VISITING A SHRINE.
Lieutenant RAwlinson's Daring Entry Int
the Sacred City of Kuna.

Lieutenant RAwlinson's Daring Entry Int
the Sacred City of Kun.
Ium, a walled city OF Persia, ran-s
second TO Meshed in sanctity, on ac-
count or tine famous shrine or Masuma
Fatima, sister of the Imam Ria, a IA
nous saint of the Mohammedans.
While Lieutenant Rawlinson was on
his way to Teheran he heard much of
this sacred city and the glories Of the
shrine, which, it was said, no Euro
pean had ever entered. Death, SO rumor
whispered, would be the portion of the
audacious infidel who should be discov-
cred within its precincts.
To a young and ardent spirit danger
ous adventure is an irresistible attrac
ton. Young Rawlinson determined to
visit the shrine. Disguised as a Persian
pilgrim, thousands of whom annually
journey to the sacred city, he Joined the
crowd of pilgrims His knowledge Of
Persian and of the customs of the coun-
try enabled him TO pass undetected
through the temple gates and to make
his way TO the tomb of the saint. The
guardian gave MIN the customary form
o. words and he repeated them.
But his curiosity almost caused his
detection. Attracted by magnificent
suits OF steel armor which hung On the
walls, he was gazing at them, when
suddenly he found that he had turned
his back upon the sacred shrine where
in the saint was entombed.
A thrill of alarm startled him, but
the discourtesy, impossible to a true
believer" had not been noticed. If il
had been, there would probably have
been no further career for the young
lieutenant, who subsequently, became
the decipherer of Assyrian and Babylo-
nian inscriptions and texts, and died the
renowned orientalist, Sir Henry Raw
linson. Youths Companion.

A STEAM ROLLER NEEDED.

If The Republican succeeds in in- teresting the supervisors and the city council in the idea of securing a steam roller for use on the city and county roads it will be we'll satisfied. Once these officials investigate this Ques- tion they are certain to be favorably impressed. Wherever road rollers are employed there is general satisfaction with the result The Batavia, N Y News in recent reference to the work done at Medina, N. Y., by a roller pur- chased two years ago declared that if the people of Medina were "half as we'll satisfied as those of Batavia were with their own roller they were to be envied. The writer has seen the roads in Orleans and Genesee counties, New York, where rollers are employed, and is quite certain that no better roads are to be found in the United States.
 The conditions in Maricopa county are excellent for good road making. The ordinary dirt road, if dragged, wet down thoroughly and then rolled, can be made ideal for driving. The methods now followed are the same as those long ago aban- doned in New Jersey, Massachusetts, Georgia and other progressive states. Enough water goes to waste on the roads of this valley every year that, if mead in connection urifh q cfoa VI, roller, would make magnificent roads. The supervisors and the city council may easily procure valuable data re- lating to the use of road rollers. We hope they will take hold of this ques- tion. The people generally who would like good roads ought to helI spur them on.

THE SPANISH SITUATION.

The latest advices from Madrid in dicate that the Spanish government has not modified it's position in the least. and the inference from its al- leged desire Wednesday to placate this government is that it simply wished to gain time. When it comes to ways that are dark etc., the Spaniards can give cards and spades and still win out. From our dispatches this mo1n- ing we infer that the president does not yet see any reason fur changing the message which he prepared sev- ral days ago and which may be sent to congress next Monday. We com mend to the consideration of the war like spirits who are condemning the president for his failure to hurriedly plunge the country into conflict the reply he made yesterday to the repre- sentatives of the European powers who called upon him at the White House and appealed to his feelings of human ity. "The United States" replied MT Mckinley, recognizes the good will of the powers of Europe and appreciates the humanitarian and disinterested character of your communication, and hopes that equal appreciation will be shown for it's earnest endeavor to full fill duty to humanity by ending a situation the indefinite prolongation of which has become insufferable.' '' There was nothing nealy mouthed in this reply; rather was It a straightfor- ward declaration by a man who knows his duty and is not to be swerved from it. The situation this morning cannot be said to squint toward peace. Gen. eral Lee is to leave Havana Saturday, and the other Americans there will consult their best interests by leaving also. By next Monday at the latest we ought to hear something definite in this long drawn out matter.

INVENTION IN WAR TIME.

So rapid and various has been the advance in military science the last few years, so much more formidable the modern warship and gun have be- come, the world is naturally interested in knowing what would happen if hos tilities were to break out between two important nations. How effective would be these monstrous weapons of offence and defence? How buoyant would our steel war vessels prove? Would our fast cruisers show as much speed as would naturally be expected of them if they were subjected to the test of actual warlike service? Which has progressed the further, the science of attack or the science of defence. Which is the most destructive explo- sive, and which can be used with greatest success?
 The war in China and that in Greece gave us some ideas on these several matters, but not as extensive informa- tion as we might like to possess. If war breaks out between the United OCdI6S duu Opdlu Wc Hay nave dh abundant opportunity to increase our knowledge, and if it lasts long enough
 we shall see new inventions coming to the front which will supplement if they do not displace some of our present cherished contrivances for inflicting humiliation upon our enemies That is the experience of all wars. Nations prepare to the best of their ability for
 future conflict. They build their
 ships and their guns according to the
 plans of skilled and ingenious inven- 1 tors. They do everything in their power to secure themselves against a successful attack and they pride them
 selves, very properly, on what they 1 have done in the way of precaution i But any long drawn-out contest must 1 suggest new forms of armament new
 methods of attack. We saw this illus trated in the civil war when Fries sons Monitor made an immortal name
 for itself by defeating the dreaded Merrimac. Here was ship that revo-
 lutionized modern warfare and has in- | fuenced the construction of warships ever since. Yet who would have

A PERTINENT QUESTION.
Why the Saloons are More Attractive Than the Cheap Temperance Eat
 ing Houses.

When we set off, Clark was in the full swing of provident plan.
 There's lots of saloons,' he said, where you can get free lunch with glass of beer" And he began to point them out to me all along our route. Large signs in front competed for the drifting trade. On one was painted a huge schooner brimming over with frothing beer, and 1t bore the legend: "The largest glass of beer for five cents in Chicago" Another sign claimed for it's shop: "The best free lunch in the city, and others told of hot sausages with every drink, or a certain number of oysters in any style, or hot stews at choice, and bread and cold meats and cheese in unstinted abundance.
 All this so exactly met our needs. And there were warmth and shelter and companionship within the saloons, and having drunk at the bar and eaten at the free-lunch counter, we should be free to sit at ease about the fire. And how cheap it all was! For fifteen cents, Clark was saying, we could get three fair meals day, and even ten cents would save us from the actual pdiu LII uuuSSI. uOiO /" oS Ao OeACA chance that compared with this. The utmost that five cents would buy in the cheapest eating-houses was a cup of coffee and two small rolls. There were ten-cent meals to be had, but they were not the equals of a free lunch and a glass of beer. To get their equiva- lent in restaurant, you must spend fifteen cents at least.-From "The Workers-The Vest" by Walter A Wyckoff, in the April Scribner's.

thought it possible to build a ship of this kind in 1860 and render it suf ficiently formidable to dispatch the proudest vessel of the confederacy?
 We are an ingenious nation. We have a knack for adopting novel means to our desired ends. And when necessity comes in the shape of war we shall find it once more the mother of invention. Along what lines will our mechanical engineers and our in genious laymen, so to speak, devise new method of warfare? Nobody can tell. The opportunity has not yet come. Ideas are born in the stress and pang of circumstances that would never see the light in ordinary times. Just as there are men for an emerg- ency when the emergency arrives, so there are latent ideas waiting to find expression in material form when the hour is ripe and ready for them. A nation that could build the vast fotil a of wooden vessels that were available in a few weeks for use against the south in the sixties can be relied upon to think up" the most novel and in genious methods of waging war now. If existing methods prove unsatisfac- tory, if present armaments show them selves too weak and ineffective for the crisis, we shall behold new means of attack and defence elaborated in un- expected places. And the world will get the benefit of these, whatever they are War is a terrible thing Nobody, even those who are eager for it, will deny that. But it has it's uses, and if we go to war with Spain we may give the world a most important lesson in the value or lack of value of many forms of their military equipment. It will be a costly lesson for us, but that is another story.

The Spanish in Havana point with pride to the fact that after the disas- ter to the Maine "no dead fish were found in the water" which would have been the result had the explosion been underneath the vessel. That is good enough as far as it goes. Those who know say there are no fish in the har- bor, with the exception of sharks, which are symbolical of the Spanish character. No self respecting fish would take up his home in such a foul body of water as the Havana harbOr.

THE DEFENDANTS PLEADING.

In a rural district in the west of Eng
 land there lived an eccentric old farm CT, who was continually appearing be- fore the magistrates for allowing his cattle to stray on the highway. During the hearing of his case for a similar of fense upon the last occasion he elicited much laughter from the presiding "gen- tlemen on the bench" and others. The chairman, addressing the defendant, asked: Do you plead guilty or not guilty?" "Well, yer 'onor, I expects as I be guilty, but don't be too hard on a reg'lar customer Spare Moments.

German orchard owners demand the total exclusion of American apples from their country as a means Of pro tecting the cider business. The idea that American apples are imported in to Germany and made into cider is somewhat too preposterous for serious consideration. To subject such su- perior fruit to such base uses would be as wicked as making hash out of canvas-back ducks.

Conservatives Carry Ontario Province
After Twenty-Five Years.
Toronto, March General elections
for the Ontario legislature took place
throughout the province yesterday,
and resulted in a virtual, if not an
actual defeat for the Liberal govern
ment, which has held power for more
than 25 years. The contest has been
exciting, the Conservative leader, J.
=. Whitney, being a young man and a
new leader, while A. S. Hardy, the
premier was the successor of Sir oliver
Mowatt, now lieutenant governor Of
Ontario.
The complexion of the last house
was: Liberals, SO; Conservatives. "a;
Patrons of Industry, IA; Independents,
3, The Patrons have been practically a
branch of the Liberal party, so that
the government has had a majority Of
thirty or more. The returns indicate
a great revulsion of feeling. In the
"a constituencies elections took place
yesterday in SO, the other being post
poned, In all but two or three COM
plete returns are in, with the follow
ing results: Conservatives elected, 46;
Liberals, "A; in doubt, 3. The proba-
bilities favor a slight Conservative ma
jority. Two cabinet ministers have
been defeated, John Dryden, minister
of agriculture, and j. NJ. Gibson, COM
missioner of crowd lands.
The result is a surprise to the sup
porters of the government. The timber
policy of the administration, which ia
alleged to have favored Michigan lum.

had much to do with Premier Hardy's
defeat. Toronto returned four Con-
