stranEest Baptism on Record.

An extraordinary ceremony was performed. in Cape Town few weeks ago. A lion tanner had been giving ar exhibition for several days. and one evening he informed the audience that he had just become a father and he intended to baptize the in fant on the following day in the lions cage. Those who heard him thought he was joking, but when they reached the exhibition hall the next evening they found that he was in dead earnest.
 In the cage he stood, surrounded by his assistants, and near him were seated three women-his wife, one of her friends and the godmother ,of the infant. To the left of them stood the clergyman, holding the ;babyiin his arms, and behind him was a pi gantic African named Leo, who was to act as godfather on the occasion Facing this fearless group were two huge lions, whose every action showed that they were .immeasure. ably surprised at the intrusion of so many strangers into their domicile. Moreover, their surprise was the greater since, in honor of the event. their cage was wreathed with flowers and splendidly iHImintaed with cleo! tric lights. "
 The ceremony was duly performed, and while it lasted the lions behaved With perfect propriety," much to the satisfaction and surprise of the i'm mense crowd which thronged the hall.

l The law governing the publication

 have been ignored in spite of thefact that the litigant paid for the pubfica- .tiQn. The recent. Legislature passed a law which provides that parties who pay for such notices may have them published in thefpapeFof their choice. Threads as follows:a. A <

WANTED TO EXHIBIT PRESIDENT.

In its attacks on Governor Murphy
 in connection with the presidential
 visit the Phenix Enterprise stands
 alone. Even the democratic papers
 of the territory do not approve of the
 Enterprise methods, but con-
 demn them in unmeasured terms
 The whole thing, briefly stated, is that
 the presidents ,.yisit, to Arizona was
 brought about solely by Governor N. 10. Murphy. Had it not been for the
 personal efforts of the governor, the
 presidential train would have steamed 'thropgR thetterEitory sFithoutga single Iistop, except tAose1 required bHthe railroad 4nn running sthe train. fPhe suggestion to the president that he visit the Congress mine was not only favorably received by him, bqtaat once became a sttong Sdesire. IA very small coterie Of Phonecians seemed
 to have misapprehension of the real object of securing the party to visit the territory. Instead of getting them te-come to entertain the people, the object was to entertain the party. To stand public official up at a given place and let hundreds or thousands of people file along and shake him by the hand is a'species of cruteltywhich should no longer bet toferated.l Du--, i ing theaa pfesideptiala visit tthe party was given an, opportunity, of seeing one of the territory's richest gold pro- dgcing mipes. On itheir return trip to FhenG view was obtained iof.our most prominent mountain ranges; also view of an Arizona. desert. just as it came from natures architect; the ab- rupt dividing line between the desert and a beautifnb and ferthes oasis ere ated by human energy could also be seen. A drive through the valley dis closed thesdiversify of products which Garp be produced son the D desert with the aid of water. For presenting all these things to the observation of the presidential party, the Epterprise has had nothing but words of abuse for Governosa Murphy, simply becauseshe would not become party to turning the. president oyer to the small coteriie of Phenix politicians who desired to pose before the public as managers of a presidentia! show. ~ da <t

A SUFFERING WIFE
Saved by the Suggestion of a
 Thoughtful Husband.

A man can rarely enter into a wonan's sufferings when they are caused by dis eases peculiarly feminine. Even when the character of the suffering is graph ically described the man cannot appre- ciate the force of terms for which he has no equivalent in his experience. All he can do is to sympathize and suggest.
 But when woman hears the story of a womans suffering every word has it's just weight with her. Even more, she

 1t is shown that more than mil lion square milessof Canada territory is yet unexplored.

The indications are, he said, that during the next five years at least 5000 miles of new railroad will be completed throughout the Dominion, most of which will run through the eunexplored wilderness, as iEis recognized that railroads are essential to the opening of this vast territory.
