 Captain Nat Is, however, the transcend ent mechanical genius of the concern. He designs all the vessels turned out from tho works. The largest of these Is tho torpedo boat Cushing, and the most celebrated of his creations arc the Stllctto, GlOriana, Vigilant, Defender and the catamaran Ia rantella, which in New York harbor in 1878 covered moro than 21 miles in an hour, a performance which still stands un- rivaled. Captain Nat is not blind, and for this reason is the best known of this unique and really remarkable family, which also gave to steamboats tho coil boiler now so generally used in yachts.

 It was my good fortune to have an in- teresting reminiscent conversation with Colonel R. E. J. Miles of Cincinnati not long before he was stricken by the illness that resulted in his death The topics we dwelt upon chiefly were the operatic enter prises wherein juvenile talent was utilized by this aStute manager some 16 years ago, and we skinned over much of the current history of the precocious little principals who so charmingly distinguished them- selves under his direction.
 The ''Pinafore" craze gave birth to three lilliputian organizations. There was a fourth one in California, but it was short lived and purely local in its field To the same "Pinaforc,' too do I attribute my formal advent in theatricals, but to Eli Perkins, the educated lecturer, must the responsibility of that event be indirectly charged Perkins and I were room mates during the early seventies ill a ''swell' boarding house on Fifth avenue, New York, where Redforn now holds forth.

Benefits or Cycling.

Of all the means of training the respiration, pr. Fortescue Fox thinks cycling is the best. When a person first takes to cycling, he is troubled with shortness of breath. his heart beats uncomfortably and his legs get tired, but after some training these discomforts all disappear. Why should not people liable to attacks of asthma also train their respiration by such a kind of exer- else course, on condition of the heart and lungs being in perfect health? Cycling exercise, first of all, increases the depth of breathing, and that without fatigue, as the respiratory movements are auto matic; at the same time 1t will ac- custom the rider instinctively to take in at each respiration the vol ume of air required to aerate the blood and to eliminate q fixed pro- portion of carbonic acid, leaving in the circulation the precise amount compatible with health.

He Formerly Lived fin Prescott.

Jacob Ofenheimer, the Oakland tough, who was recently sentenced to states prison for fifty years, for burglary and robbery resided in Prescott for some time, leaving here only about a year ago. His father had a lease on the bridge barber shop. The young man was con sldered pretty tough when here but seems to have grown tougher since leaving. He would at times "strike" his father for money and if it was refused he would berate him round ly. The old father seemed proud of his son and took the abuse as an evidence of smartness as he would afterwards say ''Jakey is a smart boy, he will make a great man some time The old gentleman's hopes of greatness may be realized when the son gets out of the penitentiary. Among Young Offenheimer's most intimate acquaintances, when here, was Otto Miller, the printer.

The Courier contains a lengthy article this morning abusing the editor of the JoURNAL-MINER for an alleged attack on Otto Miller. The attack existed only in the imagina- tion of the editor of our contem- parary. When the fact of Oppen- heimer's former residence here was called to the attention of the JoUR- NAL-MNER man, the party giving the information, for the purpose of identifying him, said: He used to run with Otto Miller" As a means of identifying him to the public. solely, the fact of such acquaintance was referred to. Nothing deroga- tory to Miller's character was said. or even lntimated, and, in fact. noth- ing of a criminal character was charged against Oppenheimer dur ing his residence here Miller claims that for six months prior to Oppen- heimer's departure from Prescott he was not on speaking terms with him. The Courier, of late. has shown a very rabid disposition in its vicious snarls at this paper, prob ably owing to dyspetic condition of its editor, as certainly no cause has been given it.

Dr. Nickers returned this morning from Phenix with the above papers. which he will forward to Hon. \. O. Murphy, at Chicago. to be sub mitted to capitalists for their con sideratIOn. While the estimates for construction on a portion of the road are rather high, the building of hotel at the hot springs. to- gether with the extensive mines which would be tributary to the road, would insure an ample revenue to make the investment remunera- tive.

Republican National Leas e.

In its report of the meeting of the executive committee of the Re publican National League, the Chi cago Record says:
 Almost at the opening, while Sec retary Bowling, in the absence of General E. A. McAlpin, the chair man, was presiding, Delegate George Christ, of Arizona, sprung a sensa- tion by proposing that the com mittee headquarters be removed from Chicago to Washington, D. C. He said the managers of Willsrd's Hotel, in that city, offered a suite of rooms, rent free. Congressman H. C. Brewster, delegate from New York, seconded the resolution, and it looked for a moment as though the national capital would carry of the prize.
 It was the patriotic spirit of Dele gate Albert Campbell, of Efhngham, H., that saved the day. He inter- jected an offer on behalf of Chicago to not only furnish free quarters, but Sl,GO0 cash in addition. The money was the simplest part of the proposition and he asked thirty days time in which to secure the quarters. In view of this turn of affairs, the matter of future location was passed until the regular October session.
 Meanwhile a committee consist ing of President McAlpin, Secretary Bowling and MT. Campbell will consider offers and the delegates from Denver and Milwaukee will have au opportunity to place bids from theIr respective towns before this body.
 The afternoon session was marked by energetic speeches and definite offers of assistance. Secretary Dow ling, on behalf of the republicans of Minnesota, presented the league a check for Sl,O00 to aid in the or ganizatiOn work. Promises of simi- lar assistance were volunteered by the delegates from varlous other states, and then Delegate Christ, of Arizona, secured the floor.
 "We have plenty of republican enthusiasm out there" he declared but there is no money with which to organize a territorial league in such way that it can do telling work
 "How much do you needl' in- quired General McAlpin.
 Three hundred dollars would do."
 Il will donate $500 out of my own pocket. The republicans want Ari- zona's votes, and a league represent ation there will accomplish it for us.
 The reports from the various state leagues were received. The outlook was declared promising, particularly in Iowa, Minnesota, Connecticut and New York. General McAlpin urged all the delegates present to take up the league work with renewed ener- gy on their return home. A com mittee on league work was appointed consisting of John Goodnow, of Minnesota; P. F. Powers, of Michi- gan; George Christ, of Arizona. and the president and secretary, whose duties it shall be map out the plan of operation for the various state and territorial organizations.
