Some European Honors.

Those familiar with the high stand ards of European art centers will understand how elated the distinc tion for any youthful artist, especi ally one from misjudged "unmusical America" to be selected as a soloisi of such renowned old world sym phony Orchestras as the Leipsic Gewandhaus, the Colonne Symphony at the Chatelet Theatre, Paris, the London Philharmonic, the Kaim Symphony of Munich, the Museum Symphony of Frankfort on Main, the Philharmonic of Geneve, Switzerland the Royal Symphony of Antwerp and the like, societies by whom no Ameri- can violinist has ever before been en- gagged.
 These are but a few of Leonore Jackson's European honors. To mention all of her thriumphs on both sides of the Atlantic would make a long list indeed. Americans are justly proud of her, for she is an American, and holds place of honor among the worlds most noted artists. At Dake's Opera House Feb. p Seats will be placed on sale Wed.

The Last Heard of 1t.

My little boy took the Group one night and soon grew so bad you could hear him breathe all through the house" says F. D. Reynolds, Mans field, O. "We feared he would die, but few doses of One Minute Cough Cure quickly revived him and he went to sleep. That's the last we heard of the croup. Now isn't "a cough cure like that valuable?" One Minute Cough Cure is absolutely safe and acts immediately. For coughs, colds, croupe, grip, bronchitis and all other lung and throat troubles it is a certain cure. Very pleasant to take. The little ones like it. Fen s. Hildreth, w. w. Ross aud Brisley Drug Co.

 A large number of cuttlefish have recently been caught oil the north coast of Germany. As they have never before been met with in these waters, it is difficult to account for their presence.
 The Journal L'Apiculteur records a curious observation of a specialist, namely, that nightingales devour the drones of hive and leave workers unmolested. As an experiment, 12 of the former and six of the latter were killed and placed by the hive; the IF were eaten, the six not touched.
 The strongest animals exist en- tirely on vegetable food. It is the ferocity of the lion rather than his strength that makes him formidable. An elephant is a match for several lions, and is s vegetarian. The ami malls with most speed and endurance the horse, the reindeer, the ante iope and others-are also vegetarisns.
 The department of agriculture has recently published an estimate of the animal population of the country on January 1, 1900. It comprised 13.537,- 524 horses, about 100000 mules, about 2s.OOO.OO cattle, 16,292 .s6O milch cows, s1.ss3,O65 sheep.

Fake Telegram.

The Tucson Star calls attention to a species of fraud which is being perpetrated by at least one news paper in the territory, upon its read CTS. The fraud cannot have escaped the notice of the other papers in the territory. as no matter how carefully worded these alleged telegrams are any man who has been in the news paper business can detect the coun- terfeit at glance. Here is the state ment of the Star on the subject:
 'There be some newspapers Out they are few in number) which make it a business to publish so-called tel egraph or Associated Press news which does not come over the wire, or for which the Associated Press is not responsible. They are made up from the imaginings, and are purely the creation of, the telegraph or edi- torlal sanctum of the paper publish ing them as telegraphic news Washington specials are likewise wrought out by the same process, when in fact there is not the slight est fact upon which to even base the so-called telegraph dispatch. Now this is all wrong. It is direct false hood. It misleads the reader. It is a fraud upon the reader, who pur- chases the paper for the news, espec- ially for the telegraphic service Such deception cannot long survive in any community. The people will not tolerate the fraud, especially SC when the fake dispatches are in tended to be of serious damage to the reputation or good name of others. Fake telegrams are the worst kind of frauds"

Russian Generosity.

It is said that Russians are remark able for their impulsiye generosity, and artists who have visited Russia or played for Russians relate that the people when pleased cannot do enough Co express their admiration. A case at hand is that of the Ameri can violinist Leonora Jackson, who was heard in a London drawing room one day by the Russian Princess, Olga Novikoff.

The teacher of class of small boys in Sunday school asked:
 "Who was Moses?"

 Monkeys

"All well-all happy-lots of fun. That is the regular report from the monkey cage of Barnum's Circus ever since the keepers began dosing the monkeys with Scott's Emul- sion. Consumption was carry ing off two thirds of them every year and the circus had to buy new ones.
 One day a keeper accident ally broke a bottle of Scott's Emulsion near the monkey cage and the monkeys eagerly Iapped it up from the floor. This suggested the idea that it might do them good. Since hen the monkeys have received regular doses and the keepers -eport very few deaths from

Fighting for lax Exemptinn.

The Santa Fe Pacific Railroad com pany have had bill introduced il congress which renews the bill passed in congress in aid of the Atlantic 6 Pacific railroad, which exempts the railroad from taxation upon it's right of way.
 In 1879 a similar bill was passed by congress giving the Santa Fe Pa cific, the same exemption. It is now desired to transfer the Santa Fe Pa cifc to the Santa Fe, and with the same exemption.
 The exemption of a railroad iron taxation has proved a bone of conten- ton between the company and the counties through which it runs, and the counties have been forced to ac- cept such amounts for taxation as the railroad company has been pleased to grant.
 Considering the trouble had in the past over this matter, it was deemed by many of our citizens a good op- portunity to make some arrangements whereby the railroad would in the future pay itssjust share of taxation and if possible have the clause in the bill now before congress eliminated With this object in view meeting was called by the board of supervi sors on Thursday night which was largely attended by taxpayers. The object of the meeting was plainly and pointedly stated by E. M. Doe who was followed by E. s. Clark in a short talk, explaining what action had already been taken. A telegram was read from delegate Smith in which he pledged himself to aid the county in obtaining a just taxation from the railroad.
 The board of supervisors have asked District Attorney Jones to ad- wise with the district attorneys Of Mohave, Navajo, Apache and Yava- pal and urge them to join with Coco nino in the matter, and thus obtain while there is opportunity, the elimi nation of the tax exemption clause oi the bill now before congress.

DanIels Arrives in Arizona.

Benjamin F. Daniels, the much confirmed and unconfirmed marshal of Arizona, put in an appearance in Phenix on Thursday. Phenix papers state that he had not heard of the re- turn of his commission to Washing ton until his arrival there. Upon his arrival he immediately telegraphed the president for instructions. Speak ing of his presence in Phenix the Re publican says:
 "With regard to the Wyoming af- fair, MT. Daniels said he had nothing to say; the president himself had been fully informed concerning his record and the whole matter was now in his hands. He said that he had long ago got used to facing charges. The same ones were preferred against him when he was the night mar shal of Cripple Creek. before the Spanish war, but they did not hurt him. As to the charge that he was a gambler, he said that when his nomination was under con- sideration in the senate the first time uc duullJb6u tO CtudIOE 1OdT that ne had dealt faro for a livlihood when he had no other employment, but he was never a professional gambler and altogether had probably never even dealt faro three months in his life.

Manners in ths Street.

It is mark of provincialism and lack of good form for people to walk arm-in-arm, says the March Define ator, or for a man to walk between two ladies; his place is at the outside of the walk. If a lady is very old or infrm and requires assistance, he may offer his arm; otherwise it is un- necessary and is not the custom even after dark. A lady bows first to a man, as it is her privilege to take the initiative in such matters. If people meet several times during the day in walking or driving it is not necessary to bow each time; once is sufficient.

4 Western Financier.

The Journal for Investors in it> last issue publishes full page DOT trait of George U. Young of Williams together with the following biograph- ical sketch of him.
 MT. George U. Young is native oi Hamburg, Ind. With his parents he moved to Kansas when the homestead act was being taken advantage of in all its glory. He is one of the thou sands of those broad minded intel lectual young men that have made and are making the great west. The plains and mountains have been his fields of research and an extensive and well-selected library his closest companion. He has known the sting of want, yet smilinglv and nobly re- spends to the whip of diversity. A teacher, lawyer and newspaper man, combined and i'll succession. besides the master of three trades, he has been sphendidly eq tipped for the fight with circumstances. He understands railroadlng from financial to con- struction and operating, and is we'll versed in the mining world. He is loyal to the core to his friends and spares none of his busy time to his enemies. Absolutely fearless when he thinks he is in the right, he views the kings and peasants alike, as sim ply men. In the late financial crash in the Santa Fe & Grand Canyon railroad he sacrificed modest for tune for any young man in staying by and trying to protect those con cerned, friends and enemies alike, As western literary credit has lately said, He is a man of high education, absolute honor and integrity. intense originality, thinks for himself and teaches others to think"
 Mr. Young is married and has a pleasant home at Williams, Arizona, a thriving town in the northern part of the territory. sr

I have had no more trouble and when one can go to eating mince pie, cheese, candy and nuts. after such a time, their digestion must be pretty good. endorse Kodol Dys- pepsia Cure heartily.
