Field of the Cloth of Gold.

Field of the cloth of gold was SC called from the extravaganza and dis play attendant upon a meeting of Henry VIII, of England, and Francis l., of France, in June, l53o, The kings met in the field near the small town of Andres, in France, which was owned by England, and the meeting washeld by the request of Francis l., who desired to gain the friendship of Henry to aid him in his projects for curbing the power of his great rival, Charles V., of Germany. The ceremonial was under the direction of Cardinal Wolsey, and the noblemen of France and England vied with each other in the gorgeous decoration of themselves, their. banners and tents.

A Bisbee Incident.

Ed PRosPEcToR :-The laying Of the 4 inch pipe for carrying compressed cir through the mines, is now finished and in working order. While testing the pipe, the plug flew out of the end and the rush of air upset one of the men aud blew the water out of forty feet of ditch onto him. This brought on attack of the grippe, from which he is just recovering.
 After the job was almost completed and full pressure turned on, NIT. Chas Thede, the electrician, was tightening a joint, union split and the rush of air blew the gentleman heels over head, and landed him at full length on a station, The din ana conius- ion was stirring. Mir. c. H. Montgom- cry, who was experimenting the job, displayed grea. energy and activity making his way through 8 side drift The professor picked himself up with a whoop and lit out down the main drift with the manners that would have taken the conceit out of Geroni- mo. After quiet had been restored, it was discovered that no one had been iniured. What was supposed 10 be blood was red lead which was blown from the pipe into ths professors fare A. B. c.

He walked in and put down a dollar, a silver dollar that clanked like car riage wheel in the stiffness of the sane tum. Said he:
 ''Therc, take it and credit my sub scription, quick"
 Whats the matter?" we said.
 ''Wen," said he, Hast week I was fishing out sn Spring creek; thunder storm came up, and it rained and thundered, and lightning flashed all around me. I crawled into a hollow log to escape it. The rain made the log swell up until I was fastened in and nearly squeezed to death. I be- gan to think of all my sins and to re- pent.

From Dos Cabesas.

EDITOR PRosPEcToR The winter is passing away Every pleasantly here. The lowest temperature in town was 16 degrees above zero, and on the mountains 24. At Wilcox and in Sulphur Spring valley generally the reading was lower. Stock are looking better than the baroness of the range would lead one to expect. Of late, valley cattle have gone to the hillsides They are very thin and weak, but though there does not seem to be much for them t0 eat, they improve. Feed everywhere is scant and as we have not had enough snow or rain to give spring grass, the outlook is not cheer ing. Heretofore the high mountains have been a last resort for starving cattle, but last summer about the only rain which fell there came from cloud bursts. Great sheets of water furrowed the steep slope and left the grass roots exposed without wetting more than the surface of the soil. The result is that there is little feed available. Bear grass and mescal seem to be the main plants depended upon. Up O the middle Of December oak and mountain mahogany leaves were eaten, but cold wind blighted them. The main hope for cattlemen now must center upon spring rains. If these fail to come, there must be heavy losses in stock. All EHay come right yet however. I do not see any dead animals around, though old cows with unweaned calves show their bones plainly.
 There is not much mining work being done but assessment work was generally attended to. The grip has been going it's rounds, but fortunately no deaths occurred.

HOW HE READ PRAYER.
A Good Story at the Expense of Prince

A Good Story at the Expense of Prince
 George. of Wales.
 A good story is current in London. says the New York Recorder, concern ing Prince George, of Wales, who was recently in command of the British cruiser Thrush, belonging to the north Atlantic squadron. It was the prince's duty as commander of the vessel to read prayers to the assembled crew every Sunday morning, his secretary reading the lessons.
 One day brother officer ventured to suggest at the irresistible that the cap tain would do well to study the prayers little more.
 ''Why, I read 'em every Sunday'' was the princess astonished reply.
 ''Yes, sir; but you do not read them quite correctly" answered the officer.
 ''I don't!' exclaimed the prince.
 Not quite, sir. You invariably say: We have done those things which we ought to have done, and we have left undoIe those things which we ought not to have done Of course, it is very fattering to us all and the ships com pany, but"
 The speaker got no further, for his remarks were drowned in a roar of laughter led by the prince himself.

An Italian Defines Flirting.

An Italian author, Ernesto Zenuti, in an article entitled "Americanisimo Florentino," in which he shows a re- markable appreciation of the charms of the American girl, defines irritation as "a fascinating and delightful form of intimate friendship between beings of a different sex, in which there is much of tenderness, much affection, much CO., quetry, but in which there is not-must not be-a spark of real, true love. The ltalians," he adds, whether from the influence of climate, temperament or education, cannot firt."

Frighirui s;it pwrecks.

Staunch ships strike and founder, the fierce winds and mountainous waves sweep noble mariners "hearts of oak" to shipwreck and to death, yet that does not prevent the lubberliest landsman from riskiug his life on the stormy Atlantic in the role of tourist or commercial traveller. But if he shall reach his destination safely, he will scarcely have escaped some of the qualms of seasickness unless he takes with him Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, that inimitable specific for nausea. Bad water on long trips is a threat to the voyager, but this may be deprived
 in a great measure of its disordering effects upon the stomach, bowels and liver by the Bitters. Against the prejudicisl effects of malaria, bad diet, fatigue and exposure it is always efficacious. It averts, moreover, rheumatism and kidney complaints. Don't travel on sea or land without it. wIm

At SchieHeIiM Hall.

Standing room only was the rule last nigh: at the play by local talent, entitled, "Nevada or the Lost Mine" and the immense audience was amply repaid for having to wait an hour for the curtain 10 ring up. The play, as the title indicates, is laid in a mining camp. Miss Nellie Walsh, as "Moselle the waip was the bit of the evening. Every one in the audience fell in love with her before the play was half over. She acted her part in a manner that would reflect credit upon older heads of long experience on the stage. Miss Kstie Walsh, as Agnes Fairiee, acted a difficult part in an admirable manner, while Annie Walsh, as Mother Merton sustained her character in a man ner that would deceive a stranger most completely as to her real age. Nevada the wanderer, was probably the best sustained character among the diff cult roles that had been assigned 10 the young men. Dan Hennessy acted this part in a most realistic manner Mike Hennessy, as the old miner, also acted difficult part in q very natural manner. Ralph Smith was at home as travelling artist of "Busted's Balm which cures all ills. The Chinaman by Fred Hawke, caused the audieace to roar more than a score 6f times. The black miner, by Fred Adair, was very good and pleased the house by his make up, and always being on hand at opportune moments. George Rafferty as the detective, acted his pant we'll. The two miners represented by George Allison and Cbas Adair were rather difficult parts tor young men to take successfully. who had not slept on a iiiree-cornered rock on a side hill Tor half life time, but they were very natural.
 The entire evening passed without an error or hitch and reflects credit upon tEe entire company. The time and close attention tha' i. must have required to memorize sp thoroughly such an amoun. of matter, was ap- preciated by all who heard and en- joyed the unexceptional rendering of most difficult play.

The repugnance of my asso- ciates to share with me this table luxury gave me frequent advantage of fresh meat soup, which contributed no doubt to my comparative immunity from seurvy." Again he writes: ''Our diet will be only stock of meat bis- cult, to which l shall add for myself a few rats chopped up and frozen into tallow balls Star.

Legitimate American Interests Arc to be
Protested There.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1s.-The San Fran
cisco dispatch reciting the trouble expe-
rienced by American nero aants on the
Gilbert Islands was shown to Secretary
]. w. Foster. The United States has
commercial agent on the island, but he
has made no representations of this kind
to ths department OF state. The secre-
tary says that early in the present year
the department received a communica-
tion from King Tebureimoa Of the Gil
bert Islands praying that the United
States establish q protectorate over the
islands.
The department did not act upon the
application, as IL has been the policy of
the United States to decline to extend its
territory by such means. The British
protectorate over the Glbert Islands, has.
in the case OF the group including Buto-
ritori, been repeatedly repudiatsd by the
native ruler.
Certain aspects OF the case cause IL to
resemble the Samoan controversy. IL
may be assumed that all legitimate Amer
ican interests In tho islands will be fully
protected.
