instances, only 8 few feet apart. The closets are seldom, or never cleaned, aud only occasionally IS any attempt made to disinfect them, and when this effort is made it Is more often an effort to deodeFize than tO dis infect. These closets are the reeep- tacle for every conceivable unclean thing.
 Now, sir, assuming that this is fair representation-and 1t can b. easily demonstrated wIli ask you, sir. what you drink The we'll is deeper than the closet, and 1t Is a we'll established fact that a well twenty feet deep will be contam- mated by a closet one hundred feet distant m an alluvial or gravelly soii such IS we have here. This system of we'll and closet building is not partial to Prescott, but prevails in all towns that have no sewer system, aud in some that do. 1t IS not necessary for me to tell our citizens in detail, the result of the present system. If continued any one with ordinary intelligence must realize that We are laying the foundation for a hot bed of disease for future generations. As demonstration of this look at our older towns and cities, and see the number of people coming west in search of health. Only a few of them know how or where they got their i'll health. I would suggest that fl they womld investigate ''The Old Moss Covered Bucket That Hung in the We'll it might throw some light on the sub ject. 1t may be argued that water penetrating or Altering through gravel or sand, for few feet, will purify itself. This is a snare and a delusion. and-he who allows himself to be deceived thereby is net wise. How often do we trace typhoid, diphtheria, scarletina, etc, directly to the drinking water. Drinking water is not the only source of contamination, but is one; and if 1 succeed in convincing your readers of method of riding the danger from that source to a mini nun, will feel satisfied with myself and shey with me.

Artsmu. Ward and the Baker.

A member of the London Savage club relates an anecdote of Artemus Ward and Howard Paul, both of whom suffered from dyspepsia.
 They were traversing Oxford street when they saw sign over bakers shop, Pure, Nourishing Hygienic Bread.
 They entered with view of order ing some of it to be sent to their re- spective residences, and the man be- hind the counter chanced to be a lank, lean specimen of humanity, with face as long as a fiddle, hol- low cheeks and an odd squeak in his voice.
 Paul did not like the looks of the man and nudged Artemus, who said to the attendant:
 ''ls your bread very healthyln
 Nothing finer in the world, re- piled the man.
 ''Is it nourishing, fatteningl" pur- sued Artemus.
 Quite so, responded the baker.
 And may l tenderly inquire do you eat it yourselff" and Artemus ran his eye quickly up and down the beanpole figure of the person ad- dressed
 All the time, was the response.
 Well, in that case, said Artemus, with a twinkle in his eye, T don't think we want any. Wen call again when the bread has taken effect on you. Good day, sir, ' and the twain departed.

heard an amusing story from a New York journalist the other day. In his youth he had been combined editor and staff of a paper that pro vlded news for one of the widest and most lawless settlements in the Rock les. Mir. - was sitting in his of flee, and wild looking person was shown in, who said: Sir. I have called to see you with regard to a disturbance that took place at one of the bars last night. Ihad a row with a man, he riled me, and I got excited and shot him, and 1 regret to say that in the excitement of the moment l scalped him. So I've called on you. sir, to request that you will see that no exaggerated report of this finds it's way into your newspaper. "-London Gentlewoman.

Whoever has seen the Washington monument in Baltimore. with the crouching bronze lion of Barye near it's base, will appreciate the story they tell about the rustic huntsman on bis first visit to town. He was shown all the objects of interest in Baltimore one by one, but gave each only a passing glance and not even so much as word of comment. When he came in sight of the Washington monument, however, a new light shot from his eye At last it was ob- vious that something had been found to interest him. He scanned the shaft for some minutes, running his eye from the base to the point on which the statue stood and back again, then fastened his gaze on the crouching lion as If fascinated. Bis lips parted and his city friends drew near to hear his criticisms of the sculptor's art. At last out came the words, "B' gad. he's got the old man treed, ain't hef" kate Fields Washington.

He Catches on to a Juicy Plum at Lass.
 A dispatch from Washington of April 2, says that William C. Eos ter, of Prescott, Arizona, mas been nominated by Cleveland as Consul at Trinidad, West Indies. This an- nouncement coming so close as it does on the heels of the land office fight being at an end in Prescott, carries the impression that William never did really want to become receiver of public moneys here. and only made the fight to shield his as- pirations for something better and of a more nobler calling.
 The appointment of Mir. Foster is one in which We heartily agree with the big man at Washington for his judgment, for it makes us feel some what inflated to think that a dry country like Prescott should re- ceive the recognition of having one of its Hassayampers selected to represent 1t at such famous sea port as Trinidad. Mir. Foster is to be congratulated along with Ari- zona thrown in, for outside of the rich float he will pick up in his new fields, along with the glittering social Armament he will surely figure in, Arizona will come in for her share of his prominence as being the land he is accredited to. If httle more Cleveland lightning of the same force will strike us, we'll throw up our hat for Grover.

OUR SAVIOR.
An Interesting and New Translation
 From AncIent Records.


 A Buddhist life of Christ, of i'm
 mense interest to the religious
 world, has been discovered in a
 monastery in Thibet, by Nicholas Notovitch, a Russian traveller, who
 tried vainly to negotiate for it's pur- chase. He happened to break leg and was taken to the monastery, and while there a Llama read to him the precious record, which was in the Pali language, and Notovitch wrote down a full translation. Christ is known to the Buddhists as the Prophet Issa. This is brief summary of his life: Issa was born of Jewish parents. He was poor, but belonged by birth to family of exalted piety which had forgotten its former greatness on earth. They magniiied the glory of the Creator, and thanked him for the misfortune, with which he was pleased to try them. From his childhood he preached one God. On coming to the age of l3, instead of marrying, he fled from his fathers house and went with merchants to Sindh.
 At IA he Was living among ArYans.
 One day he broke away from the Brahmins. He denied the divine origin of the Vedas and the in- carnation of Para Brahma. He learned the Pali tongue, and was initiated into the histories of pure Buddhism. Then he went west ward, preaching against idols. He was g years old when he returned from Judea, where he began to preach. His popularity alarmed Pontius Pilate, who summoned the priests and learned men to try Issa. The tribunal examined Issa and pronounced him innocent. Issa continued to speak to the people, including obedience Caesar and re- spect for womankind
 Spies whom Pilate set to watch him sent disquieting reports of the enthusiasm of the multitude and, the governor, fearing mutiny, caused Issa to be imprisoned, tor tured and tried before the Sanhe- drim with two thieves. False wit nesses were. bribed. The Governor called certain witness, who as. the bidding of Pilate, had betrayed l
