If numerical preponderance of the male
over the female sex be taken as a sign of
a newly developing country, the nation
would appear to be in more raw state TO-
day than in 1850. The great increase in
the number of males in the last decade is
attributed by the census bureau to the
unusually heavy immigration of that
period, over three ffths being males.

A Bluff to Sue for Damages.

Miss harrington, who has already
figured as a correspondent in a divorce
suit in New Haven, Indignantly denied
the allegations of the baroness, and an
nounced her intention of at once suing
the baroness for 100000 as salve for
her wounded heart and reputation. This
threatened proceeding having served its
purpose as an advertisement, nothing
more was heard of the matter.
Last week Mr.. Osborne appeared at the
door of Miss Farrington's apartment and
demanded admission, which was refused.
He heard the voice of Mr.. Weber within,
and INDUCED himself in few remarks
which were pointed though impolite.
Mr.. Weber talked back, and so sarcas-
tic were MS replies that Mr.. Osborne
lost his temper and a shor, personal
encounter ensued. Mr.. Osborne is the
taller and heavier man of the two, but Mr.
Weber is why, active and athletic, and a
very interesting passage of arms ensued
Mr.. Weber remained in possession of the
field, and it is now announced that Mr..
Osborne has sailed for Paris and Miss Far
rIngton has followed on a steamer of an
other line to join him abroad.
Meantime it is not stated what the

Weber's Rapid Career.
Albert Weber has had rapid career as

hands Of receiver, of trus-

itself. Mr.. Weber's first wife was the
wife Of a well known dentist. She pro-
cured divorce some eight years ago and
he then married Miss Irene Perry, comic
opera singer and dancing soubrette, with
whom he nas had various lively episodes,
both in America and in Europe.

and the purse, have also been exploited in

Imnnrfanf in Rich Men

A rich man holds his wealth simply as trustee between his Maker and human ity. Unless he wants to become the slave of his money he must give it free ly until he feels Chat there is some sacri- flee in the giving. My observation for a great many years has led me to have a strong opinion on that subject. It is for the good of the man himself that he should look at the subject from this point of view. do not believe there is much philanthropy or charity in provid- ing that your money shall be given after death, when you are unable to hold it. Better give of your means as you go along through life, leaving of your wealth to others who after you will, in the exercise of their stewardship. follow the same course.-D.

He Is "In It. to Stay For Friends aud

 To the editor of TIE REPUBLICAN:
 NEW YORK, Feb. 25.--I notice by the paper, that a petition is being circulat- ed in Tucson, asking the governor to remove me from the office of Commis- sioner to the worlds fair, giving as a reason of my not being a citizen any more of the territory, and therefore, having no further interest in Arizona. Without entering the question of the governors power to remove me from an office which hold from the president of the United States, will state, that if there was any truth in the represen- tations made, common decency would have compelled me long ago to have rendered unsolicited my resignation. But the facts are to the contrary. Ari- zona is my home, all my interests and those of my family are there, and never had the intention to leave it for good. I have been here, soliciting capi- tai to invest and develop our great re- sources, and 1 have strong hopes that only short time will elapse and 1 can prove the fruit of my labors.
 Whether in doing this, am benefit ing the territory, and whether after spending lifetime in Arizona, would abandon it on the eve of statehood and prosperity, leave to the good judg ment of my friends and neighbors. They are able to certify whether 1 was or was not always battling in the front ranks for anything which tended to ad- vance the public good and interest. Does Arizona want a commissioner to stay at home? Is my place here or there? l believe that Arizona cannot have too many to represent her in the great commercial centers of the east, where superluous capital lies dormant, to be awakened to develop our re- sources, and my presence here can only be a benefit to Arizona. 1 shall soon visit Arizona, and let friends and enemies know that am "still in it."
 Yours truly,

Old Time Christmas Customs.

The custom of decorating the Christ mas tree, long since introduced into this country, was of German origin and of great antiquity. In Pennsylvania, where many of the settlers are of German de- soont, Christmas eve is observed with many of the ceremonies practiced in the Fatherland. The Christmas tree branches forth in all its splendor, and the Christ child-according to the German legend comes through the air on golden wings and causes the bough to produce in the night all manner of fruit, gilt sweetmeats, apples, nuts, etc., for the good children.
