4 telegram appeared In the Phe- nix Herald ou September =, bear ing date at Buffalo, \. Y., Septem- Der 22. which says: With a news paper train carrying the New York Sunday papers and consisting of three baggage cars and a locomotive, the Lackawanna railroad today beat all records between New York aud Buffalo, covering 40 miles in the actual running time of seven hours and twenty-three minutes II the date on the telegram appeared cor rectlv in the Herald, there IS no wonder that fast time was made. Carving Sunday morning papers on Friday a train would naturally want to get a hump on itself and beat all records. There IS possibility though, that instead of those New York papers holding their edition till Friday, that telegram was five days in reaching our enterprising Phenlx contemporary, in which case it travelled slower than the train.

PATRIOTISM FORCED FROM
 MANILA

Freedom. is the name of a news paper published in Manila. It gives expression to some sentiments of loy alty which should be read by Mir Atkinson and his semi -traitorous CO workers in the following:
 "The war in Luzon must go on; II was brought on by the overbearing natives, and there is only one course under heaven to pursue. The sov- ereignty of the United States must be acknowledged in the archipel- ago before the next step can be taken. Any other course would be folly.
 "Why not cease this chatter about the independence of the Filipinos until the Philippine commission has reported?
 People of America, if you have a flag, honor it; if you have a govern ment, support it; if you have an ad- ministration, strengthen 1t; if you have troops at the front, uphold them, and if you have traitors, damn them eteTnally."

Went Broke on a Mine

4 recent telegram from London says; R. W. Bell, formerly an officer in the British South Africa police, has failed here and an adjourned meeting of his creditors was re- gently held in the London bank ruptcy court, when the senior official receiver reported that accounts against him amounting to over ST. 600 had been filed.
 After leaving South Africa Bell came to the United States, went to California and bought an orange grove. He gave that up and went back to Utah, where he became part owner of the Creole silver lead mine. He returned to England in 1897 and since that time was engaged in try ing 10 form a company to work the mine. He was to receive S100.0OO for every $500, 900 capital subscribed. He ascribes his failure to his losses in the Creole mine, in which he sank S40000. The mine is at pres ent shut down.

DEAF, DUMB AND AN IDIOT.
sadly Unfortunate Condition of che Heir tO the English Duke
 of Norfolk.

The coming of age of the earl of Arundel, son of the duke of Norfolk. the premier peer Of England, is . sad episode of the year, says the New York Times. The boy is said to be idiotic and deaf and dumb. For years the father, a stanch Roman Cath olic, has frequented Lourdes and other .hrines with his son, but in vain, and prayers have been offered for him in numerous convents and churches and votive offerings made. He has em- ployed the best medical talent, but there seems Co be no improvement in the boys condition. He is devoted to him. The duke of Norfolk Is a com paratively young man. 6 little over 50 years of age. He is widower, and has never seemed to want to marry again. His brother, who was Cardinal How ard. lost his mind shortly before he lied. Arundel castle. in Sussex, is one of the great showhouses of England. Some years ago a rumor was started that the duke of Norfolk was paying devoted attention 10 Miss Nirginis Me lavish. of Baltimore. Mrs. and Miss McTayish have lived abroad for several years, making their winter residence in Rome. where they have become iden- ufed with the Blacks" or the pepA aristOcracy, which is the most sNclu- sive in the holy city.

4 remarkable condition obtains at Santa Ana, where the owners of the
 big cannerY requested the board of education to defer the opening of the pubic schools one week longer as "the school help in the cannery was necessary to handle the fully ripened fruit" The case is an unique one, and as the boys and girls are willing, it will doubtless be done. The very remarkable feature in this condition is, that in another month, when cool breezes blow, the south coast will be overrun with able-bodied trampinG men, who will cry 'I cannot geti work" and make life miserable for kind-hearted men. This is one of theconditions that de mand some legal solution touching tbe welfare of the drone element in the body polite. This phase of the so-called sociological problem offers royal honors to some modern Joshua who will lead a long-sufering peo- pie out of this wilderness of a halt ing policy on penal methods of deal ing with professional tramPs.-Los Angeles Times,

PopuIar FaIacy Exploded.

The Scientific American states that the venerable bogey of the crystaIlizA- ton of steel and iron in bridge struc- lures is consistently trotted out. It is probable that a large percentage of the passengers daily crossing Brooklyn bridge believe that the metal of the bridge is deteriorating ''crystalliz- ing"-and that the wire cables, unless they are renewed, will in the course of time give way and precipitate the whole bridge into the river. Tests in the la- boratory and half a century's tests in the field, supplemented by the recent careful tests made by Prof. Carpenter, of Cornell, prove that this view is no longer tenable. There is no reason why, with careful inspection to pre- vent oxidation by the weather, the met al of such structures as the Brooklyn and Forth bridges should not last as in- definitely as if it lay imbedded in the ore from which it was extracted.

He Is In Love With Arizona

Speaking of the recent visit of l . H. Warning to his home in Cal ifornia, the Santa Paula Chronicle has the following to say concerning him:
 1. H. Warning has for the past week been greeting his many friends Si0ce bis return from ArizonA. All will learn with sincere regret that later on We are likely to lose him aud his estimable family. "Hud' has been intrusted with an important position and the management of large mining and other properties at Prescott and he may find it neces- sary to take up his permanent resi- dence there. He is very enthusiastic over Arizona.
 He reports the climate at Pres colt as pleasant as that of Southern California; the people are very social, intelligent and progressive; society IS frst-class; the schools are good, and Prescott is a model town. It has the brightest of mining and business prospects, and great future.
 If Mir. Warning should conclude to locate there, the Chronicle takes great pleasure in commenting him to the people of that section as a gentleman of the stTictest integrity and honor and a business man pcs sessing high order of talent. He was for term or two our popular aud efficient county clerk. For eight years he was secretary aEd manager of the Union Oil company of this city, and in all responsible places that he has held, which gre several, he proved himself to be not only thoroughly competent, but 6 every waZ-n0rexabIe-srd trust worthy. fe has ample means and we predict he will largely add to his fortune in his new home, and he will do 1t by only honorable methods. His hosts of friends here will be sorry to part with him, but if he must go, their warmest wishes for his prosperity will go with him

AN EVIDENCE OF PROSPERITY.

If any doubting Thomas feels skeptical about the reign of pros perity which now prevades thls country from one end to the other let him undertake to place an order for almost any manufactured pro duet. He will fud that his order will be placed on file to take its turn. Only yesterday prominent merchant of Prescott complained on this score, saving that the factories were unable to Ell his orders promptly as they have done hereto fore, owing to the rush ol business. During the Cleveland administra- tion panic factories were closed down and the supply or manutact- ured products in very many lines was permitted 70 run down. The prosperous condition of the country during the past few years has creat- cd an additional demand ID this country. while the foreign trade has not been 50 heavy for years as 1t has during the past year, despite the ominous warning of our democratic brethren that the operation of the Dinsipv bfu would shut of our ex- port trade.
 The active demand for mauuiact- ured artlcies has naturally created au increase in the price ofvery many oi them. The law of supply and de maud Is inevitable m this respect. Scarcity produces higher prices. while plenty forces prices down. Natural laws, however, provide a compensation for this condition. as a rule, but uo, always. by providing greater powers for purchasing. In the present condition of affairs Is not the exception to the rule as the increased employment given to wage earners throughout the United States today enables them to be bet ter able to purchase at the advanced prices than they Were ito purchase four and six years ago at the then lower prices which prevailed.

Democratic papers are just now setting their calamity vail to new music. While every existing condi- ton that was not what they wished it to be, formerly, was attributed to the demonstration of silver, now ii is the trusts which cause 1t all. This administration is designated as one of trusts. It isno doubt true that the wonderful prosperity of the country under the Mckinley admin istratior has partially been the means of causing combinations of capital into what is known as trusts, and in this sense the administration may be responsible. It IS also a fact that during the last years of demo cratic rule in the United States there prevailed such condition Of lack of confidence and financial de- pression in the industrial world that the man who could get trusted for the necessarles of life thought him self in big luck. Prosperity has been largely instrumental in the lorna tiou of trusts.

Notes from the Tax Roll.

The total assessment of Ysvspai county this year is S4,l42,S0O aud the total amount of taxes due on it is $142,s56 60.
 The heaviest tax payer in the county is the United Verde Copper company of Jerome which is assessed on real estate and improvements Sll6,250.50 and on personal property S370, ,9S000 making a total assessed valuation of S4S7 ,230.50 and a total tax $l6,565.82. In addition to this W. A. Clark is assessed on patented mines $5.S60 and on personal prop erty S4,250 making a total of Sl0,ll0 and total personal tax of S344.0S. Senator Clark, who owns the ma jority of stock in the United Verde company, hence pays a total tsx of Sl6.9O9.O0.
 The Santa Fe Pacific railroad company is taxed on its land Sl .555.- 72, and rolling stock and other property $5,l46.92 and on a pipe line $50 making its taxes 1852 69. These two corporations are the heaviest tax payers in the county.
 Educational Possibilities.
 The educational possibilities of the brute creation have probably been reached by Prof. Gentry, who IS known all over the land as 6 wonderful trainer of dogs and pom les. His company this year consists of over 275 of the handsomest speci- mems of their kind obtsinable, all of whom have been educated to & wonderful degree of intelligence. The entire company will display their talents in this city under a tent on Pleasant aud Willis streets Friday. September 29, afternoon and evening.
 IL is said by persons who are authority on such subjects, that Prof. Gentry has reached the final limit of what dogs and ponies may be educated to do. and it is also said that nothing further can be accom- plished in that line. If this be true Prof. Gentry certainly deserves the phenomenal success that continually greets his exhibitions. The prices are decidedly reasonable and anyone can afford to attend.
