CANAL TALK.
The Tempe Canal as the
 Subject.
It's Abandonment a Feature Under Discussion-What Re-
 porter Learned.
From the Tempe News

From the lem pe NEWS
 An argument between two of our prominent ranchers on the subject of abandoning the Tempe canal, dam and headgates and receiving its water through some other canal, led Views" reporter to do some Investigating on the su bject, with the following result:
 The average annual cost of one share of water in the Tempe canal for the past five years and eight months for all expenses of every kind, including san. iero fees, lawyer fees, engineers, law suits, and court expenses is S74. P. This sum includes all sanjero fees, but in reality, only one third of such fees should be charged to the Tempe canal proper, and the remaining two-thirds should go to the branches or laterals.
 It may also be added in this connec- tion that the above figures include most of the costs of the great water suit, known as suit No. 708. The actual cost of maintaining the canal, head gates and dam during the period above mentioned has been $255 per share per annum.
 Now, if the Tempe water was deliv- cred or carried by some other canal in such way as to entirely dispense with the Tempe dam and headgate, the only difference in the expense to the share- holder would be in their exemption from the payment of the $25 57 re- quired to keep up the headgates and dam; the balance of the above mention ed annual cost per share being the necessary expense that must exist un- der any circumstances.
 The advantage to the Tempe canal stockholder under the present system is illustrated by the following example Suppose the company abandoned it's dam and headgstes and pays some canal $50 per share per annum for delivering it's water, the retult would be an increased expense from $74.29 plus $50 minus 25.57 which equals $98.70, or the annual amount the share holder would have to pay.

TO IMPROVE YOUR LOOKS.
Devices for Making the Complexion Bet ter and Adding to Physical Beauty.

Devices for Making the Complexion Bet
 ter and Adding to Physical Beauty.
 Vanity furnishes the inspiration for many of the inventions of the patent office. One of these is mask of very thin rubber, designed to be worn on the face at night. It causes profuse precipitation, which washes impurities out of the skin and makes the complex ion clearer. Sun tan is quickly re- moved, so it is claimed.
 Another device for producing dim pies, according to the Cincinnati Com mercial Gazette, is woman's idea. It is wire mask, likewise to put on when going to bed. By an arrangement of screws, pencils of wood, very blunt, are made to press upon the cheeks and chin at the points where dimples are desired. Uncomfortable? Why, of course. But, as. the French say, it is worth while to suffer for beauty's sake.

THE ITALIAN PEOPLE.

A View of Their Present Condition and
 Prospects for the Future.
 What are the prospects of the people? That depends in the present case large ly upon the people themselves. A peo- pie that are not united will never bear taxation patiently, because disunited people cannot be commercially pros porous, and, therefore, cannot afford to DIV the taxes, The difference between north and south Italy, or between P,ea- mont and Sicily, are not, indeed, like those between Ireland and England, largely religious, but they are certain ly radical, and the gulf between the easygoing, but passionate, children of the two Sicilies and the hardy noun taineer and stalwart cultivator of the Piedmont plains is almost as wide as the chasm between the Teuton and the Celt. Victor Emanuel's favorite unifer of Italy was the army, but, says the Fortnightly Review, it has turned in the hands of his successor into a disin- tegrator. It was all very well to move the army up and down Italy when the army was a symbol of common ibera- ton from which so much was expected; but now the tyrants are gone there is no longer halo of romance about the army, nothing but army bills. The tyrant now is the tax collector.
 Undoubtedly the people have griev- ance. The taxes have been not only cruelty but unjustly exacted. The col lector has entered Sicilian cottages, backed by the police, and, seeing the pot-a-feu smoking, argued that those who could afford to eat could afford to pay supplement- or excess tax, and if it turned out there was no money, the officers of the law have been known to seize the dinner and throw it out the window, under the noses of the poor peasant and his hungry family There was no redress for the subjects of Hum bert any more than for those of Bomba when his police, under the brutal Manisalco at Palermo, dragged the wives and daughters of the Palermitans out of bed, stole their jewelry and ar rested their husbands and brothers on fictitious charges. People will always rise against misgovernment and oppres sion, whether the government calls it self republican, monarchial or any | other.

A PlE-EATING HORSE.

He Has Been Known to Refuse Oats for
 Pie and Is Fat and Sleek.
 Leonard Jacobs, a pie peddler of An sonia, Conn.,, has one of the most re- markable horses in Connecticut Other tobacco, chew gum or drink beer, but Jacobs horse will eat pie, says local exchange. The horse is twenty-three years old. Jacobs pies come from New Haven, packed in cases, and in trans portation some of them generally get broken and cannot be sold. One day Jacobs threw a broken pie on the ground near the horses head The ami nal smelled of it, touched 1t with his tongue, lapped it up and ate it with relish. Then Jacobs began to feed pies to the horse. The horse soon got to like them, and would even refuse oats when pie was to be had. The habit has grown on him, until now, when Jacobs says ''pie" to him, the horse will turn his head and wink expectantly.
 He has decided preference for mince pie, and the more raisins and entrants and cider there are the better he is pleased. Apple pie is great favorite with him. Most bakers put grated nut meg into the apple pie, and this doesn't seem to agree with the equine taste. Pumpkin pie he likes and cranberry tarts are an especial delight. Peach, apricot, berry and prune pies are ac- ceptable, but unless the prunes are stoned he will not touch prune pie after the first bite. The horse is fat, sleek, and youthful in his movements, and Jacobs expects to keep him on the pie cart until he is long past the age when most horses are turned out to grass for the rest of their days or are carted to the horse cemetery by the side of the nurky waters of the Naugatuck river. | THE use of naphtha residues as fuel is every year increasing in Russia.

FIGURES ON THE EYE.

Something to Back the Theory that
Murderers Might BE So Traced.
The legendary belief that the eye Of
murdered man might retain a per-
manent image of his destroyer has just
received something like scientific con-
firmation. According to the Revue des
Questiones Scientifques, Drs. Deneffe
and Clayes, Of Client University, re-
Gently had their attention directed by a
medical student to the curious appear
ance presented by the eyes of a woman
under treatment in the hospital. The
student declared that he had found GER
tain figures distinctly inscribed on the
surface of both eyes. DR.. Deneffe was
incredulous, and suggested that If
any such marks existed they must
merely be the chance result of some In
jury and that the resemblance to fig
ures was probably imaginary. Next
day, however, he examined the patient
himself, and was astonished to find that
the left iris bore the number 10" and
the right AS" these figures being
traced with caligraphic perfection.
Imagination and hallucination are both
out of the question, as DR.. Clayes and
other observers were brought in to YER
ify the phenomenon. The eyes, more
over, were photographed, and on the
enlarged proof the numbers 40" and
as" stand out with unmistakable
clearness Nor is this ALL Although
the origin of these particular impress
sions cannot be ascertained, it has been
proved that their acquisition may be
hereditary. The woman's daughter has
the same popularity in her eyes, but
with much less degree Of regularity
and distinctiveness. The girls right
eye is found to bear feeble reproduc-
ton of the number 40" while in the
left iris the figures take the place of the
mothers as" Here, then, is a pleas
ing puzzle for the psychologists. 1t
would be strange, at this time of day,
to discover that the eye under certain
conditions, could really perform the
functions of the camera.

The Rev. Mr.. Cleveland was born in
Windham (now Willimantic), Conn
April 7. 1882. and is, then. some years
older than his brother, Grover. who was
born i'm 1887. There were nine child zen.
OF these two brothers were in the war
of the rebellion, and, sing1larly enough.
after escaping all the perils Of battle,
both persisted i'm the burning of the
steamer Missouri, while on their way
to the Bermudas, where they were to
engage in business. There were five sis
ters, all of whom are living, and all
married, save Rose Elizabeth. who is
known to the whole country as the Lady
of the White House during President
Cleveland's first term.
