Lively as a Cricket.

Although in the first instance as sluggish as a tortoise, the kidneys be come as lively as q cricket when a healthful impulse is given to them with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, pro- moter of activity in these organs which ccunteracts Q tendency to their leth- argy and disease. Inaction of the kidneys, it should be remembered, is the first stage of these dangerous renal maladies against which the resources of medical science are too often exhausted in vain. Peril is forestalled by the Bitters, which averts Bright's disease, diabetes, dropsy, gravel and the trou- bles arising from Q weak bladder. Equally efficacious is it in checking and eradicating malarial, bilious and nerv- ous ailments, dyspepsia, constipation and rheumatism. Appetite and sleep arc improved and convalesence hast ened by its beneficent action. Either when health is slightly or seriously i'm paired, the value of this restorative and preventive medicine is speedily made manifest.

Kaffir Corn.

A grea. deal of praise is now going the rounds of the press about Kafiir corn, says Rural Life. The plant re- sembles Indian corn in stalk and ap- pearance, except that the grain grows in clusters at the top, similar to cane. The yield is not equal to Indian corn either in fodder or grain, nor has it as high feeding value in grain, or perhaps in either. The only point of superior ity that can be claimed is that it is better drotith register than corn. I saw it growing on the Kansas experi- ment station grounds last July, and I am satisfied that this claim is justified. Beyond this, l do not consider it has any merit worth considering, and the average crop of corn in the corn belt States will have considerable more feed ing value than Kaflir corn promises. For the extreme arid regions, where corn is an uncertain crop, Kafiir corn doubtless has an undisputed value.

PRESCOTT.
An Interesting Sketch of Its
 Early History,

All lntereSIlnR SReIcn Ol US
 Early History. The ott-Journal-M Miner of De- cember 31, 1895, is devoted to sketch of Prescott's early history, and con tains some interesting "reminiscences.
 The first organized body of mining men to set foot in that section was the Walker party from California, May ', 1863. They operated principally on Lynx creek, where they rocked out thousands of dollars of the yellow metal. The ground was very rich, which may be inferred from the state ment that George Coulter got s350 from one pan of dirt. October 26 of the same year the Lount party arrived from San Francisco. In November, 1863, Ed Peck, Lew Alters and party arrived from Santa Fe. In three years they washed out, on Granite creek, S75,0OO. Among the earliest families to settle there were the Stevens, who live under the same roof today which sheltered them thirty-one years ago.
 The first Indian trouble occurred at Antelope Hill in '63, and was brought on by California miners who accused the Indians of stealing their burros, and, having killed twenty peaceable Indians, they found their burros grazing in the vicinity. For ten years thereafter hades popped on account of this unjust act.
 In '65 at least 5000 placer miners were camped in various gulches around Prescott.
 In '64 the first organization of the civil authorities was perfected to hunt new mining ground and also Indians. It was headed by King s. Woolsey and was made up of ninety-two men. They went to the Verde and Tonto Basin, finding no mines but plenty of Indians.
 sNigger Ben," he who has left an inheritance for this and generations to come to 'rustle'' for in the shape of mountain of gold, said to be covered up somewhere near Wickenburg, died in Prescott in '65.
 Theo Boggs is among the pioneers who staked out home in '63 on Big Bup. He is still there.
 The first regular meeting of miners was called for and held at Goodwin City, a mile south of Prescott, on December 27, 1863, to make laws to suit everybody, and particularly the Walker, Lount and Groom people.
 The first family to locate in Prescott was that of Mir. and Mrs. Joseph Ehle, who arrived early in '6i.
 The first boarding house for miners was presided over by ''Virgin Mary" who built log house on Goose flat and christened it "Old Fort Misery" ''Board S25 per week in advance," hung from the latch string.
 The Arizona Miner (now the Journal Miner first heralded the glad tidings in June, 1864. The paper was too poor to afford home but it ''got there just the same' from between the two walls of logs, one on the north and one on the south side of the office, which was

located on what is now occupied by J. l.. Fishers store. The old Ramage hand press, on which was printed Ari- zona's first and best" newspaper, may be seen to-day in the al-Miner office in good working order and none the worse off for its labor in the line of magnificent congregations as it enlightened the outside world and helped to make the country what it is today. This piece of crude machin- cry has life that dates back to 1S47.
 The Journal-Miner gives two illus trations of Prescott, one as it appeared January 1, 1865. when the population was 50; the other as it is today, pros porous city of 4500 souls.

AN ERA OF ExPOSITIONS.

Canada is to have an international exposition at Quebec next year. It will be opened about the middle of May.
 San Jose, Cal, is planning to hold a carnival of roses next May, and already s7,0OO has been contributed toward pay ing the expenses.
 Hungary will celebrate it's millen- nium as a state by whole years com rnemoration of the events of interest in it's long history.
 A question like the Sunday closing of the Chicago worlds fair is troubling Berlin. The commission in charge of the exhibition there next year propose to close the grounds at nightfall, and the Berlincrs are holding mass meet ings to protest against this.
 Berlin proposes to have an immense "Cairo Street" at her exhibition next year. Six times as much space will be given to it as was given at the Chicago exhibition, and besides reproductions of Egyptian scenery and monuments there will be harem hidden among the shops.

ELECTRIC SPARKS.

It is said that about 200 railway car riages are now lighted by electricity in Sweden. and in Denmark the same system is also in use on the first-class trains.
 Gasoline engines are now, it is said, being much used in Mexico in conjunc- tion with small dynamos for the gen eration of electric currents for domestic lighting and power plants.
 Electric lighting is to be applied to art in Brussels. On the Anspach memo rial St. Michael is represented on horse back staying the dragon. The sword will be made to blaze like sword of fire, lights will be put in the saints eyes and in the insides of the dragon.
 Detroit abandoned entirely the use of horse cars a week or so since, and the last of the antiquated relics of a closing era made a farewell trip over some of the city lines now operated by cleo. tricity amid noisy and derisive demon stration.

Chamberlain Cough Remedy is famous for its cures of bad colds. It opens the secretions, relieves the lungs and aids nature in restoring the sys- tenn to healthy condition. If freely used as soon as the cold has been contracted, and before it has become settled in the system, it greatly lessens the severity of the attack and has often cured in single day what would have been severe cold.

ARMY AFFAIRS,
Order Restricting Recruiting, as the
 Regiments Are Nearly Full.

Regiments Are Neafiy Fui. A Washington dispatch to the Globe Democrat says: An order has been issued by the war department restrict ing recruiting until further orders to the enlistment of especially desired recruits and former soldiers who fulfill requirements. The reason for this order is that the army is now closely approaching its maximum strength. At least twenty of the regiments are now full. Many officers nre urging that in view of the Venezuela dispute it is advisable not only to fill all the regi- ments to the maximum number au- thorized, but also to increase the num- Der of regiments. They suggest that the artillery battalion should be doubled and also that companies be added to the infantry regiments sufficient to give twenty-five regiments of three battal- ions, or 300 infantry companies III all.
 General Miles is giving great deal of attention to the army these days. He is determined that what troops the United States has shall be trained up to the highest standard in case of a war with great Britain breaking ouf. A soldier writing ofGeneral Miles recent visit to Fort McPherson, says: "Next day following the review of his old command, the Fifth, we had a circus at home. Those who know him well had the least suspicion that General Miles was anything of sprinter. At any rate, we were drawn up to do a little extended order in battle forma- ton on the hills back of the post, and while we raced up hill and down dale, through timber and stubble and brush over all sorts of obstacles, halting at proper intervals to pepper the enemy, or perhaps rushing with rapid fire, the General was at our heels, watch in hand, and kept the youngest of us moy- ing lively in order to keep pace with his rapid directions.
 The army authorities are still contin- uing their experiments with aluruinum as an alloy for military accouterments. It is beheved that the experiments will lsn1onstrate that metal having alumni mum as base can be made useful for such articles as canteens, bayonets, scabbards, etc, and thus reduce the weight of these articles without lessen ing their durability.
 The committee on military affairs of the House of Representatives has given the officers of the army to understand that unless the officers themselves shall be united on the legislation they want, the prospects of getting any at all will be reduced. At present they are many and wide differences of opinion among the army leaders.
