THI Denver Republican editorislly says: "If any foreign language is to be taught in our public schools, it should De Spanish rather than German" The rsssons it gives are that many of ths inhshitants of southern Colorado. New Mexico and AriEons are of Mexican blood. and that Spanish is is part the isnauage of the Territories. and that many of the statutes gre in that tongue. and in court proceedings require to be translated into English. The writer ssys:
 Throughout Mexico, Central Americs and South Amenca-with the exception of Brall-the prevailing Ian guage is Spanish. SpsnMh is spoken by larger number of people thas any other civilized language except English.
 This is especially true of southern Ari- sona, where the population .a largely made up of Spanish speaking people. most of whom are ignorant of the mer-
 est rudiments of the English tongue. But aside from this the oontiguity of American snd Mexican States, between whom social and commercial intercourse is being yearly if not daily augmented makes 1t almost imperative that the spanish language should st least bs taught in the border states and tsrri- tories. The assertion that foreigners coming to this country must learn the language of the land of their adoption. is sound in principles 60 far ss Ii re- lsates 10 Europeans. but it is not sp- plicsbls to our southern nsighbors, whose very nesrness to and close rels- tionship, whose mutual trade interests and daily associations makes. to ssy ihe least, c commercial knewledse of thsir language sn almost absolute necss sito. That it is not taught in the pub lie schools of Tucson is to be regretted and ws sincerely hope that the trustees of the district will give these sugs es- tions the consideration they deserve.

Hypocrisy of a Love Token.

81 have become hopeless cynic
from my thirteen years. experience
as a jeWeler," said the foreman of a
leading firm. 81 have learned that
so much is tinsel that shines as gold
that L can only look on the worlds
splendor as clinquant, hollow sham.
Even when the genuine glittering
gold, plucked from the bowels of rich
PotOsi and set with gems of purest
ray serene, adorns fair throat, or
rounded arm. or tapering finger, it
only produces a sentiment of scorn
for the hypocrisy of human nature.
"Let me illustrate 1t has been
for some time favOrite fad with the
young men in society when one be-
comes engaged to present mis- fiancee
with a jeweled bracelet, which the
joweler rivets on the wrist so that it
cannot be slipped off, This is sup
posed to be token of the eternal
bondage of the wearer to the donor
and a perpetual reminder of fidelity.
But in day or two the young lady
receives a note from the jeweler re-
questing her to call. When she does
so she is shown secret spring where
by she can put aside the bond at
will" "And 1 have Observed" adj
ded the jeweIer, "that although the
fair lady protests against making use

Jehan of the same pattern as that of
his wife. He built this wonderful
tomb and buried his wife in it. Af-
terward he was buried by her side.
Around the cenOtaph is guard or
fence some six feet high of open lat
tice work of alabaster, of most deli
cate workmanship, representing
vines and flowers.
Inside of this enclosure we sat
leaning against the tomb, and John
gave an octave of tones, skipping one
and then descending slowIy-these
were echoed with supernatural pre-
cision-the notes were caught and
swelled till they would ring, and
then died like far off sigh. A deep
bass note was sent back in terrible
musical grOan, and then would melt
into dying wall. We could not
give "a note in SO low tone that il
ume. We tried them so low that
we could scarcely hear each other,
though not four feet apart. yet they
would swell until they would fill the
chamber and come back to US louder
by far than we at first heard them.
The echo lasts far too long to make
any recitation or any song effective.
A single musical tone rises and dies
away, taking many seconds to die
out. We found that a pure round
note made greatly more prolonged
echo than harsh one. [ had no adj
miration for the character of Montaz,
she was cruel and crafty but after
listening to those sweet echoes, [ al.

reverently upon her beir. Art for a
moment sanctified the woman.

Prepared for the CAPITALISTS.

Are you getting ready for that
excursion Of eastern capitalists which
is coming here when the railroad is
completed ?" asked a prominent citi-
Zen Of a new KANSAS town of the
mayor.
"Oh, yes. We've made arrange
ments with Metropolis City to bor-
row its county seat for the day, and
will move it down."
"That's good. Anything else ?"
"Tes; each merchant is going to
put up fifty packages which will
look as if they contained sugar, and
the farmers will be going out of the
stores with them all day."
Fifty packages won't last"
But they'll keep sneaking them
around in the back door again when
the capitalists aren't looking. We
! propose to sell each bundle twenty
times. Then we're going to have two
brass bands, and the railroad COM
pany will side track couple of
freight trains here all day, and Pm
having the creek damned up two
miles above here, and just before
they come Well cut the dam and let
! her howl all day and call her a river,
and I'm going to salt the town we'll
with barrel of kerosene, and have
an expert smelling of it and talking
loud about natural gas, and then
there'll be two or three men run over
with teams, and lot more will be
going around and looking awful deep
and sticking stakes around for new
buildings, and everything will boom
proportionately all day. Oh, you

luctant dollar from the pocket of the

all the other water power of the conn.
try combined. The land secured by
the company is two miles and half
above the falls, and beyond the linn
Its OF the Government Park land
surrounding them. The tunnel is
run under the streets of Niagara VIII
lage, and all of the conduits will be
located on the company's land. The
estimated cost of construction is
S3,OOO,O00, and enough patronage has
already been secured, it is said, to
pay dividend on the Investment.
The City of Buffalo has agreed to
pay SlO0,O per annum for power for
electric lights and an electric smeIt.
ing company in Cleveland has made
application for 10000 horse.power to
be carried through wires. The mills
are to be located so far above the falls
that vessels of any draft can colne to
the Wharyes, thus insuring cheap
water freights from the mills to tide
water. 1t is claimed that the volume
Of water over the falls will not be
Iessened by the construction of the
tunnel; ; that the beauty of the land
scape will not be impaired in any
way, since the mills will give forth
no smoke, and that the drain from
the river will be less than half the
amount taken from the lakes by
evaporation.
If the project proves to be success
1T is also intended to use the power
in lighting many of the larger cities

10 Harness up the Niagara.

If the plans of the Niagara River
Hydraulic Tunnel, Power and Sewer
company are carried out as arranged
at the present time, the mighty
power of the Falls of Niagara will
be utilized for the general benefit OF
mankind and for the financial en-
richment of the stockholders in the
enterprise. The company was in
cOrpOrated by an act of the LegiSla-
ture in March, 1886. and since time
the efforts Of the projectors have been
directed toward securing the capital
necessary to enable them to execute
their designs. 1t is now claimed that
enough money has been secured ana
that the work of construction will
begin in July. The prospectus issued
by the company yesterday states that
the company was organized for the
purpose of utilizing the power of the
Niagara river by constructing a sub
terranean tunnel from the water level
below the falls, about 200 feet under
the high bank Of the river, extending
through the rock to the upper Mag
ara river at point about one mile
above the falls, where a head of 100
feet is obtained. The tunnel is then
to extend, parallel with the shore of
the river one and One-half miles, at
an average depth of 100 feet below
the surface of the earth and at dis
tance of ABOUT 400 feet from the
naYigable water of the river, with
which it is to be connected by means
of cOndults or laternal tunnels.
The scheme is one of gigantic pro-
portions, and includes the establish
ments of innumerable mills at the
point where the power is obtained
as well as distributing the power
| through electric wires to other CEN
ters, where it can be used in lieu of
steam or local water power. The
power is TO be obtained from the con-
duits leading to the main tunnel, and
not from the tunnel itself or from the
falls. The conduitS will, it is con.
templated, lead to wells sunk to the
| tunnel 100 feet below the earth's sur.
| face. In these wells will be placed
turbine wheels, which are turned by
! the weight of the water in the wells.
Thus, it is said, the power will be
uniform, because the wells will al
ways be kept full, and as the wells
are supplied from the river there will
be no variation in the quantity of the
water available. The river itself be-
ing fed from the FIVE great lakes, will
always have a uniform quantity from
which to supply the conduits. 1t is
claimed that the drain from the river
by the conduitS and tunnel will not
take / per cent. of the water in the
stream that is the depth of the river

prospectus states that since the incol
