John Punnett Peters. in his book, ''Nippur. or Explorations on the Eu- phrates, ' thus describes the valley of the Euphrates:
 Below Hit, in the alluvial delta of the two rivers Tigris and Euphrates, existed one of the primeval seats of civ ilization-one of Dame Natures kin dercartens, to teach her children the rudinenss of higher life. Out of this valley westward toward the fertile up- lands of northern Syria, downward io the rich coast land of the MediterTa- mean. outward to Cyprus and the isles, southward 10 the rival valley of the Nile, the road of commerce and con- quest had been the Euphrates. and for a large Part of the way the Euphrates IS no more than a Toad--a narrow path way, sunk 100 or 20O feet beneath the plateau of a sterile wilderness swarm- ing with wild Arabs. In the earliest ages this was the road that led the con- querors out and over which conquest aud civilization travelled hand m hand. Later it became the road by which conquerors entered into the very heart of Babylouia. So it was that BabylOuian and Egyptian, Syrian and AssyTian, Persian and Greek, Parthlan and Roman. Sassauian and Byzantine. MoSlem and Christian. surged back and forth along the highway between the eastern and the western worlds, bat ting fer posSessio ion.

4 rrnnrh lNn.. story.

The Gau1ois tells the following story of an intelligent French poodle: A blind beggar was in the habit some years sinco of frequenting the Pont des Sts. Peres, where h0 used to station him self with a clarinet and an intelligent poodle. The place was well chosen, and charitable contributions poured into the little wooden bowl which the dog held in his mouth. One day the blind man,
 who had reached an advanced age, was not to be seen. lie had fallen i'll, in fact, and was unable to pursue his svo- cation. His faithful companion, how ever, continued 10 frequent the accus- toned spot, and the pasSers by to whom he was familiar understood that his master was unwell, and, touched by the dogs fidelity, dropped their pence into his bowl in increased numbers. After a time the beggar died, an event which the willy poodle kept carefully 10 him self until he also became au absentee from the Pont des Sts. Peres. His dis appearance produced a great sensation among his numersas clientele, and a search was prosecuted, when the poor animal was found lying dead in a eel lar near his former masters abode, a sum of 20, eco francs in bonds of the Orleans railway being discovered under the litter on which be was stretched.

"Eyor find things in the boxes?' was asked of a pOstoffice collector who was taking the letters from n lamppost let ter box.
 ''Some. but not such 3n everlasting lot either" was the reply. A thief fleeing from his pursuers once dropped a watch in 8 lamppost letter box So that 1t would not 5e found upon his person nor along the line of his flight but watches are not commonly fo1ld lD lamppost letter boxes.
 "Once when I came up to a letter box found standing by It q policeman and a woman. The policeman said that the woman had dropped a dollar bill into the box between some letters and she wanted to get 1t back. The rules of the poStoflice require that anything that may be found in the boxes shall he turned in at the postoffiee. The loser must apply for it there if had found any money in this box. should have been compelled to turn it in. But there wasn't any money there. The lady must have lost 1t or have left it some wher0 else.
 ''Asa a matter of fact not many things of value are dropped into lamppost let ter boxes Up town you find dead mouse in a box occasionally, but that about all. Children put the mice in ths box. They find a dead mouse m the street and think it's funny to put 1t in a lamppost letter box. New York Sun.

The Voices Of Hullet..

From II:SO onward for two hours the Turks did their very best Their fire was incessant, like the independent firing which is so comforting a busi- ness. just before the enjoyable charge on a biz Aldershot field day. We kept a constant watch and fired when possible, but as we were against the skyline the enemy had much better sight of us than we had of them. However, from behind our little wall we could laugh and say, "Kale oral C'GOOd morning to you''). as the bullets howled past
 By the way, the voice of bullet varies. There Is the thin high whistle, to which no one pays any attention aft CT the first half hour There Is tho pro longed moan, ''the cry of lest spirit, '' as a novelist might say. There is the wolfish howl, which for some reason d. ways seems to be taking one sOn the flank instead Of fairly in front, aud last of all tLere is the low. i'll tempered buzz. as though the nasty thing had got out of bed the wruHg side, as children say. It is far the most terrifying, espe- cially if it suddenly stops as the Bullet strikes something close at hand. It was io those bullets only that we politely wished Good morning. - London Chronicle

Under it the trains which now run through between Ash Fork and Phenix, will be de- voted to the passenger, mail and express business, with probably an occasional car of through freight, and the time between the two points will be shortened considerably. The local train, now running between Prescott and Ash Fork, will be made a through train, and will do all the local work, and the time for a through trip will be fifteen or six teen hours. ..~
