SALE OF THE BONDS.

The territorial bonds; bids for which were opened few days ago, have been awarded to w, J. Hayes & O., Cleve- land, O., brokers, at @ premium of 3 ]. Mention has already been made of the flattering character of the bids for the territorial securlties, but too frequent mention can not be made of any incl dent so indicative of Arizona's rising credit.
 The figure at which these bonds were sold is a subject, not only of territorial pride, but is also matter of substantial satisfaction. The rate of interest, were they sold st par, would be a pleasing reduction from the rate borne by the old de6t which has been refunded. The premium still further reduces the rate so that it really becomes a trifing affair. We remember that just before the first installment of the funding bonds was sold, while negotiations were pending with Eastern brokers, some doubt was expressed as to whether or not they could be sold at par, At that time the stringency had not commenced, Capital was less cowardiy then than it is now thought it is rapidly regain ing courage, so that the present satis- factory advance at which the securities have been cold can not be set down to the return of good times so much as to an increasing and abid- ing faith in Arizona.-Star.

JUDGE FLEURY, of Prescott is dead. The following report from Prescott tells some of what might be said of him:
 PRESCOTT, Arizona, Sept. 2.-Judge Henry w Fleury, who came to Arizona with the first set of Territorial officers, in 1863, died here today of Bright's disease. Judge Fleury was an historical as well as a peculiar character, having served as Secre- tary of the Territory, also as acting Governor during the early history of Arizona. Since first coming here hc hes never been outside If the Territory, and turing just twenty seven years hs had slept out one night away from tae house occupIel by him from his first arrival which was also occupied in the early days by the Governor and other Ter gitorial officials About year ago he was called to au adjacent mining camp on official business as Justice of the Peace, being absent one night. This was the only time in over quarter ofa century that he was absent for even day from Prescott. The quaint old log house in which he lived so long and iu ghiah he died vas an object of in oerast to all visitors to. Prescott, as in ad- dition to serving as gabernatOrial mansion and offices for Territorial officials during the early period of Arizona history, it also served as sort of fort and safe place of retreat during the days when the Apaches held sway over this section Judge Fleury came here from Brooklyn, N. Y, where his relatives still reside. He was over 80 years old.

It would be If you could just pack this

farmer entered the Cyclone office
the other day. He had a yellow covered
book under his arm, and on his sun
dried face there reposed a smile-and
such smile! We never saw but one
like it before, and that was years ago.
There used to be a fellow out in Cali
folnia who wrote verses, and finally he
deluded himself into the bhef that he
was Shakespeare. He used to smile
pityingly upon the ignorant and nm
talented multitude, who looked askance
at him as he STROBE up and down his
cell, reciting verses from Kilums' Sar-
saparlla almanac. The smile of the
farmer was very much akin to that of
the old California idiot. and we were
not at all surprised when we found that
the little volume which he carried about
with him was a copy OF COINS Financial
School" After he had been seated he
said:
MIR. Editor, I've come round to take
yer paper fer er year, but before l do it

money question. 1 'spose yer preach
Their divine doctrine of free coinage of
silver?'

"Whut!" he exclaimed, you don't

He put the So back in his pocket and
grasped the little yellow book more tight

him and he would be left once more in
darkness as to the great question of the
day
We drew our chair up to him, and In a
confidential whisper we said:
mo, we don't believe in silver. We
have better scheme than that" We
drew our chair up still closer and winked
slyly at him from the corner of our
eye. then proceeded: You don't own a
silver mine; neither do I, and under the
circumstances free coinage of silver
would not benefit us any, but" and

To Remove Particles From Eyes.

The oval electrode which has been
devised for the removal of fparticles of
iron or steel from the eye is said to
prove of peculiar practical value-the
use of magnet directly after an in
jury, where chip of metal has pene-
trated the interior of the eye, always
giving far more favorable results as to
vision than when used later, SO that
many cases are on record where large
particles have been removed from the
tissues of the eye by the magnet,
with a hardly appreciable impairment
of the vision. 1t is recommended
that in large injuries of the eye, where
the presence of a piece of iron or
steel within the eye is suspected, the
physician should not hesitate to insert
magnet, as inflammation and loss of
the eye will ensue if the foreign sub
stance be allowed to remain; if, how
ever, the injury shows but very
small opening through the eyeball, the
intruding substance should first be To-
Gated with the oyhthalmoscope, then
the wound through the eyeball should
be carefully enlarged and the magnet
inserted as close to the particle as
possible. Philadelphia Record.

As we grow old our thoughts take closer

We sail no more to shores where fancy

We hold nearer converse with our
dead
Who seem to dwell in spheres not far nor
strange;
We do not seek for constant scenes OF
change.
Our minds with homely, kindly truths are
fed,
With simple joys our souls are comforted.
Nor do we let opinions men estrange.
We cling with hearts moro tender to Old
friends
Are less disturbed by funeral or feast;
We take the blessings God in goodness
sends
With no misgivings. Be His praise In

Most happy one who on pure Faith de-
pends;
They cling to life the most who know It
least.
