REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

Chairman Kibbey issued the official call for the Republican territorial con vention yesterday, and it is published this morning. The convention will consist of 112 delegates; 57 necessary to a choice.
 The call provides that a candidate for congress may be nominated If the convention desires to do so. Six dele gates and six alternates to the Ma tional convention will be elected and a territorial committee selected.
 The calling of the convention is the last official act of the old committee Chairman Kibbey is not a candidate for reelection, as it is a position of much responsibility and little reward and he is willing that others should perform some of the labor. It will however, be said of Chairman Kibbey that he conducted the first successful Republican campaign in Arizona fo1 many years, and that as chairman he has given general satisfaction and is entitled to the thanks of the party.
 The Republican hopes that Judge Kibbey's successor will be man ot equal executive ability and endowed

INVITING OUR ATTENTION.
R. L. LONG,
 Secretary

The desire of some of the South American republics for closer rela- tf5ns with the United States is ex- pressed strikinglY in an Invitation which has just been extended by Ar genuine, Brazil and Uruguay, through our state department, ito the cham bers of commerce of eight American cities, requesting a visit from repre- senlatives of these commercial bodies
 The cities are New York, Philadel- phia, Boston, Baltimore, Ch.cago, St. Louis, Cincinnati and New Orleans, aud l1he southern republics give assur- ance that in case the invitation is ac- cepted 'ithe authorities of the nation will be at the disposal of the .distin- gulshed visitors" Here is the open ing for American trade and commerce to. the south of us, and the cities so honored by Argentine, Brazil and Uruguay will not deserve trade if they do not seize and utilize this oppor- tu1ity. The invitation is an emphatic corroboration, too. of the recent state. ments that South Americans were anxious to drop England and Germany and turn towards the United States in their commercial relations.
 Tine absence of American banking institutions in Buenos Ayres has long been deplored by native and American merchants and traders of that great city. The Argentine Republic has re peaItedly expressed @ willingness to s,ubsidize a steamship lime between ita csDital and New York upon the least encouragement by our congress, and

ALL NATIONS AlRMING.

It is not at all encouraging to the various peace societies of this and oth- CT countries ito observe the tremen- dous preparations for war that are now being made by most of the nations of the earth. The millennium can not be very close at hand when the ener- gies of the world are devoted to the building of engines of war and de- struction.
 The naval intelligence office has is sued a report outlining the proposed increase of the worlds naval arm and the cost, which will be provided for this year. All the leading powers in the old world are preparing and has, tening to build ships of war. Argen- tine will buy or build two great bat ltleships, two large cruisers and six torpedo boats. Brazil will add four armored vessels and several torpedo boats. Chilli will add three large ves- sells to her navy. In France $14,000,- 900 will be voted for construction, in England s91, 100000, in Germany s20,- 000,000, in Italy s4,400000, in Spain $4,500,0OO, in Russia $1,250,000, and even in Bulgaria s4,0O0,OO0. Here is a proposed aggregate expenditure of about s15O,OOO,OOO for new warships! And the naval plans of China and Jopan are not included.
 The trouble is that the superior equipment of one warlike or aggressive nation, like France or England, or Germany, forces all the others to arm in self defense. The rich nations can stand the expense, but the poorer ones are burdened only the more in theil desperate efforts to place themselves i'll position to repel aggression, or re- sent insult. Whether they want to indulge in such costly armaments o1 . not, there is no alternative left but te build more fighting machines. The United States is more exposed, richer greater object of envy to the older nations, at least, than any of the new world countries, and yet we are pro ceeding more leisurely than any other f1rst-class power in putting ourselves m condition of defense. Let Us hope we will have no occasion soon to regre this leisure gait, but the indications point the other way. A condition oi perfect defense and security is the greatest guaranty of respect and o1 peace

Manufacturers of other sarsaparillas sought by every means to obtain a showing of their goods, but they were all turned away under the application of the rule forbidding the entry of patent medicines and nostrums The decision of the Worlds Fair authori- ties in favor of Ayers Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows: Ayers Sarsapa- rilla is not patent medicine It does not belong to the list of nostrums.

You need blood purifier. We make this assertion with confidence because it is fact that there is scarcely one person in ten thousand whose blood is free from humors, scrofula, acids, or some taint, either hereditary or ac- quired. Pimples,1 ,15oils, blotches, erup- tionGs are not the only indications. De- bility, lack of energy, depression of spirits, loss of appetite, rheumatic pains, poor sleep, headache, dizziness, specks floating before the eyes, and many other symptoms plainly indicate the need of thorough cleansing of the blood. The longer you delay, the more difficult will be the cure. The medicine to take is Ayers Sarsaparilla, and the time to begin is now. Con tinue to take it through March, April and May, or until you feel that health and strength are fully restored, which will be when all those painful and troublesome symptoms are entirely re- moved. The young, the old, the mid dle-aged alike need the potent, but benign influence of Ayers Sarsapa- rilla, the best of blood medicines. | The sooner you begin to fight the | fire, the more easily it may be eXtin- guished.

The Horrible "Jiggers" OF Africa.

The village of Mayilo is surrounded
by bona of stakes, clayed four feet
up; the three gates are firmly closed
at night. The natives do not venture
outside at night for any purpose, and
this gives the village a very pretty
aspect. The place is horribly infested
with the burrowing flea, ''the jigger,
the pest of men, women and children,
who are mass of horrid sores.
Through lack of washing, and remov-
ing the jigger when he first enters,
big sores are found all over the feet.
l felt very sorry for the chill
dren, who were all more or less lame,
and many stumping about on their
heels, unable to put foot to ground.
owing to swollen toes. The moaning
of women at night, and the believing
of youngsters, were most distressing
to hear. tried to impress on them
that constant washing and attention to
their feet and occasional flooding of
the low, clayey ground in hut and
street, would cure the evil but it was
too much like hard work to be adopted.
The flooding could be done without
the slightest injury to property, as
the streets are quite level, and the
clay hoorings of grass brick are raised
about foot above the ground; but
no precautions are taken, and even
the babies are permitted to squat on
the bare ground as though the jigger
did not exist. Century.

Costly Game Heads.

The head of the musk OK is the
most costly of mounted game heads,
and next is the head of the bison, or
buffalo. Fine buffalo heads, well
mounted, bring from $3.50 to $500. A
head at $500, however, would be one
exceptionally large and choice; and a
fine head can be bought for $3.50.
Fifteen years ago well-mounted buffa-
10 heads could be bought from $50 to
800. The increase in price is ac-
counted for by the growing scarcity
of the buffalo, which has now practi-
cally disappeared from the United
States. The wood bisons of the Great
Slave Lake region of British North
America, which inhabit woodland, or
mountain districts, are rather more
numerous than the prairie buffalos OF
this country, but their numbers are
limited and decreasing. The wood
bison is not so large as the prairie buff
falo. and its hair is straighter, and
very black.
Mush OK heads are held at $500 and
inward. One musk OK head owned by
a taxidermist in this city is valued at

POssessOr Of q Shekel.

David Levy OF Elwood, Ind, is the
possessor of a rare coin, shekel is
sued some time during King David s
reign, making it about 8, 900 years
old. 1t is of bronze or copper, and
is somewhat larger and thicker than
an American half dollar. On its edge
it looks like it had been cut out by
hand. One side bears the inscription,
"Shekel of Israel" The other
side shows the stree of life,
and an inscription which reads,
"Money of Jerusalem. There
is only one other coin of this kind in

Artificial Bird and Animal Eyes.

Artificial eyes in imitation of the
eyes of birds and animals are made in
great variety. They are used in
mounting birds and animals as speci-
mems; birds eyes are used in mount
ing birds for millinery trimmings; an
imals' eyes are used for the heads in
fur rugs, and both bird and animal
eyes are used for many other pur-
poses; for example, for eyes in cane
and umbrella heads made in imitation
of animals, for many kinds of toys,
and SO on. Artificial eyes are also
made for some living animals; it is
not uncommon for horses to have
glass eyes, and dogs are sometimes
provided with them; in at least one
case a calf has been supplied with one,
but most artificial eyes are for use in
mounting natural specimens, and in
the manufacturing uses above referred
to.
The eyes are made, of course, in
imitation of nature, and many of
them are beautiful. The stock that
the manufacturer or dealer keeps
always on hand is wonderful in its
variety. There is no eye that could
not be supplied. Here are humming
birds eyes, and alligators' eyes, tigers
eyes, and swans eyes, and eyes for
owls, and for eagles, and for birds of
all kinds and sizes; eyes for mounted
fishes, eyes for the bear, the lion, the
panther, the fox, the squir rel, the dog,
and the wolf, and for other animals to
be mounted, and eyes for imitation,
pigs and dogs, sheep and cats and 80
on.
Artificial eyes for birds and animals
are sold chiefly to taxidermists, to
furriers, and to the various manufac-
turers. They are sold in pairs; the
number sold in the aggregate Is very
large. The busiest season is the fall
and winter--New York Sun.

Two Aims.

He wrote Of conquests, dreamed Of fame,
And yearned for honors, lands and gold
For these, while long years went and came,
His manhood prime he gladly sold.
And fitting past him, trooped they on,
These gaudy phantoms, frail deceits,
Till speedily they all were gone,
He stood where prime with old age
meets
Then lived to conquer, sued not fame,
But yearned to do and be his best;
And, wond' rously, to him there came
With this wish granted all the rest.
