Mosquitoes and strawberries make
queer combination certainly, but that
is what the people in the neighborhood
of Mount St Elias can boast Of in a
region OF perpetual fee and snow.
Along the edge of the glacier, it is said,
is strip of luxurious vegetation,
where strawberry vines cover the
ground for miles.

Telling "a Horses Age by Wrinkles.
"The popular idea that the age of a
horse can always be told by looking at
his teeth" said a veterinary surgeon,
sis not entirely correct. After the
eighth year the horse has no more new
teeth. SO that the tooth method is use
less for telling the age Of a horse
which is more than eight years old.
AS soon as the set of teeth is complete,
however, wrinkle begins to appear
on the upper edge Of the lower eyelid,
and a new wrinkle Is added each year,
so that to get at the age of a horse
more than eight years old you must
figure the teeth plus the wrinkles"

To really put yourself in the other fellows place is no easy task.
 The man who keeps pace with his good intentions must be quite a sprinter.
 Don't go out of your way to give a hint. No one who really needs a hint will take one.
 We are as great or as small as our own thoughts make us; if we are so small as to be buried under an avalanche of trifies, we have none but ourselves to blame.
 Colonel Wilson is now down in Southern Arizona, and is creating a disturbance in the ranks of the Shannon people that indicates he will stand no monkey business from any political machine work. He says he will travel the straight track and not be switched off this fall.- Prescott Journal Miner.
 The Filipino laborers are fast be- coming Americanized. They are now receiving more than three times the wages paid under Span ish rule, but are not satisfied and have gone out on a strike They have caught on, and are evidently quite observing. There was a time when it was feared that they would be imported to this country and would come in contact with Ameri- can labor. The Filipinos are evil dently capable of looking after their own interests.

Death of Chas. D. Poston-

Charles D. Poston, the pioneer of Arizona, is dead. He died alone in the midst of poverty and the squalid surroundings that for more than two years had been his home Such was the sad ending of the man who was once the foremost person in the territory.
 In the death of Col. c. D. Poston at Phoenix on last Tuesday, Ari- zona has witnessed the passing of an old land mark. In former years he was prominently identified with national affairs and served this ter ritory as its first governor under its military form of government. For several years past his demise has been expected, his health being anything but good. He was always faithful in his friendship for the territory, and his excellent ability has in years gone by been servicea- ble to its interests

F. c. REID, of Flagstaff, was on Tuesday appointed to the position of probate judge and county school superintendent to fill the unex- pired term of N G. Layton. The appointing board was composed of Supervisor Phelan, Treasurer Hox- worth and Recorder Hibben. The gentlemen first named occupying their positions by the grace of the democratic party, it was considered q foregone conclusion that a demo- crat would receive the appointment. MT. Hibben, being a republican, was natually expected to favor a member of that party. The major portion of the day was taken up in discussing the situation, with the result that Hoxworth. finally cast his vote for Reid, the republican applicant for the position. MT. Reid, however, is a good man for the position, as was his opponent, Me Kay, who for several years has been a teacher in the county schools. Under the circumstances "Uncle George" should hesitate before ask ing anything from the democrats in the future
