from her
present husband and then marry somu
other man and live with him according to
the provisions of her uncle's will. Mrs.
Fulton's attorney has a certified copy of
Watson's will. He says that she can come
into full control of her portion of the es
tate in less than three months after the
conditions have been complied with.
A Shock Tor the Ilnlnter.
The detective is made the subject of all
sorts of stories heroic, romantic, despic
able and ludicious. A ueutlemau wrltliii
! to a Loudon paper says that as he entered
a railway carnage the other day lie recog
nized in the compartment a well known
detective. Presently a minister got In,
und, with the three locked in by the guard,
tho train started. The detectivu was in
pursuit of a criminal who had gone by a
previous train. Ho began to study tho
photograph of the fugitive and, of course,
was soon absorbed in it. This attracted
the attention of the minister, who present
ly observed, "You have, perchance, lost n
dear frieniD" "Dearf yes, very dear, in
deed," answered the detective. "Take
comfort, brother, he has but gone before,"
continued thu minister, who was not a
little shocked when he got for a reply:
"Yes, hang him, and got three hours' start
of me. Hut I'll follow him, if it's to Jeru
salem." "Why Don't You Advertlne?"
"Shurp practice" is a thing which the
courts of England seem to hold in great
disfavor. Some time ago a Captain Kit-
I toe, of London, was offered i."J00 by Miss
J Drew if he would find u Mr. Ewing, whom
she had lost sight of ami wanted to marry.
He advertised and got news immediately,
I but Miss Drew refused to pay and he sued.
The court decided that au honest man
would have simply said, "Why don't you
advertise?" And inasmuch as he failed to
give this simple suggestion he was guilty
of imposition.
