THE BAY OF NAPLES.

A Stretch Of water wherein Are Mingled
Precious Things Of Day and Night.
About Sorrento also there is some
thing of q Neapolitan flavor in the air.
The Neapolitan small boy is half mon
key. half comedian and all thief, and
here as elsewhere the boy is father to
the man. In Sorrento there is the mu
nicipal band, more memorable in Italy
than death itself: there are little COM
panies of men and women who dance
the tarantella in costume on the ter
races of the hotels, and sing vulgar
songs. which the foreigner takes for
national airs.
There are not, indeed. so many beg
gars rs In Naples itself and its neigh
borhood. but the perpetual attempt to
extract small coin from the visitor oc
cupies the sole and undivided attention
of at least one portion of the popula-
ton Here. as in Naples. the guide
guides not. but chatters. butchering
what he suppOses to be the foreigners
languague in order to make himself a
holiday. Here, rs elsewhere. the lively
donkey boy twists the patient ass tail,
ultimately requests You to dismount at
the steep places. and gets on himself.
Here. as in southern Italy. the small
receptions of a very poor and not very
clever people bring q smile to the keen
but often good .natured northerner's
face.
All this I might describe at endless
length had it not been done so often,
and in one or two instance so well.
There it all is, more or less lovely as to
its surroundings. more or less modern
in its buildings. more or less civilized
by the people that move upon the
scene. And below it. and before it
and facing it. stretches the sea.

wrought color. and the deeper tones o,
manipulated orange-gardens and olive
groves. and vines, are forever contrast

BOROUGH TOWNS.
The Extraordinary Powers Formerly Pos

The Extraordinary Powers Formerly Pos
sessed by Them in England.
Borough towns in England had for
merly extraordinary powers. Each had
its system of home rule, and was little
imperium in imperio. 1t controlled its
trades, manufactures and professional
occupations, the numbers to be en-
ployed, and fixed the price of wages
and commodities. 1t determined what
were offenses against the order, morals
and well-being of the borough, and its
codes assigned the punishments. Its
bylaws were tyranny, and its mayor
was frequently a little despot, as real
as any cadi of the east.
In the court of Hastings book were
recorded the presentments of the jury,
and we know from these what were
the offenses and modes of punishment.
The magistrates at sessions did as much
for county matters and fixed the prices
of all labor. No one could trade from
one county to another without their
license, just as no stranger could follow
an occupation or reside in borough
without the mayors permit. The
tumbrel, stocks, pillory, branks and
the skimmington were the usual in
struments of punishment for slight of
lenses, but the cucking stool was the
favorite for scolds and cheating bakers.
Whipping was constantly resorted to,
and was thought especially good for
women and boys. Anyone willing
might be employed to perform it. and
sometimes a woman undertook it for
the sake of the fee. which varied from
four pence to a shilling. To witness it
formed a part of public amusement. as
in the case of hanging. and men visited
the jails On whipping days to see the
women whipped. Forestalling-buy-
ing out of market to sell again above
market price-was very grave offense,
and was severely punished.
A Mr.. Rusby, an eminent corn fac
tor, was indicted in the court of kings
bench on July 4. 1900. for having pur-
chased by sample eight months before,
in Marklane corn market, 30 quarters
of oats at Al shillings per quarter, and
sold 80 of them again in the same mar
ket. on the same day. at A shillings.
The jury instantly found him guilty,
and Lord Kenyon, the judge. said to
them: You have conferred by your
verdict, almost the greatest benefit on
your country that was ever conferred
by any jury" A quiet stroll on Sun
day, during the summer evening. was
visited by heavy fine or the stocks. A
boy, for riding on q gate on a Sunday
afternoon, was ordered to be whipped.

PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.
For every great work there must be
the preparation of trial and temptation
and victory.
Therefore at the beginning Of the
Christian life comes the great tsmpta-
tion-the battle as to who shall rule the
soul: its success Is conversion.
Jesus Christ can help US in our temp

as we are, and because He gained the
victory. And we can help others, NO.

by overcoming the evil. and showing by

A Strong Protest

The following is from the Grass Valley Tidings:
 The miners employed in the En- pire ana North Star mines were informed Monday that their wages are to be reduced, and they were given three days to consider the matter. The wages are to be re- duced as follows: Men now receiv- ing $500 per day will hereafter be paid but S2.50; men receiving $2.50 per day will be cut 10 S225; and men now receiving the latter named sum will receive but $2.00 This means that Grass Valley, the most prosperous and largest mining town in the state, is to be reduced 10 Il @ level of the dago mining camps of Amador and Calayeras count, S. Three dollars a day has always been the prevailing rate of wages paid to miaers in this district, and it is now to the interest of the miners and the business men to see that these wages are sustained.
 The men beleive that the only way to keep up wages IS to stand out against beginning of a reduc- ton. The matter has caused con- siderable excitement in Grass Valley,

seen the mine unhesitatingly pro nounce tt the biggest find yet to be chronicled. The orc IS siliciOus in it's character, and i: is considered what miners would term a very pretty vein. Every available foot of ground adjacent 10 this new mine is. iH consequence being prospected.
 \ test run oE I40 tons of ore was made last week of Red Buck ore and the returns given are highly satisfactory to the men interested. X partial clean up made of the plates gave good sized bar of gold, while it is said as much more re- mained. Messrs. Lewis X Waters the principal packers of this new mining proposition were in Pres colt Friday and informed several friends that they were more than pleased with the property, and left that day for Denver. The run was made with 20 stamps, but 1t is now the intention to have the full 40 stamps dropping in the future. Probably no mining enterprse in- augurated in this section of late years has attached to 1t so much good for the future as hinges on the success of the above mine, and as these gentlemen expressed 1t, a large amount of Colorado capital may be expected in the near future for investment in this immediate vicinity. The mine is said to be looking we'll, and work Is still go- ing on in 1t.

 Representative Hartman, of Mon tana, has presented strong resolu- tions in the house in favor of free coinage, adopted by the powerful labor organizations of the country. The resolutions are as follows: We demand of the present congress immediate return to the money of the constitution as established by our fathers, by restoring the free and unlimited coinage of silver at a ratio of 16 to l, the coins of both metals to be equally full legal ten der for all debts, public and private, as before the fraudulent demoneti- zation of silver in 1873. We also condemn the increase of the national debt in time of peace and the use of interest bearing bonds at any time. D

COL. BRoDrE wIrHDRAws.
The Present Recorder is Out of the Field
 of Politics.

Colonel A. O. BrOdie, county re- corder, to-day formally retires from the political field. In an interview with representative of this paper, he desires that bis name be with drawn as a candidate for any office in the gift of the republican party, and states that his action in with drawing should be definitely and clearly settled before the heat of campaign comes. In taking this step tn enter private life, Colonel Brodie is actuated by motives best known to himself, and in order that he may desote his time to other business. He also desires that his friends should know as soon as pos sible of his final determination in this matter, that his name may not be associated with any office he has so prominently been mentioned in connection wi;h of late ir politi- cal life. The announcement of the above gentleman's desire to retire from participation in the coming campaign particularly, is to be re- gretted. He has become a popular and accommodating official, so much so. in fact, that even his political adversaries feared the mentioning of his name for any office. Although a new man in political life, he is a pioneer Arizonan, and his name will be readily recalled in connection with military service under Crook and others in the early days of the '70's, as an officer of the army. Mir. Brodie retires from the office he now holds with the good will of all, and though a republican to the beck bone, has won the regard of the opposite party by his obliging manners and courteous treatment to all.
