THE HONDURAS UPRISING.


Other Central American Heputlfos
May Aid In Suppfessina II.
: washington. April ls.rMipjster Rod.
rigueE. the minister u the Greater Re.
public Of Central America, has re-
ceived no telegram regarding the re-
ported uprising In Hopduras. There
are two parties In Honduras. as there
are In the two other renpblics Of the
Greater Republic Of Central America,
the Liberals and Conservatives. AT
presents the Liberals are In the su.
premacy In Honduras. having regained
power by the overthrow of President
VaQuez. The present executive Ii
President Bonilla.
Tho government'ef Honduras is much
less stable than that Of the other two
countries. There IL always great
deal of social and political agitation
there. owing to the rivalry Of the OPP
posing leaders, but 1t is usually kept
under cover until q revolution breaks
out. 1t IL possible that General Va
Que1. who was overthrow three years
ago. may be at the head Of the present
movement. Previous revolutions, while
attended with bloodshed, usually havo
been brief. The population of Hon.
duras Is about $4,000. II the revolu-
tion should prove unusually severe tho
other two republics in the confedera-
tion may aid In restoring order.

She Mesa SoaIsd
to see.

After four centuries of effort the Mesa Euchantada in New Mexico has been scaled. The honor belongs to Prof. Lib- bey of Princeton University. The mesa rises to height of $50 feet sheer from the plains and covers space of ten acres For ten years the place has chal- lenged the attention of scientific men, because of the humor that it was inhab. ited by the remains ot an ancient race, and numerous efforts have been made to reach it's summit, to no avail. Prof. Libbey was equipped with number of tandem kite teams, balloon and gun used by the United States life-saving service. It was with this latter appa- ratus that the ascent was made of the rock which Coronado, as early as two centuries ago, stated was more impreg- nsble than Gibraltar, against which ths armies of the world would not avail. The cannon was anchored in the desert and cord of 5000 feet in length was shot over the mesa and made fast in the sand of the opposite side. Then work
 men made the ascent, creeping and climbing over the rough edges and ehelves to the summit. He was followed bv Prof. Lbbey, who went up in traV- cling chair. Then came others of the party. ca the summit were no evidences of inhabitants. The huts that were there are gone. The bones of the 200 women said to have been left on the surface to starve could not be found It was bare and desolate place. The only water found was such as stood in hollow places dug out by the Acoma Indians 1000 any kind There was the great rocky battlements used by the tribe before their rocky ladder path was destroyed and ny which they defended themselves from attacks of the invaders, but all else was desolate IL is presumed by scien- tists tn it the flora found on the surface would be of the kind that grew in the prehistoric world, the summit having just emerged from the ancient sea, and it is presu ned that the flora has not changed Therefore the specimens gath cred will be of vast interest to botanists, and may perhaps open new field of dis covery-M. & S.

Ghe Gequiqe Man.

No man is genuine, says Woodrow Wilson in the September Atlantic, who IS forever trying to pattern his life after the lives of other peopIe-unless, indeed, he be a genuine dolt. But individuality is by no means the same as genuineness i; for Individuality may be associated with the most extreme and even ridiculous eccentricity, while genuineness we con- celve to be always wholesome, balanced, and touched with dignity. It is quality that goes with good sense and self re- spect. It is a sort of robust moral san. itv, mixed with elements both moral and intellectual. It is found in natures too strong to be mere trimmers and con- formers, too we'll poised and thoughtful to fling off into incorporate protest and revolt. Laughter IS genuine which has in it neither the shrill, hysterical note of mere excitement nor the hard metallic twang of the cynic's sneer-which rings in the honest voice of gracious good hu. mor, which is innocent and unsatirlcal. Speech is genuine which is without stiffness, affectation, or pretense. That character is genuine which seems built by nature rather than by convention, which ls stuff of independence and of good courage. Nothing spurious, bas- tard, begotten out of true wedlock of the mind; nothing adulterated and seeming to be what it is not; nothing unreal can ever get place among the nobility of things genuine, natural, of pure stock and unmistakable lineage. It is pre-. rogative of every truly human being to come out from the low estate of those who are merely gregarious and of the herd and show his innate powers culti-

stant as the needle to the pole in their obsequions obedience to tine dictates of party. They approve every act of the bosses and applaud every sentiment emanating from the capitol, either at Washington or Phenix. Such papers are not only of no value to the commu- nifty, but are real detrlment, and enc. mics to the people. However, we will not waste sympathy upon those who toll crate them.
 The designing newspaper man, like the interruptions individual in any other calling. will adopt the policy in which there is the most money. Therefore, he stands in with "the powers that be" knowing full we'll that his services will be needed, and paid for, to defend and cover up questionable official transac. tions. AS for the "dear public" he has sized it up long ago and recognized the fact that the majority of people are suckers in politics, and that the newepa- per which supports the administration will be spplauded by every partizan nincompoop of the same political stripe within hearing. So the scheming editor catches the big fish and the suckers on which the big fish feed in the same net.
 These thoughts are suggested by the present disreputaole course of some of the republican papers of Arizona which chatter like 8 lot of idiotic parrots, echoing the editorial mouthings of the eastern goIdbug press, rej oicing oyer the decline of silver, as though the heavy shrinkage in the value of one of our great commodities was a matter for congrat- ulation Their course might be in a measure excusable if It were necessary in order to vindicate the republican po- sition on the silver question, but it is not. It is in fact inconsistent with re publican professions which have shown at least a semblance of friendship for silver and an alleged desire to promote it's large use and to restore bimetallism by international agreement.-Globe Belt.

A striking and painful illustration oi the popular ignorance of Arizona's scientific wonders Is furnished in a late nun Der of The National Magazine, pub- lished in Boston. Irvlngton Trudell is writing serious of articles on what he Is pleased to term the 'tseven wonders ot the new world" He includes in this category Niagara Falls, the Yellowstone Park, the Yosemite Valley. the Nam moth Cave of Kentucky, the Canyons and Gardens of the Gods of Colorado, the Giant Trees of California and the Natural Bridge of Virginia.
 The learned gentleman has probably never heard of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado River, or, as it should be known, the Grand Canyon of Arizona Perhaps he will describe it as one of the canyons in Colorado-minor, insignia cant affairs not worthy to be mentioned in the same breath with the mighty marvel near Williams.

Bag as yon Go GIub

A new club has been proposed among a certain set of advanced thinkers. Mo- body but an advanced thinker, one very much ahead of the time, would be will ing to join it. It has constitution and one bylaw. The bylaw declares that no member of the club shall purchase even so much as pair of shoestrings without paying the cash. The subname of the club is the Spot Cash society.
 The panic of 1893 gave rise to the idea of the club. Its founders reasoned that
Mohave County miner., 1897-09-11

every human being who has true grit and determination can get living; that It is only the weddings and the slump CTS who drop out of the battle and from running into debt sink lower and lower, ill they end in full pauperism. They reason that the person who keeps braced ID in his mind cannot fail to win in the long run. It is powerful Dracer to be able to look the world in the eye and say am in no mans money debt, how ever much good will owe to my fellow men. The founders of the Pay as You Go club believe their society will tend to intensity and widen this independent feeling among mankind.
 The preamble of the Pay as You Go clubs recites that whereas the experience of mankind shows a strict cash basis to be the only one upon which business can be safely transacted, therefore the mem bers pledge themselves individually and separately to live up to the principle enumerated Tn the title ot their club, and that they will do all in their power to bring mankind in general to their way of thinking, thereby avoiding panics, business failures and living beyond one's means; also removing from weak men in place of trust the temptation to run into debt and appropriate to their own use the funds of others. The mem bers further pledge themselves absolutely to do without what they cannot pay for Thus they declare they will keep their conscience clear and their souls free from slavery of the most degrading sort.-Ex

An Explanation of How Strange
 Plants and Weeds Appear.

Two centuries ago the Dutch destroyed every nutmeg tree Tn the Moluccas, in order to enjoy a monopoly of the busi- ness, having planted the trees in their own possessions. In spite of their most earnest efforts, however, the islands were constantly being overstocked. For long time the thing was a mystery, but at length it was solved. The doves of that quarter of the world are of large size, and readily swallow the seeds of the nutmeg. They traverse wide stretches of sea and land in few hours and deposit the seeds not only uninjured but better fitted for germination by the heat and moisture of the birds system. By similar process thousands ot acres of land have been covered with trees of different kinds, the birds acting as ns- ture's agents in the dissemination of plants. Darwin found in six grains of earth adhering to the feet of a blower three different kinds of seeds, and in Duu stICAlpS to tDo IcoC Ol uuCks Anu geese shot in England he found the seeds of plants peculiar to the Victoria Nyanzs, in Central Africa, thus proving not only the extent of migration, but also the possibility of plants appearing in strange localities through the agency of these birds. In the mud sticking to the feet of Texas steer the seeds of five differ ent kinds of weeds and grasses, common in Texas were found by microscopist after the arrival of the animal Tn New York.-Coleman' Rural World.
