"In Difference to the more conservative of
our women" continued the speaker, 1--WE have
no special department of franchise in the W.
C. T. U. of this District But we know that the
liquor interest is universally opposed to
woman's ballot, declaring that they must fight
it to the bitter end, &C., that we have learned
to look upon it as a mighty leverage to lift this
land from the curse Of rum, aud therefore we
are almost unanimously in favor OF it, True,
some whom we delight to honor in ecclesiastical
and other circles have charged female
suffragists with infidelity. socialism, spiritual
ism, &C., and they are still doing SO. The
strength Of this charge is broken when we re-
call the many eminent men in church and
national life who have advocated woman
ballot.
Mrs. La Fetra referred to the work of the
worlds ". C. 7. U. and the reports smadel by
the "round the world missionary, Miss Mary

associates to q solemn renewal of their vows Of
devotion to a good cause and spoke briefly in

The distinction is now said to belong
to Bombay Of possessing the greatest
piece Of solid masonry construction that
the world has ever seen in modern times.
1t appears that for years past the water
supply Of Bombay depended upon works
known to be defective, involving the
possibility Of a water famine in that
great eastern seaport, and in view of
this q consultation Of eminent engineers
was held, under the direction Of the
government with the result that large
dam was determined on, to inclose the
watershed Of the valley which drains
into the sea south Of Bombay.
This gigantic structure, designed and
accomplished by the superior engineer
ing skill Of L. q. Glover. is two miles
long, 118 feet in height, and 1O3 feet
wide at the base, with a roadway on
the top a feet wide, the stonework
alone costing $2,O00,00O The lake
of water which this dam imprisons is
some eight square miles il area, and
sixty miles Of pipe perform the service.
Twelve thousand HndOos were special
ly trained by Engineer Glover for en-
plovment on this dam New York Sun

THE BIRTH OF A PRAYER

About the church soft music flowed
Fair voices borne on organ waves
With tinted light the dim aisles pIovrad
Like caves that sunlit water laves:
The twelve Apostles carved in stone
Looked grimly down upon the nave
Where faces chilly as their own
No sign Of kindling feryor gave
The music and the sunshine kent
The secret Of their gladness wen.
AS DER our heavy souls they swept
The tale Of empty praise to tell:
Nor ruby light, nor old gray walls.
Nor vested priest, nor music fair
Nor the sweet holy hush that falls
Within a church. move hearts To nra var
saw gray old man bend down
ills shaggy head, his furrowed face
And, with a pleased and patient froyn
Help his wee lass to find the place:
The two heads bobbed about the page
Roses and withered leaves at plav:
one finger plump, one crooked with age.
Picked verse by verse the doubtful Vav
Great glasses, juggling to the lines.
Braced his dim eyes the words to trace
While the small pouter watched the signs
Of hope or failure in his face;
The knotted finger stopped at last
So did the plump one, with an air.
And up and down such looks were cast
mat IN my heart was born a PRAYER.

In lieu Of mourning the immense ex-
pense Of excavating the London docks to
accommodate the increased size given to
modern ships, large pumping engines
have now been set up. and the water in
the docks is raised by this means. Some
idea Of the demands upon these engines
can be had from the size Of the docks,
one Of which has an area Of nearly ten
acres, the pumps which raise the water
having capacity Of 685 tons per minute
and raising the water level FIVE feet in
one half hours.
Centrifugal pumps Of superb work
manship are employed, driven direct by
compound tandem engines, and the power
Of these pumps is evident from the fact
that the inlet orifices to the main pumps
are fiftyfour inches in diameter, and,
when worked together, the three pumps
have capacity to raise $1,000, 900 gal
Ions Of water in five hours, against an
average head Of ten feet The pumps
are arranged to be worked separately
and Independently OF together. as de-
sired, and the engines are supplied with
steam at a hundred pounds pressure by
powerful boilers. New York Sun.

How to BE Healthy and uairr

A new prophet has arisen. His claims
to attention are imperative from the fact
that he guarantees his followers exemn-
ton from two Of the greatest affections
to which fashionable flesh is heir-dys-
pepsia and badness. The name of the
prophet is Khorf, a Russian. and he
bears his credentials writ large on his
person.
Though he has already passed the
span allotted to humanity bv the
Psalmist, he is as agile as a young opos-
sum and as well matched as Absalom.
His rules Of longevity are refreshingly
simple. Eschew all drugs, never shave.
live in the open air as much as possible,
and wear as little clothes as You can
these are the cardinal doctrines Of nv
giene according to Khorf. 50 shall YOU
become healthy, happy and hairy for
in the view Of the new prophet the nat
ural condition Of the human being is to
be all hairy like Esau, or all downy like
Stanley's pygnies, Above all, you must
walk rhythmically," for DR.. Khorf
maintains that we digest with our legs
and not with our stomach. Meat, spirits,
mineral waters, and theaters are all ia
booed in the Khorfan system. Personally,
he never wears a hat, and takes his meals
in the open air, Nodoubt, if this hirsute
sage's mode Of life were compulsorily
enforced on the entire population we
should all be speaking Simian in a couple
Of generations. If ever there is a car
or an emperor who is an ardent Darwin
ian, the temptation to try the experiment
will probably prove irresistible. London

EVERY MAN On woman who builds a house or store in the town in which he lives, is instrumental in adding to or de- tracting from the general appearance of the town he is desirous of building up and advancing. Still, in this Territory, how few people stop to consider archi- tectural features when about 10 build? How few people properly measure the important addition they may make to their town if they will go little out of their way to secure attractive designs, and pay q little something to get the ad- vice of architects who have made the planning of buildings lifelong study.
 The average builder in Arizona has plan, and has, as 8 rule, been his own architect, consulting neither plans, de- signs, nor specifications, but simply catering to his own individual taste in the matter. The result of this has been the building of unattractive houses and business places throughout the Terri tory, and oftentimes the builders have paid much more, and got much less, than would have been the result of se- curing q proper plan from competent sources.
 When a person is about to build, no matter now inexpensive a house, he should reflect that it is his natural de- sire to add something to the town to in- crease it's beauty, and thereby enhance the value of town property, and more particularly, the property he is about to build. Barring this desire in mind, the wouldbe builder should thoroughly eX- anime into the matter, in order that he may ascertain how to build q house to get the most for his money, |. c., the best house AS far as accommodations and general outside appearance goes.
 The architectural features of Phoenix are far in advance of the other cities of the Territory, and the larger buildings particularly, bespeak careful forethought in their construction.
 The residential properties present a little too much sameness to be attractive from an architectural standpoint, but the fact that they are mostly substantial brick buildings covers many shortcom- | ings.
 The day for "every man his own ar chitect" and low squatty buildings with four unbroken walls has passed in Ari- zona, and it is to be hoped some atten' tion will be paid to building such homes as will please the eye and be useful from practical standpoint.

UTAH has just had an exciting election
 In Salt Lake City and county, the Lib
 erals did fairly we'll, but in the outside counties, the>close rule vote of the Mor- mon church was largely successful, and they have good working majority in
 both Council and House. The election was more or less test for or against Statehood. The Liberals being against, and the MOrmons fayoring Statehood. The Mormons have carried the vote, but the Liberals will certainly be able to
 successfully prevent action in the United States Senate, or by the Presi- dent. It may not be generally known that the Mormons have acquired very -large tract of land in Old Mexico, and just south from Deming, N. M., and
 that railroad has been surveyed for some time past, and lately John w. Young, son of old Brigham, has been given the contract for it's construction, and that active work has, or is soon to be begun thereon. In cOnversa- tion, Ex-Governor Ross, now living in Deming, recently told a gentleman, that the Mormons averaged fully 800 a week, who passed through Deming, going to their new home in Mexico. There seems to be no doubt but what the recent legislation by Congress and the United States has convinced the leaders that to practice polygamy they must find a new home, and this is their selection. They claim that polygamy is by divine instruction, and that he who fulflls the divine law in this res pect, is entitled to Q high seat in heaven. They say that it is not com mand to follow it, but the above in-

ARTIFICIAL irrigation by pumping on land fairly wooded, and where the water does not have to be raised over twenty feet, is perfectly feasible in Arizona, and can be cheaply done. Of course it is necessary to select land particularly adapted to the pumping of water, where wood can be had for the cost of cutting, and where an abundant supply of water can be developed at reasonable ex- pense. For fruit culture thls system seems admirable, and in many places it will prove to be the only means of using water flowing to waste underground.

ducement is held out to those who do follow it. It is under the above theory that their church authorities, not long ago. counciled their people to respect the national law.
