Ovft GiiEAT Speech. In response to
a petition signed by many ' eminent
citizeiisi !of tlie town, his honor the
m-;iW 'who is onrself) called a nublic
meetini? last Fridav evening to discuss
theWbj-ct of voting aid to the pro-!
jected Tucson and Salt Lake raijhiad. I,
Th4 coiirt house was crowded to suffi-
catmnilifs thev sav in Boston. The!
edior of our esteeined conif mpdrary f
not oiily had the giill'to attend the
meeting but the unheard of brass to
arrange to be called on for a speech.
Tli0 callers were half breed Joe Brown
ami thai;bld loafer known asLazvjJun,
and bothj v ere paid to shout, of course.
t is iiee:tl!Ies to .arid that our esteemed
made an ass or nimseir. lie wubii i
wo minutes in satisfying the crowd
that !he ; ha never traveled twenty
miles over a railroad, even on a destd-
head pass. At the emlf five minutes
le was le t "oil the plattorm and steered
low n striirs.
Vociferous cheer-1, as they say in
Philadelphia, 3iiddenly burst forth
fr..m ;. p.rts of the rom. 'Thev
.v ie chters for us. -Next' instant
him Ireds of voices were c dling for.
he editor of the greatest wet-kfy pn-r
in
America and the most lo uiar
m .yor in all -Arizona: We would not
lave been human, as they hay in Chi-
ago. Had we not leit tiaiu red. ! v e
lesit -ted, as isiisuatotl such oceasions,
did the calls merged into one iJong
ontnii ed recognition. 'of 'our public
topnlarity. A t length, with a mode-t
lenieisnojr befitting the loc. i.s ch as
they Say;in St. Louis we advanced to
the front. Theeheera I'loker.ut afresh,
ud we cannot caiiCt-;:! the fact that
at that itioinent we were the proudest
man ; in Ameiica. Our esteeined con
teniT)ora"v was down in the middle
of the street and listening, and when
round 'after round of wihi upplausel;
reap net 1 ins ears, and ne reaiizeii our
popularity, he wandered forth into the:
night a erushed broken critter. j
fl he. thstant we began speaking that
ast multitude w..s hushed to profound
silence, as they say in Cincinnati.! Wei
start td our data with the first railroad
built in America, nd gradually
brought it down to date. We proved
beyond q uesfion, as they say in Buffalo,
that the railroad wa the civilizer of
the world. We declared that every
line of railroad built in Europe l ad
averted ii war, and the "applause was
deafening. We spoke id this strain
for a quarter of an hour, hurling solid
faits and figuries at our intelligent
auiLliei(e with' startling vigor fuid
u nim jwaeh able accuracy, as they say
Orhahaj, Ian I then we changed to fervid
eloquence. The effect was electrieal,
asjtheyj say in Detroit. 'WViippealed
to the a i-licnce as pioneers, sons of
toil, centlenien. scholars and states
men.! In imagination we Jjronght a
railroad linto town and sketched the
benefits' it wrought with" pen of lurid
flirae, as ?thoy s-ay in Washington.
Ti e rairoad brought wealth,' ctiltufe
refinement-' boiled shirts, factories',
elrhrcbes, schools" and other ble-ssyigs.
It drove out t ha bad man, jugged' the
loafer, put away the gun and trans
formed jour 'one story shanties into
stately business .blocks of stone and
in n. ; l " " r I V .
We closed with a peroration which
left us vfet to the liide and as - limp aS
a rog, but it caught the assemblage;
Whenjqurv'olce died away eveyj tnah
rose to his feet with a. war whoop of
admiration, and the mighty reverbera
tions of that Niagarabt popular repec
mid tribute, as they say hi Cleveland,
thundered forth into the night: and
reached I the ears bl our broken and
humbled cstiemt d contemporary; as he
Ueaned jon ihe fence of our piiivatb
gfiiVeyajrtl and kicked himself because
he had ttuver shot a inrui.
jit was a great night, for this town
h i forlus. The. people will not only
votea;bonus ot 30000 to the railroad,
but wtf will have a second term ais
tnayorj by a .still larger majority,; and
the sbfieriptioir list jjf the Kt'ckh- will
grow !apace. We know that 'we are

He'd lieen with ns at BtrawWry

preacher was down at Tomahawk

death of him. Preacher had gone the
day before, and the elder came back
all broke up and out of sorts. A miner
named Dan Peppers flung out some
thing mean, and the elder lost control
of himself and hit him with a pickax
.handle and killed him nil the spot.
There wasn't any xUe'd of a triil. A

"Pni guilty, ot course, and tliar's ho

''I'll do my purtiest, elder, and now
you'd better prepare for your journey.
You're going oyer the great divide,
and you'll never return."
At exactly 2 o'clock the" elder was
slanding on the head of a pork barrel
under a tree while a rope was made

"Elder," said the judge, after seeing
everything in order, ""the boys are ex

"What are they for?" asked the
reporter.
"People buy them to feed -to their
singing-birds. I sell them rehiil to
the dealers, who tell nte they are espe
cially good for some birds at. any
time, and for others at ce tain times
of the year."
"1 should say so they would prove
pretty expensive diet. Just think of
the timeand labor spent in 'catching
so many flies!"
"You f irget, young nan, that a
Mexican Indian is not a Kuiglit of La
bor. His tdue is about as valuable as
that of a netting ben. Flies are
thicker, too, in thj tropical valleys of
Mexico than you h ive any idea of
something like mosrpiitoes iu a New
Jersey swamp, or shall we say as thick
as blanks in a Jolterv?"
"Well," contiued'the speaker, "the
Mexican Indian who can no longer
sleep iu his hut on account of the
swarms of .flies attracted by the filth
which accumulates about his front
door, sometimes is slung into a desire
for revenge on his enemies. Uevenge
is sweet, and sweeier if there is any
money in it. He goes to the wools
and Collects a number of green twigs
of a certain tree. These he lays in a
pile on the fl"or of his hut, with some
dry twigs under them. Then from
another tree he gets a gum, which he
hoi Is i'lto a thin syrup and spreads on
the walls of his hut. The flies are at
tracted by its fragrant an 1 f r retching
odor. They gather to teed on it.
When the hut is bh.ck with them the
Indian sets tire to the twigs -on the
floor and closes the apertures from the
outside. The twis unit an aromic
snioke which kills the flies, and they
Fall to the floor in thousands. Then
the native's wife dries them while he
goes to sleep ag;dn."
"Here's a find for you," continued
the merchant, as he siughil out a big
ger fly than '.usual. "This is a peei
nien of the man-eating fly of Central'
America. This is a fly which inhabits
the lojv-lying toast regions of Central
America, ami is much dreaded by the
natives for the fearful results -which
follow its sting. Naturalists call it
LucHfa Hominivora. The average spe
cimen is about a third of an inch long.
It has a big head, a-'you "'sec, with the
eyes on top. Its cheeks are a golden
yellow, .its abdomen dark blue with
p irple bands, its ley "bhek, its wings
i unusually big, and they produce a eon
1 tinuo-us and loud Iu zing when in mo
tion. - '- '
The person bitten by this fly gets a
disease called myiasis. It generally be
gins with an itching" of the hose, then
that organ swells and bleeds, next it
becomes ulcerated and in lh6se ulcers
may be found the lavae of the fly.
The whole face becomes swollen, ery
sipelas sets in, followed by meningitis
and death. One man, I knew, shot
himself after he had been bitten, rather
than face the tnti.r s he knew were
certain. Cure is ditlicult. Subcutan

times do good, but as of ten fail. One
