know very little about social life

 is very gay. The army officer gets
 very good pay and he spends it right
 royalty. Even here, on the very edge of civilization, he receives flom his
 friends in the States big consign- ments of literary matter and whole baskets of spiritual refreshment. He has his billiards and lawn tennis, his croquet and his poker. He enjoys the society of many agreeable females, his brother officers wives, their cousins and their aunts. He dresses we'll, rides a fine horse, lives on the best, and but for the red tape and the martenism would have a very easy time oft. When he goes on a scout after Indians 1t is a gigantic picnic, and if upon his return he is able to report that two ponies were captured, or one old squaw was killed by his gallant troopers, he forthwith becomes an object of reverent ador- ation at the post and is made the hero of the latest great Indian bat tie" by the newspapers in the States.

Gold.

In q conversation last evening with Mir. Oscar $. Pratt, a railroad officer at Guaymas, the reporter elicited considerable information regarding Gusymas and Angel Guardla, the nearest point to the reputed "gold ields of Lower California" MT. Pratt, in reply to inquiries, said GuRymas is dull. The steamship project has not, as yet, developed further than on paper. The railroad traffic is picking up to considerable extent, A street railroad has just been finished in Guaymas, and alter 8 weeks running was found to be a failure. Business of all kinds is dull, and many mechanics are out of ems ployment. In regard to the gold ex- cltement, Mir. Pratt says. Some few firms in Angel Gusrdia had heavy stock of pelishable goods and boomed the gold fields in order to at. tract the people from the upper

The gold sent as samples was bought Of Indians and was nearly pure. People focekd there. and as the only means of reaching the diggings was to go via Guaymas, these firms put on line of sailing vessels and carried for S1OO all who ventured to go to Angel Guardia, distance of 200 miles, and about 15 to 50 miles from the alleged placers. Water Is scarce and wood still scarcer everything was increased in price hundred fold. and now the venturers are returning, a dead broke, disheartened lot of disappointed for tune hunters. .-El Paso Times.

 Haven't got no money? Then, madam, would suggest that you move into cheaper house; you are evidently living beyond your means. Economy is wealth. Economize in the matter of clothes and house rent. Cut your expenses, and then. perhaps some day you will have dime to spare-a dime. madam, that may be the means of preventing hungry and thirsty fellow-mortal from com hitting suicide;or it may be quarter "a coin of the value of twenty five cents-that will upholster the dark clouds on the horizon of his despair ing soul with silver plated lining, and fill his stomach with book beer.

MINERs-and by this term we mean men who own mines and work them are not at all pleased with the law which allows man to locate any number of claims and hold them by trickery. One operative miner yes terday told us that in his immediate neighborhood certain man claims, for himself and others, perhaps forty claims, some of which are good and would be worked if they could only be located by working miners. The claim owner in question holds his ground as long as the law will let him. His plan is, not to do the as. sessment work, but to watch and wait until time IS up, when he re-locates and holds them for another period. This kind of performance should not he encouraged. Mines can never be developed in this way, so that it is not strange that working miners de sire change in the law.-Prescott Courier,

Of the Puritans children were compelled
to believe the teachings of the bible. They
imposed their faith upon their children
before they were old enough to decide for
themselves" They did, and there is an
ancient, and to them sacred authority, for
so doing. ''These words which command
thee this day, shall be in the heart; and
thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy
children, and shalt talk to them when thou
sittest in thine house, and when thou walk
est by the way, and when thou Hest down,
and when thou risest up"

driving tho women into taa wilderness,
and leaving the men to saek other prey.

There are reasons for grave oonsiaera-
tion in the depraved manners and morals
of the youths of to-day,whether return to
the earlier training of the Puritans, incor-
porating moral culture with Greek and
Latin, music and drawing would not be
the part Of wisdom.
If manners are the ornament of action
more unadorned class can not well be
imagined than the majority of the young
folks OF the present time.
Macauley says, 'To the courage and
talents Of the Puritans mankind owe ines
simable obligations. To know God, te
serve Him, to enjoy Him
was with them the grea
end of existence. They recsg
nized no title to superiority but the favor
of God. They Frustrated themselves be
fore their Maker; but set their foot on the
neck of kings" The present generation
may be too wise to believe in witchcraft
but are they strong enough to do right, to
