ALHAnBRA NOTES
The Movements of People and Other
 Happenings.

Alhambra, July 10.-(Special to The Republican, )-Mrs. H. Renaud enter tained a number of friends at dinner last Sunday. Shortly following dinner. ice cream and melons were indulged n, the entire repast being fully enjoyed by all those present.
 The Alhambra Brick company is working a nine-hour shift each day on the making of brick. The kiln will be filled soon and the burning process commenced.
 J. GOwett is carrying his left arm in sling as a result of a scuffie a few days ago. It was at first thought to be broken, but upon examination it proved to be a severe strain of the wrist. It will incapacitate him, never theless.
 Louis Charlebois stole a march on his friends here by procuring a license and yesterday proceeding to the city and returning with Miss H. Taylor of Phoenix as his companion through life. His many friends in this community extend congratulations and wishes for long and happy lives.
 The national birthday was well ob- served here by young and old in the continuous booming Of cannon and cracker. No one hurt or not property destroyed.
 A visit by your correspondent to the plant of the Arizona Dairy and Pro- duch company on the Black Canyon road revealed a scene of real activity. In addition to the new creamery build ing. which as equipped with three inn proved separators and large churn, there has also been erected an engine room adjoining on the north, and a cold storage room 15X15 on the south. The engine room contains a gasoline engine and expansion engine, and tanks necessary for the generation of gas for cold storage. The storage room, in addition to being equipped for coal ing. has two ice tanks which will fur nish ice sufficient for butter shipping purposes. Under the able manage ment of M. Evans, the plant is enjoy ing a liberal patronage, some fifteen ranchers being daily visitors with their milk, and everything bids fair that the company will be repaid for their ex- tensive improvement and enlargement. Mir and Mrs. k. F.. Stroud spent the Fourth and Sunday visiting with rela- tives at Mesa.
 Miss May Earle left Tuesday for a months visit with her father at Providence. Ariz.
 MT and Mrs. Lin Orme and son leave here tomorrow for an outing of several weeks at Iron Springs. Luke Harden gave q dancing party at the town hall last Friday evening which was well attended. several from Phoenix being present. A good time was had by all.

"NEIGHBOR ROOSEVELT"

The posters announcing the celebra- tion of the two hundred and fiftieth an- niversary of the settlement of Hunt ington. l.. l.. tell the joyous crowds that "Neighbor Roosevelt" will be there The people of Huntington and their illustrious neighbor are equally fortu- nate in the association.
 When God made the country He filled it with neighDors. When man made the town he devised many other at fractions. but he forgot that one. which is more important than almost all the rest. There are no neighbors in the city. A man in Harlem may have a friend in Brooklyn and another on Murray Hill. and he may see them two or three times a year. But the person who lives in the next house or the next flat is a stranger. Distant friends can not take the place of neighbors They can't run in" when they happen to feel like it. A trip from Brooklyn to Harlem is an event and must be care fully planned beforehand.
 Friendship without the sweet aroma of neighborliness becomes insipid. Like love. it needs propinquity to keep up its flavor. A long distance friendship tends to fade, first into mere acquaintance and then into indifference and forget fitness. The inhabitant of a city is in constant danger of becoming a solitary animal. The evolution that herds men together in urban masses completes its circuit by dissolving the social ties and bringing the member of the physical crowd to the mental loneliness of the cave dweller.
 But in the country there are still 1,a ierb xrrif oil he ,,,o plies. And that fact sufficiently explains why President Roosevelt clings to his old haunts on Long Island. and finds a solid comfort there that is lacking in the hard glitter of Washington society New York World

OUR RAILWAY POPULATION.

The interstate commerce commits sion's report, recently issued. shows that in the year ended June 30. 1902, the railway companies of the United States employed 1,1S9.315 men. or about 5.S4 per mile of road. and 46 more per mile than were employed in the previous year. At present, with the observed rate of increase. the total number of railway employees is about 1907 ,000, and the families directly supported aggregate about 5.200000 persons. AS great num- bers of men besides are supported by the industries-furnaces. rolling mills and car shops-which furnish supplies to the railways. it is perhaps not exceed ing moderation to say that over 5000, GOO people are dependent on the railways for a living. The Railway Age com paTes the average of 5.94 railway em- ployes in 1902 with the average of Al in 1895 and 5.15 in 1902. Hard times and scant business accounted for the figure for 1895, while larger traffic demanded the number employed in the other years. If hard times should bring back the average of Al per mile this would mean the dismissal of 312,O00 men. or a heavy reduction of wages.-Baltimore Sun,

THE SENATOR WAS RESIGNED.
An Anecdote Told of Senator Quay and
 His Associate.

Senator Matt Quay tells a story to illustrate Senator Penrose's loyalty Q the organization without regard for his personal opinions or comforts. Quay, in a spirit of well-concealed raillery. told the junior senator one day that no inconsiderable part of official popu- larity lay in entertaining during the Washington season, and advised him to go in more lavishly for social hon. ors and attentions.
 Why" said Senator Quay. "a sena- tor of your age ought to be married. Indeed. Penrose. I'd advise you for the sake of the organization to get mar ried. Your chances for reelection through influential demand by the big wigs will be increasing a thousand fold if you take a charming wife down there with you next term. With your money. you ought to be able to do It well'
 Senator Penrose pondered deeply a minute or two. and then asked: Do you really think a thing like that counts?"
 "Sure!" aswcred the senior senator.

swAMPs OF NEW ORLEANS.
Mosquito Pest to be Removed by Draining Lands Near Lake Pont-
 chartrain.

There is going on within the limits of New Orleans a drainage work that premises to dry up nearly all of the swamp land between the building limits of the city and Lake Pontcnartrain, on the lower side of New Basin Canal. This work began last November. and has gone on continuously ever since. The results are very satisfactory, even though the canals have not yet been connected with the pumping station.
 A New Orleans land company, which has bought up all the swamp lands from the New Basin Canal to Bayou St. John and from the cemeteries to the lake, started a plan last summer to clear out the water which has for years stood on all that vast area. The land is not lower than the ordinary level of the city but the water has been kept in by the levees. where there were levees. and backed in from the lake. where there was none. The area which is now being drained is protected from the lake water by levees, and as soon as the canals are completed and the drain age pump takes the water out. the land should be as dry as any part of the city.
 One effect of the draining of this swamp VIII De 10 dlmlnlsn the nu1nDer l of mosquitoes. and when the land which lies above the West End tracks is drained. as well as that extending from the New Orleans and Western to Bayou St. John, there ought to be a great decrease in mosquitoes and ma laria- On account of the water which ! comes into the latter areas from the lake, they will require leveeing before they can be effectively drained.-New | Orleans Picayune.

A STRANGE PAPER WEIGHT

Glass Triangular Prism at Smithson-
 ian that Deceives the Eye.
 One of the most remarkable objects in the American historical collection which occupies the front hall of the National Museum is the paper weight of Prof Henry, for many years secre- tary of the Smithsonian Institution. It is a triangular prism of clear traEspar- ent glass, about six inches in height. Into the edge, or sharp back of the tri- angle, the skillful workman who turned out this singular paperweight carved q series of grooves and hollows which appear absolutely meaningless when viewed from the side, but when looked at through the broad surface of the front of the prism resolve themselves into a beautiful Etruscan vase
 In reality there exists only one side of this remarkable vase, the other two being a reflection on the two angles or the prism of the original. Viewed through the flat surface of the opposite angle. the vase has four handles, but if the back is examined, it will be found to have only two.
 In all the collection of personal relics. jewels, objects de luxe, oddities, and things of value of the great Americans from Washington down, this. without doubt, is one of the most peculiar and interesting.

But the Man in the Case Decided to
 Continue His Journey Later.
 "There is nothing" he thought. like a quiet little filtration to pass away the time on a railroad journey"
 Then he looked about him to see if any one of the opposite sex seemed to have similar views and his eyes were gladdened by. the sight of a pretty young woman.
 Shell do." he decided. and presently he caught her eye. There was neither repulse nor invitation in the glance she gave him. so he decided that it was all right. Nothing but an outward show of anger or indignation will dis courage such man.
 Presently he moved over to her seat. Again there was neither repulse nor encouragement.
 It's all right" he told himself and he opened the conversation.
 ''Wht's the next station," she asked idly.
 He told her and the information seemed to give her some amusement. She langhed quietly. and then let him continue his silly compliments. She did not return them, but she kept look i.g at him with an amused smile. as if she enjoyed the situation in some way that he did not understand. He re- doubled his efforts to force some rec ognition O: his alleged gallantry. but he failed.
 What is it that amuses you?" he asked finally.
 'I am thinking" she answered, "of what will happen when we reach the next station
 Why" he demanded.
 My husband is to join me there, |" she replied. Hell be delighted to meet you l know. for he hasn't had any recreation lately"
 Any recreation!'
 And he's a man of violent temper as well as great energy" she went on. He needs exercise"
 He looked at her anxiously. She was still smiling.
 I'm sorry" he said, but I get off at the next station"
 Wont you wait a moment, just to meet Jim?' she asked.
 TT don't believe I can," he re- turned
 Hen be very anxious to see you when I tell him about this,' she urged, and he won't detain you long. We're just slowing up for the station now"
 The man who felt the need of a title pleasurable excitement to drive away the ennui of travel hastily picked up his grip and slipped out the rear door of the car. Somehow he thought he would prefer to continue his journey on the next train.
 It wasn't until he had been left alone on the platform that it suddenly dawn cd upon him that no man had boarded the train at that point. As for the girl, she was still smiling when she picked up her book to continue her reading. And no man joined her
 But, then as she afterward told a friend in recounting the experience, "a girl doesn't need a real husband to pro- tect her from annoyance, if she only has sufficient originality to invent one at the proper time Brooklyn Eagle.

SOME NEW FACTS ABOUT
 APPENDICITIS.
Why None Need Fear If Careful.

Hospital records indicate that nearly one-third of all surgical operations are for appendicitis, and the unfortunate fea- ture is that eighty per cent. could have been avoided altogether.
 The old theory about grapes and other seeds has been discarded, and any good doctor will tell you nowadays that con stipation causes appendicitis almost with out exception.
 The opening into the appendix is no larger than the head of alarming needle, but if the least foreign substance enters. inflammation ensues, and there is sure to be trouble.
 Constipation and appendicitis will never trouble you if your bowels are reg ulated with LaXakola.

 Mrs. Buck then heartily welcomed the new members, stating that while the membership was increasing there was still room for more, and that it was the hope of this union to win the banner given by the Territorial union for the largest increase in membership. After more music by the club, social time was enjoyed by all, following which ice cream and cake were served.
