 Live News Taken From Territorial Exchanges.

guis. Constable Gonzales of Tempe was 2t that time employed at the SiI- yer Bell and he is the only person who could give the authorities any light, but it Is not known that he remem- bers the case, as there were a great many murders committed in those days MungUis was arrested 3 few days ago on a charge of assault with deadly weapon. When he was brought into the jail to be locked up Sheriff Wakefield recognized him at once- Tucson Citizen.
 The compromise effected recently between w. A. Clark and Duke. Sher- man and others, in the litigation over mining properties near Jerome, means much for that portion Of this county. Under the terms of the comprmise it is stated that w. A Clark, among other advantages, obtains a site for Q new smelter, on ground much more favorable for such a plant than the present location. This fact naturally raises the presumption that it is the intention at no very distant day to re- move his plant ti3. this location. This presumption is confirmed by the fact hat he has already made a survey for the extension of his railroad to that point. The properties, which have been tied up for several years, will now 5e worked actively. It is generally be- ieved, and a belief whichit is said is largely shared by W. A Clark, as well IS others, that this group promises to become a rival of the United Verde mine in the extent of it's mineral de- 9osits, It is confidently expected that within a few years one of the largest towns in the territory will be built up at CT near the present town Of Jeroue. -JOurnal-Miner.

STORIES FOR CHILDREN.
There Should Be Variety, But the old Favoritcs Bear Frequent
 Repetition.

When one speaks of telling stories to the little people. prose narratives seem to be commonly understood and as commonly used. but there is no mistake greater than to suppose that children are not susceptible to the charms of poetry.
 They care more for poetry. oR the contrary, than the ma iority of grown people, whether for the melody, the Thy thnl. the rhymes, the short lines. the simplicity and picturesquencss of expression. or for all these reasons to- gether, which makes it q thing pleas antly different from common speech Goethe advised that every child should see q pretty picture and hear a'bcauti- full poem every day. and if we would not baniah the charm of poetry from mature life it behooves us to follow his advice and subject the child to it's in fluence at the time of greatest suscepti- biIity.
 We must beware however. of giving q one-sided development Ey ccrtining ourselves too much to ere branch of literature; we must include in our repertory some well-sCIcctcd r:yths, IaTN SlofiCS WHICH ''It Eu1c anu iit- uaI in tone. and fable HOW and .hen. Nature stories. hero tales, animal anec- dotcs, occasional narratives about good. wholesome children, neither prigs nor infant villains. plenty of fine poetry. as has been said, aad for the older ones of tEe family. legends. ale gcries and historic happenings. A large stock of stories is rot essential for little children. They feel as Bu! wer said, the beauty and the holiness that dwell in the customary and the cid; and they are well pleased-and it is best that it should be so-with bear ing the same old favorites repeated again and again. in song or in story. from their mothers lips--Nora Archi- bald Smith, in Ladies Horne Journal.

IROEI IN EGGS.
An Ingenious FreUchmnn Feeds It to His Hcns-Hcdicinei in
 Hen Fruit.

There is scarcely any branch in which medicine has not advanced in the last 20 years. but in no enc branch has more improvement been shown than in the compoundiug and putting together of drugs. No more is the unwilling pa tient made to swallow large doses of Eauseating medicine, for sugar-coated rilIs. capsules and Wafers have come into use. and patients can now take the most vile-tastiEg medicines without any discomfort. Now comes along Frenchman with still more ingenious plan which opens up to pharmacy un- bounded possibilities of going still fur ther ahead.
 On account of the difficulty of as similating iron as medicine. French druggist has sought to intro duce it in a digestible way by what he terms ferruginous eggs.
 Hens can digest iron easily. while rendering it back through the aIbumen of their eggs in form that $ easily di- gested by the weaker stomachs of man kind. \ salt Of iron is given to the hens with grains of wheat. dozen of these medicated grains of wheat q day makes the hens, after three or four days, lay eggs which arc very rick in iron already digest-d.
 The Frenchman is experimenting further with other drugs, and it is not without the bounds of possibility that we shall shortly be able to take all our medicine in he form of eggs.-New Or leans Times Democrat.
