Miss Nellie Hughes and Miss Braley took trip to Benson and back today 10 meet Miss Woods of Tucson wLo will pay them a short visit.
 FL Hughes who has bcenin Tomb stone for some time on visit to his brother-in-law, Joe MePhe-son, re- turned home this evening after a very pleasant triH.
 Quite A number of Bis! ee's repre- sentatiyes returned from court at Tombstone this evening. A number of them carried boquets as though wishing to lead people to believe that they were just returning from Phenix or California. That gags too old though.
 Pro.. J. ". Stewart returned from Tombstone this evening after having been entirely exonrrated from the foolish charge brought against him. He was met at the train by number of bis friends and by large deIega- ton of the school children who wish- ed to show that they did not regard hIs actions as at all cut of the way. There is q rumor that those connect cd wi;h the school ard their parents will take up voluntary contribution to defray all his expensrs while away for the purpose of chewing how much they oppose the action taken by one or two parties.
 A number of the Bi,bee base ball crsnks have bad their minds made up for some time to have game of ball on the 3Dlh, and from prceent inTice- tions they are not to be disappointed. Tn spite Of the fact that he er.tirc team, from battery down. is sadly in n9sd of practice, arrange ments have been made for q game with the sol diars from HUachucs or that date and the necessary funds have ben subscribed. To our mind it is very poor policy for Bisbee to play a game at this time but i; is now too late 70 turn back even fl the team SO desired. The last three games played by the nine have been lost simply on account of the poor condition of the tam and this game bids fair Co be repct t;Cn of one of the others. Taken Tisht through Bi5bee can claim 2 tezm III of ss promising individuals as any team in the territory, but they have never yet gone into a game in even ordinary practice, and it is quite doubtful fl they ever will unless Bisbee expert ences some docid Ciclimatic cnanges

The Presidents "Coronation Figure

In the opening sentence of his speech at
the dedication Of the Grant tomb President
MCKINLEY said: "a great life, dedicated
to the welfare of the nation, finds here its
earthly coronation"
A critic complains that this smacks Of
monarchy, that the President must have
been thinking of NAPOLEON, and that he
drew his figure from "DAvID's great pic
ture the Coronation Of NAPOLEON
Where is such a picture to be foundi
LOUIS DAVID painted q coronation, but not
of NAPOLEON. The canvas Is in the museum
at Versailles. 1t depicts NAPOLEON descend
ing from the altar holding in his hand the
crown he is about to place on the head of
JOSEPHINE. Surely there is nothing in that
to suggest a monarchical source for the fig
ure Of speech employed by the President at
GRANTS tomb.
pictures: GERARD, PAUL DELARocHE,
MEIssoNIER; but there is no coronation of
NAPOLEON among them.
Other painters have painted coronations :
BoTTIcELLI, FRA ANGELICA. GUIDO REM,
ANDREA ORCAGNA, GIOVANNI BELLINI,
RAPHAEL, RUBENs, VELAsaUEz. PAUL We.
RoNEsE, TINToRETTo, ANNIBALE CARAcCI,
and still others. But these are all heavenly
coronations, and the subject Is not mon
arch. The President said "earthly corona
tion" Of "a life devoted to the welfare of
the nation" There is nothing monarchical
In the words.
The figure is daring and noble. 1t is as
splendid a jewel in the texture of the
speech as is the tomb itself upon the beau
tiful blue sky of the Hudson and the high
lands of New York. 1t is the Presidents
own. 1t Is as felicitous as it is original. 1t
has, moreover. that highest Of rhetorical
attributes, spontaneity blended with dis
tinction and propriety.

Sea. The case. therefore, is now analogous

Sea- The case, therefore, is now analogous
to that Of two years ago.
Mr.. UHL further pointed out that In the
previous season about 142, 900 skins had
been taken. and 1876, 1923 Of them carried to
London. OF those, about two-flfths were
captured in the area covered by the Paris
award, and the number taken in that area
had been about twice rs great rs the pre-
vious year. Thus, he added, "the sealing
season Of 1894 was the first during which
the provisions Of the Paris award were ap-
plicable, and the pelagic catch of seals, both
without and within the area defined In the
award, proved to have been the largest ever
known"
Additional facts only confirm those that
were set forth to Great Britain two years
ago. The pursuit Of knowledge as to the
habits Of the fur seals is comDendable, and
may greatly aid in the final solution Of the
problem. But Just now the need is to stop
pelagic slaughter in Behring Sea while the
investigation is going on. And IL we are
willing to give up our rentals and royalties
at the Pribylov Islands as an inducement
to that end, we are certainly Offering our
full share Of the mutual sacrifice.

trusts. That we hold such position as we
have attained in the worlds markets
through just such superior organization is
declared demonstrable by the fact that Of our
exports of manufactured goods SO per cent.
are produced by the associations represent
ing centralized manufactures, whereas those
articles, the manufacture Of which cannot
be centralized to advantage, are still sup
piled to the neutral markets By the coun-
tries that have low-priced labor. With our
high wages we cannot compete with Eu-
rope in paying close attention to individual
wants, but through Capitalization we can
manufacture In great quantities for the
masses goods of uniform and better quality
for given price.
Mr.. FLINT concludes that, II the evolu-
tion in economic manufacture, now going
on through the institution Of trading com.
binations, Is to be interfered with by the
courts, and legislative enactments arc to be
substituted for natural laws; II. In other
words world competition is to be prohib-
tied by preventing that concentration Of
capital on which low prices depend; the
inevitable result will be less employment,
low wages, and the consequent pauperiza-
tion Of American labor.

The Plight OF Greece.

The decisive battle in Thessaly had not
been fought up to latest accounts but the
Turks are busy feeling the Greek position
all along the line with their cavalry recon-
noissances. At Velestino they appear to
have been decisively checked in the
first attacks, but as that point Is
vitality necessary to their object, that of
throwing back the Greek right, the attacks
will be renewed In combination with others
at important points of the Greek line
until they are successful, or the Greek re-
sistance obiges the Turkish commander to
await further reinforcements. 1t is to be
noted that the troops under the immediate
command of Gen. SMoLENIrs appear to have
maintained the reputation they won
In the fighting north OF the Sal
amvria. This is probably as much due
to their confidence in him as
commander as to anything else, and 1t is
Just possible that now that the whole army
Is under his orders and supervision, he may
instill the same feeling into the other corps
that became 80 demoralized during the
retreat from Matt to Larissa. The Turk
ish cavalry that is now employed searching
the Greek positions Is mainly composed of
Kurds and Circassians, wild and dashing
horsemen, just the sort of men fitted
for the work. The latter especially
distinguished themselves during the
Russo Turkish war in night surprises of
the Russian cavalry outposts and In raid
ing horses, at which they were experts of
the first order. As fighters In the open,
however, they did not signaliEs them

The Legal Disabilities OF Dogs.

On Monday the Supreme Court of the
United States gave a decision in the case of
SENTELL VS.. the New Orleans and Carroll
ton Railroad Company. Mr.. SENTELL used
to have the good fortune to own sound
and kind Newfoundland dog, whose value
he estimated at 5000. Anybody who has
ever had q good Newfoundland knows that
this figure was purely nominal. The value
of such an animal depends upon the intel
ligence. appreciativeness, and sympathy of
his owner. However, Mr.. SENTELL was
obliged to appraise his dog after car Of the
defendant company's had committed can't

dogs are only to be regarded as personal
property when duly recorded upon the as.

statute in question CONSTITUTIONAL

The First Need for the Seals.

Great Britain has made known her will
ingness and purpose to send Prof. THoMP-
SON again to Behring Sea to gather moro
facts about the sealing industry, and our
Government is also to send back Prof. JoR-
DAN for like purpose.
But while this is very well, it is evident
that the great. practical step to take just
now is the securing of modus vtvendt,
under which seal killing In Behring
Sea, on land or in the water, shall be pro-
hibited this year. With that result
achieved, the experts can take their time for
additional studies. and the ruin of the
Pribylov herd will not be going on.
In Mr.. UHLs letter of May 10, 1895, to
Sir JULIAN PAUSoEFoTE, urging such q
modus. he said that our Government had
asked for its extension also to the North
Pacific, pending examinations by commits
sioners. but that it ives not yet too late In
