What Is sweeter than roses
That &soom in the beauty of June
Or the stately and fragrant lilies
Whose bellies ring a summer tune
All, sweeter the roses blowing
On the cheeks Of those we love.
And thelily Of health that's glowing
The cheeks red rose above.
But how he lily and rose wither in
the faces Of our American women.
Why is IL? Simply because so many
of them are victims Of weakness, ir-
Irregularities, and functional derange-
ments incidental to the sex. If they
would use DR.. Pierce's FavoIite Pre-
seriptiou all these beauty and health
destroying ailments might be warded
of and we would hear less about wo-
men growing old before their time.

R. hall and headed by the Flagstaff Cornet Band and followed by the Sons of Veterans, Women's Relief Corps and citizens generally, marched to the Wood hall, where the exercises of the day were commenced. Commander Hoxworth was master of ceremonies, and L. L. Burns, officer of the day. They both showed that they were excellent and appropriate persons to conduct the exercises. The cere- monies opened with singing by the choir which was followed by the opening prayer by Rev. N.LGuthrie. Then the reading of the usual Decoration day orders, which was followed by Hon. ". c. Stewart, orator of the day (below we publish his speech in fulD and Col. T. J. Thorp, who made eloquent and pleasing addresses.

THE Government holds Paymaster Wham responsible for the loss of the S29,0 ,000 taken from him by the highwaymen, and unless he is relieved by Congress he will be forced to make the loss good. Inasmuch as he used necessary precautions and made such gallant fight against large odds, it is more than probable that our national lawmakers will shoulder the loss upon the govern ment. It would be no more than proper.

The Growers Scored.

Under the head of "Whiners and
kickers," Captain Townsend of the
Homer Index says: In all places
there are men who pretend to see
signs of storm in a clear sky. They
look upon the dark side Of every
thing, and are therefore most mis-
erable, therefore the happiest, when
they can conjure up some dismal
bugbear. They are the poison and
bane of a camp. Instead of getting
out and rustling, and making an
effort to lift themselves out of the
doidrums, they whine around like
a hound with the collie, bemoaning
their own merited fate and damn
ing the luck of everybody else. The
barnyard Of hell is full of such cat
tie. They are not worth roasting.
If they don't like camp, make a
bonfire of your personal plumber.
if you have any, to light yourself
out of it. you can't be a white
man, get as near to the color as
YOU can.

obliged to do, to the visiting evangel-
ist, whom we felt had no message for

sorrow and disaster to our cause.
I feel deeply in this matter, and
personally cannot reconcile it to
my conscience to 60 on in this or
ganization, whatever you as a body
may decide to do. Even if my
health would permit further work,
without long rest, l should feel
it my duty to withdraw.
I hope this question will be thor
oughly and exhaustively discussed
this afternoon, and that every men,
Der will express his or her opinion
freely, within, of course, the limits
of decorous discussion, according
to parliamentary rules. Then we
can deliberately and understand
ingly decide what we can do. and
each be satisfied with the result,
whatever it may prove to be-as
the judgment OF the majority may
decide. After full ventilation of
the subject under discussion, we
will take a vote upon it. The ques-
ton is now before you and remarks
are in order. The secretary will
take full notes, that the minutes
may give an accurate account of
the meeting, which, if necessary to
explain our situation, can be sub
mitted to our territorial president"
A general discussion followed the
presidents address, and the unani-
nous opinion was that the society
could do better work if it withdrew
from the Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union organization and
become an independent society de-
voted to local work. After full |
debate upon the subject in oil its
bearings a vote was taken, which
resulted in deciding to remain no
longer an auxiliary to the w. C. T. U.
A committee was appointed to draft
q new constitution, and after many
pleasant exchanges of friendly talk
adieus were spoken, and the meet
ing adjourned subject to the call of

A MISNEAPoL1s journal has Sc
cured the experiences of residents
of Dakota concerning the unusual
phenomena attending the recent
severe storm in that territory. A
gentleman living near Huron is re-
sponsible for the following: The
stoves in the houses were so charged
with electricity that we could hardly
endure the shock that came from
contact with them. If you touched
your finger to chandelier, a spark
came from it with a cracking noise.
Electrical phenomena of a remark
able character were reported on all
sides. The air was full of the elec-
trio fluid. A gentleman who lives
near Huron told me that barbed-
wire fence on his farm became so
charged with electricity that one
day when broke, and one end struck
the dry grass on the ground, the
grass at once took fire." The mar
rator does not vouch for the truth
Of this story but says it was told
him for fact. A representative Of
the Scientific Amerisan, studying
the nature of the winds at Huron,
and the electrical phenomena which
them, advanced the
idea that the atmosphere was so
charged with electricy that it only
lacked two or three degrees of pro-
ducing spontaneous combustion.
However near the truth that may
be, it seemed that all over the ter
ritory there was enough electricity
in the air to help along the fires
that were burning there some weeks
ago

He said: Gentlemen of the jury,
Charging a jury is new business to
me, as this is my first case. You
have heard all the evidence as we'll
as myself; you have also heard
what the learned counsel have said.
If you believe what the counsel for
the plaintiff has told you, your ver-
dict will be for the plaintiff. If on
the other hand, you believe what
the DEFENDANTS counsel has told
you, you will render verdict for
the defendant. But if you are like
me and don't believe what any of
them have said, then I'll be d-d
if know what you will do. Con-
stable H., take charge of the jury"

ity that with two such black eyes a
man should present himself before
the National Democratic Con-
vention as candidate for Vice
President, which, nevertheless, he
did. Yet he was nominated for
President by that convention. and
elected. Three years before Zach
ary Taylor was nominated as the
Whig candidate for President he
was an unheralded army officer on
frontier duty and undreamed of in
connection with the Presidency.
In 1852, when Franklin Pierce walk
ed off with the Democratic nomina-
tion against Cass, Marcy, Buchan-
an, Dickinson and dozen we'll
known possibilities. his name had
never been heard of in National af-
fairs, and he was a stranger even to
the politics of New Hampshire,
from which he had withdrawn him
self years before. Three years be-
fore Mr.. Lincoln was nominated for
President he was an obscure lawyer
in Springfield, Ill. In 1872 party
of newspaper editors who thought
they had the situation beneath the
crowns of their hats, and who did
exercise great weight at the mo-
ment, agreed to admit Whitelaw
Reid to their round-table confer
ences because they needed the New
York Tribune and regarded the
suggestion of the name of Horace
Greeley as the merest joke. Three
years before Mr.. Garfield was NOM
mated for President a great Repub-
lican journalist reprimanded his
Chicago correspondent for intimat-
ing the likelihood Of such result.
Three years before Cleveland's NOM
ination his name had not travelled
fifty miles away from the city in
which he lived, and who, three years
ago when Benjamin Harrison lost
a seat in the Senate he had not dis
tinguished, would have ventured
the prediction that he would pass
over the heads of Blaine, Sherman,
Allison and the rest and become
President of the United States?
Facts like these battle all calcula-

A LATE dispatch from Kansas
City gives an account of q large
cave discovered near the Hermosa
mining camp, sixty miles from Las
Cruces, New Mexico, which has
been opened up and its interior
found lined with veins of almost
pure silver. It had for years es-
capped the eyes of old prospectors
because there was nothing about
the cave to indicate mineral. It is
now thought the cave will exceed in
richness the famous Bridal Cham
Der cave in Snake Valley, N. NJ,
from which over $500 900 in silver
was taken out.

Child. Marriage in India.

The iniquity Of the system of
child-marriage which still prevails
in India was recently exposed in a
Bombay court. A man Of forty
seven was charged with cruelty to
his wife, whose age was only nine.
He had beaten her and threatened
to kill her if she failed to undo a
knot in his hair within five days.
In the course of the evidence it
came out that the father of the
