 The wild, relentless fury of the sea is doing more to wind up the giIded career of Coney island than all the combined efforts of the religious puri- fiers.

LITERARY MEN IN PUBLIC LIFE

The prominent part which a profes- sional man of letters has been playing in the sensational trial in Paris recalls the fact that the world owes a debt to it's literary men entirely aside from the debt it owes them for their writings As a rule the writer is not a succ ssful man of affairs. There is a marked distinction between the thinker and the man of action. The former sees too far; he is too keenly aware of pos sible consequences to plunge into the whirl of public enterprise.
 But the opportunity has arisen on several occasions for men of letters to exert their influence upon important questions of public policy, and in a majority of cases this influence has made for moral and political progress. There is the example of Victor Hugo to show what power men of his pro fession can exert in great political crises. France may willingly forget

THE HOUSE THAT CANT BUILT.

Valentine Cant, one of the most solid ranchers and stockmen cn the south side, was born near Chester, Ill.,, in the year 1884. He spent his childhood days going to school. learn ing the science of forming and mould ing a character so broad and sound as to stand the storms and temptations of the battle of life in after years. Reaching the age of majority in 1854, he left his native state and went west. For years he engaged in the mining, farming and stockraising business in the states of California, Oregon and Idaho, winning respect as a gentle man, business man and citizen wher- ever he went. In the early EOS lie came to Arizona, spent some time in- vestigating the territory, and finally in 1892, bought large ranch nine miles south of Tempe. He did not settle on this ranch until 1895, how ever, as the work of adjusting his in terests elsewhere required great deal of time and travelling. When he did settle, he pursued the course identical with himself-that of a builder. The ranch had been cultivated, but had grown to weeds and brush, the land was as rough as nature left it and the ditches reminded MT. Cant of de- parted race. Under the builders di- rection the wrestle with nature be- gan ill earnest. The land was clearad, the old fences rebuilt and new -es the whole place seeded to alfalfa. MT. Gant's time and money was not spent in vain, for this then seemingly God constructed, the desert leveled, the ditches repaired and Heightened, and forsaken spot, now, with it's herds of fattening cattle, reminds one of na- ture's sweetest smiles.
 During all the time thatthese inn provements were going on MT. Cant sorely felt the need of good house. The shanty erected for temporary purposes afforded poor shelter for the help and for MT. Cant himself, who was advancing in years. Consequently a few weeks ago he decided to build a house.
 Hitching up his old gray horse early one morning he came to town to con- suit with contractor, As he wished the house to be well built he decided to figure with J. S. Hendrix Accord ingly he took that long whiskered gentleman into the front office of the Tempe house, the most convenient place in town, and laid before him his plans.

SOlAPED THE OCEAN.

New York, Jan. 24.-The North Ger man Lloyd steamship Gera, which ar rived yesterday from Bremen, ran into a tempest in midocean on Jan, IT and shipped the crests of many combers before her commander decided to try the efficacy of soft soap and oil on the rlotons waters. The ship was three hours wallowing in the trough, and Chief Officer Albert Traue says she heeled at times at an angle of 50 de- grees. One of the combers that srwashed over the starboard bow lift ed Seaman Frederick Arndt and dash ed him against the iron bitt, breaking his legs, one at the hip and the other below the knee. Boatswain Martin Schauer and Seaman Frederick Boe- sch were also knocked down and slightly injured by invading seas Arndt was taken to the St. Mary's Hospital after the Gera docked in Hoboken.
 It is usual for storm tossed vessels to use oil in quieting troubled waters, but the combination of soft soap and oil are rare. Capt. Meissel says it was effective. It was run from the closet pipes on the weather side, about sixty feet abaft the stem. About eight gallons of soft soap and four gallons of thick lubricating oil were used. The soft soap dripped through one pipe and the oil through onlother near by. A heavy father appeared on the sea, and the crests ceased break ing aboard. The storm moderated next day and the Gera was able to make her usual winter weather speed the rest of the trip.
