Talking Man of samoa.

Samoa's talking man, or ''Tolafali," !" is a character. All the affairs of state of the village in which he holds office are carried upon his shoulders. In ordi- nary he is the chief adviser, persuader, convincer and restrainer of the leading chiefs. Having the gift of eloquence, he makes the most of it. He enjoys i'm munity from many things. He cannot be spoken of in ordinary terms. If it should be necessary to speak of his eyes or his mouth or his limbs, special honor able words must be used-words which attach to him alone and have never been applied to the personal parts of ordinary men. As he stands to deliver his soft, persuasive, mellifiuous oratory, with staff of office in his hand and his fly duster thrown over his shoulder, anyone can see that he is man of great importance, or, if this is not apparent from his attitude, it may be gathered from the attention paid to his utter ances by gray-haired chiefs and by youths and maidens. If the talking man is a clever fellow and understands his business, he is the chief ruling pow CT of his tribe, although the nominal headship is always vested in chief or patriarchial figurehead.-N.

There are only two carriages in town. One belongs to the archbishop, and the other carriage is the property of the government and one of the perquisites that pertain to the presidential power. It is an ordinary landau imported from Paris in pieces and put together by To- cal talent, and native artist has paint ed upon the panels of the doors bril- liant reproduction of the coat of arms of the republic, about foot square, in the national colors-green, yellow and red. This is greatly admired by the populace, who see the carriage only oc- casionally, on state occasions, when it is drawn by four big black horses wear ing harness heavily mounted with sil- yer and decorated with rosettes, tassels and streamers of the national colors.- La Paz (B6lfvfaf Pr ], 'Ta. a..T1cac0 Record.

Ex-Governor F. A. Tritle returned on Wednesday from St. Louis where he has been residing during the past year or more. He acquired quite extensive mining interests in South ern Missouri and Arkansas during his absence but returns to Arizona to attend to his duties as supervisor of census of this territorv. T he governor is one of the most popular men in Arizona, and he has received most cordial welcome from his nu- merous friends on his return.
 The sheep shearing corrals which have heretofore been located on the Arizona canal, are this season placed at Cave creek nearly ten miles north of the post office Sbearing began 0n Monday, the 22d, and from 30 to 90 shearers will be at work daily for month to come. There are now on hand 100000 sheep to be sheared. The relocation has been made nec- essary by the drought of the past few months, and the absence of feed on the plains from the Arizona canal north to the base of the Cave Creek mountains. Even if rain should come this month the shear ing will not be moved to the old location. The wool will be shipped from PhenIx.-Gazette.
 The execution of Francisco Garcia is set for next Friday, February 2. The Mexican consul at Phenix has recently become interested in this case and is taking legal steps to pre- vent the execution of the sentence on the day named. J. E.. Morrison and G. Arthur Allen have been re- iained by him to take an appeal in the case, but under the statute 1t is doubtful if an appeal can now be taken. The foundation for appeal in such cases is supposed to be taken at the conclusion of the trial by the filing of motion for a new trial. No such motion was filed in Garcia's case. In case 1t will be found that an appeal will not lie, the case will be taken before the governor on an application for communication of sen tence. No special preparations for the execution have yet been com menced by the sheriff's office.

The word nAdmlral.n

The word admiral IS Of Arabic
origin, and dates back 20 the time Of
fhe Crusades; IL is but another form OF
The familiar Eastern titles, Emir and
Ameer, and simply signifies prince. The
ID is intrusive and there is no connec-
ton with the Latin mare" the sea, or
with the root from which we get adj
miral. In European mouths the word
has been variously contotted; the Teu-
tonic races have introduced the d and
suaixed, instead prefixing the article,
or we may consider Il as a contraction
OF some such phrase as Admiral Bahr
prince OF the sea. The Portuguese
again, have taken the article for tbs
first syllable, and make Almirante, hui

Of the word. AS a ration the Arabs

An Historic Farm.

The Warwick farm Of SIS acres, five
miles from Spring Field, Chester Coun-
~. Pa, around which cluster interest
ing memories, was the other day sold
by the heirs Of Thomas X. Sterrett ID
Albert Maerz, OF Reading, for $4,000.
On the farm stood the old Warwick
furnace, built in 1880, and at which
many of the cannons used in the Rev
dictionary army were cast. In the
meadows many Of them were buried to
prevent them from falling into the
hands Of the British after tho battle OF
Brandywine, in 1777, when General
washington and his army were re-
treating northward through Chester
County, leaving this important iron
furnace exposed to the mercy Of the
enemy.
Several OF the cannons were dug M
and some sent to the Centennial Expo
