A curious procedure which seems to be peculiar to Arizona legislatures IS the giving notice" of the introduction of bills. The rules of all properly or ganized legislative bodies provide for the introduction of bills. and why a member should go to the trouble of getting recognition from the speaker and taking the time of the house to give notice" that he is troubled by the pains of authorship and proposes to in troduce a bill at some future day, is Ecomprehensible. It is a survival of the backwoods days which might well be abandoned

 But when the problem was presented to Lee by his chief of artillery he re- piled No, General Alexander, that will not do. You must remember that we are a Christian people. We have fought this fight as long as. and as well as, we know how. We have been de- feated. For us, as a Christian people. there is now but one course to pursue. We must accept the situation; thes 2 men must go home and plant crop. and we must proceed to build up our country on a new basis" Then and there" is Mir Adams comment, Lee decided it's course for the confeder- acy."
 Whether Lees action was the deter mining factor or not. it must be ad- mitted that the weight of his powerful influence at this crisis was on the side of far-seeing staIesmanship. He con- tributed to the extent of his ability to bring about the conditions which per- mitted northern and southern men to meet in New York last night on foot ing of friendship and respect. This fact should not be overlooked in any estimation of Lees place in history. The cause for which he fought is lost. but his services in bringing peace were of themselves sufficient to entitle him to a place in the hearts of men of the Grand Army and of all Americans who value the new national life which he helped . esta tablish.-Kansas City Star.

make a deposit.

deposit took it that the bank had suspended

matter was explained to the countryman' 8
satisfaction, it was too late to recall IL, for
the report spread rapidly and was freely
talked OF all day Sunday. Depositors were

for an hour or two, but of no great proper
lions. In the neighborhood of $4,000 was

~ and aided in trying to quiet the fears
of those who had deposits and were sue
cessful in stemming the tide after a little
time. Many of the heavier depositors dur
ing the two hours of the run made heavy
deposits which soon assured the tmid ones
that the bank not regarded at all

BOSTON, Mass, June 29-Christian
Scientists who visited Mrs. Eddy at Con-
cord, n. H., to-day are back in Boston to-
night, after a most enjoyable trip. 1t is
estimated that 10000 to 1900 were present
at Pleasant View. Some of them went TO
Concord last night, but the main contingent
left here this morning by all regular and
many special trains.
In Concord hospitality of the most gem
erous sort was manifested by the citizens
and every manner of conveyance was
brought into reQuisiNon to transport the
thousands to Mrs. Eddy's home. Some used
the electric trolley line for part of the dis
tance, others drove out in vehicles and
many walked the two miles. This great
host Of visitors constituted a remarkable
tribute to the woman who has founded this
religious system. There was much enthus-
iasm at Pleasant View when Mrs. Eddy,
stepping out upon the balcony of her house,
briefly addressed an open air assembly Of
men and women in a voice that coulS be
well heard. She said:

Pleasant View, but not to varying views.

ture; II Is my sacred motto. and reads thus

shalt thou dwell in the land and verify
thou shalt be fed.
delight myself also in the Lord; and
He shall give thee the desire of thine heart.
Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust
also in Him: and he shall bring II to pass
And he shall bring forth thy righteous
ness as the light, and thy judgment as the
MONDAY.

distances to kneel with US in sacred silence
In blessed communion, unity OF faith,

heads, they shall obtain JOY and gladness
