Judge Street possesses the Judicial temperament in q high de gree, and a natural fairness of mind not easily 6isturbad-a fact often de monstrated by his uniformly impartial attitude toward his few enemies among the. prao ticners. In view Of the vicious, but unsuccessful, assaults which have been made upon his character during the past few months by a few ar,5i- tious politicians. it is nc doubt 2 mai ter of great satisfaction to the jGdge to know that Ee is followed into pri- vate life by the best wishes Of t!.e peo- pie of Arizona, with whom confidence in his integrity as a judge and as q man has never wavere5, and it cannot be dispieasing to him to know that there is q general and deep a2precia- ton of his public services.

and the wolf vanished. He started
forward again and in moment an
other wolf stepped into the road.
While the musician was gazing ut
this newcomer, there was a pro-
longed howl behind. The musician
looked back, and although the tenn
perature was below zero thes perspi-
ration stood out on his Throw in
beads. In the road behind him were
two wolves and they walked slowly
toward the frightened man. A hap
Ply thought struck the musician. He
placed the horn to his lips and blew
few loud, discordant notes, and ran
toward the wolves. They leaped into
the woods as if they had been fired
upon by a rapid fire gun. The mu-
sician gathered courage from this,
and turned to try the horn on the
other wolf, but he. too, had taken
to the tall timber. Giving few more
wild blasts on the horn the musician
took to his heels and ran about a
quarter of a mile before he looked
back. When he did he saw four
wolves trotting behind at a re-
spectful distance. The musician was
nearly winded when he resorted to
the horn again. Turning about he
charged the wolves, meantime blow
ing the most unearthly blasts from
the horn. Again they vanished. and
again the musician took to his heels.
The wolves id not modest him fur

WERE NEVER CROWNED.
Seven of the Royal Women of Eng.
land Who Never Wore
Diadem.

England has had many royal wom-
en- queens in their own rights and
queens by virtue of marriage with
the reigning sovereign, but it is not
generally known that seven of the
women who are known in history as
queens were not so in fact, says a
London paper. They never received
the crown. The first was Margaret
of France, the young, plain, amiable
second wife of Edward I. He had
spent SO much money in conquering
Wales that he could not afford the
expense of coronation for his girl
splendors of the pageant.
King Henry VIII. took care that
Anne Boleyn should be crowned with
extreme magnificence. He desired to
show the world how much he loved
her and how very much he defied the
bishop of Rome. The four wives
who succeeded her were never
crowned at all. For one thing money
ran short, and for another there may
have lurked, even in his masterful
mind, sense of the Fitness of
things" which may have caused him
to shrink from publicly browning so
many ladies in very rapid succession.
At any rate, the beloved Jane Sey-
mour, the despised Anne of Cloves,
the girlish Catherine Howard and the
wary Catherine Parr were never con-
secrated in public as queen consorts
of England.
Henrietta Maria, wife of Charles l.,
refused to be crowned. She was
young, she was pretty, she was a
French princess and a bigoted Rom
an Catholic and she declined to take
part in state function which would
compel her to partake Of the sacra-
ment according to Church of England
rites.
Sophia Dorothea of Zell cannot be
reckoned among the seven, because
she was never called queen of Eng
land at all. While George /. was be-
ing crowned and anointed, and
bored, the Lady of Ahlden was pining
in her long, monotonous captivity.
Caroline Of Brunswick is the last,
and most remarkab BILE, instance of the
uncrowned English queens. Though
George ~. had been forced from pop
ular Indignation to. give up the bill
of pains and penalties against her,
nothing would induce him to let her
share in his coronation. She was not
permitted to be present at Westmin-
ster Abbey at all. Repulsed from all
the entrances, she returned to her
house to die within three weeks of q
violent fever, brought on by months
of fearful excitement. The strained
cord snapped. The brave heart was
broken at last.

Happy savases.

DR.. Carl Lumholtz, of the American
Museum of Natural History, who has

northwestern Mexico, sharing in the
every day life and amusements of the
people for several years, pronounces
them to be very intellectual race, al
though many of them still dwell in
caves like their forefathers thousands
of years ago. On the whole they lead
q very happy existence, and among
many of the tribes higher degree of
morality exists than in civilized coun-
tries. They are monogamists. Theft
and many of the worst forms of disease
are unknown among them. They hold
their land in common, and their prin-
cipal food is Indian corn and beams

vegetable matter for centuries has
filed the soil with fertile properties.
Artificial fertilizers are not required,
some plantations having been cu;ti-
waited for hundred years without
being unfavorably affected.
A home-seeker going to Costa RIGA
should consider carefully what crop
he wishes to raise and then take into
consideration the varieties of cli-
mate. A locality where great wealth
might be gained by raising coffee
would be unfavora BILE for cocoa or
rubber culture. The conditions are
most favorable to health in sections
where rubber may be raised success
fully. The returns from the latter
industry are not immediate. but in
time prove most satisfactory. AS
the wild rubber trees are being fast
exterminated, rubber plantations are
likely to increase rapidly. These
yield large revenue, the product
bringing about 1900 per ton and the
owners living very Independently.
A quick income is derived from
bananas, but in sections where they
grow the conditions are most UNI
favorable to health. The plants ma

are cut down and the fruit removed.

cocoa is obtained by grinding these
beans and refining and sweetening
the product. .....
No one who visited the worlds fair
at Chicago can fail to remember the
beautiful little Doric pavilion which
Costa Rica erected on the grounds
at an outlay of $4,000, and 100000
more was expended by the little re-
public to show how it's coffee grow
ing and curing are conducted. A
traveller desiring to visit Costa RIGA
would probably take passage at New
Orleans, disembarking at Limon, the
chief seaport, with a population OF
about 1000. The buildings of this

the streets macadamized. The stores
are well-stocked with goods from all

the fact that three times within
three years it has nearly been de-
