Confidence in God-G Cor. 3. 21:23; I
Tim. 6. II; Tim. I. 12.)

"All things are yours q Cor. 3. 2D;
Hope set on God, who
giveth us richly all things to enjoy
IL Tim. 6. ~. 1t is the giver who
can be trusted. This Is why the hearts
Of men turn to the benefactors and
philanthrorists, to those who give not
alone money. but themselves. So God
is the great Giver. Every good gift
and every perfect gift is from above,
coming down from the Father of
lights" (James /. ~. THE free gift
of God is eternal life" from. 6. 23).
And God has given himself in giving
his only begotten Son" He that
spared not his own Son, but delivered
him up for Us all, how shall he not also
with him freely give us all things?"
(Rom. s. 32). God delights to share
whatever he possesses. Because al
things are his lin Christ" they are
ours; and they are ours richly to er-
joy" Surely we can have confidence
in such a God
Il know him whom | have believed
q Tim. l. 12). Confidence in God
brings us into intimate acquaintance
with God. 1t is said that when a saint.

when the one to be comforted made
the correction, whom have believed
and stated that they could not allow

him and his Savior.
Confidence in God is the central ele
ment in what may be called saving
faith. Many appear to find it very
difficult to understand the nature OF
faith. because its inner core of power
is associated with other factors. such
as mental belief in the being of God
and in the Bible as from him, or that
Christ Is divine ana in his work on
earth atoned for sin. All this may
be held without eXerting any saving
influence In our lives, as James 2. 10
says that "the demons also believe.
and shudder." But confidence In God
means that we actually take him at
his word and intrust ourselves to him,
as man intrusts himself to a ship
when he goes on board for a voyage.

The Thrifty Editor,

Not long ago an Eastern Senator
received request from a country edi
tor in a mountainous section for big
package of seeds. He desired a good.
ly number of packages. which were
forthwith sent to him. as 1t was sup
posed, for free distribution among the
farmers of his vicinity. The Senator
had been in the habit Of sending cut
big packages of the seeds furnished
by the Agricultural Department, te
prominent men in different localities
who disposed of them where they
would do good.
Thus the Senator acquired knowl
edge of a new use for the generous
gratuity of the government, It wasnt

Lesson Thoughts.
AS soon as we lose our trust and
confidence in God, and feel independ
ent of his care and protection, we be-
come prodigals in far country and
will soon be in sad want.
Our worthiness to be Gods children
depends upon our Willingness to be his
servants.
What an encouraging truth is this,
that We need not plead with God for
forgiveness, for He is even more will
ing TO forgive than sinners are to be
forgiven: he waits and watches eagerly
for their return and receives them to
himself at the first expression of true
repentance.
Selections,
Repentance without amendment has
been compared to continual pumping
in ship without stopping the leaks.
When a Russian soldier, heavily in
debt. wrote out list of his many OBJ
legations and exhibited it in a public
place. adding in large letters the qucs.
tion. Who will pay these debts?" the
Car happened to see the whimsical
notice. and quietly wrote his name
after the question: Nicholas" The
soldier knew that he was free from
his creditors. AS simple as this, alb
solutely as simple, is the souls way
to get rid of its sins.
There is one heart that is filled with
generous kindness toward every man
who wants to repent. The voice OF
God is calling you. The sound of youl
Fathers voice is in your heart.
Trust God. Remember that he
is on your side. and does
not desire that any man should die
but rather that all should turn and
live.
Many persons who appear to repent
are like sailors who throw their goods
overheard in a storm and wish fol
them again in calm.
Suggested Hymns.
Turn thee. o lost one, care-worn ant
weary.
o word of words the sweetest.
Jesus is tenderly calling thee home.
o happy day. that fixed my choice.
Return, Return! o wanderer, now re
| turn.
We are coming home to Jesus.

Women as Dispensers OF Medicine

Although the outside world knows
but little about ii, there are some hun
drcds OF women who spend their work
ing hours in mixing drugs and dispens-
ing medicines. Some have passed on
and become chemists, the first woman
chemist in London having qualified as
long ago as 1875. But there are many
who are simply dispensers in the dis
pcnsing rooms OF the large hospitals,
or helping private doctors. or employ.
ed by the large dispensing chemists
and in the laboratories OF large dyeing
and chemical works. To great extent
these women are the daughters OF med
ical men. for the fact that the portals
OF this profession were open and, COM
parativcly speaking, were easy for wo-
men to enter, has hardly been realized
until lately by others.
Many apothecarieS say women make
much better dispensers than men; ior
they are neatcr and take up the proics-
sion more as a life work. Men who
have failed in their examinations fall
back upon dispensing, but women go
in for it, and you know women are nat
urally more careful in little things; they
are more accurate. This is no doubt
why they get on so well i'll this proics-
sion. They are much ncater than men
are; you go into mans dispensary
after busy morning perhaps after
rush. and you wouldn't be able to find
thing-he wouldn't hmself-not a
thing; but il it is woman who does
,he dispensing you will soon see the
difference. Evoly bottle will be in its
place, everything neat, spick and span
and ready icr use in moment. No
time is wasted there in a glorious hunt
around for the simplest thing.

A CONSTANTLY increasing number OF
n physicians prescribe Peruna in their
regular practice. 1t has proven its merits
so thoroughly that even the doctors have
overcome their prejudice against so-called
patent medicines and recommend it to
their patients.
Peruna occupies unique position in
medical science. 1t is the only internal
systemic catarrh remedy known to the
medical profession to-day. Catarrh, as
everyone will admit. is the cause of one

rection of Capt. Baldwin, U. s. A. Soon Company B became the best drilled and disciplined company of the National Guard of Arizona according to the report made by Capt. Baldwin after inspecting all the companies in the territory in December, 1897. After the Spanish American war broke out Capt. Baldwin urgently recommended that Capt. Lamson be given commits sion in the volunteer service as the national guard organizations of the territory would not be permitted to en- dist as organized. The governor did not issue the commission so Capt Lamson told him he would enlist as private which he did June 30 1898 and July 4th was mustered Into the volun- teer service as first sergeant Company A, First Territorial U. S. ", resign ing his commission in the national guard the same day. On October 19, 1898. he was commissioned second lieutenant in the same company and when the regiment moved from Lex ington, Ky. to Albany. Ga, he was in charge of the transportation train. A few weeks later he was temporarily transferred to the Oklahoma battalion and placed in command of Company l. all of the officers Of that company be- ing absent or sick. He was mustered out of the service with the Arizona battalion Feb. 15. 1899. On November T. 1901, he was again elected and com missioned captain of company. N. G. A. In July, 1902. Capt. Lamson re- ceived permission from Governor Brodie to take his company in camp at Iron Springs for one week. The company to stand all the expenses of the encampment. On June g, 1903, when six companies of the N. G. A. were ordered to Morenci, Col. MClintock ap pointed Capt. Lamson officer of the day. and he was on duty from 1:15 D. m. June 9th until a. m. June 11th. On the night of June 10th at Morenci, guided by three rangers, he posted all of the companies and most of the sen tries that were to be on duty that night, and had them arranged so that when the strikers awoke next morning there was no place in the town where they could form a mob. During the time the N. G. A. was in Morenci, by order of Col. MClintock. Capt. Lamson was in command of the Second bat tallion composed of Companies B. C, and D.

Captain Lamson Will Resign His
 Command This Week.

After regular drill at the arnory last night Capt. E. NJ. Lamson an- nounced to the company that before another drill night his resignation as commanding officer of the company would be in the hands of the governor and that he would make application to be retired from active service. He stated that he had served the full time required by law, seven years, and that his private business required practical ly all his time. If he continued longer as commanding officer of the company he would be obliged to neglect com pany business which would be detri mental to all concerned.
 It Is probable that Capt. Lamson will be succeeded by First Lieutenant James A. Parks, who is very popular among the rank and file and who has also done good service both in the militia and the volunteer service of the government. Lieut.. Parks is an Eng lishman by birth, served with the Brit ish volunteers and on coming to this country enlisted in the Minnesota Ma tional Guard of which he was a mem Der till he came to Phoenix and joined the Arizona esta blishment.

THE SOUTH IS COMING ON
An Electric Light Franchise Fight at
 Tucson.

Nose Drachman came to town yes terday morning after a longer absence than usual. He has been busy in the southern part of the territory He has become interested in a gas fran chise in the town of Douglas. The plant will not be built at once but when ever the town\is ready for 1t the franchise holders will begin to get ready for the transaction of business.
 MT. Drachman believes that Bisbee within few years will be the princl- pal town of the territory. It is grow ing every day until that bowl in the Mule mountains is overfiowing. Con corning the new town site of Don Luis, of which The Republican had tele- graphic story yesterday morning MT. Drachman believes it will itself get to be a big place and eventually part of Bisbee. Ii is admirably situated and it is the first or nearest place outside the bowl where a town could be built.
 Judge Barnes is at the head of a company for the building of electric roads throughout that part of the country and Don Luis is one of the proposed points on the line.
 When it was decided to remove the shelter of the Copper Queen to Doug las some people thought that Bisbee would suffer. On the contrary it has been growing faster ever since. For since then there has been an unheard of development of activity in mining. Beside the Copper Queen there are twenty-three mines in active operation in the neighborhood of Bisbee.
 Tucson MT. Drachman said is par taking of the general prosperity of the south. Visitors are coming in by hun dreds and are filling up the town. The great Santa Rita hotel. is nearing com- pletion and will be thrown open soon for those who wish first class enter tainment.'
 The most interesting thing in Tucson now is the question of the extent of the franchise of the electric light com- pany which will shortly expire. The members of the company are mostly Denver men though they have local representatives. There is a division of public sentiment regarding the eXten- sion of the franchise. The street car company composed wholly of local men want one and offer to furnish arc lights to the city at s a month. The pres ent price is S10.
 The street car company Is at present using horse or mule power but if it can get a franchise it will put in an cleo trict plant. It will perhaps do so any how for the proposition has become d paying one. At first it looked like an unsuccessful experiment and even the promoters were discouraged. In the rainy season the track was submerged by mud and in the dry season, by dust. It took a navigator to run cars on that line a man who understood the IlSe of the chart and compass and was capa- ble of making a dead reckoning.
 Within the last two years the system has been run with degree of energy. Last year it's receipts were s1o0 a month. This year they have increased to $500.

SUPREME COURT A
 PECULIAR TRIBUNAL

The supreme court of the United States does business on an antiquated plan. While it is undoubtedly the most dignitied body of men in this country, if not in the world, it has it's peculiarities and tfey are striking ones.
 One of the traditions of the court prevents newspaper correspondent tS from attending the session of the court in their prOfesslOnal capacity. ProviS- ion is made for representative of each of the great press asSocia tions, but the corresponds ntS have to push and crowd in behir the rear railing with the hundreds of other spectators. Usually they have to stand up, and if they are seen taking notes an attend ant escorts them to the door. The re- suit is that the POO or nore correspond entS have to depend on their memory for their reports of proceedings in the supreme court room.
 There is another court custom which prevents correspondents from seeing the opinions handed down until they have secured auth ority from the judges who Seyerally deliver them from the bench. This authority is not always given, the judge exercising his own discretion about 1t. Not infrequently the correspondent has to 20 to the home of the judge to get the written authority, and perhaps by the time he gets back to the capitol the office of the clerk of the court is closed.

Mark Twain's Short Words

The more vital the writer the sim pier and more direct his appeal. No careful student of literature can have failed to note that under great stress of feeling a strong writer becomes al- most monosy llabic. In Mark Twain's story in this number of the magazine the number of words averages 836 to the page. The usual number is less than 750. The shorter the words the more of Anglo-Saxon yigor. This point is of especial interest in the case of an author who of all the story writers of our time has the widest ap- peal Editor Alden, in Harper's Mag. aZine.
