Better than Money.

ihere was once poor man, linen
weaver, who sat every day, from earli-
est dawn, in his workshop, hard at work;
Ind as he was one who put his trust in
God, to pass away the time he would
sing many a hymn or innocent song, as
he felt inclined. And he had so clear
and strong voice that the neighbors
required no alarm to wake them in the
morning. But this greatly annoyed
rich merchant who lived near him; for
he never could sleep before midnight,
owing to his anxious thoughts about his
money, and very early in the morning
he was awaked by this noisy, vexatious
sing-song of his neighbor, the weaver.
He reflected how he could put an end to
this annoyance. He could not forbid it;
for singing, like praying and working.
is the right of every man in his own
house, with which no one can interfere,
He must use other means then. He sent
for the workman, and asked him at what
value he estimated his singing. The
workman replied that he thought that it
was certainly worth days wages, as
it made the days work itself SO easy to
him. The merchant inquired how much
that was. The man replied, and it was
certainly not large sum which he
named.
Then the merchant said he would pay
him months wages in advance, not
for the singing, indeed, but that he
should hence sing no more, but keep q
strict silence. And he laid down the
money before him.
The weaver thought to himself it
could not be easier earned; so he took
The money and promised he would be as
still as mouse in his workshop. When
he got home with his money he counted
it out full of Joy; and they were all good
new coins-more money than he had
ever possessed before. In the evening,
before he went to sleep, he gazed at his
night he put it under his pillow, lest a
thief should steal any of it, At midnight
he still had it in his head, and thought
about what he should do with it, And
in the morning when he arose it seemed
to weigh down all his limbs like lead
his head was weary with lying awake so
anxiously, his hands were heavy and
lazy. and refused their usual service.
All, ana he dared not sing!
Time passed away slowly and tedious
ly, so that he could scarcely endure the
day. Meanwhile he had been thinking
the matter over and had come to a con-
clusion, for the man. who stood at eight
that evening in the merchants office was
the weaver.
''Sir, with your permission" he said,
''here you have your money back again;
it is an evil spirit which does not allow
me to sleep quietly"
And before the merchant could say a
word in reply, the weaver was already
outside the door, and singing, with a
clear, full voice:
A fresh and merry heart
Is wSrth more than money or wealth.
Trilirum, Tralirum.

Green Away"

Smith has been up to Alpena for four
days. He returned yesterday. He had
scarcely left his house to come down
town when he was halted by an ac-
euaintance with:
"Say, how was the corn looking up
that wayp" .aFc,
Smith gave favorable account, al
though he could not recall having
seen single ear. Half block further
on he was met by another man with:
"Hello! back againp Say. how did
you find the potato. cropp'.
Smith did not see an acre of potato
field, but he felt bound to reply that po-
tatoes were good crop. AS he waited
for the car third man greeted him with:
$50 you were up NorthP How did
wheat pan out up thereP' .hv
Smith did not know whether the crop
was ten or ten thousand bushels. but he
replied that wheat was good yield. On
che platform of the car a fourth mas
grasped his hand and anxiously re-
marked: NJs
Il hear you have been up to Alpenap
How were oats up there this fallp"
Smith didn't hear the name spoken
while on his trip, but OF course he ans
wered that oats were fine yield. As hs
got off the car the fifth man was ready
with: t.t,u..e1t # ,,,t.3

The sixth man evidently had something
on his mind. He ran clear across the
street to shake hands and call out:
"Just the man / was looking for!

hay-crop up therep" i9n
No, he didn't. Indeed he didn't
near the word used in any connection.
He believed the crop was fairly up.
There was seventh man. He was

in his anxiety to shake hands and OBJ

The Difficulty.

1 local assayer says the mines of Ari- zona Go not have a fair ". Nearly all tine ore in this vicinity, if not copper, carries strong traces, anu is either lead and silver or lead a-d copper. The Benson smelter pays three cents per puuui for lead. but takes no account of c1pser. The Denver melter pays S1.5O Der uuit for copper, but does not take lead. This makes it bad for those ores carrying nearly equal proportions of both these metals, as ae.Ely all the mines owned around here do. While the Benson folEs give S5 per cent for silver, the Denver smelteI is offering he-e go per cent. Freight and reduction

MAYOR STRAUSS.
His Return Last Night From the Ess.-
 Vhe Port Lobos Railroad.

Mayer c. M. Strauss returned last night from an extended trip to various points East, including Boston and New York. This morning a CITIZEN reporter called upon him, and found him in social conversation with Mir. I. $. Fried and other gentlemen. In answer as to hIs trip, he said he had very pleasant one, and he Is glad to be home. Times are very dull in the East. Capitalists there are frightened over false news purportIng to give accounts Of h. dian and cowboy and commercial troubles in Auzona, and he was kept busy denying them. The truth is. however, he feels greater per sonal security m the streets of Tucson than he does in New York city. The railroad business IS booming. The total amount of interest and dividends paid by all the railroads of the United States is Sl,O00OGO per day. Next year one will be able to ride in a palace car direct from the city of Boston to the cItv of Mexico. The men building these roads into Mexico are not looking for any im- mediate but for the ultimate good. As to the Port Lob0s road be had but very little to make public further than that the road will be built lie did not feel justified m saying anything more at present The mayor seems much re- treshed and strengthened by his trip, and IS ready to agaln tase up the reins Of government.

Washington LaMyers.

Ben ButterwUrth, by the way, IS, l see, to be the next commissioner of patents; that is, if he accepts it. The office IS worth S4,j00 a year, but Butterworth could make much more at the law, either here or in Cincinnati.
 Washington law practice pays well to men of Butterworth's stamp, who have been in congress, and who have large acquaintance joined to considerable legal ability. Bob Ingersoll makes SSO,- 600 a year, and the star route trial must have netted him about S40,OO0. Jerry Wilson was an Indiana congressman, and he came here on leaving the house of representatives to practice law. He makes now S50,000 a year and upward. Judge Shellabarger was an Ohio mem- Der of congress from Keifer's district, and hls fees are now six or eight times a cungressman's salary. He has built a mansion since he came to Washington, and has amassed wealth. Squire Mer- rick made between S70,O00 and SSO,OO0 out of the star route trial, and he IS worth a nice little fortune. Big lawyers here charge big fees, and get them. Roscoe Conkling does business here running pretty far up into the thousands yearly. Ex-Secretary Boutwell,, of Mas sachusetts, opened a law office in Wash ingtOn few days ago, and l understand Joe Mcdonald intends to come to Wash ington in case he does not get the pres idential nomination. - Cor.

Nnf ENHcilN a Ehnsf.

This morning as Captain George Hand was comfortably seated in the grand jury room enjoying his paper and the warm sunshine, be noticed beautiful rainbow on the wall opposite, more beautiful and Of livelier colors than any human artist could paint. The Captain Is not suparstitlous, vet there was a mystery about this rainbow that ap- Teared unsoluble, and the Enknnwable always produces an undefinable feeling of dread. Captain Hand had set in that same room, in the same spot, in the same position and looked over hIs paper a thousand times ID hundred fcrenoOns before when the sunbeams threw their r.ncils through the French plates and past his silvered locks against the piastered walls, but there had never been a rainbow. He first thought there must be some defect in the window panes, but a careful examination failed to detect the supposed bubble. That hypothesis had to be abandoned. The inmates of the different offices were called in to see the Captains picture ,' as he called it, and admire its gorgeous colors. All united in declaring 1t to be a prismatIc light, but where was the prism2 Finally one of them moved an oblong glass paper-weight on the center table, and the picture vanished. The mystery was solved, and every one pres ent seemed to be disappointed in not finding it to be genuine ghost. such as will vanish when one throws beans gt them over his left shoulder.

 BESsoN's cAPcISE POROUS PLAsTERs are pursued by a host Of miserable and worth less irnitators. eager to appropriate what they can of the fruits of its victories. These leeehes commonly take the form of a cheap plaster.
 Now. these harmless and worthless plasters would be detected in minute if people were careful in reading and remembering names. But most persons merely glance at them, understand partially and forget instantly. What result? This: Desiring to buy BENSON'S CAPCINE PLASTER. their own carelessness enables some storekeeper or druggist, who cares more for i've or ten cents additional profit than for the sweets of an approving conscience. to roll them up in- stead some cheap imitation with a similar name.
