SYMPATHY.

We are as harps that vibrate to touch
From stranger hands, unconscious 1t the
strings,
While the souls slunbering echoes wake to Life
And through its halls responsive music rings.
Few are the Davids to these harps Of ours!
Few learn the cunning Of the instrument!
And those to whom the gift has been denied
Arc oftenest those with whom our lives ere
spent.
But Gods large gift OF love Is showered around
Let us be thankful. Earth were too like heaven
Il, with the power Of loving deep and long.
That other gift Of sympathy were given.

DID NOT PAN OUT.

Ono OF tho Very Few Ohio Ideas That DID
Not Succeed.
"The flying machine fever" said q pat:
ent office official, prevailed very extern
sively during President Grants adminis-
tration, when General Leggett of Ohio
was commissioner Of patents. Many in
ventors, or at least persons who supposed
that they were inventors, bad 1t very bad,
and there was scarcely week that some fly
ing machine fellow did not turn up or write
TO the patent office. The great majority
of them never even went 90 far as to make
Q model, but ooDtented themselves with
crude drawings explaining their ideas Of
aerial locomotion. All Of them were poor
and wanted the patent office to furnish
the money to build their machines. Ire
member one fellow In Particular. He was
we'll known to General Leggett and served
under him in an Ohio regiment during the
war. He telegrophed General Leggett
from Urbana, O.: Hold patent on flying
machine until arrive Refuse all appllca-
lions until you have seen mine The
general answered him, by mail, however,
that the office would consider anything be
had to offer, or words to that effect. Then
there came from the inventor q daily let-
ter for q couple of weeks describing tho
invention with great detail. To cut of
the supply of letters, the general wrote
him q personal letter, with the idea Of
cooling him down, but 1t had the opposite
effect, for it was followed by the announce
ment that the inventor would arrive here
in few days and would give an e1hibi-
ton of the machine The man did come.
and with him came bis machine. In shape
it was like q sugar hogshead, with the
customary wings Of nearly oil flying ma
chimes. 1t was light, and was made Of
white cotton covering spiral steel frame.
Nothing would suit the inventor except
that the patent Office should take short
recess, while every one connected with IL
could 90 out and sec the machine fly from
the F street porch Of the building. The
general finally persuaded him that the first
exhibition should not be so publicly given
and that he and few others would exam
inc the machine that afternoon after Office
hours About O'Clock half dozen or
more repaired to the + street porch. and
the inventor, after screwing up half dos-
en- or go springs and oounterbalances, an
Dounced that he was ready to fly the Won
der. It was supposed that he intended to
20 up in it, but be soon dispe]led that
idea by saying that the machine he had
was but q miniature model Of what he in.
tended to make, but that 1t was sufficient
to show what could be done.
Finally he let her go, and to the surprise
Of every one the machine flew nicely up
In the air and across street. BY mis-
calculation It struck the corner Of the post
Office department building very hard and
fell In the area q mass Of broken metal,
smashing itself into dozen pieces. The
inventor ran across to look at the REM
nants, and by the time he bad returned 10
explain the cause Of the disaster the porti-
90 was deserted. 1t was an Ohio idea,'
General Leggett remarked, and IT was ono
Of the very few Ohio ideas that did not
pan out. "-Washington Star.

of that report the area within which sugar beets may be profitably grown has been extended in both directions. Though the percentage of sugar may not be so great, on an average, as Tn more northern climate, the advantages of longer season during which the crop may be grown and harvested and the longer time open for working the roots in the factory as we'll, more than eom- pensats for the small reduction in sugar contest. In cold climates it is necessary to have factory of ofsuffIcient capacity to work up the whole beet root crop within a short space of time, or the roots must be buried in a soil to keep them from frost, thus entailiug an extra handling. While in warm climates, such as prevail over the great CT part of Arizona, the beets may be left where they grow until needed at the factory"

THE SUGAR BEET ZONE.

Arizona ought to become one of the principal beet sugar producing regions of the United States. It lies within the zone designated by pr. Wiley as the sugar beet zone. Then there IS the evidence of successful production on
 the west by California, on the north by Utah and on the east by New Mexico
 Touching this matter Director DevoI of the Arizona Station says in bulletin 23 It is reasonable to expect that throughout the greater part of Arizona the sugar beet nav be successful grown. Nearly the whole of the Territory lies
 within the zone designated by Dr. Wiley, in his report of 1890, as the sugar belt, the southern part reaching some what south of 1t. This belt takes a sinuous course across the United States, doubling upon itself in the Rocky Mountain and Pacific coast regions, following the isotherm of 70 degrees Fahrenheit for the month of June and August, and extending for a distance of one hundred miles upon either side of this isotherm.

The taxes, however, were promptly pad, and the cattle are now on route to their destination. MT. Hof is now considering the advisability of appointing deputy, whose duty it will be to watch all shipping points. The treasurer further states that he will seize any or all cattle in transit within the borders of the county upon which the taxes remain unpaid, as the terri. tory, under the new law, loses it's lien after cattle are beyond it's borders. It would, perhaps, be advisable, says the Star, for cattle owners to remember this fact so as to avoid an unnecessary loss of time and an unnecessary accumula- tiou of hard feeling. MT. Hoff has made this stand for Pima county, as the pro- per official, and anyway it IS just as easy to pay these taxes sooner-volun- tarily-as it is later by cOmpulsion. and all concerned will feel so much better.

A TOUGH CUSTOMER.
A Bad Man Railing From Our
 Own Land.

A Providence, R. l.. dispatch says: powerful man, with a pleasent race, who smokes cigarettes and says he be- longs in Arizona, is locked up at the Central station. Recently he has been riding on passenger trains on the Con- solidated road without paying his fare. When the conductor asked for the west terner's fare he answered: "I have not got cent; what arc you going to do about it?'
 Yesterday he boarded a train at Pawtucket, and when the conductor came along the big man refused to pay. Before tke train reached this city the man was surrounded by railroad men, so that he could not escape. He was arrested on a charge of being intoxicat- ed. The prisoner says his father is a sheriff in Arizona.
