IN ATTENUATION.

The Journal Miner magnifes a slight lnaccuracy which appeared in THE RE- PUBLICAN's account of a recent tragic event at Prescott, and goes so far as to hint that TIE REPUBLICAN is the habitual victim as to Prescott news, of !nendacloas stage drivers, teamsters and other birds of passage between the north and the south. We will admit that in oGs instance TIE REPUBLICAN was imposed upon by an individual, "ho IS waiting to enter into an unde. sirable inheritance in an exceedingly warm lake along the surface of which may be seen the blue blaze of brim- stone, but generally our information as Go Prescott affairs has been correct. The case to which the Journal Miner a!ludes, was the burning of house of i'll fame and the death by fire of a female inmate and man from Ashfork. TIE REPUBLIcAN's account was religiously correct except in the matter of the name of the sinful and unfortunate individual from Ash fork which had been misunderstood by gentleman who brought word of the tragedy to TIE REPUBLICAN office and who had indeed assisted in subduing the flames.
 The second morning after the fire, however, the Courier charged the JournatMiner with having published grossly incorrect version of the same affair.
 Now fl the Journal-Miner, being on the ground, (ths gods forbid that any, should infer from the foregoing pre-. mise that we mean that Brother Martin was in immoral proximity to the burn. ing building and should have been un- able to get the severest details of the tragedy, should TIE REPUBLICAN be censured for having at a distance of more than hundred miles committed the sole and simple mistake for having substituted the name of Hinkle for that of Hit?

GATES APPOINTMENT.

Hon. Thomas Gates was yesterday formally appointed by Governor Hughes to the superintendency of the terri torial prison. It is complimentary, but justly so to Mir. Gates, to say that this appointment as to it's wisdom and the fitness of the appointee, is entirely in line with all the other appointments made by the governor. The new super intendent has held many positions of trust and responsibility and in all of them has acquitted himself so as to leave a strong impression of his integ- rity and ability.
 The appointment will be learned with general satisfaction. Indeed there was no opposition except that which was possibly furnished by friends of other applicants. Gates occupancy of the office may be considered strong guarantee of the good and economical management of the prison.

BOGUS HYPNOTISM.
Astounding Confessions of Frau,
 by Professional Subjects.
some of the "Fakes" of Humbug Mes msrists in Europe-How Man Was Apparently Hypnotised
 by Telephone.

Hypnotism has been having a hard time lately in London, Paris and Flu rope generally, but especially in Eng land. Confessions of professional sub- jects have become common. There is, indeed, a very strong disposition to reject hypnotism entirely and consign it to the limbo of exploded fakes.
 The London Times had a series of letters some time ago from an eyewit- ness and alleged investigator of the re- markable doings of Prof. Charcot and other less noted doctors in Paris, de- scribing in detail the "desensitiza- ton" of subjects the mind transfer ence," and all the wondrous things made familiar to us of late years, and actting up seemingly strong case in favor of all that has been claimed for hyPnot:5m.
 This induced Mir. Labouchere of Truth to tell of an interview he had with one of the hypnotic subjects most before the public a short time ago. This subject gave undoubted evidence that he humbuEged the doctors throughout. and that by practice he and other well-.E0Own subjects, whom he named had cultivated the ability to eat candles and soap. and to drink castor oil and pepper sauce when 'un- der the iu'uCuCe,' smacEing their lips as if eating cake and drinking wine, as 'sur~c .teI' to tlem He permit ted needles to be thrust through his gGr5 and checks, a.1 thoroughly satis- Gel Mir. L&L0a.a,.c that ", could sub init to all the wonderful things com mon in hypnotic demonstrations.
 This scemcl to hurt the mesmcrist business, ar&apparcntly the subjects wcr, thrown out of worl:. They have turned Co and dcluCcd the land with co1.rs. ,.r.5. Sou' ara a,:ouUdinG, all are lmv-.nE. Orc ,a2n tell, how he truyc!e3 i,r Q var, alonr with five other subjects, with one of the best known travelling mcsia r. ts in the country. The man was really able to mesmcriza people and perform aome of the actual wonders of the remarkable agency; but he did a vast amount of "faking." One time he declared to a committee of local doctors in provin- cial town that he could as easily hyp- notizc man over the telephone as face to face.
 The professor went about a mile away, called up his desired subject to the telephone fixed on the stage. and told him to go to sleep. The man promptly complied, and the doctors jabbed pins and needles into his flesh, pinched him, pulled his tongue and policd his eyes. The man was in pos session of all his senses. A dozen times he wanted to yell but held out, know ing that the professor was driving to the hall as fast as horse could bring him. Finally the subject was placed with his feet on one chair and his neck on another, and two fat doctors sat on hIs chCst. His backbone was just giving out when the professor rushed breathlessly into the hall and released him. This subject soon after ward resigned.

Valuable Blankets.

The materials composing the strong and beautiful blankets woven by the Navajo Indians are now colored with aniline dyes as the Turks now color their rugs. It costs years of patient work to weave one of these blankets on their rude looms, and they command high prices among the red men as well as among the white ones. A white man will have to pay one hundred dol lars for good specimen, but an Indian must pay for one two or three ponies, which comes to the same thing.

Manufactured Products Amount to Much
 More In Value Than the Crops.
 Agriculture is supposed to be the foundation of our progress and pros- perity, writes R. II. Edmonds in an ar ticle in the Engineering Magazine on modern progress. This is to a large extent true, and yet while the value of our manufactured products in 1890 was SS,G10, ,000, 900 the total value of our agri- cultural products in that year was only about S3,S00, 100000 The opening up of new land by the heavy immigration into the west brought into cultivation ten or more years ago a larger area than the consuming power of this coun- try and the foreign demand added jus tified.
 In pamphlet recently published by c. Wood Davis it is shown that the area cultivated in staple food crops increased from 1875 to 1880 on an average of 6.8 per cent. year, and since then has steadily declined, having been 3.9 per cent. from 1880 to 1885, and then IA per cent, from 1885 to 1890. In other words the total cultivated area is now in- creasing much less rapidly than our population.
 Of course in view of this the agricul- tural productions of the country do not show any such phenomenal advance as has marked the growth of industrial interests. The total value of all ag-

The race of the locomotive with the

landed the wager, is only one specimen
of what man had to accomplish be-
fore the tea kettle should develop into

But when it came TO the steam, there
was the rub. The engine was built be-

People laughed till they cried at the
idea of grasshopper pulling a stage

stopped laughing till it was hooked to
