FIRST PAYMENT MADE.

At the office of Judge Woy, this morning, Superintendent Walter Giraffe hen paid over to O. D. Merrill, Presi- dent c. R. flakes and Farley Shrine the sum of s1.O0O. the first payment on the Governor Rrodie" bismuth mines, located north of Mesa.
 Mir. Graichcn, who represents Hey dan & Co.,, of Saxony, Germany, a few months since secured q working bond and option on the property. He i'm mediately let contracts for sinking the shaft fifty feet. Samples were then taken and sent to Germany for tests with the result that a second contract was let to Q. D. Merrill to sink to water level. which will require from 200 to Z50 feet of work. MT Merrill reports good time made in sinking With six men he has lowered the shaft twenty-five feet in ten days. all the hoisting having been done by wind lass. Supt, Graichen has, however. or dered q whim which will be put on and used for the prospect work.
 The payment made on the claims this morning was in fuliillment of the terms of the bond. and there is no doubt that the remaining payments will be promptly made, as the prop erty is daily showing up to better ad- vantage, and there is every reason to believe that a big mine will be de- veloped.

THEATRE TALK.

Manager F. w. Stechan of the Dor ris theater of Phoenix was here yes terday making arrangements in re- gard to the posting of bills and adver- tising matter cn fences and barns. Speaking of theatrical affairs, MT. Stechan said that up to date the sea son had been very light in Phoenix, due very much to the fact that the opera house at Prescott was no long CT in use and on this account compan- ies coming off of the two main lines of travel have now but one chance to show. where formerly there were two. The time lost and the expense of com ing off the main line for only one per fOcm1nCe is so great that but few good companies can ha induced to make the trip. There will be no more plays in Phoenix this month. but the third of December a first-class eastern com pany will fill an engagement

SHIPS THAT SAILORS PAINT
There Is No Suggestion of Life or
 Motion.

It is an axiom with sailors that there never was man who put in three years before the mast who did not think he could paint a ship better than the most skillful la1dlubber that ever yielded d brush. In the homes of retired sea captains specimens Of this kind of marine art are often dIs- played on the walls to admring friends and are handed down as family heir looms. A good place for the man who has no seagoing relatives or friends Co see some such pictures is in some of the windows of ship supply stores or South street. Sailors buy them occa- sionally.
 Ships that sailors paint are absolute ly correct in every detail From a brig to full rigged three master there is not q block or tackle missing from stem to stern or from masthead to water line. No marine painter could get in half so much detail if he tried. But the ships painted by sailors look as if they were caught fast in frost tipped waves. There is absolutely TO life or any suggestion of motion about them. even when represented as going

A Wasp S Wisdom.

Naturalists have decided that many insects have senses which human be- ings lack. That of location, shown by the wasp, for instance is remark able. One species builds it's nest in a sandbank that is only a part of sever al acres of such soil, and when it leaves in search of food it covers the nest so carefully that no ordinary eye could discover it's location. That is to say it is just like all the surrounding location, and yet the wasp flies back to it without making a mistake. There is another wasp that unerringly locates the eggs of the mason bee under a thick layer of sunbaked clay, and de- posits her own eggs in the same cells that her young may have food when they are matched.

TIE M. E. CHURCH RECEPTION. Over 200 People Join in Welcoming the

Hayden to the reception.
 w. C. Hildreth. acting chairman of the assembly, first called upor Rev. Wilson, whose remarks were rather in the nature of a WeicOma "ddress to the pastor.
 Miss Hyatt and Mrs. Ives then ren- dcred a duet, which was warmly ap- preciated by the guests. This was followed by a talk by Professor Scud- der of the normal faculty.
 Rev. Rollins himself then made a flve-minute address. H. spoke of his arrival herN. how pleased he was at the manner In which the committee took charge of himself and family. Hu- mOrously he likened himself to the minister Of a town in the days of the early west, whose congregation had put up notice on the pulpit saying, Don't shoot; hes doing the best he can" Said he. "Ie at any time my preaching does not come up to your expectations, or you are tempted to find fault with mo for other reasons. I only ask that you give me q fair trial and remember the notice. He's doing the best ke can.''
 pr. Blome and President Matthews of the normal both spoke and Miss Mary COvbell delivered a recitation in a very pleasing manner. After the conclusion of the programme a time was spent in becoming acquainted with the pastor after which the ladies of the church served dainty refreshments.

Expressions that we use nowadays
mctaphorcally were used IN their real
sense IN byFono days For instance,
we speak about beating a retreat"
forgetting perhaps that the phrase
comes from the fact that in war Tins
when a retreat was ordered the drums
were beaten IN a particular manner.
Just as today II is sounded on the bu-
gle. Then, again, one speaks of going
off bag and baggage" How many
know what the baggage" was? This
general idea Is that 1t was part Of tho
soldiers kit. In point of fact the bag"
was originally the soldiers haversack;
the baggage" was his wife. The ia
milisr phrase. ITO give the cold shoul-
der" originated in France. where II
was the custom to serve with cold
shoulder OF mutton instead Of hot meat
guest who had outstayed his well
