A Sharp Trick.

An amusing thing occurred while l was at Yokohama, says a recently re- turned traveller. An official notice of the government had been published ipq the Japanese newspapers saying that all Chiness who desired to depart must do so by d ee1'tain date, CT else remain until the war was over. Thereupon, An Shing, big clothing dealer of 10 Water street, called all the Chinese to- gether and they all agreed to go. They got their goods to the dock, and finally aboard steamer, with themselves, and the steamer pulled out. At the last minute it was found that the wealthy merchant had held his goods and slipped back to the city. He at once resumed business, having got rid of al opposition merchants, and is now roll ing in riches because of the great busi ness he is doing.

THE ANTI-CIGARETTE bill appears to have a smooth sea in the house. The only expressed objection to the substi- ute offered yesterday is that It's too early operation will result in serious loss to dealers who may be caught with large supplies of the noxious merchan- disc on hand. The cigarette must cer- tainly go; the propelling power is the perhaps intensified belief that to- bacco in this form is more harmful than in any other. The strongest argu ment against 1t though is what has been aptly described, "its inferna cheapness.

THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS has de- vised a plan to partially relieve the un- employed by furnishing them work on the county roads at 50 cents day and board. The relief is not so thorough as the unemployed could wish, but it will prevent hunger and make begging mex c1sable.

CAUGHT IN THE ACT.

If 8 culprit was ever caught Tn the' act that culprit was the Hon. Perry Wildman, an able representative of Maricopa county. The time was yes terday afternoon, and the occasion was the debate in the whole committee over the woman's suffrage bill. Mir. Wild man is gentleman of sound and pro- gressive ideas. but he has never devel- oped ostentatlous activity in favor of equal suffrage On the contrary, he IS conscientiously opposed to it. He IS man who has the courage of his conyic- tions generally. so that when the meas ure was before the committee MT. Wildman alone of all the opponents of the measure dared face the battery of feminine eyes, with which friends of the bill had sought to intimidate the legislators. The only woman in the world whom MT. Wildman dared not face was not there.
 In the midst of phillipic against the bill the door of the lobby wa: pushed open and there was commotion which might have warned the speaker. The gentlemen wh' stood with him in opposition t the demand for equal rights turned sick at heart for they foresaw tn downfall of their champion. The face of Messrs. Hunt, Moore, Barnes Wright and other extremists amon the members and those of Col Herring and the hundred of lad spectators lit with additional hope for it was plain that the onl gun of the enemy would soon b silenced, spiked.

HERE" AND "THERE."

HERE" AND THERE"
 During the last eighteen months ru- mors purporting to be authentic and proceeding from Washington have been reaching Arizona alternately. One IS, "Geronimo and the Ch1ricahuas are coming :" the other is Hughes is go- ing" Thus have the people been kept between the devil and the deep sea, or, as one addicted to profanity would ex- press the situation, in hades and water raised to high temperature.
 There has been only one view ln the territory about "Geronlmo coming" The concensus of opinion is unanl- mously against it. The intermittent announcement that Hughes is going" has produced varied effect. The ene- mics of Hughes" have been elated to degree hardly warranted by the proba- bility that the exit would really take place, but each rumor signifying that his authority was brief was re- ceived as enthusiastically as if hope had not been deferred a hundred times.
 The Geronimo rumors were as readily
 accepted.
 The gentleman who wanted to see
 Hughes go" perhaps really wanted,
 on the homeopathic principle of sim1lls
 similibus curantur, to see "Geronlmo
 come." They reasoned no doubt that
 the equilibrium of the territory could
 not be preserved if both these bug bears
 should occupy it at the same time
 Therefore they stood ready to welcome
 the great war chief not that they hated
 him less, but the governor more.
 How these rumo1s affected the gov . ernor and his friends we do not know If they ever were torn by anxiety the, eA eAconcealed it as hefoically as the Spartan y boy held the stolen fox which wa 'f ghawing it's way into his vitals. l + may be presumed though that with tn s succession of rumors and the lapse c r time they naturally grew callous an l. indifferent.

Lamor g. is in a position to know somethin S. about the old chiefs movements. Tn r. dispatch was in reply to one sent of Governor Hughes inquiring about h of partner in fictitious atfiiction.
 of A natural curiosity may hay 1e prompted the governor to send tn le telegram, but we think he acted inco ot siderately. Now that all doubt h.
 been removed concerning the coming le Geronimo, his own burden will as heavier. He has succeeded in dislod a ing the weight from the other end ed the Hteeter- board" and instead of long ho enjoying the delightful alienation to lofty hope while Geronimo was touch1 ed ground, he has let himself down witt he dull thud to remain there until t ,es rumorist can find a subject to repla es, Geronimo.

Weak Nerves

Indicate as surely as any physical
symptom shows anything, that the or
gans and tissues of the body are not
satisfied with their nourishment.
They draw their sustenance from
the blood, and if the blood is thin, i'm
pure or insufficient, they are in a state
Of revolt. Their complaints are made
to the brain, the king Of the body,
through the nervous system, and the
result Of the general dissatisfaction is
what we call Nervousness.
This is a concise, reasonable expla-
nation Of the whole matter.
The cure for Nervousness, then, is
simple. Purify and enrich your blood
by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, and the
nerves, tissues and organs will have
the healthfM nourishment they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness will then
give way to strength and health.
That this is not theory but fact is
proven by the voluntary statements of
thousands cured by Hoods Sarsapa-
Iilla. Read the next column.

is smaller than it has been for two
years, there being but seventy-one per-

At this time, there are more discharges

again, as the courts begin to grind at

The ~convicts at the pen are busy,

Thistle commissioners

Governo OF Allin has appointed Ex-
Senator Lyman r. Casey of jamestown
and VIM. a. Rowe Of Monango, Dickey
county, as members of the executive re-
lief board, to act with himself in the
suppression, so far as possible, of the
Russian thistle, under the law passed at
the last session Of the legislature. Both
of these gentlemen are we'll informed in
the matter Of Russian thistle, and the ap.
pointments are made with a view to the
energy and efficiency of the appointees
to aid in stamping out the pest. The
Executive relief board, thus constituted,
is provided for in Senate Bill 1875. 1t is
their duty, by the provisions of the law,
to acquire all necessary and practical in
formation, and to determine the general
method and seasons for. the destruction
of Russian thistle and French weed,
prior to June l, next. They are directed
by the law to have their determinations
and directions printed, with such rules
and regulations as they see fit, and are
to forward at least twenty copies to the
auditor Of each county in the state, as
we'll as to each newspaper. They may
also determine upon special methods,
whenever they deem wise, and may at
any time change or modify their rules.
Their determinations are to have the
full force of law; they are to have con-
troll and direction of all operations con-
templated for the determination of the
thistle, and they have sole control of the
expenditure of money, to be used for
this purpose.
They have also power to order the work
of destruction to begin in any county in
the state, and if the work is not
promptly begun, they may cause it to
be begun themselves, and have the cost
paid by the county.
In short, the board in question, are
the custodians of the $4,000 appropri-
alton, and are the general supervisors
of the work of destroying the thistle in

Will Not Close.

1t looks now as though the state edu.
cational institutions for which appropria-
tions had to be cut off because OF the
condition of state finances, would be
kept open apart of the time, for the
next two years at least. A total Of
$1,000 has been subscribed in Valley
City towards running the normal school
after the appropriation is exhausted. The
farmers of the surrounding country will
materially add to this sum-, and many
friends of education throughout the
state have sent assurances of financial
aid. Major Murphy in passing through
the city a day or two ago authorized the
committee to draw on him for $1OO for
the Valley City normal. The subscribers
to the maintenance fund have incopor-
ated. This is merely for a better legal
status for the collection of moneys and
their payment to the state treasurer.
That this school will not close is now a
settled fact. The 100 students in attend
ance not only declare that they will re.
turn in September, but many others are
already arranging to enter then. In tile
case OF the University the fund has
reached $1,000, and the committee ex-
poets $4,000 more before stopping work
in Grand Forks. The students during
vacation will work up a student fund,
and outside communities in the north
ern part of the state are already re-
spending to the call for aid. The COM
mittee is confident of success and have
already received numerous contributions
from outside counties. Senator Lamb
has raised $1,000 in Nelson county, and
other counties are responding.
Mayville also is rustllng, and, it is
said, has raised quite a substantial fund
for the normal school there.

About Money.
The earliest record Of a real estate deal
is in the Old Testament, where it is said
that Abraham bought the field of
Ephron for four hundred shekels of sill
yer. Coined money was not in use, for we
read that Abraham weighed unto Ephron
the price. Silver and gold in those days
were IN the form of ingots or bricks, and
the amount needed was cut off and
weighed. Since that day man has made
a considerable advance, and now has
gold and silver coins of various names,
as: Dimes, quarters, dollars, eagles,
double eagles, marks, kreutzer, horins,
ducats, Argentines, francs, Bolivianos,
