The Rutland (Vermont) News
says: When one county in
this State Washington reports
within a few weeks five cases of
felonious assault upon little girls
it is high time to take heroic
measures. A lynching or two in
this State, where the brute's guilt
was indisputable, would not only
be no disgrace, but would be the
removal of Disgrace"

to Behring Sea, an arm of the
Pacific, on the east, distance of
neatly six thousand miles or near
~ half way round the world in
the latitude of st. Petersburg.
It's limits on the north are the ice
bound shores of the Arctic, while
on the south succession of vast
mountain chains form a barrier
between it and Central Asia.
Comprising altogether 8,5OO,0O
square miles Of territory and
population of 131, 900, 900, it has
an extent nearly three times, and
a population nearly twice as great
as, that of the United States.
Though it comprises more than
half of Europe and about one
third of Asia yet it contains only
two-sevenths of Europe's and
one-thir6eth of Asia's population.

The men who succeed are in
general the men who are patiently
studious, the men who ground
themselves thoroughly for some
special calling and devote all their
efforts not so much to gaining re-
wards as to deserving them. The
man whose motive for effort lies
in the prize to be won seldom has
the patience to prepare to win it;
the man whose motive is to do
good work, to accomplish for the
present the best of which he is
capable, is the man who builds up
character and reputation alike and
sooner or later reaches the goal of
his ambition. The world has
reached a feverish and impatient
age, an age of daring speculation,
but it has not yet reached an age
when it can do without the men
who know, the men who have by
patient effort mastered the art or
science they have chosen for their
special study. Patient effort is
still the surest means of success
in life.

FUNERAL OF A. Y. PEARSON
Career of a Remarkably Successful
 Business Man.

The funeral service over the remains of A. Y. Pearson. who died Monday afternoon, will be held this afternoon at2 o'clock at the family residence near the west end Of the car line. The ser vice will be conducted by Rev. C. " Cowan. The final disposition of the re- mains has not yet been determined upon. and they will be held for the time being The passing of Mir. Pear son marks the closing of a short but remarkable business career. as he was only forty years of age and was en- tirely a self-made man, inheritius nothing but his genius, business judg- l2ent and his capacity for work.
 Tn his earlier life he was intimately connected with the theatrical profes sion through his ownership of many notable plays, though he was not a playwright himself. and his manage nent of that business afforded him good financial returns till failing health about eleven years ago forced him to seek different occupation. He went to Asheville, N. C., where for time he was under the treatment of Dr. I-arl von RUck, the famous tubercu- IOsis specialist. Later he acquired con-

From California he took a number Of Cstriches to the Omaha exposition. after which it dawned upon him that the ostrich business might be made d great enterprise if it could be properly handled. So he tt once began to plan the acquiring of all the birds in tho country and the selection of the best possible place for their breeding. H. came to Phoenix about three years ago. bought the Phoenix ostrich farm and birds, and though so sick he was un- able To work more than half the time he Carried out his plans so well that ia q short time h. had bought all the birds in tho United States except few that are held fer exhibition purposes. The holdings comprising the Phoenix farm now amount to approximately 1000 acres and in the neighborhood of 1000 birds. The enterprise has become an investment of huge proportions and is now frequently referred to as the os- triCh farm trust.

\ SOILED DONE.--Algernon Dove. slightly soilcd and better known as Babe, was sent to jail again yesterday for five days by the city recorder for drunkenness. Ed Walters Was given fifteen-day sentence on the charge of vagIancy. Walters is a stranger in the land, though Ee is one of those philoso- phcrs who can make themselves at home anywhere. Officer Lawrence az rested him yesterday morning after finding him asleep in the cab of a loco motive standing in the $. F., P. C r. yards. The engine had pulled in the train from the north shortly after o'clock, and when the crew left it there was still sufficient fire in the box to make the cab a fairly comfo,ta bla sleeping place. so Walters went to bed.
 LAZARUS GRAVES-In the case of Daniel Graves. alias Richard Lazarus. charged with being q fugitive from justice in Sacramento, Cal. nothing Of importance developed yesterday. Mar sHGl Kinney expects 9 letter of explan- ation from the Sacramento sheriff this morning. though on the advice of the district attorney he wired yesterday to the ulSulcl attorney or sacramento county to hurry things up if he desired Graves held. The marslaI has no doubt that he has the right man. and il is only a question of whether the California authorities want to prosecute him CT not. To comply with the stat ut5s Graves will be grraigncl today before Justice Burnett.
 CHINESE NEW YEAR-Chiues- new year arrived about midnight and will play a ten days engagement this season. In the homeland it takes about two weeks to pull off the new year festivities, but in this country the Ce- lCstials are rather more modest in their celebrations. There was the usual out burst of joy and burning powder at midnight. in which custom the Chinese are but a triie more civilized than the Americans. This evening about $ o'clock it is expected there will be a big firecracker demonstration, and for the succeeding ten days exuberance will be manifest intermittently and spas medically. About February 4th the celebration will reach it's climax, and in the matter of frecrackers it will make the Fourth Of July look like thirty cents.

as to the value of MT. Pearson's estate, it will require at least six figures U represent 1t and the figures used will by TO means be the smallest ones.
 MT. Pearson was confined to his bed for six weeks previous to his death and realized fully that the sands Of his glass were passing rapidly. With good busi- ness Judgment, therefore. and thought fitness for his family he made pro- vision for the continuance of the busi- ness as it is now organized. providing ss far as possible against any losses that might otherwise occur to the es- tate through his death.
 Mir. Pearson was a remarkably mod est and retiring gentleman. who never sought publicity save when publicity was necessary in a business way, and bore the esteem Of all his acquaint- Grces and those who had dealing with him. He leaves to mourn him of his immediate family, a wife, son and daughter.

STRIKE IN CATOCTIN
A 15 Inch Vein of $200. Ore in a
 Yavapai Mine.

4 gentleman who came down from Prescott yesterday brought the news of a rich strike of gold ore in the Cat octin mine which is situated eight and a half mile southwest of Prescott.
 The Catoctin will be remembered by those who are posted in mining mat ters, as the property formerly owned by T. C. Barlow Massicks, who died a few years ago after a lingering illness following an accidental wound from his own pistol. Father QUetu of Prescott was the administrator Of the estate and some time ago he succeeded in bonding the property for a gCod sum to Cincir- nati capitalists who have made one payment on it.
 TEe mine has been developed con- siderably under those who have had charge of it from time to time and in the old silver days it was considered very valuable, producing largely Of the white metal.
 One of the gentlemen forming the company holding the bond, has been in Prescott for some time and intend ed to leave for home last Saturday W hen the news was brought to town that a rich strike had been made in the lower workings, in fact only a few feet below one of the former openings. He was naturally interested and re- mained over a few days to see what would come of the strike on further development. After two or three days work it is now given out that the rich streak referred to is fifteen inches wide and assays $2C0 per ton in gold.
