Getting Help From the Par.on.

Not long ago the pastor of a Pres byterian flock in western New York was making calls in the rural portion of his parish with his wife. They visited one poor family and listened to complaints of how the boys of a goddess household near by had re gently on numerous occasions way laid the boys of this particular house hold He was full of sympathy, and said If 1t happened again something ought to be done about it.
 About a week later a small. bare headed boy rang the bell at the par sonage, and the pastors wife re sponded.
 "Is the minister heref" he inquired.
 He is out, my little man, she said. ''Is it anything I can do for you7"
 He looked at her for a minute and said it wasn't When he was at our house the other day, he sad, ''he told us if them boys made any more trouble he would fix 'em."
 He said he would see what could be done about it, l think. Have they misbehaved7"
 ''I don't know about that, mum, but they was over today and fit us.
 She tod him her husband should know 1t the instant he arrived, and the boy went back to the battlefield to herald the rapid approach of re-en- forcements--New York Times.

Here Is Good Authority For the Belief

 The verdict returned by the fury
 as the result of the inquest on Mir.
 Lombard John Newman Tanner. L.
 R. c. P. and s. Ed, who was found dead in his bedroom at a hotel in
 bleet street opens up once more the question of the justifability of yer diets of suicides during temporary insanity" m the absence of any evi- dence of insanity. Both jurymen and judges are as eager to admit a ! plea of insanity when a man makes away with himself as they are un- willing to do so when he takes the life of another.
 The legal fiction-for in many cases It Is nothing else-is now a mere formula" which has outlived the purpose 1t was meant to serve. A felo de So Is no longer buried at cross roads with a stake through his heart nor does suicide entail any conse- quences on the survivors of a kind rendering any legal subterfuge de sirable in their interests. Is not the supposed charity to the dead man, in assuming that he was insane b,scause he destroyed himself, much moro than counterbalanced by the inius- tlce done to his relatives by branding the family with an undeserved social stigIna9
 Morselh In his great work, ''n Sui- cldio, says that in only about one third of all cases of suicide are the perpetrators of the rash act insane. and Dr. Wynn Westcott states that in only 20 per cent of the cases of suicide which have come before him as coroner had the deceased showed signs of mental unsoundness. In the case of Mir. Tanner the facts showed clearly that the suicide was deliber- ate, and there was not the slightest l evidence of insanity.
 Dr. Tanner, M. P, with whom all l will sympathize in the affliction that has befahen him. stated at the in. quest that his brother took his own | life calmly, conscientiously and ac- cording to his lights, and charity us well as justicema fairly be satisfied with this pronouncement 1t would be going outside our province to dis cuss the ethical aspects of self mur- der. All that we are concerned with here is to urge, as We have done be fore, that for a jury to return a yer dict imputing insanity to a man without any evidence beyond the bare fact of suicide is an unworthy evasion.

Fatal Collision.

A telegram from Bellevue, Michi- gan, of September 2, says: "Henry A. Newland and wife of Detroit, were killed and their daughter and son-in-law, Mir. and Mrs. Howard G Merdith, badly injured in collision on the Grand Trunk road, early this morning. Newland was wholesale fur dealer. His wife is the daugh- ter of James F. Joy, a we'll known railroad official. Meredith is cash fer eff the Grand Trunk, and Detroit, Grand Haven and Milwaukee roads. The party were travelling in Mere dith's private car and were going to the worlds fair. The train to which the car was attached was behind time and was run into by an express train following. William Costles, a porter, was fatally hurt. William Abernathy, the cook, and Jennison, a fireman of the collided train, are badly injured"
 Mir. Newland, one of the victims of the above accident, was a stock holder in the Prescott National Bank of this place and was reported to be immensely wealthy.

The Water In Two Oceans.

If the water in the Atlantic ocear were made to fill a circular pip, reaching from the earth to the sun a distance of 93, ,OO0, 900 miles-the di ameter of the pipe would be ], I,SSI yards, or rather over a mile, while a pipe of similar length to contain the Pacific would be over 1a miles across. Yet the distance to the sun isso great that if a child were born with an arm long enough to reach to the sun it would not live long enough to know that it had touched it, for sen sation passes along our nerves at the rate of 100 feet second, and to trav- el from the sun to the earth at that rate would take II centuries, and such an abnormal infant is an unlike ly ntenariRn.-Longman's Maga- zine.

We have received our fall and winter goods of the best selected line of imported and domestic wool ems ever brought to Arizona. Gen tlemen seeking fine tailoring cau secure excellent satisfaction al mod. crate prices with us. All our work IS made on our promises by first class mechanics. We have had many years experience in cutting and m making up garments for some of the very best firms east and west prior to coming to Prescott two months ago. We have been with Polasky Bros. ana Geo. P. Taylor of Los Angeles, Cal, for the last five years, two of the best known first class ta loring firms on the Pacific Coast. We are here to stay with the intention of building up a good trade on square basis. We regret to see the fine tailoring so greatly mlsrepresented in this locality by eastern and western houses as the work for those firms is made up by inferior mechanics in sweating shops, or filthy Chinese dens.

Eye. See by Their Own Light.

Helmholtz has shown that the fun di of the eyes are themselves lumi nous, and he was able to see, in tota darkness, the movement of his arm by the light of his own eyes. This ii one of the most remarkable experi ments recorded in the history of sci ence, and probably only a few men could satisfactorily repeat it, for it is very likely that the luminosity of the eyes is associated with uncom- mon activity of the brain and great imaginative power.
