UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA,

There is no institution within the borders of the territory of greater inn portance or of more value to Arizona than the territorial University located at Tucson. This institution forms the nucleus of what will soon be the great seat of learning for the young men and women of Arizona, and is entitled to all of the encouragement and assistance that the people can give it.
 The main building is handsome and substantial one, erected at cost of S40, . 900, and two cottages are now in course of erection that will cost about 5000. The University is also well supplied with the necessary apparatus for the scientific courses, and there is no reason why any person should leave Arizona for the purpose of acquiring an educa- ton.
 The faculty is composed oi persons with long experience in the work, and taken altogether the University of Arizona is credit to the territory, and the funds expended for it's erection and maintainsnce is money wisely spent.
 Chancellor Freeman is giving great deal of his time to the University and is devoted to the work and the interests of the institution. He is especially qualified to fill the position, and under his management the affairs of the Uni versity will soon be Tn a most satisiac- tory condition.
 The feeling that the University is a local affair is entirely wrong. Tucson has no more to do with it than any other part of the territory, and all the people should assist in building up q school of which they may justly feel proud.

==s7=-=s--=7=---==------------ Thanksgiving Thoughts.

What debt of gratitude do we owe the New England fathers for the crea- ton of Thanksgiving day! The Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock in 1920, and celebrated their landing with prayers and hymns of thanksgiving for their safe deliverance from the dangers of the voyage. The noble sentiment of grati- tude which fired their hearts on that bleak December morning gave birth to the New England Thanksgiving day, which since 1862 has become national institution, designated by presidential proclamation, the>time being generally fixed for it on the fourth Thursday in November.
 It is an inspiring thought that this, our only religious national festival des- ignAted by the presidential proclama- ton, is a Thanksgiving day. For grati- tude ever brings blessings to the pos sessors of grateful hearts.
 We have other national festivals and other religious ones, made so by legal enactmenis, but Thanksgiving day is unique in being at once national, reli- gious, legil and purely American-an emanatiCn from the heart and soul of America. E. V. BATTEY.

The Best Recipe for Rest.

There is nothing which will give a chance for rest to overtired nerves so surely as a simple religious faith in the overruling, wise and tender providence which has us in it's keeping It is in chafing against the conditions of our lives that VIC tire ourselves immeasur- ably. It is in being anxious about things we cannot help that we often do the most of our spending.
 A simple faith in God which practi- cally and every moment, and not only theoretically and on Sundays, rests on the knowledge that he cares for us at least as much as we care for those who are the dearest to us, will do much to give the tired nerves the feeling of the bird in its nest. Do not spend what strength you have, like the clematis, in climbing on yourself, but lay hold on things that are eternal, and the peace of them will pass into your soul like heal ing balm. Put yourself in the great everlasting currents, and taen you can rest on your oars, and let those currents bear you ou their strength. Anna C. Brackett.

A WALL FROM THE MUGwUMPs,


 As was to be expected, and as has universally been it's custom, the Herald rushes 10 the defense of its master, George Christ. The Herald wears the individual, and, of course, no one ex- pected i, 10 pursue different course, But the HsTald's attitude is further evidence that the Christ iaction-small though 1t is--does not want harmony. Rule or ruin is it's policy, and the Herald voices it's sentiments. If @ club is or ganized this paper is of the belle. that it should be a REPUBLICAN club, and we do not doubt that very large majority of the party is of the same opinion. But harmony is one of the things that the Herald does not want. That newspaper and Would be Dictator Christ are not in harmony with the Republican party Of Arizona, and are now and always have been the most notorious mugwumps and bolters in the territory. Yet they talk about organizing a club and expect Repub- lIcans to join it.
 The tail never yet wagged the dog, and George Christ and the Herald can not dictate to true-blue Republicans a course for them to pursue. If George Christ and the Herald want to join a Republican club, and hereafter act with thai party, we are willing to bid them welcome, and will do our best to make them feel at home among their strange surroundings.
 But we do not believe that the Re- publicans of Phoenix want to join q Christ Mugwump-Hsraid club, and the only way to come together that we know of is for that unholy combination to forsake it's sins and become true-blue Republicans.

OLD MAMMY's RECIPE for cooking Thanksgiving turkey down south is go. ing the newspaper rounds. Old Nanny! What is she, save the gun, whence radiates that cordial hospitality which warns one half of the Union with it's peculiar open -he8rtedness. But Nanny is not literary: so the papers print her recipe for her. New England nnd northern turkeys are all regulated at length by Marion Harland, Juliet Corson, Miss Parloa and other proies- sionals. No need to repeat their in structions, so available to every one. Thus armed with both methods, none can plead ignorance of how to cook tc- days gobler.

ReIIgIon i'm the Pew.

The spirit of Christ in the pew would insure much better preaching in the pull pit Perhaps the Master may have real. ized how important is the service of good hearing when he repeated 80 often the words, '"Take heed how ye hear. The grace of receiving is the compile ment of the grace of giving the word. What stirs to activity the mind and heart of preacher and so kindles the fires of eloquence as the hunger look in the faces of a congregation.
 On the other hand, the most careful preparation and the most fervent desire for utterance of g. truta which has pos sessed the preachers soul count for little when he looks into the face of men like Brother Nodof and his weary relatives; when he turns toward Sister Listless, who is carelessly turning the leaves of her hymnal. is the preacher dull? Has he brought little beaten oil to the sanctu- ary? Even so, the good nearer will dis cover an amount of truth which would surprise the preacber himself.-Christian Advocate.

so Child Ever Forgets Having Hear. -.. .
 Parents Pray.

so Child Ever Forsets Having Ee.sS -..- Parents Pray.
 While we are to use common sense in every direction respecting child, the first thing is to strive for its conversion. and there is nothing more potent than family prayers No child ever gets over having heard his parents pray for him We had many sound thrashings when a boy, but the most memorable scene of all was father and mother at morning and evening prayers, Your son may go to the ends of the earth, and run through the whole catalogue of transgression, but he will remember the family altar, and it will be check and call and perhaps his redemption
 Family prayers are often of no use. Perhaps they are too hurried. We have so much before us of tho days work that We hustle the children together. We get half through the chapte; before the fami- ly are seated We read as if we were reading for wager. We drop on our knees, and are in the second or third sen. tence before they all get down, 1t is an express train, with amen for the drst depot
 Better have given them a kiss all around, 1t would have taken less time and would have been tore acceptable to God and them.
 Family prayers often fail in adapted ness Do not read for the morning les son genealogical chapter or about Sam sons setting the foxes tails on fire. For all the good your children get from such reading you might us well have read a Chinese almanac. Rather give the story of Jesus and the children climbing into his arms, or the lad with the loaves and fishes, or tbe sea of Galilce dropping to sleep under Christ's lullaby. Stop and ask questions Make the exercises so in- teresting that little Johnny will stop playing with his shcestrings and Jennie will quit rubbing the cat's fur the wrong way. Let the prayer be pointed and made up of small words, and no wise in- formation to the Lcrd about things he knows without your telling him. Let the children feel they are prayed for Have hymn if any of you can sing Let the season be spirited, appropriate and gladly solemn.--Dr. Talmage in Christian Herald

 IL sometimes looks as if man ia partial tO large investments, where, for in stance, a number can associate them selves together without expenditure of ready money and depending upon the vAclIiating conditions of trade, too often sink themselves few or many thous. ants of dollars in debt. Small outlays at a time could not do this. Human success IS made up of appropriations If small investments,
 Solomon says: "le that despiseth little things shall perish by tttle and little" Thus it is, the success of every man depends upon the manner in which the small events are dealt with. An illustration is just at hand of two men who have not made the most available from the source drawn upon, but who are in fair way to enjoy the good things of this world, The two men spoken of are J. A, Ryan, foreman of the mantel and tile department of W. w. Montague's mammoth establish ment at 309 Market street, and J. A. Helmufh, conductor of the First street car-line, from Market to Fourth and Townsend streets, San Francisco. For ten years Mir. Ryan has occupied his present position and all his life has been clerk. Mr. Helmuth has always been laborer, and was first employ ed as conductor here three years ago. Each of these men he'd made several single-dollar investments in The Louis jana State Lottery, winning, now and then, small sums that about paid for the outlay, and never, until the drawing of September Sth rolled around, did they win anything big. At this draw ing each held the twentieth of ticket No. ,522, which won them 5000 apiece. It is pleasure to note that each IS making permanent Improvements on property in this city.-San Francisco l iCal.) Examiner.

Robbers.

Butte, March 25.-[Special. Butte is
fast acquiring an unenviabio reputation as
resort for thieves, robbers, himfammsrs
and criminals in general. of every charac-
ter and degree. Two successful safe rob-
berries have been chronicled within ten
days, and the cracksmen are still at large.
This morning, about four o'clock, the bold
est and most successful robbery that ever
occurred in this vicinity Was contaminated
in saloon at 25 Arizona street, South
Butte. While the proprietor, Gervais Thi-
bodeau, and three other men were sitting
by the stove in conversation two masked
men entered with drawn revolvers and
commanded Mr.. Thibodeau to open the
safe. Under the circumstances he obeyed
with alacrity, and handed about $1,000
in lawful currency Of the realm to the gen.
tlemen at the safe end of the guns. The
robbers then backed out of the door and
departed with the Doodle. The alarm was
given at once and officers started in pur-
suit, but as is usual in such cases the rob-
bers made good their escape.

Sensational Bribery Charges in the Michi-
gan Legislature.
LANSING, Mich, March 25.-The demo-
Gratis have unearthed what they believe to
be an attempt at bribery in the state SEN
ate. At the beginning Of the session the
senate was composed of an equal number
of domocrats and republicans. with three
patrons of industry holding the balance of
power. The latter voted with the demo-
Gratis, but one day. when the republicans
were away, the democrats helped them
selves out by a contest for two seats,
and tied the combined votes of the pat
ons and republicans. With Senator
Wilcox, who was elected on fusion patron
and democratic ticket, the democrats had
control, but Wilcox went over to the repub-
licans Since then both parties have been
struggling for mastery, as a redistricting of
the state hinges ON it.
Early in the session Wilcox threw out
vague hints about the republicans Offering
him money, and to-day the democrat CEN
tral committee pinned him down, and he
admitted being approached and offered
$50, 900, to be divided, If he could get two
others to stand with him. He refused to
give the name of the briber, and denies that
he has touched the money. An investiga-
tion will be called for Monday.

became swollen and livid. When spoken
by the Don, the Humboldt was in a disa-

hausted they had to be hoisted aboard the
Don. They had been ill for three months.
