The market news is a little brighter, every
few days a slight rise of sugar prices takes
place in London, and the last kilograms
give the price of Muscovado as lbs. Sd.
The reason for this does not lie in reduced
supplies, for we find that on the 2nd inst
the stock in the four great British sugar
ports of London, Liverpool, Glasgow and
Bristol was $4,000 tons more than the al
ready excessive stock at the corresponding
time last year. The true reason probably
is that as the beet root sOwings are now
complete it is known for certain that a
great reduction in the area has taken
place, and that buyers both bona fife and
speculative see their chances slipping
away from them and hence are beginning
to purchase. We shall therefore probably
soon learn of a considerable reduction of
the warehOused stocks. The American
market must shortly shew "A sympathetic
movement, though at present the price in
New York continues TO be given at the
same rate as for some weeks past. The
factory price was fixed on Monday "a 1922,
a rise OF 6 cents over the price for the pre-
vious week. 1t1.u t.

Doing up a DPperadO.

News reaches the city to the effect | that Nicholas Aragon, a well known | desperate is again at his old tricks m Lincoln county. About three months ago he killed Deputy Sheriff Jasper Corn at Gillinas springs, thirty miles south of Las Vegas, Since that time he has been at lodge. and three days ago | Deputy Sheriff John Hurly aud James Brent corralled Aragon in his rendez- vous, an adobe house situated three miles below Chaperito. The desperado was wounded and returning the fire shot hole through Brent's hat. Up to yes terday he had successfully defied all at tempts to dlslodge him and Sheriff HilBrio Romero. of Las Vegas, was call ed upon for aid. He and several depu- ties have now gone to the scene, carrying a quantity of giant powder and fuse with which to blow up Aragon's i'm promptu fort.
 A Las Vegas dispatch sent out last night gives this later information: Nicholas Aragon the famous outlaw and murderer, formerly member of Billy the Kid gang" was captured at hIs ret deZvons near ChaperIto, thirty miles from here to-day.
 AragOn is an old time killer and num- bers fully dozen men on his dead list. He waylaId and murdered Col. Potter near Golden. two years ago. He escap- ed from Puerto de Luna by shooting the sheriff. The murder of Corn came next and now Hurly swells the list. He comes from family of noted despera- does and now has brother in jail for murder. The enraRed populace are liable to lynch him.

Wheat by Evolution.
IScientifc Journal

Grant. a noted botanist, says wheat ranks by origin as a degenerated and de graded lily. The primitive ancestor of the lily was a very simple plant, with a triple set of pOllen-bcaring s,amens. fer tilized by insects IL thus acquired those bright colors and that beauty which rivaled solomon in all his glory The development was through the aleSina and marsh arrOwgrass and innumerable forms, until it reached the perfect lily.
 The first downward step seems 10 have been self-fertilization taking the place of the insect aid Afterwards the winds brought the varied fertilizing pollen dust, and SO came the rusheS-plain little lilies. with dry. brownish flowers; then the wood rushes, something between the true rush and the grasses The EuscaulOn, a com mon American water plant, rushlike in character, bridged over the gap between the rIshes and the grasses. and then step by step the changes in the part of the flower cultivated in our wheat plant With the wood rush commenced the habit of storing gluten and starch along with the embryo. which has made the cereal so valuable for human food and raised our wheat, the descendant of the lily, the queen of the floral world. 10 the rank of the prince of grains. bearing its princely sway upon all the golden harvcst-fields of every civilized race and nation of the globe

One of Nature,s PlaYfhinrs.

Samuel Kent Kane, an uncle of Dr.
 Kane of Arctic fame, is dead. He was
 u native of Ohio, and was in his sixty
 seventh year. He was Professor If
 Natural Science in Oberlia College
 when the oil excitement broke out He
 made ventures and prospered, becoming | a millionaire. Then be was caught in | large speculatiOns; the originators of
 the Standard Oil Company secured his refineries, and Kane was pennilesa. | Next the mining fever broke out. Kane was in Colorado and pauper. He went | into mining enterprises and came out a millionaire. There came a turn in the | tide, however. but this time he saved | S6J0,OO0 out of the wreck fl hIs fortune. ! He went East, and his wealth increased | to a million; but confidence speculator again made him poor. In 1881, while in Arizona examining certain copper min ing lands for Boston capitalists, luck again came to him. In three months he
 returned East with S2OO,000.
 The above article is now going the
 rounds of the press and relates tn q
 well known ex-TucsOn character. Dr. Kane first became known to the public here as the manipulator of the Santa Catalina company, In which he was largely interested. It was through him that the original sale was made, and that Boston capitalists induced to invest in
 what at one time promised to be one of
 the greatest money-making schemes ever concOcted In Arizona. The amount he made by this Is not generally
 known, but be 1t much or little 1t went
 the way of previous fortunes, He was
 warm-hearted and generous to a fault,
 an enemy to no man save himself He left for New York on a mining specula-
 ton near two years ago, but evidently
 had lost his grip, for he failed in his en-
 deavor and but little was heard of him

Vaccination YIndieated.
London Glots.1


 At the instance of Mr. Burt. q parlia. mentary paper is just published which will not make pleasant reading for the characterization people. IL shows at a glance the annual number Of deaths from smallpox in the army and navy since 1860. together with the ratio of such deaths per l l.O0O, and the number of men joining in each year. Throughout the whole period. with very few exceptions, the tendency has been toward a constant diminution of mortality. In the case of the army, this is all the more gratifying on account of the much larger number of recruits now joining the service. a class particularly liable Co catch any in. ctiOus disease which happens to bc rife.
 During the first five years Co which the table refers. the average actual morality from smallpox in the army was 29.j and the average number of rcCuits lO, ,J29 But in the last five years the mortality per an- nun fell Co j. j. while the number of men joining rose to 7.GGG. Turning 10 the companion service which had twenty six fatal cases in 1860, We find a clean record for two years in successiOn-lS15 and 1873 and the final ration per 1000 k only .O3, the same as in the army lt appears established. therefore, by these tests that compulsory revaccinatiOn is slow but surely oper ing to stamp out smallpox both in the army and navy. and fl this happens in these cases we have warrant for believing that the same results might be accomplished in the civil population.

4 Military Empire.


 This is the season of the military maneuvers, and the regiments are ire quently seen on the train They look like real soldiers, not like militia: for there has been rain every day for the past three weeks, and campaign practice l.1s been in the mud. At the railway stations may be seen battalions homeward bound, as muddy as the soldiers of the Union and COnfed- crate armies during the winter of lS64-6j. l learn that under the law. some two years old. by which an additional class of reserves are utilized Germany could put into service 2,0OO. GOO men every one trained soldier accustomed tO obey his officers If only onefou-th of this were really put in the field. it ould make a mass of physical force. led by skilled officers, such aS, perhaps, the world has never seen.
 The evils O. taking year of a young mans life and using it up in drillings and guard-moCntings are obvious enough. and one cause of the large German emigration Is the desire Co escape military COuscrip- ton. Still. there are some compensation. IL turns stripling boys into men. it tends tO equalize the various grades of society, and tends to make the bOOr a gcutleman and the aristocrat fellow citizen. It is pleasant 10 hear the muddy battalions singing on the trains of cars as they pass; there is good fellowship there.

New Use for Photography.
IScientifie Journall

Photography is now turned to new uses in Paris courts in cases of alleged adulter. ation of pepper. farina, and other articles of commerce. Hitherto the evidence of experts who have examined such commOdi. ties with the microscope has been accepted as conclusive. but the new system intro. duccd by he chemists of the municipal laboratory has changed the method of pro cedure They now conduct their analysis of minute samples of commodities under a strong light. which permits the use of a photographic microscope The photograph thus taken is sufficiently large 10 be easily inspected by the court. and thus the judges may be able to verify the investigations. and also give the prisoner the benefit of any mistake which may be discovered in the expert testimony.

Mnrmnn Invasion of Mexico.

Regarding the threatened Mormon in- vasion of Mexico, the Two Republics pertinently asks what position the Mex ican government proposes to take in the matter. Let Mormonism get foothold in Mexico and 1t will spread untIl the whole country is pervaded with the seeds of this poisonous doctrine. The author ities should realize from the experience in the United States that Mormonism requires severe legislation to keep 1t within proper limits. It Is better that this legislation should be enacted Tn the beginning and under all circumstances be strictly enforced. MormonIsm must be handled with iron gloves.
