4 Talk tn the Junior Members of the
Howard Literary Club.

Friends. One and ALL greet you. but
have decided to talk particularly to the
Junior members this time
The approach of Easter calls TO mind
many Of the pleasures Of childhood and,
while I would not forget Him who rose
from the dead To proclaim salvation To
the world lost in sin, think Easter
should bring joy to the heart of every
one.
We should not only fill the air with
songs of rejoicing at His birth. but re-
ioice that He conquered death; that lie
robbed the grave of its victory.
Since He has risen who once was slain,
We die in Christ TO live again.

NV first remembrance of these cele-
brations brings TO my mind roomy old

come and bring us eggs.
Every old hat that could be found
was carefully lined with green leaN IS

of our family-and it was customary
10 invite the neighbors' little ones.
Sometimes we would find Easter lilies
to help beautify the nests, and when
this decoration was done we placed them
where the rabbit could come. Then we
were told TO go 20 the other part of the
house and listen till we heard the horn
blown.
Well, the rabbit was all a fraud; it
was baked Of a sweet dough- and was
brought by the village baker and
perched in the attic window. Then the
baker would blow the horn. as is Gus

UNCLE EPHRAIM'S H0ME-GOlKG.

There were two Of them. Sworn

The other Of this pair Of friends-Uncle

would not talk much at first. but a few
skitlfully put questions drew out his
story.
When he went back he found no trace

had passed into other hands. Not a

brothers and sisters had all died or
moved away. SO with most of his old

slow to recall him To mind and accord

"Thc BIood Is the Life"

Runs the old saying, and everything that
ever makes part of any organ OF the
body must reach its place therein
through the blood. Therefore. if the
blood is purified and kept in good condi-
ton by the use of Hoods Sarsaparilla.
ii necessarily follows that the benefit Of
the medicine is impaired to every organ
of the body. Can anything be simpler
than the method by which this excellent
medicine gives good health To all who
will try it fairly and patiently?

COST OF CITIZENSHIP.

when a Fee for Registration Was
 Charged in Phoenix.
 Yesterday afternoon several gentle men were sitting in the Review office talking about elections and such things. "Have you registered yet, Mills ?" asked L. J. Wood, who became mon- omaniac on the subject of registration during the late municipal campaign.
 Mot yet" said Mills.
 'Let's go over to JohnstoDe's office and register now," proposed Wood.
 "I haven't any money now to pay the fee," replied Mills. "You don't have to have any," explained everybody in the room, and they gave him an equine smile which attracted crowd in front of the offiee.
 "Well, you have to pay fee," said Mills, "unless the laws been changed in the last two years; 1 know that, be- cause I had to pay it then. Huson reg isteIed me, and when he got through he said it was quarter. 1 didn't know that and I entered demurrer. He in- sisted on the fee, but finally proposed that we shake dice to see whether got my registration for nothing or should pay double fee. We shook ard lost. That registration cost me fifty cents. Guess 1 wont get registered today"

THE NEW JAIL.
A $25,OOO Bond Issue Ordered by
 tha Supervisors.

A $25,Ooo Bond Issue Ordered by
 tha Supervisors.
 The foundation of the new county jail was laid yesterday. Not the ma terial foundation of stone and cement, but the equally material step of decid- ing to have new jail was taken and the method of raising the funds was decided upon by the board of super vIsors. An order was entered for the issue for the construction of the jail, of $25,00O worth of 6 per cent coupon bonds payable in twenty years or re- deemsble in ten.
 Advertisement will be made for plan s for the new structure and for tenders for the bonds. The jail will be built south of the court house but detached from it. The front of the jail will face the rear of the court house. Beyond this everything is to be left to architects, builders and manu- lecturers of jail appliances. The room occupied by the present jail will be employed for office purposes, as the off, fees now in use are insufficient in num- Der for the growing needs of the county. The grand jury yesterday, for instance, was obliged to meet in Justice John stones office on Wall street in the ab- sence of room in the court house.
 It is believed that the bonds will readily sell at par to home purchasers, and on account of the large volume of unemployed money in the east, it is possible that premium may be ob- tained which will materially lower the rate of interest.

Political Illustrations.

During presidential years Eli Per- kins often illustrates his theory of satire and 'idicule by political stories, but the audience can never tell whether the hum orist is Republican or a Demo- crat. Last year, when they were find- ing {, good deal of fault with Cleveland, Mir. Perkins showed how hard it is to get perfect men.
 "When President Lincoln was select. ing the Quaker Indian commissioners. ," said Eli, Che called in Ben Wade and Voorhees, and explained what kind of men he wanted to appoint"
 !" Gentlemen, for an Indian com missioner said the president, I want pure-minded, moral, Christian man frugal and self-sacrifcing-a perfect man."
 "'I think interrupted Voorhees,, that you wont find him.
 "'Why not?'
 "'Because, MT. President, he was crucifed about 1900 years ago." said the senator.

supplying vacancies in other county offices.
 The appointing power in all other cases lies in the board of supervisors, but the appointee to vacancy Tn the probate judges office is named by a commission composed of the chairman of the board of supervisors, the county treasurer and the county recorder. The two latter mem bers are Democrats, the remaining member, Chairman Priest, is Republican.
 The many friends of Judge Jordan about the court house and throughout the city hope that there may be such early and favorable changes in his con- dition as will render his contemplated step unnecessary.

A Rumor of Probate Judge Jordan's
 Intended Resignation.
 The resignation of Probate Judge Jordan is probably an event of the early future. The cause assigned is continued i'll health, which for several months has prevented his supervision of the affairs of the office It was re- ported that the resignation would be rendered yesterday, but at the close of business yesterday afternoon no such action had been taken. The judges health for several days past has been such as to awaken serious apprehen- sion, though yesterday morning he was better.
 Judge Frank Baxter. his predecessor in office, is already mentioned as his successor. Whoever the successor may be it is assured that hs will be a Democrat. A vacancy in this office is for some reason filled by other means than those employed in
