enth holds professors chair at the
Alma Mater; the eighth is identified
with the politics of his state; the
ninth, the most promising of them
all had inherited from his father all
immense fortune, and had during
these years travelled extensively.
He had, therefore, never been pres
ent at any Of their annual reunions,
but is expected to join them on this
occasion. A belated train brings
him to the city and into their COM
pany, at the moment when they are
drinking the health and praising the
noble qualities of the absentee.
He is warmly greeted by his
friends, who, however, find that he
hrs changed considerably. Though
apparently the same genial and
brilliant fellow whom they had
known in times past, he seems to
have become infected with the black
est kind of pessmism. He fiercely
attacks the very civilization which
they cherish so dearly. A contro-
versy arises, which eliminates in a
peculiar wager. Rust, the pessimist,
claims that our whole civilization
is a huge "Lie )" that this ellie"
has permeated and poisoned society
to such degree that no one could
speak the truth, even if he desired,
for any length of time, without
harming, if not destroying. his repu-
tation and business prospect. This
is emphatically denied by his friends,
who, on their part, claim that for
one week, at least, they would
pledge themselves to adhere strictly
to the truth. The wager provides,
therefore, that if they adhere to the
truth for one week, Rust may pay
eight thousand dollars but if one Of.
them break his word, he must pay
one thousand dollars. The money
is to go to rome benevolent institu-
ton, which the winner shall desig-
nate. 1t is further agreed that any
member may withdraw his obliga-
ton on payment of one thousand
dollars during the week, if he finds
telling the truth too expensive.
The result was as predicted by
Rust. Disaster in some form over
took each of them. In the last chap
ter, Rust informs themvthat he had
offered the wager, not to win their
money, but to give them an object
lesson. All the miseries from which
society is suffering, says he, are the
logical consequences of the pre-
vailing untruthfulness. Instead OF
trying to model the world, and to
better conditions by assailing con-

will learn that they prosper much
better with the truth than with un-
truth and that while for short time
they might be the losers, in the end
they will win confidence and make
up for the loss.
The lightning which illumines the
path of the wanderer on stormy
night shows him the precipice into
which he is about to fall thus,
"Who Lies ?" reveals the dangers
which our present civilization is
fraught, and the root from which
most of it's evils grow. 1t suggests
the only remedy: to speak the truth
and nothing but the truth, regard
less Of consequences.
"Who Lies ?" will be found not
only amusing and interesting but,
the reader will admire it for it's
courage and fearlessness. 1t is
deserving ola wide circle of readers.

CONGRESSMAN BLAND is again hope
full. He believes that there will be
a free silver bill passed at this sess-
ion. But with President Harrison
in The White House the bill will new
er become a law.-Leavenworth
Times.
Here is Republican evidence that
Benjamin Harrison is hostile to free
silver coinage, but he was the rep
resentative of a party that put this
before the people in 1888 on the
question of metal money.
The Republican party is in favor
of the use of both gold and silver as
money, and condemns the policy Of
the Democratic administration in it's
efforts to demOneClZe.
Put the fact that, when this part
of the 1888 platform was written,
silver had been demoneJized for fit
teen years, and which was done by
Republicans, alongside of such utter
ances, and you can see the janus-faced
dealings of the Republican party.
How beautifully did the Republic
an convention straddle the silver
question We will now watch with
interest the action of those free sill
yer Republicans who said they
would not support the Republican
ticket if the convention did not
come out strong for free silver.
DAVID OvERMEYER, who has been
talked of as a fusion candidate for
congressman-at-large, says in an
interview that, should he be elected
on fusion ticket, his position in
congress would be that of Demo-
ocrat. Now, will you fusionists let
up on Overmeyer?
WHAT a scene in these days of
boasted plenty and christian charity!

The Raca Tronlx

The exhibition of race speed at the track near the University yesterday evening IS but an example of the many contests that will take place there. That Tucson should take back seat in such matters is not becoming. There iS no more suitable and appropriate To eaton to make a successful fair ground and race track than at Tucson, and as soon as money matters put on an easier countenance, such men of ente rprise as Rsid and Vail and others who do take an interest in such matters along with the many others who will fall into line and aid the cause along, Tucson will witness a start in this direction of amusement and practical benefit that will be carried through vigorously and surely culminate in success. The eli mate of Australia Tn the interior IS iden- tical with Arizona, and there is DO greater open ar health seeking people than Australia, and Arizo lans are in the same boat with the same opportuni- ties; so let Tucson take a hand in this, one of the needed recreatIoOs of coun- ty whose assessed wealth is tabulated into the millions and whose county seat IS a populous city, growing more and more populous with features of resi- dencial. attractions.

NOTES BY UNDERSTANDINGS.
Where the shekels Came From.

EDITOR OF THE DAILY CITIZEN:
 My eye caught the following among the items in your local column this morning:
 Theefscts of the late circ IS on the Indians are manifest Tn their seeming enthusiasm to pur- chase saddles and bridles. Since Sells big show raded in this city no less thaa 50 Indians have made purchases of equine trapIings. They seem to gasher the shekels from somewhere and prove themsel ges cash customers.
 My sole object in quoting the item and sending You this, Is to relieve your mind as to where the ''shekels" come from, As a part of our work on the h. dian school ranch during the past sea- son, we purchased new Daling machine and lnducted our boys into the mystery of baling hay. They did their work in such way that one or two gentlemen in Tucson who kDeW about it were pleased to commend them very highly. This report coming to the ears of Gen.. Thomas F. Wilson and his son Calvert, who are engaged in causing the desert just east of Casa Grande to blossom as the rose," they employed our boys to prepare for shipment the hay on their large ranch tEere. Yesterday morning Il AL eANAC yOAAACy NtONA lO DnA OuI uOW the boys were coming on with the work, and to encourage them by reminding them that the reputation of the Indian school was at stake. They have job that will give each of them near $50; and the general will have lot of fine hay as well baled as was ever loaded in- to car.
 From the ranch I made my way to [ 0io N.,r IT found OIr enierprlsiDg Tucson millers, the Goldsmith, temporarily established, buying wheat from the Pima Indians for their mill in Tucson. MT. Goldsmith is not only gathering up wheat, but has bsen engagrd also ia picking up tue Pima tongue, and also few items con corning the Indians, valuable as infor- nation. He estimates that they will have this year S40.000 worth of wheat to sell, besides what IS retained for home consumption. From somewhat careful inquiry at the two stores there he has learned that the Indians as a rule do not spend the money which they receive for their wheat, but carry home with them ninety out of every hundred dol lars paid to them. One young fellow, not SO many years since a school boy,
 
 had 5l290 in cash at home an ] he would like to turn an Eonest penny by buying for him, receiving an advance of five cents on the hundred pounds.
 One of the boys on the baler at Casa Grande was paid S31 dollars for his work before leaving school. That money, be tells me, hs carried home and invested ID cattle.
 II fvt1c 4haf I hove vOur mInd as to where the shekels come from, but also suggested to you the pos si0ility that these Indians, with the right sort of propulsion and plenty of it, may yet contribute to the general good as laOCreTs ana producers.
 Respectfully,
 HOWARD BILLMAN.

Badly luhbed.

Word was received last night by tele- phone from the Huachuca reservoir. that Henry Hollensteln had been nearly Sheriff Kelton at once took team and buggy and started for Hunters cany on, where he arrived at 10 o'clock last night. He had no trouble in locating Kelly, and arrived in town with him this morning about 10 o'clock He was taken before Justice Alvord, and his examination was set for this afternoon at 2 o'clock.
 The trouble grew out of a wood con- tract which was taken by the Kelly brothers at a low fignre, and on which they lest money. It is claimed that they were indebted to Hollenstein and that the latter was taking about them, at least that is the defendants sIde of the story Kelly met Holle1stein down the canyon as be WAS riding home on his wagon, and proceeded to chastise him with an ash club about four feet long and two inches in diameter. The first blow knocked him off the wagon and as he lay stunned on the ground he kept beating him until hs revived him. Hol- lenstein, as soon as he recovered, started to run. Kelly did not pursue him, but cried out that he would let him off this time but would see him again. Hollen- stein is b ally bruised.

Bitten bVR a Skunk.

A young man, Mexican, arrived in Prescott Saturday to consult with physi: clans, he having been bitten on the arm by a skunk while aslesp at a ranch twe- hty miles north of Ash Fork. He was advised to go to Chicago and take the Pdsteur treatment, which he will do.
 As men being bitten by these animals IS not an unusual occurrence of lata years, and several deaths from rabbies brought on by their bites have occurred in various parts of the territory, people whO sleep out should be on the look out for them and persons living in isol- ated cabins should guard against their entrance. Some time in 1882, a skunk entered the cabin of Sam ROwley, in Williamson Valley, near Prescott. Sam kicked the intruder out, but as he did 1t the animal bit through the toe of Sam's boot, sticking its deadly teeth into his foot. Sam was a powerful man, he was taken with the rabies and it took four or five stout men to hold him. He dIed at the Pionear Hotel within four days of the tine he was taken sick Courier.

City Real Estate,

Tucson is not virtually in the spasm of real estate values which today rise to fiighty heights of financial assump- ton and then in few days take back summersault into figures of depression. A walk along Stone avenue and other streets of ths city disclosed blocks of buildings and real estate which two and half years ago were purchased at a certain figure and since then the prices have doubled. One transfer of real estate on Stone avenue that was pur- chased for 5000 at ore time, has been transferred for S6,000. This Is a real estate weather gauge, showing the in dications of ealthy real estate market csrrying wholesome prices which speaks in terms of commendation for a city that really and truly has bright fu- ture aad when brought to the test of competition wi bs found in the front rank as one claiming the Arizona premI- um in finances and population.
