Let Her Do What She Can.


Let her do what she can for humanitys sake,
Whatever the form that her service may take.
Whether high in the councils of Church or OF
State,
Or down where the outcast and suffering wait:
In the love-oircled home be il cottage or hall;
In the school, where the seed in the soft ground
may fall.
In the African Jungle far over the sea,
Or here in the land that the Lord has made free.
Let her do what she can, for the worlds pleading
wall
Rises up on the breeze, is abroad on the gale:
II her heart for the good of her fellows be stirred
Restrain not her efforts In deed or In word
Let her walk In your fellowship, brother and
friend, -.--------
Wherever your steps for humanity wend:
Turn not from the proffer Of service aside,
Let your strength 70 her wisdom and love b
allied.
Let her girdle the world with her ribbons of love-
And Lift the White Cross all its plague-spoe
above:
Let her scatter Chrisfs lesven from shore unit
shore,
Till wrong and oppression shall vex us no more.
"She hath done what she could, said the Savior 4
men,
Who scorned at the service she rendered hin
then;
''she hath done what she could" be it said Of n
all,
When the curtain Of silence shall over us fan.

Mr. Cleveland, in hls letter accep- ting the Democratic Presidential nom ination, intimated that he was opposed to a second term, on the ground that "the eligibility of the President for reelection is a most serious danger to that calm, deliberate and intelligent political action which must character lze a government by the people" This would be a good time for Mr. Cleve- land to define his position on this question. Has he changed his mind on this matter, or have tie joys of office proven too seductive to be re- llnquiShed voluntarily? If Cleveland should do as Blaine has done, and withdraw his name from the list of possible candidates, there would be a new deal in the Democratic as there will Ge in the Republican party, and tue canvass would be made decidedly novel and interesting.-Globe-D Ocrat.

The Fourteen Mistakes of life.
Wives and Daughters. 1

W " Co tS4ANA 4)GsuS
 Somebody has condensed the mis- takes of life, and arrived at the con- clusion that there are fourteen of them. Most people would say, if they told the truth, that there was no limit to the mistakes of life; that they were like the drops in the ocean or the sands on tue shore in number; but 1t IS well to be accurate. Here, then, are fourteen great mistakes; It Is a great mistake to set up our own standard of right and wrong, and judge people accordingly; to measure the enjoy ment of others by our own; to expect uniformity of opinion in this world |; to look for judgment and experience in youth; to endeavor to mould all dispositions alike; not to yield to i'm material trife8; to look for perfection in our own actions; to worry ourselves and others with what cannot be rem edied; not to alleviate all that needs alleviation as far as lies in our power; not to make allowances for the mfr mites of others; to consider every thing impossible that we cannot per form; to believe only what our finite minds can grasp; to expect to be able to understand everything. The great est of mistakes is to live for time alone, which any moment may launch us into eternity.

Rich Mems Beginnings.
[From the Chicago News. ]


 Instances of lowly beginning are not rare in the list of Chicago million aires. J. w. Doane, the President of the Merchants Loan and Trust Com pany, began hls commercial career in Chicago a very small dealer in pea nuts. W. N. Hoyt, the wholesale gro- cer and founder of the immense tea trade between Chicago and China, in his youth kept a little apple stand at the door of the old Richmond Hotel on Lake street. L. J. Cages first work was as a carpenter Tn his father s box factory on the West Side. The Libby Bros, the immensely rich pack CTS, started as working butchers. Jacob Rosenburg, the capitalist, and Levi Rosenfeld, who died last summer, whose great fortunes were largely in creased by their share in the $11, ,000,- 900 estate, were both peddlers and earned packs about the surrounding country. H. A. Kohn, the head of the big wholesale clothing house on Frank lin street, was also a peddler. N. K. Fairbank boasts that he can lay d brick now as well as in his youth, when he wol ked as a mason. c. H. Mccormick and Leander J. Mccormick were foundrymen. The first shop they owned was a small shed on North Water street, east of Rush. B. P. Hutchinson earned hls youthful wages as shoemaker. Nelson Morris blacked boots and did chores around a small inn in the cid Sherman Stock Yards. Afterward he began trading in lame hogs. c. B. Farwell's first employ ment in Chicago was as the smallest clerk in George Smiths bank on Lake street. Conrad Seipp, the millionaire brewer, was common brewery hand, and hls partner, Lehman, was car penter. Jerome Beecher, was a com mon workingman. John T. Lester was a clerk in A. c. Downs dry goods store.

Copper.

The New York Engineering and Mining Journal says: It is understood that the syndicate now controls the entire Arizona output, except that of the Detroit Company, and that it is all to be exported. It is also understood that the Montana production is also contracted for, the Anaconda, Parrott and Boston, Montana companies hay ing come into the fold.
 Mr@Cldrk has sold to the Boston Montana parties his CoIusa Fraction and the smelting works at $175.000. The price originally asked was $300,- 900, but when the lower price was agreed upon be was allowed to have all the mine and works produced dur ing the month. This amounted, it is sad, to about 8000O0 pounds of cop per, which at present price, and con- sidering the small cost of getting it when no regard had to be paid to the future, may have compensated for the reduction Tn prlce.
 The greater part of the Montana production IS to be retained in this country. The rumorS are still cur rent that an arrangement has been eff feCted between the syndicate and the Calumet < Heela by which it will act in harmony with the syndicate. It appears also that approaches have been made to some of the manufac- turers 10 make contracts for their copper. It is understood that as an inducement to do so they are to be guaranteed steady price, which shall not exceed a certain figure.
 From the information we have re- ceived it appears probable that manu- facturers will accept some such prop osition, the guarantee against fuctua- tiOn in price being more important than the comparatively high prlces demanded. Those who do not come in will, of course, stand chance of being punished, though some of the Lake companies still retain, and, it is said, will continue to retain absolute independence.

Condensed from Our Exchanges for

The Clarion reports seven cases of scarlet fever of a mild type, in Clifton.
 A Tombstone school girl, in her composition, gives the principal indus tries of that place as mining and saloon keeping.
 The Benson Mining & Smelling company's works are advertised to be sold March 9th, under an execution for the sum of S871 IS.
 The Board of Supervisors of Gra- ham county has contracted with the Clarion to print 5000 copies of 8 pamphlet to be entitled the Resources of Graham County"
 It would seem as though Phenix had all the newspapers now that 1t can well support, nevertheless it is announced that J. o. Dunbar will shy his castor into the journalist ring. The new paper is to be called the Ari- zona Leader.
 The Wilcox Stockman says that the Tombstone Stockgrowers' Association has appealed to the county supervi4 sors to have the valuation of cattle for assessment reduced from SIP to S10, and the Board will recommend the Territorial Board of Equalization to make the reduction.
 Upon the complaint of H. W. Has, elgren, cattleman on the San Pedro, Justice Shearer has issued warrants for the arrest of John s. Robbins, of the Whltbeck Cattle Company, and Mcdonald, hls foreman, who are ac- cused of unlawfully branding stock: The warrants were placed in the hands of Constable James, who at once started for the companys ranch near the Sonora lrne.-Tombstone Pros pector.
 A Bi8bee correspondent of the Tombstone ProspectOr says that is a bad camp for miners to come to. There are now between thirty and for ty idle men in the camp. Miners re- ceive 8 per day; pay S7 per week for board; S to S6 per month for a cabin; S1 50 for doctors fees, and with other items a mans expenses will aggregate $50.

The Las Vegas Optic asserts that the town hearse has only been called into use once in eight months, and that with the exception of the unfor- tunate individual whom 1t bore to his last resting place, all persons who died there during that time were visitors whose remains were shipped East. This certainly shows remarkable ten acity of life on the part of the native population, but Is discouraging to would-be immigrants, as their chances of becoming acclimatized before being called upon to pass in their checks would appear to be very slender in deed What puzzles the reader of this Item in the Optic is how the Las Vegas man came by his death. Evi- dentlv he must have tackled native who had been of on a jaunt, under the mlsapprehension that he was a tenderfoot, and got It in the neck.

Chief Justice Miller, in the Ameri- can Law Review, discusses jury re- form. He sees no advantage 1n aboI- ishing the system, but he objects to the inherited idea that there must be unanimity to procure decisicn in a trial. He thinks that in civil suits nine jurors might render legal yer dict. There is common sense Tn this proposition, and the chances for jus tice would not be lessened by its adop- ton. It gets around the one stubborn old fellow who gets on to so many iuries and holds out against the eleven, apparently for notoriety or from contrarety. It would be far less easy to fix juries under such a rule. But more important still is tue prop ositlon to change the method of select ing jury. At present it IS nearly impossible to secure jury of the nest intelligent to judge. Very many of the juries that decide important cases are composed of men of third rate brains and a small amount of that which people call common seuse.- Globe-Democrat.

The Manufacture Ot Aluminium.

Works for the manufacture of so- dium by the Castner process and its conversion into aluminium under the process of Mir. James Webster are now being erected by the Aluminium Com pany, of St. Mary Axe, London, at Oldbury, near Birmingham, which, it IS expected, will bring an important trade to the district. The process of sodium production, which has been invented by Mr. H. Y. Castner, New York, has already been described.
 By th1s process the cost of sodium is reduced from As. to Is. per lb., and of aluminium from 60s. to less than POS per ID. The aluminium is produced in pigs of 4 lb. weight. The same sized pig of the alloy known as aluminium bronze, copper and aluminium, weighs Il lb.-a fact which strongly illus trates the relative ightneSs of alumi- nun. Its value is further increased by its tensile strength and its non liability to oxidize. It is obvious that the manufacture of this reliable metal upon an extensive commercial scale at a much lower cost than hitherto in wolves important consequences to En- glish metallurgical 1ndustry.-Iron.

The name arte'ian as applied to wells, came from one sunk in Artols, France, and said to be the first of the kind sunk with full knowledge of the principles involved. Artesian wells are possible only in certain localities. Where there are previous strata lying between impervious beds the water will be imprisoned in pereolating through; lying upon the lowest, and rising to some point in the highest where a previous stratum brings 1t to the surface, it escapes in the form of springs, or if shaft be sunk to the lowest point the water of the whole basin will rise upward for escape, and will rise to a level corresponding to the greatest height to which the i'm prisoned strata reach.
