AS TO ARID LANDS.
Different Schemes Set Forth Looking to
Their Wholesale Reclamation.


WAsn1NGroN, Dec. 4.-There are va
rious schemes to utilize the Aridland
law that was passed at the last session Of
congress. It gives the new states and
territories 100000 acres each Of govern
nlent lands if they will redeem them.
Among the schemes proposed is one for
the states to build irrigation bitches with
labor brought from the overcroWed towns
and cities of the East and to pay for that
labor half in cash and half in land to be
occupied when the irrigation works are
completed It will, however, be difficult
to induce any great number of city peo-
pie to go West under such conditions.
1t is proposed to establish model irri-
CATION colony somewhere in the West for
the purpose Of demonstrating what can
be done by a single man in the way OF
agriculture, if his labors are properly
| directed Five Thousand acres of land
will be taken in some locality convenient
to water and transportation facilities, and
100 farmers placed on it with farms of
from twenty to forty acres each. They
will be organized on the village system,
as adopted by the Mormons. in order to
avoid the objections that people in thick
| ly settled portions OF the country invarla-
bly, raise when they are recommended to
go West.
The farmers will live in a village with
schools and churches just as convenient
as they have them in Ohio or Massachu-
setts, and have their barns or storehouses
on their farms, which will not be more
than three miles away at the farthest
Their wives and children will have plenty
of society and there will be a store estab-
lished by the association at which they
can secure at reasonable prices every
thing they need. This is the plan sug-
gested by Brigham Young and it has
proved to be very effective in keeping
the Mormons contented and happy and
in promoting education and adherence to
the doctrines of the church.
A. L. Kirk kpatrick, Of Fillmore, Cal, had
the misfortune to have his leg caught be-
tween a cart and stone and badly bruis-
ed. Ordinarily he would have been laip
up for two or three weeks but says: "Aften
using one bottle of Chamberlain's Pair
Balm began to feel better, and in three
days was entirely we'll. The peculiar
soothing qualities which Chamberlain's
Pain Balm possesses l have never noticed
in any other liniment. I take pleasure
in recommending it." This liniment is
also of great value for rheumatism and

WASHINGTON, Dec.11. 1.-Senator Teller of
Colorado, the acknowledged leader of the
Rocky Mountain branch Of the feee silver
men, acknowledges that free coinage
bill ola somewhat radical character will
be introduced and pressed at the earliest
possible moment. He intimated that the
silver men had about decided to precipi-
tate general financial discussion and to
do this, If possible, even before the holi-
days. 1t is understoors that the free silver
partisans consider this an especially
auspicious moment. The tariff question
is supposed to be shelved for the whole
session and under the guise of dis
cussion of the presidents financial policy,
which they realize is distinctly against
the free coinage of silver on the 16 to 1
basis, they hope to unite their forces and
push their measure through the house
and possibly through the senate. They
have no hope Of anything buta veto from
Mr.. Cleveland, but are anxious to put
him on record as we'll as to create a nu-
cleus of an active silver sentiment in
congress.

of Bolan, Worth Co.. Iowa, who had
been troubled with rheumatism in his
back, arms and shoulders read an item
in his paper about how prominent
German citizen of Fort Madison had
been cured. He procured the same
medicine, and to use his own words: cit
cured me'right up" He also says a
neighbor and his wife were both sick in
bed with rheumatism. Their boy was
over to my house and said they were SO
bad he had to do the cooking. I told

NOT AS GOOD AS HER MA.
The opinion of an Austrian Princess q
Circus Riders Feat.

The Opinion of an Austrian Princess on
Circus Riders Feat
Nearly everybody knows that the &C.
centric empress of Austria carries her
fondness for hunting to such a pitch
that up to recent years she used to
brave the terrible fits of NAL de mer
that are caused by the Irish channel
for the sake of enjoying the superb
hunting that can still be found In the
Emerald isle-one free joy not yet
hunted out of it by the ubiquitous and
iniquitous Sassenaeh. But it is not
generally known, says the New York
Journal. that the first lady of the land
in Austria is also q fancy rider, used to
have a private arena, and when in
playful mood would give exhibitions
of startling equestrian skill to select
circle of more or less discreet friends.
One day when her little daughter
Stephanie was on visit at the home
of q noble in another part of the en-
pire it occurred to her hosts that per-
haps circus that was performing in
the neighborhood would afford the in
fant princess a novel delight. They
took the child, and were astonished at
the profound gravity with which her
little eyes watched the performers
leaping through hoops of colored
paper, turning somersaults or riding
two horses at once.
.'Wen.'' said one at last, ''what does
our little princess think of it?'
Not much, :" replied the child, shak-
ing her head sagely. My ma can do
those things heap better" Then,
with an air of profound conviction:
my mas a born circus rider"
Imagine. if you can, Austria's eti-
quette, and then imagine the thrill of
amazement and horror which the
child's remark produced.

connected with the fact that its officials

had bought dress pattern of loden, a
sort of woolen goods made only in the
Tyrol. and packed it in the top of her
trunk for the inspection of the Italian

were unlocked and closed again until
nothing was left but an unpretending

He wrenched the loden out of the
trunk and started toward the inner Of

greeted by another official in these
words, spoken with excitement and
much gesticulation:
'.How is this? Just now at the last
moment and the train ready to go.
How is this?''
One man was weighing the goods, an
other poising a pen in his hand, and half
