 Territory vs. James Parker, con victed and sentenced to hang by the district court of Yavapai county for the murder of Lee Norris last year.

Thin are the blue-clad ranks today, once half
million strong,
And slow and feeble are the feet that once
marched far and long;
once more together they VIII march with
slow, uncertain tramp,
To see their comrades who have gone before
them into camp.
The tents are spread-the low, green tents
whose curtains tightly close;
No reveille will waken those who sweetly
here repose;
No more their weary feet will toll DER high.
ways rough and damp
For them the long, hard march IS done, for
they've gone into camp.
Their comrades come with songs and flowers
the banner of their love
Floats proudly out upon the air, their low,
close tents above;
All, many mile they followed It with strong
and steady tramp
Before they heard the order given-"Break
ranks-go into camp"
Soon all the weary feet will halt, the last
march win be made,
For them the low, green tents be spread OF
hillside or on glade;
No more together they will march with slow
and broken tramp
To all the order will be given: "Breal
ranks-go into camp"

CITY OF THE FUTURE.

VIII BE Located in the Foothills of Noun
tains Near the Great Waterfalls.
Scientists believe that we are on the
verge of the electric age, and that the
consequences of the coming changes in
industrial processes will be wide reaching.
At present most of the great cities of
the civilized world are either actually
at the sea coast or on navigable waters
or on the fiat land near the sea, and the
situation of industrial cities is fixed ap
proXimately by their nearness to coal
and iron. New York and Chicago are
of course examples of the first class,
Pttsburg and Birmingham, Ala, of the
second.
But coal will continue to become
harder to get and more costly to bring
to the consumer. 1t is already so eX-
pensive in England that the cost of pig
iron is greater than in Alabama, where
there is still cheap coal. Electrical
transmission of water power will group
the great cities of the world near its
large waterfalls. w. II. Mullin in Cas-
sells magazine reckons that a city of
$4,000, 900 inhabitants could theoreti-
cally get all its needed power from
Niagara alone and live within the radius
of transmission.
Similar cities might cluster around
the falls of the Zambezi in Africa, and,
but for the climate, about the great falls
of Labrador.
In such a Encouragement of the worlds
work the rough, mountainous districts
which are now sparsely peopled would
become centers of civilization and in
dustry.
The human race, optimists say, will
be healthier far when its cities are sit
uated in the foothills of the mountains
instead of the fiat land by the sea or
lakes. The air is better, the possibili-
ties for drainage better, and, most i'm
portant of all, the problem of securing
a pure water supply will be very much
less difficult. Dlphtheria and pneumo-
mia will be less prevalent; consumption,
which is most common at sea level, will
rapidly decrease, and typhoid fever be-
come almost unknown.

GALL 1T A SPY LIST.
American Detectives Steal Important
Letter from Senior DuBosc.


A letter, said to contain the names
of the Spanish spies in the United
States, has been abstracted from the
house where Lieut.. Carranza, Senor Du
Bose and the other members of the
Spanish secret service live In Montreal.
1t was secured by United States secret
service agent. Carranza and his asso-
ciates are moving heaven and earth to
regain it and have offered immense re-
wards; but it Is gone.
The entire city detective force are
working on the case, for it is understood
that until they are ordered out of Canada
the Spaniards must be protected. Joseph
Kellert, chief of the metropolitan detec-
tive service, suspected of being in the
employ of the United States, has been
arrested. His office and house have
been searched, but no letter has been
found. He denies knowledge of the
affair, and will sue the Spaniards for
$4,000. 1t is supposed that he looks
like the United States detective who got
the letter.
The man who stole the letter evidently
watched his chance when the Spaniards
were out. He came to the house accom-
panied by an order from Mr.. Simpson,
the agent for the house, and was let
in by one of the servants, who allowed
him to look through it, He stayed only
ten minutes.
When the Spaniards returned the let
ter was gone. Carranza rushed down in
a cab to see II. G. st. Pierre, who has
been acting as the Spanish lawyer. He
fought in the war of the rebellion and
was prisoner of war. He put the city
detective officers on the case.
From descriptions they thought the
man was Kellert, but he says: I'll did not
do it, but would be eproud if | had done it,
1t was a great piece of work in a good
cause" \

In spite of the threatening weather
which marked the whole of Monday, a
very large number of people from the
surrounding country and villages were
In Middlebury to help in the observance
of Memorial day. The program was
carried out in full. The civic organiza-
tlons which took part in the procession
to the cemetery made fine appearance.
The opera house was crowded to hear
that part of the program contained in
the G. a. r. ritual and the address of
the day by Rev. j. G. GOoding. The
opera house stage was decorated with
flags, palms, ferns and lowering plants,
and pictures of Lincoln and Admiral
Dewey were conspicuously displayed.
A very large number of residences and
business houses were decorated with the
national emblem in honor of the day.
The beautiful exercises at the cemetery
took place after the public speaking in
the opera house, procession forming
and marching to the burying ground
for that purpose.

Coupled with the Vienna report tina.
Spain is trying to prevail upon the
European powers to request the Ameri-
can government to occupy Manila with
American troops when the town surren-
ders to the insurgents. in order to pre-
vent atrocities; is the official report from
Admiral Sampson that the bodies OF our
marines killed at Guantanamo, Cuba,
were barbarously mutilated by the
Spanish soldiers. It is unnecessary for
Spain to request the European powers
to prevail upon the United States forces
to prevent atrocities being committed
In their, presence. Spain should know
by this time that the impelling motive
for the declaration OF war by the United
States was the humane desire to put an
end TO atrocities committed by Spain II
self, or at least in the name OF the Spar-
ish government. European influence Is
unnecessary to remind the United States
that It Is civilized nation, and that
wherever the American flag floats all
the power and the influence of that em-
blem and the forces that back 1t will be
used to promote civilization. This Incl
dent at Guantanamo Indicates the saw
age nature OF the representatives Of
Spain in this war.
The policy pursued in Cuba toward the
helpless -combatants, the cowardly
and atrocious act which sent more than

and especially that which is peculiar TO
the West Indies. From no community
nthe country has a finer body OF men
gone to the front.and It was TO the credit
Of this community, that up to the last
there had been enough applicants bs-
glng for admittance to have formed on
additional company or two.
Most of these young men, like others
who have preceded them into the state
volunteer service. are breaking home
ties in their determination to face hard
ships and death to serve the country.
and the blessings OF loved ones follow
them. Tears are shed, and there will be
anxious hearts until they return. Tears
and anxious hearts In the homes OF the
land are always among the accompani-
ments Of war, but they are the tears
and anxieties OF brave. patriotic hearts.
II It should be the lot OF these men to
experience warfare with all that active
service in the thick OF the fight means,
We shall hear good reports OF Company
F, and Wheeling. and the neighboring
communities that are represented In the
ranks, will have cause to be as proud OF
its achievements as they were OF those
sent to the front in another great war
crisis more than generation ago. Other
companies may yet be called from
Wheeling before, the present war ends,

Chicago Inter- Ocean: A copperhead
sheet in answering what it calls apollo
giles for the administration makes
most amazing argument. 1t holds that
II we are ready for war the army should
move at once to Havana. II we are not
ready for war then the President Is at
fault. II he knew: we were not prepared
for war In April he should have resis:sd
to the bitter end any action looking t.
declaration OF war. AS he did not resis,
we must have been prepared and there
should be an immediate movement on
Havana. sSiit ~
This is the sort OF stuff that passes for
argument with the copperhead press.
Every one knew that We were not re-
pared for war In April. But before the
formal declaration OF war was issued
preparations were we'll on the way and
these have been pushed with an energy
and effectiveness never before witnessed
In this country. Only two classes have
urged the invasion of Cuba in the rainy
season by tunacclimated and unframed
troops-the Spanlards and the copper
heads. It would have suited the Span
lards IL, the United States cad thrown
volunteers fresh from home life Into
Cuba to perish of disease or TO make in
effective attacks on Spanish soldiers in
fortified camps. 1t might have suited
the copperheads TO have American SOL
diers die by thousands In Cuba so that
a point might be made against the ad-
minlstration.
But neither copperheals nor Span!ards
have had their way. A careful effort has
been made to acclimate both regulars
and volunteers to tropical climate.
Regulars have been ordered 10 Cuba and
volunteers are almost In readiness 10 so.
The government will not be hurried iato
useless sacrifice of life or into cam
paign with unframed and Improperly
equipped troops. Every one knows that
we were not ready for war In April. but
every one who has eyes knows that In
two months we have accomplished wor-
ders in the way Of preparation.
