The Snail.

He has no ground rent to pay, for he does not build his house upon any, and asks no better foundations for what he lives in than his own back. Being his own landlord, he is not liable for house rent, and when he is not inside them his apartments arc unfurnished ones.
 Where'er be dwells he dwells alone.
 Except himself has chAttels none.
 We'll satisfied to be his own
 Whole treasure.
 He is the despair of his creditors, for he has nothing to levy upon, and it the brokers seize his house they seize him, too, and he Is none the worse, for he was at home as he was. Income tax collectors gnash their teeth over him, for if they assess him on his house property he walks out of it. It is his freehold only so long as he remains within.
 Once outside it is nothing, a mere shell, and no heading in any schedule meets the case. This Is why. no doubt, he sometimes leaves his lodg- ings and goes into others to baffle the commissioners and leave the law yers to tax each others costs at their own expense. Nor does he run up any bills
 He is his own hosier, natter, tailor and shoemaker. and as for his food he takes it where he finds 1t. If the caterpillar tells him be has no right to eat the cabbage, the snail replies with a tn quoque, and if the eargig protests against his coming into the lettuce he asks it to show it's title to possession. Good Words.

stmnI.R Remedy,

l saw crowd collected around a carriage in front of a doctors office. Pushing my way into the crowd, saw n very pale young man in the carriage suffering from nose bleed holding out the forehngers of each hand to a gentleman, evidently the physician, who was engaged in tying them together with a string placed around the last joint of each finger. l asked him If that would cure the nose bleed, and he answered cGrtly. ''Yesp waited a few minutes aud saw the cure effected. 4 few days later l tried the remedy on my office boy, who had a severe case of nose bleed, and it cured him almost i'm mediately. asked a regular physi- clan about it, and he replied gruflly. "Hypnotism."
 This l did not quite understand, but it st me thinking. One evening afterward a co ple of young ladies, the daughters of my next door nei .,h- Dor, who hhd been attending a church entertainment. returned home in a state of laughing hysteria-the gig gler' in Mrs. Jsrley's waxworks had been too much for them. Twas called in as a friend to see what could be done for them. IL was no laughing matter, for they were having spells of fainting. l tied up their finger joints with strings, telling them that 1t would cure them, and it did Philadelphia Record.

The Examiner alleges that the same members of congress who were so anxious for the admission of re- publican Idaho and Wyoming are now flibustering against the ad- mission of democratic Arizona. Wonder if it has occurred to the Examiner that the same members who opposed the admission of these and four other republican states are the same ones who are now most jealous for the admission of three democratic territories. When it comes to this question neither party has much advantage over the other in the matter of patriotism, as states have been admitted, not so much as a matter of justice, but on account of political necessities.
Arizona weekly journal-miner., 1893-12-20

The question of statehood for
 Arizona is practically settled. Ac-
 cording to a press report published
 m yesterdays JOURNAL-MNER the
 bill for the admission of Arizona has
 passed the lower house, and there
 IS no doubt whatever that it will
 pass the senate,as it has been agreed
 upon in caucus. The programme
 for the admission of territories was outlined some time since in this paper. 1t was to the effect that dem ocrats in both houses of congress had become alarmed at the result of the recent election, and had held caucus, and having assurances that Arizona, New Mexico and Utah were certain of electing democratic sena- tors, they decided upon their ad- mission for the purpose of strength enlng their party in the senate. Prospects of political advantage has greater weight in regard to the ad mission of new states than all the argument that is brought to bear upon the subject. It was this con sideration that kept the Dakotas and Washington out of the list of states, so long as the democratic party was dominant in the lower house of congress. It may be that the republican party when in con trOl of both branches of congress was actuated from motives political l in their admission, although what l ever motives prompted them, theIr 1 admission was simple act of jus tice and right. In fact there has not been a state admitted for years in which political advantage to the dominant party in congress has not had more or less weight and consid- eration. There is little doubt now but Arizona, New Mexico and Utah will be admitted during the present session af congress.

The Fart. ,h. n,h.r N..-

It has lately been stated that some
 years ago Prince Bismarck was anx- ious to induce the Duke of Edinburgh 10 surrender his right to the (Saxe- Coburg) succession in consideration of a pecuniaTy indemnity. This happens to be just the reverse of the truth. If Prince Bismarck had really entertained such wish, the Duke of Edinburgh would practically have mad no alternative but to acquiesce. As matter of fact, however. it was Duke Alfred who desired to sell the reversionary interest of himself and his son, and in 1876 the queen went to Baden Baden and had a confer ence with the old Emperor William in the hope of being able to arrange satisfactory terms. After a great deal of haggling the negotiations fell through because the duke stipu- lated for a sum paid down, whereas the German government would give him only a liberal annuity. But there was no anxiety at Berlin to conclude the transaction.-Lon Truth

This morning a team of horses, a wagon and harness was found pl d up in heap against a tele- phone post the other side of the West End hotel on Washington street and taken to Stevens & AL bright's stables. It is said the team was running away and struck the post about eleven o'clock last night and remained there until after day light this morning.-Phenix Herald.

MORE ABOUT STATEHOOD

This office is in receipt of a con- munication from ex-Governor \. O. Murphy in defense of the recent statehood convention, in which the financial condition of the territory IS explained as follows:
 You say that the fact that the territory recently sold Sl,5OO.OOO of bonds ought to be convincing prooI that the territorial bonded debt ex- ceeds SS000O0 Technically vou ara right, but your unexplained state ment creates a false impression. When the territorial bonds were sold the territorial bonded debt amounted to S5Sl GOO, floating debt evidenced by ten per cent bearing warrants S529,00O, and interest making the territorial debt bonded floating and interest, SS6O. .92q S5 The bonds sold did not increase the debt, as might be inferred from reading your article, but decreased It, because of the reduced interest. and the territorial bonded daht
 
 proper was not in fact increased. al though 1t 80 appears because of .he funding bonds sold being techni- cally territorial bonds. The terri tory virtually became the endorser or the obligations of counties. mu- inequalities and school districts, but lien rests upon the taxable prop- erty of the localities endorsed for the full amount of their funded debt, therefore justly speaking the territorial bonded debt proper has not been increased"
 The JoURNAL-MINER never intended to convey the idea that the debt of the territory had been increased by the recent issue of bonds. It said nothing about increase or decrease, of the debt of the terri tory, but referred to it as it exists While the territorial debt proper is a little over SS00,OOO, the same peo- pie and the same property will be required to pay the county and mu- nicipal debts for which the terri tory stands sponsor.
 Ex-Governor Murphy takes the JoURNAL-MNER to task for question ing or criticising methods in this matter. It may be a mistake to do SO, but We have always found that the best method to promote any good cause was through candor and lair statement, and particularly. any question of public interest where 'thcial facts and figures are so easily obtained, as in this, and the only point attempted to be made was hat exaggerated statements are l likely to harm rather than help the 1 'ause of statehood.

Eat Mhat You Like.

It Is a sound rule for all of us
 says an eminent doctor, that with
 respect to food our likes and dis likes are the best guide as to what Is good for Us, and it is safe to eat upon the plan that whatever we relish will prove on the average harmless and wholesome, and what ever produces disgust will prove, as a general thing, indigestible. Moth ing can be more wrong. for instance, than to make children eat fat, for example, when they don't want it. A healthy child likes fat and eats as much of it as he can. If he shows signs of disgust at fat, that proves him to be of bilious tenn perament and he ought never to be forced to eat it against his will. A good many of us have disordered digestion in after life simply because we were compelled to eat rich food in childhood which we felt instinc- lively was unsuitable to us.-Ex.

Southern War Claims.

WASmNGToN, Dec. S.-Ex-Cong- ressmaa Hemphill. of South Caro- lima, appeared before the House committee on the judiciary this morning and made an argument in favor of the extension of the act providing for the settlement of the captured and abandoned property war claims. The bill affects thou sands of persons throughout the South who suffered from spoliation during the civil war. It is proposed to extend the benefits of the present law to those persons whose claims have been adversely determined by courts upon the ground of disloyai- ty without taking into consideration the affect Of the Presidents proc lamation of pardon and amnesty. There Is a fund of about Sl1,OOO,OOO now in the treasury which would be by the extension of the act. Immediately after Mir. Hemphill's the committee decided to report the bill favorsbly to the House.

When Arizona is admitted there will be some political problems to solve which are not susceptible of solution by any known rnle of arithmetic. One of them will be to divide two positions as United States senator between four or more democratic candidates, to the satis- faction of them all. The four prom inent ones are Herndon, Smith, Zu- lick and Barnes, to say nothing of the possibility of others, while the will no doubt be on deck with full complement of can 1idatas

The Human Heart

The human heart is a hollow mus cle of a conical form, placed between the two lungs and inclosed in the pericardium or heart sac. The ordi- nary size of the heart in the adult is about inches in length, 34 inches in breadth at the broadest part and 2J inches in thickness. Its weight is from 10 to 12 ounces in men, and from $ to 10 ounces in women.-Leis- ure Moments.

RussIa and China.

It may be laid down as a safe gen. eral rule that any and every agree. ment made between China and Rus sia must be detrimental to the inter. ests of China, for the simple reason that Russia always knows precisely what she is driving at, while China has never yet apprehended the true purport of any convention she has made with foreign power, and usu- ally discovers too late that her conf dence in the magic power of phrases has been misplaced.
 This is especially true of the trea- ties and protocols she has made with Russia during the past generation. They have been so many steps in the Russian advance, and such they are likely tocontinue- -Blackwood's s Mag aZine.

Until the last issue of our sprigbt

Until the last issue of our spright- ly neighbor the Kingman Mineral Wealth, was received, We had sup posed that the republican party was victorous at the recent election. The Wealth, which has but recently esPoused the populist cause, gravely informs its readers that the victory was won by the new party. It does not take a big showing to satisfy some folks, and after all people so constituted are the happiest, and our Kingman neighbor seems in the very happiest mood.

 FIJI FOR SMALL FAVORs.
 The new tariff bill is not as radical as English free traders desired and expected of the democratic party still it IS gratifying to them that they can hope for some benefits from it. The Nottingham Daily Guardian says of it:
 The tariff bill which has been drawn up by the Democratic party in the United States k disappoint- ing to local traders, because. so far as we can at present see. Noting ham industries will not benefit from It to the same extent as the indus tries carried on m other parts of the country. But, indirectly, We may hope to gain some advantage. and, therefore, We must be thankful for small mercies.

reason why the Derry folks would not

that they were afraid of being pulled
