Will Help With the Selection.
The local chapter Of the Daughters
of the American Revolution has offered
to aid the Commercial club in securing

asked to furnish a coat Of arms to be

cruiser Topeka The last time the m at

at the last meeting of the Commercial
club IN communication to John E.
Lord from a relative of his at Wash

Vestigate the matter and learn If a coat
Of arms could be secured.
The members of the d. A R chose
Mrs. A. II. Thompson to represent the
local chapter in the matter and sug-
gested that cash prize be offered for
the best design for a coat of arms, and
restrict the competitors to the city of
Topeka
The plan has met with favor and it
IS possible that within a short time To-

 Predicted.

The mining interests of Arizona are in the most prosperous condition that they have ever been. Every camp Is on the boom New money is coming m by the millions. The wonderful success of all mining districts has had much tl do with this new development and it is now comparatively easy matter 10 raise money for legitimate mining in this territory. One of the most inn portant moves that has been made in the mining circles of Arizona, says the Prospector, is the preliminary steps looking to the reopening of the mines at Tombstone As is well known, some Uc the greatest mines in the country were developed here. Millions upon millions of dollars were taken out of these mines. II was one of the greatest silver producing camps in the world, it's ores carrying large values in gold, also. Large plants of machinery were installed on the various mine" and they are there today. silent monuments of a great hope and d une-time prosperity.

BRIEF CHAPTERS.
BY FLORA BULLOCK.
For The Courier

The robins have nestled in nook Of
the old willow tree in the back yard.
1t was some time ago that the old folks
came and sighted around for location,
and since then there have been great
doings. Now there are hungry squawks
from very long bills that cape over the
edge of the nest. and Mrs. Robin can
stretch her cramped legs. Things
might not have prospered so well, how
ever, had it not been for the watchful-
ness Of Mr.. Robin. Once while he was
away the tired mother-no one has in
vented robin incubators yet-got up to
take the air and look around. She
seemed to enjoy the respite, but it
proved a brief one. Up flew her lord
and master, gave her sharp whack
and pushed her back on the nest, as
much as to say, There, l won't have
you gadding off from home, going to
women's clubs and political meetings.
Attend to your business, which at this
present moment is kinder"
"Chirp," said Mrs. Robin, meekly.
If you see member of the A. D. q.
W. who attended the convention at Ne
braska City last week you should treat
him with respect. For it is certain that
if he improved his advantages he is
ahead of you in education. He knows
what the State Institute for the Blind
is. 1t is safe to assert that the visitors
received more enlightenment in two
days than is accorded most people. An
entertainment was given by the pupils
OF the schools at the Overland theatre.

en-: Morey that evening set the auditors
on the right track. When they saw and

How love Of you has turned

How thought Of you has made

The loneliest, hardest way:
If you should never know
how just your smile

How just your word has

TUNED ugliness to beauty:
If my poor, unframed lips
can never say
How your name always breatnes

And how your love has made

In music tones which

With touch and smile which

Mrs. James r. Hopley. president of
the Ohio Federation Of Women's Clubs.
writes in the Chicago Tribune of the
mission OF women's clubs. Said Mrs.
Hopley:
THE mission Of clubs is TO inform,
strengthen and test character. Each Of
US, unthinkipg and unframed, acquire
falsities OF mental attitudes. These we
correct effectively and quickly by asso-
citation. Because club life is capable of
Informing, strengthening and testing
character, it gives the true value to con-
duct and results. The reason women
have failed in the business field. il they
have. as Mr. Box in the Ladies' Home
Journal, tells US, is because the change
was too great; there have been no famil-
iar landmarks CT guide-posts. Clubs
train women morally as we'll as mentally.
Working girls clubs have here a splen-
did mission. Club life helps to form
judgment. makes of women masters, but
gentle ones. of all the situations in life.
The club movement was inspired. or
gained, and has been carried on by
mothers. | am more and more con-
WINGED that the tendency to publicity is
not conducting to the real happiness Of
women. Home is the natural ambition.
the Unborn pride. the happiest sphere
towards which woman ever turns, and
the club movement is a guardian Of
home. Ali We attempt hare in Ohio has
reference to the better building Of the
home. What are its safeguards? Edu-
cation. religion. good food, healthfuI

unsatisfactory title of Institute" One
interested spectator said to me: swell,

that when that young lady came out

staggered me-"
So the much badged gentlemen
climbed the north hill 20 the institute

They came in droves and groups, went
around the buildings, seeing the pupils
at their classes in English. history, geog-
raphy, music, hammock making. weav-

the inmates who guided them to the
high tower from which they could look
down on the green old town ard away
into three states. Everything was Won
derful to them. The inmates" felt like
a meragerie. but were happy to think
that here were more citizens Of the great
state Of Nebraska who would not talk
about the "blind asylum" henceforward,
nor address letters to such a place,
which, fortunately, the state has not
provided. Our brooms sweep clean, our
rag-carpets make you think of your

Governor Savage and his wife, with
Attorney General Prout, came to the

tertainment given for them by the
pupils the Governor made brief speech
that made one wonder where he had
learned the art Of saying just the fitting
thing. He is one Of these people who
say, 81 really am not much of a talker,"
and when they stop have only aroused
a desire for more. The Attorney Gen.
eral also must have gone to school in a
college where they instruct youths am
bilious to hold state positions in the art
of making speeches to blind pupils. 1t
is an art. The man who can do il is an
exception. l have seen a whole con-
ference OF Methodist ministers make
the attempt with the result that a gen.
eral depression settled down on every
body for week. A revivalist tweakei
shattered nerves as he would play on
guitar strings. A blind speaker trying
to encourage. aroused heart-break and
rage. So it was very satisfying that the
man from the sand-hilis knew what
chord to strike. l am sure the children
smiled themselves to sleep over the
pleasantries of the evening, and as they
carry their experiences in their minds
they are not likely soon TO forget the
new governor" Years hence some of
them may say, "You remember what
Governor Savage said that night" and
quote it verbatim. When you speak TO
such memories it is always well to say
nothing that it will hurt to rem ember.
