Arizona's Unequalled Climate.
Silver Belt

Silver Belt.
 8In the combination of those meteor ological conditions which go to make up a salubrious climate, Arizona leads all other divisions of the United States, as the records of the Government Signal Service abundantly attest. While Arizona may be said to possess two distinct climatic zones, showing wide variance of temperature, owing to a difference of altitude, vet those desirable conditions prevail to an eminent degree throughout the Territory, viz: A remarkable dry at mosphere, an unusually great number of clear days, and exemption from sudden and extreme changes of temperature.
 The records of the Signal Service for nine years at Fort Grant, Camp Thomas. Fort Apache, Prescott and Yuma. give the percentage of relative humidity at those stations ct 41, 21, 24, 51, 45-an average for the five stations of 484 which will approximate very closely the average for the entire Territory. The | significance of this exhibit is apparent l when 1t is known that in the whole country covered by the U. $. Signal Service only eleven other stations, divided among six l States and Territories, show a relative humidity of 59 or less.
 "rhe land of sunshine" as applied to Arizona, has become somewhat trite, yes its appositeness is apparent. It IS well established fact that i'll many portions of our Territory the sun shines every day in the year, while at no point, probably, it is entirely obscured more than two or three days in the three hundred and sixty five. According to the records, Yuma Arizona, enjoys a greater amount of sunshine than any other spot on the North American continent. The record there for twelve years shows an average of PIT. 4 clear days, and B fair days, and the least nun Der of clear days recorded in the Territory is 210.3 at Fort Grant, which is also credit ed with an average of III fair days in the year.
 Among the fifteen stations in the Unit
 ed States having the least daily difference. of mean temperature, Yuma and Prescott
 find place, and their advantages in thi
 respect over other towns in Arizona is st
 slight as to be scarcely appreciable. In
 deed the exemption from sudden and ex
 treme changes of temperature, iron
 violent and destructive winds, cyclones
 and blizZards Is remarkable. guaranteain! complete immunity to life and propert from the destructive force of the elements so frequently witnessed in other less favo. ed sec ions of the country,
 ? Without any risk of exaggeration, o , fear that the statement can be refuted, may be asserted that for salubrity, tn , prevalence of those atmospheric condition
 which conduce to bodily health and con
 fort, the climate of Arizona Is inc0mparabl superior to that of any other portion ( 7 the United States.

BOYS AS HEROES.

AdmIratIOn and Awe That < Little Tray.

 Is he really hero? Boys from 10 to iJ years of age have great admiration for boy near their own age who has seen something of the world, and it makes little difference whether the per sonal appearance of the world worn boy is ill bis favor or not. In fact, the rough CT the exterior the deeper and more heartfelt is their admiration.
 Over on the North Side is a youth about 16 that the boys swear by. They acknowledge he is different in appear ance from well brought up boys, but "he was in the navy, and they wear shirts open at the throat there, and that was where he was tattooed. He has taken care of himself since he was s years old. He has been out on the plains and in Texas, and has ridden in the saddle ninety hours without sleep. He has saved thirty or forty lives in as many different ways, and then, you know, mamma, he fights our battles for us, and smaller boys need some one when those gangs get after us."
 A few nights ago, about $50, the bell rang at the house of lady living on one of the principal streets not far from the lake. She being alone in the house an swered it. There was the defender of the neighborhoods well dressed boys against gangs" His face was white, his lips blue. He said: ''Please, ma'am, am Texas Will you let me have a glass of water? One of the boys has been taken with cramps in swimming, and l can't bring him to-" He pointed with his hand to the pavement, and there in the glare of light was boy about 16 or IT, His white face, with blue circles, looked as if he was beyond help.
 After the first shock it needed only q second glance to see that doctors ser vices must be secured at once. And the boys, seven or eight of them, lifted their burden and carried him across the street | to physician. The doctor said next day the boy was in very critical condi- ton, but would live. So there are some | living witnesses to the heroisln of the strange boy "Texas," even if sometimes his most ardent admirers wonder if some of those thrilling tales are really true. Chicago Herald.

A Railroad that Employees Like,
Phenix Herald.


 Railroads cannot be called essentially popular institutions. The Southern Pacific IS no exception to the rule.
 One of the Herald reporters, while visiting along the road this week, was not d little surprised, therefore, when prompt ly called to order for giving vent to that public opinion which usually classes rail way companies with other general enemies.
 The reporter was duly informed that on it's Tucson division at least, extending from that old pueblo to Yuma, the South ern Pacific had host of firm friends in those who usually constitute a company's faintest admirers, to wit, the employees. No matter how much the pubho may howl. officers of that road are attached loyally to it and eagerly spring to its de- fense whenever the management Is assail- ed
 This results from well settled con viction that the road treats its employees not only fairly but liberally too. The ''old man." as the latter fOndly call Senator Stanford, will always listen to the humblest fireman or roustabout and treats him kind ly. Even q broken down engineer. dis charce1 for drunkenness, can stagger up to the 'old man" with no fear of naughty repulse.
 Division superintendent Noble, at Tue son, is a worthy illustration of similar popularity. The Gila Bend station agent describes him as about the finest SUD- erintendent on the continent Other officials also are said to treat the men un- der them well. Their pay is entirely satisfactory. Freight conductors make from S100 to S165 monthly; passenger conductors range between S110 and S120 freight engineers have records of $175 and $250 per month. Even firemen can climb from S80 to S125.

A Mischlevous noy's Act.

There is a governess in an uptown family who has not found favor in the eyes of her young pupils. One of these is m S-year-old boy, with considerable mischief and no end of daring in his composition. and this youngster, who handles his paint brush very neatlya was recently called upon by his governess to paint her name in small white letters in- side her handsome new silk umbrella. So Master John set his brushes and boxes out and squared himself to his task. "But how shall mark it. Miss Jones'" he asked. Shall 1 paint Miss Jones' or Miss Ellen Jones or Miss E. Jones, or vhat?"
 "Oh." drawls Miss Jones carelessly from her novel, 'I don't care-simpls Ellen Jones would be best, fancy"
 And with this idea put into the head of the mischievous boy, what could be expected except just what did happen? For when the umbrella, duly marked, was handed to Miss Jones she opened it to read in letters white and clear and unmistakable the words Simple Ellen Jones. "-New York Evening Sun.

A Bride But No Groom.

There was considerable excitement
at Middletown. Md. last week over
the failure of groom to put in his
appearance at the time for the we'd
ding. The marriage of Miss Mollie
Hyatt, a popular young lady of Mid
dletown, was announced for Tuesday
night, to take place at the home of
the bride. Invitations were issued,
and at the appointed hour friends
gathered TO witness the ceremony.
The groom failed TO put in an appear
ance at the expected hour, and after
waiting long and patiently the young
lady was compelled TO explain mat
tiers To her guests. Miss Hyatt stated
that she had received a note from
Keller Sunday, saying that he would
go TO Baltimore Monday TO buy his
wedding suit, and would be on hand
in time for the ceremony. The af-
fair was happily ended Wednesday
at Frederick, where Miss Hyatt had
gone, and where, after an explanation
from Keller, she consented to marry

LET'S TRY AGAIN.

Shepherdstown ought to wake up
once more and make another effort
to improve the business interests Of
the place. While it is true that in
the past efforts in this direction have
not been as successful as we could
wish, at the same time we believe 1t
is good policy TO keep on trying.
Don't let's be discouraged, but let us
try again,
First we should try and inaugurate
some improvements by efforts of our
own, and next we should tryto induce
outside capital TO invest in our com
munity. The way to get at the thing
is for our people to work unitedly
and tremendously. If we cannot un-
dertake great things, let us begin on
small matters. Many small affairs
will equal few large ones, and even
small ones themselves can be made TO
grow into large ones.
We do not know OF any more avail
able place for certain manufacturing
establishments than Shepherdstown.
II has many and varied inducements
Fine water-power, available sites, low
prices of desirable locations, railroad
facilities. healthful and pleasant sur
roundings, and many other advanta
ges, render it most desirable place
for investment.
We trust our people may once more
make an effort to attract the atten-
ton of capitalists and endeavor to
help our towns business. Get to-
gether and unitedly seek to accom-
plish this end. The REGISTER is at
the command of our people in this or
any other movement looking to the
public welfare.
