Rich gold strikes in all parts. o

Rich gold strikes in all parts of
Arizona are reported with such
rapidity that to attract more than
passing attention it must be almost
phenomenal. In this part Of the
Territory scarcely a day passes bur
some prospector comes to our

some rich find he and his partner
have made, always bringing with
him gold bearing rock that would
have caused a stampede toward his
discovery two years ago. And the

Lincoln ora Silver.

The following language used by
President Lincoln shortly before
his assassination indicates plainly
that that great statesman thor-
oughly understood that silver
should always be used as II money
metal on parity with gold:
"Mr. Co'fax: I went you to
take message from me to the
miners whom you visit. | have
very large ideas of the mineral
wealth of our nation. ] believe it
is practically inexhanstib'e. 1t
abounds all over the western
country, from the Rocky noun
'tains to the Pacific, and its de-.
velopment has scarcely commenced.
During the war when we were
adding a couple of million OF dol
lars every day to our national
debt, I did not care about en-
couraging the increase in the
volume of our precious metals; we
we had the country to save first.
But now that the rebellion is
overthrowp, and We know pretty
nearly the amount of our national
debt, the more gold and silver we
mine, we mske the payment OF
that debt so much the easier.
Now I am going to encourage that
in every possible way. We shall
have hundreds of thousands of dis
banded soldiers, and many have
fear ed that their return home in
such great numbers. might paralyze
industry by furnishing suddenly
greater supply Of labor than there
will be demand for. am going
to try to attract them to the hid
den wealth of our mountain ranges,
where there is room enough for all.
Immigration, which even the war
has not stopped, will land upon our
shores hundreds of thousands more
from overcrowded Europe. / i'm
tend to point them TO the gold and
silver that wait for them in the
west. Tell the miners for me that
| shall promote their interests to
the best OF my ability, because
their prosperity is the prosperity of
the nation. and we shall prove, in
a few years, that we are indeed
the treasury of the world"

Government Positions.
BY EDWARD W. BOX.

There are government positions which
hold out excellent possibilities in the way
Of developing a young man 5 qualities.
Is 4 government position ON general prin-
ciples good thing for young man who
is desirous of future /? But these are
rare For the most part, and on general
principles | would not advise any young
man to enter the employ of the govern
ment, that is, if he has any ambition. A
government position holds out attraction
to the average young man because he feels
1t Is safe, that is, so far as the payment of
his salary is concerned Then. too. he is
apt to believe that government salaries are
somewhat higher than the salaries attached
to civil pursuits. But, to my mind, he
buys these sure elements at a very dear
cost to himself, The average government
clerkship is very poor affair Not only
Is ii poor in itself but, in ninety cases out
Of hundred, it means pure clerical rou-
tine. 1t has about it peculiar sitting
monotony and restraint which are apt to
quench the fire of ambition. Promotion
Is impossible upon the same lines as in a
business house. The chances for develop
ment are meagre. While there are ex-
ceptions to the general rule, government
service is not the best thing for any young
fellow He viii be wiser if he enters into
the more fearless freedom of civil pursuits,
and leaves the average government position
alone. In the first, he can be what he
likes; in the latter, it is doubtful.

There was recently in Paris a Russian,
by name Dourof, who is supposed to know
more about the nature Of rats than any
other man living. He has made bust
ness Of training them 10 do queer things,
and at the same time has carefully studied
their habits and ways
\ reporter who visited him and his two
hundred and thirty free and ordinary un-
Gagged rats found him in the ae, of exhibit
ing his 'rat railroad 1t consisted Of a
narrow track laid in a circle upon which
were three passenger ears large enough Ia
hold FIVE or six rats apiece, baggage ear.
and pretty little locomotive.
Close 10 the track was 4 small painted
wooden house, which served as station.
There were switches and other railroad
paraphenalIa.
Presently cage was brought in which
contained considerable number Of rats.
Dourof clapped his hands together three
times, and all the rats came tumbline ogt
Of the cage and swarming about the little
station.
He clapped his hands again and half a
dozen black and sleek rats-very respect
able. corpulent fellows-climbed into the
first ear. which was a first class coach.
Once more Dourof clapped, and half a
dozen black and white rats, quite regularly
marked, got into the second class ear,
while an indiscriminately mark ed and rather
disreputable looking company scrambled
into the last car. which was third class.
4 black rat, who did duty as the sta
tion master promenaded up and down ON
the platform of the little house, while tive
or three small rats dragged some little
trunks into the baggage ear These were
the baggage smashers.
\ whistle was heard, the engineer rat
climbed upon the locomotive and a switch
man pushed the switch Again the whis-
tie sounded and the train moved off around
the track.
The training of the rats to the perform
ance of this feat was, NJ. Dourof declared,
extremely easy, except in the case OF the
bagoagemen whose education had cost
him GOOD deal of trouble Each party
of passengers had been placed-one
party at time-at their breakfasting hom
opposite the car to which they belonged,
in which some pieces of soaked bread had
already been placed. At his signal they
had been liberated. and had quickly found
the bread.
Little by little they had been trained
by this way to enter the proper car. The
locomotive was operated with clock work,
and the rats had nothing to do with it.

\ girl who deliberately marries without
understanding the art Of cooking is com
mittins a-well the law of the land does
not call it a crime. but in the unwritten law
Of the home it certainly does constitute Il
crime Especially is this true of those in
modest circumstances. who cannot employ
sufficient cooks. Burnt fingers. sour bread.
seorched roasts, leathery steaks, wlshy-
washy coffee and disordered stomaehs are
not conducive to the happiness that one
imagines the honeymoon should be filled
with. There are 80 many reasons, logical
and philosophical, why cooking should be
included in the accomplishments of young
girls that il is useless to enumerate them.
Good cooking Is the basis Of happiness
health and success in the home life. One
may thoroughly understand art, music,
architecture, science and philosophy, be
familiar with astronomy, mythology, the
mysteries of evolution, politics and htera-
ture, yet if the chemistry of a loaf OF
bread has been neglected the education is
sadly incomplete, 50 far as the house
mother is concerned

Why People Like Dogs.
From the Boston Transcript.

And why do people keep such lots of
dogs themselves and 20 in such numbers
to see other people dogs Because the
dog Is at once the sincerest fatterer and
the most successful cheerer that the human
race ever had A good dog always gives
Us the feeling that we men and women are
a sort of god No other animal does any
thing Of the kind. The eat treats us as an
inferior. and the horse will treat us as a
dear friend, not a divinity. The dog,
moreover, imparts something of his peculiar
gaiety TO US in way that is irresistible.
He mingles his suggestions of gaiety with
his hattery, for he not only leaves his din
ner untasted to walk with us but the mere
fact that we are apparently giving ourselves
the pleasure Of walk raises him into such
delirium of delight that the sight of it
puts all our dumps and blues to such re-
pruaeh that we shake them off in very
shame And when We don't walk, but
sit moodily at home. the doc eurls up
lovingly at our feet, and looks up now and
then into our eyes and .glides into our
darker musings with mild and healing
sympathy. Yes. there is solid reason
for the londness of men for dogs, and it
will never come To an end until either men
or dogs become very different beings from
what they are now

Raising the Pastors Salary.

The Cairera,ija thinks that change
is needed in the methods Of raising the sal
aries of pastors. The people do not seem
to realize, as they should that an increase
Of income is sometime matter Of impera-
tive necessity ON the part Of the pastor
As a general thing, the minister is too
reticent in regard to his necessities. He
does not talk familiarly enough with his
people in regard 10 the cost of living and
the necessity Of an increased income. He
seeks a place elsewhere, otentimes, at an
advanced salary rather than mention these
facts To his people, when the additional
Income could be realized at home by
plain statement Of the facts in the case.

Turkeys and weather Prediction

Says an old Pennsylvania farmer Il
always know when there is 10 be wind
storm by Watching the turkeys and chick
ems 20 to roost each night in calm
weather the fowls always roost on their
poles with their heads alternating each way
that j., one faces east, the next west, and
- on; but when there is going to be
high wind they always roost with their
heads toward the direction from which il
Is coming. There are reasons for these
different ways of roosting take it. When
there Is no wind to guard against they can
see other dangers more readily if they are
headed in both directions, but when wind
Is to arise they face Z because they can
hold their positions better But the part
can understand he concluded Is
how the critters know that the wind Is
going TO rise when We mortalS lack all IN
