Grand Chancellor Beard.

w. S. Beard. of Eureka, Grand
Chancellor OF the Knights OF Pythias, is
making the rounds and visiting the
lodges in his jurisdiction. He met with
Pyramid Lodge No. 10 Of Wadsworth
last Monday evening and gave the
secret work in a thorough and inn
pressive maner. The meeting was very
interesting and Grand Chancellor Beard
romplimented the members of No. 10
for being thoroughly wide awake and
good Pythians. After the adjournment
OF the lodge the brothers stepped over to
the dining room of the Wadsworth
Hotel where they found a banquet board
most generously laden with good things
both wet and dry. The brothers were
all happy and laughter and fun reigned
until alter midnight. Grand Chancellor
Beard is pronounced a thorough
Pythian and a jolly good fellow. He is
doing good work, has made a success
while in Office and has the happy
faculty of making everybody feel at
home with him. The brothers were de-
lighted and we opine that now they
know Brother Beard they will take great
pleasure in meeting him often. The
next time he comes they are likely to
give him the whole village. He is a

"The laugh of a child will make the
hottest day more sacred still. Strike
with hand of fire, o weird musician, the
harp strung with Apollo's golden hair !;
fill the vast cathe iral aisles with
symphonies sweet and dim, deft TOUGHER
OF the organ keys; blow, bugler, blow,
until thy silver notes do touch and kiss
the moonlit waves and charm the lovers
wandering mid the vineclad hills. But
know your sweetest strains are discords
all compared with cbildhood's happy
laugh-the laugh that fills the eyes with
light and every heart with joy. O rip
ping river of laughter, thou art the
blessed boundary line between beasts
and men; and every hayward wave of
thine doth drown some fretful fiend of
care. o laughter, rose-lipped daughter
of joy, there are dimples enough in thy
cheeks to catch and hold and glorify all
the tears OF grief. "-Ingersoll.

Funeral Of Henry Cobb.

Friends came from far and near
yesterday to pay their last repects to
one who had endeared himself to them
by his uniform %good-nature and happy
disposition. That he was a general
~favorite was demonstrated by the throng
that assembled at the hall and the long
procession that followed the body to
the grave. Brother Knights came from
Reno, Wadsworth, Virginia and Daton
to take last look and every one had
a kind word to say of his deceased
comrade and friend.
The services were under the auspices
OF the X. of p. Grand Lodge and We're
very impressive, Rev. j. w. Hyslop
read the burial service and Rev. F. L..
Nash offered a prayer. The singing by
the Presbyterian choir Composed OF
Mrs. Furlong, Miss Oliver, Messrs.
Adams and Meder) was sweet and
pathetic, although the effort required to
sing over the body of one whose voice
had so often mingled with theirs in
songs of praise or sorrow, was almost
beyond their strength. Mrs. Cagwin'-
solo, Tired" a particular favorite of
Henry's, was sung with a pathos that
brought the tears to every eve. The
floral offerings were rich and tasteful.
The procession was the longest seen in
Carson for years. Fully 100 mem
members of the Uniform Rank, X. of
P, Dayton lode A. o. U. w, subordin-
ate lodges of the Knights and the Car
son lodge Of Workmen-were in line,
and no less than forty carriages COM
pleted the solemn procession.--Carson

ladies we're very much admired and Miss
Belle Budden was awarded the prize ian
elegant white bouquet) the Judges de-

"Don't be a hypocrite before your
boy" writes Robert j. Burdette in the
Ladies' Home Journal. "When he
believes You to be infallible don't en-
courage the belief. Take him into your
life as you desire to be taken into his.
Don't tell him that when you were a
boy you never gave your parents a
moments uneasiness; were never cross
to your little sister, never disobeyed
your teacher, was never cruel to dumb
animals, and always kept the golden
rule. Be honest with him above all
tn ,ngs. Don't be dignified Wit b n j.
The more he loves you the more he
lives in your arms, the more he plays
with you, and the less he fears you the
more profoundly will he respect you.
Pity the man, who, in order to secure
and retain proper respect from his
children, has to wear at all times an
uncomfortable veneer artificial dignity"

A Spirit Bell.

"There is a spirit bell in Arizona that
is almost universally believed in" said
W. H. johnson of Tombstone. SIT is
about 40 or 80 miles from Tucson, at a
convent which was formerly monas.
terry. 1t is one of the oldest cathedrals
and converts in the United States, hav-
ing been built long before Arizona was
part of this country. The story goes
that there were originally seven silver
bells, but one night some sacrilegious
person stole one of them.
cat midnight these chimes are rung,
and the seven bells can be distinctly
heard. One of them, however, is sep
arate from the others, and when they
are silent it keeps up its musical tones
as it passes down from the tower and
through the cathedral. Upon some holy
days spirit monk can be seen carrying
the bell away from the tower, but at
other times no one can be seen. The
chimes are rung at other hours, but
there are but six bells, and an inspec-
ton of the tower disclcSes but six. The
convent is visited by almost every tour
list who comes to Arizona, but none OF
them has ever solved the mystery of the
spirit bell. st. Louis Globe-Democrat

PRAISE FOR THE WEATHER CLERK.
His Predictions Are More Accurate Than
Is Commonly Supposed.

His Predictions Are More Accurate Than
Is Commonly Supposed.
The weather forecasts are sometimes
complained of as being not very accu-
rate. But it appears from the annual
report of the meteorological council just
issued that the failures are not so numer-
GUS as is generally supposed. A sum-
mary of results shows the percentage to
have been as follows: Complete success,
46; partial success, 33; partial failure, IA;
total failure, z. This gives a total per-
centage of successes of 70, which in a
climate so variable as ours must be re-
garded as a very fair average.
We have on former occasions referred
to the facilities afforded by the meteoro-
logical Office for inquiries about the
weather. Any person applying at the
office between II a. M and p. m. on
week days and between Z p. m. and s
p. m. on Sundays can be supplied, in
writing, with the latest information in
the possession of the Office and with the
latest forecast issued for any specified
district on payment of shilling for
each inquiry. Application may also be
made by letter, inclosing 10 pence in
stamps if the reply is to be by post, and
a shilling in stamps, in addition to the
cost of the reply consisting of 10 words,
exclusive of the address,, if the reply is
to be by telegraph.
Any person may obtain by telegraph
from the meteorological Office the latest
information as to the weather in any
district of the United Kingdom by pay
ment of fee of shilling in addition to
the cost of telegram and reply to any
postoffice. The telegram containing the
inquiry must be addressed as follows:
"To Weather, London" The payment
for the reply should be for at least 10
words in addition to the address. Ap-
plication may also be made for similar
information to be sent either by tele-
graph or post on some future specified
day.-W estminster Gazette.

American Champagne.

At banquet in this city, given in one
of the popular restaurants, half pint
bottle of champagne was set beside each
plate. 1t bore French label, but not
such label as those who drink cham
payne are accustomed to see.
"What kind of wine is this?' asked one
who could with difficulty tell the differ
ence between champagne and bottled
crab apple cider of gentleman across
the table who has a right to have such a
question put to him.
fThat's what puzzles me-" and he
read the French label with an English
pronunciation. 81 never saw that brand
before. 1t is evidently some new mild
champagne, adapted to the use OF those
who would get heady on heavier wine,
drinking it glass at time because it
has pleasant taste"
Nothing more was said, but the inquis-
tive person pushed his inquiries in an
other direction, few days later, and
was told that the champagne was made
in Ohio-a pure article, and mild and
palatable one, but it was necessary to
have French labels on the bottles to
make it salable.
Aid yet all the speeches on that occa-
sion were full of American ardor. The
American birds plumage was extolled
as the finest in the world, but the Amer
lean wine had to be palmed off with a
foreign name.-Indianapolis Journal.
