Made Him Sing Bass.


sWhat man has done man can do"
is a good motto, but it needs to be in
terpreted in the light Of common sense.
Every nov and then we hear of a man
who takes it to mean that a little per-
severance will make q Newton or q
Beethoven out of the stupidest of us.
Here is a story connected with Lid
dell, the somewhat overpositive dean
of Christ church, borrowed from The
Spectator:
DR.. Corfe, the organist of Christ
church, "a at this time sorely plagued
by one Of the choirmen, whose alto
singing was miserably bad. He came
to the dean.
"Mr. Dean, 1 really cannot have that
nan singing any longer. He spoils the
whole choir. If only he sang bass it
would not SO much matter, but such an
alto is i~ntolerable."
Very well, DR.. Corfe," said the dean,
II will deal with the matter"
So the choirman was sent for.
"Dr. Corfe complains Of your sing
ing and says he cannot have you sing.
ing alto any longer. but that it would
not be so bad if you sang bass. Fol
the future, therefore, be good enough
to sing bass"
"But, Mr.. Dean, l cannot sing bass
rejoined the man.
WELL" answered Liddell. 8" am nc
musician, but sing bass you must
Good morning"
And for many a year afterward, as
can be but too well remembered, the
man sang bass till he was finally
shelved.

FISH TRANSFERRED.
Deputy Mower Places 372 Rainbow
Trout in the Lake Waters.

Deputy Game Warden Henry A.
Mower successfully removed 372 rain j..
bow trout and about 100 squaretails
from the state hatchery at Wilkinson
Vile to the lake yesterday. Only eight
fish wele lost on the road, which re-
fleets well on the careful and competent
handling Of Deputy Mower. The re-
moval vas attended with a difficulty
which was not thought of previously.
Mr.. Mower found considerable difficult
ty in procuring a change of water on
the road, which is necessary for the sue
cessful removing of fish. He changed
the water twice during the journey and
was obliged to call at three farmLouses
in one instance.
Ordinarily in transporting fish in that
manner the securing of change Of
water is so easy a matter that no at
tention is given to it. The brooks are
so dry that Mr.. Mower could not get
water, and at farmhouses the supply
was SO slight that he could not get it

 Morenci is now being supplied with
 water direct from Eagle creek, the first flow having been made last Fri day. Thus far it comes in handy, as the water supply previously was of muddy and objectionable character and caused much complaint from our citizens who were obliged to use it. The water flow has an enormous pres sure, sufficient to supply the whole set clement as the tanks are placed upon the highest hill of the camp. No sep arate pumPing is necessary as all the Pumping is done at the creek and the water is forced into the tanks, which are of sufficient height to supply every part of the camp.-Copper Era.
 Several weeks ago Al Doyle went to the coal fields and o3tained samples which he sent to E. H. Becker of Chi oago. who had an analysis of the coal made Tuesday Mir. Doyle received a ie.ttor from Mr. Becker from which we quote the following: Much trav- cling and pressure of business has prevented my advising you further about that C-nl, and now I have not copy of the analysis at hand, but it was all that could be expected It burned very freely without heavy draft. Did not leave an excessive amount of ash; in fact, was better in that respect than most of the soft coals. There was very little sulphur. If that is a fair sample of the coal there is nct question about the quality I think it would be a coking coal. Sorry that I have net the analysis here to send you, but 1 had delayed writing for 50 long that I thought 1 had better send you q letter, especially as I will net be at Chicago again for long time. e.'-Coconino Sun.
