The past winter, according to the
statement Of the oldest inhabitant'
has been one Of the wettest known
in Arizona, since the time to which
the memory Of man runneth not to
the contrary, and the proverbial
prophet prophesies that the coming
season will cause the hearts of
stockmen, agriculturists and all
others to rejoice and be exceeding
glad.

Captain Hogue started Monday
morning at nine o'clock to come
from FL Tule to st. Johns, a dis
lance of twelve miles, on horse
back. Such was the severity of Il e
storm and so binding the snow,
that landmarks were at times OBJ
liberated, and he did not reach town
until dark afoot, leading his horse.
Some younger men, with less STAN
ina and determination than the
Captain, would have succumbed to
the blizzard and become a cold
corpse. w

st. Johns has virtually been cut
off from the outside world since
last Saturday, so far as the mails
are concerned. a fortuitous com
bination of unpropitious circum-
stances initiate against us, and we
are in the twilight of uncertainty
as to what is going on. The rail
roads are demoralized by reason of
a strike of their employees, but to

The Elswick breech-loading rifed
cannon weighs 10 tons; the diam

hurls projectile of 1900 pounds,
and uses habitually $50 pounds OF
powder at discharge. This gives

She Knew How it Would Turn Out.

The Mobile Times is giving some
interesting information in regard
to Mobile society. It SAYS: A
"tacky" lady of this city, who has
OF late years become rich, not only
endeavors to be the fine lady in the
matter Of dress, but also in spite of
her inability to read, ostentatiously
affects literary taste. Calling
upon a lady whom she had been
trying to make herself acquainted
with, she picked up book from
the table, and innocent of any
knowledge that it was copy of the
Bible, asked the loan of it for a
little time, as "she had not the hook
in her library" The lady readily
consented. After keeping it about
a fortnight her visitor returned the
volume with profuse thanks. "How
did you like it?" was asked "Verv
we'll, indeed; but l knew how It
would turn out before l was half
through. They got married after
all"

THE SOLDIER AS A CITIZEN.

Carlyle spoke of the soldier as
the only positive figure in our civ
ilization.
The genuine soldier is patriot
and a good citizen. If he is the
first in war he is also the first in
peace. The brave men who fight
each other at the call of duty are
the most forgiving and forbearing
when the war is over. When an
issue is dead they are the last to
revive it. They may be fierce in
enforcing the arbitrament of the
sword. but they stand by it in good
faith. When our war ended Grant
and Lee and their followers ceased
to be enemies. The passions of the
struggle survived only in the hearts
of those who remained in the rear
during the fight.
The speeches of Sickles, Long
street, Gordon and Beaver at the
Gettysburg reunion all have the
ring of patriotism and nationalism.
General Beaver summed up the
past and present in golden words
when he said:
son our side the war was one of
principles, of abstract ideas largely.
On your side we admit, with your
views of what was to be expected
in the future, your property rights
and private interests were directly
involved, and hence the more in
tense feeling and ardor which you
displayed. You, as honorable men,
have stood by and are bound to
stand by the decision. We, as hon
orable men, are bound to see to it,
that that decision is respected and
that you shall not be called upon
to admit more or to promise more
than is involved in the decision.
Upon this platform we meet here
to-day; upon this platform we
stand as citizens of a common
country. In standing upon it we
claim no superiority over you; you
admit no inferiority to u.s."
There is no bloody shirt nonsense
lurking between the lines of this
speech. These are the words of
brave soldier taking to other brave
soldiers who met him in the shock
of battle quarter of a century ago.
Give us the soldier first, last and
all the time! The best friends of
the south since the war have been
the northern veterans. The south's
best workers, developers and wisest
oounsellors have been the men who
wore the gray.
The Gettysburg reunion will
teach the bloody shirt party les
son, and, if we have few hotheads
down this way who have forgotten
that the war is over, they, too, will
yield to the mild and pacific infu-
ence of the occasion.
Our old soldiers did the work of
giants in the war, and now they are
bringing their career to a, happy
climax by doing the work of giants
in peace.-AtlaEta Constitution.

tality of the protective committee of the Women's
Educational and Industrial union to recover sums

the plaintiffs case was conducted by Boston's one

eral disposition in the public mind to Judge all wo-
men by one, gives Importance to the ability of in

much to be said on both Sides Miss Robinson
kept her points steadily in view, brought out her

A REFORMAT0RY.

The following preamble and resolutions were
adopted by the Prisoners Friend committee OF the
Little Rock City Mission and Tract society at a

Whereas The statutes of Arkansas do not re-
cognize children under Il years of age as amenable
to the law and were it otherwise, there is no place
provided for juvenile offenders; and
Whereas, There are now in the penitentiary
more that fifty boys between u and 20 years of
age, fifteen of them being under 16; who are OBJ
lged to associate daily with old and hardened
criminals, learning their tricks and becoming
familiarized with crime, so that when they come
out they will be ready for any adventure that
promises pecuniary gain with better hopes than
formerly of eluding the law therefore,
Resolved, That we believe it to be the mpera-
tive duty of the state to establish, in a convenient
location with not less than eighty acres of land,
reform or farm school for juvenile offenders and
incorrgible children of both sexes, where they
may be kept, instructed and trained to habits of
industry and honesty till of age, or till such time
as they may be safely released.
= Resolved, That we believe that every penal sys-
TEN should have for it's object the reform as well
as punishment of the offender, and that our pres
ent system seems entirely defective in this respect
Resolved, That we believe that the state should
employ prison inspector, who shall also be
charged with the duty of aiding discharged pris-
oners in getting employment and in making new
start in honest life; that he should give his whole
time to the work. be supplied with means by the
state, and be properly accountable for the dis
charge of his duties.

know how she passed the time in the country with
her old father.
"Well--we read, !" answered madernoiselle
"What do you read?'
"Chiefy, The Autocrat of the Breakfast Table"
"Don't you get very tired of it?'
"Oh, no. When we get to the end we simply
turn backt to the beginning
The old gentleman chucked and made a remark
implying that the Autocrat was no great thing
among books, and mademoiselle was rather sur
prised at his disparaging air After dinner she
demanded of her hostess the name of thevery I'M
appreciatiYe old gentleman, and was told it was

MRS. BRYAN WALLER PROCTOR.

MRS. BRYAN WALLER PROCTOR.
In Mrs. Proctor, who died Monday, March 5,
1888, passed away almost the last of those per-
sonally acquainted with the brilliant group of
poets who made the first quarter of the century
an epoch in English literature BY her mothers
marriage with Basil Montagd she was brought,
when quite child, into contact with Lamb and
Coleridge, Keats and Leigh Hunt, and other men
who frequented the house of the editor of Bacon,
and she speedily learned to hold her own among
the wits, her mastery and clear intellect early as
serting itself. By her own marriage with Barry
Cornwall, whose Mirandoa had three yedrs before
stirred the town, with Macready in the title part
and Charles Kemble as Guido, she cemented her
connection with the world of letters, and became
the close friend of a younger generation : of
Thackeray and Dickens, the Laureate and Mr..
Browning. She survived to be looked up to with
respect and curiosity by a third generation, to
whom the friends of her youth were English clas
sizes, quietis ascrpti ordinibEs Deorum. Not that
Mrs. Proctor was at all mere depository of rem
iniscences. She took keen interest in the topics
of the day. and her talk was admirable both for
what she said and the way in which she SAID it.
She held strong views of her own on most subjects
and about most people, and often hersexpresson
of them was more emphatic than cautious, and
this earned her reputation for bitterness she did
not deserve, for she was essentially kind hearted.
She was deeply hurt by the way in which Carlyle
spoke of herin his "reminiscences, and replied in
somewhat illconsidered fashion. She was less
reasonably annoyed by Thackeray's references to
her in the letters lately published and her equa-
ninity was sadly disturbed by Dr. Wendell
Holmes's ungallant comparison Of her to tough
old macaw."
She had long and, on the whole, wonderfully
happy life, which she enjoyed to the full-and her
capacity for enjoyment was,great. Her last years
were saddened by the loss of the daughter who
had been her constant companion. Yet it may be
said that almost the only blessing denied to her
was euthanasia. Her wonderful vitality made her
Illness heightened and painful.
Mrs! Proctor had at one time written down a
number of recollections of the emipent men she
had known, but she was so shocked by the post
humous publication of Carlyles "reminiscences
that she is believed to have destroyed her diaries
as well as the letters in her possessions Thack-
eray's letters to her, which were numerous and in
teresting, she is understood to have handed over
to Mr.. George Smith, Athen@um. Z
