A gentleman who recently return ed from Bowie, where Gen. Crook had his headquarters, remarked to us that he observed a very marked change in the appearance ofthe old General and renowned Indian fight CT. He seems to have lost much of the buoyaney and elasticity of for mer years-was more retired, re- served and reticent, seldom appear ing in public except when official duties required his presence. No doubt he feels keen disappointment by not being promoted to the va cancy occasioned by the death of Gen. McDowell.-Clifton Clarion.

PROCLAMATION!
A General Day of Deep Mourn
 ing Ordered
sy tke Chief Executive of the United
 States.

WASHINGTON, July 23.-The fol- lowing proclamation was issued this morning by the President:
 EXECUTIVE MANSION, Washing ton, July 23.-The President of the United States has received the sad tidings of the death of that illus trious citizen and ex-President of the United States. General U. $. Grant, at Mt. McGregor,in the state of New York, to which place he had lately been removed in the en- deavor to prolong his life. In mak- ing this announcement to the peo- ple of the United States, the Presi- dent is impressed with the magni-. tude of the public loss of the great military leader, who was in the hour of victory magnanimous, amid disaster serene and self sus- tained, who in every station, whether as a soldier or chief magis- trate, twice called to power by his fellow countrymen, trod unswerv- ingly the path of duty, undecided by doubts, single-minded and straightforward, the country has witnessed with deep emotion his prolonged and painful struggle with painful disease, and has watched by his couch with fearful sympathy. The destined end has come at last and his spirit has re- turned to the Creator, who sent it forth. The great heart of the na- tion that followed him when living with love and pride, bows now in sorrow above him dead, tenderly mindful of his virtues, his great patriotic services, and of the loss occasioned by his death,
 In testimony to the memory of General Grant it is ordered that the executive mansion and the sev- cral departments at Washington be draped in mourning for per iod of thirty days, and that all public business shall on the day of the funeral be suspended, and the Secretaries of War and Navy will cause orders to be issued for ap- propriate military and naval honors to be rendered on that day.
 In witness whereof I have here unto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Done at the City of Wash ington, July g, A. D. 1885, and of the Independence of the United States the 10th.
 GROVER CLEVELAND,
 President.

Wood Dodd, who left here some time since for Bowie, to join the contemplated expedition of Gen. Crook to Mexico, as guide, has re- turned to Clifton. He did consid- erable travelling in Mexico, and had a varied and interesting experience He is an old and experienced In dian fighter, and knows this part of Arizona and Sonora familiarly. It is interesting to hear him tell his experience on the frontier and his opinion of military officers, who never having seen an Indian or a trail, are sent fresh from the mili- tary academy to cope with the willy savages.-Clifton Clarion.

What Congress Costs.

The legislative appropriation bill
pending in the House gives some idea OF
what Congress costs. In the list of ex-
ponses the first item compensation of
Senators lis put down at $380,0O0. while
for pay of members Of the House the
sum Of $1,696,000 is appropriated, max
ing more than 100000 on salaries
alone to members. There are still great
er expenses in the aggregate, though
mono so large in a single item. The
mileage Of the members of the House
and Senate Is alone nearly $4,000. For
clerks to committees, messengers and
others to wait upon and serve honorable
statesmen the sum OF $4,000 is asked.
Even the little item Of stationary counts
up, tho sum to be appropriated by the
bill as reported being over 100000. There
is the usual appropriation for the betan-
ic garden, the purpose Of which seems
to be to furnish boQuets to members and
their families. This is $1,000. For the
library OF Congress the appropriation is
$4,000. On the whole Congress seems
to be doing pretty vol, more than 3d.
100000 for the salary list, 100000 for
stationery, over $4,000 for library, SILL
600 for bo1uets and more than $500,O00
for persons to wait on them do work In
eidont to their presence there.

Manned Union Soldiers.
Special Telegram to The Inter Ocean.

Special Telegram to The Inter Ocean.
WASHINGTON Feb. 17.-Among the Of
fieers OF the House are IA manned Union
soldiers, for whom provision was made
as far back as 1865, These men are
borne on what is known as the soldiers
rolf and cannot be renewed without the
authority of the House. Until 1875,
whea the Democrats gained possession Of
tho House, those upon the soldiers roll
were disabled veterans, One-half Of whom
were Democrats and One-half Republic
cans. DoOrkeepers FitZhugh and Polk,
of unfragrant memory, promptly remOv-
ed the Republicans and appointed able
bodied Democrats ir their places. One
of them was baby in his cradle when
the war began, and several Of the others
never saw military service. As soon as
the Republicans gained control of the
House in 1881 the roll was purged of the
names of men who were not disabled
soldiers, and the Republicans who had
been dismissed were reinstated. OF the
fourteen men now borne on tie rolls
seven are Democrats or were appointed
by Democratic influence. There is not
one who did not lose limb in the ser
vice, and one of them is minus both his
hands. The duties of these cripplss Is to
attend the doors leading to the hall of
the House, most being assigned TO
duty in the galleries. When the item
in the legislative appropriation bill was
reached Col. Cox, of North Carolina, late
of tho Confederate army, moved to amend
by striking out these words: "And here
after messengers on the soldiers roll
shall not be subject to removal except
for cause reported to and approved by
the House."
The amendment was ruled out Of or
der as an attempt to change the existing
law, but the fact that an effort was
made to displaee these deserving men
should not be overlooked by men who
served in the war fol- suppressing the
rebellion.

High License in Minneapolis.

The total abstinence temperance So
cieties Of the city have recently prspar-
ed memorial to the State Legislature
asking for the enaeting OF high-license
law. The petition points out the in
crease OF drunkenness in Minnesota, and
sets forth that it is the highest exercise
of self preservatery power lodged in the
state to curb and restrain the vice and
everything which lead to it by all prac-
teal and lawful ways. "Othsr States"
it continues "havs tried remedies
some by absolutely PROHIBITING the
liquor traffic within their borders, ether
through stringent police regulations, by
way OF large license fees and forfeiture.
These last would seem not to meet the
popular demand in Minnesota" The
memorial further states that high IL
cense laws have been successfully en-
forced in Illinois and Nebraska. 1t there
fore petitions the Legislature to adopt a
measure similar to the law in Nebraska
and Illinois, wherein the license fee to
be charged shall not be less than $500.
The petition was yesterday circulated
among the congregation at the Church
of tho Immaculate Conception, where
several hundred signatures were OBJ
tanned. Blanks will alse be distributed
throughout the city by a committee of
the total abstinence societies, and simil-
ar organizations in tho state will also
exert themselves to secure names to the
acknowledgements Tribune.

well for those having no warm place for
the young chicks to attempt Matching

lay in Osteber, and with good care, will
continue to lay all winter, when eggs
are scarce and high, and cOeksrels will

old than when raised later and kept
muck longer. Keep watch Of yeur
doeks, SO that the difference in their dis
positions can DO noted. Use only these
hens for sittsrs that are quiet and not
inclined to be nervous, for they will in
variably make surer hatchers and bot

wants to be off the nest frequently dur
