The Band successful.

In last issue of the STAR it was an
nounced that the way the people pat
ronized the ball Friday night, was to
decide whether or not the band was
TO continue its existence. A large
number attended the dance and had
one of the best evenings :of the season
The receipts we're nearly $50 and very
assisted in placing the band
on business basis. H. ID. Clark gave
a check for $40 and s2.l5 was made on
on the ice cream served during the
dance.
The members of the band feel better
toward their fellow business men and
friends, for to spend the time that is
necessary to make band successful
and then be forced to pay the expenses
of the band while those not in the
Organization reap as much reward as
those inside and do no work, it was
becoming rather monotonous. 1t Is
quite probable, however, that the peo-
pie did not know of any expense that
comes to ga band and would have re-
sponded literally had.they understood
the circumstances. They surely did
beautifully in the effort of last week.
1t is the intention of the band to give
ball once each month and in this
way all will have enough genuine
pleasure to pay for the small amount
paid to the band. Let everybody do all
their duty to the city of Hot Springs

A PIONEERS SUICIDE
Poor and Despondent He Ends His Life
 By Taking Poison.

About half past five Wednesday morning as ne was coming to his work Abe Goldbaum saw the bcdy of q man outstretched on the grass in the Tue >son city park almost directly in front of the Congregational church. As ke drew near he recognized the man as M. w. Hammerstrand. Seeing no movement he stepped over to where he was lylng and laid his hand on his face. The man was dead and had evidently passed away some hours hef)re. Be side him on the grass lay | small cup, empty.
 MT. Goldbaum immediately notified the city police who In turn notified the coroner. This morning an inquest was held and the jury rendered a verdict of suicide by poison.
 Speaking of the event the Citizen says: MT. Hammerstrand came here about twenty years ago from the cOun try about Prescott. He is well known here and has engaged Tn nearly every kind of work. Of late years he has been down on his luck and about two years ago tried to end his life by cut ting his throat. In this he was pre- vented and seemed to recover much of his old spirit. Since then he has been working around at odd jobs. selling books, collecting, mining and interpret ing, but never made more than a bare living.
 Last night about six he was in the office of w. E. Wetmore. He was in d very Respondent mood and appeared to have been crying. MT, Wetmore tried to cheer him up but was unable to do anything to make him less Respondent After he left Wetmore's office very little was seen of him. The finding of his

HAVE YOU A DIAMOND.

Although you may not be an expert at precious stones, there are three ways in which you can tell whether a dia- mond is real or not.
 First boil the stone in boracic acid to preserve the polish upon the surface of the stone. Then heat the jewel in d gas flame and drop it into cold water while it is hot. If it is a real diamond it will stand the test without cracking to pieces. If an imitation, the stone will crack and crumble into pieces. The second method is as follows:
 Take a cup of water-a black cup, Suttapercha or any dark stone cup is best-and drop two stones into the Wa ter, the one a diamond. or supposed diamond. and the other, which is known to be ordinary crystal The diamond. if true one, will be clearly visible. while the other stone will blend with the water in such a way as to De almost imperceptible in the water.
 Another plan is to procure a surface of striped paper-red and white strips are the most suitable-and pass the suspected stone slowly over its surface. If the cOlors show through the stone it is some variety of crystal, and not a diamond. A real diamond will not show the variety of colors, but will look the same over the red as well as the white stripes.-London Daily Express.

HOW TO RAISE CHICKENS
A Phoenix Mans Experience in the
 Poultry Business.

"A man has no business going into business unless he knows his business" said a Phoenix man yesterday. Tt is generally supposed that everyone knows how to raise chickens, and l thought the same till few years ago"
 ''I heard of some blooded Wyan- dotte fowls out north of town and thought I would raise a few just for fun and to let my wife know that though I was not raised on a farm had good genuine information. So l bought two dozen eggs and they gave me an extra one for good measure. In due process of time everyone of them matched and I had twenty-five of the finest looking chickens in the world. After a day or two my wife suggested that the chicks would want some water and undertook to tell me what kind of a dish to water them in.
 ''I told her I thought I knew as much as anyone about chickens, and hadn't asked for any advice yet. hen I pro- ceeded to get a five-gallon oil can there is nothing like having lots of water-filled it and sunk it level with the surface of the ground and went to work. During the day some of it evaporated and the chickens, in try ing to reach it, one by one, fell into the can and were drowned.
 That is the last brood of chickens ever raised, but I did steal sack full of watermeIons one time and carried them ten miles on horseback before l found out they were citrons.''

 Last winter, in the midst of the work of deciding upon the personnel of a Philippine commission, a matter in which no one was more interested than Senator Platt, Mrs. Platt was stricken with a most serious illness at the Ar lington hotel. While the doctors looked grave over her condition and com manded the utmost quiet and rest sine disobeyed orders sufficiently to draft q list of names of the men who she thought would best fill the places on the commission.
 The senator argued the matter with her, and not only begged her to desist on account of her health, but because he differed with her and did not like to cross her while i'll. Her judgment was good on this occasion, and several per- sons she named are now members of the commission.
 Her sons always consult her in their business, and have often been known to come hundreds of miles to do it. Mrs. Platt is now nearing 70. though she does not look it, and is said to be the most brilliant politician among the off cial housewives of Washington.-CIeye land Leader.

CAREER OF ADMIRAL SEYMOUR

Sir Edward Seymour was born on April 30. 1S40. and so is just past his sixtieth birthday
 He entered the service in 1852, be- came sub-lieutenant in 1850, and lieu tenant less than a year later. He was promoted commander in 1866, captain in 1873, and obtained flag rank as rear admiral in 1889. He has been vice Id- miral since November 9, 1895.
 Seymour's first war service was in the Black sea, and was present at the bombardment of Odessa, at Sebastopol at the capture of Kirtch. and the bom- bardment of Kinburn. Going out to China, he joined his uncle's flagship and was midshipman in charge of her launch when it was sunk in the action at Fatshan, the admiral himself being in the launch.
 In 1860, being promoted, he served as lieutenant in the Chesapeake. and in 1862, when in the Imperieuse, com manded small-arm party at the relief of Sing-POo and the capture of Kah- Ding in 1862. His experience of war in China has been, therefore, of a very ex- tensive character.
 When promoted commander he was in the Growler. on the west coast of Africa. and effected a daring rescue of Congo river in January. 1870. On this occasion when he was severely wound ed he received the special approval of the admiralty.
 He saw no further service until 1882.

HORSES sHoD WITH STRAW.

Straw is put to strang uses in Ja- pan. Most of the horses are shOd with straw. Even the clumsiest of cart horses wear straw shoes. In their case the shoes are tied around the ankles with straw rope, and are made of the ordinary rice straw, braided so that they form sole for the foot about half an inch thick. These soles cost about a half penny per pair. and when they are worn out they are thrown away. Every cart has a stock of fresh new shoes tied to the horse or to the front of the cart, and in Japan it was formerly the custom to measure dis tances largely by the number of horse shoes it took to cover the distance. So many horseShoes made days journey, and the average shoe lasted for about eight miles of travel.-Pearson' s Weekly.

when he commanded the Iris through the Egyptian campaign of that year, and for his services received the third class of the Osmanieh.
 In 1887 he received his C. E. and was made A. D. C. to the queen, and at the diamond jubilee his well earned pro- motion in the Order of the Bath came to him.
 From 1892 to 1894 he was second in command of the Channel squadron, and from 1894 to 1897 he was admiral super intendent of the naval reserves.
 In both these capacities he command ed fleets at all the naval maneuvers from 1893 to 1896. and was almost in variably successful, showing himself an admiral of the highest strategical abii- ity. Few officers, moreover can han dle fleet at steam tactics like Sir Ed ward Seymour. His present appoint ment. one of the most important in the service, he has held since December F, 1897, when he hoisted his flag on the Centurion.
 Sir Edward also wore on his right breast the silver medal of the Royal Humane society, earned on the China station in 1860 by gallant attempt to save a marine who had fallen over board.
 In short, Sir Edward is typical of the best class of naval officer. both as gentleman and a sailor. He has won to the high position he holds by sheer merit, and is one of the most popular officers in the service, both socially and professionally, than which there can be no higher test of a mans worth.-Lon- don Express.

SOMETHING ABOUT MEDICINE.

Bear this in mind when you give medicine:
 Read the label on the bottle.
 Shake the bottle before you pour it out.
 Even if the bottle is marked. it is safer to measure the dose in a properly marked glass.
 A medicine glass should be in every house. One can be bought for few cents.
 Medicine ordered three times a day should be given at 10 a. m., P. m., and 6 p. m.
 If the direction is that it is to he taken every four hours give it at s d. m.. F n., p. m.. and s D. m.
 Do not give medicine in the night un- less the doctor has told you distinctly to do so.

MINING NOTES
Matters of Interest in Arizona and
 New Mexico.

With its present large ore production there is no reason why Arizona should ship a pound of ore for treatment be- yond its own boundaries, says the Los Angeles Mining Review. It should have its own smelters to treat its own ores. Yet it is safe to say that fully one-half of all the ore it produces has to be ship ped to outside smelters. In view of this it is to be hoped that the plans now being considered by the Acme Smelt- ing and Refining company of Phoenix for the construction of smelting plant at Wickenburg will be success fully completed and that the ores from that large mining region of which Vic kenburg is a center will be treated there instead of being shipped to points outside the territory.
 The Los Angeles Herald says: "C. S. Corning, manager of the new smelt- ing plant in course of construction at Needles, was in the city a day or two ago, going from here to San Francisco on business connected with his en- terprise. An S0-ton stack for his plant was shipped from St. Louis July s. and it will soon be on the ground. MT. Corn ing hopes to be able to blow in during the latter part of August"
 It is learned that MT. Charles F. Potter of Minneapolis. who lately visit ed Arizona secured while there some mining property in the Dragons, Co., chise county. Since his return to Min neapolis he has organized the Copper Crown of Arizona Mining company, which has taken over the property and will begin developing it. Late advices from Cochise county are that the cop per belt of the Dragoon mountains is proving, under development, to be very rich and extensive. In a late issue the Tombstone Prospector states that considerable amount of capital has gone in there during the last few months and that a number of promis- ing properties are now being opened along the range.
 The Mining Report of Denver says: Word was received in Denver last week of the total destruction of the new plant of the Cochiti Reduction and Inn provement company at Woodbury, New Mexico, of which MT. R. w. Woodbury and w. C. Wynkoop of Denver were the prime movers. The plant cost in the neighborhood of $3O, 900, and it is re- ported as uninsured" This is a most unfortunate occurrence, as the com pany had just completed arrangements for operations on a large scale and which would have been of great benefit to the district. It is more than begin the construction of another plant.
