AIontezuma's Well.

One of the most pleasing natural
cUriOsities in the territory of Arizona
is the pool of water known as Monte
zuma's we'll It is situated 10 miles
northeast of the old abandoned mill
tary post known as Camp Verde. It is
$50 feet in diameter, and the clear.
pure water is about 60 feet below the
surface of the surrounding country.
Some years ago certain military Off
GERS sounded the pool and found that
it had a uniform depth of so feet of
water, except in one place, apparently
about six feet square, where the sound
ing line went down about 500 feet
without touching bottom.
The we'll empties into Beaver creek
only about 100 yards distant, the water
gushing forth from the rocks as though
1t were under great pressure. The well
is undoubtedly supplied from subter-
ranean sources, possibly through the
hole sounded by the army officers
years ago. The sides of the we'll are
honeycombed with caves and tunnels,
permitting sightseers to descend to
the waters edge.
Montezuma's we'll contains no fish
The flow of water from it is the same
through the seasons. Popular opinion
has attributed the origin of the welt to
volcanic action, but as the rock sur
rounding it is limestone it is more
than probable that the action Of the
water is responsible for its creation.

ARE EASILY UPSET.
Some People Lose Their Nerve and
Sense when Confronted
by Danger.

81 remember once hearing Of a fel-
low who, coming uninjured out CT a
railway wreck, worked like a demon
to assist his less fortunate fellOw-Pas-
sengers," said a railway official TO a
Cincinnati Enquirer reporter. "All the
time he was at work, however, he held
one hand to his collar, and, when it was
over, one Of his companions discovered
that he was holding tight to his neck
tie, which he had been in the act %
tying when the collision occurred.
People act very queerly when they
are, or think they are, IN danger.

A HISTORIC TOWER.
Is Being Put in Good
Repair.

The famous tower on the summit Of
Leith hill is undergoing a much-needed
renovation. The tower has occupied
its present position for 134 years. It
was erected in 1T76 by Richard Hull,
Of Leith Hill place, who selected the
exposed position as his burying-place,
and his remains were, on his death in
1772, inferred beneath the tower. Sub
sequently a portion of the interior was
filled with stone and cement, and the
entrance blocked. In 1864, however, the
lord of the manor determined to re-
store 1t to its original purpose of a
prospect tower. The solid cement, how
ever, cannot be pierced and in order to
overcome the difficulty an outer tuFs
ret for the staircase had to be built.
Since that time many thousands of
holiday=makers have assembled it for
the more extensive view gained from
its parapet. The building and the re-
construction are each commemorated
by stones bearing inscriptions In Latin
inserted in the brickwork over the
door.
The height Of Leith hill is 965 feet,
and the tower renders the view one
from a height Of 1000 feet-the high
est point in the southeastern counties.
This renders possible a more extend
ed view than from almost any point
near London, reaching from the long
line of the South Downs to Dunstable
Downs, in Bedfordshire- prospect

HER ANSWER.

They were old friends. bit they hadn't met
In many many years;
And the tide of life had hurried on,
With its joys and hopes and fears;-
But both the women had met at last
Old playmates once again,
They talked Of girIhOOd's dreams, now past
Its buOyant hopes, now slain.
'Ah, Kate, % said Madge. you're not the same,
You've lost your charm Of face
You've lost your pretty, rosy G. eeks,-
You've lost your form of grace,
Your chestnut hair has turned to gray.
Your lips have lost their red:
All things changed,-and soon our day
Will turn to night instead"
dear one Kate said, i've nothing lost,
For here's my hair of brown
On Prue's dear heads-my eldest bOrn;-
And Bess has not frOwn
On her sweet face, that's just like mine
Of thirty years agone,-
While Kittie's blue eyes dance and shine
Like sunlight in the morn
Mine shone in just the self-same way
When you, dear, saw me last.
And Margaret's lips are just as red
As mine in days long past.
No, no, my dear, I've nothing lost,
My life is on the wane;-

President Mckinley spent last Sun
day in resting at Ell Paso, Tex, aud at
tended church. In Difference to the
presidents wishes there was no parade
and the day was passed in a quiet man
ner. Being at the border of Mexico,
President Mckinley exchanged friend
~ greetings by wire with Porfirio Diaz,
president of the Mexican republic. In
Mexico the national holiday of "Cinco
de Mayo" Fifth of May was being
celebrated in conmemoration of the
decisive victory over Maximillian's
forces preceding the downfall of the
empire. The day is observed in very
similar manner to our Fourth of July.

Colonel Bryan has been asked to ex-
plain the failure of prices to fall and
the following is his answer in part as
set forth in his paper:
'sThe readers Of the COmmOner are
well enough acquainted with the mon
ey question to know that the 'quanti-
tive theory is the basis of the science
Of money. Other things being equal,
the value of a dollar depends upon the
number Of dOllars-an increase in the
volume of money increasing prices,
and a decrease in the volume Of money
decreasing prices. This is the found
alton Of all argument made In behalf
of bimetallism.
"For twenty years the price level
fell, and during that time the prOduc-
ers Of wealth and the debtors thought
the world suffered an almost incalcu-
liable loss, while the owners Of money
and fixed investments enjoyed an en-
ormous advantage. Silver was struck
down by those who desired a dearer
dollar, and bimetaIIists were called ad-
vocates of silver, because they favored
the restoration Of silver to its former
place in the currency. If the advOca-
tes of dear money had attacked gold
instead of silver, the same people who
favored the restoration Of silver would
have favored the restoration Of gold.
son one side of the question stood
those who wanted, as Mr.. Mckinley
once expressed it, to make money the
master, and all things else the servant;
on the other side stood those who
wanted a sufficient volume of money
to maintain the level of prices, aud the
freq and unlimited coinage of silver,
as well as gold, at the present legal
ratio, was urged as a means to that
end
''Since 1896 there has been an unex-
pected increase in the production of
gold, and this increase, which the re-
publicans neither expected, promised
nor desired, has brought, in part, tn
advantages which the restoration Of
bimetallism would have brought more
completely.
In so far as business conditions have
been improved by the increased pro-
duction of gold, bimetaIlists have been
indicated. If anyone will take the
trouble to read the literature circula-
ted by the gold standard advocates in
1895, he will find the 'quantitive the
ory' of money was denounced, and a
rising dollar eulogized. Nobody Gu
Iogizes a dear dollar now, but the ad
vocates of the gold standard are seek
ing to secure credit because OF the
increased volume of money, which
they did not contemplate and dad not
want.
Business conditions have not been
normal during the last three years.
War in the Philippines and in South
Africa has operated TO raise the price
level-fiIst, by withdrawing a large
number of men from the labor market:
and second, by increasing the demand
for provision, army supplies and equip
ment for soldiers. Nations have been
mortgaging the future to secure money
to spend IN the present"

TITANIC CONFLTCT.

Mythology has its story of the war
of the Titans. Milton in Paradise Lost
describes the battle of the angels with
the devils. Scripture furnishes US
the 81 Dry of David and Goliath and the
exploits of Samson. These conflicts. of
the giants of fable, fiction and bible
narrative amuse, interest, or excite rs
according to our moods We feel no
personal interest, no alarm for our own
safety. But the conflict of financial
giants for the control of natural and
national utIlities,as In the new oil fields
and consolidation of all the railroad
and steamship lines, creates an entire
~ different impression on the MUD of
the thoughtful and patriotic citizen.
Think of of this proposition. One rail
way system for the United States and
one magnate in New York City fixing
the traffic and tariff arrangements for
the whole country. Great Jupiter, be
kind to US! Wouldn't you prefer gov
ernmeht ownership, when we could
command instead of petition?

The Center of Population.


The census bureau has officially fix
ed the center Of population at a point
in southern Indiana, six miles east of
Columbus. Since 1890 the center of
population has moved westward lit
tie over Il miles and southwark little
less than three miles. This is the
smallest movement of the center of
population ever noticed since the be
ginning Of the government. It seems
to indicate quite clearly that the day
Of abnormal increase in population
throughout the western states has
passed by.
The census figures show a large in
crease in the population of the north
Atlantic states and this has kept the
center Of population much farther
east than had been expected. In the
decade ending with 1890, there was a
westward movement Of 4S miles. Thus
it viii be seen that in the last ten
years the star Of empire has taken its
way westward, so far as population is
concerned, only one-third as rapidly
as formerly. The slight southerly
movement Of the center Of population
is due to the great movement Of peo-
pie into Indian territory, Oklahoma
and Texas Gazette Herald.
