 9 That a senator of the United States is not a representative" of his state in the senate, but is, in fact, "a senator of the Unied States" The all lotment of two senators to eacn state was to preserve an equilibrium between the wealthy and populous communi- ties, and those which were poor and sparsely settled.
 8. That representation according to tional house of representatives, IT, which house all legislation affecting taxation must originate. Thus we. find, today, that if Arizona were a state sae would have one lonesome representa- tive in the lower house as against the thirty-four representatives from the state of New York.
 If it should prove financial burden to the people of Arizona to support q state government, that fact would in no sense affect the taxpayer of Los An- geles or of Indianapolis. The whole question is, simply. whether the people of Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma shall be permitted to take the same course which has been followed by every other new state-whether, having shown that they have the requisite wealth and population and stability of resources, they are to have the righ; of f-government.

SNAKE VENOM sg. 400 A POUND.

Here is a new thing in the drug trade that brings $2,4OO a pound and ought to be profitable at that price; but the supply is rather limited and the securing of the drug itself an extra hazardous occupation. It is a rattle snake venom.
 Cyanide of mercury. prussic acid strychnine and arsenic are strong poisons. yet up in Rochester a poison that is far more powerful is being man ufactured. This is the powder made from the venom of rattlesnakes by Rattlesnake Pete at his Mill street muesum. So wonderful in it's work ings is this deadly powder that scien- lists in all parts of the civilized world are engaged in studying it's properties.
 Some weeks ago Pete received a com munication from Germany directed to "Rattlcsnake Pete, Rochester, Amer ica," asking in what quantities the venom from rattlesnakes could be fur nished by the Rochester snake man and what he charged for it.
 When interviewed about it Pete said: "I have just received another letter from Germany. It is from Dr. Edwin L. Faust, Pharmacological LaDora- tory, University of Strasburg, and he wants $50 worth of rattlesnake venom in its powdered form to experiment with. He thinks my price of $25 per drachm is too high, but when it comes to procuring the stuff, in the manner 1t has to be taken from the snake. with slip meaning q bite that would result in either death or weeks in the hospital l can tell you I will not furnish a drachm for one cent less. I have to pick each snake up with my hand and force a spoon into it's mouth in order to procure the venom and although | have handled rattlers all my life i

The postal authorities have a well grounded suspicion that millions or cancelled postage stamps are sent to China each year. where by some pro cess they are rejuvenated and sent back to the United States Wa San Francisco and sold. An old man wa: arrested in Newark the other day In whose room was found tub of water in which were soaking about 5O,OOO postage stamps. He frankly told the officers that he collected them and sent them to China where they brought T good sum. He did not know he was doing anything wrong. The authori- ties are watching for some evidence with which they can prove a case m line with their suspicion. The Chinese buy them on the pretense that they are esteemed as wall decorations in China and bought for that purpose.

"M. A. P" tells a story with regard to the late czar of Russia. He was one night playing a game Of whist at Hom- burg, and the present king, then, or course, prince of Wales, and several nf his friends were of the party. Among those friends was Sir James Mackin- tosh. well known bon vivant of the eighties and nineties. Sir James was one of those blunt, downright. rougn spoken Scotchmen who didn't know fear of God or man. In the midst or the game Sir James called out to the czar, You've revoked" Everybody's blood ran cold. The prince of Wales. have been told, kicked the Scotchman under the table; and the czar. blush ing and confused, exclaimed in bewild- erment, Revoked, Why. I never did such a thing in my life!" But Sir James persisted. and the monarch was proved to be wrong; whereupon Sir James replied to tho observation of tho czar, "I daresay you've often revoked. your majesty. but this is the first time you were ever told SO.

NogaIes Commercially Prompt.

It is gratifying to note that the off cials of Santa Cruz county were prompt to act on the suggestion that precautions be taken against the intro duction of the bubonic plague from Mexico. Physicians were sent from Nogales to Guaymas, and a complete investigation of the situation there was made. It was ascertained that a quarantine is being maintained against Mazatlan. the infected port, and this of course. greatly minimizes the dan ger that the plague may enter the United States by way of Guaymas. Most important of all, the people of NoSales and Santa Cruz county have shown themselves alert in protecting the interests of Arizona, and so long as this spirit is manifested there need be no apprehension as to danger from the plague. It will not be permitted to gain a foothold in Nogales, or else where on Arizona soil
 If the reports from Mazatlan are to be relied upon. the Mexican authorities are meeting with success in confining the disease to the area first affected. The deaths have been numerous, but there have been few new cases within the past few days.

The man who does the figuring for the Scientific American became busy recently with the following result: There are nearly 100000 miles of rail- road track in the United States. The tOal weight of the rails required for this mileage is 25.OOO,OOO tons. If this mass of metal could be cast in one rec tangular block. it would be 436 feet Gr- the base. and $50 feet in height If ali the ties could be gathered in a man. moth pile it would be "A times as great as the pyramid of the Pharaohs.

JEFFERSON IN RIP VAN TWINKLE

Thomas Jefferson in his delightful portrayal of Rip Van Winkle' will be at the Doris theater tomorrow night The Louisville Courier-Journal refer ring to MT. Thomas Jefferson's appear ance there said: "Mr. Jefferson ap- peared here year ago and was greeted by large audiences, owing greatly to the fact that many were anxious to see how the son of our be- loved Joseph Jefferson would conduct himself in the role created and played for so many years by his famous father He proved one of the most delightful surprises of the season. It did not taka him long after the curtain went up to convince his hearers that his talent was we'll worthy the great name he bears Jefferson, a name which for five gener- ations has stood for all that is best in dramatic art. He comes to us this time, and will be received, theatricalIy speaking. with open arms: not simply because he is the son of a great father. but because he has made himself a genuine favorite with theatergoers or Louisville. and we will see him this time for himself alone Thomas imi- tates his father simply because he can not help it. He is a chip of the olI block, and resembles the elder so close ly both in looks and action. that ono can hardly tell them apart either on or off the stage.''
 Thomas Jefferson gives a masterfu: performance of the delightful old vagabond, Rip Van Wrinkle" and when we tell our readers that it is one of the gems of the American stage we are not speaking at random.
 The story of the play is familiar to almost every theatergoer and they have grown to love the happy-go- lucky Rip" just as the children in the grand old fable did. The play has taken its place among the classics or the American stage and as presented by the Jeffersons will live and be pop- ular for years to come.

the Jeffersons, who love art for arts sake and produce good wholesome plays like Rip Van Wrinkle" plays that entertain without resorting to vulgarity and immodest insinuatIons, there would be little reason for the clergy to decry the immortality of the stage and the chasm between the pulpit and the footlights would be but a step across. So here's to the Jeffersons and their good play. Rip Van Wrinkle, '' may they all live long and prosper"

THE BRITISH CABINET
Changes Already Made and Some TO
Follow.

LONDON, July IA. ]. Balfour waS
today formally greeted as Great Brit
aims Premier and the new regime be-
gan it's work. The momentous change
was marked by only one dramatic Incl
dent, the resignation of Sir Michael
Hicks Beach from his post of Chan
cellor of the Exchequer. Yet this lack
of outward show and public prelude to
new chapter in English history is by
no means representative OF the dis
turbance which the sudden transition
created among the undercurrents of po-
liticaI life. It is safe to say that Sir
Michael Hicks Beach is only the first
OF several whose names have figured
largely before the public in the last
half century who now viii disappear
from the political arena. Nothing alb
solutely definite is yet settled. but the
Unionist party expect shortly to hear
OF the designations of Earl Halsbury.
Lord High Chancellor. Lord James OF
Hereford Chancellor of the Duchy OF
Lancaster, and Earl Cadogan, Lord
Lieutenant of Ireland.
For Sir Michael Hicks Beach's place.
Robert william Hamburg, now Presi
dent of the Board of Agriculture, is the
favorite. In the pending reconstruction,
which may not be completed for some
time TO come. Balfour. much to the de-
Light OF the Unionists, will remain the
leader of the House OF Commons and
First Lord of the Treasury, with Cham
berlain, still in command of the Colonial
Office, as his first lieutenant.
If Earl Halsbury, on account OF his
great age. fuIflls predictions by retir-
ing, Baron Alyerstone viii succeed to
the woolsack, Sir Richard Hem Col
Inns becoming Lord Chief Justice. Sir
r. 3. Finlay succeeding him as Master
of the Rolls, Sir =. H. Carson, noW
Solicitor General. becoming Attorney
General, and probably Charles Alfred
Grips. Attorney General to the Prince
Of Wales. succeeding TO the Solicitor
Generalship.
