The Art of Advertising.

Everything nowadays is being re- duced to a science, particularly ad- vertising. How to reach the ear of the dear public is a study and an art. It is a self-evident fact that to make money in any business you must make that business public. Publicity is money. This has become to be recognized as principle in business by all wideawake men. Competition is so keen, and we live in such busy times, that a mans only chance of success lies in proclaiming the merits of his goods far and wide, up and down, and into every household. It is not sufficient, continues the Hartford Building News, to put sign over the door for people to come to look at. The dealer must keep trumpeter, useless to g" into crowd and raise a feeble wall which is drowned in the great clamor It is not sufficient to say that Smith sells clothing or Jones sells groceries, or Brown sells hard ware or Robinson sells shoes, for there are many others in the same line of business, and you must first captivate the customer in order to draw him.
 Ensign, of Hartford, probable kept no better shoes than any other dealer, but he kept poet, and thereby made a fortune. No one ever took up a Hartford paper without looking for Ensign's advertisement.
 An advertisement should not only be made attractive, but should be remembered.
 Advertisements should be attrac- tive. First captivate the eye. The eye is the sentinel of the will. Cap tivate the sentinel, and you captivate the will. The feet follow the eyes. It is the untiring, unremitted everlasting, never-take-nO-for-an-answer appeal to the eyes of the people that brings trade
 If you have frst-class goods, hit the public in the face with them, slash them over the eyes with them, stick 1t at all times and on all occasions. Make an advertisement so readable that the public must read and remem- Der it.
 An advertisement should not be commonplace nor verbose. This is a self-evident proposition to all who are gifted with that admirable felicity oi taste which discovers beauty in sim plicity.

A Pretty Action.

A newsboy took the Sixth avenue ele- vated at Park place at noon yesterday, and sliding into one of the cross seats fell asleep. At Grand street two young wo- men got on and took the seats opposite the lad. His feet were bare and his hat had fallen off. Presently the younger girl leaned over and placed her huff under the little fellows dirty cheek. An old gentleman in the next seat smiled at the act and without saying anything held out a quarter, with a nod toward the boy. The girl hesitated moment and then reached for it. The next man just as silently offered dime, woman across the aisle held out some pennies. and be fore she knew it the girl, with flaming cheeks, had taken money from every passenger in that end of the car She quietly slid the amount into the sleeping lads pocket, removed her huff gently from under his head without rousing him and got off at Twenty third street, including all the passengers in pretty little inclination of the head that seemed full of thanks and the possession of a common secret.-New York World

An uniuue form of swindling is

An unique form of swindling is re- ported from Iowa. The plan is for two men to visit some well-to-do farm CT and offer to buy his farm. A price is agreed upon and contract drawn up. Then third party appears and offers higher price for the property. When the two parties appear the farm CT does not want to sell and they f. nally consent to let him cancel hls contract to them for one half the ex- tra price he is to receive from the second buyer. The latter is called in and they all adjourn to town where the farmer pays over to the original buyers their share then all disappear leaving the farmer to wait for the second purchaser to appear. The swindle is not particularly new but in the hands of smart takers is very ef- fective.-Los Angeles Commercial Bull letiu.

Letters received here from D. M

Letters received here from D. M. Riordan. of Flagstaff, and A. G. Pen dleton announce that survey of line for the Central Arizona railroad will begin immediately, under MT. Pendle- tons direction, from the end of the railroad built by the old Mineral Belt company, to Payson, in Gila county. Without making any positive promis- es, Mr. Riordan states it as his belief that construction work will speedily follow and be energetically pushed to completion. The Central Arizona railroad as projected, will run through Globe. Its southern terminus has not yet been positively determined.-Silver Belt.

Waiting for the Railroad.

This is the idle excuse of number of mining corporations, which have good but undeveloped mining proper ties here, and are unwilling to work, sell or lease them on reasonable terms, considering the undeveloped condition of their mines. Meanwhile the rail- road is waiting for the sleepy com panies to wake up and show that they can create business for them; this is at least the usual course in other places. When the mountain refused to come to Mohamed, the prophet, the latter gentleman saw fit to go to the mountain. This moral is applicable to our case.-Silver Belt.

The Dispute Settled.

The Samoan conference is appar- ently over. All that remains to be done is the formal signing of the treaty.
 It will take the full text of the treaty and perhaps trial of its work ings to determine whether this coun- try has secured what it went after, or has achieved another of those left handed victories that have been too common in American diplomacy. It has too often happened that the Uni ted States has taken the place of the noble but unfortunate red man who was to divide the turkey and the bug gard with the white man.
 But the synopsis of the treaty cabled from Berlin indicates that za,Insrica nas won decided victory. Hearly every point for which tbe Upi ted States Uontent1ed mas been se- cared. 9SsE {. s The full control Of the islands ia given to the Samoan people them selves. The German Premier, the aI- ternating control and the triple con trol have all gone down before the American demand that the Samoans shall govern themselves. No for eigners are to be allowed in the Min istry or the Council This is notable victory when compared with the end sought by Germany when she broke up the Washington conference of 1887 and seized Malietoa. Then it was insisted that the Samoan King should be supplied with Premier by the power having the largest interests in the islands. He was to govern and the King was to be puppet in Ger man hands.
 Substantially the same plea was advanced at Berlin. Both Germany and England entered the conference with the idea that the natives were incapable of self-government. Ger many as the power having the great est immediate interest in the islands claimed the right to preponderating influence in a foreign council by which 1t would have the islands governed England agreed to this plan. Ameri- ca insisted on native control and got 1t. There is to be a king and vice king chosen by the Samoans, an up per house of the chiefs, and a lower house, natives all, elected on the basis of one representative for every 2,00C people.
 The only part that foreigners are to play is in an advisory council and a land court. The advisory council is to have one member for each of the treaty powers and the English com missioner is to act as arbitrator be- tween the German and the American The land court is to straighten out the tangle of claims by which foreigners now assert title to something like twice the area of the islands.
 Malietoa is to be returned as King but whether he is to hold permanent ly, or merely until the people car make their choice of King known, i. not made clear.
 The treaty powers are confirmed 1T the possession of the coaling sta tions now belonging to them. This set ties the possession of Pago Pago, tht best harbor in the South Pacific, il favor of America-a question whicl has probably been at the bottom o most of the German movements.
 If the treaty is not less favorabl than the synopsis indicates, the Uni ted States can congratulate itself ol having honorably fulfilled it's promis to protect the Samoans. The Govern ment will at the same time have SC cured itself an important station ol the road to Australia.-S. F. Exami ner

The Editors Visitors,

To the person who comes into our office saying, "I know you're awfully busy and I won't stay long," we desire to present the assurance of our most distinguished consideration. But to the person who comes in saying this, and then sits on the corner of our desk and thinks with his lungs by the hour, we desire to say that nothing would give us more ineffable pleasure than few of his brilliant flashes of silence, accom- panied and interspersed here and there with deep, cooling draught of his dis tinguished absence.

Too much water is frequently used in irrigating trees and plants Growth can be forced by its liberal use, but plants are often injured and the crop reduced and sometimes prevented. With trees, roots are kept too near the surface Mir Lawson has surpris- ed everyone who has seen his garden in town, with the rapid growth of everything he planted, but he is now convinced that he destroyed one row of peas by too much irrigation. The seed was obtained from the agricultur- al department, planted about two months ago and given daily at tention. They came up quickly and in seven weeks pods began to form, but the vines turned pale, produced noth- ing and have been pulled up and the ground planted with orange seed.- Chino (Cal.) Champion.

Our National Cockroaches.

Hem! hem! hem! cough! cough! coughl The hall of the house of repre- sentatives sounded like an asylum for consumptives. The senate was in execu- tive session, and the hundreds of visitors who thronged the Capitol on Saturday afternoon, being debarred from that end of the Capitol, thronged the house side. There was strange odor in the air. It tickled the nostrils and irritated the throat. As it grew stronger and stronger the crowds gathered around the big tanks of ice water and helped themselves most literally, while the ladies bought up all the caramels at the candy stand.
 The guides, usually so fluent of speech, grew husky, and finally spoke in dis iointed sentences. Everybody coughed and wondered.
 The cause of the strange odor was To- cated in the restaurant. Half a dozen employees were burning red paper by the ream, and thousands of cockroaches were succumbing to the fatal smell. The an- nual campaign of extermination was in progress. Washington Post.

How to Put It.

The earthquake of California, which is reported by the press of the Golden state to have been one of some magni tude, was not sent out by wire to the outside world, owing to the fact that California is not proud of her earth quakes and sends out nothing that she is not proud of. Arizona would do we'll to copy from her.
 When robbery or murder is com mitted it would be we'll to smother the news or send out word that trade was quite lively in the exchange business, giving the transaction in the shape of a mining sale in which silver mine was exchanged for lead property. How much better it would have sound ed when the robbery of Paymaster Wham occurred, to have telegraphed the news somewhat after this strain
 "Uncle Sam yesterday sent out a courier with guard of buffalo soldiers to make negotiations with the ranch CTS of Graham county for transfer of large amount of lead which had been offered at very low price. The emissary was entirely successful and made a quick transfer. The price paid was $29,000 and the benefits to be derived from the journey will soon be felt throughout the entire world."-- Prospector.

S5,0OO Gallons a Day.

Last evening at o'clock, as the workmen at the Sterling Silver mill were taking out the diamond drill to extract the core, flow of water fol- lowed which averages over 75, ,000 gal Ions of water per twenty-four hours. The size of the hole is + inches, but the pressure has not yet been gauged Superintendent Fisher feels very ex- uberant and will now make all haste to start the mill The flow of water comes from point S5 feet south of the bottom of the we'll, which is fifty seven feet deep, and is very clear and cool and good drinking water The pump will be kept going until the drill has been hoisted from the we'll. The Ground Hog, Vizina and other mines of the conlnany will be started up in short tine and the drilI. which han made aach splendid success, will be used in these mines to prpst3eet with Should tKis latter prove a sue <es9 fl1is camp will coon be ia a far nestef e .:ttssf hest days Holes will be sunk thickly on the hill sides and in the valleys, and an abund- ance of water and large bodies of ore will be discovered with little labor and small expense. The fact of striking a 75,OO0-gallon flow of pure water in this city means volumes to southeast ern Arizona. It demonstrates tha. water can be found almost anywhere in the granite formation in sufficient quantity for agricultural and stock raising purposes. It means hundreds of thousands of acres of land under cultivation that is now termed desert. It means better developed and conse. quently richer mining districts ard more avenues of commerce and trade. It means capital from various portions of the world and hundreds of miles of railroad running through the State of Arizona. It means wealth and happi- ness in land where sickness is rarely known, and where water only is need ed to make it's rich soil the most pro- ductive of any country. Only short time will elapse ere the Territory of Arizona will step proudly up into the ranks of its older-but not richer sisters of our Union-Epitaph.

Some Ancient Ruins.

A large party have been steadily eXcavating during the past week in the ruins of the ancient city about the Old Church. There is method in
 their madness. To facilitate the work, and at the same time effect public service in removing this unsightly pile, Dr. Shields has kindly consented to remove the debris of the excava- tions. For this purpose he has teams employed hauling the refuse to the foot of the hill, and there transforms 1t into a hard roadway, using the stones taken from the buildings in making a rock face wall to the ap- breaches of the bridge over the Arroyo.
 This gives the explorers clear field for action, and they are thus enabled to take out the relics intact as they may find them. They are working open drifts along fbe level of the streets of tho old cify which Ia sonle nine feet below the p1esent s,irface. f
