A precocious Ponckhokie boy had his photograph taken" the other day. His uncle, desiring to send one of the DOT traits to friend in England. wrote the following on slip of paper and asked the boy to copy it on the back of the DOT trait: "To Uncle -'s English friend. From little American boy" When the portrait and copy were given to the lad he shook his head and appeared dissatis fled. His mother asked him why he acted in that manner. ''I ain't going to send my picture to the English, because they came over here and taxed us on tea," was the youngsters answer.- Kingston Freeman

What Is there in this life of sufficient inducement to warrant our eternal scramble for the almighty dollar? The god of civilization is the dollar, and none other receives any homage what soever. Many good people deceive themselves into the belief that they are honestly worshiping their "un- known God" but of a truth their time and devotion is simply another form given to that autocrat of civilization, and of luxurious churches-the all mighty dollar. Would the humble Savior of mankind, should he again appear on earth, be able to recognize his own established worship? Amid the numerous schisms, each counting their thousands and thousands of worshipers; each promising differ ent thing, each demanding an ex- elusive belief from its devotees, and with them all but one common plane is ever agreed to, and that is "blind, unreasoning faith" for all, being a condition precedent to the promised heavenly bliss No doubt the Savior would exclaim, in that agony of spirit once exhibited in the garden of Gethsemane: Father of Heaven is this the result of all my earthly suffer- ings; and if so, how is it possible for all these to be true religions?" We'll might he ask the question when each different creed holds the other false and outside the pale of redemption whilst each tries, unsuccessfully, to convert the other and the result is, confusion worse confounded in its in- extricableness.-St. Johns Herald.

A case in the New Orleans, second recorders office established the fact thaf voodooism and it's disgusting rites still have d ioothold in Louisiana. For some time there has been pro- miscuous gathering of whites and blacks in a house of St. Anthony street, although in retired locality. The assemblages became so noisy that they disturbed the neighbors. At last the place became nuisance and the police were informed. The result was the police made descent on the place while the orgies were in full swing. 4 strange, disgusting sight met their eyes. In the circle formed by eight white nd six negro women and seven negro men, was a half breed Indian and d negro named Alexander, who was dressed in silken tights, perform ing the typical voodoo dance, mutter- ing weird incantation, the refrain of which was taken up by the men ard women surrounding him. The negro man lying on the floor partly clad while the women standing around a. so laid aside much of their ordinary wearing apparel when robed for the street. It was found that nearly all were white women, well dressed anG apparently respectable. They were mortified to learn that they were to be taken to the police station. When they reached there they volunteered an explanation of their presence in such an assembly and in sucb scont attire. Alexander. they said, was g voodoo. He had made many wonder ful cures and they had full confidence in his power to relieve their sufferings ,by his incantations. They stoutly in. sisted that they had received great benefit from his treatment and were confident he would effect thorough cure. The women were evidently sin cere in their statements. They were of all ages, ranging from 16 to 50, and several of them were decidedly hand | soma

Petition.

The followingis the petition address ed to the board of supervisors praying for the issue of bonds for the erection of court house, which has been sign ed by large number of the taxpay- CTS of the county:
 To the honorable board of super visors of the county of Pinal, terri tory of Arizona.
 GENTLEMEN Feeling the necessity of public improvement and progress, and for better and more commodious court house, and believing that Pinal county has long enough stood in the back ground as non-progressive, and that said county Is on the eve of an enormous increase in wealth and pop ula;ion we the undersigned taxpay- CTS of the county of Pinal do respect fully petition that your board do take the necessary and proper steps towards bonding the county of Pinal for $2O,- 900 or $30,000, or such sum as the population and property valuation of said county may empower you, under the laws of the territory of Arizona, for the purpose of building county court house and jail. We would re- spectfully submit to your honorable board that the county is already in possession of suitable site for said building.
 That the bonds can be hoated at per cent per annum at 20 years 1; That the interest on said bonds would not be more than $1200 or $1 300 per annum, portion of which might be paid by renting part of of the court house That the cells Of the present jail may be utilized in the proposed structure; That the present buildings are inadequate and the county Is com pelled to pay rental for the accommo- dation of some of the county officials ; that the county Is now expending the sum of $56 month in rentals, which expenditure would thus be saved, so that the increased expenditure per annum would be only $500 or $500 per annum, trifling increase in the amount to be raised by taxation when we take into consideration the benefits to be derived from said construction.

I sold him bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm and guaranteed that it would cure him. He came in again last night and as soon as he got inside the door, began to swing his arms over his head like an Indian club swinger. I thought the blamed fool had fit, but he final ly stopped long enough to say; "Med cine velly fine, velly fine; ale same make me feel plenty good" Chamber lain's Pain Balm is without an equal sprainss srheumatis n, aches, pains or lame back.

In conversation with a Pasadena
gentleman recently, he expressed

had taken thousands of dollars out

town nearly every young man has
q ticket IN the lottery. And all be-
canse some one won prize over
there svme months ago. The mana
gers are shrewd; when they want to
work up a certain section to introduce
their business they let some one win
a prize. then advertise il broadcast
and they find lots of people to bite
Mt their bates. Why even the reli.
eious papers advertise them. Several
years ago the Religious Telescope
said it did not believe in lotteries.
but it was, nevertheless, glad to re-
port that Rev. Mr.. Blank had won a
large prize in the Louisiana Lottery.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From our regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON d. O., Oct. 25, 1889.

WASHINGTON d. O., Oct. 20, 1889. y
The Republican leaders, with the
approach OF the opening OF the Fifty
fifth Congress, grow uneasy. For
tue first time in years they possess
the Presidency and both branches OF
the national assembly. The respon
sibility ia unavoidable. No more
talk OF the Opposition Of the Demo
cratic party in the House; no moro
talk of the "Democratic vetoes.' The
Republican. party in the coming ses-
sion must meet the issues Of the day
squarely. The revision of the tariff,
which the Senate bill Of the last sss-
sion declared to be imperative, must
be made. Appropriation forpurposes
long delayed must be levied. Quib-
bling and lying will avail little during
this session. In losing the House,
the Democratic party is fortunate,
inasmuch as it leaves its enemy with
enough rope to hang itself.
The civil service law will doubtless
remain undisturbed. There may be
considerable talk about which admin
|istration, Mr.. Cleveland's or Mr..
Harrisons, has been guilty Of the
greatest ldches regarding the law, but
the law itself will remain, though
perhaps slightly modified. The al
legged selling of copies of questions
in advance of their use in examina-
ton, will doubtless ce referred to Q
committee. There are enough men
pledged to the law in both parties to
insure it's retention.
The Blair educational bill will be
introduced early in the session by its
father, and the Senator may be de-
pended upon to push it through the
higher body. Its fate in the House
is however Of grave doubt. There
lack not men on the Republican side
in the House who regard such a bill
as not only menace to the perpetui-
ty of educational opportunities in the
South, but also as unconstitutional.
With that feeling the Democratic
minority thus assisted may kill the
measure.

A New Gloss to an Old Text.

"a Just experience tells in every soil,
That those who think must govern those
who toll"
Thus sang an old.time poet. We, to-day,
Sing the same air to some extended notes;
Our thinkers govern still, but these are they
Who daily toll, and think, and cast their
votes.
They had their Knights, Of old, gorgeous
band,
Brave in their charge to rescue ladies' fair;
We have our Knights Of Labor. hard of hand,
But braver, who for babe and mother care.
In those old days they had their Unions,
Guilds,
To lift the burden of their shaving toll.
Our Union much fairer structure builds,
In clearer light, and on freer soil.
But labor still hath rights, and fields to
gain,
As fair. as just az e'er were gained before;
And brother hearts are one in Joy, in pain.
In deathless purpose, oil the wide world

The newspapers of Connecticut are
congratulating the people upon the
workings OF the new ballot law. The
Hartford Times says Of it: 'Here in
Hartford the most obvious relief
afforded by the new law was the COM
plete abolition Of the gangs Of hired
vote peddlers and noisy hangers-on,
who, for long distances, crowded the
approaches to the voting places under
the former system, making the duty
of voting, to macy citizens, an un-
pleasant one. Many of these vote
disturbers, white and black, were
hired for the sake of the single vote
to be given by each, and the thrust
ing of this or that party ballot or
split ticket in the faces Of the ap-
proaching voters was mere empty
show or cover for what was in fact
only case of vote buying. The
effect of copious doses of whisky, as
the day wore on, never improved the
condition OF these crowds about tho
polls, and the abolition Of the nui-
sance, even at town election, was
generally declared TO be great re-
lief. The election was as quiet aud
seemly as anybody could wish. OF
course the law has not yet had
full oest, but the more it is tested the
better it will work
