A GEOGRAPHICAL DISPLAY.
An Extensive Exhibit of School Apparatu
 to Be Made at Brooklyn Next Year.

Since early last spring the depart ment of geography of the Brooklyn h. stitute has been engaged in collecting from leading countries geographical appliances used in schools and libra ries. It secured for this enterprise the indorsement and cooperation of the scientific bureaus at Washington and of many prominent educators. It expects, says the New York Sun, to open the exhibition early next year. Nearly every steamer is bringing geographical products from Europe, and our own pub fishers and manufacturers intend to be we'll represented. Most of the famous geographical houses of Europe say they will take part in the- exhibition. The collection will include maps, aliases, globes, etc., by the most famous pro- ducers of these articles in the world. Within the past two weeks the list of foreign contributors has had ten addi- tions, and there is every prospect that sixty or more of the geographical houses of Europe will be represented.
 1t is intended to exhibit this collec- tion first in Brooklyn and later in New York and other cities. It will then be returned to the Brooklyn Institute to form permanent collection, where every one interested in studying and comparing the best products in the geo. graphical line will have ample oppor- tunity for doing so. The collection will be catalogued and so arranged as to fa- cilitate examination and study.
 The department is collecting from all over the world data relating to the posi- tion of geography in the schools and methods of geographical instruction. Over a thousand circulars containing lists of questions have been sent to edu- cators with reference to this feature of the work. Voluminous information is being received, and these reports will be compiled and published. It is ex- pected that this publication will be of great assistance to teachers, and will advance the interests of geography in this country.
 It is hoped to make this exhibition a leading educational feature in this country during the coming year, and the Brooklyn Institute is likely soon to possess finer lot of geographical ma terial than can be found in any similar collection in this country.

THE CITIZEN is in receipt of a philan- thropic pamphlet on the Indian ques- tion, issued by Messrs. Scattergood and Comfort. If the gentlemen with the suggestive names desire to write in- telligently on the Indian question it would be well to associate themselves with that suffering people sufficiently at least to know what they are writing about. Opinions of men who have never Seen an Indian save in picture books and in front of cigar shops are not the best judges. J. Fennimors Cooper has left us a high ideal of the Indian character, but To of today is another of person. The CITIZENS altitude has been for justice toward the Indian, and strict justice. Protect him in his rights, and when he violates the law deal with him promptly and effectively. Over fourteen hundred white men, and wo- men, and babes have been ruthlessly murdered in cold blood within the past two decades in Arizona. There is al ways two sides to every question, Messrs. Scattergood and Comfort.

IN his four hours exhaustive argu-
 ment in defense of the Lodge Election
 in the senate, Senator Spooner, of Wis csnsin, fully justified his high reputa-
 ton for eloquent and convincing oratory,
 and conclusively replied to tke demo- cratic denunciation and vitupsrstion, which on that side of the senate cham
 Der has taken the place of argument. At the same time, he made convincing
 and unanswerable argument for the bill.
 He showed that the admitted suppress
 ion of the votes of the colored people of the South by fraud, force, violence and constitutions was a wrong, not only on the negro race of the South, but also a wrong on the north. The question is not local, nor are the results local. The wrong is a national one. He asked: Were southern senators willing to say that there was only enc side to the question? Was it fair for them to shut their eyes to everything but their own environments, and to say that those from the North who complained against the inequality which the southern policy gave to the South in the House of Repre- sentatives and in the Electorial College were mere partisans, seeking the ac- complisement of partisan purposes? As the negro population increased, and as the negro vote was suppressed, that wrong upon the North became intsnsi- fled. Southern men ought not to fold their arms and say that they would keep their increased representation, while they would suppress the negro vote. If they did not wish to be rule by ignorance, there was nothing to pre- vent their adopting the strictest kind of an educational test, if it were an honest one" Senator Spooner's speech covered the entire ground, and may fitly termi- nate q discussion of this bill already too long continued. Nothing can be gained by prolonging it, and the senate owes it to itself and to the country to vote, and to make this bill law.

A Boy So Constructed That He Can Locate
 Ore a Divininx Rod Does Water.
 The magnetic needle has long been considered reliable medium for divin- ing the location of veins containing konstone, or other similar deposits, and In the course of some experiments con- ducted by Professors Rucker and Thorpe, and other eminent men of sci ence, some remarkable combinations of and additions to the theories hitherto held on the subject were achieved. It was found that on approaching an area beneath which ironstone was deposited the needle became defected In cases where the iron was near to the surface the dehection was most acute, and where it was hidden far below the sur face the degree of defection was ac- cordingly diminished, so that by care fully noting the movements of the nee de it was possible not only to fix the exact locality where iron was to be found, but also, according to the de- gree of Reflection, to fix with tolerable accuracy the depth at which the vein would be met with.
 Another mode of discovering the location of minerals is to use the ''diviner,' as a person gifted with magnetic powers" is called. There is now in England remarkable boy who Is regularly employed for this purpose by mining company In the north of the country The manager of the com pany, in describing this boy, says: Mineral veins and water have very strong magnetic attraction for the boy, who is 15 years of age and of ordinary weight. If he stand in small quan- tity of water it takes very strong man to lift hin- ls Is not at all necessary for him to carry a stick All he re- quires to do IS to walk over the ground with his hands clasped, and he can i'm mediately tell you if he steps upon a vein He can give the direction of the vein, and say whether it is weak or strong. He can also, by simply walk ing over it, say whether another vein crosses into 1t.
 ''When he came here we were all skep- tical, SO we took him on portion of a hill where we knew veins to exist, but where no outside traces were visible, and he correctly gave us the direction of each. In his researches he came upon @ very large and strong vein, which was quite unknown to us. He gave us its direction and strength, and as We have since put shaft down into this vein we have proved that he was exactly right as to it's position. He does not profess to tell whether the vein car ries lead ore or not; all he can do is to find the vein for you and say what size and strength it is. In the vein he found for us we have not yet come upon lead ore, but 1t carries rich mineral soil and promises well" This boy Is accompa- nied by a medical man, whose services are frequently required as the work of discovery proceeds in consequence of repeated magnetic shocks which he re- ceives from contact with minerals or water-New York Commercial Adver- ticor

IT is we'll that the defense of hypnot- ism by criminals was squashed with the sentence of Gabriel Bompsrd. Had this theory been admitted the gates of crime would have been opened. Hypno- tism would have supplsnted emotional insanity" in its popularity. There may be a science by which one mind can exercise a csr.aln amount of con trol upon another; that this control can compel to murder where the patient pos- sess as any degree of strength is not be- lieved. Gabriel Bompard was moro gov ernsd by passive spirit of indifference, bred Of long career as denl-mondains than by any mssmsric influences Eyraud possessed. She may have even feared him but from her own testimony, she was at all times in full possession of her n.nd faculties.

TOMORROW is the New Year. It has been legalized as holiday and will be generally celebrated with rejoicing. The day will be siezed upon by many as the proper time to turn over new leaf" Good resolutions, date from tomorrow and will be found strewn all along the highway of the new year where they have dropped of fatigue. Many man and woman will resolve tomorrow, to put forth greater efforts to make the home circle what it should be. Many who have lived in the valley of the shapow of death, will emerge from the sombre trappings and habiliments of woe into the sunlight of the new year. With coming is hope, for the future bears uncefeinity, and in uncertainty there is always room for hope.
 Speaking in a business way Tucson and the territory enters the new year strong and filled with promise. The checkered career of the past will have no cause for repetition, These elements which leagued against the prosperity of Arizona are dead and buried. The fear of savages; the perils and hardships incident upon pioneer life have paved the way for high fertilization. The pioneer spirit has overcome the difficult ties. New men and new measures have put their shoulders to the wheel. Up from the parched valley, the cactus plains and sand wastes is springing the perennial green. Arizona in the year of Our Lord 1891 is 8 new land.

An Equivalent for Suicide

If We allow our bodily in1rmities to make away with us through neglect, have we such an immense suicide? Scarcely. For example, the deadly pro- gress of Bright's disease, dialects, acute nepbitis and gravel is sure-often terri ply swift in the catastrophe. Most people of average information know that this is the simple, unvarnished truth in regard to those widely prevalent mala- dies. To delay judioious medications is specially suicidal in such cases. The means of restraint is to be found in Hos tetter's Stomach Bitters. Give an inn petus to the action of the kidneys with this safe and reliable diuretic, and the infant complaint is shown at it's birth of the power for evil. Allow it to grow, ond anticipate the worst. The Bitters, which annihilates these growing troub- les, also eradiates dyspepsia, rheuma- tlsm, malarial and liver complaints. Appetite, sleep and vigor are also pro- noted by it.

Some Big Indian Rugs.

The rugs that are hung over all the doorways at the art gallery attract al- most as much admiration as VereStcha- gins paintings themselves. Those that hang in the middle room particularly excite comments of wonder and delight. Both these rugs were woven in India, and measure g by 80 feet, and each weighs about l GOO pounds. They would make cunning little bath towels for such giants as Atlas, who flourished long ago before India rugs came into fashion All of us that have gone into carpet stores and priced Turkey and India rugs know how costly they are It Is easy enough, then, to believe the story that S20, 900 has been refused for these two large rugs, which after all were made for the door mats simply to an Indian rajah's summer residence in the foothills of the Himalayas.-Buf- talo Courier.
