"aoVERNMENT LOTTERIES"
An Item of Public Revenue in Many Coun

An Item of Public Revenue in Many Coun-
~trieB-Spain'S Great Expectations.
In the Prussian budget Of receipts and ex-
penses for Is one item which must seem
rather unusual to American flnanciers-82.-
100000 marks the equivalent OF about$ 500, 000.-
000) from authorized Government lotteries.
In Prussia the lottery is operated under the
direct authority Of the State. There are a
number of prizes Of 500. 900 marks. and IL is an
annual affair In the line OF revenue raising.
In Italy this year in the annual budget for 1898
was the item Of revenue 05. 900. 900 lire from
lotteries. about equivalent to $13.0 900 in
American money. and 1t Is somewhat curious
that in nearly every country OF Europe, with the
exception of France and Belgium. lotteries as a
means Of revenue raising are the rule rather
than the exception.
Denmark made last year a profit on its lot
teries-a net profit over and above expenses
of 100000 crowns. equivalent to about $780,
900. In Holland. too. there is q State lottery,
the net proceeds of which are figured each year
at $500 guilders. orabout 100000. Portu-
gal Is another European country which recruits
Its revenues from this source. In the year
1897 the Portuguese lottery gained 1.750.0 900
milreis NEARLY $2.000.OOOl. But Portugal has
at least some justification In its adherence TO
lotteries by reason OF the fact that the finances
OF that country are in an unsettled condition,
that creditors are pressing against 1t. and that
the expenditures have. for a number OF years.
exceeded considerably the revenues.
Inthe European countries lotteries are State
monopolies. as much as the sale Of stamps or
OF cigars and tobacco. and the Government
makes usually q considerable profit from them.
The Spaniards arc great believers In the ad-
vantages offered by lotteries. and the financial

will be turned over to the Government for It's
needs; CIRCULARS are being sent out, and 1t Is

600 pcsetas each.

BoRRoWE ON THE TROLLEY LINE
How the Workmon Learned to FORGET That
He Smoked Egyptian Cigarettes.

When Hallett Alsop Borrowe went to Newark
N. j.. a few years ago to become the division
superintendent OF a trolley line, there was n
strong sentiment against him. 1t was not con-
fined to the other officers OF the road. but was
shared by conductors, motormen, car cleaners
and even inspectors and spoilers. They re.
Rarded him as a dude because he smoked
Egyptian cigarettes and had q valet. He was
an object OF ridlcule for a while. 1t was NOT
open ridicule because OF his size and reputa-
ton.
Borrowe did not seek a fashionable boarding
house. as he was expected to do. nor did he look
for q quiet place In the suburbs. He evidently
had made up his mind to buckle down TO work.
and he ftted up a suite OF three rooms I'm the
pig car barn on the plank road. One was for
MS man. another for himself. and the third con-
tanned q gas stove and a Tefrj gerator. BorroWe
ate and slept and spent much OF his leisure In
the rooms, His man was an excellent cooS and
the gas stove did wonders in the preparation of
chops, steaks. omelcts. aud rarebits. Once in n
while ne entertained a friend In a small way.
but usually dined alone. '
1t was observed that Borrowe had nut ON hia
working clothes and was taking a strong hand
In running the road. He worked as hard az
any OF them when there was trouble on
found, him driving eight horses to a snow,
plough or ankle deep in water during a thaw.
IN hls ruDber coat and hat he became a famii-
lar nsure al along the line in stormy weather.
and everybody found that he was not inclined

HORSE CARS As HOUSES.
They Form HEbitations for q Tribe of Now
jersey GypSieS-Cost o. Each.

OoEboy OJpbiob-SObt ~ EAon.
Between Elizabeth and Newark is q strip of
lowland that borders on the trolley line. As IL
is not an especially desirable piece OF property,
its owner was more than delighted one day
when a swarthy customer appeared and offered
a good round sum for the land. A bargain was
quickly concluded.
The dark stranger was the chief OF a tribe Of
gypsles that has since that time camped regu-
larry twice a year on the ground. The Rypsies
pay the taxes promptly and leave the place In
passably clean condition when they wander of
on their tours to other parts OF the country.
Probably they are the only tribe In the East
that are owners OF property to which they regu-
larly return. Until last spring they all lived In
tents and caravans. At that time there was ad-
vertised for sale at So a piece a number OF the
old New York horse cars. The gypsies re-
garded them in the light OF bargains. and soon
two of these cars were rolled out on their land.
They placed them side by side. and have since
lifted them up to make comfortable and neat
little homes. In one the women and children
live. while the other is the abode OF their queen,
In a partitioned-of part OF the car the queen
sells for five cents a glass OF lemonade or root
Probable this Queen has never before had 40

now affords her. The seats have been re-
moved, and an attempt at decoration has been

Help the Indians.
IFrOm the Phoenl1 Rnterprise.l

The most likely plan that would
 engage the attention Of congress in be- half of the arid west is to secure the construction of reservoirs to supply the Indians with water. The Pimas,
 Maricopas and Papagoes are good farmers. On the Salt River reserva- ton just above Tempe there are 75, 900 acres of irrigable land; on the Gila River reservation there are at least lzo,OO0 acres. Both these tracts sse irrigated, from the Gila and Salt Rivers. There IS not a surplus to supply the Indians. There are 400 Indians, Pimas and Maricopas on the Salt River reser- vation and 800 Maricopas, most of them on the Gila River reservation. Then there are 2,5C0 Papagoes south of the Southern Pacific railway line. These Indians are excellent farmers, the best workers of any tribe in the territory. They are nomads and have had no lands allotted to them. Should the government make m appropriation and put in the Buttes reservoir or number of smaller dams, these In- dianz would be supplied. They have ever been friends to the whites and have helped them in battle against the Apaches. The Maricopas and Pimns have always been self-supporting and it is no more than right that the gov ernment should come to their aid and solve the water question. The action would incidentally be beneficial to the white man, as well.
