Mr.. John Peterson, of PatoutvfIle.
La, was very agreeably surprised
not long ago. For eighteen months
he had been troubled with dysentery
and had tried three of the best doc
tors in New Orleans, besides half a
dozen or more patent medicines, but
received very little relief. Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoe
Remedy, having been recommended
to him, he gave it trial and to his
great surprise, three doses of that
remedy effected a permanent cure.
Mr.. VIM. Mcnamara, a we'll known
merchant of the same place. is well
acquainted with Mr.. Peterson and
attests to the truth of this statement.
rms remedy is for sale by T. N. Cole

Wheat Crop a Failure.

San Francisco. May 14.-Re-
ports from Associated Press
correspondents in the Sacra-
mento and San Joaquin valleys,
the great wheat growing section
of the state. say that the wheat
crop this year will be almost a
total failure in California. In
Sacramento and adjoining coun-
ties the outlook is decidedly
gloomy. Wheat has not yet
headed and most of it i
cut for hay.
There is a general bel, hat
that there will not be euoagt
wheat this year for seed. Euor-
nous quantities of corn are be-
ing brought from Kansas and
Nebraska to feed stock. Ad-
vices from Stockton state that
not more than 10000 tons of
wheat will be harvested this
year. The normal yield is from
100000 to 125,0O0 tons. In
Fresno and adjoining counties
the wheat crop is regarded as a
total loss.

A NOBLE WOMAN.

A large patriotic concert was given
last week in Detroit, Mich, for one of
the city's most helpful institutions, the
house of industry. The event seemed
to call attention to noble and philan-
thropic woman, Mrs. A. L. D'Arcam-
bal, the founder of the home, who has
made record of years of disinterested
work for prisoners and discharged con-
victs. The history of Mrs D'Arcambal
and her works reads like a romance.
More than fifty years ago, when she
was Agnes Harrington, little girl in
Buffalo, she went one day to the jail to
take dinner to prisoner at the re-
quest of friend. Her visit made a
deep impression upon her mind and
she could not keep from thinking about
the unfortunate men she had seen
within the walls and behind iron bars.
She went often and began her life
work of helpfulness in this small but
devoted way. Not long afterward she
removed to Kalamazoo, Mich. She
continued her work among prisoners
by visiting the little frame Jail. One
day of each week she gave entirely to
prisoners. She went about asking for
subscriptions and donations of cloth
ing, books and fruit. AS many of those
whom she had helped wrote to her from
the state prison at Jackson, she began
series of visits to that institution,
which have not been interrupted since
that time. She early married, becom-
ing Mrs. DArcambal. AS the cells in
the state prison were dark, she secured
lights for them from the legislature,
and then by a great effort going from
city to city, she obtained a large num-
Der of books and magazines for a Ii
brary for the prisoners. No one who
came under her notice failed to receive
help in both material and spiritual
lines. She made the prisoners love her
for her kindness and good works.
When they left the institution wherein
they were confined they did not forget
her, but often wrote to her, telling how
they were getting on. Like Jean Val
jean in "Les Miserables," many of
them could find nothing to do, no one
to have anything to do with them, no
place to go, no friends. "Mother"
D'Arcambal conceived the idea of es.
tablishing home for such men, where
they could learn to look the world in
the face after the gloomy and degrad-
ing influence of prison life. After

ELTOPIA.

"That seems peculiar name for a
town." | remarked to Sonora Mike the
driver of the stage as we left for Globe.
Eyes, that's the name now, and there
are three churches and twenty.six sa-
looms and bank in the place, but
when Hollerin' Joe (who has lost his
voice. first discovered the place he had
got stuck in the mud with his six
mule team, and when the boys came to
help him out he remarked "Here's hell
to pay" The boys looked around and
concluded that was a good name for
the camp. So ElltOpay it was, but
when Uncle Sam put post office there
the name, clerk got it Eltopia.'
II told you there is three churches
now, but there weren't none church
whatsoever when Parson Jim first
came to the camp The Parson was
the best poker player in Arizona, and
stranger, he was the darndest best par
son we ever had in these here parts.''
''Tell me about the parson, Nike"
interjected.
"Well, the first time 1 see the Parson
was in Jose Herrera's faro bank over
the Greengarden saloon. There was
tenderfoot comes out here with his
wife and little gal. Now this yere ten
derfOot had been somebody back in
the states, but he'd gone daft on dope,
and [ tell you, stranger, there amt
nOthin' else on earth what'II make a
man steal from his own wife and try
so sell his own daughter. Well, his
wife and daughter, they were thorough
breds, you bet, and they don't 60 back
on him whatever but come out here
with him as l say, and the women do
washing and mending for the boys and
make living. But this coyote he
goes and steals the dust belonging to
one of the boys and blows it against the
bank, and then he borrOws the gun of
one the boys and jumps off right there
Well, the ParsOn seemed to know all
about the women and he gets up and
he says like this, "Boys, this fellow
here has cashed in and l reckon when
man does that he settles what he
owes down here, SO We'll call it square.
But there be two ladies up the gulch,
what knew him when he was a man
and stuck to him when he fell down.
Now, on account OF the respect for
these ladies moves that we takes up
collection and plants him decent.
The blue chips, gentlemen, are six and
two bits" And they takes up a COL
lection and gets enough to plant him
and send the ladies back East.
About three weeks after that the
Parson busted Herreras' bank, and

mechanics once a week. Establish
trade schools; encourage good reading
and cease making a machine out of
them. Prison reform will cease to exist
only in theory. 1t takes time to recover
lost opportunities and by systematic
course of lectures and trade school in
structions the prisoner would be able
to withstand the strain by being self
supporting until he can rise above the
ory and regain a portion of what is
lost. Make a man self-supporting and
the chances are he will never stoop to
crime again. But, the battle of starva-
tion to fight on one side and the enmity
of society on the other, they soon drift
into evil and the question is no nearer
solved than before prison congresses
first went off on picnics or the day
when reform began on theories which
have never become facts.

port her and the chances are he cannot
provide for himself. She agrees to
obey and does not know how to fry
potatoes. The dazzling dream ends
in darkness and they appeal to the di-
vorce court. The judge separates them;
dissolves the bond divine, and in so
doing disorganizes society, sets aside
sacred relations, makes himself the one
to decide when the marriage obliga-
ton should end, bars the door against
repentance and return and throws on
the community the task OF caring for
the children and perhaps the dependent
parents of the unfortunate pair. The
better part of society should see to it
that people who are tickle enough to
get married for acquaintance's sake
should be made to understand that it
is union for life and never again be
allowed to make another mistake by
marrying in haste. When viewed in
the light of logic we can see at once
that it is an unconditional contract
and can not become void like a simple
or conditional one. When measured
by the moral law permanent release
is allowable for adultery, a tempo
rary separation for many causes, but
because of the internal conditions of
the marriage tie, an absolute divorce
never G. r.

when he tapped the bank, Herrera
puts the building and the fxings and
the layout against thousand and lost
it. And when Jim gets up, he says,
"Boys, this bank is closed for good and
next Sunday and every Sunday after
Parson Greene from Red Dog will
preach in this here room and l pays
the tax for one year and donates the
building" That's why they called him
