The supposition that army life is an
easy one is a civilians delusion. No
occupation on earth Is more exacting.
The reveiIle is sounded at daylight, and
the soldier must be up and ready. Be
tween reveille in the morning and
taps, at $50 al aight, he has to at
tend the majority of thirtythree bu-
gle calls, and he is on his feet most of
the time ill retreat at sunset. The
officers are busy at nearly all times
over new military problems. They
are called to mount and manage new
artillery that would have struck dire
dismay into armies like those of CR-
sar, Hannibal or Alexander Today

King Sham Reigns.

This is an era of shams, and shams
in dress, about which 50 much is said
and written, are particularly notice
able. It no longer pays to purchase
good things" because good things
go out of date as fast as poor things,
and their extra cost is dead loss, hence
expedients of all sorts mark the APP
parel, the furniture, the houses even,
of this now almost defunct Nineteenth
century. A very expensive cheapness
has been substituted for enduring in
vestments. There are some few old
fogies yet remaining who demand sub
stance rather than style, and who
trust they are getting an Al article by
paying an Al price for it. Let EN-
still hope! Do not disturb their Gre
dulity in advance. But it is none the
less true that sham is king, precisely
as shoddy ruled the world in post bel
lum days. The source of this condition
of affairs is not far to seek; the in
creasing populations, the greed for
money, the struggle to live, all COM
bine to father shams and nurture pre-
tense. Make believes are the order OF
the day.-Boston Herald

At a banquet which was given at
the conclusion OF the German con-

understanding the constitution OF or

WHY BOOKS FAIL.
1t Is Because the People Who Wrote
Them Have Nothing Original to Say.

1t Is Because the People Who wrote
Them Have Nothing Original to Say.
The reason why so many books fail is
because the people vino wrote them
have nothing original to say, or what
they say is said badly. Another reason
is that few of those who can write know
any thing. They have no invention.
They do not see with their own eyes,
but with other peoples eyes. They
write books about other peoples books
and have little of their own to tell us
Chamfort gives another idea of author
ship: what makes the success of
numerous works" he says, lis the Atm
ity between the mediocrity of the ideas
of the author and the mediocrity of the
ideas of the public"
When an author has composed work,
he necessarily takes an interest in it.
Every writer of books, says Shelley,
likes to breech his bantlingS. He may
have spent many years upon it, and
probably forms an excessive estimate Of
its value. He is under the impression
that most readers of books will desire to
possess it. Lackington, the bookseller,
tells the story of gentleman who,
not being able to find purchaser for
his manuscript, resolved to publish it
at his own expense. The publisher de-
sired to know how many copies should
be printed The gentleman began to
compute how many families there were
in Great Britain, and assured the pub
Usher that every family would at least
purchase one copy. He was of opinion
that at the lowest 10000 copies only
mirht be printed of the first edition.
The publisher prevailed upon him,
much to his disgust, to print only 1850
instead of 50. coo. The result was that
only 100 copies were sold, not even
enough to pay for the advertisements,
and the author departed, railing at the
stupidity Of publisher, bookseller and
public.
Booll-writing is quite as much spec
ulation on the one hand as book-selling
is on the other Only a small number Of
the books published pay their expenses,
and very few of ttrem reach a second
edition. Every year" says De Quin-
cey. "buries its own literature When
an author writes for money, he goes to
the publisher and endeavorS TO sell hiH
the manuscript for as much as he can
get. He may get too little, or he may
get too much. The publisher takes the
risk, and incurS the expense of printing,
binding and advertising. If the book
sells and the author thinks he has got
too little, he proelaims that he has been
out-witted or defrauded. But if the
hook does not sell, it never enters the
authors head to refund the copy money
or return the amount OF loss TO the
publisher Both have run the risks oil
the speculation, and both must ne con
tnnt 10 abide the issue.-Murray's Mag
azine.

Old Chief SpIitlog.

There Is one Indian in the Unit States worth S1,OOO,OOO. He is known as Matthias Spitlog, and is chief of the Wyandotte tribe. His mother gave him birth near a split log, hence his name. He is now seventy years of age and cam either read or write. For all that he is a great money-getter. Some time ago he was pursuaded to sell track of land on the Kawbottoms for $40, 900, the money to be paid to to him at 10 o'clock on a certain morning at a bank on Minnesota avenue, Kansas City. The Indian entered the bank shortly before 10 o'clock took seat keeping his eyes on the clock. When the clock struck 10 and the capitalists had not arrived he walked promptly out of the bank. On the street he met the men who were to buy his lands and when they asked him to return to the bank he refused and set the next day at the same hour. When they all m ct next day Splitlog re- fused to sell for S14O,OOO and wanted sl6O,OOO. The syndicates wanted the land, and fearing anoth- CT rise in real estate accepted his terms.

The Intelligence of the Car House.


 The street car horse has no name In the stable he has number, but during business hours he is without any particular identity. His driv- CT seldom addresses him excpt in the way of objurgation, and, having no faith in the power of a cheery voice, relies mainly upon his stub of whip for an increase of speed on the part of his team. In the early days of street railroad travel the cars were provided with poles and the horses hampered by much un- necessary harness. The poles have gone out, and so has most of the harness, and now there is nothing left to impede the animals move ments except the load, often a dead load, behind him. After a horse has supplied part of the motive power for car for a few months he a considerable degree of astuteness and intelligence.
 He knows that when the bell rings there is stop to be made and comes gradually to a halt of his own accord. Another ring and he is on the move again. There is one point, however, at which his intelligence or power of reasoning stops. Up to date he has not sue ceeded in getting on to" the sum- mer whistle. Its tones, ear pierc- ing and weird as they usually are entirely beyond his conception. Meditation in tones making no impression on his brain, and in the days when the whistle is heard in the land he stopes and starts solely at the suggestion of his driver.- Brooklyn Eagle.

A. P. Freight.

Mr. E. McCammon, of Winslow, Apache county, who is in Prescott with his towns base ball nine, came to the Territory about the time the time the A P railroad entered it and has been here all the while, fill ing position under the company. He forwarded the first lot of A P freight that ever came to Prescott, among which was big bill of paper for the Courier. The freight was hauled in wagons, from the vicinity of Canyon Diablo, by Marshall Woods, who is now in Maricopa county. This was long time ago. The freight cost seven or eight cents a pound, but those who paid that price did it to encourage a rail road company that was making hurculean efforts to give Northern Arizona railroad facilities. How well the company succeeded is known to millions of peopIe, and the only kick this paper has made against the company was on account of its desire to pay little, if any tax es.
 We are glad that the company Has kept its first freight forwarder and hope, soon, to hear of his pro- motion.-Courier.
