The Spawn "a Fish.

Some fish deposit their eggs on stones,
brush, or aquatic plants, the ova adher-
ing by glutinous substance which sur
rounds them. Others, as the salmon
| family, excavate their nests on gravelly
| beds in running water, cover their
spawn, and leave it to the care of moth
er nature. Some, such as the stickle-
back, the sun-fsh, the black bass, and
others of the perch family, build nests
and stand guard over them. Others,
including some species of Silurd@,
known as catfish, have a parental care
for their young, and lead them about
as hen does her chickens.
The time occupied in Matching the
spawn of the salmon requires from 40
to over 200 days, according to the tenn
perature of the water while the spawn
of the shad in water at Is degrees
| matches in SO to 60 hours. The num-
Der of eggs produced by different spe-
cies vary as widely as the period of in
cubation. A salmon of 10 pounds only
gives 10000 to each pound of its weight;
while good-sized Goldfish gives 1,000,-
600. a herring 10000 to $4,000, and a
| fve-pound shad 100000. But small

mails. If all the eggs produced were
Matched, and the fry arrived at mature
age, seas, rivers and lakes would be so
full of fish that they could not be navi-
gated.
The SEQUEL TO CHEESE SToRY.-The
| old story of the famous Cheshire Cheese
presented through Elder John Leland
to President jefferson, is " going the
rounds of the papers" But that story
had a sequel which should not be omit
ted. When the elder was on his return
home, he stopped one night in New
York, and of course received the con-
gratulations of the Democracy of that
day.
BY way of joke, however, some one
suggested to the Elder that when that
cheese came to be cut there were skip
pers in it as big as rats"

Woman's Worst Enemy.

Of the worst enemies woman has ever had to
encounter, wine stands at the head. The APP
petite for strong drink in man has spoiled the
lives of more women-ruined more hopes for
them scattered more fortunes for them, brought
to them more shame, sorrow, and hardship
than any other evil that lives The country
numbers tens of thousands, nay, hundreds Of
thousands of women who are widows to-day,
and sit in hopeless weeds, because their hus-
bands have been slain by strong drink There
are hundreds of thousands of homes scattered
oyer the land, in which women live lives of
torture, going through all the changes of suf-
fering that lie between the extremes of fear
and despair because those whom they love,
love wine better than they do the woman they
have sworn to love. There are women by the
thousands who dread to hear at the door the
step that once thrilled them with pleasure, be
cause that step has learned to rec under the
influence Of this seductive poison. Tnere are
women gr0aning with pain while we write
these words, from bruises and brntaIitics ln-
hicted by husbands made mad by drink. There
can be no eXaggera;lOn III any statement made
in regard to this matter, because no human
Imagination can create anything worse than
the truth, and no pen is capable of pOrtraying
the truth. The sorrows and the horrors OF a
wife with a drunken husband, or mother with
a drunken son, are as near the realization oil
hell as can be reached in this world at least
The shame, the Indignation, the sorrow, the
sense of disgrace for herself and children, the
pOverty-and not unirequently the beggary-
the fear and the fact Of violence, the lingering
lifelong struggle and dispair of countless wO
men with drunken husbands, are enough tC
make all women curse wine, and engage unit
edy to oppose it everywhere as the worst enc
my Of their sex.-Er.

MARK TwAlN.-Donn Piatt who met Mark
Twain at dinner party in Washington City
the other day thus sketches the well known
humorist' This was my first meeting with
Mark Twain One would not pick Mark ont
from crowd as a humOrst indeed, one would
not venture to pick him out as literary char
acter at all. He looks more like member of
the Ohio Legislature (if you know what that
isl than anything else. That is, sort of a
man who had narrowly escaped being made
County Commissioner, and so was returned to
the Legislature. He is not only careless about
his clothes, but he is positively ignorant on the
subject, and labors under the impression that
the garment that hangs so loosely upon bis
shoulders is coat. From under his bushy
hair his face peers out, presenting a square,
well proportioned forehead, keen gray eyes,
and hooked nose, well developed mouth, ex-
hibting good deal of decision, and a chin
that rounds out, supporting the whole, in no
part of which you will find particle Of the
humOr for which he is distinguished His
face, on the contrary, is sad one, and when
all are in rOars about him he continues in a
state of dense solemnity. His voice is the
most extraordinary voice | ever heard. II is
a cross between Horace Greedy and Tim Lin
coln He drawls his words out in the most
preposterous manner, that gives a drollery
to what he says utterly beyond description.
Mark Twain name is Clemens.

THE BIBLE-There are sixty two books in
the Bible, written by forty different men.
Some were written by statesmen, some by
kings, some by shepherds, some by vinedress

physicians. The authors lived in different
countries, and wrote at different ages of the
world, there having been one thousand five

.f words anent the name Arizona" The name has been described as a Pima word; a Papago word; an Aztec word and a corruption of Arizuma, brought here by the earlier Spaniards. Now. why go so far afield? How about the names "Texico,' "Calexico," etc. etc. Why not go meandering around, hunting up silly meanings" for those names? The name Arizona was coined in the same manner as was ''Texico," etc. The Spanish for
 zone is "zona;" the Spanish for arid lis 'saride." The same as for the other names, for the sake of euphony
 the last two letters of the word "aride" are dropped, the same as the
 "as" in Texas. and the ''me" in Mex ico, thus mailing the word ''Texico;"< so it was done. with the word "aride.'
 the last two letters were dropped for the reasons above stated, and the
 first three 1etters-Ari-are joined to the word 'zona;" hence the name,

 Past and Present
BY A. F. BANTA

The first newspaper in Arizona was printed at Tubac; the press was a
 Washington and shipped from Phila- ldelphia, coming around the Horn to iGuaymas, Sonora, and thence over land to Tubac, Arizona. This was in 1859 and at that time Tubac was the Heading city" in the GadSden Pur- Ichase; Col. Charles n. Poston and
 Lieutenant Sylvestry Mowry were in- lterested in the venture; Col Cross
 was editor of the Arizonan, but it had
 a short life. The press and material
 became the property of Uncle" Bill lOury, and by him was moved to
 Tucson. The old press is now the
 property of the Arizona Historical society at Tucson an honorable 1 emeritus
 The second newspaper in Arizona was the Arizona Miner. It was owned by R. c. Mccormick; Tisdale E. Hand |, was the nominal editor and publisher This paper was first published at Fort Whipple, then at Chino Valley, land was issued monthly; the first paper being printed March 9th, 1864. The Tucson Citizen was the third pa per in Arizona; it was started by John Wasson, surveyor general, Oc- tober 15, 1870. John Wasson was the editor of the Citizen until it became the property of R. c. Brown and George w. Brown. However, prior to the ownership of the two Browns, John F.
