A LifeliIxe Stone Camel.

One Of the most curious rock forma-
tons in the world is to be seen in Ari-
IONA. It is short distance east of the
stage road between Tucson and Oracle
and stands on knoll several feet above
the surrounding sand hills When first
seen, tic effect is startling, and the mind
has to set eyer q shock before the pecu-
lisr object can be comprehended. It is
most perfect representation of a camel
and is formed Of one piece of granite.
This curiosity is of colossal size, but
perfectly propc:tioncd. It is about 60
feet high and is very white and smooth.
There arc very few assures on the sur
face, and they strangely are in the
proper places TO form features. The
only real projection from the surface is
exactly placed for an eyebrow. The two
humps are plainly to be seen, and tho
neck is curved beautifully.
The rock is really solid piece rising
from the ground, but the effect Of legs
is produced by clumpof dark colored
brush that grows beside the stone. The
white stone shows plainly at both sides
of the brush, and the effect of the legs
is Enthusiastically produced Philadel-

A Versatile Literary Wo1na,,

Probably one of the most versatile lit
erary women in the country today is
Miss Alice e. Ives. Her newspaper wor:
is pheaonenally volurninous, and sEo
writes any number of funny sketches,
humorous and sentimental verses and
short novelties for the weeklies and
magazines.
Miss Ives best humor, though, is ex-
hibited in her plays, or perhaps it is be-
cause it is brought into sharp and abrupt
contrast here with her magnificent pa
thetic and tragic work. She has written
two or three meritorious comedies. The
range of Miss Ives work may be under
stood when I mention that she is the
principal art critic on two Sunday pa
pers and & volr:2irous contributor to

To q Would Be Medical Student.

A correspondent who signs himself
duffy" asks, evil you please inform
me if there is q medical school in New
York in which the lectures for the first
year are given in the evening or any time
after 3 p. n2:''
Duffy, you and dozens of other
would be doctors" think you can study
medicine in the happy go lucky way the
law pills study law-lectures in the aft
ernoon; Office work in the morning.
You must give up that idea at once.
Medicine requires rs hours out of "a, and
more on Sundays and holidays. The lec-
lures in every medical school are given
when the professors and lecturers can
find time for them. 'A:ey're given in the
morning and in the afternoon and the
evening, and some Of the private
''quizzes' begin at 1890 or II p. m. and
stop in time to get ready for breakfast if
you dress quickly. Now. Duffy, if you
ask because you think medicine is q
snap like these afternoon law schools,
you'd better keep out of it, but if you
can stand the pace and ask simply be-
cause you're ignorant, why, go ahead,
and with good health and hard work you
may get your license to "kill, kill, kill,
Kill, kill!''-New York Sun.

The Trouble In Keeping Persian Cat,

AAe ArouO1o LII AeeplnS PERSIAN Cat.
The love of liberty is the ruling pas
sion Of the Persian cat, as it is Of the
Angora. Every one of the long haired,
indeed, delights in long solitary tramps.
1t seems impossible to cure them of the
desire, and what cat really desires he
generally succeeds in getting sooner or
later. To own one of these most attract
i've and most costly pets in the city,
where thieves abound, is to live life of
constant anxiety and watchfulness. Only
those who have kept guard over a sly and
cunning human lunatic, ever plotting to
escape, can appreciate the vigilance nee
essary for his safety Yet in spite Of
this so ornamental and so beautiful is
tie gentle creature that few who are
able to do so can deny themselves the
pleasure of owning one-Olive Thorne

Travellers Should Alw:,s Tal.o Notes.

First rue for all travellers: Set down

travel without notebook. Make notes
of all you observe, if it is only bank of
primroses. Note the people in the car
riage; what they are like: what they talk
about; how the women are dressed; what
books they are reading; if they look hap
py or not. It is interesting when the
country is dull to watch the faces Of
your fellow travellers and to construct
in general terms their future, their pres

know not Whether it is mere Sad or more
delightful t. open these old notebooks

Meanness In the Chaste Dove.

Cases of meanness are not numerous
among the animals. A surprising one is
the innocent dove, which sometimes
hides under her wings food for which
she has no need simply to deprive her
companions. The sense Of property is
manifested in the competition for prizes,
as in the struggle for the female or for
food, rank, territory or nests. The dog
distinguishes the property of his master
and even discriminates between objects
belonging to different members of the
same family. Current Literature.

Her hands toss back through torrents of her

Judge Mcconnell in overruling de.
murrer by the American Preservers as
sociation. which is endeavoring to coerce
recalcitrant member of the trust, said
"No court of record should lend its
legal operations TO further the interests
and carry out the purposes of trust.
To my mind the corporation known as
the American Fruit Preservers associa.
ton Is but the agent Of the trust, and
as such the same illegality attaches to
It as to the principal concern"
This is much more sweeping ruling
than any that has preceded it, and il
applied rigidly would effectually destroy
trusts under no matter what form they
might guise themselves.
But trusts TO be entirely destroyed
must be made Improbable as well as
illegal. That would put an end "a
them.
There undoubtedly IL such thing as
lawful combination, but we see very
little Of 1t in these days. As a general
rule the promoters" of trust have
no dificulty in juggling one or two
million dollars into tl.eir ow~ pockets
