Country Life Versus City Life.

For some time my mind has been
occupied with the subject of the cap
tion, especially as related to young
people. Did you ever notice, my
young friends, that in most of the So
called reunions and at banquets almost
every speaker leads you to infer from
his remarks that he was brought up
on farm, and then goes off in rhap-
sodies about what a splendid time he
used to have in winter when farm
work was not pressing. And some
honest ones among them will, while
hcaving a sigh, say; II wish I had
never left the farm !" At the sugges-
tion that the way was open, and that
he could go back if he wanted to, the
answer comes: 1T is too late in life
for me to commence anew in the coun-
try"
One often meets with young men
who are anxious "to 80 on the road, }"
that is to say they would like to be
commercial drummers. I am afraid
they think that the life Of such po
sition is continual frolic What
sad mistake The commercial trav
eler has to sell goods; if he fails he is
superseded. Travel by night get up
out of your berth after midnight, per-
haps go to livery stable, wait until a
horse is fed and then dash off into
darkness and travel on all sorts Of
roads dozen miles or less, reach your
destination just after breakfast is
over, wait for your meal and gulp it
down, quality good, bad or Indifferent
and then seek customer or two only
to find that another drummer has just
taken their orders. Now for the next
place, and on that little journey you
meet your man who had scooped the
trade and he laughs at you. Do you
think the situation pleasant? That
is not romancing, but plain, every
day fact.
But you are still inclined to think
it is pleasant life in the city, even
if you have to obey others bidding.
You say "There are Y. NJ. G. As
thank God there are-and they will
help an honest, right-minded young
ster like me. 1t would be dreadful if
one could not pass these trials and
ordeals unscathed. Others have done
SO, many of them, and why not ?"
I think the chances are against you.
But before you take the decided
step, let me tell you Of some Of the
good things you intend to forsake.
You will miss most likely the counsel
of mother, and when you are per-
picked and have a headache you will
miss her cool hands which have so
often cured it and brought the welcome
sleep.
You will miss also the bright and
pleasant rally and call Of sister older
| than yourself, who has often made you
laugh and dispelled the blues when
you were only tired in body and glum
in mind and behavior because Of the
hard lot of farmer. You will miss
all the nice little parties gotten up in
the neighborhood and the pleasant
ride with young lady in buggy on
seat just large enough for two.
But, you say, I would get position
in store in the city. All right. If
you have a prospect, capital and
friends, so that you can look forward
to being the owner of store it is
worth while to learn to be merchant.
It is at best calling not only what
one may learn in business college !;
but an almost universal knowledge OF
| things so varied that lifelong ex-
perience will hardly give man a

The Sparrow's Lesson.

Some folks is alters grumblin' no matter
what they do,
An they keep themselves an others In q
neverending stew;
There's nothin' seems to please 'em an
you'll often hear 'em say
II they had this world to manage 'twould
be run diff'ren way.
When the days are bright and sunny then
they alters pray fer rain;
When the water tumbles earthward then
they want the sun again;
When the snow is softly fallin' an the
wintry breezea blow,
Then they spend their time in swearin'
an a cussin' ov the snow.
There's a lesson for such people thet thet
little British pest,
Called the sparrow, is a-teachin' though
he hasn't got no nest,
Fer he just keeps on a chatterin' an he
does the best he can
Fer 10 make au uOuebt llFIu OIL you
can't say that o. man.
No matter what the weather, you can see
him in the street,
Jest pickin' up his livin' In the rain an
SNOW an sleet.
An he's plumper AN partridge an he's
rounder 'an ball,
Fer he knows ther's one In heayen thapu
heed sparrer's fall.
He amt bigger ner minute, but he kim
der seems to say
Though cts rainin' now, I reckon thet
the sun'll shine some day.,
An when the snowfakes fallin' hide
from sight most everything,
He keeps up ceaseless chatter while
he's lookin' fer the spring.
Let us emerlate the sparrers an take
pattern by their ways.
Laugh when e'er storm o'ertakes us,
an then pray fer better days.
Let's be cheerful an contented, never
grumblin' ct our lot,
Then In our hearts, I reckon, ne ken find

 LcpisIattye LaConfcs
From a staa Correspondent ]

PHOENIX, Feb. 27.-Probably the most important feature of last weeks sessions of the legislature was the over whelming sentiment against the county division bills. The legislators are ap. parently of the opinion that no more counties are needed in Arizona at pres ent. The Navajo county bill only re- ceived six affirmative votes, and the Papagp county bill was made special order for Tuesday of this week.
 The council showed its attitude to- ward labor unions by knocking out an act to prevent discrimination by em- ployers and others against workingmen who belong to union organizations. When it came to ihe consideration of the house bill puniSbing drunkenness in territorial officials. there was roar of opposition, and of course 1t shared the fate of the labor bill The members of the council do not believe in unjust discrimination.
 The female saloon warbler will prob ably he relegated to oblivion, for tEe assembly has passed bill preventing women from frcqucnting saloons or be- ing employed in plices where intoxi- eating liquors are sold. The governor has signed the bill repeating the mer- chants license tax.
 The age of consent has been raised from II to IS years of age. Thursday the legislature ndjourped until Tuesday of this week.
 s many bills are being noticed in the legislature that gPaud rush and scramble at the latter end of the ses- sion geenls almost inevitable. It can only be aye,ted by doing business sys- temaiically and putting iD full time every day.
 Strangely paradoxical as it may seem. ibe legislatnYs who were the must pronounced advocates of the anti-cigarette bili are themselves ad- dicled t" the Ise of the alleged coffin nails. Yet their mania is mild in form and as all habiiual smokers ad wise youths to shun the habit, SD they feel that it is a good thing for the rising generation to prohibit the sale pf cigarettes in the territory.

THE action of the Cleveland adminis- trition in placing the latest bond issue is commendable Grover is of great dimensions, physically. which of course includes big heartedness. He has shown the latter quality in the deal. While the government coul1 have sc- cured premium of IS per cent, such Il sale would not have benefited J. Pier pont Morgan, August Belmont and a number of other cronies of the buzzard statesman. They are hard up no doubt, and in need of a. few millions to run their Fifth Avenue institutions aud swell outfits on the sea-shore, so the tleshy minded man of destiny took ad- vantage of the opportunity and helped them out--at the governments expense.

CALIFORNIA is taking good care of her native sons. She has society called the Native Sons, two state pris- ons, and several insane asylums for their especial benefit. If an individual born within the magic circle is ineligi- ble to membership in the society by reason of moral perversion or mental deficiency, he can find plenty of the home product with which to assoclate in either of the latter institutions. The only redeeming feature of the Native Sons is that they are such an inferior human production that the species must soon become extinct.

WIPED IN THE BUD.
Bold Attempt to steal Charles CanaIrs
 South African Diamonds.

ooush hAhA~oH iA@A-OHus'
 Two young men of Flagstaff. society
 buds whose names would not look well
 in print In this connection, had n thrillingly narrow escape the other af-
 ternoon. Some time ago Electrician Charles Canall strung a wire from the
 top of d Railroad avenue store to Teleg- rapher Meyers sanctum. for the nc. commodation ofone ofthe young menin question, whose fad Is telegrapby.
 The wire became crossed in love or something on the roof of the Flagstaff Commercial Company building, and the young man repaired with com panion 10 see what the matter was. He was trying to force an entrance to the roof when one of the lady roomers. hearinga fumbling at n door, requested his business. The FOOT fello w became confused, mutual misunderstandnys followed and he made as graceful an exit to the street as was possible under the circumstances, joining his partner in crime on the stairway.
 The lady only required one glance at the latter to size him up as suspi- cous character. She gt once conclud- ed that the rascals had dark designs on Canall's South African diamond, which was captured by him in its in- fancy, after desperate hand toyhand encounter with an old Zulu. and which Is always kept in plush casket in his boudoir, and she hurried to tho sheriiI's office and communicated her susni- ei0ns to Deputy R. w. Bell. Shortly after her departure the young man who was suspected of attempting the heavy end of the burglary came in. He was pale and very much flustered, and wanted to know if there was a warrant out for his arrest. The off ger could scarcely repress his merri- mfpt, but assuming his gravest air he informed his caller that he had indeed gotten himself into serious trouble. The young fellow was so agitated at the idea that bis spotless character was soon to be blasted at one fell swipe that the precipitation formed like gum boils upon his fair young brow, and he nervously paced the floor until those who were iR the joke ended his misery by telling him that matters had been explained. The two young men are till passing the cigars. |

SECRETARY CARLISLE Els method of co,

SECRETARY CARLIsLE's s method of con- duciing the financial affairs of the gov crnmcnt has tendency to further the idea that the Kentucky brand of "honah" is a little bit shy in weight. That silver tongued and silver haired old reprobate, Brcckinridge, put the native article considerably below par, Carlisle still further appreciated it and if Kentucky can manage to produce d few more like them, honor will become tradition within her borders.
