Played Before the Empress.

The German Emperor, not long ago commanded that a special musical
 and dramatic entertainment be giv, en at the Royol Opera House in Der lin with the most eminent talent in Germany participating. A vast and
 brilliant audience assembled. The
 Emperor, owining to illness, was ab sent, but the Empress, the Royal family and court were there, together with the most notable personages of the capital. On the programme, placed between two of Germany's most renowned singers stood the name of a new star, the violinist who but three weeks before had made so successful a debut as to set Berlin talking. "A prize pupil of Dr. Joa- chim, the director of the Royal School of Music" |" it was whispered in the audience, land reports of her talent have reached the court"
 The artist proved to be a young girl in her teens who came forward clad in white; modest, timorous yet of rare sweetness and charm of manner. The hush of expectancy settled over the great opera house. The little maiden in white grasped her violin, and soon the strains of beautiful mu- sic poured forth touching the hearts of the immense throng with the mag ic power of genius. The solo ended, there followed such a scene of enthu- siasm, such storm of applause as all present will long remember. The young violinist with one step became famous. Americans present that eve hing will never forget the triumph, or the little maiden in white was an American whose subsequent triumphs n many lands have made her re- Her name is Leonora Jack on.

4 Boom for Kingman.

Kingman property is on the boom This week Messrs. Mulligan & Hubbs of the Hotel Beale were requested to set price on that property by syn dicate eff capitalists and offers were also made for other desirable prop erty. The proprietors of the Beale have no desire to sell, but will let go if the purchaser reaches their figures. In the next sixty days it is rumored that work on a new business block will be commenced and that eastern people will be at the head of some of Kingman's enterprises An electric light plant will be installed some time this year and the town will take on metropolitan airs. The water supply of the town and its central To- cation makes it a desirable residence place for mine superintendents and mine owners of the county, adding much to property values.- Mohave Miner.

New Engine Valve.

Sensational claims have been made in the press in the past few days in respect to an invention of new valve mechanism of locomotives, which has been tried on the Great Northern railway. It is asserted that it will re- duce coal consumption 40 per cent, and that the locomotive thus filled at 40 pounds of steam will do more work than an ordinary one with 210 pounds. It may be said in this con nection that another invention which is really epoch making, was recently perfected, and will soon be an nounceed. It has been tested by the highest authorities, who affirm it will revolutionize the motive power of the world. It cannot yet be described, but it comes from Germany.

TIE NEW WELLINGTON.
A Handsome and Up to Dsts Resort to
 Open Its Doors This Evening.

About six or seven weeks ago J. B Mccoy arrived in Prescott in search of location for a large and up to date sporting establishment. He had travelled through Washington, Ore gon, Texas and New Mexico looking after place that suited his fancy for such location, but had not found it until he arrived in Prescott, when he at once made up his mind that this was the place he was looking for. The next thing was a building that was suitable, and this question was finally settled by taking ten-years' lease on the two-story brick owned by Mrs. Jennie Jackson on Montezuma street. The building was not large enough and force of carpenters, masons, paperhangers, painters, etc, was put to work extending the build ing fifty feet in length and entirely remod cling the interior. This small army of workmen have been at it like beavers ever since, and tonight the place will be thrown open for business under the name of the Wellington.
 The interior has been fixed uy very handsomely and conveniently. A handsome mahogany bar, large enough for six men to work behind, with beautiful back bar gorgeously carved and decorated with electrical fixtures and three costly French plate mirrors, adorns the main bar room. There is in addition a large:cigar case well filled with the best brand of cigars on the market. Back of the cigar case is a circular wall case filled with bottled liquor of the best foreign and domestic brands.
 The private office is in the front of the building while public office has been provided for the use of any one desiring to write letter or enjoy a quiet hour reading the leading papers and magazines of the day.
 The main room is ninety by twenty five feet in front of the elevated stage, which is ten by seventeen feet, where excellent musicians will be employed to furnish sweet music at all times. All the regular games will be provid- ed and conducted, MT. Mccoy says, absolutely on the square.
 Back of the stage are four private rooms which have been fitted up in splendid style.
 Under the stage is a large wine cellar where thousands of dollars worth of liquors are stored.
 The entire furnishings and finish ing of the interior are in harmony the woodwork being in cherry while the wall paper is of a rich red figure, making pleasant and cheerful ef- fest.
 The Messrs Mccoy are both thor oughly acquainted with every detail of their business, have unlimited cap- ital at their command and propose to conduct their place in first class manner in every respect and have put in line of wines, liquors and cigars that have never been excelled in Arizona. They are very pleasant gentlemen and will no doubt make complete success of the new enter prise.

In Chicago it has been decided to cut the salaries of the school teachers g per cent. It would be better if the pe-quisites of political hangers-on could be cut about 99 per cent. It is a bad sign when a city economies in exactly the wrong place.
 It should be remembered by those who denounce our policy in the Phil ippines as government without the consent of the governed" that those who are governed should be able to give an intelligent consent. We do not ask the consent of children even in this country. As the Filipinos grow up they will be accorded larger privileges.
 The democrats who are forcing and evadiDg the issue by making plea for Cuban annexation, forget that there are other obligations that must be fulfilled. The great necessity is to help the Cubans attain that for which they have been struggling for many years and to deal fairly with them in the matter of trade. When We have accomplished our first duty there will be plenty of time to con sider annexation.
 The dignity of the United States senate was pretty badly shaken up on Saturday by pugilistic encounter between South Carolina's two sena- tors. Tillman, he of the pitchfork fame, pitched" into his colleague, McLaurin by alleging that the latter voted for the Paris treaty as an ex- change for patronage in the distribu- tion of offices from his state. Me Laurin denounced the statement as a "willful, malicious and deliberate lie" !" Then the fun commenced. Tillman sprang across the seats and struck McLaurin in the face, when the lat ter countered by smash" on the nose, causing the blood to flow freely. The two men then clinched and pum- meled each other for a few minutes before they could be separated. In the good old times this would have meant a duel. Both senators were adjudged guilty of contempt by the senate in executive session and will probably be suspended for thirty days.

The Art of Taking.

Although modern and comprehen- sive dictionaries which father many offsprings of disreputable philology have refused their benediction to ''faking," and hold it still to be slang, in all its uses, the time is coming when the word will break into good society. The wonder is that prac- tice, craft, art or mystery, as you choose to call it, which is as ancient as the human race, should not have acquired verbal symbol acceptable to good usage.
 It is well enough to prate about the beauties of absolute truth and sheer ity, but there is no successful merit without little ''faking." And fax ing without merit will prosper, where merit without faking will starve. Bar nuns statement that the public loved to be humbugged is not flippancy, but a serious criticism of human nat ure.
 Lawyers find it necessary to in dulge in useless red tape in order to satisfy their clients. Doctors tell the same story. They must do a little faking to keep their practice. An i'm pressive office goes farther than great skill. The physician who is fool enough to tell a hypochondriac that his ailments are imaginary will ere ate a vicious and talkative foe and will be in fair way to lose some of his reputation. In self protection he must shake h.s head solemnly and prescribe bottle of colored water.
 Taking is necessary in all callings. Even in the newspaper business, the highest and holiest of callings, a linn tied indulgence is found profitable. The tradesman must be a fakir. He may give the customer honest value for his money and yet draw him to his place of business by the advertise ment of some extraordinary fake. Some banks do considerable faking in the way of over advertising their Many gentlemen of the pulpit have seen the virtue of fax ing and have pointed the way to Heaven by Delsarte gestures and pleasing mummery that attracted, though it may not have edifed.
 Taking, after all is a very ancient art. Moses, the great law giver prac- tised it as fine art. All the ancient prophets understood the valve of deli cate faking, and some of them were rather raw. Napoleon was great believer in it. So was Caesar. Gen eral Cortez was notorious believer i'll the art and it was mostly by fake methode that he conquered the ori- ginal inhabitants of this ancient city. | Even the Moctezumas before him | used it extensively in their priestcraft, | md according to history, to some purpose. The man who strives to go through the world without faking nay hope some day to be called My poor but honest parent" by some fakir whom he will be proud ta call his ;Ol-Ey

in the line of immoral suasion cannot be surpassed.
 It is reflection on mans reason that he often refuses to do what common sense dictates, until he Is forced to do 1t. Common sense tells c man that he cannot live irregu1arly and keep his health. He is warned and sdmonished time and again that nasty eating and irregular meals result in diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. But because Nature does not directly threaten his life ss the pistol does he goes right along until he is obliged to reform because disease forces him to do 90.
 UNHEEDED WARNINGS.
 It is only when all her warnings have been unheeded that Nature no longer says vYou should notD but rYou shail not" This is practically what happens when the lover of high living has to give up dainty dishes, sweets and condiments and come down to a diet of oatmeal or tea and toast.
 There are thousands of dyspeptics whose condition shuts them out from all the pleasures of the table. There are thousands of others who are on the high road to like condition, unheeding the warnings of the protesting stomach.
 The great fact is that every man and woman who suffers from dyspepsia can be almost certainly cured by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It always helps. It almost always cures.
