During the school year ending June 50, 1888, 1S5 children were enrolled in the schools oi Giila county. The sum of 6, ,52025 was expended for teachers salaries, and the total cost of maintain ing tho eight sohoals in the county fer the average of i2 months was A,609.- S6, or S249l per capita for lS5 ehil- dren enrolled, but large per cent of that number did not feed the mind within that literary realm, and whlle that is the case. and money expended for the tuition of children who receive no benefit from the eflulgence of that temple Of learning where the young idea is ceaxed to expand, the legisla- ture should enact as a s,ne qua non that compulsory attendance should follow taxation fnr school purposes, or else the system be abandoned.
 In i649 in Massachusetts, 8 law was passed requiring every township to maintain a free school and every town of enc hundred families a grammar school capable of fitting youths for the university As thls was aDout the tune Connecticut introduced tha stocks and ducking stool tor the correction of adults, it's not supposed that Yan- kee parents indulged their children in running tho school or listened to winning complaints of urchins con eernlng teachers who had restrained them from throwing spitballs at youth ful travellers, who, liko themselves, were climbing the hlll of science. The success of tbe public school system iu the Yankee Statc2, where It first took root and fructided in Amsrien, IS at tributable to the determination of par tnts not to obiiterato the record hy asking the podagoEue to spare ,he red upon their erdag children, as has of ten been the case Tn Globe, or more frequently cause . fit of tue sulks n tbe parent and 8 withdrawal of ch!l- dren fgcm school.
 There is one grammar and eight primary schools ia this county, and twelve teachers were employed last term at au average monthly salary ol $37.5o for males and $50 for females. One district (No. 5 has lapssd by reason of not maintaining school for five months. Two petitions are on file with the County Superintendent for the formation of two new districts, one On the north side of Salt river, and the other in the Sierra Anehas. The total rsseipts for the yaa, derived from Territorial and County taxes, fines, etc, amounted to the sum of S4,9501O The valuation Of school property in the county i5 estimated at S, ,9g7.

Very little rain had fallen in hls section, but tho range is in good shape. About year ago Mir. Medlor brought out from Missouri two carloads oi Thoroughbred and high grade Short horn cattle. He informed us that these cattle are doing splandidly. They have never had any feed other then that secured by granng on the open range, and keep in as gcod con '9itien ns the native cattle.

INDlAN SCARE.

Within the past few days rumors'of perlls have thlckened fast and multi piled from lip to lip, filing boundless sracs with the tsrribisnews of an out break of Agency Indians from San Carlos, which caused startled hearts to beat tattos on resounding ribs. And now that truth has oyertaken and sub- dued flying rumors, fear of hfe's light being suddenly snuffed out has de, parted, smile has taken the place of tear.
 "Wednesday night an Indian agrI- cultural camp, upon the Gila, not far from Camp Thomas, was fired into, and upon learning the fact troops were immediately dispatched from San Carlos and Fort Thomas in the hope of capturing the raiders The fact of the first fight having occurred en the the San Carlos, twelve miles from its mouth, shows that the belligerents are yeering to ths east instead of the west, as reported, and as we are informed there is but little fear at the Agency that raiders will go beyond external lines of the reservation. The bands at war are reported as Chilehigueno's and Casador's.
 The War Department was wired, July Both, from San Carlos, that Cap tam Lee, l0ih Cavalry, with troop and scouts, was sent up the San Carlos to dislodgs three Indians who had taken refuge in ths rocks and resisted arrest. Upon the arrival Of the Captain at the designated place, he discovered that the Indians had fled. Scouts and hsrders while drylBg agency cattle to their grazing ground, fifteen miles from tbe Agency buildings, were at- tackled by Indians. The herders aban- dened the stock, and sought safety m flight. The reported killing of a teamster on the Globo and San Carlos road, after investigation, is diseredited.
 The following official statement will show that the disturbance at the res eryation is simply an Indian quarrel in which the whites have taken no part:
 SAx CARLOS, Aug. 2.

HACKNEY, Glsbe. e.-Ths trouble here with lndiangls the result oi family quarrel Eight or nine h. dians, men, ars absent from their bands on the San Carlos river, but whether or not they are absent from the reservation, 1 am unable te say.

A Blind Fisherman.

A little higher up, two barna cles are
grown fast TO the stem, with their
arms spread out in the water. What
does he do with the long, hairy arms?
II we watch him for a few moments,
we see the arms suddenly pulled en-
tirely in-they shut up just as you
close your hand by folding your fingers
together. In another instant the arms
are put forth again. and make a grasp
ing or clutching movement in the
water, after which they are again
Withdrawn. So the barnacle goes on,
continually grasping in the wator, and.
of course, you have guessed what he is
doing. Yes, he is fishing-he is try
ing to make meal OF the microscopic
creatures which are swimming about
in the water. You see, the barna-
Gle is grown fast at one end to
the sea.weed, so that he can not swim
about in pursuit of his tiny prey. He
must wait for the unlucky little fell
lows to come within his reach. And
as he is stone-blind, having no eyes, he
can not keep watch, so as TO throw his
net at just the right moment; he has
to keep grasping away at hap-hazard.
and be content if he makes a catch
only now and then. But woe betide
the little shrimp or worm that is I'M
wary enough to come within reach!
The long arms instantly close on it. it
is dragged down into the terrible jaws,
torn to pieces and eaten. And then
the lucky fisherman begins to throw
his deadly net again. -Edm,md Wilson,
in 50. Nicholas.

THE SOUL OF HONOR.

Reputation Worth Striving for and
Briilt Up of Little Things.
There is a certain quality Of the
moral nature which is called honor.
The dictionary defines it as "true
lobleness of mind, springing from
probity, principle, or moral rectitude, !"
and calls it "a distinguishing char
acteristic Of good men, Such quail
" win bear thinking about a little.
The other day a certain wealthy
gentleman, speaking of a young man
in his employ said: Il would trust
him with every dollar l possess. He
is the soul of honor
These are not idle words, for knew
ne was in the habit of confding to
that young man large business inter-
ests which involved a great deal of
capital, / knew, too, that he had no
security for his money, for. as he said.
he simply trusted him"
Once in large boys school a dis
turbance occurred which involved
nearly a whole class. The master
sent for the principal of the school.
He entered the room and listened to
the teacher'S account of the trouble;
then glancing around at the pupils he
