HARD WORK OF THE coRALERs.
These men are frequently compelled to dive
forty or fifty feet and WELD a heavy crowbar
in breaking up the coral rock until they can
scarcely breathe. They are then hauled up by
their comrades with q stout rope and after
resting awhile, again descend to bring up the
pieces.
They are often forced to fight sharks. sting
rays and sunfshes while below, so that their
business is no sinecure. There is no red coral
in Florida, all found thus far being white and
divided into classes according to fneness, the
coarsest being known as tree coral and the
finest as maiden's finger. When the coral
is brought up it 10 placed in barrels of
salt water and soaked for four DAYS In order TO

but which has no effect on others. It il locally

New Officers for sorosis.

The annual election of officers in So

Ella Dietz Clymer, who has presided
with such grace and dignity over all
Sorosian high festivals, had declined with

but DR.. Jennie M. Lozier received the

Among the new and unexpected occu-
pations taken up by women may be men
toned piano tuning, horticulture and
sanitary engineering. early in May a
school for women gardeners is to be
opened and presided over by practical
gardener of the gentler sex, in which all
the details of gardening at the different
seasons of the year will be practically
studied. By passing the examination in
sanitary science conducted by the coun-
Gil of the Sanitary institute in London
Miss Margaret Scott, lecturer on domes-
tic economy and hygiene, is placed in
the unique position of being the only
lady in Great Britain duly qualified to
perform the duties of sanitary inspect
or. This study she has taken up for the
purpose of educating women in that par
ticular branch of knowledge in which
they are said to be sadly deficient. Miss
Scott considers it the absolute duty of
women to acquaint themselves with the
principles of that much neglected sci

curiously for moment, then passed on
without bowling or speaking. Later he
came to me with an explanation: sDo

seen you without your bonnet For a
moment could hardly believe this pos
sible, but a little reflection assured me
of its truth.

ball or u dinner, and really these two
occasions are the only ones where we
don't wear bonnets nowadays. l know
many days have simply lived in mine
from the moment of leaving my room in

or four times with different gowns, but
I was not bonnetless till midnight,

why millinery is such paying business. !"

Economy in Society.

There are some original methods of
economy practiced by many OF the So
ciety girls. Just at this time, they all
join some kind Of sewing class which
has some charitable idea for its raison
detre. Some others form reading clubs,
and visit some of the hospitals or other
charitable institutions a certain day in
the week, for the purpose Of reading to
the inmates. Now this is the scheme Of
economy which one of these fair bellies
disclosed few days ago.
81 announce to many of my admirers
that I have given up candy and all sorts
of sweets as matter of self denial dur
ing Lent. Thus l save something on a
dentists bill, and as am trying to live
on an allowance this year everything
counts. In the next place, my friends
all take to bringing me flowers instead
of the sweets which have given up,
and SO when I start out to visit my hos
pital patients, and the Old Ladies' home,
/ have any quantity of pretty blossoms
to take them. Icouldn't afford to buy
them myself, and of course I should hate
to make the visits without them" So
there are numerous ways of making and
keeping fortune. e.-New York Letter.

Mrs. Ellerson's Generosity.

Nothing is more inspiring than a chat
on franchise for women with Mrs. G. G.
Ellerson. Her pocketbook and her sym
pathies have been with women from hel
early childhood. She has endowed art
schools and libraries in female colleges
until her name is household word il

now crowned all previous efforts by
erecting and furnishing free school fol

Chicago Girls Fencing.

Like two glittering serpents the slender
blades bifurcate the air, twining and in
tertwining in flashing lines that change
too rapidly for the eye to follow. The
martial ring of steel makes cheerful
music, and the heaving breasts of the
opponents tell plainly that they are well
pitted against each other. But these
are not sturdy boys training the Drawn
and sinew and skill of their young limbs.
They are two charming damsels en-
gagged in an assault at arms under the
eyes of their teacher. The fair COM
batants were Miss Mildred Holland and
Miss Mabel Marsh.
Very unlike they were in physical
equipment. Miss Holland, petite
brunette of flashing eyes and marvellous
agility, and Miss Marsh, slender, grace
full blonde, considerably taller, with soft
glance and of demure mein. But though
she looked as if she couldn't harm fly,
Miss Marsh stood her ground admirably
and her flexible wrist instantly responded
to every thrust made at her face, chest,
arms and hands. 1t was decided case
of give and take. The spectacle these
two charming young women afforded,
with every nerve and muscle on the
alert, with picturesque poses that
changed with Kaleidoscope rapidity, was
an aesthetic pleasure. The veteran pro-
fessor, ancient Col. Monastery. stood by
in close proximity, with foil raised OIL
high, ready to check the excessive ardoi
of these charming champions. And az
the ribbons of steel clashed, Joined and
sundered, the old veteran called out:
"Tie!'
"Charger
"Disengagef
"Coupez!"
"Now counter tiercer

phrases fell from his lips with lightning
speed, but often not quite enough tc

the champion of the west, had evidently
somewhat the advantage. = Chicago

Get Rid of that Bad Taste.

When you wake up in the morning with bad taste in your mouth, with your throat and tongue dry and vel low coating on your teeth and gums don't imagine it was all caused by what you ate the night before, Of course everybody does that and every body "swears off" from again eating such food.

The securing of jury in the Shank land case goes on with a weary mon- otony. The panel of 50 jurors from the county was rapidly being exhaust ed at four o'clock this afternoon, and it is hardly probable that smother draft of 50 will effect the desired result Most of those examined today had read the testimony before the coroners inquest as published in the PRospEc. TOR, and had formed an opinion. The eleven men who are at all times in the box are to be pittied as their for lorn expressions are studied.

Accom- npIfshed mt Lasr.

December 7th last, the people of St. David started 10 build a pile dam across the San Pedro. Many laughed at the idea of such an undertaking for small town like the above, and said the water never could reach the land for which it was intended; but by per. severence and pluck they were re- warded May 2Oth by seeing a good sized stream running into the settle ment. They will lose one crop of hay and the fruit trees may be dama- aged to some extent.
 The dimensions of the dam are l3O it. long, 100 it. wide at the base and 22 1t. high; there are four rows of piles, about six it. apart and these are filled in with brush and rock. The capital stock of the canal con- pany is $8784.35 and cost of dam will be about 55 per cent of said capital, making a total cost of $4S31 37 in- deed a great undertaking for such a capital and from men whose sole . pendence is in what they raise from the soil.
 Has Cochise County the same num- Der of citizens with an equal capital that would begin the same work to develop the resources of the county? Yet these are poor ignorant and "shiftless Mormons'-A people who are detrimental to their country, law breakers and blot o.l the fair name of Arizona; people whom a few of Arizona's most illustrious citizens wish to deprive of their rights of fran chise. Have these Jaw breakers" ever violated any law of the United States that they have not been punish. ed for? Have they not made a solemn VOW to obey the laws of the United States in the future-laws they have never broken? What more can be ask ed? Must they do penance for a mis.. demeanor of which they have never been guilty? Must they, when Arizo- ma becomes a state be taxed to pay a governor and judges they can have no voice in electing? < < In conclu- sion wish to say the Mormons ask no favors; all they want is simple jus tice.
