Pronunciation of Stage People.

Mir. G. W, Dancy complains very bitterly of the disregard by actresses oi the value of the vowel sound.
 He says that "poitry" (oi dipthong was the sound recently given to poetry, and immediately diary" became "diry, while that pitfall of cockney rhyme, sters ''sure" inevitably delights the ex- pectant ear as "shOre." He has also heard "obsurd" given for absurd, while commission" "comission" and "ocur' are frequent rendering of "omis. sion. commission and occur" and "secret'' masquerades thinly disguised as "secrit." Elisions and clippings are favorite errors, particularly among rapid speakers. Take as recent illustrations 'intinit' for intimate" "s'port' and "spose," for support" and suppose"
 In the matter of "h's" actors and ac- tresscS are commendably sound, and tine very rare lapses in that quarter are invariably due to nervousness. ."-London Telegraph.

An odd Railway.

"One of the queerest railroads any where in the country" said the Rev D. S. Banks, of North Ontario, lis novel line that runs from South Ontario, in San Bernardino county, where l live. The line is seven miles long. A span of stout mules draw the car up over the road There is nothing singular about that, but it comes in on the return trip
 "The seven miles are on tilt all the way, although the track does not look like it. So when the car starts back the mules get on and take a ride, the car booming over the whole line by gravity. The mules enjoy it too They ride there in as self satisfied way as any other passenger, and the view seems equally charming North Ontario, you know, is situated at the mouth of San Antonio canyon, but there are a lot Of magnlh- cent mountains around there, One col onv-for they can scarcely be called towns-is situated on the Santa Fe road and the other on the Southern Pacific It is the seven miles of street railway that connect the two.
 "The way they get the mules aboard is this: There is little truck under the car, and it is pulled out, becoming an adjunct to the regular passenger depart ment. The moment the truck Is slid out the intelligent animals make a start for it and step up and on. ltis extreme ly amusing-the way they do it and the way they enjoy this ride, and they are great favorites with the people.

READ THIS LETTER..
PHGSIX, Ariz., Dec. l6, 1899.


 To my mtny friends ani acqu ,intances througho It Arizona it will, no doubt, be a sur prise snia pleasure tI learn that have just completed course of treatment for the liqu or habit at the Pnpnix Ensor Institute, with the most satisfactory results. l am thoroughly convin ed of it's efficacy, and feel that it will be permanent. have been an inveterate drinker for many years, to the detriment of my health and success in business until finally lost all will power and became per feet slave to the habit.
 To say fe,l gratifei for my almost mirlcu- lous rec very would but poorly express my ob- ligatiOn 10 the mana gement of the Institute, and my cherished wish is to influence others to follow my example. My experience has demonstrated that drunkenness can only lead 70 poverty and ultimate ruin, and fortunate is the man addicted to the habit who escapes the fate of the criminal. There are those who are incredulOus concerning the merits Of the Ensor cure, even in the a'e of its wo Ideriul success; and to such can say, yOur do Ibgs would van ish if you would visit the Institute and inves. tigate for yourselves During the past three weeks have been al most hourly com nuni- cation with q numberof morphine, liquor and opium patients, and aft A few days treatment I have seen refreshing, natural sleep succeed the dr ,nSen stu DOT, the light of inte lgenCe suppant the vacant, unmeaLirg are, and the bloom of health replace the wan and haggard cheek.
 The patients, without exception, express themselves in terms of unmeisured de iIht at the good results already obtained and are san guine of those to follow.
 There seems 10 be Il bond of unity and sym pathy, as 1t were, between them-,aC striving to render some aid to the other-and the hours for treatment are looked forward to with kind of [ ,miiy reunion feeling. This is in no small iegree fOStsred by the doctor Tn charge a gentleman no less distinguished for his fine social qualities and sympathetic nature than for his professional ali tty, and l might here mention that his whole leambi.ion is engrossed with the desire to do good Co others and build up an institution in Phoenix that will be a boon 10 her citizens and lasting monument | to his memory. He is a graduate of one of the l finest medical colleges in the COu ntry, and his extensive and successful practice of surgery and medicine in Idaho where he resides, have won for him an enviable reputation. For per sOnal kindness, apart from professional serv ice, acknowledge a debt of gratitude to the officers representing the EnsOr cure, which l regret my ability to adequately express F. B. PARKER
 After reading this letter, can you dOuOt that there is an institution in this city which will be public benefactiOn?

NORTHERN AMBITIONS.

T. c. Norris Partner Wants to be
 United States District Attorney.
 From the Prescott Courier it is learned that Phoenix Aspirants will meet with opposition in the north:
 E. E. Ellinwood, the well-known Democratic attorney of Flagstaff, of the nrm Of Norris X Ellinwood, is a can didate for appointment to the position Of United States district attorney of this territory under the incoming adminis- tration.
 As Northern Arizona has never been favored with this appointment, and as MT. Ellinwood appears to be the only sspirant from this section, the Courier hopes his very deserving claims for recognition will receive the considers- ton due the application of every true and competent Democrat.

The Grm.S vizIer's Little joke

The shah of Persia, probably for Iit- tie diversion, sOLlC time since ordered his grand vizier 10 make list of all thu blockheads that held public office in Persia. The vizier did as commanded and headed the list, which was d long one, with the name of the shah. That worthy poten;2te was Tn an excellent humor and did not become angry at thu vizier's audacity, but asked why his highest minister considered him block head.
 Your majesty" replied the vizier, .I have put you on the list because twp days ago you intrusted a large sum of money to some doubtful individuals to buy horses in other countries. The horss dealers will never return"
 But what if they do return?" asked the shah.
 Then shall take my list, erase thB name of your majesty and substitute for it the names of the stupid hol se ue,iei 5. ? Detroit Free Press. l

No, s Fair Sample of the se..

A man who has returned from a trir sbroad says that women, as a rule, dc not know how to treat servants. On shipbOard, as every ocean traveller is aware, it is established that fees are the rule. Every one knows it. Every guidebOok ever written to tell one "how to go to Europe" advises it's reader of this fact, and how to meet it. Some of them even state the regulation tip which 1t is best to give the steward-ten shillings-though twice that amount is more often the rule, and it's worth it. Women, it is said, invariably either overdo this, and spoil the servants by raising their ideas, or underdo it so amaz. ingly as to be absurd suppose it is another form of the old accusation-no middle distance.
 Well, Boston actress crossed on the steamer with the man mentioned above, sailing from East Boston in the early summer. She sat at the captains table, and was SO pretty as to attract the ad- mTing attention of every one on board The fact had its penalties. She was ip lusty health, and her appetite reflected the bracing effects of the sea air on her fine physique. At every meal she called for every dish on the bill of fare. The cook must have felt honored, but it kept the steward jumping. He took more steps for her sweet pleasure than for all the rest of his contingent. He did his duty well. There shone in his eyes the contented hope of a handsome tip, and at the end of the voyage she gave him-a shilling.-Mahogany Tree.
