Wood is Wood.

Owing to the government having stopped indiscriminate cutting of wood upon the public domain, all wood now coming into Nogales is compelled to pay stumpage of one dollar per cord, and the supply is greatly diminished. To meet the in- creased cost the woodward of Hogan & Co. will hereafter charge seven dol lars per cord for wood, and no wood will leave the yard to fill any order without the cash in advance.

A PACIFIC COAST CANDIDATE.

Word comes from the east that if the Pacific coast will unite upon candidate for the republican vice presidential nomination the choice of the party will fall to tue gentle man. That being the case there is a strong movement setting toward presentation of Hon. Irving M. Scott of California for the high honor.
 MT. Scott would make an ideal candidate. As an employer of labor upon grand scale he has always maintained the most cordial relations with the working pop ulation, and enjoys their good will and confidence throughout the en- tire country. AS constructor of the battlesbip Oregon, the cruisers Olympia, Charleston and others, which have done such good work in the Spanish war, MT. Scott has rendered the country patriotic and splendid service which deserves to rank with the feats of arms per- formed by Miles. Shalter, Roose- welt, Dewey, Schley and Sampson. If superbly handling battleship or a fleet makes man presidential possibility surely making battle ship so she will meet every de- mand made from the coming tower, is service of sufficient value to command recognition as great.
 In the creation and upbuilding of the great industry at the head of which he stands and in its superb management. MT. Scott has shown himself a man fitted to any com mand or station. He is one of the great men of the country, and his nomination would be a credit to the party and would add great strength to the ticket.

Where do all the acrobats and tumb-
lers come from? Where do they learn
their trade? There is no school, as
such, for the training of men who i'm
peril their lives for a living. An old
acrobat solved these questions when
he told where he had learned to leap
and turn springs in the air and fall
on the back of his neck without in
juring himself. Most of the circus ac-
robats and not a few of the rough and
tumble comedians of the stage, who
have graduated from the ring, were
reared and learned the rudiments of
their business in the lumber towns
or the northwest. In the business"
these are known as "sawdust towns"
on account Of the sawmills. which are
their chief industry. There are many
Of these in Wisconsin and Michigan
and several in Iowa hat have turned
out the bulk of the acrobats and tumb-
lers in the business.
In the "sawdust towns the small
boys have exceptional faculties for
learning to turn handsprings in the
great beds Of sawdust that surround
the mills: Soon they begin to try
the more difficult feats they see done
in the shows that visit the towns. At
ter school hours they tumble until
1t is time to go home and do the
chores" From out of them all there
generally rise two or three boys who
get the knaCk of the acrobatic feats
and these work in constant rivalry,
each trying to excel the other.
One day along comes a circus and
the best boy tumbler applies for a job
and shows what he can do. Perhaps
he is given a chance as a top
mounter," or the top man in a pyra-
mid act, because he is light and ac-
tive. When he gets older, heavier
and stronger he may become an I'm
~derstander," or one of the men who
help to hold a mountain of men on
their shoulders. And thus he gets
into the show business. If he works
hard and studies he may become a
good acrobat in time But he got his
start on a sawdust pile.-New York

Food for Dyspeptics.

Dyspepsia is the most common COM
plant Of all, and one for which diet
ing is a very insistent necessary. The
dyspeptic may take thin soup of beef,
mutton or oysters, but must avoid rich
soups and chowders. The fish list Of
what TO eat includes raw oysters, shad,
cod, perch, bass and fresh mackerel.
There is a liberal choice in meats, beef,
mutton, chicken, lamb, tripe, tongue,
calf's head. broiled chopped meat,
sWeetbread, game and tender steak,
making up the list. Eggs may be eat
en- boiled, poached or raw. Farinaceous
foods good for the d%yspeptic are:
Cracked wheat, hominy, rolled oats,
rice, sage, tapioca, crackers, dry toast,
stale bread. corn bread, whole wheat
bread, graham bread, rice cakes. Spin
ach seems to be a much approved vege-
table; it leads the list of those allowed
in this course of dieting and is follow
ed by sweet corn, string beans, green
peas, lettuce, crosses, celery, chicory,
asparagus. For the rest, the man or
the woman who has fallen a victim to
dyspepsia must conine the taste for
desserts to rice, tapioca, OF farina puG-
ding, junket, custards, baked apples,
apple snow, apple tapioca, ripe fruits
raw or stewed, and for drinks to the
one cup Of weak tea, coffee, cocoa, milk
and hot water in equal parts, or one
glass of cool water slipped after eating.
