Let it be "Appomattoz.'

The Post Office Department has or
dered that the name OF AppotattoX
Court House in Virginia be changed to
..Surrender.' 1t seems to have been
done in order 10 avoid confusion III the
roiIs. As a new station on the railroad
had been named Appomattox Station.
But the people oi Virginia and OF the
entire South viii be greatly displeased
at this The name Appomattox Is as
historic as Yorktown. The Dispatch
5ays:
Appomattox should be its name for
ever. But it a new name had to be
given it, we should not have chosen
that of "Surrender." At Appomattox
our people did something more than
surrender
No; Appomattox is the name right
Iy belonging to the historic site and
should SO remain. That the county
seat has been removed to the line of
the Norfolk and Western road affords
40 adequate reason TOR carrying the
name of AppomattOx with it. Let
the old place be Appomattox forever,
and let the people of Appomattox Sta
ION (Nebraska is the pOst-ofiice name)
select some other name Tor the county
8eat and post-oflice.
Since there have been an Appomat-
OK Courthouse and an AppomattOx
station (Nebraska), there has been
rluch confusion in the mails, and it is
oremedy this that the change OF Apo
.nattOx to "Surrender" has been made :;
out we submit that the railway compa-
ny should have chosen some other
name for its station than AppOmattox,
and then a special post-office name
would have been unnecessary.
''Appomattox" should have been left
to designate the spot where Lee made
his last stand ; the spot made sacred by
the valor, sufferings, and tears of the
Army of Northern Virginia ; the spot
which Is the Appomattox of history,
and whose honOrs never can be lawful
ly divided with village whose chief
distinction is That people leave the
railway trains there to visit the real
Appomattox. This we say without dis
creating the new county seat. 1t is a
pleasant place filled with pleasant peo-
pie; but it is not THE Appomattox
Courthouse. There is but one Apo
m1attOx Courthouse, and it makes little
difference that the buildings have been
burned and the county seat removed
therefrom. Besides, the name is now
always shortened to Appomattox, and
ior years past that has been It's post-of-
zee name. Other Virginia courthouse
owns are not to be compared with it.
None but itself can be its parallel

Arizona's Timber.

Representative Wheeler, of Alabama, in favoring the admission of Arizona in a speech said: Arizona possesses some of the finest and most valuable forest in the world, l call especial attention to the Mogollon forest, which covers an area of 10000 square miles, or 6, 40O,- 900 acres. being with probably one or two exceptions, the most extensive body of timber in the known world. The timber belt of northern Arizona alone covers an area of 10000 square miles, or 12, 800, ,O00 acres. In 1886 ties were sawed at Flagstaff for 300 miles of railroad in Old Mexico. and from this point great quantities of sawed lumber are yearly shipped, yet the fringe of the forest mantle has not been torn. The pine grows to height of l50 feet with a diameter of five, six and eight feet. In 1887 the governor made re- port stating this forest to be equal in extent to the combined area of New Jersey and Delaware, larger than Mas sachusetts. and double the size of the state of Connecticut.

Amei can Beauties.

There are American Beauties and American beauties--roses and women and each pays homage to the other. Our country is noted for it's lovely women and brilliant society leaders; and after seeing the portraits of nearly a score of '.Society Leaders of New York State" given in Demorest's Mag azinc for February, one is willing to concede that the Empire state can hold its own for the celebrity and beauty of its women of wealth and culture, for these portraits form charming collec- tion of typical New-World women that every one will will find pleasure in pos sessing.
 Then everybody will be interested iu the account of 'How Great Newspa- pers are Printed" with it's numerous illustrations, and the daily newspaper will acquire new interest afterhaviug read how it is made. Rough Riding" is interesting as well as amusing; and one must be entirely devoid of any sense of humor who is not moved to laughter by the humorous recital of the tribulations of the dude in rough riding class, and the illustrations which portray his ludicrous attitudes.
 Shall Incomes be Taxedp" the live question of the moment, is discussed by Chas A. Dana, Henry Clcws, Bras tus Wiman, Howard Gould, Hugh o. Pentecost, Thos. F. Gilroy aud Samuel Gompers. There are several excellent stories; "A Valentine Bee" furnishes illustrations and full directions for making lovely and unique valentines; liable Decorations by tho Home Flor ist" gives some excellent suggestions; in fact, there is something in this num- Der to please every one, exclusive of the over GOO illustrations that embellish it.

When War Is Declared

Against mans happiness by his stomach, the enemy may be pacitied and brought speedily and easily to terms. That potent regulator of diges- ton, Hostetter's Stomach bitters, disci- plines the rebellious organ thoroughly. Indigestion arises from weakness of the stomach, and the food in it. for want of power to digest, decomposes and acidifies, giving rise to heartburn, flat ulence and pain, besides multitude of symptoms both changeful and perplex- ing. But peace soon reigns when the great stomaclIic is resorted to and used with persistence. Dyspepsia gives rise to morbid discomposure of mind, and even sleeplessness and hypochondria in chronic cases. To the complete dis missal of these the bitters is fully ade- quate. Liver complaint, constipation, debility, rheumatism and malaria are completely subdued by this genial med- icine.

Two remarkable cases have occurred at Huachuca recently. The negro who was shot by soldier last Christmas is getting fat and doing duty again after suffering for several weeks with bullet in his brain. The piece of lead is still
 there but gives him no trouble. The other case is of a Mexican stabbed by a
 white man. The Mexican's bowels protruded and were frozen before assist ance reached him. He is also around and well. Such advertisements as these should call the attention of all health seekers to our superior climate.
