R. l.. Long, former territorial su- perintendent of public instruction, left Phoenix on Thursday mornings Santa Fe train for New York city. From there he will take steamer for Eu- rope and spend few months. in tour ing the continent. He expects to meet ex-Governor N. O. Murphy in the old country. He says he will go to St. Petersburg, if he never gets anywhere else.-Phoenix Gazette.
 The man who was found dead near Garcia's ranch, not far from Hot Springs, was Ernest Smith. He was a miner and was employed by Robert Hugland of Phoenix and Robert Pearce of Morristown to do some work on one of their claims, which is about one mile west of Garcia's ranch. It is supposed that blast of powder going off prematurely caused his death rather than want of water as at first supposed.

THE MYSTIC MlSTLETOE.
Once n Feature of Pagan Rites, 1t
Now Belongs to Lovers.

From time immemorial the white
berried nistletoe has played Il leading
part in Yuletide festivities, though it
has not always conveyed the osculato-
ry privileges which give it its value in
the eyes of the romantic youth of to-
day. Like so many other features of
the Christmas celebration, mistletoe
has been borrowed from the pagans of
antiquity and Christianized by the
lapse of centuries. The Persians be-
fore the birth of Christ used the mis-
tletoe in their sacred rites, and in parts
of India pagan priests still incorporate
1t in their ritual. 1t figures largely in
Scandinavian mythology. Baldur, the
son of Odin, though Il demigod, was
slain by a spear of mistletoe, a proof
of its magic powers.
1t is from the Druids of old England,
however, that mistletoe has come to
us. The Druidical priests, sprung, it
is said, from the magi of the east, the
wise men who worshiped at the cradle
of the infant Saviour, held the mistle-
toe as their most sacred possession,
dIld liz 1dlllnS VI lHC DlSttJ
from the oak, the tree which the
Druids claimed God loved more than
any other, was attended with the
greatest solemnity. On the Druids' fes-
tival day a grand procession, leading
two white oxen, moved to the mystic
grove. There the oxen were fastened
to the oak by their horns, and a white
robed priest climbed into the leafess
branches and cut the punches of mis-
tletoe with a golden knife. The oxen
were then sacrificed and religious serv-
ices performed, after which the pro-
cession returned to the temple in the
forest and the mistletoe was deposited
in the Druidical
Besides taking its place in the reli-
gious o~bseryances of the Druids, the
mistletoe, which the priests gave a
name meaning "all healing" was made
into many curious decoctions by proc
esses in which times and seasons n
incantations were supposed to d to
it's mysterious powers. These medi-
cines were regarded as cures for human
ills generally, whether Of mind or body.
With the advance of civilization and
the death of superstition mistletoe has
lost it's religious character, but not its
popularity, and the forests of England
and of our own southern states are as
eagerly frequented by mistletoe gath
erers as ever were the dark woods OF
the ancient Druids.

LAWYERS and the Law.

He's fine S they make. OF course a
good deal of the time no n knows

you generally don't. It's a part of their
business not to let no one know what
they mean, FIR f law was simple no
one d ever get fooled.
1t takes another lawyer to see what
a lawyer is dom, anyhow. When a
lawyer says anything is so to me l
