The body of the opera house was
filled and there was a sprinkling OF
people in the galleries. No consider
able applause appeared at first and it
looked as though the applause brigade
which had been so carefully instructed
and stationed in different parts of the
house would fail to carry out their
part ofthe programme. 1t became evil
dent, however, that they lacked only
intelligent leadership, for when Mr.
John Ray at last took his position
upon the stage, a due measure of ap-
applause appeared at the proper times
and in response to the proper signals.
The singing of the glee club was really
good whatever may be said OF the sen.
timents OF the songs rendered. Mr..
Deckabach quite distinguished him.
self by rendering in . highly artistic
manner a most difficult obligato solo,
the verbal burden OF which ran, "Tell
us, Democrats, what makes you so
blue 2" If the head of the Wilson
push in this city had sang half dozen
more verses and pressed for an answer
to the query he might not have con.
sidered the reply as complimentary to
his vocal abilities.

Dollars VS.. Human Rights.

That was the dominant note of the
speeches at the Republican rally last
Saturday night and the dollars seemed
to have the best OF it. As matter OF
fact nothing at all was said about hu-
man rights. Something was said
about glory and providence and pros
perity and the flag was waved over it
all as though, like sweet charity, it
could be counted on to hide multi
tude OF SINS" But the real and cen.
trail theme was the trade to be had
and the dollars to be made by hang
ing on to the Philippines. The NOR
ality OF the proposition and the influ-
ence at home calculated to undermine
our own system of free government,
likely to result from our laying vio-
lent hands upon the liberties of other
people, was not even considered.
Ed Stevens was all right. He was
modest and natural and made very
sensible ten-minute talk on the money
to be made by holding the Philippines.
Some old-fashioned folk did not quite
agree with his idea that the money to
be made out of policy of national
wrong-doing is the real paramount
issue. But all the same Ed was all
right and his many Olympian friends
were quick to show their appreciation
OF his effort. Naturally they could do
no less fer Ed. He was quite unaf-
fected, and happily made no effort to
attain the strained and stilted oratori-
cal style Of the Sparticus who followed
him.

declared, "By the gift OF God these
possessions have come into the hands
OF this nation" Some Republicans
have been saying that they are ours
because we bought them, paying
therefor 2O,OOO,OOO in good red gold.
But then Of course we would not have
had the 20,OOO,OOO but for the "Me
and god" prosperity that is embarras-
sing the American people and so it
really amounts to the same thing.

A WOMAN'S MISFORTUNE
Gives Some One an Opportunity tc
 Prove His Honesty.

MT and Mrs. Crow are an elderly couple, live five miles northeast of the city on the Cave Creek road. MT. Crow is not in good health and 1t de- wolves upon his wife to do the shopping and business of the family in town. Thursday afternoon she came to town for the purpose of paying some bills they owed and transacting some other business. She put her purse, contain ing $22.15 and some receipts into l leather handbag or satchel, which also contained other papers valuable only to herself and husband, two pairs of spec tacles, three pairs of scissors and a number of old letters addressed to Mrs. Jennie M. Crow. The handbag Was placed on the buggy seat.
 Arriving at the postoffice she got her mail, which contained several lettres and placed them unopened in the bag.
 By this time the big dust and wind storm came up and she decided to re- turn home before the threatened rain postpOning her business. On the way home she stopped for a minute at the residence of Mrs. Harrington on North Third street, where she borrowed e Nlop "illCIl ollS EletCGu ONGi NilN satchel. By this time it was quite dark and she started for home. Arriving there she discovered that the satchel had fallen out along the road.
 The money, though not a very large sum, meant great deal to her, as she had been very frugal in her expendi lures and worked hard to save the few dollars she needed so badly. So she turned the horse toward Phoenix again and went over the lonesome road once more searching for the lost handbag. The search proved fruitless and she re- turned home at l o'clock in the moron- ing, pretty we'll discouraged. As soon as it got daylight she again drove over the road but could not find the missing handbag.
 It looks very much as though some person else had found it and if so he will be poor both in purse and spirit if he does not return it. Mrs. Crow is a most deserving woman and needs the money badly. still, she says, she would be willing, if necessary. to let the finder Keep the money providing the papers, letters. and spectacles are returned.
 There can be no possible doubt an the part of the finder as to it's owner ship as the letters are ample indentif- cation.

ALABAMA POLITICS
Democratic Victory, Monday, Expected
 As Matter-of- Course.

Birmingham. Ala, Aug. 4.-The state one of tthe quietest for number of years. Monday full state ticket from governor down will be elected There one of the quietest for a number of lican tickets, the democoratic ticket, the prohibition ticket, and the ticket named by the populist party. The can didates for governor are:- Colonel Sam ford, democrat; Rev. J. L. Harget. pro- hibitionist; Dr. C. B. Crow, populist John A. Steele, republican; and Charles P. Lane, candidate of the Bing- ham faction of the republican party. The election of the democratic ticket is conceded by all parties. The populist party, which boiled for Bryan and Watson 24,OOO votes in the election of four years ago to 1O7. .O00 for Bryan and Sewell, 54. 900 for Mckinley and 6.400 for the gold democratic ticket. is believed to have lost much strength throughout the state during the last few years. The party is making no great fight for the state ticket, but is devoting the most of its energies to an effort to keep in line the counties which have hither- to gone to that party. The campaign has been waged mainly on local issue and in many of the counties the dis pensary question will have much to do with the election of members of the legislature.

New York. Aug. At the close of business today Russell Sage receiva | several congratulatory telegram g which reminded him that he is on the threshold of the S5th year of his life. MT. Sage celebrated his birthday just as he has done during tht last thirty or forty years, by going to his office and buryng himself deep in business and attending the meetings of several of the corporations with which he is connected. He has not taken a holiday for many years, and he says that he feels like cat in a strange garret if he stays away from business. To a Wall street friend who congratulated the great financier upon his excellent health, the latter said: ''I am nearly S0 and l have worked hard. but I feel as young today as I did twenty five years ago. I will tell you the secret of happy, cOntented. interested old age. Keep in the harness. Keep right after your business. whatever it is. As long as man tends to business he will have clear head, light heart and will be as spry as the rest of them till he is as old as I am. It keeps the mind busy and the body strong"

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
A Pedestrian Passes Another Matter
 Up to the Council.

To the Editor of The Republican, Dear Sir: Judging from the condition of the streets in Phoenix one would not suppose for a moment there was any scarcity of water in the valley. l. is mud everywhere. People are obliged to walk blocks in a vain effort to find dry crossing on which to get to the opposite side of the street. Why the men who drive the sprinkling carts are not required to turn off the water at the crossings Cnot only in the busi- ness portion, but all over the city). is something which many pedestrians would like to know. Certainly a little dust on the crossings is preferable to so much mud.

mere is no longer any question as 10 the superiority of bevel gears for power transmission in a bicycle. One of the first models of the Columbia Bevel-Gear Chainless ever built was ridden upwards of 29,0O0 miles on the road without serious wear of mechan- ism-a test which no chain wheel could have endured. Track records show the speed of the chainless so far to exceed that of the chain wheel that compal = ison is Use less. The economy of driv- ing power in combination with the durability and cleanliness afforded by the chainless was fully appreciated by the cycling public during the season of 1899. It is obvious that the advan- tages 9f bevel-gear construction must, if anything. be more conspicuous with the drop frame than with the diamond frame, especially on account of there LCng nothing whatever to interfere with the rid, r's freeion of action. The chainiess has nothihS to entangle ;he skirt, nothing to interfere with the quickest possible mount or 6ismOunt from either side. The 5esa with Whis Il it may be kept clean and the fact tht.t the mechanism pra ticdily maintains itself in perfect order, make it espec- ially desirable for the woman rider. The nea tnsss of the enclosed gear, the refined lines of the frame and the at tractive finish of the whole impart to this model a graceful appearance and style found in no other bicycle for women. Prices of chainless bicycles have been so reduced that now they are no higher than some makes of chain wheels. E. L. Andrews 6 Son have them at s5O $6O and s75, and each wheel is guaranteed perfect ard to make the rider no trouble.

In money matters are the Irish. A

Guilty, though the proprietor never saw
him before and never heard of the
drawer. Bank notes are very largely
used. as almost every bank in the coun-
try issues notes worth FL, e., t3, II
and upward, and they are all looked
upon as being quite as good as gold.
But Bank of England notes. even in
the large towns, are looked upon with
suspicion, while in remote places peo-
pie won't take them at all. 1t Is said
that this suspicion of English notes Is
hereditary.
From the time of James III up to 70

wanted to pay 900 in England he had
to remit Els 6s. Sd, while II he were
being paid debt by an Englishman
he received only fS5. Naturally he
thought rather badly of English money,
and in the 100 years during which this
state of things continued the Irish peo-

teenth century: "All Jews were forced
to live in the narrow, miserable, over
crowded Judcngasse dew street,, their
sole abode since the year 1462. At the
beginning of night all the inhabitants
of the ghetto were locked in. They
were not allowed to use the sidewalk
while walking in the street in the day
time, but had TO take the middle of the
street. They had to remove their hats
before every passerby, who would call
out. Jew. make your bowr
'"ro prevent too large an increase not
more than ii couples were permitted to
marry in any one year, On every fes-
tive occasion they were driven into the
ghetto. on Sunday the gates were
locked regularly at 4 o'clock, and no
one was allowed to pass by the guard
at the gate except when on an errand
with prescription to the drug store or
for the purpose of mailing a letter.
One general rule was no Jew allowed
on green spot" Napoleon abolished
this state of affairs in 1910, but it was
restored after his downfall.
