Victim of the Terrible Heat.

Word comes from Wolsey's Tanks, sixty miles west of Phoenix on the road to Agua Caliente, that on Wednesday, June 29, George H. Eldredge. who was on his way overland from Yuma to Phoenix, had discovered the body of an unknown man three miles west of the tanks.
 The particulars as given fail to dis close the dead mans identity. The body when found was lying at the road side, where the man had evidently camped as blanket had been stretched up for shade. The camp had the ap- pearance of having been occupied for two or three days. Two or three emp ty bottles were near at hand and it is supposed that the man in attempting to cross the desert had succumbed to the intense heat and thirst. Ga- Zette.

Flagstaff Sheepman in Kansas City.

J. M. Kilgour, an extensive sheep man of Flagstaff, Ariz., had. 909 head of sheep here yestesday that sold to Swift at $40. They were straight grassers right of the mountains and were fine bunch of sheep, averaging little over 1O7 lbs. They were older than the usual consignments from that section, ranging ffom to , years old. The price obtained, S4.7O, was the highest ever paid on this market for straight grass sheep from that section of the country. Mr. Kilgour was very well pleased with the sale and ever,- thing else around the yards, excepting the hot weather. Kansas City's sum- mer weather is usually very noticeable to the mountain shippers. Yesterdays consignment was Mir. Kilgour's first shipment, having sold his sheep to shippers at home heretofore. Kansas City Stock Growers Telegram.
 Mir. KilgOur returned to Flagstaff Monday morning.

Father and Son.

Christian Cline, SS years of age, whose wife died at their home eight miles in the country, came into Phoenix Friday morning to attend the funeral and brought his son with him. He spoke of his son, who is 64 years old, as his his ''boy." The men journeyed out six miles into the country with the fu- neral, then came back to the city and selected monument. The old gentle man had his wife's name, age, etc., put on one side and his own name, age, birth place, etc, on the other, but leaving blank the space for the date of his death. He then returned home with his ''boy." This journey of near ly 30 miles was certainly quite trip for the old gentleman to take. He and his wife came to this country over 20 years ago from Indiana. Mrs. Cline was 84 years old when she died. Gazette.

SOME FRIENDLY CRITICISM,

Even though we may not have the see us, it is occasionally interesting to hear or read how others do see us. There is a weekly paper published in Madrid called La Illustration Espanola y Americana. It is devoted to "a review of fine arts, literature and current events"-a kind of Journal of civiliza- tion,'' as it were. In recent issue it devotes two full pages of text and page of illustrations to ''los Norteamer- l icanos," or, as they are often mildly referred to, the pueblo yankees" This is the way we appear to the learned and unpreiudiced writer of the article: Eternal traders, who try to legitimatize their piracies, hiding the hand with which they rob beneath the Bible, interpreted to their taste, they speak to-day, even while flinging at us the threat of war, of Christian duties and humanity! They, the hangmen of
  the capitulating garrison of Fort Pill low! The authors of the prison mas sacres of Andersonville and Salisbury! The heroes of the carnage of the Shen- andoah Valley; the incendiaries, free booters and wild beasts who distin- guished themselves in the destruction of Columbia, of Atlanta and of Rich mond; the comrades of General Butler, who treated the ladies of New Orleans as public women; the destroyers of Texas, where they surpassed in bar parity any outrage attributed to the in- quisition! Those men who left to per- ish 13,000 prisoners in the Tennessee out of 30,0O0 heaped together in con- tracted space; who adorned their camps with 2,500 corpses of men, hang ed without form of trial; the extermin- ators and usurpers of the Mexican do- minions; the enthusiasts for the law of Lynch; the same men who swept away in surges of blood the native sioux, vintas, Navajdes, whitemountains and cheyennos," penning them up like sheen far from all contact with the world af- ter having decimated them; they who treat not like men but like stinking' dogs the negro race which peoples the | southern States; who permitted the 
 rule of the ku-klux-klan with all it's horrors-these people having national history so brief in time, so stained with abominations-with their Bible trans lated into yankee dialect, into "argot

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL R4LIY.

If the weather does not interfere with the Sunday School rally this afternoon the beautiful and historic old Green will present a most interesting and inn pressive sight. There will be gathered, in patriotic harmony, scholars of Con- gregational Methodist Episcopal, Bap- tist, Presbyterian, Roman Catholic,
 Lutheran and Jewish Sunday schools. | These scholars will march to ''the mu- sic of the Union,'' and at the head of their line will be veterans of the
 Grand Army, who marched to that mu-
 sic in the brave days of old when it called them to strife, even as it is now l calling the new volunteers.
 This will be the second Sunday School rally on Memorial Day in this city, and it is to be hoped that it will prove an incentive to the perpetuation | and growth of what is a most appro- priate and inspiring thing. It is good for the Sunday school scholars of all 1 denominations to get together at least l once a year. They are all headed for l the same Heaven, and it will benefit | them to mingle and march with each 1 other on earth. And it will especially | benefit them to come together on Mam-
 orial Day, a day devoted to memory l
 and honor of patriots and patriotic \ deeds, and to the stirring and increase | of patriotic feeling. The Sunday | Schools are engaged in fitting their pu-
 pills to be good citizens here as well as
 worthy dwellers in Heaven. Patriotism | is vital requirement.. of good citizen ship. How can Sunday School scholars
 of any age and all ages have more im-
 pressive teaching in patriotism than that which will be given those who as- | semble to-day on the Green? ! Success to and good weather for the
 second Sunday School rally! May it inspire all who take part in it and all
 who see it with a deeper realization of human brotherhood and more fervent
 admiration of the Star Spangled Ban- | ner

THE REGUL1R.

The regular Sunday yarn was lit-
 tie late, but it got around. This time
 it came from Madrid, and it reached
 there from Paris. 1t was almost as thrilling as the first Spanish reports of what happened at Manila one Sun
 day and quite like 1t. It gave a rather circumstantial account of an alleged
 battle near Jamaica, in which two American ships were destroyed and one Spanish warship was injured, slightly, of course.
 The naval officials at Washington
 say that there is no truth in this story,
 which leaves it with the other Sunday stories in which there was no truth.
 There has been no truth in anything for long time now, so long that peo- pie will be surprised when some truth does come and they will be slow to be-
 lieve it. There isn't even enough truth
 to make extras sell, and the big tree headlines grow blacl1er and bigger in vain. It is hard to see what "the vel
 lows" will do when they have some thing really true and important to pub fish. Perhaps they will issue an extra | devoted wholly to the headlines, with the exception of a very small-type an-
 nouncement that the news will be along | in the next extra.

crying out for home and mother, 1t would seem as if nothing in the way of moisture could dampen their spir- it's or patriotism. If without adequate preparation they have endured uninter- rupted soalSings without injury to health or limb, then let Cuba come on with it's swamps, it's levers and it's rat tlesnakes! These things will be con- temptible trifies for the well-soaked hero of Mystic. This view of the rain is still further to be recommended be- cause it puts Providence on the side or war and on our side of the war. This view should be recommended to the patriotic clergy of all denominations. Why should not the other view also! If they propose praying for rain, let them pray that it may be continued, not only until the boys in blue are per- fectly seasoned, but also until clear view of the situation has been ralned into the mind of every civilian; uptll he can recognize exactly what are his duties, and how he can best perform them. A silent drizzle is provocative of thought. During a downpour you are not apt to be carried off your feet by a blaze of patriotism. The ram will put out the blaze.
 People who opposed the war because they thought it unjust must not con tinue to say so. The war has com menced. The whole nation is commit ted to it. It is the duty of every citl- zen to support the warlike policy Of the government with all bis might and main and in every possible way Tn which he may assist. When there is pause in actual hostilities and there appears chance for peace, then the peaceful may pipe up his plaintive lay. But let there be no reference to the past. No T. told you so!' will be toll erated in defeat or in victory. The
 wrongs, if there be wrongs, of ones
 country's committing will be forgotten
 by the patriot and must be forgotten by the polite. The theory that the country can do no wrong is a good one and thoroughly democratic one. It subordinates private judgment to the judgment of the majority. A man who goes against his country is sure to be going wrong. If he go with his coun- try he may be going wrong, but he IS going in good company. To sit still and
 realize age while youth rushes by
 aglow with patriotism, noble ambition filling his soul and blazing in his eye
 is hard enough without distrusting his leaders. Let every word, said or writ ten, vibrate with encouragement, tin gle with sympathy. War is awful, but it alone develops heroic courage. It Is cruel, but it produces the noblest self
 sacrifice. It furnishes occasion for the highest virtues to which humanity car attain. Such are the thoughts of g rainy day. When it rains, let 1t rain. FERNANDEZ. New Haven, May 2S, 1898.

| most comfortable. About half-yard wide and two yards long, they are ad- I justed just as the old time stock used | to be, though the girl whose neck is too
 short to alolw her stock to stand up of | itself may have to wear plain stock collar under the folds of the scarf. It | is permitted to knot the scarf in any l way you like in front and the pretty old fashion of putting the ends of the neck scarf through ring is returning,
 so once more the girl will wear the ring that is too big for her finger on
 her scarf. String ties of white taffeta will also be used to match the shirt
 waist, and these are worn with the
 usual linen collar. Unless linen is l worn at the neck, linen should not be
 worn at the cuffs.
 1 While these severely finished taffeta l shirt waists are to be abundant. that fact does not withdraw taffeta from
 the list of available materials for
 elaborate waists. Taffeta is in such favor now that it is suitable for almost
 anything, and dressy bodices in it are l far from few. The newest and most fashionable eolors are all found in taf- feta weaves, so it has ultra-stvlish, as l well as popular endorsement. Pic
 tured here is a white taffeta bodice that for daintiness would be hard to equal.
 It was covered with white chiffon that | was gathered at neck and waist, and
 was trimmed with bands of embroid-
 cred chiffon, each band edged on both
 sides with chiffon friilings. Three of
 these bands encircled the bodice and
 met in front in a soft knot. Epaulettes
 and cuffs were of the embroidered chif- l ion, and the sleeves were shirred on
 the outside. White taffeta gave collar
 and belt the former edged with a wide | chiffon frill. This model would be very
 handsome, too, if colored taffeta was | used. FLORETTE.

White Waists Plain or Fancifu

White taffeta shirt waists have a cool and fresh look, and no summer wardrobe can be counted complete without change of such. They are to be made as severely as white cheviot,
 with narrow cuffs inside of which the linen cuff may or may not be placed, and the neck band may or may not take a linen collar In any case, the waist must be made with it's own taf- feta stock scarf. These scarfs are

The Washington Star says that a number of scientists connected with the National Museum and the Smith, sonian Institute may go to the Philip pine Islands this summer. One of them is thus quoted: ''All of the Philippines are spots which can supply much which would be most attractive for our purposes and the public in general. I think by the scientists cooperating with the troops, as it were, the best re- suits would be undoubtedly attained. The natives are amicably disposed to- ward us, and would, am certain, rem der valuable assistance. By sending an expedition at the present time much of the cost necessary to one if it would go under any other circumstances would be done away with Even if the United States should not hold the isl- ands the collections would greatly en- rich us" A man from every branch would probably be included in the ex- petition, including an ethnologist, a botanist, a geologist, and so on, so that all the ground could be fully covered.
