SPEED OF SOLAR SYSTEM.
Sun, Moon and Stars Are All Going Somewhere st the Rate of
 10000 Miles an Hour.

According to Prof. Simon Newcomb, the great astronomer, the most im- portant achievement in astronomy during the nineteenth century was the determination of the rate of speed at which the solar system is moving through space. Astronomers are now able to say with certainty that the sun, moon and stars are all going some where at the rate of 10000 miles an hour. Where they started from and whither they are bound are questions which must be left for future sci entists to solve. At any rate, says the Chicago Tribune, the discovery is sui fcient to emphasize the unimportance of men in the scheme of the universe. The widest dream of human inventors looks forward to the distant day when it will be possible to travel over the surface of the earth at the rate of 100 or 200 miles in 60 minutes. Meanwhile the whole solar system sweeps through space at a rate of speed entirely be- yond human comprehension. The only way to get even a suggestion of what it means is to imagine travelling more than one and half times around the world between noon and one o'clock. Alarmists who like to picture the aw- full possibilities of a sudden failure of the laws which govern the harmony of the spheres can hardly find a more fruitful subject for their imagination than in considering what would hap pen if the solar system. now running at 10000 miles an hour. should be in stantly brought to a stop. Certainly space would be filed with flying con- fusion of scattered worlds and shfv- cred stars

 pf the Young People of the e<V>N~- Present.

There ts nothing so deplorable," said clergyman one day not long ago, "as the ignorance of the Bible which prevails among modern young folk. think the study of the book, in purely secular way, should be in- 7luded in the course in literature in every school. Aside from its religious significance, its value as an example of perfect English style is inestimable. l attended an evening party not long ago, and as I was asked to suggest some means of entertainment, wrote number of questions concerning per sons, articles and incidents men toned in the Bible, and gave each per son present three questions to answer.
 One young woman was asked what at ephod was, what was the fate of Karah and what kind of seed mama rssembled. She confessed utter iqnor- snce on all three points," quotes the Washington Post. Another was asked what kind of flowers bloomed on Aaron's rod, and when I inquired how she knew they were almond flow CTS, she said she had once used kind of almond meal with the picture of Aaron's rod on the box. Nobody knew to whom Aaron's garments were given. asked one young man whose table it was that Lazarus ate crumbs from, and he said the mans name was 'Divius,' because there was a college song he knew about Lazarus and Divius. Not one person in the room had even a superficial knowledge of the Bible. Indeed, in this latter day, to be able to quote from the Scriptures is as much a mark of rare culture as the ability to quote the Greek and Latin poets used to be. am shocked at the growing ignorance concerning the Master book, and think it matter for educators, both religious and sec- ular. to consider"

The senior Gillette during his life was one of the cOun- try's noted experts, and the entry of his son into the mining profession, after thorough course in college and in practical channels is an event which many aequaintances of the family everywhere in the west regard with pleasure and satisfaction.

INSPECTOR JOSSEY'S
 TRAGIC DEATH.
He Fires Charge of Bird Shot Into His
 Heart by Accident or Design.
He Goes Out at Four O'Clock in the Morning 0stensibIy to Kill Skunk
 and Kills Himself.

A telegram from Tucson gives de details of the tragic death of B. F.
 Jossey, charged with being implicated in the smuggling of Chinese at No gales. It says:
 A second chapter to the start ling Nogales custom house scandal was added today by the death of Chi nese inspector B. F. Jossey, which oc- cured at his home at 4 o'clock yes terday morning, the result of the ac- cidental discharge of a shot gun in his own hands.
 Jossey has for the past six months owned and operated aside from his duties as custom inspector, a poul- try yard for the raising of fine chickens. He has lately lost several of his best fowls by the onslaught of skunks. About 4 o'clock yesterday morning, hearing a disturbance in his back yard, he took his shot gun and started to the chicken yard hoping to get a shot at one of the intruders. In climbing over an intervening fence his gun was accidently discharged, the shot entering his breast just above the heart. Death occurred in stantly. In falling the gun fell on one side of the fence and the body of Jossey on the other.
 The news of his death was tele- phoned to the sheriff's office and a coroner's jury quickly impannelled to view the remains. After a few min utes deliberation they arrived at verdict to the effect that the deceased met his death by the accidental dis charge of a shot gun in his own hands. The remains were taken in charge by an undertaken to be prepared for burial.
 He leaves to mourn his loss a wife and daughter besides large circle of friends made in his travels over the territory in pursuit of his official du- ties as Chinese inspector.
 Deputy Revenue Collector S. NJ. Cullum was in Tucson the evening proceeding the tragedy and in speak ing of the affair in Phenix yesterday said that he talked with Inspector Jossey at the Tucson depot just be- fore leaving, and at that time he ap- peared to be in the best of spirits. In reply to the joking remark from Gull lom that he thought he was spending these days in jail, Jossey replied with a laugh, that he did not believe he would be there very soon, and if ever put in, it would be for such short time it would not count. In his con versatiOn with MT. Cullom he stated that the department was little pre- mature in giving out the news of his arrest to the press on Saturday, when it had been two days and he was still at liberty. He says it was the first time in his life he was ever fugitive from justice and to relieve his mind, he would like to find the man holding the warrant that the same might be served.

Mining Intelligence.

Mine owners in the upper Big Bug section of country are specially and justly elated over the building of the Big Bug railroad and the prospective starting up of the Val Verde smelteI and the Standard Smelling company's concentrating plant. These two en- terprises together will result in the more rapid development of one of the richest mining regions In the country, The terminus of the railroad will be at the mouth, on the Big Bug side of an immense tunnel which the Poland
 Mining company is driving through the mountain which divides the Big Bug region from the Lynx creek country. This tunnel is twelve feet wide and ten feet high in the clear. It has already been driven in between 900 and 1000 feet. There is an air compressor on the ground. A boiler is on the way and will be put in posi- ton soon, when work will be pushed with the greatest possible dispatch. The tunnel when completed will be 5000 feet long and will be 800 feet below the apex of the mountain. It is expected that it will cut many veins and further prove what has been demonstrated within the last few years-that Arizona mines go down. That the mines in that region go far below the tunnel has already been established, as the Penn Gold Mining company, whose properties lie on the Lynx creek side nearly on level with the tunnel, have sunk 800 feet in their Mudhole mine and are in ore. The ground above has been To- lated the whole length of the proposed tunnel, by means of which there will be development of the properties at a cost trifling in comparison with that of ordinary methods of development. It is also said that the tunnel will be used for a double track electric rail way to be constructed by the Poland Mining company, to connect with the Bradshaw Mountain railway. Thus all the supplies for the Lynx creek country, whose outlet at present is a wagon road to Prescott, will be brought in by rail from the Big Bug side and conveyed though the tunnel by the electric line. Lynx creek, a very rich mining region, will be brought nearer to the outside world by many hours and at a greatly re- duced cost of transportation.

CHAMPAGNE WATER.
Singular Excellence of the Water of Owens River fin the "GardsA
 of the GoA@.1 @

The water of one of the branches of the north fork of Owens river, near the southeastern boundary of the park, at an elevation of 5000 feet above the sea, is the most delicious l ever tasted, says John Muir. in Atlantic. It is not only delightfully."- cool and bright, sparkling, exhilarating, and so pos itively delicious to the taste that a party of friends I led to it 25 years ago still praise it, and refer to it as that wonderful champagne water" though comparatively the finest wine ia a coarse and vulgar drink. The party camped about a week in a pine grove on the edge of 8 little round sedgy meadow through which the stream ran bank full, and drank its icy water on frosty mornings before breakfast and at night about as eagerly as in the heat of the day; lying down and talk ing massy draughts direct from the brimming flood. lest the touch of cup might disturb its celestial flavor. . To what the peculiar indefnable eI- cellence of this water is due I don't know; for other streams in adjacent canyons are aired in the same way, and draw traces of minerals and plant essences from similar sources. The best mineral water yet discovered in the park flows from the Tuolumne soda springs on the north side of the Big Meadow. MOuntaineers like it and ascribe every healing virtue to it, but in no way can any of these waters be compared with the Owens river cham pagne.

rNilk for babes but meat for men. 2 When a man can no more eat a mans food, but exists on a milk and cracker diet he is gone back to babyhood. He may be a big man but he has baby s stomach.
 Success in life depends largely on the stomach. The man with the baby's stomach finds himself llso with a baby's peevishness and perversity. He has the baby's exaggerated personal sensitive ness and jealousy. He IS an annoyance to his friends and an anxiety to his family. No man can be stronger than his stomach. A weak stomach argues a weak man. And vweak stomach is the common starting point of most of the so-called uweaknesses which affect the great organs heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, etc. How can it be otherwise when the body and all its organs are dependent on the stomach for their nutrition? The vweak" stomach drags the organs down with 1t, because being weak it is unable to convert food into nutrition, and the organs of the body being starved, of necessity become weak, as consequence of starvation.
 Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It makes the weak body strong in the only way physical strength can be made, which is by food, properly digested and assimilated. The cures of uweak lungs, Uweak " heart, Uweak" or sluggish liver, "weak" kidneys, etc., which follow the use of rGolden Medical Discovery" are all due to this perfect nutrition of the body, the proof of which is the remark able gain of sound, solid flesh, which invariably marks the cure.
