GRANTS FIRST SERVICE IN THE
 WAR.

Upon him the adjutant-general also put the critical eye, says E Edwards, in McCIare's Magazine for June-when Grant applied to him, and seemed, like all the others, to be disposed to measure the unassuming man by his clothes rather than by his record and his intel ligence. He, too, said: "Well, I don't know that there is anything you can do to help us. We are pretty well organiz- ed. But" be added, mold on; you must know how to rule blanks for the making out of such reports as we make up. You certainly learned how to do that when you were i'd the army"
 .Oh, yes," replied Captain Grant. 'I know how those blanks should be ruled"
 Well, you see," continued the adiut- ant-geDeral, Eve are short of these blanks. hedepsrtmenta at Washington cannot toward us the printed blanks as fast as we need, the demand is so great. I think I'll set you to work ruling blanks. You may come around tomor- row."
 Captain Grant came, according to appointment, and paper, ink, and pen with ruler were given to him. But he was not permitted to have desk in the room where most of the clerks of tEe adiatant-general worked. That was room well-carpeted, room with hand sorne desks and other convenient and comfortable furniture. Just outside of it was 8 little ante-roon, where the floor was bare, and the only furniture was a plain table and hard -bottomed chair.

AMONG the finest exhibits in the Wo-

 International exposition, will be one showing the work of aboriginal women

 all forns of this work, from the relics of
 prehistoric times down to the york of the I0dian woman of today. The col lection of this exhibit, 8 large part of
 which is already at the Smithsonian, IS in charge of Professor Otls T. Mason, who had charge of the exhibit of wo- mans work at Chicago, and is we'll known as the author of "Woman's Work in Savagery, recently published. This display, though brough to Atlanta upon the special request of the women's board. will be exhibited in the United States government building. The ex- hioit will embrace all of the best feat ures of the exhibit made at Chicago, and many others. for which there was not space or opportunity there. This feature will be one of peculiar interest, and will be enhanced by the fact that it stands alone as an exhibit of it's chsrac- ter, and could net be duplicated a. any expense.

MEXICAN RUINS,

Last winter, says the Denver Repub- llcan, the Field museum of Chicago sent out an expedition to explore the ruins of Yucatan and other parts of Mexico. Prof W. Ii. Holmes, who is curator of anthropology io the museum, accom- panied the expedition, and short tine ago he returned. But If one may judge by what he said after be reached home h. did not do very much. The ruins in several different localities were visited, but nearly all of them had been visited before by Americans CT Europeans, and if was impracticable to learn anything new about them in 8 stay of few weeks.
 The problem presented by the ruins of Mexico has passed the stage which makes it a matter Of interest to travellers or ordinary explorers, and that is about all that the members of this expedition proved themselves to be. The ruins were photographed and measured years ago. and in this connection it would be well for Americans and Europeans to abandon the idea, if they entertain it at all. that the archaeologists of Mexico are indifferent to the importance of this problem. They are fully awake to the value and they are also well qualified to study it.
 The problem presented is that of the solution of the inscriptions with which the ruins gre covered. It seems to be impracticable to reach a solution by any thirg at the command of Europeans or American arcbaeologists. There is no key to the alphabet, and men like those who, as a rule, visit Palestine and other such places in Mexico are ignorant of the languages spoken in the vicinity. It is this ignorance of the languages of the Mexican Indians which renders ordinary investigations of these ruins but little better than time and labor thrown away.
 The way to work at this problem is to take up one's residence among the na- lives of the country surrounding Palen- que, learn the language which those DSOpiS SDOaA GIA 6SOCllol1 oll hhoS AS ic possible in regard to their traditions and folk lore. This should be accompanied by 8 thorough acquaintance with the methods of picture writing and the use of hieroglyphics in general.
 It would be at lest blind lead, for there might be nothing of value learned. But 1t seems to be the only chance, more especially if tbe Inscriptions on the ruins are the record of a language and not mere sign or picture writing. To do all this man would have to bury himself for years in the wiids of the southern part of Mexicc, or at least in what to en American would seem to be wilder ness. But the reward of success would be great. Possibly it would be great enough to justify the attempt.

A Leaf Fluttered by the Wind

Is not more tremulous than nerves de~ bihtated or overstrained. Nights of un- rest followed by days of discomfort are the com mon lot of the nervous. This class of invalids, too, is usually trou bled with indigestion and imperfect assimils. tion. Indeed, to the inability of the system to perform these twin functions may be largely attributed all nervous symptoms. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is sovereign remedy for nervousness Dyspepsis and non-assimilstion of the food are remedied by it, as are also ma- larisl and kidney complaints, bilious ness, constipation and rheumatism. Con. frmed nervousness cannot be permsn- ently remedied by opistes or sedatives, winch are highly preiudicisl to health, and soon fail of effect save in increasing doses.

TO BE OR NOT TO BE.

The Star few days ago contained on item to the effect that W. A. Clark, owner of the United Verde Copper mines at Jerome, A. T., was being boom- ed by northern Arizona papers for Unit ed States senator from Arizona.
 A friend of Mir. Clark's informs the CITIZEN that MT. Clark has always liked the climate of ArIzona and spends Q major portion of his time here, and con- templates taking up hls permanent resi- dence in Arizona. He is said to have even now in consideration proposition to invest very large amount of money near Tucson, but so far as we can learn MT. Clark is no wise candidate for the position his name is mentioned with, his immense business requiring hls constant attention. Should he, however, be pre- vailed upon to accept the senetorship from ArIzona, when we become state, the CITIZEN while, of course, greatly preferring to see 8 silver republican in the place, is not blind to his ability and worth if democrat has to be chosen. The sound judgment, energy and per severance which be displayed in the transaction of his private business will be very effective for Arizona's good in the senate chamber.
 The following is from the Butte Miner of the 22d and defines his position on the silver question. MT. Clark will be in Tucson in short time looking after his investments here. The Miner is owned by MT. Clark.
 During the past month the Miner has left very little room for doubt as to its position on the silver question, but inas- much as 6 dodging contemporary has seen fit to make inquiry, we will say:
 1st. The Miner, which has been 8 con- slstent and uncompromising democratic newspaper for years, will support DO party which in it's national convention of '96 refuses to demand the free coin age of silver at the ratio of 16 to or fails to nominate free coinage man for the presidency.
 2d. The Miner confidently expects that She democratic party will espouse the ause of silver squsrely and fearless ly in '96, but if it does not, it should and will be defeated.
