Aping an un-Americsn Custom.

Investigation of the charges of haz- ing at West Point has brought out the disgusting fact that our future army officers are aping a thoroughly un- American custom of the English schools-the flag" system. The flag system makes menial of tse lower classman. He is selected Ly some of the upper classmen and required to make up his bed, sweep out his quar- ters, empty his slops and do all the disagreeable drudgery for which stu dents elsewhere employ servants. It is marvellous that students at West Point should submit to this sort of treatment or that the officers in charge should tolerate it.-Indianapolis Press.

The mayor of Hiawatha, Kan, re: signed because the councilmen were in attendance at revival service and refused to leave to attend the regular weekly council meeting. When a re- vival shakes town with such earnest ness as to get the city council down on its knees, it's ten to one that the town will be better of for such re- vival. Think of such spectacle among the municipal statesmen of Los An geles, Huh!-Los Angeles Times.
 The total reduction of the war tax contemplated by the senate bill will be between S40,000,O00 and S45,OOO,- 600. The house cut the tax on cigars weighing more than three pounds per 1000 from S3.60 to $500. The senate committee considered this too much of a cut, and compromise of S3.30 will, it is believed, be agreed upon.

If Jelfries wants to keep what respect he has he would do well to make a break for his old job at boiler making, and use his muscle at a more honorable and legitimate busi- ness than is his present occupation.

LAST NIGHTS BANQUET.
An lmprOmptu Affair Which Proved Highly Successful From Social
 Standpoint.

The editor of the Journal Miner, on account of illness, was unable to be present at the banquet given last evening by the citizens of Pres colt to visiting legislators, but from parties who were present learns that it was a very pleasant affair. The banquet was prepared by Messrs Burke & Hickey and given at the Sherman house. The menu was very elaborate, and ample justice was done to it. Mayor Bnrmister acted as toastmaster and the speeches were very eloquent, Senator Ives, of Yuma, being extremely felicitous in his re- marks.
 Covers were laid for fifty, there b. ing over a dozen members of the leg islature and attaches present and the remainder of the company being of prominent citizens of Prescott.
 Members of the legislature prt t were as follows:

A NARROW ESCAPE.
A New York Young Lady While in a Trance Barely Escapes
 Being Buried Alive.

A New York telegram of recent date says that Miss Louise Schaefer, whose startling escape from being buried alive while in trance, is still ill, but may recover.
 The undertaken was in the room and was preparing the body on ice preliminary to embalming when Dr. Ward, the family physician, came into the room. He had been sent for to give the final order to the undertaken, and there was no thought that the girl was not dead.
 q thought it only prudent" said Dr. Ward, "to make sure that she was dead, and I bent over and examined her neck over the carotoid artery. There was no pulsation. I then ap- piled the stethescope and the action of the heart and lungs was so slight that I again thought that there was no life in the body; but on trying it again I thought I detected a slight response. I then tried the mirror test and found that there was a sugges ton of moisture on the glass. The undertaken was watching me at the time and when he saw the moisture his eyes almost went out of his head. He stammered, Doctor, I guess I'm not needed in this case at all.'
 q then held lighted candle close to the eye and detected slight dila- ton of the pupil. I gave Miss Schae- fer rather powerful injection of nitro glycerine, and evidences of life be- came more manifest. At the end of about an hour 1 returned to Miss Schaefer, the heart action was slightly stronger, but she had not regained consciousness. I gave another injec- ton of nitro glycerine and remained the greater part Of the afternoon at the house. Toward 5 o'clock Miss Schaefer opened her eyes, slightly turned her head and began to ask questions. She improved steadily and at the end of three or four days she was removed to hospital, where she is at present"
 "Will she recoverl" the doctor was asked.
 "She is in a very low condition," said Dr. Ward, land her recovery un- der the circumstances would be very unusual"
 What is the matter with heri"
 q don't know of any better word than malassimilation of food. She can't eat anything. Her nervous sys- tenn is shattered"
 Miss Schaefer was a teacher in the public schools. Formal notice of her death was telegraphed to the board by her family and the fact was sol emnly noted on the school records.

Last Nights Entertainment.

While lhe audience at last nights entertainment was not large, what was lacking in numbers was compensated for in enthusiasm, though, while good thingst an entertainment, does not pay han rent, hotel bills or em- ployees' wages. Mir. Lee, however, went through the evenings entertain ment just as cheerfully though as If every chair in the house were full or as if every outburst of applause from each one present contributed a half dollar to the receipts. A number of new volunteers presented themselves on the stage, some of them proving better subjects than any of those vol unteering previously, while others seemed to fail to catch on" to the suggestive or hypnotic influence. As in each of his entertainments, MT. Lee last night gave a lecture, in which he told many new things concerning hypnOtism, his talks always being Of a very interesting character.
 Mir. Lee also instructs parties wishing to learn how to exercise this power, which he says is possessed by all, if they only know how to use 1t, and yesterday he formed a class of ten for the purpose of imparting the knowledge to them.
 Mir. Lee in conversation with Jour nal Miner representative, i'll joking way, remarked that the present rain storm was due'to his visit here. He says that for some time it has nearly always rained at places which he has visited. Phenix was the only excep- ton to this rule. He says that so noticeable was this during an eastern tour recently that he was given the title of rain maker, and many people there really believed that he posse d the power of causing the heavens so weep. During his recent trip throuSn California the same thing occurred some time during the week al every town he visited. While he doe not lay any claim to the pOssossl 'f any secret rain making power, u I- incidence Is quite remarkable.

SHOOTING STEVE.
Steve Mott Hits a Human Target With a Charge from a
 Shotgun.

News comes from Mohave county of an encounter at Steve Mott's ranch between Steve Mott and Oliver John son, in which Johnson was severely if not dangerously wounded. Johnson was employed by Mott to handle cat tie, and the two had misunderstood ing about money matters. Johnson challenged Mott to fistcuff, but this character of combat did not suit Mott and the result was gun flight, in which Mott used a shotgun. Johnson rode twenty-eight miles to William Magee's rauch and from there was conveyed to Kingman in buggy in time to save his life. Johnson was shot in the face and body. This is the report from Johnson's side of the case; Mott is to be heard from yet.

DIS AAWSS
When Col. James Williams strobe
up Forsyth street yesterday with buIg-
ing pockets scraping the store fronts
everyone thought he was Juggling an
arsenal or carrying home couple of
hams, It developed, however, that
Col. Williams had just sold at top
price the first installment of his cot
ton crop, and had enough crisp bills
to chink the cracks of an old ginhouse.
Though leading lawyer, Colonel
Williams devotes much time to agri-
cultural pursuits, his oat crop this
year breaking the record in Sumter.
He also planted some cotton as o side
line, and though it is not breaking
down by weight of the bolls, or is it
even head high like Colonel Tom
Lanes crop, Colonel Williams will
realize enough cash therefrom to en-
able him to do little private banking
in the way of recreation from his du-
ties at the temple of justice.
