IincoIn'S Religion.
Ken: Prrl-v Poorr.I


 NIT. Lincoln's religious opinions. have bcen the subject of much discussi n since hi, death Eminent. during long and cycntful life for his kindness of heart and his generous sympathy for the opln- ions of al men Of whatever station ID lie, he listened tO the discussions upon rclig ious subjects that were forced upon him, even by 1ealois. with patient politeness and because he did not combat them, however extrsvagant, each one so hon orrd aftorward came clamOring before the public tO be recognized as the rcn. escnta tive of the presidents personal views on this subject Hence the contradictory as sertions hat be was an atheist an inndel, orthodox. or disbeliever. according To each one own peculiar faith
 History will little reckon what were President Lincoln's religious views. The nation, 10 whom his name and memory are dear. care nothing for what he may have said tO presumptuOus religious zeal ots. or what religious Zealots may have said to him. The people of this great land of ours. who fondly cherish the recOl' lection of the acts of kindness of him who. with malice toward none and charity for all. devoted his life to the interests of mankind. will care little for his seciarian views on religion. His great heart of sympathy for all mankind has won the love of millions. who have DO anxiety as 10 whether his opinions were heretical or orthodox. measured by the standard of religious bigots. That hc had faith in the great principles oi Christianity. that be exemplifed them in bis life, that he taught them in his fam ly. that he impressed them on his chil dren. are facts established beyond cayil or question

THE LOVELY PLANET VENUS.

\ Novel Clock.

\ novel clock is described in the news papers of Liverpool. where it has re. ccntly been set up. The clock is made on the simple principle of counting or registering apparatus, and indicating in large legihle figures the exact hour and minute throughout the whole day and night. The dial consists of series of equal-siled plates. on which the figures are marked
 These figures are arranged side iy side, and exposed to view through an aperture. diyis on being made in the center of the opening Co distinguish between the hours and minutes The fgurc6 on the left in dicaie the hours. those on the right the minutes past the hour, in the same man. ner as the time is shown in railway guides. The figures remain stationary for a minute at time. and precisely at every siXtie,h second the last figure on the right Is instanianeOuSly exchanged for the next in succession. Every ten minutes two figures are thus replaced. and at every hour they all suddenly disappear. and the exact time is simultaneously shown. The figures. being formed by openings in the plates glazed with opal glass. always show bright and clear, and at night are illum mated by the electric light.

 What Goldwin Smith says of English workingmen is equaly applicable 10 the same class in the Dni,9l States: "A slight change in the habits u ou- wOrkingmen would add more 10 their wealth. their happiness and their hopes than has been added by all the strikes or by conflicts of any kind.

THOSE who go into the ranch business m Arizona should not do So with the purpose of raising grain only. There are many varieties of fruits that can be successfully grown here on the mesa lands to say nothing of the grape. If is believed that the latter can be sue cessfully grown in many localities with ont irrigation after the fiist year or two. There is no doubt but the western DOT tiop of Arizona, along the Gila and Co., orsdo rivers is equal to southern Cali fornIa Iu the production of all kinds of fruits and in some superior. Some day We look to see the Arizona orange take the lead of all others in our markets. There are thousands of acres of the tin- est orange lands in the world in western Arizona, while in the more favored spots in the East, the apple, pair, peach and other fruits and berries usually grown in northern latitudes do well. The pos abilities of Arizona are great, but 1t re- quires capital patience and tune to develop them.
