two famous mines, will play on the Middle

our town and if suitable grounds can be
secured they will be ready to meet all

sent challenges to two of the strongest
clubs in the State, and will probably play
his first game next week. The manager is
very anxious to secure grounds, and as
our town is known to patronize good ball
games, it could be made paying invest

and Gov. Fuller's reply was as fol-
lows:
''There is always a feeling of relief
when the jury renders a verdict of
guilty and the accused is sentenced
to be hanged. The agony seems to
be over in a measure, but it does not
contribute to the health or longevity
of the convicted party.
The present unfortunate condition
of the country, brought about by the
management of the present party in
power, can hardly become worse by
reason of an early adjournment of

LABOR IS Dign,fed.

In these days many OF our girls work
tor their living and feel no shame IN
doing so either. No more should they.
Labor is dignifed, employment is
healthy, and though one perhaps would
rather not be compelled to fight the
world in hand to hand combat, yet II
you h ave to do il, do so with all your
might. Half.hearted measures never
bring success. The secret key that opens
the door OF fortune is one made OF the
combined metals, ambition and effort.
You can forge 1t for yourself, and once
in your possession round after round OF
the ladder will be left behind until you
at last reach the top, nut you can't do It
by watching the clock and as soon as the
hands point to 8 or shutting up yonr
desk or hurrying the covers on the goods
and leaving, even though many matters
are calling for immediate attention. As
soon as you oegin to count the minutes
before you can get away just as soon You
will scover that others are winning the
golden op.nlons you are too listless 10
strive for. Make your employers in
terests your own. Work heart and soul
for the benefit Of the enterprise Of which
he is the head and you will not have to
worry about your reward. The world is
full Of drones, but active, pushing, ener-
getic people are scarce and will soon be
discovered. Cavil not at tasks that per-
haps seem out of your regula. line OF
duty. Accept them all, large and small,
in the spirit of helpful earnestness that
will leave marx in the work you ac-
complish and will gain Its reward in the
recognition that it will certainly receive.

Fare of the ARK of the Covenant.

IL will probably never be known what
became OF the Ark Of the Covenant at
the time OF the destruction OF the Temple.
Even conjectures concerning 1t are alto
gether useless Some say that it was
taken away and destroyed by Nebuchsd-
nezzar. The Jews believe that it was
miraculously concealed from the spoilers,
and account it in among the hidden
things which the Messiah is 70 reveal
1t is admitted. however, from the exam
ination OF all Jewish writer's, that the old
Ark was never in the second temple, and
there Is no evidence on record to show
that new one was made. II is gener-
ally understood that the absence of the
Ark was one OF the important particulars
in which the second temple was regarded
as in ierior to that OF Solomon. Josephus
states that "the most holy place" WAS
vacant in the second temple, certain
rabbinical writer's assert that its place
vas simply marked by stone. The fact
that Ezra, Nehemiah and the Mtrcabees
frequently mention the other sacred
utensils, but never refer to the Ark
seems TO be an acknowledgment on their
part that they knew nothing Of the great
memorial Of the covenant.-St. LOUIS

The Colorado Sun has this TO say Of us
"the common eastern impression OF Ari.
zona is that it is all desert waste
parched plains aud hills OF burnt rock
and that with the exception OF few
mines of gold and silver, she has no re-
sources of wealth. But Arizona has
wide valleys stretching along rivers that
f)w full and clear to the sea, capable OF
yielding wealth Of grain and fruit that
is almost past estimate. The valley of
the Colorado alone is larger and more
fertile than the delta Of the Nile, which
was the chief support Of the rarest and
perhaps the richest Of the ancient civil
cations. The valleys of the Salt and the
Gila are each yet more extensive. Their
water supply is not 80 abundant, but |,
can be made ample. These three valleys
alone can support population equal to
that OF Ohio"

GEMS OF THOUGHT.

Render to C9sar the things which are C@sar's, and to God the things that are Gods.
 A happy heart will make happy life.
 The true patriot loves God for the care of his native land.
 He who can suffer for a good cause is on the road to heroisDl.
 If we would overcome the laws of nature, we must not resist; we must bal ance them against one another.
 There is nothing ignominious about poverty. It may even serve as healthy stimulus to great spirits.
 It is not in our open, exposed deeds that we need the still voice of the silent monitor, but in the small secret every day acts of life.
 There is less misery in being cheated than in that kind of wisdom which per- ceives, or thinks it perceives, that all mankind are cheats.
 If we could read the secret history of our enemies, we should find in each mans life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.

The Horse.
A Two-FoRTY CLIP.

Preparatory work for races is long. tedious and patient task, and is study that all trainers are not fitted to perform, as so many can't sit still and wait until their horse is ready for race such as they will have to go now to win i'll the fast classes.
 The man who wants to breed the best class of roadsters in the world should be very careful to select mares that not only have strong dash of the Morgan close up, but should aim to get those which have the true Morgan characteristics is the advice of The Horse Breeder.
 A man that will whip horse, excited by fear, should Je forever debarred from handling horse in any way.
 After man once owns good horse it Is just as hard for him to go back to an old plug, as it is to discard tailor made suit of clothes for homespun jean.
 It is easy enough winning when your horse outclasses the field, it is quite a different thing landing the money when the other fellows are about as good as you are.

CHICKEN THIEVES ABROAD.

Sergeant Nicholson feels sorely grieved at the treatment he has received from some chicken thieves who visited his poultry yard, the past week. and took away 26 out of the 20 of his earliest chick ems just ready for market, leaving him the three smallest. He feels that he has been inhumanly treated, leaving him the smallest; he thinks they ought to have left him at least an average. He had a dummy sentinel stationed by his coop but that failed to protect them. He now has live sentinel, good marksmap, and double barreled breech loading shot gun in front of the sentinel.
