THE PEDAGOGIC MILL.
1t Has Temporarily Stopped Grinding,
but May Resume at Any Time.

The Board Of Examiners met as
usual at 10 o'clock this morning, but
there were no applicants for teachers
certificates. The Board therefore ad-
journed till tomorrow morning, when,
should no applicants appear, It will
again adjourn, and will continue to do
this from day to day until satisfied
that there are no other applicants
coming.
The Board has been in session
three days. On the first day Mr.. Dill.
ley conducted the examination. Yes
terday and to-day, Mr.. Dilley being
indisposed, the Rev. Mr. Pratt repre-.
scented him at the examination, and
was consequently the principal exam
incr. v. S. Anderson. the other men,
Der Of the Board, scarcely participated
in the examination; but he was pres
ent while it went on, and is satisfied
that all the applicants, SO far, are un-
usually bright and thoroughly descrv-
ing Of q certificate of the first grade.
He hesitated a while before giving a
6rst-grade certificate to the two Belle
vue young ladies, but this was simpl,
because of their extreme youth. In
all other respects they were fully en-.
titled to it.
The above statement is made at Mr.
Anderson's request, and because thu
impression seems to prevail in the
community that the examiners hay,

THE San Francisco Call, in speaking of the present Apache outbreak, says: Altogether they have slam nearly one hundred people, while but two or three Indians are reported to have been killed. What are tho troops doing? So far their operations seem to have amounted to little or nothing, and yet we hear of cav airy and infantry companies moving up on the enemy from different points. It is very strange that mere handful of sayages should carry death and destruc- ton before them, in the midst of q country populated by whites and with military stations at convenient distances. The fact seems inexplicable. If this state of affairs continues, it would be well for the Government to withdraw its troops and call upon half dozen regi- ments of volunteers to take the field. A class of hardy adventurers could be pro- cured who would made short work of the Apache war.

AlR. LABOUCHEEE'S speech m OppOsl-
 tiou to the usual grant of marriage
 settlement to the Duke of Albany was
 clever in it's way, but it's force was mar
 red by some extraordinary bits of
 bungling. He described Prince Leopold
 as a married man, talked about
 "epithalmiums,' mixed William of
 Orange up with William the COngueror,
 dated the revolution rf 1888 Tn 1898,
 carrlerfOver that last Irish rebellion to 1898 and in various other ways con tubuted to the amusement of the HO1se and tO produce an impression that hls speech was not made in earnest but was simply an advertisement for the benefit ! of his electors at Northampton. Never theless our London contemporaries do not show much perception of tho drift of things when they ridlcule or under rate the opposition Go the grant. or course it was quite Illogical of Mr. Broad hurst to show by a table of figures that Prince LeOpold's weekly revenue is
 much in excess of the average annual income of educated and hardworking professional men m England, and of MT. Storey tO point ont that the money al- lowed the Duke of Albany would sup port thousand decent couples in their old age. But such statements will have their effect with the "residuum." now l that 1t has received or IS to receive the suffrage. A glance at the division lists, too, shows that the opposition tO these grants has for some time been iucreas- ing uniformly and steadily. In 1871 the MarchlOness Of Lorue secured her dow " by vote of $50 Co ln In les2 the Duke of Albanys grant was passed by
 3S7 tO 42 Only Sir Charles Dllke, SIT ! Wilfred Lawson, the Hon. Auberon Her bert and MT. Anderson attacked the ClvD
 List in 1872. In 1878, on the question of the Duke of EdiuburChs annuity, l Is members went into tte opposition 1 lobby. In L beral parties 1t Is always 1 the Radical minority which rules, and | it is not necessar, for that minority to ] be formidable m numb rs to give it se- | cure control. Opposition to the Crown | IS becoming more popular in England every day and. as Is usually the case in ! such matters, the Crown IS helping the Radicals. The unfortunate assumption of the imperial style in the Queens me-
 morial monument to Lord BeacOnsfeld,
 and the rumOred int ntlOn of the Gov ernment to introduce an imperial em-
 blem ID the cDinage, are serious blum
 ders at such time, when the Radical
 leaders are in eager search of English
 red herrings 70 draw across the Irish
 scent.

COnSumptiOn.

Professor Tyndall announces that a
 German scientist, Dr. Koch, has at length
 succeeded m tracing the cause of con-
 sumption to a parasitic insect, and in
 proving that the disease k cOmmunlcGt- ed by infection. Tyndall at the same time intimates that with this important discovery a cure for the disease has been found, and certainly 1t would be difficult to exaggeratr the consequence Ofthls h. telhgence. Professor Iyndall occupies so high position in the scientific world that
 he cannot be supposed capable of mak- ing a premature or ill considered repre- sentatiOn upon question of such uni- versal interest aud importance, and therefore bis statement may be accepted as a guarantee for the genuineness of the discovery, though 1t does not seem clear that he m any way pledges himself to the efficiency of the remedial meas ures devised by Dr. Koch. The pOssi- blllty that consumption may be cured, however, Is a thought whicl contains greater hope and comfort for hund- reds of thousands of human beings than perhaps any other announce ment that could be made. For no disease has made such awful Tavages, or has resisted the efforts of science so sue cessfully, nor IS there any part of the world in which the vlctims of cOnsump- tiou do not c institute a very large per centage in the regular bills of mortality. The man who has conferred such a boom upon the human race will be remCm- bered even before Jenner, and if, as Professor Tyndall claims, this great dis cOvery has been made possible only vlvisection, the opponents of that practice are likely to be over whelmed by the tremendous argument thus suddenly brought against them.

Nearly Kissed Tnemselres to Death.
London Telegraph. April I3.I

| IA4lulol Aeic-fdpl. AFEAA Aasl
 Osculation is unquestionably pleas
 ing pursuit It has Oeen recognized as l such from time immemOrial, by ages uu-
 numbered of lOve's, poets, and even phi
 lOsOphers. There are, doubtless, at the present moment, in this as in other countries, many enamored swains who ask no better than tO be permitted to imprint "ten thUuSandkisses, one after
 another, upon the lips of the damsels on
 whom they have bestowed their aflec-
 tiOns. They may, however, esteem them
 selvrs fortunate If their opportunities in
 this direction are somewhat limited, as
 the following true story will show: At
 an evening party in kelkheim, few
 weeks ago, the conversation happened to
 turn upon kissing, and the question arose
 now many salutatIous of this class could
 be exchanged between two ardent lovers
 within a certain space of time. As usual opinions differed, and the discussion
 waxsd warm Presently a fiery youth offered to bet anybody present the Ger man equivalent of ten-pOuud note that he and his betrothed would kiss one an- other 10000 times within ten hours, pro- ylded they were permitted to pIrtake of 1 some slight refreshment at intervals of ! half an hour during the performance. | His wager having been excepted and the | money posted, the afiianced couple ad- ] dressed themselves to the achieve ment | of their congenial task. At the expira- | tiOn of the first hour their account stood l credited with two thousand kisses Dur | ing the second they added another | thousand, and during the thI.d seven hundred and fifty to that number. Then pit,ful to state, they both broke down. The youths lips were stricken with cr.tiur. and tie maiden tainted away. Eater on m the evening -..- z-as com pelied to take to her bed with a sharp attack of neuralgia. An even more dis tressing results ensued from this surfeit 1f endearment, for 1t led to the breaking off, by mutual cOnsent.of hopeful mat engagement. Young lovers should keep this sad tale n mind and moderate their transports, for, strange l IS 1t may seem, Dan Cupid himself may Je kissed to death.

WE think that the pamphlet issued by the damphool philanthropists of Phila- delphia, called the Proposed Indian Policy" can be made of service as a book of tactics to educate our army in the successful methods of Indian war fare. It publishes the accounts of how good Indians are made with the full details. From these accounts it appears that the only way to successfully handle the Indian is to surprise him. Our observation of military operations this summer and last convinces us that nothing is to be hoped for from sn open engagement. The Indians will in- vsrisbly scatter, and night surprise IS the only thing from which we can hope for any general slaughter of the red devils. A well executed surprise upon camp of Apsches would do more to settle the outbreak, than all the march ing and counter marching of troops and occasional daylight skirmishes. They amount to nothing. A blow must be dealt suddenly, and dissstrously to the miserable miscreants to have it at all effective.

 GLOBE CHRONICLE: Three Indians strayi.g with arms in hand in the vicini- ty of Iloneer camp have been disarmed and brought into town during the past week by the miners, and turned over to the Sheriff: at the same time notice was sent to the acting agent at San Carlos that any of his wards found proving around the Pioneer region in arms, would be treated as hostlles without waiting for overt" acts. We hope the occasion for such extreme measures may Lot arise, and while the inhabitants Of that thriving camp, winch contains sev- eral families of women and children, could not be blamed, perhaps, for so ex- treme a method of self-protection it seems hardly advisable inasmuch as it would surely precipiiate unknown trou- ble and certain attempts at retaliation on the part of the Indians. The better plan would seem to be to persevere in keeping constant watch and guard against every possible surprise"

Emulsion of thr Celfs.

Greens "Making of England" con- tains the following: The hurry of their
 flight may be gathered from relics their caye-life has left behind it. There was clearly little time to do more than tO drive off the cattle, the swine, the goats, whose bones lie scattered round the hearth-fre at the mouth of the cave, where they sery ed the vretchedfugitives for food. Their women must have buckled hastily their brooches of bronze or partI-cOlored enamel, the peculiar workmanship of Celtic Britain, and snatched up a few household im- plements as they hurried away. The men, no doubt, girded on as hastily the swords whose dainty sword-hilts of ivory and bronze still remain to tell the tale of their doom, and hiding in their breast what money the house contained, from cons of Trojan to the wretched "minims" that told of the empires decay mounted their horses to protect their flight At nightfall all were crouched beneath the dripping roof of the cave or round the fire that was blazing at it's mouth. and a long suffering began in which the fugitives lost year by year the memory of the civilization from which they came. 4 few charred bones show how hunger drove them to slay their horses for food; reddened pebbles mark the hour when the new vessels they wrought were too weak to stand the fire, and their meal was cooked by dropping heated stones into the pot. A time s ems to have come when their very spindles were exhausted and the women who wove in that dark retreat made spindle-whorls as they could from the bones that lay about them.

 THE Territory could hope for no change in the Indian policy from change in the party in power. The Indian ring is soulless thing which knows no principles religious or political, and is moved by no consideration except money. The records of Congress show that it draws the reins over as many Democratic members as Republicans. It Is all things to all men, and will not let go its hold as long as it can delude sentinemtalists in the East or there is an Indian over whose annuity Q job can be put up. Arizona's political action can not produce the slightest effect upon the political complexion Of the General Government, and by continuing to go against the administration, it simply retards its own development and post pones longer the period when we may nope to attain the rights of Statehood, and secure a voice in the management Of national affairs.

A FALSE ALARM.

In most instances the rumors and re- ports of the present Indian outbreak which have reached us have been too true. With the exception of the reported Galeyville massacre those reports re- ceived up to Saturday night have been more than verified by the tragedies they recount.
 The report .however, of the outbreak of the White Mountain Indians which was received in this city and transmitted to the associated press was evidently a grouudless rumor coming naturally from the feverish state of excitement existing In those sections which have recently been visited by the savage Apaches. Gov. Tritle has received the following dispatch which seems to leave no doubt as to the falsity of the report that the White Mountain Indians have left their reservation:
 WILCOX, A. T., April 29.-F. 4. Tritle, Governor, Tucson. - Acting Agent Pangburn reports everything quiet No Indians have left the reservation since the morning of the 18th PERRY.
 This dispatch was sent in answer to inquiries made by the Governor.
 It is absolutely impossible to avoid giving currency to unfOunded rumOrs, but it is a fortunate thing for the Ter ritory that the rumor of White Mount ain outbreak has proven false.

The Highest RniIding in Enrone.

Hitherto the Hospice of the Great St Bei nard, which stands S2O0feet above the level of the sea, has enjoyed the distinct ion of being the most elevated inhabited building in Europe. This honor IS now no longer claimed. During the past year the city authorities of Catania, in Sicily, have caused to be erected near the summit of the great volcano, Mt. Etna, an astroro omical observatory which stands 2,9i3 metres above the sea level, or fully 1000 feet higher than tbe Hos pice of St. Bernard. The structure IS nine metres in height, and covers an area of POO square metres. It consists of an upper and lower story, and IS built in a circular form. In the lower story there rests massive pillar, upon which is placed the great, refracting telescope. The lower story is divided into dining room, kitchen and stOre-rOOms. In the upper story there are three bedrooms, intended for the accommodation of as- tronomers and tourists visiting the es- tablishment. The roof consists of q movable cupola or dome. From the balconies of the upper story prospect of vast extent and grandeur IS present ed. The spectator Is able to see over half the island of Sicily, the island of Malta, the Lipari Isles, and the province of Calabria, on the mainland of Italy. The observatory is built upon a small cone, which will, in the case of an erup- ton, protect it completely from the lava stream which always flows down on the opposite side of the volcano.

THE INCARCERATION OF WITNESSES.

The law relating to witnesses as 1t now stands upon our statute books permits a dangerous Infraction of personal rights, and it should be one of the first acts of our legislature to repeal this relic of bar barism and make it as safe for a poor man and stranger in Arizona as it IS for rich man and a resident. It places in the hands of Judge and the District Attorney a power over the persons of American citizens which is subject to tyrannical abuse and which it would seem from an examination of several cases has been abused. It isa notorious fact that innocent men, because they were poor and unknown, have been for months in our county jail compelled to associate with the vilest criminals, en- tailing q needless expense upon the county, when the law that permits such an abuse of personal rights also provides a way by which witnesses under such cir cumstances may be released. Wequote for the benefit of our readers the selection of the law to which we refer.
 (56) SEC. 153. When, however. it shall satisfactorily appear by examination on oath of the witness, or any person, that the witness Is unable to procure sureties, he may be forthwith conditionally exam ined on behalf of the Territory; such examination shall be by question and answer, and shall be conducted Tn the same manner as the examination before a committing magistrate IS required by this act to be conducted, and the wit ness shall thereupon be discharged.
 Now, either the whole law permitting the imprisonment of witnesses should be repealed or the examination and release of witnesses should be made obligatory and a penalty should be attached for a failure to comply with the law.
 The law as it now stands, leaves it optional with the Judge, at the req quest of the District Attorney, in case of ina bihty to secure the required sureties. to commit or order an examination of the witness.
 These officers seem disposed to use this power to an ineIcusable extent. and it is high time the people deprived them lit
 A man has rights which are sacred, If he is poor and unknown, and the Dis trict Attorney, as the representative Of the people, is just as much under obi gations to see that a witness or the criminal himself secures every right 10 which he is entitled as to prosecute a case. The poor witness now incarcerated in the county jail with the dresry prospect of at least SIX months imprisonment before him, who has al- ready made an appeal to the District Attorney, is entitled to that mans ser vices in securing his release, and the court should grant him a speedy hear ing and a release under the section of the law above quoted. The Legislature should not fail to remedy the evil.

Boston in Fl PaSo.
F. A. TRITLE, Gov. of Arizona.

The Boston excusion party does Lo. seem to have left a good impression upon the good people of Fl Psso. The Lone Star gives the party the following 'send off,
 The Boston excursionists, who visited the city last Tuesday, were about the uglest, stingiest set we ever saw. It is stated that the whole party of If per sons did not spend ten dollars in the town. The entire necessary expense of the party was embraced in the price each member paid for his ticket which included hotel bills and carriages, all of which was paid for by the managers of the excursion. One of the party assured a merchant of this city that his own patty emb acing himself, wife and two daughters, had not spent to exceed two dollars since leaving Boston, the trip through Kansas, Colorado and New Mexico having occupied about three weeks Another paid for glass of lem onade at the hotel bar and carried half of 1t up stairs to his wife. 4 third gen. tleman was glad to avail himself of the kindness of one of the residents of the city to show him around town and across the river and then grumbled at paying him ten cents for a newspaper. The wife of fourth berated her husband for eItravagance because he paid boot black to give his boots a shine. Boston people, We have heard, are noted for their big feet and big intellects; and, if this party is to be taken as fair sample, little souls and ugly faces might be added to their notable characteristics. Any little Mexican village of five hun- drep population can tnrn out more pretty faces to fandGngo than were to be seen in this party. We hope the next may be an improvement upon this one.
