The Journal Miner, in the interest of the republican party, is keen to take advantage of the mistakes of the democrats, and that the latter do oc- casionally furnish good ammunition for use against themselves is apparent by the fact that the Journal-Miner has commented as follows regarding an organization recently created in this city:

THE TARANTULA HAWK.

The taraEtula hawk is the one in sect conuueror of the tacantula. Its sting ins:c.atly paraly'zes every limb of it's victim, but for a great and wise purpose does not kill it. Animation is raerely suspended, though no chance of activity remains. Its venom takes eff feet as sudden as the snap of an eiec- trie spark. Having stung tanantula' which is the own particular and re- served prey of the tarantula hawk, the latter drags the tarantula, going back ward, to a suitable place, excavates hole five inches deep in the earth, places the helpless victim therein, deposits an egg under one of it's legs near the body, and then covers the hole very se-
 arely. In due time young tarantu-a hawk is katcked, feeds upon the car cass that matched it, until it is strong enough to push up through the earth Full grown it is somewhat more thar two inches long. The head, thorax abdomen and long, sp;ny legs are al slack, while the wings a.e of brigh1 !.rown, with black spots at the tips A fight between two taraItr.a hawk: means death to both.

FIVE WEEKS IN JERUSALEM.

On reaching the church itself Church of the Holy Sepulchre) there is a very picturesque crusaders door in Gothic architecture, dating from the eleventh century. The general plan of the dome has a certain grandeur about it, and the choir, belonging to the Orthodox Greek church, is beautifully ornamented; but the place of places to every Christian heart is the holy sepulchre itself, standing in the midst of the dome. It has been built over and lined with marble and hung with lamps, etc., etc., till it is no longer a rough-hewn cave; but on entering in- to it Ca task of considerable difficulty through the narrow low arch roughly hewn out in the rock) and on seeing the rocky slab on which lay the body of our Lord, you feel it is the true site, for it conveys the impression that it is just the sort of a cave that would be used for sepulchre purposes and these alone, and not a shrine built to accommodate the thousands of pill grims who flock there annually. With in it the slab of rough hewn rock lies altar-wise against the side of the cave, and is about the width and length that would be filled by a dead body; the top of it is now covered with marble slab to protect it from the kisses of the pilgrims, which would long ere this have worn away the stone. There is just room in front of this slab for about four persons to kneel; all the sides of the caves are hung with lights, jewelled icons, and pictures.
 To attempt to describe the feel ings evoked in the Christian soul when adoring at such a spot would be be- yond human pen. The Russian pill grims have touching habit of bring ing their bundle of grave clothes and laying them on this holy slab in or der to bless them for their future use. Of course there is always a Greek ecclesiastic present within the holy shrine, to watch over it. Just outside the cave is small alabaster orna- ment marking the traditional spot where the angels stood as they an- nounced "He is. not here, but He is risen. ."-The late Lady Mildred Beres- ford-Hope, in the April Pail Mall Mag azine.

All eyes will be upon Washington today The president is expected to send his message to the congress, and the forecast supplied by the Associated Press indicates that it will be a wig orous document Unless Spain shall reverse her attitude in the next twenty-four hours it is altogether likely that the United States will in tervene with arms in Cuba. In such event there can be no doubt that Cuba will be freed from Spanish domina- tion. The presidents course up to this hour has been statesmanlike and patriotic.

'It's an ill wind that blows nobody good"
 The excitement over the Gu ban situation has brought many new names to The Republican s subscription list. Our sub scribers find that The Republl- can gives them the live news of the day in advance of all other papers that circulate in this re- zion, and they are giving us a boost by making the fact known to people who have not been reg ular patrons of this paper. It Is a new thing for Arizonians to have a home paper that prints the cream of the Associated Press dispatches, and they are showing their appreciation in a most substantial manner. Ine circulation of The Republican has increased rapidly since the beginning of the war scare.
 It is the policy of this paper to give it's patrons the full worth of the money they invest in it. That it is a popular pol icy is shown by our advertising columns and our subscription list
