 Famous Order.

Bome of the Early History of This
 Famous Order.
 The Knights of Malta have a history that reaches back to 104S and Is one that is worth reading.
 The order of the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem. otherwise called the Knights of Rhodes and afterward Malta, a celebrated military order of the middle ages. originated about 104S tn a hospital dedicated to St. John the Baptist which some merchants built Of pilgrims to the holy sepulcher.
 After the conquest of Jerusalem by the crusaders under Godfrey Bouillon In 1899 the hospital servants were Joined by many from the Christian ar my. who resolved to devote their services to the care of the poor and sick pilgrims.
 They were known as the Knights of St. John through the various crusades to the time when the order took 6 strong hold in Scotland. The order spread rapidly throughout Scotland. where 1t is at the present day recog. nized as the Knights of Malta.
 The Knights of Malta were driven from Jerusalem. Acre, from the isle of Rhodes and finally found refuge on the island of Melita or Malta. Malta. ism was introduced into America in 1870, the supreme grand commandery being chartered in 1889.

SURVEYING PARTY
 LEAVES DOUGLAS
CIVIL ENGINEERS ARE MAKING A
 REcoNNoisANcE OF LINE.
C. 2. karns and H. L. Garretson Will Leave Douglas in a Few Days to Inspect the Proposed Route.
 Special to Revievb


 Douglas. Aug. 5.-C. F. Karns and H. L. Garretson arrived on the morn ing train from Benson yesterday moru. ing, and proceeded to the San Der nardino ranch.
 These gentlemen will have charge of surveying party that will gain go over the route for the railroad that the American Exploration company is making preparations to build into the Sierra Madre mountains.
 Before leaving Douglas these gentle men purchased a large amount If supplies and had them shipped to San Bernardino firm which point the start will be made.
 It will be remembered that a sur veing party looking out route for this road arrived at San Bernardino from the Sierra Madres some weeks ago, and stored their camp eQuippage there.
 Although Messrs. Karns and Garrett son were very reticent, it is presumed this trip is for the purpose of making d pti lHc lutSI- national line to the terminus in Mex ico.
 It is learned from a gentleman :n Douglas who is we'll acquainted with F. M. Murphy, the head of the com pany, that Mir Murphy is in favor of making Douglas the terminus of the road in the United States. That be- ing the case, an opportunity is offered for action by chamber of commerce. Energetic action by such a body of our business men would in all proba- bility, bring the road here. It is use less % enlarge on the benefits such a road would confer on the town.
 The beginning of work on this road would in all probability result in the immediate extension of the road from Pearce to Bisbee and Douglas. when this town would become one of the most important railroad centers in the southwest.

I had made a bet that the first boat
would get in on the 14th Of the month.
All day long l listened for the boats
whistle, rs did many other fellows who
were betting the same way. At night
| went to a political meeting, which
broke up about ten o'clock. I went
home and went to bed. Along in the
night ! heard the whistle OF a steamer
on the river. / sprang out of bed and
by my watch 1t wa II minutes to 10
o'clock. I went back to bed wonder
ing what time the captain would make
the landing. The next morning I
found everybody downtown engaged in
the hottest kind of a dispute about
whether the boat arrived on the 14th
or 18th. A number Of fellows came to
blows and there was great excitement.
Finally there was an agreement that
the time Of docking the vessel should
settle the matter, and hat the settle
ment OF the dispute should be left to
the captain Of the steamer. An i'm
mense delegation went down and wait
ed on that officer, assuring nim that
the air was full of trouble. The cap
tain said that he knew there would be
a great deal Of contention about the
matter and that he decided to look at
the time when the boat was at the
dock and the gang plank out for bust
ness, AS the gang plank was thrown
out, he said, his watch stood at three
minutes to II o'clock, which made the
time of arrival the 18th. That settled
all the bets, although there was much
grumbling and kicking about the pos
sibility that the captains watch was
slow"

GIRLS CHOOSE HUSBANDS.
Gypsy Maidens in Hungary Are Priv.
iIcEcd to select Their Life
Partners.

In England leap year is supposed to
confer upon the fair sex the privilege of
choosing life partners for better or for
worse, but the cutsom is more honored in
the breach than in the observance, says
the London Telegraph. The gypsies, es-
pecially in Hungary, enjoy and make ev-
tensive use Of the right at all times, in
accordance with an ancient custom. Thus
a marriageable young gypsy girl in the
land Of Magyars, az soon as her heart
is sniitten, takes good care that the
SmIter shall hear Of tho havoc he has
wrought and have a chance Of consoliEg
her. With this praiseWorthy object in
view, she has a o ge letter indited, places
q coin in a piece Of dough, bakes it, and
throws the cake and the billet douX dur
ing the night into the bedchamber Of her
bridegroom-elect. Then she possesses
her soul in patience and awaitg develop
ments. The Burmese maiden begins her
marriage campaign at a much earlier
stage. In order to get together b gCodly
gathering Of young men from whom to
choose, she places a lamp in her window
at night Is known as the lamp OF
love- and entices all those youths who
are candidates for the order of benedict.
In sunny Andalusia the peasant girl
whose heart has been stolen by a stall

,fai The City Board of Assessors Of

real estate assessment IN every portion
of that city. That same decision was
WV reached by Perth Amboy's Board of
10 Assessors some time ago. After
cd reaching that decision the local board
o went ahead and did it. This is not
MS the case at Trenton, however. The
WI assessors, having decided to readjust
lax the valuations, first call a meeting to
far which they invite all the real estate
bic dealers in the city. They GO still
further and send out invitations to
ica- 100 of the largest real estate owners
,dal in the city, representing all sections.
q % These men will meet with the assess
oh ors Monday night, November 30, and
5eJ. will be asked to discuss the increase
lefr in valuation, giving what they believe
syn to be a fair raise, and their reasons.

IN the promised meeting, " says the Tren-
