Took The wrong Road.

Sunday morning Dr. P, G. Cornish and c. H. Coble left here for trip around the Peaks. They took the road east, and when about twenty miles out, instead of taking the left hand road they kept on towards Tuba City and did not discover their mistake until they reached Aliens ranch nine miles this side of the Little Colorado river. They were compelled to remain there all night, without anything to eat but a sandwich and no water to drink.
 They started on their return Monday morning when the tire of the Doctors wheel got punctured and he had to walk thirty-tive miles and this without water. He was hailed finally by a sheep herder who gave him water and something to eat. Coble who had gone ahead, met John Grady who re- licved his need for food and drink and they soon found Dr. Cornish. The bicyclists not returning Monday mCrl- iug team was started out on the west side of the mountain with John Grady as driver, who met Coble as stated at noon. A. T. Cornish and Niles Cam eron started with a carriage around the east side of tbe mountain and met their team sent out in the morning be- yond the Jack Smith spring, with the tired and dejected riders and their ma chimes. The safe return of the lost riders was hailed with joy by their friends as it was feared that they had met with some serious accident. Dr. Cornish says that he would willingly have given $100 for drink of good water, on Monday morning. They had an experience which they will not soon forget and in future no rides will be taken over the desert.

TIE tariff bill is either dangerously near oeath or some very heavy bluff inc is being indulged in. The disa- greement which; the conference com mittee has reported leaves one in doubt as to which is the real sitIation' While the disagreement is in toto it Is known that if an agreement could have beeH reached on sugar, coal and iron ore there would have been little difficulty in fixing up the other amendments. If the House insists upon the stand taken by it confcrees as to sugar, coal and iron ore there will be no tariff bill passed, as in addition to the six or eight democratic senators who forced the acceptance of amendments placing duty upon those articles upon tnc"'r party colleagues in the Senate, the solid republican vote can be depended upon to support them in their demand that those amendments remain in the bill.

THERE is no such thing as justice in the United States in the punishment of crime. There is no standard by which guilt can be measured and the degree of the offence determined. We have nothing but a confused medley of crim- inal codes with every possible variation in their application.

ST. LOUIS EXPOSITION.

The history of the St. Louis ExpOsi- tion which opens Sept, 5th, and closes Oct, 20, 1894, is without rival in the history of annual State Propositions. Its success for the past ten years, and particularly last year, notwithstanding other attractions notably the COlum- bian Exposition, which Exposition was greater and grander than any ever held in the caritols of Europe-the St. Louis Exposition was filled with ex- hibits. and made money nearly S25.- GOO; making the history of the St. Louis Exposition unrivallpd, and it's future sure for years to come.
 The season of 1894 is already assured. The exhibit made by the State of Mis- souri at the Columbian Exposition was brought intact to the St. Louis ExpOSi- tion for exhibition; and is now being put in place. The exhibit consists of all the Missouri exhibits, and will i'm press every MissOurian. as well as every citizen of the United States, with the resources of the State of Missouri. The Horticultural. Agricultural, Mineral and Forestry exhibits. with that of the System of Popular Education through out the State, and our own Public Schools of St. Louis, will be shown to the best advantage. Ll the Forestry exhibit will also be seen collection of woods from the State of Amazon, Brazil. kindly donated to the St. Louis Exposition by the Brazilian COmmis- sioner. The Art Department will be filled with the very best pictures; and all other departments will be replete with fine exhibits of every description and variety.
 Sousa's Grand Concert Band will give four concerts daily Other at fractions will be added in the way of vocal and instrumental artists of ap- proved merit and reputation.
 Reduced passenger rates, as low as any in the past. have been made by all railroads centering in St. Louis.
 In one word. the St. Louis ExpOsi- tion for 1894 will excel many of it's pre- vious Ex positions. The Worlds Fair has past into history as one of the greatest Fairs ever held, and the man. agenient of the St. Louls Exposition Tn announcing the opening of the Eleventh St. Louis Exposition do so with the confidence merited by it's success Tn the past ten years. in giving the people of St. Louis and the surrounding country unsurpassed Annual Exposition.

An exchange truthfully states the case: The newspaper proprietor labors at disadvantage in tho time of money stringency as compared with a manufacturer. The latter can shut down his mill, but the newspaper pub fisher never finds time when he can shut down his plant and lay off his employees, until he has to do so for good. The newspaper must turn out regularly and the expenses continue right on just the same, in dull times as when the business is booming. Any retrenchment of the reading matter will immediately bring protest from the subscribers, yet many of these sub scribers fail to think of paying their bills.
