John Rright,n sneeches.

John Bright had a curious method of
guarding against any failure of mem
Ory or language in his public speeches.
When he had to deliver a speech Of
Importance he wrote a sort of essay on
the subject and tore it up. He then
wrote another and treated it in the
same way, and finally a third In this
way he considered that he had not only
exhausted his own thoughts upon the
matter in hand, but had gained such a
command over the language in which
it could be expressed that he could nev
er be at q loss for the right word.

high and lucrative post Of governor OF
Ekaterinoslaff to go to the front, and
exchanged with General Zassalitch'
who may now resume the command OF
the first Siberian army corps.
The loss of General Keller is deeply
felt in court circles. He was a personal
favorite of the emperor. His sister
Countess Kleinmichel, is one OF the
leaders of st. Petersburg society.
Lieutenant General Count Keller at
the opening of the war was in COM

paigns of the Russo-Turkish war IN
1887 he commanded the imperial rllie
regiment. and later was director OF the
corps of imperial pages, by when hel-
Ter came in contact with the members
of the imperial family, with whom ne
was in great favor. General Keller was
considered to be the pOssessor OF cooi
Judgment and to be a fine straIesls''
Though a strict disciplinarian, helleI
was a kind and careful officer and pop

dressed in khaki. His only decoration
was the cross Of the military order ol
St. George. which he wore on the oreas'

Effective Eireproofing.

Chemist Ferrel, of Philadelphia, Is demonstrating that wood can be made absolutely impervious to fire, even of the fiercest type, by soaking it in sul- phate of aluminium. MT. Ferrel has soaked excelsior, pine shavings, oak. poplar and canvas in the sulphate and then subjected the mass to the hottest possible fires-the fires dying out, leav- ing the soaked and stipulated material altogether uDinjured by contact with the flames. Mir. Ferrel thinks he has solved the question of the safety of theaters and other public halls where scenery is required and used, and he points to the fact that his preparation costs but seventy-five cents a hundred weight. while other sulphates largely used for fireproofng are rated much higher.
 From a scientific standpoint the ex- periments of Mir. Ferrel are of great in- terest, and in a building constructed altogether Of wood and having wide ex- its and plenty of them-unbarred and not locked-undoubtedly generous soaking with his preparation might be of great benefit. But recent experiences in Chicago and elsewhere are inclining the public to the belief that some ma terial not combustible from any cause would be much better and would bring a far greater feeling of confidence than soaking with the sulphate of aluminium or with amy other sulphate or prepara- ton.
 An ordinance requiring q soaking with the sulphate might happen to be forgotten by building inspectors of the stripe now in office in Chicago. and tha liquid in which the wooden walls and stairways and seats and stage might be soaked might not be so much the real thing as something closely re- sembling 1t in appearance but not in effect. There is no reason. these mod ern days, why new theaters, churches and nlaces where the public is likely to gather should not be constructed of absolutely incombustible material-and that is the material which alore. in common with wide aisles and plenty of exits that open, the public safety de- mands and which the public will have.
 An interesting experiment Is now be- ing arranged Tn Cincinnati in which the frecroof merits Of the structural iron and the concrete .wali will be tested. and, while the verdict .n the experi- mcnt may not be final nor received as conclusive. 1t is 70 the material the public will look for safety. and not to wooden halls and buildings and stages soaked in 2 smDhate

grasp the handles of stuffed clubs with which to smite that boom.
 The Bisbee Review. for instance, speaks thus irreverently of the Hearst movement:
 According to the Phoenix Enterprise there is a Hearst boom in Phoenix. We must samit that thus far we have not felt the shock in this direction"
 And elsewhere the Review speaks thus menacingly:
 Phoenix, as usual in politics. is fix ing things to suit herself. When the convention meets. however, the true democratic counties of the territory will probably take hand"
 We fear also that the Hearst boom does not meet with the approval of the editor of The Arizona Silver Belt. who employs the following rhetorical figure to describe the democratic situation in Phoenix:
 "The Hearst boom at Phoenix. launched with Winsor, of the Enter prise. as accoucher and Tom Parish as wet nurse. appears to have been at tended with q good deal of pain to the local democracy. A Phoenix paper says that while all is apparently se- rene on the surface. when the cover is pulled off the opposition to Willie Ran dolph is really startling. and the con- test between the factions promises to he Saneuinary'

Those who looked forward with con- fidence to the break between Russia and Japan this week seem doomed to disappointment which, however, is not likely to be so keen as that which Japan must feel at not receiving the reply which has been due for days. The dispatches of this morning state that it was expected by the Russian foreign minister that the reply would have been ready for the czar to pass upon yesterday. It was understood that it was submitted to him last Thursday and the Russian minister at Tollio. while pretending to know noth- ing of it's contents was authority for the statement that it had been ap- proved.

The report has gone abroad that the chairman of the democratic territorial committee of Arizona has come out for Hearst. Or rather that report has reached Arizona. It is not a fact. Chairman Sam F. Webb has not come out at all but the indications are that he is not in sympathy with the Hearst epidemic. Arizona has become con founded in the report with Ohio whose democratic chairman, Finley. has de- clared for Hearst by the process of elimination meaning doubtless that Hearst only is left.

FINGER NAIL PHOTOGRAPHY.

Stella Beardsley. one of the Pi9er children in Babes in Toyland," on the nails of the thumb and forefnger of her right hand has had photographed the faces of two gallants. It seems that the young woman got the idea from a chorus girl friend of hers. who is now in a musical comedy in London. The girl across the water wrcte to the one on this side that fingernail photo graphy was the rage over there, and that no self-respecting churus girl could afford to go without several images of beaux on her fingers. Miss Beardsley consulted several photo- graphers, and at last found one who knew the process. She had two pie lures put on and may have more lafer, she says.

There Are Breakers Ahead.

There is said to have been a meeting of the Young Mems Democratic club in this city on Saturday night Demo- crats of all shades were invited to be present. and they were given to under stand that the principal matter to be considered was the question of com uniting the territory to William R
 Hearst for the democratic presidential nomination. The attendance, we have been informed. was not large, and the commitment was not made out. Most Of the members of the club are said to be for Hearst. There Is also a large number of democrats outside of the club who feel that the territory owes Sir. Hearst a debt of gratitude for h.s visit to Phoenix last fall and for h's expression of kindly intentions toward She territory. In and out of the club it 1s believed that majority of the demo- CFats of the county are for Hearst and that they will send a delegation from shis county to the convention if they can agree on everything else. That is q big obstacle in the way of the sue cess of MT. Hearst in thls county for the democrats Of Maricopa from the earliest times have not been famous for unanimity in convention assembled
 But it will make little difference how
 balutiful and perfect the boom oor- strtcted by the democrats of this coun- ty. The democrats of the other ccun- ties are standing around the corner splitting on their hands the better to

Timing Claims and IrrIgatIOn.

The decision of the secretary of the interior. mentioned in our dispatches this morning, that mining claims other than patented claims or those 10 which complete title has been oo- tained. located on lands withdrawn from entry in connection with the un- dartaking of irrigation works, will not he gratifying to certain persons who discovered mineral land in the vicin- ity of the Tonto Basin reservoir site about the time it was announced that the government would need all the land in that reighborhcod to keep the stored water oa.
 There had been. it is true, mining locations within the area that has been withdrawn long before it was imagined that the government would engage in reservoir building, but we do not know that titles to any of the claims were ever perfected; we rather think they were net. However promising they may have seemed to the locators they were so inaccessible that the discoverers would have hardly gone to the expense of securing patents. Recently several locations have been made In that part of the country and the locators have performed the assessment work, etc.
 There is an idea entertained by many prospectors and others that mineral land Is sacred under the law; that it belongs to whoever finds it re- gardless of the former use, owner or occupant of it. provided, of course, that it had not before been known to be mineral land. Some even hold to this doctrine to such an extent that they believe that If they should hap pen upon a gold ledge in a street of Phoenix, they might "denounce," as they say in Spanish American coun- tries. that portion of the thorough fare.
 It is stated in the dispatch that the decision of the secretary is to have the force and effect of legislative enactment.
 It will no doubt be construed. even by mining lawyers to be at variance with the laws relating to mineral lands and perhaps the question will arise as to the authority of the sec retary for the enforcement of his de- cision. That, however. will not be an entirely new thing in litigation. There is now pending in the supreme cour: of this territory the same question. The secretary had established certain rules for the regulation of the forest reserves. Those rules were alleged to be violated and the alleged violator was arrested It was a part of his defense that the department had not power to do what IL is only delegated to the legislative branch of the gov ernment to do. It was admitted that the secretary had the right to make rules for the conduct of those who go upon the reserves but it was denied that the rules were laws, the violation of which is a crime.
 The controversy, if il should arise, would be as to whether the recent de- rision of the secretary is not in con- fiict with existing laws.
