The Brooklyn Eagle reports a
theatrical manager as saying:
don't know whether you know it or
not, but nearly every prominent star,
and many of the most successful thea
ters. are not run py the men whose
names are printed as managers, half so
much as by some quiet individual who
holds the position of the power be-
hind the throne, and who is not gen.
orally known to the public as the head
of the firm" So it is with nearly all
commercial. and political enterprises.

IvaIry in the Dinner Business.


 The most careful of adiusters was the Italian whom saw in the great Wash ingtOn market. He was going from stall to stall, literally nOSing out bar gains in fish, fowl and vegetables. His sense of smell was his guide in making purchases. He sought things that were not yet in decay, but would be on the morrow. In that way Inc secured very low prices. The articles which he bought at half rates, or still lower, were those which the dealer would have lost all together if not sold thas day. The iuantities purchased were consider able. and l was curious tO knOw what was tO b. done with them.
 He is the caterer for one of the table d'hOte dinners, sad the butcher of whom l inquired They buy mighty close, these fellows. They cant be fooled in the least They can tell ny smiling at a turkey that It isn't tainted yet, out will be in few hours; and having bought the fowl at a fraction of the market price for prime best, they get it cooked and down the thrOatS of their customers before the process Of rotting has time 10 fairly begin. It is the same way with all they buy. How else could they make any mOney.'

ANOTHER WONDER.

In some sections of the northern DOT tion of Arizona the question of water supply, even for domestic purposes, IS a very serious one. This is particularly the case at Ash Fork, station on the Allan tic & Pacific railroad. A series of very lovely and fertile valleys surround the place and plenty of grass grows for the support of large herds of cattle, but no water can be had excepting from an oc- casional "tank" during the winter sea- son. At Ash Fork the railroad company attempted to sink an artesisn well, but after reaching a depth of nine hundred feet the drill became fastened and could not be removed. Many futile attempts were made to extract it. but at last 1t was abandoned in despair. All water now used at that station and by the res idents of the town IS brought by rail from Peach Springs, sixty-five miles tn the westward, and is sold at fifty cents per barrel.
 A short tune ago prospector, stimu- lated by the inquiry for water, reported that he had discovered huge well, about eight miles from Ash Fork. sunk in a level plain. Parties at once repaired thither, with ropes and other psrapher- nalia to explore the wondrous discovery. They found the locality, but to this day they do not know the exact nature ot the curious cavern that met their gaze. It is located on level plain and cannot be seen until 1t is approached very near. There is no evidence of earth or rock having been removed from the pit, winch was found to be 150 feet in diane ter and 320 feet deep, with perpendIcu- lar walls. No one in the party was brave enough to descend and explore the swell" when the rope had been lowered, and the explorers returned to Ash Fork scarcely wiser than they were before their trlp It is certainly a great curi- osity, and there possibly exists supply of water somewhere in its depths or in the numerous caverBs or tunnels that apparently immerge into the dark earth below from this curious threshold of sunlight

4 squirrel and Her Babies.


 Old citizens of Toledo distinctly re member the time when the.e was an immigration of squirrels in this vicinity. On a certain day a gentleman was on the banS of Ten Mic Creek when the number of squirrels moving was unusu- ally large. Among the squirrels was one that exhibited such mOtherly care and affection Tor her two little ones as to prove most interesting sight. She reached the bank of the q where a crossing Was Co be made The little squirrels were quite timid about going near to the water, but tho mother coaNed them until they seemed tO te satisfied to do as she wished. >he ran along the shore, and finding a p.eee OI bark about a foot long and six inches wide, dragged 1t tO the water eice and pushed it into the water SO that only small part of one end of the lark Was testing on the shore. She then induced her little one, Co get on the bark and they a' once cud- dled closely together, when the old squirrel pushed the bark and irs lold into the stream, and, taking one end of the bark m her teeth, pushed it ahead of her until the opposite bank was reached where @ young squirrels quickly scampered up the hank of the creek, where the mother rested for a few minutes, when the journey was re- sumet.

ITS a lamentabe fact that Arizona Is
 so little known or thought of by tbe bus
 mess people and capitalists of the east ern states excepting as a sort of place of re:uge of blood-thirsty Indians; as possessing a few bad mines, Gnd as a re- sort of frontier c1tthroats. It was near ly in this language that an intelligent eastern gentleman expressed his i'm prcssions of Arizona in a recent letter to friend in thIs city, and those impres- sions had been chlefy derived from read ing Tn eastern newspapers the ridicu- lous sensational yarns that originate chiefly in the questionable imagination of the alleged bunorists of the press. Just as the faults, fOIbles and errors of imperfect man are heralded broadcast by his equally miserable fellows in sin, and his many deeds of charity, benevo- lence and self denIal given no expres- sion in words of commendatioD, so d the Bohemian cOrmorants delight in culling the carion morsels from the caI- c4ss of constantly expiring 9-ents, to hold them up 10 the gaze of the world as samples of the whole. The newspapers of ArIzona teem with good and reliable data of our wondrous resources, a very insignificant portion of which ever finds its way into journals beyond the limits of the Territory. \ business failure, Indian scare, stage robbery or little blood-letting Is simultaneously noted and severely commented upon by the entire daily press Of the nation, the rat ting of whose presses doubtless pene- trates haunts of deeper-dyed vice than has yet been recorded Tn Arizona. It Is to be hoped that the labors of our new official, the Commissioner of Immigra- tioD, may do much to impart better knowledge Cf our sun-blest land in the Eastern States.

Japauc.e Fencing SIatch.


 Next came two gentlemen in mask, and wearing a costume which was mani festly that of Japanese GerQan ChOr burs hen, equipped for the ''Pawk bOden,' or fencing ground. Round their waists were broad, leather belts Ol vests: rom their girdles hung six square impenetrable lappets or plates. They wore long wooden twO-handed swOrJs such as were wielded of old by crusader knights, and such as are still used by elephant-hunters in Don gOla. Between them stood an nm pIre who made them a speech. At it they went, but at the first blow one of the warriors called or.

IS the heat of the bad feeling towards the acts of the last Legislature occa- stoned by the disappointment of this county in securing cherished favor, 1t has not become generally known that Pima county came very near losing two representatives in the next Legislature, under a new apportionment blll which was introduced late in session. The provisions of this bill gave one of Pima's representatives to MaTicops county and one to Graham county. This was done upon the very erroneous basis of the vote cast at the last election, while the organic act of the Territory provides for the apportlonment upon ratio of the population. Notwithstanding the false premises involved, the bill found many supporters and at one time 1t really looked as though its adoption was cer- tain. By shrewd manipulation and the exercise of intricate parliamentary tsc- tics, such complications were attached to tine bill that its indefinite postpone ment was secured by barely a majority vote, which leaves the next spportion- melt the same as that at the last cleo ton. Messrs. Franklin, Risley, Aram and Rollins were particularly active Tn defeating this iniquitous measure, which was opposed stubbornly by oar dslega- ton and the friends of Southern Ari- zona

NoTwITHsTANDISG the general com plaint of dull times, the merchants of Tucson, when individually questioned upon the subject, confess that but very little cause for complaint exists. Money has heretofore been acquired easily and rapidly Tn this city, and this condition was naturally supplemented by extrava- gant expenditures. As the new order of things comes about, when margins ap- proximate legitimate profits and the old spendthrift habits still cling to the merchant as the only reminiscence of former splendors, the inevitable discrep- ancy between income and outlay some times astounds him, and he lays the sin ful burden of unproftable results in trade upon the iron shoulders of "hard times" There Is much philosophy in Col. Sellers definition of misery and happiness, and it IS only que stion of a little time and q short road to actual bankruptcy when the expense account of any man or firm exceeds the net re- ceipts. In Tucson, nearly all the old, and at one time wealthy firms have passed away amid the sm ke of failures, while many more modest and ecOnomi- cal beginners have acquired g. cd finan- cial standing and business integrity. They are the ones who have no condem- nation of the times; they tell us that trade is not brisk, but 1t is good and sure, and that so long as it gets no worse, they are satisfied. The apparent stagnation is not local visitation, but 1t exists over all the nation and 1t may be properly considered the calm before the storm Of prosperity.
