WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-Among the speakers
IN Tammany TIall on the Fourth Of July was
the Delegate In Congress- from Arizona 1t
was the frat timc that a Delegate from that
Territory had ever addressed Tummnny. He
wore neeliHd shirt no waistcoat and a thin
summer suit. His hair was close cropped and
streaked with gray. He had a sandy nous
tache. wcll silvcrcd. His eyes were blue and
bright. and his manner nonchalant and unas-
suining. He seemed to have brought the hot
air OF Arizona with him and all its freedom OF
manner. There was little pcrsrration on his
bronzed face as he addressed the warriors Of
Tammany. He had a voice roughcned at mass
meetin gs In wild mountain cahons and craGEy
mining camps What he said was said with q
vim that aroused his hearers.
The orator was Marcus Aureus Smith OF Ari-
xona. No Delegate from n Territory has over
awakened more interest In tho House. When
the irrigation or the Indian policy Of the Gov
eminent In under discussion he invariably as
sorts himself. Nothing that touches the inter-
ests OF Arizona escapes his attention, Other
members complain bee use they cannot got
time to sneak. Smith never complains. He
snatches time y the torolock. Helms establish
ed q reputation for sense. Men yield him the
floor willingly. because they know that he will
throw light upon tho subject in dispute He
talks like an orator from n m ming camr He
thoroughly understands his subject. and never
wastes words upon It. Ne,er making long
speeches. he makes good ones. and the House
listens and npplauds.
Marcus Ia at his best when the Indian phi
lanthropists are bringing their influence to
bear upon Congress. He tenrs prevalent sys-
tens OF Indian education to tatters. believing
thatth Governments money is wasted. In
dian schools. in his eyes. ought to be supple
mented with the employment Of the savage
after education. The worst Indians. he says.
arc those who are educated. but idle. They
return TO their tive heaths and relapse into
barba rism. causing tho Government more
trouble than unehucated Indians.
Marcus has enlnently practical views on all
Territorial matters. and has an eminently
practical way OF explaining them to the House.
There Is no more popular man upon the floor.
He Is rar.lj absent FROM the sittirCs OF the
House. and though he has no vote. has inilu-
enced It's legislation as much, II not more.
than any other Territorial Delegate in years.
His career ia the career OF q typical American.

Emperor William has given much dIs.
satisfaction to a number Of his subjects
because Of the numerous death warrants
which he has signed since his accession
to the throne, and it is pointed out that
the seventy-far from tending 10 dimin-
ish crimes OF violence-has merely I'D to
their increase.
Neither bis grandfather, old Emperor
William, nor the predecessor o! the latter,
King Frederick William w; could ever
be induced TO sign death warrants. lsncO
capital punishment had for almost half
century become obsolete Ia Prussia.

n Wn story OF Heroism ana othsr
ThinEs.


Things,
A certain regiment had for colonel
probably as strict discipliuaran as ever
wore epaulets There had been consid.
cradle difficulty on account Of the per
sistent and constant foraging by his men
Complaints came in every day on ac.
count of the depredstious, and the coll
onel at last became so annoyed that one
day on dress parade it was announced
that the first man caught poaching from
the citizens should be shot.
Peter Elder was a member OF the regi-
ment He was a stout, strapping fellow,
and was known to be the most reckless
forager of the lot. He had spent week
after week in the guard house for his
chicken stealing, but it did not stop him.
He always had some plausible story 90
tell when caught at his favorite amuso-
ment, and his comrades all wondered
whether this last menace on the part OF
the colonel would have any deterrng eff
feet.
Pete one day in broad daylight was
seen walking into camp with small
sized dead lamb hanging over his shout
der. He made no attempt whatever 70
hide it, but marched boldly toward his
quarters His course led him directly
past the colonel's tent. That officer knew
Pete well. The rascal had in fact been
so often before the colonel that they had
ample chance to become acquainted.
The colonel saw him at this time, and
he called out: "Hello. there, Pete, what
have you got on your shoulder"
Jest got young sheep, colonel said
Pete.
Where did you get it2' asked the
colonel.
Jest down the road, about two mile,
colonel
Did you buy it, Peter"
mo sir; didn't buy no sheep"
Well, did you steal itf"
"Well, now, see here, colonel, / ain't
goin' to tell you no lie was coming

Little snatch of ancient song
What las made thee live laBgg
Flying on thy wiugs ~ rhyme
Lightly down the delIhs OF Iiae.
Telling nothing strange OF rare.
Scarce thought or image there,
Nothing but the old. old tale
OF hapless lovers wall;
Offspring u an idle hour.
Whence has come thy lasting power!
By what turn ~ rhythm or phrase.
BY what subtle careless grace.
Can thy music charm our ears.
After full three hundred yearsl
Little song since thou vert born.
In the Reformation morn.
How much greal has passed away.
shattered or by slow decay.
stately piles in ruins crunbled.
Lordly honses lost aud humbled,
Thrones aud realms in darkness hurled,
Noble flags forever fUrled.
Misest schemes hy statesmen spun.
Time has seen them enc by one
Like the leaves of autumn fall
A little song Outliyss them all.
