How It Was Accomplished by a Clover Fireman in Tombstone. Fiom tho Now Orleans Times-Democint. "This newspaper talk about the czar's disarmament scheme," said a western man, "icminds me of something that happened in Tombstone, Ariz., wh"n that place was the hottest hamlet on the whole frontier. There weie two factions In town at the time, and every body piedletod that a big pitched bat tle was liable to occur ut any moment. The bpllt grow out of an old quarrel between the cowboys and certain self constituted authoiities. and was com plicated by to many side Issues that nobody knew exactly what it was about. All that was pcifectly clepr was that two good-sized crowds wen zigzagging about town waiting for some tiltle to start the fracas Every member of both parties was armed to the teeth nnd afraid to lav aside his shooting lions for a moment lest he be taken at a disadvantage. In addi tion to the regulation brace of i'l-callber Colts, most of them can led 'tawed-oft' shotguns. These weapons were very popular in Arizona in the early days, nnd weie ordinary breech-loadeis with the barrels amputated some eight Inches above the locks, making Just about the ugliest machine that moital man ever gaved into. When loaded with half a pint or so of slugs it would kill everything in an acre lot except the gentleman directly behind the gun. Nobody ever thought of filing the things from the shoulder, but turned them loose at the hip, and the modish way ot cairying them was by a loop of clothes line tied at one end to the belt and at the other to a ring In the breech plate. Local eludes u?ecl to go about twilling them like monocles. Well, this aimed peace went along without anv special incident for over half a year, greatly to the disgust of oveiybodv. "You see. each side eairicd so much peioiial artillery and kept such a sharp lookout that none of them caied to tako chances on staitlng a low. That was the way things stood' w hen the file depaitment got ready to give its annual ball, which was the groat .social event of the year. The tire chief was a keen-witted Irishman, and he thought the situation over and called on both factions. 'Look here, boys,' he said in substance, 'you all want to come to tho ball, and you can't do it with them scatter-guns hanging to you. If you happened to kick one off waltzing you might massacre the whole orchestra, and they're the only musicians In the town. So why not let all hands ngiee to unload everything until further notice guns, pistols, knives and knuckles and Just turn In and have a good time? I'll take caie of the hard ware and give each fellow a check.' This interesting proposition was favor ably iccelved, and after considerable quibbling about details an agt cement was drawn up and everybody pulled off his weapons. Theie was a gnat sigh of relief, nnd the ball was the biggest success on record. The tiuth is Tombstone was sick of war, and to the best of my recollection the general disarmament continued for five or six months. It was bioken by a typical stieet duel, and then things got wild and woolly again. It is certainly a curious unwiltten page of frontier his tory." A LAUGH IN CHURCH. She tat on tho sliding cushion.
