WORSHIP OF SHAKERS.
They Stately March In Twos to .he
Singing Of Their Hymns.

Singing Of Their Hymns.
sabbath worship Is usually conduct
ed at the public church, where visitors
from the world are free to attend
writes Madeline S. Bridges of the Shak-
ers of Mt. Lebanon, New York. in the
Ladies' Home Journal. -Four sisters
and four brethren stand in the center OF
the room and form n double quartet.
The Shaker dance. so miscalled, Is in
reality n more or less stately march,
In which all the members join-the
brethren In n procession, two by two.
followed by the sisterhood in like Or
der. They move in step to the hymns
they are singing. either slowly or
quickly. as the measure of the time de-
mands. The ritual is Of the simplest:
Testimony of faith fervently uttered
by those who feel impelled to speak. a
few earnest words OF eXhortation from
the elders. the march and the singing
of hymns.
Something curious in regard to these
Shaker hymns is the fact that they
are claimed to be largely inspirational
the music and words come together
'as gifts and frequently to those who
are not musical. For instance, very
often n tap will sound on the door Of
n musical sister. and an unmusical SIS
ter will enter with the announcement,
Sister. song has just come to me
Can you take the words. and note 1t for
me?'"

SPAIN'S FATAL FOLLY
RESISTING THE INEVITABLE.
After Less Than Two Months of War Her
Resources Are Exhausted, whiio Her
Antagonist Is Calming Strength and
Influence.

Washington, ID. c., June 22.-After
two months of actual war Spain's re-
sources are almost exhausted, and she
Is forced to vital cXtrcmities In order
to continue her desperate resistance.
The United States on the other hand.
after destroying more than three
fourths of the encmy's navy and cut
ting Off all those colonies which the
Spaniards have found so lucrative, Is
entering upon n career which must
place the American republic II long
step forward in political influence and
commercial supremacy.
The rapid development of the war
from mere Intervention upon humane
grounds for the liberation of Cuba has
already been expanded through the I'M
foresecn responsibilities ncccsstated
by Admiral Dewcy's brilliant achieve
ment In the far east. This. perhaps.
renders imperative the permanent
maintenance of American guardian
ship over the Philippine group, and, In
the opinion of statesmen in Washing
ton. conpcls the immediate acquisition
of Hawaii and the prompt undertaking
of the construction of an isthmian ship
canal.
The false and foolish pride of Spain's
ruling politicians. who have, resented
mediation. promises to force the Unit
ed Statcs to incur the additional ey-
pense of occupying Porto Rico. and
perhaps scizing the Canaries TO force
the vanIuishcd to any terms of peace.
Perhaps the most remarkable devel-
Opmcnt of the brief duration of war
operations is shown In the attitude of
the solid commercial interests. The

AMERICAS NEW WAR PHRASE
Twenty Minuets for breakfast" May
Rank with Other uI.torIc Words.

Twenty Minucts for breakfast" May
Rank with Other Historic Words.
Not one of all the tribe of railway
porters who ever shouted Twenty min
utes for breakfast" into the rear door
of Pullman sleeping car ever expect
ed that his cry should be repeated on
the deck Of warship in action. But
that is what seems to have actually hap
pened in the record breaking battle of
Manila. At the same time the fight
was the hottest, when the Spanish
ships were yet undestroyed and the
batteries on shore were still alive, the
American ships ceased firing and with
drew. The first reports had it that 1t
was for the purpose of repairing the
ships, to hold council of war and to
land the wounded from the American
ships. The later report states the truth
with Anglo-SaXon frankness-it was to
give the men chance to get something
to eat.
So new war cry has been added to
American history, and alongside of
Lawrence's Don't give up the ship!"
and Perry's I'VE have met the enemy
and they are ours!" will live Dewey's
Twenty minutes for breakfast" It is
great commander, commander of
very much more than ordinary ability,
who, in the midst of great naval
combat whose issue was still undecid-
ed. could remember that fighting is
hungry work and that men are strong
est and most intelligent when well fed.
History records the deeds of heroes
who, in the excitement of battle, have
forgotten fatigue and wounds and hum
ger and all other considerations. But
history has no record of such a battle
as that at Manila, and no record of a
commander who stopped in the middle
OF battle to get breakfast. The two
facts are not onnected.-Colorado

Part of one summer President ana

from Aunt Charlotte. 1t was sight
that delighted the old colored woman
to see the first lady Of the land walking
up the lane. her gown covered with u
long gingham apron. and carrying a
white umbrella to shield her from the
sun. Aunt Charlotte would execute
a series Of profound curtsies. and her
face would glow with Joy as Mrs. Cleve-
land approached. Then the first lady
OF the land would peel silver-skinned
onions. slice tomatoes or chop cabbage
for pickles. Or she might be seen
standing over glowing brazier OF
charcoal (for these preserves were made
in real old Virginia style), armed with
long wooden spoon. stirring kettle
of peaches to prevent their burning, as

 We are frequently asked to state the prices of cattle at this point. There has been hardly sufficient trading to crys- tallize prices as yet. Several stock men of the district tributary to Will cox have had offers of SIS for their yearling steers, but the asking price ranges from s19 to $21. Stock cattle of good quality are generally held at s20, though we have heard of one herd that is offered at $1S.-Range News.
 By the list of total shipments pub lished it will be seen that Wilcox en- joys the distinction of being the cham pion shipping point in the territory. The number of cattle shipped from there to points outside of the territory in 1897 was 37,292; from Tucson, 36,- 795; from Bisbee 26,997, Phoenix H. 591; Geronimo and Holbrook almost 10000 each. It needs but a casual glance at the list to convince one of the fact that the great bulk of cattle shipments are from the southeastern quarter of the territory.-Range News.
 In his trip through Arizona Dr. T. B. Comstock ran across several old time Venturans. He found Charley and John Barnett, the former in Phoe- nix and acting as deputy county re- corder. John Barnett is running a prosperous drug store at Mesa. L. D. Chillson is doing we'll as an engineer in Tucson. Grosetta is one of the richest men in that town, and Capt. Johnson, formerly in the hotel busi ness at Ventura, Cal, recently died at Tucson. He had been in the hotel business business there. His son, Mack Johnson, is also at that place. The doctor says all the former Ven turans he met in the territory seem to be doing we'll.
