DEFENDS FIR. MOODY

To the Editor Of The Republican, Sir: There seems to be a disposition to criticize MT. Moody in some quarters Having had personal conversation with him only q few days ago on this very subject, I write a few lines in his defense and by way Of explanation. T prayed for . ha-d field and the Lord sent me to Colorado New Mexico and ETizOna,' is given as MOOdy's prayer. MT. Moody's person and property were and are as safe here as anywhere else in the Union,' is the reply. Surely there ia Q misunders -2nding. MT. Moody and any ether man wno has traveIed knows that the places he wis tied in Arizona are not to be compared for moment with many places in Texas, Kansas, Missouri and even farther east. I speak comparatively, of places in the same state of develop ment, and having the new surround ings. l myself have been amazed to find this true. From previous expeIi- ence ] expected to find things different. Where, then, lies the difference? It lies in the word hard. There is such a thing as hard and hard in this world.
 
 means the other. Mir. Moody told me himself that he meant no reflection upon the people of this region morally or as to government and behavior. He ever spoke highly of the kindness and courtesies he received What did he mean then? If we will turn to Mark 1O:17-22 and read we will find the an- sweT. Here is one seeking eternal life lie had kept all the commandments from his youth. Christ dces not dis pute the fact. So worthy was he that Jesus, who knew his inward heart, loved him. Surely there was nothing hard hore, yet when the text was put. Follow me" he proved his heart to be as hard as rock. This is the hard ness MT. Moody meant. If we want further evidence. let Us go to church next Sunday and to prayer meeting the following week. Let us note the per cent of voters that are present. Let us ask where the rest are and in quire as to their advantages of Chris tian home church, then clea" tEem if we can of the charge of hardness of heart Every man of hs will stand convicted and guilty before God if we do but consider even a little the pray CTS and teachings of the word, the gra- cious wOoings of the holy spirit, Chr1st's sufferin9s and death in our stead, and the Fathers patient wait ing for our return. Therefore we do MT. Moody great injustice to put a wrong meaning Jn his words and then him. We would do well to look, listen, learn and be c5edient to the word he breaches.
 Respectfully,

DENIS OF HORROR.
Such Are the Disease Infested Pris- Ons of BTOrOccO-A Vile
 System.

The prison system and treatment of prisoners is worse in Morocco than in any other country in the world.
 Men are arrested-often merely to spite some orc whom they have been so unfortunate as to offend, and who pos sess some power-and flung into pris- on, where they would be left to starve did not their relatives or friends bring them food, for no arrangements whatever are made by the authorities for the feeding of prisoners. All that is provided is prison, generally crowded with prisoners dying of the most Ioath- some and infectious diseases, dark and unventiated; and custodians who are quite as brutal and savage as the prison system itself
 Prisoners are cast into these hotbeds of disease, generally without the most farcical pretense of trial, to die and rot if their crimes are light, or their enemies impotent, Otherwise they are probably tortured in some way or an other. Starving merely is too good for them in the opinion of the authorities.
 Not long ago a merchant who had dared to claim payment for goods sup piled to a friend of one of the court off cials was cast into prison without trial, and after suffering torments in the midst of mass of diseased humanity for months was taken out, showed into barrel fitted with long spikes and rolled down high. steep hill.

i operative rests with Governor Murphy. The new county of Santa Cruz takes
 but a small slice of Pima, but there are a number of important camps which will contribute toward maintaining 1t.
 Tucson does not lose it's old-time pres tige commercially. It remains the principal business point of the section which gees to make up Santa Cruz county, and nothing is detracted from the city by the transformation No
 gales is a growing town and it's i'm
 pOrtance will be augmented as
 county seat. While Tucson people
 fought the division they take their de
 feat with good grace and will watch with interest the organization of the
 county and the setting of the ma chinery in motion. It is generally un- derstood here that Colonel Harlow of
 Nogales will be favored by Governor Murphy with the distribution of pat ronage. Collector Chenowith fought the bill and it is said his change Of heart is due to the understanding be- tween the governor and Colonel liar low that the latter should name the men for the county offices, if he was successful in getting the bill through both houses. That Governor Murphy will sign the bill no one questions.
 Santa Cruz county begins at NOgales where a great many worse things have had their beginning. Its eastern boun- dary takes in all of the New Mexico, Arizona railroad. from which the principal tax will be derived to main tain the new county. The northern boundary is six miles north Of the fourth standard, or twenty-seven miles north of the international boundary. Elgin, La Noria, Camerons ranch. Washington camp, Duquesne, liar shaw, Crittenden and Richardson's ranch are some of the more important places included in the slice broken off Pima county. From the northeastern boundary, the north line runs west 42 miles and stops near the Bustamante ranch, which is the northweste -t point, but not the farthest west. The line drops south twelve miles from the northwestern terminus, then goes west twelve miles and then again drops south distance of seven miles to the Mexico line. Orc Blanco and Old Glory are included in the new county, as are also the TumacacoTi land claims.

once asked a district nurse, says a writer in the Cornhill Magazine. how the various sick cases had been going on during my absence from the parish. At once the look which knew so well crossed her face, but her natural pro- fessional pride strove for the mastery with the due unctuousness which the considered necessary for the occasion. At last she evolved the following strange mixture: 'Middling well, sir, some of 'em's gone straight to glory, but am glad to say others are nicely on the mend.'

Eight Thousand New Orchids Found.

Details concerning the successful prosecution of the search of Sir George. King and Mir. Robert Pantling, of Alh- wick, for orchids in a prolific district of the Himalayas have just reached Eng land. The enthusiastic savants who have been engaged in the search for several years, have discovered and classified almost 5000 new species. They have been particularly fortunate in their search in the tropical valleys in the Sikkim HimaIaya, one of the most weird and romantic parts of In- dia. There they found the beautiful exotic plants growing everywhere in extraordinary profusion and bewilder ing variety.

One of the attractions of the Paris eX- hibition is to be the Mareorama, de vised and painted by M. Hugo d'Alesi, the well-known poster artist. After duly paying his fees the visitor will pass gangway and find himself on the deck of a first-class passenger steamer, with captain, crew, rigging, smoking tunnels, and every other detail com plete. Around stretches a blue and sparkling sea. while behind may be seen the port of Marseilles fading away on the horizon.

SHOES FOR SISTERS"
They Arc Made Very Plain and With out Regard to "RiEht" or
 Cleft" Feet.

The world, the flesh and the devil
 are the chief customers of shoe manu- lecturers. And a pretty restless, crit
 ical crowd of customers they are. For
 them, makers of lasts rack their brains
 for change and novelty of style; and
 tanners draw the colors of the rain
 bow to their feathers, using all kinds
 of glazes and finishes, to tempt pug
 zled buyers to try their wares.
 There is class of shoe buyers. how ever, sweet-faced, patient, minister ing angels on earth, who, in their self abnega ton, require specially plain and austere shoes, reflective of their quiet lives and restrained feelings. Nurses, sisters of charity, old ladies and wOm- en who have reuounced the world form body of people for whom spe- cial shoes are made.
 These shoes, as a rule. are of black glazed kid, plain uppers unadorred with patent tips or any signs Of van ity. The soles are of oak leather, very flexible and fairly thick. No in scle is used, but a little filling, so as to avoid any squeaking. The side stays are strictly simple, and the lin ings are virgin white.
 The soles are not rights" and 'lefts;" they are all of the same shape, so that the shoes, which are roomy and large, can be worn on either foot. This is valuable accom- modation for nurses, who are liable to be suddenly aroused to attend sick patients.
 These "comfort" shoes-are all that a1. T h. popular among those who attend the sick or devote themselves to charity or religion.
 A bright salesman connected with this class of goods said: We sell di- rect to jobbers, whose men visit city retailers. The retailer, usually one who has been long esta b.:shel in busi- ness, will call at q convent or similar place. The lady superior gives him list of the shoes needed, so that it is not necessary to interview the sis ters themselves. It is a curious busi- ness, and one that is not easily mas tered. Our people have been making these easy shoes for years. and know exactly what is wanted. Sometimes jobbers desiring to sell our lines in struct us to brighten the shoes up a little with patent leather trimmings or colorcd Things. We explain that the shoes cannot be made too plainly, and that style or ornamentation would be frowned on by the gentle class for whom they were intended.
 ''These shoes, having fairly thick soles, can be used indoors or OF the streets. They are unusually easy and l noiseless. Winter shoes contain all insole of felt, which is damp proof. l Many retailers carry them in stock, as there arc lots of old ladies in he world | anxious for ease before elegance ill footwear"
 And the plain, homely shoes con- tinued to rest, apparently in prim silence. on the shelves of the manu- lecturers sample-room, on which were highcuts and lowcuts. tans and patent feathers. in wide variety of gay man pulation. But there seemed some thing almost eloquent about those black, round-toed shoes for good women, whose lives are altars of duty md silent monuments of all that is pure and good.-Hide and Leather.

SANTA CRUZ.
The New Half of Pima County Takes in Most of the Rich
 Southern Mining Camps.

The new county of Santa Cruz in c1udes thirty-four townships within it's boundaries, says the Citizen. The Papago bill, out of which this new bill grew, was even more pretentious. but it was killed and it was believed that county division legislation had re- ceiyed a death blow. The NogaIes con tingent who had spent two weeks of in cessant labor returned home when the Papago measure died, and those who were fighting to keep Pima county in tact also went home. The bill came up again in a new form and wearing new title, and the old fight was re- stunned. It passed both branches of he legislature and whether 1t becomes

Scrub stock Means Loss.

If there ever was a time, says an ex- change, when the farmer who is hard pressed financially could not afford to keep poor stock, it is at present. The poorer the farmer is the more neces- sity there is for keeping only the best stock, because it is tine only kind in which there is any profit. Only rich men can afford to keep scrubs. It re quires a bank account to maintain a farm on which scrub stock is kept, and if the farmer does not have balance to his credit, he will have to borrow from those who have.
