No CoMPLAINT.-He was a singularly
grave man, even for sexton. For nearly
half century he had been public func-
tionary-had performed the conspicuous
duties of sexton-yet no one had ever
seen him smile. Occasionally he joked,
but he did it in such a funeral manner
that no one could accuse him of levity.
One day he was standing on the church
steps wiping his melancholy features with
red bandana. A hearse stood near, aud
three or four carriages were drawn up be-
hind it, The notes of the organ foated
out of the open windows with solemn eff
feet. A stranger came along and said:
Funeral" is
And the old sexton gravely bowed his
head-it was.
"Who's dead9"
The old man again wiped his brow and
gave the name of the deceased.
"What complaint" asked the inquisi-
tive stranger.
Solemnly placing his bandana in his
hat and covering his bald head, the old
sexton made answer:
"There is no complaint; everybody is
entirely satisfied. - Worcester Press.

MEET Me IN HEAvEN.--One of the
most affecting incidents of the Pittsburg
riot was that in connection with the death
of little boy. He was shot in the abdo-
men and was carried into saloon near by.
A physician was summoned, while the little
sufferer lay upon piece of oil-cloth
spread upon the floor. The life-blood
was ebbing from him and covering the
cloth with gore, but he was conscious and
able to talk little at intervals. He kept
calling for "water, water" and eagerly
drank the precious liquid handed him.
Just after one of his paroxysms Of pain
he seemed to become conscious of the
fact that things earthly would soon fade
from his view. He was boy of more
than ordinary intelligence, and as the
fact of his approaching dissolution be-
came impressed upon him, he asked that
his mother be called. They told him
that she had been sent for but might moi
reach him in time. "Then,' said he, iii

Patriotic Russian Women.

Throughout Russia the war.feeling is
exceedingly strong. The Russian women,
especially, display warm interest in the
welfare Of the army. "Two days ago"
writes the St. Petersburg correspondent
of the Manchester Examiner, "at the in.
yitation of Baroness Radinah, spent an
hour in going over the building near Fort
Nichols in which the Red Cross Society
is installed, and anything so perfect in its
arrangements can scarcely be imagined.
Every conceivable thing that human in.
penuity could suggest or invent Is there
ready to be forwarded for the use and
comfort of the sick and wounded sol.
diers. As passed through the rooms ]
could not help expressing to Madame Ra.
dinah my astonishment at the number of
beautiful women | saw around me, all
wearing the regulation pinafore, with a
red cross on their breast. But the Baron
ess told me that one was Madame Narisch-
kina, nee Princess Kourakiua; another
the Countess Schouvaloff, and all ladies
of rank and fortune-all working as if
their daily bread depended upon their
eXertl0nS. III every uou'o ihnhSiou, III
every cottage in Russia, this work is 60
ing on all day long. The men are fight
ing for the Cross, the women are silently
working for those who fall in its defense.
1t is national war, and the sentiment is
the same in the breast of the Princess as
of the peasant. From what | have seen
believe there is not lady in Russia who
would not cheerfully place every jewel
she possesses--and ladies here are rich in
iewels-to be disposed Of for the cause
in which her country has taken up arms.
If those who talk so loudly of "British in
terests," could see, as have seen, the de-
votedness of this people to the object for
which war is being waged, I believe they
would feel ashamed of the policy which
puts imagined self-interests before the
calls of humanity, and would leave some
millions of fellow Christians to toll on
under barbarous yoke because of some
fancied detriment that may ensue in
years to come"

Plan for Paying the Army.

WASHINGTON, May 14-The Secre- tary of War has received from Drexel, Morgan & Co, of New York, a propo- sition 10 furnish sufficient means at , to 6 per cent interest per annum, to pay the Army from the 1st of July un- til the Army Appropriation bill is pass ed, but the Secretary has declined the offer, on the ground that he can not enter into such a contract with out direct violation of the law. He, however, favOrs the plan to so advance pay to officers of the Army, but deSIres it understood that the War Department can have nothing to do with the trans action, which must be purely a private matter between the officers and the firm. He expresses his willingness to do all in his power to aid such an ar rangement, provided he can do so with out violating the law, and has referred the question 10 the AttOrney-General for an opinion as to what extent he can take part in the transaction.

 CALABAsAs, ARIZONA, May 6.
 The recent discoveries near here, in the Santa Rita Mountains, have pro- duced an intense excitement, and scores of people push through here daily on their way to the scene of action. Min ing men from all parts of the Pacific Coast are to be found on the road, all bound for the new district, which will be known as the Aztec District. This being a sort of branching-off place, people from the north CTucson and ab0ve) and those from the south (Sono- "a and below) come together here and strike of to the eastward along the Sonoita 10 the mountains.
 The greatest mime of all is the Az tee, without question, and work will at once be commenced and vigorously prosecuted. The ore assays from $900 far up into the thousands; the vein is wide and strong and as plainly traced as turnpike road. Everything IS favorable to cheap mining in the Az tee District; plenty Ot ores, wood and water in aboundance; a fine grazing and agricultural county around it, in surfing cheap food, hay, etc.
 The certainty of railroad through this section causes leveI-headed men to take hold early, and the fact that the mines of the southern and south eastern portion of the Territory are of the most permanent order, insures wonderful results here at an early day.
 There are parties now en route to the district who own mill porperly in Cal ifornia and Nevada, which is unpro- ductive, and which could be placed here within 60 days, and it is certain no time will be lost in producing bull lion for your market. X great deal of gold is carried Tn most of these ores, and streaks of gold are frequently met, though the veins are smaller than these, where the silver predominates. Parties are doing eXccllently iE thej placers of the Aztec District. at thei foot of the Santa Ritas. In fact this section is full of mineral, and the ores average higher than Tn any district in the world.

And yet for two years past l have compelled this Overpowering military force" to keep away from my Indians and of my reservation. During the last six months of military control at San Carlos, they succeeded in having three men killed at San Carlos and five on the San Pedro, besides the later murder of citizens on the public road and the theft of a number of horses.
