MENELIK IS MAD.
As a sample OF the creditbility attacha-
bic to the various rumors in circulation,
the British admiralty explicitly denies
the accuracy of the reports circulated
hereon Thursday lasta to the strength
ening of the navy by 5000 men: 1000 adj
ditional stokers 10 be engaged during the
present quarter and the immediate COM
missioning Of the reserve first-class bat
tleship Hannibal, now at Portsmoth.
As usual, there is every explanation OF
the sudden rush of British troops to
Egypt--except the right one. What really
seems TO have happened is that Colonel
Parsons while en- route to take over Kas-
sala from the Italians found King Meme
Xix of Abyssinia in the greatest state Of
wrath at the surrender OF the town (Which
his Majesty regarded as part Of his do
main) to the Egyptians. and he was mo-
blizing an army with the intention OF
asserting his authority. If King Menelik
should be acting. as suspected. in concert
with the Mahdi the danger OF the situa-
tion il greatly enhanced especially If
there is truth in the stories which are
leaking out just now of the existence Of
dissatisfaction among General Herbert
Kitchener's Soudanese and the reported
lack of backbone shown by the Egyptians
during the last operations.
IL is rumored that Emperor Francis
Joseph of Austria will shortly announce
the betrothal of the Arch-Duchess Eliz-
abeth. daughter of the late Crown Prince
Rudolf to che King OF Spain.

Two Pointed Questions Answered.

Two Pointed Questions Answered.
What is the use of making a better
article than your competitor if you
cannot get a better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in
the price the public will bny only the
better, so that while our profits may
be smaller on a single sale they will
be much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to
know your make is the best?
Ans.-If both articles are brought
prominently before the public both
are certain to be tried, and the pub
lie will very quickly pass Judgment
on them and use only the better one.
This explains the large sale of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. The
people have been using it for years
and have found that it can always
be depended upon. They may occa-
sionally take up with some fashion

ated claims, but are certain to return

result is Brantley's election by Isl
majority over Pemberton.
The total vote cast for the state

PEACE
Spaniards Finally Submit and
g. Affix Their Signatures.
Cuba Secured for the Cubans and
Porto Rico, the Philippines and
Guam For The United
States.

Paris, December 1O.-The treaty of
peace was signed at S:45 this after
noon, the treaty as signed, consists
of seventeen articles, it having been
found advisable to subdivide two
or three of the articles in the draft
agreed upon at the last meeting.
The commissioners of the two ma
tions wrote their signatures on two
copies OF the treaty, one copy being
of the archives. The document was
prepared by Secretary Moore, on be-
half of the United States commission
and by Senior Villaratia for Spain, or
account of the continued illness of
Secretary Ojeda, of the Spanish COM
mission. Each copy contains the
English and Spanish texts of the
treaty in parallel columns, the word
ing having been approved previously
by the commissions without a joint
meeting, so there was no controversy
on this point. There has been a
great contest among the families OF
the American commissioners for the
possession of the pens with which
the signatures to the treaty were
written. Some of the Americans
were provided with handsome pens,
purchased for the purpose. The
Spaniards appear to be unaffected by
the souvenir craze. and contented
themselves with the ordinary quill
pens strewn on the tables. Both
e tied with Spanish and Ameri-
car colors. When the seals were
prepared to be affixed, attendants
were sent scurrying for ribbons of
the French tri-color with which the
documents were sealed, as a compli-
ment to the French hosts of the
commissions. Many officials in
terestedly watched every detail of
the proceedings. The last seal being
impressed, the commissioners rose,
and without formaiity each shook
the hands of his antagonists and ex-
changed assurances of personal es-
TEEN. The Spaniards afterwards
commented acridly upon what they
termed the bad taste of the Ameri-
cans in mastering a corpse of at
taches to gloat over the cOnsumma-
ton of their downfall and to scram-
BILE for relics. The signing was
finished at S:45.

ARIZONA'S OUTPUT.
Mineral Product of the Terri
 tory For 1897.

The mineral production of Arizona for 1897, cave in the item of silver, exceeds that of the previous year. Tho years products are approximate, but are compiled rom the mos, au- thetic in formation: Gold, S4, ,l36,OG0. The product was mainly in form of concentrates of rehel.ious ores shipped elsewhere for reduction. The main producers were the mines at Congress, Fort Una, Bradshaw m un- tsius and Pesrcp. Placer mines p:e~ duced dust to the value of S3O0, 900, and about a similar value of bu!Ion was eecured from the cyanid- plants in operation on the dumps of old mills. The silver yeld Wa l, 24o, COG ounces, mainly secured as Q by Iro- duct in the reductisn of golf and copper eres. Tho leai output secured in continuation with silver WAS SSS, 600 pound-. Tie ppsr product wes about 6I,2SO,00O pounds, almost en- tirely from the works of the United Verde at Jerome, the Copper Queen at Bissee, and the Arizona works at Clifton. At those works there has been a large increase of product, more thsn com ponssting for the temporary closing of the furnaces at Globe and Morenci. livery important copper company in the Territory is preparing for active operations, and the general estimate is that the output for 1898 will exceed 100000, ,060 pounds.
