SCHRADER, THE HEALER
Blesses the Bandsna of the
 Willisms News Man.

The healer, Shrsder, the high cock a forum Of the nineteenth century swindlers, passed through Williams s few days ago. He stepped from the cars to the platform and wss en,husi- astically received by the edItor Of the News, who particularly ssked him to heal his empty pocket book. 'You are a newspaper msnG" queried the healer. "You bet; own the greatest Arizona weekly, ouly $3 year, in sd- vance: want to subscribe" sad he editor ss @ ray of hope illuminated his countenance. The healer looked at the scribe compassionstely and said:
 "My enthusiastic friend of the quill, I do not deal in things mundane. l sm on earth to heal the sick through faith, but if you wish 70 slleviste the suffering caused hy a want of funds, go into the healing business. It pays"
 The scribe accepted the kindly ad- vice and requested the healer to bless his hsndkerchie'. The piece of calico or canvass, was brought forth and schrader attempted to stamp his name on the cloth but the dirt was so thick the stamp could not penetrate. The healer next laid bis hand affection stely on the scribe's arm and said:
 My poor fellow; you have an az gravs:ed case of heart disease, but must be goirg, fer the train leaves. God be with you, my son." Turning his eyes reveren,ially upwards, the healer disappeared in the car.

AN ANCIENT CUSTOM
Preserved and the Candidates
 Please the Crowd.

The frst hardship resulting from the law passed by the last legislature Tor the purification of Arizona politics was experienced in Wilcox last Sat- utday night after lha Republican can. ei' which nominated Joe Neunhuber r for constable, The Wilcox News say s large crowd had congrcgsted in Geo. Rsum's saloon in anticipation of Joe's following the time-honored custom Of starting of his campaign by setting 'em up to the house. But an exceed ingly wet blanket was hrowp over the bottled-up enthusiasm of the crowd by the announcement that such pro cedure Was contrary to the new law.
 Luckily, however, F. E. Walker, the Democratic candidate for the same position was presentand some thought ful individual made a motion that the opposing candidates play a game of seven up, the loser to acknowledge himself the poorest player, and, inci- dentslly, trest every person present. The motion was unanimously carried with great enthusiasm, and one of Arizona's most sacred traditions pre- served.

The Pioneer Mtner.

We have hom, and pension for old sOldiers, but whcn i- the , 'mg for "'d miaers9 We surely owe them g deb, of gratitude, ard m their oll age they should have honor and comfort, for they are the true soldiers of progress. Let me tell to you the story
 Of the miner old and gray, With his head now bowed and hosry For ne pioneered the way. He has sluiced the slluvisl gulche< He has pierced tue mounisins old |, Has thrown wide the door to progress In his cesseless search for gold. He has filled the darkest forests,
 Has let in the light of dsy; He bss sown that we miel.t t reap.
 He has opened wide the way. In his cabin on the hill side
 Up the gorse's may way, Calmly now he smokes his brirew wood, Once his life was wild and gsy. Backward now his tho'ts are turning To dear comrades gone before, And his lonely heart is yesrning
 For the friends he knows no more. Never on his knee has clsmbered The sweet children of his dream, Meyer by his side has wandered
 Afond wife, his hearts own queen. For his fate, stern and relentless.
 Swept him onward day by day; Great his heart, bis soul uudaunted, He has opened wide the way. AL pathetic. sad, sad story
 Of the miner old and grey, Empty hands and hear, his portion, He who pioneered the way.

THE FOUR BRAS.
Debt Paying Qualities of the
 White Metal.

The following is copied from the Los Angeles Record. It is worthy of consideration of all who are in doubt as to the debt-payIng power of silver. Cut this out and pssie it in your hat:
 There have been four debt paying eras m our rational debt since 1866. The first era was fIom 1866 to 1873, and we . .iI |, the "greenback era" be- cause 'he currency was greenbacks aud there was but little gold in circu- lsiion.
 "The second, from 1873 to 1879. is the era Tn which the hints were closed against silver coinage.
 "The third from 1879, when we were coining silver, to 1891, when we ceased coining i. un Ter the Sherm an act, and this we call the "trs "f filver."
 The fourth was from July, 1891, to November, lS95, after silver coinage had ceased nuI we were on e gold oas's, and this We call the "gold era" T866 Pubic De'.t sa.77azs6 Iz, Isoo-IS73. Gre n5tek Ira deeease. ss3s,753. Iso I873-ls7o. Mints c>ose4 10 silver.

 From the above the most Ordinary reader will see that that during the tive years after silver WAS demonetized we piled up slI6,ls3,239 on our debt and the natural inference is that if we ever intend tO pay our national debt silver must bear its part to do this i, must have equal rights with gold at our minus.

BRILLIANT ORGAN RECITAL.
Given BY Prof. Pennington in the Elu'
Park Church.

In his fourth organ concert last even-
ing at Elm Park church. j. Alfred
Pennington. again proved his mastery
of his Instruments. The audience was
large and appreciative. Mr. Penning-
tons programme evinced that he was
not bound to any one school or style
since the composers represented no less
than seven different nationalities. The
opening number was a sonata by Mer-
KEEL. who was one Of the greatest COM
posers for the organ. The first and
last movements left an impression Of
majestic, and at times impassioned
grandeur. and the calm and serenely
beautiful adaigo was all the more
beautiful by way of contrast.
The Swedish Wedding March," with
its strongly accented rhythms was IA
charming suggestion of Swedish music
and Swedish country life. The PAS
torale" bv Guilmant. was, as its name
indicates. in IA peaceful pastoral Vein
and suggested browsing herds and
shepherds pipes. The "Slumber Song"
by Hanser. was a delicious little NOR
ceau and carried one back to child:
hoods days. The "GaVotte" by Martin,
good old Padre Martini. who lived more
than Il century and IL half ago. was as
quaint and comical as If it represented
to nineteenth century eyes sturdy
peasant yOeman dancing with "hys
ladye ON the Srrene." The "Marche
Pontiiicale" of l.-mmens, is one Of the
best works of that style and the
Grand Chorus in ID" of Guilmant. was
the most difficult work Of the evening
and suggested in its bri!liancy and
marked rhythm a glitterlng pageant Of
AZ Ned warriors.
Ar. Pennington was assisted by Miss
Carolyn Wolf. Of the Elm Park quar-
tetle. who has been in Scranton but q
few months. Miss Wolf has fresh
