A Requiem of Nature.

ITO have heard the wild and mournful
death chant in which thousands of Kanaka
men and women Joined when the body of
their dead king. Kalakaua, was brought
back to Honolulu from the United States on
the cruiser Charleston was to have listened
to a requiem of nature that has PERTAINS
never been equaled. And the cragginess of
against the leper wall which, from shores
thronged with relatives and friends, never
to be seen again, Is an aloha carried over
the waters 10 the lepers departing in the
leper steamer for the leper island of Molo-
kai.
The social lie of the white population in

What a great modiste In Paris wills fate
wills, and some of the most powerful have
decreed that box plated and gathered
skirts are to be Worn. Whether this is per-
manent or not remains to be proved, but
the idea has had a certain following for the
present at all events. La jupe bonnie
femme comes to the rescue of women who
have no hips, this portion of the anatomy
being banished from our calculations in so
far as fashion is concerned; neither is 1t
suited to stout figures. The plaits at the
back and sides taper toward the waist to
about three inches wide, but they are more
than double that width at the foot. In
front the plaits are much narrower. This
gives the effect of a close-fitting but most
becoming sheath. 1t looks very well in
black and white cameps hair, striped, with
a boX-plaited bodice and deep sash, the
bertha cut in tabs and fringed. Yokes to
skirts form good heading to these box
plaits. especially when the tunic is draped
at the back, but they have to be made of
soft, falling material.

MR. JOSEPH J. PHEBY, who has been in charge of the Silver King mine for the past three years, is here as dele gate to the Republican county con vention which assemblies to-day. Mir. Pheby is being urged by his friends to submit his name as candidate for the Legislative Council. He is a bright, active and intelligent young man, being graduate of the Univer- sity of California, class of '08, and possesses all the qualifications neces- sary for useful legislator. The TRI- BUNE is glad to see men of Mir. Pheby's character willing to devote couple of months time to the good of their country. Should he be willing to rep resent Pinal county in the lower house there would be little doubt of his election.
The Florence tribune., 1900-09-15

ALREADY can be heard mutterings about county division, and an effort will be made to defeat George P Blair for the Council on that issue, although he is pronounced against it. Mir. Blair is an honorable man, unpurchasable, and will do as he says. Pinal county will honor itself quite as much as it will Mir. Blair by having such man to rep resent us, after the disgraceful ex- perience with Doe. Wright and men of that fix who were openly for sale. The fact that Doc. Wright came from Mammoth did not hinder earnest sup port for him two years ago among peo- pie of this section as disreputable as himself-why should it be laid up against Mir. Blair now.

Legislative Council.
From the Tucson star.l

As far as learned the nominees for the legislative council by the respect i've democratic county conventions are gentlemen of ability, and will do honor to the upper house of the Arizona leg islature. Yuma nominated Senator Eugene S. Ives, an able lawyer; Mari copa county Dr. J. B. Ford, mining engineer, skilled, fine business man Yavapai, Judge J. D. Andrews, a good lawyer aud practical legislator; Pinal, Geo. P. Blair, fine lawyer and suc- cessful mining man; Graham, c. NJ. Shannon, successful mining man, good newspaper man and experienced in Arizona legislative mysteries.
 If the remaining counties will nomi- nate as capable, worthy and qualified members to the council, the legislativ e council of the 2lst Arizona legislature will be the ablest and best of record in the territory.

THE democratic county ticket in some respects is strong and very weak iu others. If the republicans in con vention to-day take advantage of the mistakes of their opponents, they will elect several officials in this county. As the editor of the TRIBUNE did not participate in the democratic prima- ries and took no part in the county convention, he feels at liberty to advocate the election of men whom he considers to be best fitted for con- ducting the local affairs of Pinal county. At the same time, the TRIBUNE will labor earnestly for the election of Bryan and Stevenson and Mark Smith, having firm and abiding belief in the grand principles which those gentle men reptesent. But no peanut poli- fician, whose only qualification for of fee is that he needs it, can secure the support of this paper. If it comes to question of two evils we shall choose the least.

TWO CANDIDATES.
Mark A. Smith and J. F. Wilson Nominated for Delegate to
 Congress.
The Most Exciting Convention in the His
 tory of the Territory.

The Territorial Democratic Conven- tion which assembled in Phoenix Wednesday was the occasion of one of the bitterest political fights in the his tory of Arizona. The contest was over the nomination for delegate to- Congress, for which Mark Smith had clear majority, but the Wilson faction organized contesting delegation from Maricopa, on technical grounds, which gave them a majority of eight on pre- liminary organization. Secretary Frank Trott refused to receive the credentials of tue contestants and the row began. Charley Shannon, who stands for Smith, and Reese Ling, who favors Wilson, were nominated. Temporary Chairman Trott announced Shanuon's election, but Parish rtssed out Maricopa county and pronounced Ling the successful candidate. Shan non was then carried to the stage and his bodyguard formed blockade at the stage entrance to prevent the center rush which the Ling people were forming.
 The tension was so intense that every body in the convention hall rose to his feet and howled. Parish, who was still on the rostrum, paled and trembled and in the midst of the furore the Ling bonn bardment at the stage entrance was successful. Ling then sprang upon the stage triumphantly, and there were three chairmen, each attempting to control the convention, when civil authorities interfered and pandemonium ensued. The sheriff and City Marshal and their deputies brought order out of chaos and a recess was taken till o'clock, when report of conference committee was re- eeived authorizing two chairmen-an unheard of proceeding. An adjourn ment was then taken till So'clock D. ID. {.
 At the evening session the dead lock continued, as it did all day Thursday and up to Friday afternoon, when the factions of the double-headed conven- tion, coming to the conclusion that DO agreement could be reached, each nominated it's favorite and adjourned and so there are now two democratic candidates for delegate to Congress in the field.

An AntI-AIcohol Serum.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-The French Academy of Medicine has been advised of the discovery of an anti-alcohol serum. The reputed discoverers, Drs. Sapelier, Thebault and Broca, state their experiments prove that horse fed for certain time on doses of al- cohol and food mixed with alcohol, fur nished a serum antiethyline, which, injected into victims of the alcohol habit, gave them an absolute distaste for the liquor. In second communi- cation to the academy Dr. Sapelier said that of fifty-seven cases of drunk ards treated by the serum thirtv-two were successful; 15 per cent. had their condition improved, and the failures, amounting to 9 per cent, were caused by improper treatment or physical defects.

"He's only printer" Such was the sneering remark made recently by one of the female leaders of our local aristocracy-the codfish quality. Who was the Earl of Stanhope? He was only a printer. What were Prince Edward William and the Prince Napoleon? Proud to call themselves printers. The present Czar of Russia and the Duke of Battenburg are print CTS, and the Emperor of China worked in a private printing office almost every day.
 William Cexton, the father of Eng fish literature, was practical printer. What were C. P. Willis, James Gale, James Parker, Horace Greedy, Charles Dickens, James Buchanan, Simon Cameron and Schuyler Collax2 Prin- ters all, and practical ones. Also Bayard Taylor, the poet.
 Mark Twain, Amos Cummings, Bret Hart, Opie Reid are plain printers. So were Artemus Ward, Petroleum V. Nasby and Slut Lovingwood. Senator Plumb was a printer and so is Cover nor Jas. Hogg, of Texas, Bucky O'Neil, and the leader of science and philo- sophy, Benjamin Franklin, in his day made it his boast that he was printer.
 It is not every one that can be a prirter-brains are absolutely neces- sary. Furthermore, it is no disgrace to be printer.-TSilver Lake Record.

Bryan Victory Predicted.
[Associated Press Reportl

CHICAGO, Sept. 11.-There was re- joicing to-day at Democratic headquar- ters over the result of the election in Maine. Secretary Walsh and National Committeeman Johnson prepared set of figures based on their per cent. gains in Maine, on which they claim the fol- lowing States for Bryan: Maryland by majority of 5000; Indiana, by sO,- GOO; Michigan, S5, 900; Minnesota, 1000 1; Kentucky, 75,OOO; West Virginia, 2O,- 00O; California, 45, ,OO0; Delaware, 2, 2,O00 i; North Dakota, 5000; Illinois, S7,OO0.
 "The Democratic gain in Maine was 23 per cent. said National Committee man Johnson, land the Republican loss was F per cent, based on the vote cast in 1896. If similar results are obtained in other States now claimed by the Republicans, Mir. Bryan cannot fail of election. The ratio, if maintained in New York, would not give us that State, but it would cut down the Republican major ity to 153.OO0 from the majority of 26S, 900 in 1896.
 "The result is more than gratifying, coming after the Republican slump in Vermont. It shows that the Repub- licaps of Maine are dissatisfied.
 William J. Bryan, who remained in his room at the Auditorium Hotel all day preparing a number of speeches, declined to discuss the Maine election further than to say that the result was no more gratifying than he had ex- pected, and that similar Democratic gains would follow all over the coun- try in the November election.

THE disaster at Galveston, Texas, last Saturday, was most appalling, and the loss of life is estimated to be about 5,O00 and one-half of the city was de- stroyed. It was occasioned by tornado from the Gulf which caused the waters to overspread the island to a depth of ten or twelve feet. Relief is flowing from every direction, but no assistance can reach the dead or compensate the living for the terrible losses of loved ones that have been sustained.

General Mix Up.


Considerable amusement was created
on Main street yesterday evening in
which P. j. Supp's delivery horse, bi-
cycle and a loaf of bread figured conspic-
uously. The Supp bread wagon was
standing in front OF II. L. Phillips gro-
Gerry store, when a gentleman rode up on
a bicycle. which he stood up against the
hitching post in front Of the store. In =
basket on the front Of the wheel were \
number Of packages among them being
q loaf of bread. No sooner had the man
entered the store than the horse, which
was not tied. walked up to the wheel
and began devouring the bread. With
profound apologies for the animals bad
behavior. Mr.. Supp replaced the bread
with a whole loaf and backed the horse
away from the wheel No sooner had
the horse been left again however, than
it Immediately walked forward and, TAX
ing the bicycle firmly in it's teeth, start
cd down the street. Many jests were
flung at Mr.. Supp by those who had
witnessed the performance but that gen.
tleman took it all very good naturedly.

No Extra Session.

Washington, July 1.-THE cabinet
met at 2:3O this afternoon, less than an
hour after the president reached the
White House.
Over a hundred newspaper men
throngsd the corridors while the cabinet
was sitting behind closed doors. The
scene resembled the hottest days Of the
Spanish war.
There were present Secretaries Hay,
Root, Long. Gage and Postmaster Cen
eral Smith.
At the conclusion Of tho sessions,
which lasted two and half hours, Sec
rotary Root gave out tho following for
NAL statement of the action of the cabi-
net:
"The president has determined that
tho facts now known to US do not re-
quire or justify calling an extra session
OF congress. Should future develop
ments indicate that he is unable to do
what is required with the means now at
his command and the action Of congress
is necessary to furnish either meA or
money or authority, he will not hesitate
to call it together"

Young HoOdIums.

Last night number Of very young
hoodlums. urged on and abetted by q
number OF larger hoodlums, attacked the
laundry Of Quong Youn on South Fourth
street.
Some one with good stuffed club
should have been about to give tho big
hoodlums taste of justice.
The kids ran down Fourth street and
threw stones from the opposite side OF
the street, breaking the windows of the
shop.
Quite a crowd gathered on the corner
Of Main and Fourth streets but none
seemed to have tho nerve to shame the
boys.
Marshal Allison was notified Of the
matter later on and said that il the
parties who had urged the little boys on
were caught he would throw them into
Jail.
Quong Youn nor any Of his brethren
in this city, or in fact in almost any OF
the cities of this country, have had
nothing whatever to do with the out
iokoo tAot A0VO OSCuEEou III LILO
provinces of China.
AS has been stated in these columns
before. they do not speak the language
Of the Boxers, and there is no reason,
because the Chinese have acted like bar
barians in China, in their treatment of
Americans and every other nationality.
that our people should descend to their
level.
The English speaking people OF the
world have taken upon themselves the
regeneration Of the world and it is
therefore necessary for us to act the
example.
Quong Youn, who has lived in peace
here for many years, disturbed by no
one. and disturbing none, feels highly
incensed over the outrage, as he has a
right to be. and the authorities should
prosecute to the fullest extent OF the
law any outragss which may be perpe-
trated against the Cinnamon of this city
or any that may be in contemplation.
