AMONG the most enterprising organiza

Echoes OF Battle.

By Rushrod Washington James. Il
mo. Cloth extra, gilt edges. Price, 81
This volume is one that will int rest
every American. 1t should find lis way
into every patriotic home in this country
whose first steps towards independence,
and last blows for union, are so graphi-
cally referred to in its pages. The prose
portions of the book are valuable es
sketches of both the revolution and the
invasion part of tie Rebellion, while the
beautiful language of the corresponding
poems depicts with pathetic effectiveness
some of the scenes just after the battles
of Antietam and Gettysburg. The battle
Of the Brandy wine, ana the sad. long
days at Valley Forge are we'll described
missing" is q tenderly touching pro-
ductlou, telling of the unknown lost
ones in battle; and the description of
the "Hero OF Johustown" is full of vivid
aud thrilling pathos. Antietam and
Gettysburg will awaken a patriotic
chord in every true American. The
"Yacht Race" is beautiful and exhilar-
atinR effusion, displaying the author's
sympaihies with the sportive element Of
the community. 1t should have been
published alone while the summer con-
tests were in progress.
During the summer OF 1895 the author
rode and walked over many earthworks
and forts, travelling over much of the
ground of revolutionary battle fields. He
also revisited the fields of Antietam and
Gettysburg. These we're familiar to
him because of his active volunteer
duty as surgeon Immediately after the
terrific battles. And from these tours
be has elaborated the interesting notes
in the latter part of the volume.
Handsomely bound, and profusely
and suitably illustrated with artistic
half-tone reproductions OF photographs
and drawings, this book will be an at
tractive addition to every library, rs
we'll as a most readable and instructive
book for young and old alike.

A Great Musical Treat.

Lovers of grand opera have at last a
rare treat in the engagement OF the
Marie Tavary Opera company. This
organization, composed of galaxy Of
artists Of worldwide reputation, Is un-
der the able management of Chas. Il.
Pratt, whose success ID introducing to
the American public such renowned
artists as Marie Rose, Clara Louise
Kellogg, and who controlled the tours of
the late Emma Abbott for twelve years
renders him peculiarly adapted to pre-
senting grand opera in the most preten-
tious manner. Marie Basta Tsvary, the
renowned Russian diva, has reached the
highest round of fame in both continents
Her achievements have won for her the
highest praise in the musical centres of
the world. At Convent Garden, London,
royalty surrendered to her charms,
while in the theatres of st. Petersburg,
Munich, Milan, Paris, etc, her audiences
went wild with admiration. Possessing
a voice of the greatest volume, true and
clear, and characterized by sympathetic
sweetness and tiexlbility, she finds no
difficulty in holding her hearers spell
bound. Nine. Thea Dorre, the prims
donna mezzo soprano, is most fsscinat-
ing and charming artistic. Possessing
the fire of true dramatic spirit, together
with a pleasing personality and voice
OF rare sweetness, she proves, especially
In her interpretations of Carmen, M'g-
non and EAfricaine, second to none Of
our leading singers on the present oper-
attic stage. Chevslier Albert l.. Guile,
the Leading tenor, came to this country
six years ago with Adeline Patti, and his
supurb voice proved as strong an attrsc-
tion as the great diva herself. Knighted
by the King of Portugal. and the re-
cipient of social attentions in all the art
centres OF the continent, his career in
Europe is almost a matter OF history.
He relies solely on his voice and acting
for his triumphs, and has easily won the
complimentary title, "The silver-tongu-
ed little French Tenor" that Nine.
Patti bestowed upon him.

Shooting at the Depot Last Night.


Quite little excitement was created
in the vicinity of the depot last night
by hobo taking a shot at colored
men, with very little provocation for SO
doing. 1t seems that the hobo accosted
the colored man IN front Of Ctarley's 's
restaurant for a meal and upon being
refused started a row which shortly led
to the shooting. Naturally the colored
man had no desire to remain standing
still for target and before the second
shot could be fired darted around the
corner and entered the restaurant by
the side door IN a very uncermonlous
manner forgetting in his haste to even
try to open the door, which being lock-
ed strongly so resisted the strain
as to tear off all the casing on one side.

the restaurant picked up a chair and
drove him out of the front door. COun-
Gilman Burkbalter, who happened to be
passing by at the time en- his bicycl
said the gun had loud enough report
for small sized cannon and he imme-
distely began to peddle, in fact he never
has peddled wheel so hard IN his life
before, not that he was in the least
alarmed for his courage is uDquestioned,
but in order to turn in an alarm for the
police.
The fellow who did the shooting
quickly escaped. and owing to bis poor
Workmanship the only damage done
was to the restaurant door.

Mr.. BREWSTER CAMARoN's interview
in another column shows that he has
lost none of the characteristics which
endeared him to those who knew him
best In Arizona, devotion to country,
home, duty and friends. His attach
ment to his new home has not obliterat-
ed his affection for Arizona and her peo-
pie. He is like fresh breeze-full OF
life to those around him. His euthus-
iasm for Aransas Pass is infectious
every body catches il with whom he
comes in contact. Mr.. Cameron's tact
and adroitbess in managing their great
interests in Arizona under supreme diff
ficulties &C commanded the admiration Of
all who knew him. When he left here
to resurrect the great enterprise whose
new life is due to his industry, energy
and steadt8stpess Of purpose, be carried
with him the respect and confidence Of
a people who have never failed to chow
their esteem for integrity of character
and blameless personal life. Mr. Cam
eron has lost none of hie great capacity
for work. He certainly retains all the
tact which enabled him to remove with
ease in former days obstacles that we're
by others deemed unsurmountable. His
we'll known integrity of character is
guarantee that the Arkansas Pass enter
prise has genuine merit, for he is not
man who would because of any personal
interest, permit his name to be idepti-
fed with the project one hour after he
became convinced that it was not the
Eonest purpose of Messrs. Brown &
Sons to build up at Arsnsas Pass one of
the great ee8ports of the world.

FRIENDS OF PEACE.

The real friends Of peace, says the
San Francisco Bulletin, are those who
advocate declaration of national policy
which will keep Europe at the greatest
distance from the United States. With
Cuba in possession of Great Britain,
with France firmly established in Bra
I'll, the Nicaragua canal built and open
to war vessels OF all nations, the United
States would be compelled to construct
a navy at least equal to that of any
other power, to maintain Notifications
at all her ports and to materially enlarge
its standing army. With Europe on the
other side of the Atlantic denied the
right to shelter hostile fleets in Ameri-
can hsrbors, the United States would
be reasonably secure from invasion. The
Atlantic is too big pond to fight across.
A 400 ton battleship might cross il and
it might not. Had one been in the gale
the Baltimore passed through in its voy-
age from japan it would undoubtedly
have gone to place where bettleshirs
cease from troubling. Yet the Pacific
ocean, as rule, is a less dangerous
body of water than the Atlantic. The

session by European powers of Ameri
can territory is that such territory may
be used as seat OF operation in the
event of war. We know enough about
the clustering nations of Europe to
know that their diplomacy steers them
clear Of wars for which the other party
ls prepared. Our greas war serves three
generations as a warning. But small
wars are undertaken from caprice
There is always a little glory to be won
from a war which presents only mono
tonous series of triumpbs.

THE revival in business expected in
1895 did not materialIze. M In fact there
was more money lost IN failures in that
year than in 1894. There were 13,013
trade failures in 1895, against 12,72l in
the ''dsrk days of 1884," The liablli-
ties of these failures were 100000
greater than in 1894. This does not look
