The duke was of course lit tie annoyed at such an unceremoni- ous interruption, and looking up he asked, "Who are your 'I am Di- onysius." was the singular answer. "Well, what do you wanti" "Your life" My lifef" "Yes; l am sent to kill you" "veyy odd" said the duke, sitting back and calmly gazing at the intruder. Not at all, for l am Dionysius," said the stranger, ''and I must put you to death"

Our Nation... ......

It has been proposed lately to orna- ment the tip of the flagstaff used in the regular army of the United States with the representation in metal of the bald eagle, which is the emblem of our republic. The staffs of .regi- mental standards now terminate with bikes. The eagle has already done duty in this way upon the standards of other nations, and par ticularly upon those of Rome and France. The American eagle, how ever, is a different variety from the eagle of France and the Roman re- public. It is of an American variety the bald" or white headed eagle. The ordinary name of the bird is a misnomer. It Is not bald, but sim ply whiteheaded, the feathers on the head and neck of adult specimens being snowy white.
 The honor of first naming this bird as the emblem of the United States belongs to John J. Audubon, the naturalist, whose name will be for ever associated with our bird life. He called the bald eagle the Wash ington eagle" because, he said, Washington was brave, as the eagle is. Like 1t. too, he was the terror of his enemies, and his fame, extending from pole to pole, resembles the soar ings of the mightiest of the feathered tribe. If America has reason to be proud of her Washington, so she has to be proud of her great eagle" The bald eagle, with wings extended or displayed proper" as it is called in heraldry. was made the emblem of the United States in the year 17s5.- Exchange.

HOW to peal with .crool..~ .~

'"There are various ways of mak- ing crooked things straight" said Captain Reilly, of the Tenderloin pre- cinct. It was the day after the po- lice captains dinner, when the genial captain. smoking a fragrant Havana, made this remark, and his ideas of things generally, and police business especially. were of the brightest hue
 "Yes," he said, there are various ways of making crooked things straight" he repeated, but there is only one way to make the crook feel that the law has its eyes open day aud night That way is to nip him every time he is found where he ought not to be-when, for instance, he can't give good account of him self. Every man Is innocent until he is proved guilty, but when man who has no visible means of support and whose record is bad meanders about in quarters that are not his naturally, the suspicion is just on the part of the police that he isn't seek ing to do good for the poor-or the rich either. for that matter.

French sohoolboy Friendship

A delightful feature of French life is the close. brotherly intimacy of men lasting from early boyhood throughout life. The thee" and 'thou" of schoolboy days are re- stunned after years of absence. A Frenchman will make sacrifices for his friends as alertly as an English man for his betrothed. One comrade may have succeeded in the race of life, the other may have failed. The fraternal bonds remain unbroken.
 Heart still speaks to heart as in that careless time when the pair sat side by side in the classroom. The closeness of the marriage tie among ourselves interferes with this kind of friendship. In France it frequently happens that to his friend, and his friend only. man can freely unbur- den himself. .-Fortnightly Review.

Mining Intelligence.

Butler and Wright have just made another shipment of six tons of ore from their Little Jessie mine.
 A party of Boston capitalists ar rived here few days since to inves- tigate some mining property with a view of purchasing.
 The proposition to establish a plant in Prescott to treat ores by the Macarthur Forrest process is beginning to take tangible shape.
 Two more mining deals, in which the purchase price runs away up into the upper tens of thousands, IS on the tapis.
 T. A. Conlee continues his devel- opment work on the Johnson mine near Stanton. The mine continues to look we'll as development pro- gresses.
 The proposition to start plant in Prescott for the treatment of ore by the cyanide pro cess is assuming shape and the prospect is favorable for its success.
 The teaching works and shelter at Copper Basin are running regu- larly now, and shipments of coppe I are being made. About thirty-five men are employed at the mines and reduction plant.
 w. w. Horton arrived on yester- day's train from London to examine the Lone Star mine. Four other gentlemen who are also interested in proposed deal for this property are expected in a few days. The mine is we'll opened up and shows a large quantity of good ore.
 The statement made by core spondent to the effect that the McArthur--Forrest process had proven a failure in the treatment of Crowned King ore is denied. The rumor probably arose from the fact that when in readiness to put it to a test on a large scale it was dis covered that they had an insufficient supply of cynaide on hand and they were compelled to await the arrival of an additional supply from Phe' nix, which is now en route to the mine. Contrary to it's proving a failure, the tests made of the ore and concentrates proved hi- hly sat isfactory, and those having the mat ter in charge have no doubt what ever of the complete success of the treatment of the ore and concen trates from this mine.

The BalIG Game.

The second game of baseball be- tween the Prescott and Whipple hines took place yesterday and re- suited in a victory for the soldiers by a score of s to 6. Of the game as a whole it was the most interesting and ably contested one ever played in Prescott. The successive defeat of Prescott by the boys in blue has attained such conviction among lovers of the national game that nothing else is ) he expected when ever they cross bats than what has been chronicled. In measure this is due to a total disregard of play ing in unison and too much of the individual feeling it seems still haunts the town boys. If they will tumble on themselves and get out and practice on the infeld, and obey what good shrewd captain will out line for the club, and not the man, though the latter may not reach first, better and more satisfactory game will result. Prescott has the best nine of the two, but they play pure, hard ball like nice old inno- cent people and when the eastern boys come along. 1t is humorous to watch the bewilderment of our ''stayers" as they get all mixed up in their ideas and the game. Of the Prescott players none deserve mere praise for masterly pitching than Ed. York. Had it not been for wild throwing to bases his game would have been faultless. John Aitken's back stop work was excellent and but one passed ball is against him. York and Aiken are the Charley Hosses of the team and they pull hard and for all there is in it. The tandem team-Jones, Stew art and Derwin-did good field work and scooped everything. At the bat, however, Derwin displayed great deal of muscle i" striking, but weakness in hitting the electric like ball. Crook Marion made his debut as a bronco, and did not kick out of the traces once in the game. Jersey and Miles, experienced and trained steeds. trotted the ball way out to Sam Miller's pasture, but when 1t came to throwing acted like alfalfa colts. Ferguson on first played fair and only lacks the breaking cart to become docile. Of the Whipples they are good and steady players and take advantage of everything. The battery oftwins-the Slezingers are always ''in it' and play very amusing game of ball both ways. Ginder in left field judges poorly, but usually makes bulls-eye. In right and center Blocker and Oleary had little to do. but we guess they are all right. Long John Riley has his usual smile and must have been raised on the diamond. Speiss on second is general and with Harris and Peacock on the staff makes a hard line to break through. The at tendance was large and many of the fair sex graced the grounds, whic b had the effect of making the boys prance and play their prettiest. 4 game is on the boards for next Sun. day, when, it is said, a professional will handle the ribbons of the Pres l colt team
