 The tree which gives character to the landscape Tn the island of Ceylon is the cocoanut palm. whose slender grsyish trunk scars up for sixty or eighty feet and then bursts into s dense crown of great feathered leaves. each from ten to twelve feet in length These palms grow close together ln vast groves. and 10 one walking about under their shade their sp- pearance is very striking. and recalls the comparison which has been SO often made between a forest and e cathedral: for there Is a rude but evident resemblance to ar chiiecture in the lofty sisles formed by the shafts of the palms; and roofed in by the arched and denscly intermingled foli- age.

lEtcIiA rAAfsle
 An important change was recently ef- tected ID the Maricops lee and Packing company, by which Its sphere of useful ness will be increased, and the business rendered much no @ profitable. k C. Pearson has retired as director of the company and al. as general superin- 'endent, and hrs place is now filled by our prosperous and energetic citizen John Lutgerding. The latter gentleman SO V are informed, holds O Ie-balf in- teresI in tine four and pork packing branches Of the company, and will have charge of all business m these lines. Agreeable to the arrangement Mr. Lutgerding has already assumed charge of the pork packing operations of the company. for which 400 head of hogs are now in pens ready for slaughter. The governments made last summer m this direction thoroughly demonstrate that this branch of the business will prove successful as to curing meats, aud as U financial proposition. 1he cOm- pany will purchase the hogs from the farmers, and expect to handle during the coming season fully 1O,OO head. On the first of next month MT. Wilkins will go east and will purchase yats and  cauldrons for trying out lard, which will be put up ID regulation cans. There can be little doubt but that every pound Of bacon and every ounce | of lard will meet with ready sale m the local markets at slight advance over
 like articles imported from the east,
 hence the permanency of the business
 a assured, and a steady local market afforded tn the farmers, the benefits of which it would be difficult to over-esti- mate.
 J. NJ. Wilkins remains in full charge of the ice business of the company. and will see that other operations do not in teriere with his branch in the least de- gree. Next year the manufacture O! superior grades of flour, and, perhaps. the canning of fruits will embrace the deld covered by the Maricops Ice and Packing company, which proposes to
 keep up with the procession in the de- ,elopment of the Salt river valley.

Man Targets for United States SoIdierS-
 fBosfon Bud .ef

A new industry has been started at the Rock Island armory and arsenal It is ihe manufacture of man targets for use in the regular army These targets are made of steel and as near the form of an average sized man as can be outlined with steel They are made in three positions upright. al Q front. then in the position of firing with arms raised as if holding a musket Col Flagler himself invented the machine that works the steel 10 the proper shape. The steel frame is covered with cloth in such a manner that st dis iance the resemblance of a man is marked; and, what is important 1t can be told in just what part the man is hit-arm. leg. breast stomach. neck. shoulder or head Four hundred of these steel tar. gets are being made. requiring the use of l0s. .OOO pounds of steel
 In the target practice they will be placed In squads. in platOons. in com panies, and the various other forms in which soldiers move in the opening of an engagement The practice will commence at a range of 2J0 to 300 yards. and then be gradually increased to long distances The targets will be sent to military posts at which such practice can be best carried on. The only drawback to the effective ness of this practice is in the fact that the steel man targets can not fire back; if they could. the soldiers who arc firing at them might not be SO expert

A telegram to the AssOcIsted Press from Tucson. dated Sept. 18th, conveys the sad tidings that Alexander Levin, the orignator of Levin's Park, had been shot and killed by Louis Ricksbsugh. iu an altercation. The robust form that has since his death haunted the thor oughfares and the Club saloon, IS then but bis voluptuous ghost, and the spook is still strongly influenced by the ruling passion characteristic of the Boss during the days of his life. Mir. Levin was always full of the spirit of enter prise and the very incarnation of push and energy, and even though dead, that fst spook now exhibits sn energy that many other residents might emulate with advantage to themselves and credit to the community. The Boss was like Truth, that, when crushed to earth would rise again. and his happy ! faculty of making money was only sur passed by his ability to spend 1t. There were no circumstances that could keep him long under financial disster, and he has shaken hundreds of thousands of dollars about this city with reckless
 generosity. And true to thls principle

THE CIVIL SERVICE Law.

The number of Democratic politicians dis
pleased with the civil service law and anx-
ious to get it out of the way-or the number
that are willing to confess that they feel this
way-is growing larger every day, and it is
by no means improbable that in the not dis
tant future an attempt will be made to abol-
ish the law altogether, or modify it, or place
its enforcement in such hands, that it will
prove virtually dead letter. The precise
form that the movement is likely to take is
not defined yet. Several methods are sug-
gested. Congressman Bennett of South
Carolina wants to take the bull by the horns
and repeal the law. But the probability of
the success of that method is so slight that
very few Congressman will, we imagine be
found who will be willing to brave the popu-
lar rebuke which their connection with such
an attempt would bring down upon them.
Another method is to appeal to the courts in
the hope that the law will be declared I'M
constitutional The argument of the men
who profess to believe it unconstitutional is
that it takes the appointing out Of the hands
Of the President, where it is placed by the
constitution, and places it in the hands Of a
commission not known to the constitution
The answer to this is, and it seems to be a
very conclusive one, that the commission
does not appoint at all, it simply determines
the fitness of the applicants. There is little
chance, therefore, that the civil service law
can be got rid of by means of the courts
The only resource left apparently is the
indirect, though none the less effective
method, of removing the present commits
sion and constructing one Democratic politi-
clans can control. This is the plan that
promises the greatest success and it will
probably be the one which the shrewdest of
the spoilsmen win favor. With a commits
