The name "Arizona" Is from

The name "Arizona" Is from a
beautiful old Aztec tradition which
teaches that the earth is the Off
spring of the sky; that, long prior
to che present race of men, the
earth was peopled by race of gi-
ants, who in time died off, leaving
the earth uninhabited. After a
long time, q celestial virgin, child
of one of the sixteen great deities,
who rule all things, CAIN" down to
the earth, and, being we'll pleased,
remained for long time its sole
occupant. Once when in deep
sleep, drop of dew from heaven
fell upon her, and she bore two
children, a son and daughter, from
whom have sprung all the people Of
the earth. The name of this ce.-
lestial virgin was Arizuna "the
beautiful, or sun-beloved maiden.

Irrigation I'm India.

A large proportion of the cult
waited land in India is irrigated by
water raised from we'll, This is
not pumped, as is generally assum-
ed in this country, by means o.
windmills or steam power, but 1t
is lifted laboriously, small bucket
full at time, by means of the well
sweep, 80 familiar in the e"stern
portions of this country, or by the
use of cattle, which raise the water
from the wells by rope and wind
lass. he volumes of water raised
by such processes are so small that
they must be handled with the
greatest care in order that they
shall reach the lands without being
wholly absorbed in the conveying
bitches, while the laborers who per
form the work are content to re-
ceive as wages from two to six
cents per day. BY such processes
a family Of two or three MN and
as many women raise on from two
to five acres of land sufficient pro-
duce to support them throughout
the year. 1t is unnecessary to
compare such rates Of wages and
such a mode of life with that lived
by the inhabitants of this country.
The patience, care and penury ex-
ercised by these simple orieutals,
which enables them to exc a salts
factory existence out Of such labor
and wages, will never be practiced
by American farmers. and will,
therefore, never enable US to de-
velop and utilize many of the mi
nor water resources of the country
which aid in making the cultiva-
ton on the semi-arid lands of India
so generally productive.

Meat is the most urgent necessi

Meat is the most urgent necessi-
ty of the French people, says. an
exchange The dairy must furnish
veal. Every calf that j. not need
ed for the dairy is fattened up to
two, three or four months for veal,
while in America milk-fed calves
are vealed at from five to six weeks
and sell at from SIS to IS per head :.
In France they bring from SIS to
$50 The calves are fed milk and.
finished off the last week with eggs
beaten up in milk. The veal calf
must have the white of the eye of
a white color to bring the best
price. Such calves produce deli

Citric acid is believed to owe it's
great virtues to its strong affinity
for, and solvent powers over urea,
with which it unites to form a SOL
uble salt, says the Medical World.
Uric acid is tue bane of civil
lied man, and to;this chemical body
in some form or other wei are most
indebted for our various forms of
rheumatism, gout, neuralgia and
kindred diseases. Lemon juice acts
most bene6cially in many of t4ese
cases. 1t is true, complications and
intercurrent diseases arise over
which citric acid may have no eff
feet, and which must first be- dis
placed before any amelioration can
be looked for, and it is where a
comprehensive knowledge and care
fully culled medical experience
comes into play. But it does not
remove the fact that an anterior
intelligent use of citric acid might
have prevented the whole train o:
degenerative changes.

It is said that the sea, city of
rain in Southern California this
season has caused the price of hay
to advance to 800 per ton. The
prevailing price for that commodi-
ty there when the conditions are
favorable to the raising of big crops
is from $6 to $40. Arizona will
now have an opportunity to ship
hay to California at q fair profit to
the shipper. Large quantities haAe
already been shipped from the Salt

o r Exhisi..


A late issue of the Boston Globe.
pays the following compliment to
our extlbit at the Midwinter fair:
ARIZONA has never made fruit
exhibit outside of her own confines
until now. December l, 1898. the
Phoenix Chamber of Commerce
decided to make showing OF tl,U
agricultural resources of the Salt
River valley at 9he MidwiRtrr fair.
The Chamber had its local show uf
some $50 jars of fruit which had
been put up since July !, 1893. 1t
was promised thirty boxes Of oran--
yes it it would make the exhibit,
so it called for the assistance Of the
people of Maricopa county. in
which the Salt River VALLEY IS To-
Gated, and in two weeks .,secarsd
sufficient funds and additional ar
tlcles to- exhibit, to warrant the
ful6llment of the project.
The exhibit is very PRETTY in,
stalled in booth of blue aud gold
III very desirable location imme-
'liately under the dome of the hor.-
ticultural building, upstairs on the
north .ile. The following are
.mong the articles displayed: Or
anges, lemons, olives, dates, grapes,
nectarines, peaches, figs, pears. nuts,
Strawberries, apricots. pomegran-j
ates, Japanese persimmons, al
,nonds, honey, prunes, plums, Pru-
nus Simoni, ounces and apples
There are also bale of sixth crop
OF alfalfa hay, six barrels OF veget-
Ables, among viii n il q Ber,nuda
sweet potato weighing forty pounds,
besides collection of twenty three
jars of different kinds OF grains
rhe only fresh fruit on exhibition
is the oranges. These are excel
lent aud visitors are asked TO taste
them. A California orange grower
says of them, The oranges I have
here tested are very similar in
sweetness, deliciousness of flavor,
shinness and higl c r of skin, and
general excellence TO the famous
Indian river oranges OF Florida
Nothing in California equals them
The exhibit fully demonstrates
the productiveness of Arizona's IA
vored valley, which has now over
26, 900 acres planted in fruit and
100000 trees are being set out this
season. The fruit ripens from two
to six weeks earlier than in Cali
fornia and the land sells. at from
$50 TO- $50 an acre including per-
petual water rights

HnScrsoll ON silver.

The silver question shorn \of it's
useless intricacies is thus simply
and plainly presented by Col. Robt.
G. Ingersoll:
81 said I would say one or two
words on such vulgar things as gold
and silver. I am satisfied, az I am
that l live, that the few who con-
troll the debts, the currency, the
money of the world, have combined
either conscientiously or unconsci-
entiously to make the debtor pay
more than the creditor has a right
to ask.
The tendency has always been in
this world to put the burdens OH
those least able to bear them. L.
barbarian countries the women
have to do all the work simply be-
cause they are the weaker-that is
all. And the others, being the
stronger, do not expend their own
strength in working, but expend
their strength in making the weak
er do their work.
This is precisely the same in our
civilized society today. Between
the rich and the poor, if the bur
den is to be borne in this country,
IL is borne by the poor-always.
They are the first to suffer. Let
the blast of war blow over the
country, who goes to war; Who
goes to the front? The million
aires9 Not one. Who goes The
presidents of great corporations |!
No. The men who preside over
great vaults Of gold Not much,
The poor man goes because nine
times out of ten the poor man is
the more patriotic. The poor bear
the burdens of this country and
the world. Only a few days ago
our money VAS gold and silver
money that had been the money of
man for thousands of years. Our
silver was demonetized and gold
made the standard.
There is no man in the United
States with ingenuity enough to
account for the demonetization of
silver in 1873. There is not one.
[ do not think the few should have
the right to combine to increase
the value of what people call money
against the debtors and in favor of
the creditors. I want free coinage
of all the silver you can mine from
the mines of America, and if there
are those who are not willing to
take silver we will not trade with
them"

A novel idea has taken possession
of not a few res,dents of Tomb
stone. Instead Of ,depositiag their
money in savings banks they, de-
posit it with Uncle Sam. and this
is the way they do it; They get
money orders for $50 payable to
themselves and leave them in. the
Office uncalled for for one year.

AN UGLY BLAZE,
Which Had Gained Great Roadway Before Discovered, Overcome
 By the Fire Laddies

Quite destructive fire took place at 1920 o'clock yesterday afternoon on Park avenue, between Twentieth and Twenty first streets. The fire was in the large two- story residence of Mrs. M. O. Smith, one side of which was occupied by herself and family and the other by MT. F. Caheen and family.
 The blaze started in the kitchen roof of the side occupied by MT. Caaeen from defective Hue, It burned for long time without being discovered, and by the time the fire department arrived 1t had gained considerable headway. Nearly all of the roof was burning inside before 8 single blaze was seen from the outside. After the blaze burst from under the roof it was but few minutes until the entire top was in sheet of flames. Plenty of water, used well and quickly by the department, kept the entire building and contents from be- ing totally destroyed.
 The loss will reach $2250, which is fully covered by insurance.

Invitations have been issued, but as great many may not reach their destination in time all lovers and encouragers of art and education in Birmingham are urged to be present at the reception this afternoon and evening.
 It is very gratifying to be able to state thai Mrs. Algernon W. Nelson Is steadily improving, and her family and physicians are much encouraged about her condition. The Entre Nous club were entertained in unique and charming way last Tuesday evening by Miss Kathleen Hooper. It was called an "observation party,'' and a number of articles were placed upon table and all the guests were permitted to scan them for few minutes, then were re-. quested to write down as many articles as they could remember having observed on the table. The one remembering the great est number received the prize. Miss May Hooper won the young ladies' prize, and MT. Jim Johns the prize for young gentle afterwards, and theyoung folks greatly en- joyed the evening. The following young people were present: Miss Mary Cleary and Mir. Ernest Redd, Miss Barbour and MT. Theo Koeing, Miss Patti Ruffner and MT. Owen Phelan, Miss Elise Ball and MT. Walter Fowlkes, Miss May Hooper and MT. E. T. Wilcox, Miss Kathleen Hooper and MT. Jim Johns, Messrs. Sale Phelan and J. D. Phelan.
 The progressive love party given by Miss Maliza Moore on Monday evening was a charming success. The house was elab- orately decorated in potted plants, cut flowers and red hearts. The progressive love- making continued about two hours, and the latter part of the evening was en- joyed in various ways. Fortunes were told for all the young ladies and gentlemen by means of the hearts which each guest drew. Mir. John London bore off the prize for telling "the old, old story' bet ter than any other young gentlemap, and Miss Eloise Johnston received the prize for having heard "the sweetest story ever toldn in the most enchanting way. After the pretty game delicious refreshments were enjoyed.
 These merry Glove makers'' were the guests of Miss Maliza Moore: Misses Rim nie L. Head, Daisy Lewis, Mamie Moore, Mary Cleary, Eloise Johnston, Ada John ston, Mary Leigh Broadnax, Maude Ter. rell and Nellie Blackwood, and Messrs. George Ward, John Patton, Guy Cooper, John London, Kelly Parsons. Robin Webb, Everard Meade, Arthur Ko.nig, Tom Harris, Theodore Koenig, Mason and Harris.

SOUTHERN IRON.

The British did not reap much consola- tion from Congressman Wilson's speech, for he predicted that the United States under the present tariff would compete with England in the markets of the world. The British are awaking to the fact that this prediction will come true. In the iron markets the South is crowding out the English iron. The English iron masters could not believe that Southern iron could be made as low as in England, and they sent an expert over here to investigate. He visited the Birmingham district and wrote back that iron was being made here for $6 ton and iron pipes for SIS ton. This is just as low as Great Britain can make iron. Of course the South cannot hope to ship iron to England at a profit and compete with English furnaces at home. This would be expecting too much. True, some Southern iron has been shipped to Eng land, but it was charcoal iron and was in small lots, and was intended for special purposes. But the South can compete with England in Canada, in Cuba, in South America and other markets. This is all the South asks.

Now each plant must stand on its merits. The most favor- ably located furnaces will begin to expand and increase their output and crowd out the furnaces laboring under the disadvan- tage of an upfavorable location. In this respect the Birmingham district has every advantage. Its natural resources and con- veniences are unexcelled.

JEFFERsoNIAN Democrats and Populists are as much interested in cheaper and bet- ter living, lower taxation, individual and National prosperity as any other of our people. These are already and will con- tinue to be the results of Democratic con- trol of the government. Why should they then hesitate to vote for Democratic candi- dates for Congress? Is it not their duty as patriotic citizens to do so? Let them consider the question as a business matter and without prejudice.

THAT the AGE HERALD predicts "Mo- bile will become the chief export city for Alabama products'' is not In conflict with the geographical fact that Alabama has no other export city than Mobile. The trou- ble is Alabama is not doing her exporting through her own seaport, but building up the other ports. The railroad influences to which the AGE HERALD yesterday re- ferred was the long-haul idea. No news paper on earth has higher appreciation of the developing influences of railroads than the AGE HERALD. They have done much for Alabama, and are doing more every day,

UNIVERSITY ATHLETIC NOTES.


 UNIVERSITY, Oct. 16.-fSpecial Corres spondence. l-The university opened this year with brighter prospects for literary and military success than it has for several years. Lieut.. W. O. Elliott, the new com mandant, has made several beneficial changes, and it is easy to see that he will make the military department great suc- cess. The university has been needing for several years such a commandant as 1t has found in Lieutenant Elliott.
 The boys are taking considerable inter- est in athletics, both in the gymnasium and on the gridiron.
 Although we have very few of our old football players with us this year, We hope to find good material among the new men. Our boys are training to meet the boys of the University of Mississippi October 27. As the Mississippians have never been de- feated we expect to have some rare sport. Tennis also has strong hold on our boys, and they hope to be able to compete successfully with the best tennis players of Alabama before the collegiate year closes.

THE NEW TARIFF MAINTAINS THE
 PARITY OF OUR MONEY.

In his recent speech at Akron, O., Sena- tor Sherman said:
 eff the new tariff and tax law will, as Dur Democratic friends claim, furnish revenue to support the government, there will be no difficulty in preserving the pari- y of eur money"
 Now, no ore, not even the rankest high protectionist. has ever. denied or doubted that one of the blessings of the new Demo- cratic tariff law is that it will furnish enough revenue to support the government and protect our National honor. Therefore, MT. Sherman, confessedly an able finan- rier and business man, being judge of the operation of the new Democratic tariff law, says it will establish and maintain the parity lof our money, gold and silver, independent Ipf silver legislation. Thus do its enemies, the Republicans, proclaim It's merits, and live to this Democratic measure still Aeater credit. But the maintenance of tbN parity between gold and silver is not whit is wanted by Mr. Sherman and his party, of which Truman H. Aldrich Is the leader in this district. for in the same Ipeech MT. Sherman said: ssI pledge you will do all can to repeal it fthe new tariff lawI ss soon as possible.''
 Out of the mouths of their own wit nesses are Aldrich and his party con- demned.
