THINGS THAT REHER DIE.

The pure. the bright, the beautiful,
That stirred our hearts in youth;
The impulse to q worthless prayer
The dreams of love and truth
The longing after something lost
The spirit yearDinR cry,
The strivings after better hopes
These things can never die.
The timid hand stretched forth to aid
a brother in his need,
The kindly word in griers dark hour
That proves q friend indeed
The plea for mer Y, softly breathed,
When Justice threatened high,
The sorrow of @ coltrite heart
These things shall never die.
The memory of a claspIng hand,
The pressure Of KISS,
And all the trif1es sweet and frail
That make up lifes first bliss.
If with a firm, unchaDging faith,
And holy trust and high,
Those hands have elasped and lips have
met. &t &#
These things shall never de.
The cruel and the bitter word
That wounded as it fell,
The chilling want of sympathy
We feel but never tell
The hard repulse that chills the heart
Whose hopes we're bounding high,
In an unfading record kept HH
These things shall never die.
Let nothing pass. for every hand
Must find some work to do;
Lose not a chance to waken love-
BE firm and just and true,
So shall a light that can not fade
Beam on thee from on high,
And angels voices say to thee-
These things shall never die.

Evil Effects Of eer-Drinking.

Alcohol is slow poison. Men drink
it largely diluted in beer, and manage
to keep up good outside show, while
within they are getting into a sad con-
dition. They did not know it them
selves, for they poison their nerves con-
tinually so that they get no true reports
from within. But let some accident
happen which sends them to the hos
pital and then hear what the doctors
say about them. ,lt2
DR.. Edwards says: ''The diseases of
beer-drinkers are always of dangerous
character, and in case of an accident,
they can never undergo the most trifing
operation with the security of the tenn
perate. They almost invariably die
under it, .agtitla bias hls
DR.. Grinrod, a prominent London
physician, says: IA cop;ous beer-drink-
crsis always one vital part He wears
his heart on his sleeve, bare to q death
wound even from rusty nail or the
claw of cat.'
DIR. Gordon says ''.The beer-drinkers,
when attacked with acute disease, are
not able to bear depletion, and they
die" ...4.i..6 talse. u
p DR.. Nixon says: Intoxicating
drinks, whether taken in the form Of
fermented or distilled liquors, are a
very frequent predisposing cause of
disease
One of our own workers, on a re-
cent visit the Bellevue Hospital, says:
"As we entered tie ward, the first
sight opposite the door was a surgeon
dressing a gangrenous arm. His words
to the patient, as we caught them,
were: /" No, | shall not let you go
OUT you would get glass eff beer, and
that would kill YOU" She continues:
"A boy in another bed, motherless.
friendless, a stranger in a strange land,
speaking no word of ours, had received
a slight wound which pure blood
would have thrown off; but he was q
beer victim, and his hurt, with his
poisoned blood, produced erysipelas.
Another had scratched his finger, and
his hand was in danger of amputation.
And so we went through the list, re-
ceiving testimony unexpected to us, al
most unasked by us, and almost uncon-
sciously given, that systems clogged
with effete matter which beer had pre-
vented passing off, were incapable of
resisting injury and disease
Some, If not all, Of these, no doubt,
had thought the beer was doing them
good. Many boast of the good it does
them, or of their being strong in spite
of the beer. II have drank gallon
of beer every day for the last thirty
years. said brewers drayman, "and
Twas never in better health than at this
moment" Yet the very next day he
died in a fit of apoplexy. The beer told
him that lie and he believed it.
Men who are really well and strong
do not die off in that way suddenly.
When these beer drinkers get into the
hospital, and the doctor. shows them
the true state Of things, then they begin
to see, though often too late, what beer
has really done to them.
''For they have healed the hurt slight
", saying: Peace, peace, when there is
no peace. y

Doing Business in Canada.

A party of Philadelphians who re-
Gently returned from trip to Canada
tell quaint story illustrating the ex-
treme thrift and simple habits of the
old French habitants of Canada While
they were in Quebec they rose at four
in the morning to visit the French
market, one of the sights of Quebec.
Driving ahead of their carriage they
noticed an old French peasant on his
way to market. He was in little low
cart, with seat about eighteen inches
wide, drawn by a large shepherd dog.
When they arrived at the market one Of
the Philadelphians purchased the mans
entire stock, an enormous five-cent
string of onions and dozen buncies of
radishes, for five cents. The days mar
keting was over for the old Frenchman,
and he whipped up his dog for the re-
turn trip. He had travelled eight
miles from the village of BEAUFORT,
near Quebec, and paid four cents toll
to sell ten cents worth of vegetables.
When the wear and tear of dog and
man was deducted from six cents the
profit must have been small one in
deed. 1t is no wonder that so many
Canadians cross the border to seek a
fortune in the United States. PbiIadeL-

Eggs and Hens.

\ It must be borne in mind that the
most profitable system of keeping
fowls involves four things, viz: i.
Crowding in winter for the sake of
warmth. 2. Plenty of room or fewer
fowls in summer. 8. Very early
Matched pullets for winter layers. 4.
Constant attention as to regularity Of
food, cleanliness, pure water, the dust
bath, etc.
People who have hens must be dis
tinguished from those who keep fowls.
Most of what is written is Intended for
the latter class. and these are encour-
aged to become fanciers-a poor plan,
as rule. The beginner should learn
to keep fowls with profit; then he NAV
adopt a breed which he likes and be-
come fancier, but in nine cases out of
ten there will be no profit in it.
Our supply Of eggs in winter is very
limited, and it may be safely predicted
that the demand Tor fresh eggs will be
Unsuitable for years to come. The
people who should raise eggs in win
ter are those who do not and who will
not; for there is no duller class of peo-
pie in the community, with reference
to matters which require thought and
change of plan, or any plan at all, than
the farmers-that is, those who have
hens. The difference between an egg
laid by a plump, healthy hen, fed with
good, fresh food daily, and an egg laid
by a thin, poorly-fed hen is as great as
the difference between good beef and
poor. A fowl fed on garbage and weak
Stops, with very little grain of any
kind, may lay eggs, to be sure, but
when those eggs are broken to be used
for cake, pies, ETC., they will spread in
weak, watery way over your dish, or
look a milky white instead of having
rich. slightly yellow tinge. A erich
egg retains its shape as far SIS pos
sible and yields to the beating of the
knife or spoon with more resistance
and gives you the conviction that YOU
are really beating something thicker
than water or diluted milk. "A. j.

THE Governors report to the Sec

 brief and yet comprehensive
 resume of Territorial develop

 litlcal condition. He devotes cons
 siderable space 10 the agricultural 1 development and resources of the
 Territory, and Salt River valley
 necessarily comes in for a good
 notice, which we will endeavor to give in full in day or two. He | urges that Congress determine who
 holds the title to the sC-caIled rail-
 road land grants, that they may be
 at once opened up to settlement; {;
 he recommends that Congress take | such action on the alleged Mexican
 land grants as will effectually bar
 all future annoyance of that kind in
 the Territory; he notices and com
 mends our Territorial Fair project, asks for the protection of our timber
 lands, the assistance of the govern. ment in building local railroads; notices the peaceable condition of the Indians; recommends the pur> chase of the San Carlos ceal lands from the Indians and the abolition
 of the sub>reservation on the Salt River above Phoenix; he renews his recommendation for the reinburse- ment by Congress of the money ex- pended by the citizens of Pima and Cochise county in defending them> selves against Rustlers and Indians; recommends a mounted patrol on l our Mexican border; notices the | spread of polygamous marriages; asks the assistance of Congress in maintaining schools by mak> ing our school lands available; he calls attention to the success in artesian water in Sulphur Spring Valley, where sufficient has been found to water 30,00O head of stock; asks for the appointment of l fourth United States Judge, and he increase of salary of judges, llso increase of pay of legislators to S9 per day; he recommends a geo> ogical survey and a branch m int, md asks that appropriations be made for public buildings and the of political privileges, so hat the people may vote for presl> ent, and that our delegate to Con ress may be vested in all the rights t f member.

TIE new charter in contemplation for the city should provide for the division of the city into four wards, at least with a Councilman from each ward. With such an arrange ment each Councilman would feel particularly interested in some cer> tain portion of the city, and more of a responsibility to his ward than it is probable under the present charter, that any of the Councilmen do for certain sections of the town, Each section of the city would, by such representation, be equally cared for, which does not at present seem to be the case.

MARIcoPA county is entitled to several clerkships in the legislature this winter. Be it remembered that this county has rarely asked for anything of the kind and more rarely ever received anything. If Yavapai will be just little modest this term and give the other counties a chance this term, her courtesy will be ap- preciated and she will lose nothing by her disposal te give the remain der of the Territory 8 chance in this matter. Very naturally Prescott is so situated as to gobble up most of sthese little ''perquisites" of legisla- tion if she so elects, but has she not already had a pretty good pull at the tug?

THE time is at hand when Arizona
 should lay the ground work of what
 should and will, in few years, be,
 come one of the leading educational institutions of the southwest, we
 allude to a university. Occasionally
 we notice some of our respected CO.,
 tenlporaries arguing that it is yet
 too early, that the scope of the
 public schools should be extended
 so as to tide over the present de-
 mands for higher education, just
 there a serious mistake will be
 made. It is not the province of the
 common scLool system to give colle-
 giate training, and the funda-
 mental educ ation of the country
 will be neglected, and in measure
 paralyzed, for the tendency is in
 general, to crowd children into
 courses of studies beyond their
 ability, and as mass beyond their
 needs. The common school educates
 and graduates ten thousand pupils,
 where the higher educational insti-
 tutions send one>fourth. They should
 be entirely separate, yet constituent
 parts of a great system of stepping stones, as it were, up the stairway of knowledge. The common school, the grammar school, the university,
 these should constitute the great di. visions of thorough closely uni 4 system. We have common schools; we have attempts as grammar schools; beyond these there have been no further course provided in our territory, and as a result, our young men and women now begin ing te demand something better than is furnished in our grammar grades are obliged to leave the territory to their education. Of course it is not anticipated that University in the territory should at once be supplied with numerous great and costly buildings, laboratories, libra ries, and a great corps of eminent | and trained professors. These are beyond our present ability; beyond | our present needs; but start should l be made, a nucleus established | around which should gather, as the | territory grows, the elements of a and important Univer- ,ity to which the students of other territories and states win flock in future years from the rigorous win> CTS of more northern climates, and | 'or which Arizona will soon furnish . liberal clientage. The tendency s, in all our most enterprising and educational states, to de> 1ote the entire energies of the com- non school to the education of the masses. The comparative few who would enter a grammar school, and he yet fewer who would continue 'I into a University should be spec> ally provided for, that there may 'e no interference with the most rec, most effectual administration f the fundamental elements of com~ non school education. To-day here is room, there IS material to tart 8 university in a humble way, nd in justice to the people of the srrItory, it should be put in motion, 7ith such facilities as the attendance 7ould justify,
