A Tree with ! Temper.

'There ara more queer things to the
acre in Arizona than any other part Of
this land" said Col. Brace Dioo, Of
Hoock's Tank, Apache County, 'and, &C.
cording to my idea and know pretty
near what queer things are-the queerest
thing in all Arizona is the tree that has .
temper worse than a. blonde comic opera
prima donna's, and gets its dander up
with just as small provocation. They tell
me out there that this tree belongs IT, the
coniferous species. 1t grows to be some
thing like 25 feet high and then stops.
Its leaves are long, slender and pointed.
like porcupine quilts. When this tree Is
in good humor it spreads pleasant aro-
matte odor all around. But when it IL
angry every leaf on the tree rises up on
end and the aspect of that particular
piece of timber is about rs fierce and
threatening as anything you would care
| to look ut. The pleasant reslnous odor
the tree sends forth in its peaceful mood
gives way to an odor that will put wings
on your feet to place as much distance as
you can between the offensive tree and
yourself"
"This tree is especially touchy on the
subject Of dogs, and the coming of ca
nine anywhere near it will instantly make
it furious. Yet wolf, q grizzly bear or
a mountain lion never rufi1es the temper
of this tree if those animals do not pre-
sumo on too great familiarity with it.
They may lie around it as long IS they
care to, but if one of them so far forgets
itself as to rub or scratch the trunk of the
tree the hot-tempered thing will fly into
one of the tantrums instantly, and the
way Mr.. Bear, Wolf or Lion will make
himself scarce in those parts is whole
circus to see. Nothing will work this
tree up to concert pitch, though, SO quick
and effcctually as throwing stones at it.
Then it will actually rip and tear, and no
living thing would think of going within
Qunshot of it. Some folks out at
Houck's Tank call this tree the porcupine
tree, and some say its right name is skunk
tree. call it the holy terror tree. But,
no matter what you call it, it is queer
Job of nature, and Arizona claims it as
her own.-New York Sun.

GEORGE W. cHILos DEAD.

Phila del phia Loses Its Most Distinguished
Citizen BY . Stroke OF Paralysis.
f. PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 4-George w.
Childs, proprietor of the Public Ledger.
died this morning at 3:O1 o'clock at his
residence at the southeast corner of
Twenty-second and Walnut streets
from the effects of stroke of paraly-
sis sustained by him on January 10.
Shortly before 10 o'clock last night
night Mr.. Childs' respiration became
embarrassed and his pulse began to
flag. His physicians recognized the
signs of approaching dissolution, and
although everything that medical
science and skill could do to prolong
life was done. Mr.. Childs sank rapidly,
and at 3:O1 o'clock this morning the
generous heart that beat so kindly for
his fellow men was stilled in death.
In the death of Mr.. Childs Philadel
phia loses one of the citizens of which
the city was most proud and the
country at large one of its best known
private citizens From his early boy
hood Mr.. Childs' life was such that it
can stand as a model and example to
all men for what noble manhood and
an honest, upright, conscientious life
should be- The story of the struggles
of a poor and friendless boy in lit
tie position to be one of the great pub
fishers of the world, and the honored
and sought-for friend of eminent men
in all walks of life, reads like ro-
nance. He was born at Baltimore,

Precautions of q Captain Prevent . Pos
sible Massacre.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. Capt Trefry,
Of the British ship Celeste Burrill,
which has arrived here from Luzon
islands, with cargo of hemp and
sugar, thinks that his vessel had a
barrow escape from being boarded by
pirates in the Sunday straits, a stretch
Of water formerly as famous for its
Malay freebooters as was ever the
Spanish main for its buccaneers
According to Capt. Trefry's story he
was beating up toward the Sunday
straits. When about sixty miles from
them he sighted a boat filed with men.
At first he paid no attention to the boat
or its occupants. After the Burrin had
passed New AMER. a Dutch military
settlement on the coast of Java, and
was well inside the straits the boat
pulled up rapidly on the slow moving
ship and finally as it pulled up closer
to him he became suspicious.
The boat was crowded with sixty or
seventy Malays, and when a man, who
seemed to be the leader of the party,
hailed the Burrill and asked if they
might come aboard, Capt Trefry shout
ed back refusal, but said one man
might come on deck. The boat pulled
in alongside the ship. and as soon as
the seeming leader of the Malays had
grasped the rope and had started up
the ships side, Capt Trefry sheered off
from the. boat The Malay pretended
that they wanted to sell fruit, but
Capt. Trefry doubted his story.
After remaining on board for some
time and the ship having cleared the
straits and reached the open sea, the
Malay started to his own boat and he
and his rough-looking companions dis
anneared among the islands

A FAmily Laxutiv~

Physicians are not inclined to recommend
Sc II medication to the laity. Yet there is
one need which they are almost unable to
supply. We refer to the ''family laxative. /"
The family physician is able to prescribe
Tor the most complicated and obscure Of
maladies and yet is often puzzled to know
lust what to give when asked for q remedy
which can be kept in the house for family
Ne as q laxative, that shall be effective,
Tree from danger, and not unpleasant to
take. When absent on our summer vaca-
ton we were asked by four different parties,
representing as many families, what we
thought OF the ''Syrup Of Figs" Not one
word did we volunteer on the subject, and
W were somewhat surprised to lind that
there was this small token of the very gen.
eE1l use OF that preparation. These parties
said they derived more benefit from it and
found it more pleasant to take than anything
OF the kind they had ever used. The simple
question with them was, is it dangerous
compound! We informed them that its
active ingredient was preparation of SEN
ma, and that it was entirely free from dam
ger. With this assurance they volunteered
the information that they should continue
to keep 1t in the house.
The therapeutical properties Of senna are
30 well known that comment on this seems
unnecessary. 1t might be well to notice,
however, that Bartholow says it is "a very
safe and serviceable cathartic," and that it
Is highly priced as a remedy for constipa-
walton that its use ''is not followed by in
testinal torpor and constipation"
The simple truth Of the matter is, we have
altogether too few preparations which we
can recommend to our families as effective
laxatives. But the California Fig Syrup
company has one of the most desirable com g.
binations for this purpose with which we
are familiar. TIE Fig Syrup company gives
to the profession the composition of this
preparation, therefore, there is no secret
about it; the persons who use this laxative
speak in the highest terms about it; and we
are pleased to notice that a large number Of
physicians are prescribing it.
Viewed from the narrowest and most
selfish standpoint the physician will lose
nothing by recommending such prepare
ton as Syrup of Figs to his patients; while
viewed from the highest standpoint of do
ing the best possible by those who place
themselves in our care, we would say the
profession cannot do better than give their
Endorsement to such reparation.-Amer-
lean Analyst.

CYCLONES COMMENCE.

Ravages of One in North Alabama Fifty
Persons Injured.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Feb. 5.-Further
details of Saturday nights storm,
which swept over this section of north
Alabama, shows the damage to have
been far greater than was at first sup
posed. At North Birmingham dozen
houses were blown down.
The worst damage was at Gate City,
where the Congregational church was
blown down. The Christian Endeavor
society, with fifty persons in attend
ance, was holding a meeting, and not
one of them escaped unhurt. Mrs. Il.
II. Pritchard was crushed by falling
beams. and died at midnight She
was the wife of the superintendent of
the Alabama rolling mills. and her
home was at Ironton o. A young man
named Williams died yesterday from
his injuries Mrs. James Miles re-
ceived fatal injuries. Charles Olson
and James Hartshorn were also proba.
bly, fatally wounded. From thirty to
forty others received injuries of a less
serious character.
Nearly every house in Gate City was
damaged by the storm. An immense
amount of timber in the track of the
storm was destroyed. The damage
will amount to large sum. At East
Birmingham church and school build
ing were wrecked. Near Chodcollocco
a tree fell on Mrs. j. F. McDowell's
house, killing her instantly. Tele-
graph wires were blown down and
many trees fell across railroad tracks.
So far four deaths have been reported.

SELF-RESPECT.

The way to keep man out OF the
mud is to black his boots" says Fred
erick Douglass.
This happy remark often occurs to
us when we see boys going to school
with shoes that have never known the
brush, with hair uncombed. faces not
too clean. ears unfit for inspection,
hands black and a cap that has evil
IDENTIFY known hard service as a missile
weapon. Such q boy is far more like
ly at least, both to talk and to act I'M
becomingly than Que who is clean and
tidy. Something within d tidy boy
compels him to live up to his appear
ance. The other boy is apt 70 live
down to his dirty boots.
Fixing upon boy an odious and be-
lifting nickname which lowers his
self esteem has the same tendency. SO
does ridiculing him for any natural de-
feet. The mistakes OF youth frequently
result from shyness, and this is greatly
aggravated by the jeers of his compan-
ions, and still more by the Impotence
OF a teacher.
MANY person now honored and es-
teemed in the world da tes his progress
upward from the moment when he re-
ceived from some honored lips word
OF encouragement. or discovered by
chance that he was not inferior to his
comrades. despite appearances to the
contrary.
We can hardly do q more injurious
act than to make another think
more meanly of himself than he ought
to think. Humility is an excellent
trait, but humility is very different
thing from the modification and self
abasement that sometimes result from
sneers or ridicule.
