It is evident from the experience of the last two winters that great change is taking place in the climate oi Arizona, more particularly in this part of 1t. It has generally been be- lieved that this was one of the dryest portions of the Territory, but that idea wil have to be modified, as it is eyi- dent that crops of any description would have rnatured in the most per. feet manner by the rainfall. of the past two winters When tue immense ex- tent of the fertile valleys of Mobave are considered, the importance of this change can hardly be overestimated. It IS possible that few years may witness a great change in the condi- ton of business in this part of the country.

The Washington, D. C., Post says
 that it is understood the Sioux chiefs
 had rather turbulent interview with
 the Commissions of Indian Affairs
 over the subject of Indian schools.
 Mr. IvIng Miller, Secretary of the
 Sioux Commission, when questioned
 upon the subject, sad: "Ii is natural that tue Indians should be dissatisfied
 with the schools at Hampton and Car lisle. In the first place, from 90 to 70 per cent. of the pupils at Carlisle and Hampton die within four years of their return home die like sheep with the murrain principally from pulmon- ary complaints. This is due either to tue effect of the Eastern climate or to the enervating influence of closed houses after an outdoor life. It may he that going back 10 the hills, and the rude tepees of their parents after the comforts of civilization, is the cause 0t this great mortality, but the death rate IS fearful. and the Indians object 10 the Eastern schools. An. other objection IS urged that several years in the East teaches be young Indians 10 despise their knsmen, to lose the natural gratitude and affec- ton due their parents. whom they lind, on their return, living in ignor- anee, squalor and wretchedness, and their education makes gap which aan not be abridged, while if tue schools were at the agency the chil. lren would dally take home some evi- Hence of civilization and better mode of living, and lift heir parents to nigher level

How true Is that old fable of the sphinx who sat by the wayside, pro- pounding her riddle 10 the passengers.

 body of a liOness. There IS Tn her a. celestial beauty, winch means celestial order, piancy to wisdom, but there is also darkness, ferocity, fatality, which are infernal. Sue is a goddess, but one net yet imprisoned; one still haIfimprisoned, the eiuarticulate, love ly, still encased in the articulate chaot- ic. How true And does she not pro- pound her riddles to us? Of each man she asks daily, in mild voice, yet with terrible significance, "knowest thou the meaning of the day? What thou canst do to-day. wisely attempt to do. Nature, universe, destiny, existence, howsoever we name this great un- nameable fact in the midst of which we live and struggle. is as a heavenly bride and conquest to the wise and brave, to them who can discern her heheSts and do them, a destroying fiend 10 them who cannot. Answer her riddle, It is well wub thee.

The mioeral output of Colorado for the year 1889 is placed at something over S30000000. These figures are obtaIned direct from tl.e smelters. the United State, Mint in Denver, and the ore buyers who shipped ore out of the State.
 This is not, however, all of tae State production. Some gold vas sent out of the state not appearing Tn the fig. ures given by those quoted, and some was sold 10 the manufacturers. The amounts sodisposed of aggregate more than is generally supposed, butas any estimate would be only a guess, It is omitted from the calculation. 1t will certainly be enough to swell the total mineral output for 1889 10 over SEQ 004Go0. Ibe oatpnt of 1888 vas fig ured at s26,06l ,54G. The silver is calculated at 93c. az ounce. The Uniled States authorities, in their es- inmates calculate silyer at its coinage value of Sl 29 per ounee, thus making each year the value of tLe production more than the miner, or buyer, or smelier receiyed for it. As an illus tration, the value of Colorados prod. uci for 1888 was reported by the Director of the Mint 10 be S3G,000 GOO, which was fully $900o,000 above tue commercial value to the mlners of trolora3o

IL Is remarkable how much influence proverbs. or current sayings of any ssrt, have upon the average mind. They may be transparentIy false, wholly unjust, grossly cynical; ii mat rers not. They are commonly accept cd without scrutiny or criticism as If they were self,evident truths. The mere fact of iteration carries great weight; pithy phrase, containing a tang.
