GEORGE ELIOT.
Her Religion and Her Morals and Lessons
 From Her life.

Her Religion and Her Morals and Lessons
 From Her Life.
 NJ M Mangasarian, in his lec- turo on George Eliot's Religion and Morals, says:
 George Eliot achieved true i'm mortality-the victory over oblivion through the power of genius and l goodness. She not only won the ad- miration of the generation in which she lived, but she also conquered the future George Eliot has more read CTS today in England and America than when she lived in the flesh and was seen walking about London. Tho only thing that is eternally ! young is genius. If she were living now, few would hesitate to pronounce her the greatest woman writer of the day George Eliot is Q moral artist, an ethical teacher, in A sense in which Sir Walter Scott or Dick. ems was not. She brings to her task an uncompromising earnestness; ev- cry page of her writings is saturated with m almost unrelaxing serious ness To demonstrate the eternal laws of conduct which inclose and environ mans existence is the bur den of her books
 The two marriages of George El- iot have elicited much criticism, friendly and unfriendly. l have heard it said George Eliot herself re- gretted in after years the influence her example exerted upon others There was in this aot of hers an ap- parent disrespect and indifference to existing institutions. The question of the relation of the sexes Is steadi- ly moving to the front In Europe and America there are writers who think it is the crucial question of tho day. do not believe George Eliot ever violated the spirit of her high teaching on the subject of marriage.
 George Eliot Is n philosopher novelist, teaching the meaning of life through tho channels of fiction. There is in her, as there was in Thomas Carlyle. Q lurking sadness, a melancholia While reading her pages have said to myself. She has dipped her pen in tears. The story of her religious evolution proves that to know the truth was her only desire, to cling to error was her only fear. At an early age she found her self slipping from the dogmatic Christianity of the day, but if she stopped going to church she never ceased to be religious. The first condition of human goodness Is something to love, the second some thing to reverence Can there be a better definition of ethical religion? Religion to her meant something else besides doctrines and notions; it meant the free and diligent exer- tion of the intellect the hunger and the thirst after righteousness. This breach with the creed of her youth never created bitterness in her soul, for she says, It is possible. thank heaven. to have very erroneous the ories and very sublime feelings. No other writer has uttered moro eloquently the supremacy of the deed over the creed. She is the mod ern stoio.

short. Rnt sn,rited.

A short, but spirited sale, took
 place at the north door of the court house today. The property sold belonged to the estate of H. C. Casey, deceased, and the sale took place under order of the probate court, by C. T. Lewis. administrator. w. J. Mulyenon officiated as auc- tioneer. The first piece offered was lot in Ash Fork, located on the main street, just in the rear of c. T. Lewis new building, occupied by Andrews & Van Alen. the lot being 25xl25 feet. It had been appraised at S375, and the first bid for it was from w. E. Hazeltine for that amount. Another gentleman, not known, raised this Sl0, and MT. Hazeltine went him Sl0 better, aud bids finally dropped to a $500 raise, and kept alternating from one to the other, until it was finally knocked down to Mir. Hazeltine for $475. A half of lot, near the creek, on North Granite street, Prescott. was knocked down to Augustus Foutz for Sl00, only one bid being offered for it. As it was appraised much in excess of this, it is doubtful if the probate court will confirm this sale

WATER INJUNCTION.
Action Commenced in the District Court 10 Prevent the Transfer
 of the Water Works,
An Injunction Granted in Accord ance With the Complaint, Pend-1
 ing a Trial of the Case.

The litigation between the citi- zens and Che mayor and city coun- cil and the Prescott Water Com pany is now on. A complaint was filed with the clerk of the district court yesterday, and a temporary restraining order issued to prevent the transfer of the water works as contemplated by Ordinance No. 75, until the entire question can be heard and determined.
 The complaint is signed by J. l. Gardner and twelve other citizens, and is quite voluminouS, but the gist of 1t is contained in the fifth count, which ayers and alleges that said ordinance, as we'll as the contract therein attempted to be made with said John Lawler, his associates and theIr heirs, etc, are imperative, against public policy and void, be- cause:
 FIRST, under the terms of said ordinance and the conditions therein expressed, the said contract, under the pretense of obtaining water for the City Of Prescott, is in truth and in fact, a donation of said water works plant.
 SECOND, said ordinance is ultra wires and void, because it attempts to confer on Lawler and associates an exclusive and special privilege, immunity and franchise and mono poly for a term of fifty years, and the charter under which the City of Prescott is organized, contains no grant of power or authority to the mayor and common council to grant any exclusive power or monopoly of any kind.
 THIRD, said ordinance is ultra wires and void because it attempts to exempt the property granted un- der said lease, as we'll as such prop erty as Lawler and associates may acquire. from the payment of city taxes for the term of fifty years.
 FOURTH, said ordinance is inopera- tive and void in that it attempts to release said Lawler and associates from any damage which may result from their negligence in operating said water works plant.
 FIFTH, it is ultra wires and void because it attempts to impose pen alties upon consumers of water for non-fulfllment Of a private contract.
 SIXTH, said ordinance is inopera- tive and void because 1t attempts to require no guaranty from the said proposed lessees that they will develop a proper water supply and it attempts to impose no penalties or forfeitures upon said proposed lessees, should they fail or refuse to do and perform the things therein required of them.
 Johnston X Sloan are attorneys for the plaintiffs in the action.

4 FATAL AFFRAY.
A Quarrel in Jerome Will Probably
 Result in the Death of Two Men.
Charles Ward, the Mining Man, Shot and Jakey Brown Hit With
 LOa ded Cane.

Charles Ward, the we'll known mining man of this section was shot at Jerome, about two o'clock this morning, and probably fatally wounded, by "iakey" Brown, an en- gineer formerly in the employ of the $. F., F. X P. Railway.
 After being shot. Ward struck Brown with loaded ca9e, crushing in hisskull, aud producing wound when will also probably prove fatal.
 Parties who came in from Jerome state that both men had been drink ing during the night and had been quarrellng, and they state further taat an old feud had existed between them, Ward accusing Brown of being ''scab' in connection with the rail road strike last summer.
 Tn y finally met nn the street in front of the Grand View hotel, and after indulging In some very loud and excited talk, two pistol shots were heard by tho occupants of the
 otel One of the bullets entered Wards left side, just above the hip, aud passed clear through his body, perforating his intestines, it is thought, and producing a wound which Is thought will prove fatal.
 Ward was taken to che house of a friend aud all that was possible was done 10 alleviate his sufferiugs, while Brown was carried to Mrs, Boyd's lodging house and cared for.
 When the JoURNAL-MNER's in- for,nant left this morning, both parties were reported unconscious, aul the doctor stated that there was no hope for the recovery of either of them.
 Dr. w. B. Cotton, in response to a telegram, went out on this morn ings train to assist in the treatment of Ward.
 Another Account.
 JEROME, May lS.- Special to the MINER -Aualtercation oc cured at three o'clock this morning between Charles Ward. a mining man, and Jake Brown, an engineer of the United Verde < Pacific Rail road. They had been quarrel ing and drinking, coming to blows Who struck first is not known. Ward struck Browns right arm with a cane, and it is said that Brown blacked Wards right eye with his fist. They were parted and the trouble was thought to be ended. An hour later they met, and while Ward used cane upon Brown with terrific effect, Brown fired two shots from a 3S-csliber pistol. Having no more loads in his gun, it IS said that he threw the gun at Ward, striking him in the right eye. Que snOt p'erced Wards clothes on the right side and the other struck him about the tenth rib, ranging downward, probably into his stomach or liver. Wards condition Is quite serious, and he is tco weak for an operation, and is kept under the influence of opiates. The doctors say that the wound will probably prove fatal. Brown has a very bad scalp wound on the left temple. aud is very weas. as he suffered great loss of blood No statements have been made by either party, both being too badly hurt.

pretty busy today taking care of things
left by kind people," said Mrs. l. E.
Thorpe The suffering is terrible sew
ersl extreme cases having been reported

last winter"
There is a great deal of want in Park
dale. Many families south of Sixth
street in that portion of the town are al
most in a freezing, if not starving con-
dition, The family from Jewell
county of which mention was made in
the JOURNAL aud another one on Law
renee street are still in pitiable condi-
ton. They have had no fires, and yes
terday the Lawrence street mans baby
and two children in the Jewell county
family took sick with Group. Both men
are willing to work. Oneworked all day
in the rain Wednesday and the next day
in the snow for forty cents. Yesterday
when he put on his wet clothes he could
not speak above a whisper. His wife is
sick with lung trouble, besides his two
children sick with Group.
It was thought that coal would be Sc.
cured from Poor Commissioner Hale to
day. Mrs. Thorpe could not find him

SAYS SANTA FE Is IN 1T
Rather Remarkable Letter Concerning
Judge Martins Decision.

Rather Remarkable Letter Concerning
Judge Martins Decision.
A Kansas City man who signs himself
Alexander Findlay and announces him
self as a financial agent is sending a cir
cular letter broadcast among Kansas
lawyers soliciting subscriptions to fund
recently decided by the Kansas supreme
court to the United States supreme
court.
Mr.. Findlay represents that Mr.. Bev-
erly, who lives in Topeka is without
means to carry the case to the higher
court, and he asks the lawyers interested
in sustaining Judge Martins decision to
contribute to a fnnd to take the case up
by giving employment to Kansas City
lawyer.
The most astounding part of Mr. Find
lays letter is what he says of those in
terested in having the case decided ac-
cording to Judge Horizons views He
says:
'The loan companies have organized
and subscribed largely and it is under
stood that the Santa Fe has subscribed
and retained Geo. r. Peck to appear in
the supreme court"
It would be interesting to know how
much of this is true. Topeka lawyers
say the Santa Fe has no interest in the
mortgage redemption cases. This may
be true, but the officers of the Union
Trust company who are members of the
new Santa Fe company are largely inter-
ested in the decision as they have been
loaning money all over Kansas for sew
eral years
