Natures Surest Ally.

If nature did not struggle against dis ease, even in weakly constitutions, swift indeed would be the course of malady to its fatal termination. While nature thus struggles let us, lest worse befall us, aid her efforts with judicious medic inal help. Experience must be our guide in battles with diseases, and that lamp to our feet' indicates Hostetter's Stom- ach Bitters as a safe, tried and thorough ally of nature. If the blood be infected with bile, if the bowels and stomach are inactive, if the kidneys fail to eXpel inn purities of which they are the natural outlet, a coarse of the BItters IS the surest reliance of the sufferer, one, moreover, that is sanctioned by profes- sional indorsement and use for nearly half century. No American or foreign remedy has earned greater distinction as a remedy for and preventive of chron- ic liver complaint, malaria, constipa- tion, kidney and rheumatic trouble and debility.

We understand some parties are pros pecting the coal fields east of St. Johns. They have had several men at work sinking and taking oat ceal-some of the veins, it is said, is good coking coal. It is further reported that the parties who are doing the prospecting are also inter- ested in the Silver City and Northern railway project, and if they find sufi- cient coal will build their road to it and tap he Atlantic and Pacific at or near Holbrook. From the coal fields to the last named point. there would be very little grading to do. Ties and rails could be laid, cars run and the road-bed made afterward, Those who have examined the coal fields spoken of, say there is no doubt as to quantity, and very little as to quality. From this it is not beyond the possibilities to have the iron horse come snorting and cavorting into St. Johns in the near future.

Recent advices from Winslow gives the following account of killing at that place on the night of the 24th instant. J. H. Breed, one of the leading mer- chants of Winslow, was awakened dur ing the night by some one trying to force open the door of his house. Mir. Breed thinking it was burglars, got his gun and ordered the person away, the command not being obeyed, Breed shot through the door and killed the man. Upon in- vestigation the next morning it was found that the dead man was machin- ist who had been at work in Winslow for two days, that he was drunk and while in that condition had wandered into Mr.
 Breed's yard and attempted to force an entrance into the house. The coroner's jury rendered verdict of iustifable homicide. Mr. Breed was not arrested

There is a rumor on the streets to the effect that the legislature has passed a law requiring two-third vote to move any county seat, where a certain sum of money had been expended tor public buildings. Can't youch for the correct ness of the report, but think it a good law if such is the case. There are not over two-thirds of the voters in any county in the Territory who are tax pay CTS, if that many. Those who have to foot the bills are the ones who should have the say on such questions. Such a law would afford no more protection to bona fide residents and tax payers than they are entitled to.

Postal route 6S, ,lS6 from this place to Snowflake via Concho, fifty-two and one half miles, three times a week, will commence on Saturday. The route from here to Concho will be discontinued When bids were asked for for this route THE HERALD hoped that decent line of buckboards would be put on and that the service would be conducted in such a manner as to be credit to the two places-Snowfiake and St Johns. The price at which the contract was taken, showever, will scarcely justify a burro line, and we are afraid the route will be a disgrace rather than q credit to the county. Why men will persist in cut ting each others throats, when it comes to bidding on government contracts is beyond our ken. There is no honor in such contract, that we can see, and if there is no honor attached, there should be some money in 1t.

Newspaper Subscription Laws.

Few readers of newspapers fully and clearly understand the laws governing subscriptions The decisions of the United States Court on this subject are
 1. Subscribers who do not give ex- press notice to the contrary are consid- cred as wishing 10 renew thelr subscrip- tions.
 ? If subscribers order the discontin- uance of theIr periodicals, the publisher may continue to send them until all ar rearages are paid.
 8. If subscribers neglect or refuse 10 take their periodicals from the post of flee to which they are directed, they are responsible until they have settled their bills and ordered them discontinued.
 i. If subscribers move to other places without informing the publisher, and the papers are sent to the former ad- dress, they are held responsible.
 5. The courts have decided tha re- fusing to take periodicals from the of- fee. or removing and leaving them un- called for, is prima facie evidence of in- tentional fraud.
 6 Ii subscribers pay in advance, they are bound to give notice at the end of the time if they do not wish to continue taking it; otherwise the publisher is au- thorized 10 send it, and the subscriber will be responsible until an express no- tice, with payment of all arrearages, is sent to tSe publisher.
 The latest postal laws are such that newspaper publishers can arrest anyone for fraud Who takes 8 paper and refuses

Beds In the Russian Empire,

Not until recently have the inhabitants
of Russia known the use of beds, except
ing in the case of the luxurious patri-
clans who were able to purchase them.
The peasants slept on the large bake
ovens to be found in nearly every house,
while the soldiers were provided with
sort of cot without bedding. The mid
die classes and the students, on the other
hand, contented themselves with wrap
ping a blanket about them and lying
down near rather primitive looking
stoves.
Not SO long ago beds were introduced
into the boarding schools which abound
in that empire, and now the use of beds
has become rather general As is usual
in this absolute monarchy, the introduce
ton of these articles of comfort had to
be brought about by special edict from
the car of all the Russias, and as mat
ter of course the servile schoolboys and
others who have been allowed to use
them by royal behest naturally look
upon his highness as great benefactor.
They might well do SO, for never before
have the babies even known the exist
ence Of cradles, cribs or cots.-House
