 Clifton Era: A party whose name the Era is not permitted to mention at the present time, has been spending few days in Cliff ton looking over the field with a view of constructing an electrical railroad line for Clifton and some of the surrounding camps. He was so favorably impressed with the future of the great copper metropolis that he will ask for franchise from the board of super visors, which will meet next Mon- day in regular session. The super visors will certainly not stand in the way of progress, and will doubtless grant the franchise, but it should be no exclusive affair. The interests of the people should be protected in this matter as far as possible. It is the plan of the promoters to extend the line down the valley to Solomonville and Stafford There are those who think this electric proposition is in some manner connected with the proposed Clifton Durango rail. road

 Prospector: From parties com ing in from the Chiricahuas this afternoon the Prospector learns that a fatal accident occurred near Riggs saw mill a few days since in which a man named Sharp lost his life. Sharp was managing the break on large load of lumber which was being hauled down from the mill for shipment to Douglas, when in some manner the break refused to work and in stepping over to see what was the matter, Sharp fell off. and before he could get out of the way the rear wheel passed diagonally across his body, crushing the intestines and breaking the pelyis bone Sharp lived a few moments after ward. The unfortunate man had been sawyer at the mill some time. He formerly lived at Lordsburg and at Silver City, New Mexico.
 International: From parties who have come from the San Bernar- dino we learn that a good flow of ar tesian water was struck in the first well bored by Mir. Slaughter. The we'll has a 5-inch casing and is down about 3S0 feet. It is located about two miles from the Slaugh- ter home on a mesa which can easily be turned into an excellent tract of farming land. The water comes rushing out of the pipe at the rate of 150 or 160 gallons per minute. The pipe stands about three feet above the surface and water flows out with a rush. Mir. Slaughter bored the first well as an experiment, and now that he has struck a good flow of water, will begin boring a number of wells of large size. He has ordered a new rig and will begin at once to bore a 10-inch we'll which will be followed by other of this size.

 The ClosSett's passengers met many of the Dawson stampeders who went in over the Dalton trail from Carmack's. They were pretty generally without grub, and it is believed that many Of them will have to return to White horse for moro supplies before they succeed iu reaching the diggings at all.

HOW THE WORLD LAUGHS.
Are Unrestrained in the Ex-
preston of Merriment.

High mentality is shown in a laugh.
There are savages in Africa who never
laugh; they grin, that is all; and this
lack of the quality of laughter is a
symptom of their low mentality. The
Chinaman has no hearty bursts Of
laughter. He filters cynically-titters
over the misfortune Of an enemy or the
elopement of a daughter Of friend.
He cannot give utterance to hearty
laugh. When he is delighted. or
amused, or happy, he just looks calm.
with sickly smile on his sallow face.
The Frenchman has reserved laugh,
one which he holds well in hand. Be-
ing a great stickler for dignity he is
afraid that loud and honest laugh
would injure his department, would
demean him in the eyes of his &C
quaintances. You will not hear much
laughter in Paris, though it is true
that the women have a cultivated, mu-
steal "ha-ha-ha" that they use in cafes
when they wish to attract somebody's
attention. The Germans laugh is deep
and prolonged. It comes from far
down somewhere in his stomach. The
laugh of the Irishman is hearty and
resonant, and tickles him from his
eyes to his waist. The Americans and
the English are quick to see the point
of a witticism, and most of them laugh
unrestrainedly. Their mirth is so nat
ural and heartily and unsteady ex-
pressed that you cannot but rejoice on
hearing it. When q funny incident is
told in the presence of a Scotchman,
for a few seconds the point passes un-
noticed; but at last it dawns upon him,
and then his manifestation of apprecia-
ton is expressed by subdued merri-
ment, which, nevertheless, is deeply
earnest.-N. Y. Weekly.

JUDICIAL DIGNITY.
Was Maintained in This Instance AZ
Cost to the Court Of the
Prisoner.

A certain squire of the city, who betrays
his patriotism by presiding in small Of
fec painted red, white and blue, had =
case before him the other day which at
tracted an unusual crowd to the temple of
justice. A young fellow was up before him,
relates the Pittsburg Dispatch, on charge
of stealing brass, and his friends were out
in full force to see that he got q fair
show.
Before the case opened the noise and
confusion became so great that his honor
declared that the next man to indulge in
any unusual outbreak would be elected
from the room. He had hardly ceased
speaking when young man shouted, at
the same time waving his hat above his
head:
"Hooray fur Squire Hooligan!"
"Put him out" roared the court, and in
another instant the young man found him
self being rushed to the door. Order hav-
ing been restored once more, his honor Or
dered that the prisoner be brought before
the bar for trial. The court officer hur-
riedly glanced about through the crowd
and then great light suddenly fell upon
him.
Cant do it your honor" he replied.

Ludella's Spool School
BIZ JESSIE MACMILLAN ANDERSON.

Big spools, little spoo1s! Fat spools,
thin spools! Spools all waist, and spools
with no waist at all! All decl1ed out in
more colors than the rainbow!
Their dresses are mostly skirt, but all
the easier to fit. And what variety OF
skirts! Some hanging down very full
and limp, in gathers; some stiff in
plated kilt; some standing straight out,
just like morning-glory upside down;
bell skirts with full train, and bell skirts
with demi-train; skirts with ruffle round
the bottom, and skirts with panel down
the side

day I listened, while her sister was t0y-

Penelope Martindale."
Here she pulled up a jolly little twist
spool, with a Haunting pink silk skirt
of the upside-down morning-glory
shape, and wide blue ribbon which was

She placed Laura Penelope at one

you'll have to begin at the foot OF
the class; but if you study hard and i'm
prove you'll soon be at the head"
Then, in sQueaky voice, she made
Penelope say: Don't you have any

"Next," sternly.
"N-e ne, die, die, nedle."
And so on, down the whole class, till
she came to the new pupil.

That's right, Laura Penelope. You
may go to the head. You've studied
