A CAMEL IN GRANITE.

One to Be Found in Arizona That Is q
Perfect Likeness.
One of the most curious rock forma-
zona. 1t is short distance east of the
stage road between Tucson and Or
acle. and stands on a knoll several
feet above the surrounding sandhills.
When first seen the effect is startling,
and the mind has to get over a shock
before the peculiar object can be COM
pretended. 1t is most perfect rep
resentation of camel, and is formed
of one piece of granite.
This curiosity, says the Pittsburgh
Dispatch, is of colossal size, but per-
fectly proportioned. 1t is about sixty
feet high and very wide and smooth.
There are very few assures on the sur
face, and they, strangely, are in the
proper places to form features. The
only real projection from the surface
is exactly placed for an eyebrow. The
two humps are plainly to be seen, and
the neck is curved beautifully. The
rock is really solid piece rising from
the ground, but the effect of legs is
produced by clump of dark-colored
brush that grows beside the stone.
The white stone shows plainly on both
sides of the brush, and the effect of
the legs is Enthusiastically produced.
The strangest part of it is that it looks
like a camel from all sides and at all
times of the day or night. There is no
Disgusting the resemblance.

THE STATE TICKET.

The republicans of the state have good
reason to feel elated tins year, for it is
certainty that victory is theirs. With
the widespread dissatisfaction as to the
nations finances and the democratic
party's mismanagement and incapa-
bility, dissatisfaction as to a president
not only not in sympathy with the
people, but his own party as we'll, it
only remained for the republicans to
nominate good. clean ticket to march
forth to victory which will sound forth
to the country as the trumpets before
Ninevah. That has been done. The
state ticket is composed of men whose
private life is blameless, who have be-
come distinguished throughout the state
for valuable services heretofore rendered,
who are honorable, trustworthy and
efficient. w. F. Lord has long and
useful record as a soldier, jurist and
statesman; Harrison Kincaid, for secre-
tary of state, is we'll known as an editor
and writer; r. E. Wolverton, for
supreme judge, is man of spotless char
acter, great fairness and unquestioned
ability; G. NJ. Idleman, for attorney
general, though a young man, is fast
rising to the heights of his profession,
and his nomination is fitting recogni-
tion of the worth of the young men OF
the party; for state treasurer nothing
need be said of Phil Metschan, he will
poll a larger vote than ever; G. M.
Irwin, for superintendent of public in
struction, is a veteran educator, and a
republican and patriot of the old school
w. II. Leeds, for state printer, is thor
oughly competent to fill that position,
and the fact that he has managed his
own business so successfully insures an
economical and capable officer for the
state. The candidates are about evenly
divided, ,as to localities. The ticket cannot
breed an iota of dissatisfaction among
the republicans of the state, who should
vote the ticket this year as one man.

rating tariff reform. It was the first
time the party, which believes in re-
duction of the tariff and a tariff for
revenue only, had been in entire centrol
of the senate and and house of repre-
seDtatives with a member of the party
in the presidential chair for over twenty
five years, and yet what has the party
done? Nothing, absolutely nothing ex-
eept talk. The promised action for
which the democratic party has been
put in power to bring about has not
been carried out, nor is there prospect
that it will be carried out. It begins to
look as though the democrats intended
to let the Mckinley bill stand un-
touched. Certain it is that the Wilson
bill is having hard time of it with a
good prospect of defeat.

the soda fountain cast comprehensive
glance over the trim, neat little figure,
braced himself against the mechanical
ice-chopper and awaited his fair Gus
TONER'S order. She was pretty pirl.
dressed in blue yachting suit, boiled
shirt-waist and sailor hat, with a white
lace veil stretched tightly across her
face; so tightly, in fact, that the long,
curling eyelashes projected through It.
"What can give you?" he asked. at
length, as the maid showed no dispose
ton to say what she would have. but
stood slowly unbuttoning her gloves.
There was no reply TO this hospitable
query. but the unbuttoning process still
went on.
Il beg your pardon, Miss" repeated
the clerk, deftly toying with an acid
phosphate bottle, "but I did not quite
catch your ORDER"
Il haven't ordered anything yet, re-
piled the young woman. Finally, "How
can do so until I have removed nv
veil?"
The dispenser of syrups and sodas
stared somewhat when he heard this
question; then a self-satisfied smirk
stole over his features. Of course, he
thought, she wanted him to see her face
more distinctly. But to make sure of
this, with a killing boardwalk glance,
he said:
Really, Miss, if you'll excuse me. I
don't see what the veil has to do with
it. l can hear the-ahem!-sweett tones
OF your voice quite clearly"
Perhaps you can, replied the maiden
frigidly, who by this time had succeeded
in removing her veil, "but if you had
any sense you would have noticed that

A Bit of Compliment.

The tramp whom the lady of the
house had admitted to the kitchen table
and was giving a dinner of her own
cooking was such pleasant-looking
fellow that she became quite interested
in him. After busying about awhile
she ventured into conversation.
"You have not always been in this
business, have you?" she asked.
mo, madam" he replied briefly.
"Ah, l thought SO. You have seen
better days, then?"
He looked at the fine piece of pie and
big glass of cold milk She set down on
the table for him to finish on and laid
down his knife and fork.
IF you mean by better days, madam, ("
he said, that I have not always been a
tramp. 1 will reply 'yes;' but if you
mean by better days that l have ever
had pleasanter surroundings than the
present or that l have surrounded
pleasanter things" and he blushed, "I
will say emphatically that have not, !"

that she almost wanted to take him as a
permanent boarder.-Detro1 Free Press.

Bozzle, Il used to wonder how the con-

always seemed to me that the clerks
would eat so much candy that they
would eat up all the profits. remem-
Der reading or hearing later that this
was not so; that when new clerk came
into the store the proprietor would say:
Now, hope you will eat all the candy
you want; don't hesitate to help your
self at any time and that the result of
this was that at the end of a week she
was so sick and tired of candy that she
hated the sight of it, and didn't want
any more for year. This, I suppose,
might be called the surfeit cure.
After l had grown up and came to
have family I remembered this and
thought | might turn the idea to ad-
vantage. I had four children and the
amount of money they spent for ice
cream and candy and soda water was
something awful. I thought that by
spending in lump enough money to
make them tired of those things | might
In the long run make a considerable
saving. So set aside $1,000 for that
purpose, and one day l said to my old
est child:
@'Tillie, I don't think you and the
children are beginning to have the ice
cream and candy that you ought to
have. l am afraid you think that be-
cause papa isn't very rich you must
skimp yourselves about those things,
but you needn't; you can have all the
money you want for them. Here's $50.
Now wish you would take the chill
dren out and get some ice cream and
candy, and whenever that money is
gone just let me know, and I'll give you
more
well, they used up that 81, 600 in about
ten weeks, and at the end of that time
they were as hungry for ice cream and
candy as ever. 1 kept up the supply of
money, l was like the gambler who
keeps on playing after he has lost lot,
IN the hope that his luck will turn. I
thought they might reach the surfeitine
point at any minute, and it seemed too
bad to make dead loss of the money
already invested, when perhaps the ex-
pendlture of few dollars more would
accomplish the desired result; so have
kept on. But the children's appetite
for ice cream and candy seems actually
to increase. They tell me am so good;
and that, of course, is something; like
to see them happy; but meanwhile my
hard-earned money is melting away,
and l am inclined to think that the
surfeit cure is delusion, if not snare"

HE WAS "coNJu'Ep."
Why Uncle Reuben Grew Sad and Mel.
anchOIv.

The colored coachman of a prominent
Washingtonian has long been distin-
gulshed for his jollity and general good
nature, says the Washington Star. Ac-
cordingly, when his employer and his
friends noticed couple of weeks ago
that Reuben had suddenly grown
morose and gloomy, much curiosity was
excited over the cause, and after a day
or two of steady dependency on the
coachman's part his employer called him
to account.
"Nur, sub" said Reuben, when asked
II ne was dissatisfied with his position
or II anything had gone wrong about
the stable. "Nur, sub; aim got muffin

%Misser Carl, as Reuben called him,
had frequently heard of the "coniure"
and "hoodoo" which some of the colored
people so devoutly believed in, but
had never met victim of the deadly
magic and consequently he was inter
ested.
Tell me about it, Reuben, he urged,
gently.
"Dey amt much ter tell, boss" was
the doleful response. "You knows wen

shook his head.

"Then I can drive your hoodoo away"
calculated "Misser CARL" with hopeful
enthusiasm. "A darky's hoodoos can't
last long against white mans medi-
cine"
Reuben gave CHASTITY smile of pleas
ure and that night he took with alacrity
the pills his employer gave him. The
next afternoon he was as bright and
clipper as ever
"Misser Carl is wun CRATE w'ite
