1t is a mistake to suppose that kissing

AS matter of fact it is a fine art that
needs to be studied with all the assiduity
that lawyer devotes to his Blackstone.
The time has passed when the tyro can
find in the osculatory embrace the means
of expressing all the pent-up feelings that
mere feeble words so i'll avail to convey.
On the contrary, the swain of the future
must be a specialist of the subject Of
kissing. He must have mastered every
detail of the science of lovemaking, and
as proof of his proficiency he must be able
to exhibit a diploma from a College Of
Courtship.
AS yet there is only one Of these colleges
in existence. It has just been established
at Atwood. Tennessee. The degree it will
Issue, will be expressed by D. L., which
means Doctor of Love. The founder and

The aim Of the founder is to help all
those whose amatory education has been
neglected. He has surrounded himself
with corps Of competent instructors and
is all ready for the spring rush.
Students In the College Of Courtship
will be taken through several degrees be-

college course is to consist Of four terms.
There will be an elective course for the
degree of Bachelor OF Hearts. to con-

ARIZONA PLACERS.
They Are Extensive, But They Lack
 Water.

Placer gold deposits are wide spread
 over the territory, as must necessarily
 be the case in region so widely filled
 with gold quartz veins which has under gone such an enormous amount of ero-
 sion, says the Pacific Coast Miner. There is not, however, the degree of concentration in stream channels. large and small, that has resulted in aurifer- GUS regions having had so much great CT water supply during many ages. The placer deposits of Arizona cannot be worked with the economy and facili- ty obtaining in Northern and Central California and elsewhere, where abund- ant water is at hand fer washing the gravel On large scale. A slight frac- ticn of the placer ground worked has been worked by sluicing, and then it has generally been accomplished by mining the gravel and working it all during short rainy season. This has been done at places where a brief water supply was available.
 Dry washingwas necessarily the meth cd most pursued and dry washing ma chimes are quite numerous. These are practically mbinatiOns of flaming mill and short sluice box, mechanic ally shaken. The auriferous gravel is shOveled into hopper, from which it passes dry through the machine over grates, which catch the coarser pebbles over vibrating inclined boxes, fitted with rifles which retain the heavier gold, and through an air blast which blows away the lighter dirt, the pro- cess resulting in fair concentration of the gold particles. Various dry washing machines have been put on the market in recent years. With the com paratively small amount of material that can be handled in machine, and with the necessary lack of efficiency afforded by the sluice box, ground much richer than that worked by the usual placer miner, and there is no comparison with the results of the large-scale hydraulic process. The principal need of these desert placers is an efficient, large-scale application of the drywashing process. and pro- gress in this direction will undoubtedly soon be made.
 In spite of these conditions, Arizona placer deposits have yielded some mill ions in gold since the beginning of the industry. The Americans have worked only the richer ground Low-grade i deposits have always been worked more or less by Mexicans, who often work the gravel by winnowipg it in blanket like wheat. These deposits are gener- ally marked by mining only the richest bottom gravel, generally by drifting.

Walter O'Brien Dead.

A telegram to Donald Mcintyre an nOunces that Walter O'Brien died on the night of July 3l at the $. P. hospi- tai in TucsCn. He came to the Pacific coast in 1S49, and was the associate and benefactor of John w. Mackay, the bonanza king, in the days of the latter's diversity. The old man never forgave Mackay for ignoring him when their conditions had been reversed; but he had the grewscme satisfaction of know ing that Mackay had to go first and leave his gold behind. For several years O'Brien has been an employe of the s. P. company at Yuma. He was 83 years old.
 Walter O'Brien is still alive. It was some other O'Brien that died. The second telegram has just been received from TucsCn, dated the 14th, as fol- lows:
 ID. Mcintyre: Glad to advise that Walter O'Brien is still alive, and al- though not strong, is doing as well as can be expected. C. K. C."

Died Suddenly.

James King, who came here from Los Angeles about two years ago, died suddenly last Sunday from a combina- tion of causes. He was taken i'll in the Ruby saloon. Dr. COtter was sent for and upon examination, found the sick mans temperature los. The doctor had him conveyed to HaineS' barber shop, where preparations had been made to give him an ice bath to reduce his high temperature, but the man ex- pired before being placed in the bath tub. Upon the advice from friends of deceased in Los Angeles, the body was embalmed and shipped to Los Angeles Monday morning for interment.

A Submerged Electric r1otor.

Is new device by which any small
 rowbcat can be easily transformed into a power-propelling craft without mak-
 ing the slightest alteration in it. If people who are suffering from ailments of the stomach, liver and bowels would try Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, their condition would gradually improve un- til they are completely transformed from the weak, nervous condition to one of robust health. It is a medicine that the most delicate stomach can re- tain and one that will not shock the system. During the past fifty years hundreds of people have voluntarily testified to its efficacy in cases of head ache, indigestion, dyspepsia, constipa- tion, nervousness, liver and kidney troubles, malaria, fever and ague. We would therefore urge you to try bot tie and satisfy yourself.

A Vermont man named Clarence A
 Adams has just been brought to hal
 in an amazing career. Most of his life
 he has been a respected citizen of Ches

 has been a thief. He was elected tC the legislature, and while at AIOntpe
 lier, the capital, engaged in midnight burglaries, but was never detected ol even suspiciOned, notwithstanding he was a member of the legislature. Ad. ans double life has just been exposed through his being desperately wounded by spring gun set at a mill which he was burglarizing. He is now in the tolls and has confessed. He says he was in huenced to take up his astonishing ca reer by reading Stevenson's ''Dr. Jekyl and Mir. Hyde"
 J. B. Lippincott, Photographer of the United States geological survey, has devised scheme to make river do it's own pumping of water for the purposes of irrigation. The scheme will be ap- piled in the King river valley, Cal. It consists in the establishing of power plant of ISOO-hOrse-power, to generate 2,2O0 volts of electricity, transmit it at high tension 45 miles to the lower val ley, harness it to numerous pumping stations located in different parts of the delta, and so make the river pump up it's own water which has been used in irrigation, rendering it second time available for the reclamation of new lands.

Socialists Resolutions of Sympathy

At meeting of the Yuma branch oi the National Socialist party the follow. ing resolutions of sympathy for the striking miners were adopted:
 Resolved that we, the members of the Socialist party of Yuma hereby ex- press our sincere sympathy for the striking miners of West Virginia in their present struggle for a measure of justice: and
 Resolved, That we earnestly deplore and protest against the peridious in justice which is being perpetrated against them by the action of Judges Jackson and Golf, in the incafcefating of American citizens for free and hon. est expression of opinion relative to the struggle between capital and labor in West Virginia; and
 Resolved, Thai. we most earnestly and sincerely deplore the perpetuation for single hour of the present prevail ing pertdiouS system of private owner SiAA OI OLC pNODlC LII DIO- ductiOn, and the resources of nature; that causes and compels multitudes of honest-hearted human beings to hum- ply supplicatc at the feet of beastly, brutal, bandit bands of selfish, sinister, sordid supercilious, snubbish scoun- drels, for the privilege to labor and produce the things necessary to sustain the lives of themselves and their little loved ones; and further,
 Resolved, That these resolutions be spread on the records of our organiza- tion and copies sent to the Yuma Sun. and the Arizona Sentinel, with the re- quest that they be published, and also a copy with such funds as we can afford to contribute to be sent to President John Mitchell of the Miners Union.
