Men and women who have never
known what it is to have an abundance
of the good things of this life, who
have always been engaged in hand to
hand struggle with poverty, sometimes
dream waking dreams in which they
imagine that success has come to them
at last. This always takes the form of
wealth-an inexhaustible bank account
les. But it is open to question whether
there is any real success in the accumu-
lation OF material things. In recent
issue the New York Times recopnts the
llIe story OF resident OF that city who
accumulated several millions during his
lifetime, but who lived in squalor and
misery and died surrounded by quarrel
ing relatives who had not particle of
affection for him and who were anxious
that he might leave the world in order
that they might como into possession Of
his millions. Such . live could scarcely
be called success. A man may not
have any surplus cash; he may find 1t
difficult to make both ends meet, but II
he have roof over his head, true
wife and loving children Of whom he
feels that he may be proud, and II his
conscience " void Of offense toward God
o. man. be y what we would call 9 suc-

1t is pet theory Of various foreign
journals that the war for Cuban free
dom is war of pelf and conquest on the
part of this country: yet the fact is that
the recruiting of troops at $l3 month
has practically killed the rush of young
men to the Klondike, where they could
earn sl3 day and run no yellow fever
chances There's no gold for the SOL
diers in this campaign, but it is brimful
of glory. Philadelphia Record.

The biggest guns in the United States
navy are 40 feet long, big enough for
a man to crawl into: four feet in diam
eter at their largest part, and weigh
1876, 800 pounds, or thereabouts. The
powder used is brown. A charge for
the biggest guns weighs 800 pounds,
and is hoisted to the breech by der

burlap bags. 1t costs $500 every time

! The Sunday School Times in an edi-
brial on "The Uplifting Power of
food Opinion" says: "It is better to be-
1ieve that man may be better than he
seems, than to suspect him of being
worse than he is. What he really is
we can never fully know; what he
seems to be is not, in this life, what he
fully is. At best we do not see more
than a fraction Of any man. His ideals,
his best yearnings are in a large part
invisible to the world; his resistance of
temptations is carried on in strict pri-
vacy, and his noblest triumphs forever
hold their own secret. And yet we
play a large part in this submerged
conduct of our neigbbor His Godward
aspirations and resistance power against
evil are both strengthened by our be-
lieving him to be better than we see
him; his liability to fall is increased by
our suspicion that he is weaker or
worse than he really is. Suspecting a
man helps to make HIM worthy Of sus-
picion; trusting him begets in him
trustworthiness. respecting him raises
him toward true responsibility.

1t is just as important to look after
the morals Of a town as it is to look
after commercial interests. Had PUNK
sutawney no churches, no schools, no
society Of any kind where the highest
standard Of morality is taught, there
would be no demand for houses, the
price of properties would depreciate and
business men would soon seek town
where it would be safe for an invest
ment The highest standard of moral
ity that a town can attain makes It that
much more desirable place to live in
and do business in. The person who is
ever on the side of high morals, public
spirited, always fostering and encourage
ing all measures and movements looking
to the advancement of his town and the
state of his people, is a public benefactor
even if he cannot build public libraries,
endow asylums and institutions of learn
ing g.-Punxsutawney Ne,cs.

THE LEASING OF SCHOOL LANDS

A. P. Shewman, superintendent of public instruction, wants to know why more revenue is not received from the leasing of school lands under the law enacted by the last legislature. He says that Maricopa county has contributed S30e0 and the other eleven counties only $500 from this source.
 In regard to Gila county, which has contributed nothing, the matter is easily explained. There is only one section of agricultural school land in the county, in Upper Salt River val ley, only one-half of which is occu- pied. The occupants of this land, Geo. F. Shute, J. II. Livingston and J. Ii. Baker, ,Jr., have made application to the board of supervisors for leases, two of them offering II per cent ard the third per cent of the value of the lands, to be fixed by appraisement. The law fixes ? per cent ss the maxi mum price to be charged for rentals of school lands. The applications have not been acted upon by the super visors for the reason that the expense of making abstracts and appraisements and execution of leases would amount to almost as much as the rentals which would Dc received, leaving an insig- nificant sum as the net revenue from the lands.
 The conditions are probably similar in many other counties in the terri tory, and especially in the mining counties, and doubtless very few ap- plications to lease school lands have been made outside of Maricopa county.

BUILDING or THE RAILROAD TO GLOBE THIS YEAR ASSURED.

F. II. Cook, superintendent of the United Globe Mines, received q letter yesterday from Lieut.. Sedgwick Rice, acting Indian agent at San Carlos, in forming him that Wm. Garland, pres ident of the Gila Valley, Globe & Northern Railroad company, was ex- pected to arrive at San Carlos within few days for the purpose of holding another conference with the Indians to secure the right-of.way across the San Carlos reservation. It is gener- ally believed that the right-of-way matter will be speedily arranged and that construction work on the railroad from Geronimo will begin at an early date, and the road completed to Globe before the close of the present year.
 Mir. Garland will be accompanied by Mir. Hood, chief engineer of the South ern Pacific company, who will care f1lly reconnoiter the route as sur veyed and suggest such changes as are deemed advisable. The gentlemen will come on to Globe to arrange for right-of-way through town and depot facilities. Mir Garland has given assurances that his company will be prepared to begin reconstruction work as soon as the preliminaries have been al ranged.

An Osd Settler.

When the rheumatism first cmpts cer- tain tracts of your anatomy 1t may be busted easily. but when 1t becomes an old settler 1t is pretty hard to budge. Remember this when you experience the first twinges of this ob- stinate and sgonizing disease, and attack it with Hostettcr's Stomach Bitters. It vii then make tracks, and possibly leave you unmo- tested and in peaceable possession of your own comfort ia the future. Peril always attend rheumatism, if 1t becomes chronic, on account of it's tendency to attack the heart. Usually it Is complicated with kidney trouble. Certain 1t is that the kidneys when aroused by the Bitters, will eliminate impurities which give rise to rheumatism and dropsy. In indictment or wet conditions of the weather. the Bitters, taken in advance, will often avert rheumatic trouble. Use this genial family medicine for dyspepsia, bilousness, headache and constipa- pEtiOn.

THE CORONA DISASTER.
Seven People from Globe on the IT,
 fased Steamer All tianGs Saved.

The first information received here of
 the wrsckiug of the steamship
 Corona. bound from Seattle to
 Skaguey, was received inst Setur-
 day night by Mrs. J. H. Thomp-
 son whose husband was passenger on
 the ill-fated vessel The dispatch simply announced the disaster and stated that
 the passengers had all been saved. A second telegram from Norton X Co.,,
 outfitters at Seattle, came on Tuesday,
 giving the further cheering news that
 Mir. Thompson and companions had
 been picked up by another steamer and safely conveyed to Skaguay, that all the baggage on the Corona was saved and nothing lost except the pro- visions. The news created considerable interest amongst the friends of the passengers hailing from Globe, and much satisfaction was expressed that they had escaped with so little loss.
 The Globe party on the Corona con sisted of seven persons, as follows: J.
 H. Thompson, Vim. McDaniel, Jos. Bartson, Thos. Hamilton, Ed Tucker, and Drs. T. $. and J, s. Collins.
 The Corona sailed from Seattle on the morning of Jan. 20, with PAT pas sengers and cargo of TOO tons, to- gether with ten horses and thirty eight dogs. It was tue last trip of the Go roma in Alaskan waters, as she had been ordered withdrawn. One of her reg ulsr pilots had resigned to go with another company, and his place was taken by H. F. Cauffman, first officer, who wes on duty when she struck the rocks.
 The disaster occurred at 5;05 q. m,., on Jan. g, in comparatively smooth water, Tn the Arthcr passage, at the mouth of the Skeena river, 4S0 miles from Victoria. Morning had begun to lawn, aud it was possible to trace the rugged hills on either shore. The fore keel of the Corona struck the reef, and her stern began to settle. There was very little confusion among the passeu | gers; seven boats were lowered, and in two trips all the passengers were safely anded on Lewis island. The saving of | he baggage and part of tie stores les 'ened the suffering of the unfortnnafes, hut gale set in f.om the northeast. accompanied with squalls of snow, fol
 owed on the second day by q heavy | rainstor,n. The shipwrecked people were on the island nearly five days be- fore they were rescued by passing steamers, and all but twenty five of them resumed their journey north
 Late advices are to the effect that the injuries to the Corona are not seri- pms end that there is n possibility of raising her and saving considerable portion of the cargo. Responsibility for the disaster is charged npon Pilot who. it is alleged, ran the vessel two miles out of her course.
