The Walking Delegate in Russia

Russia is swiftly advancing in the arts of
modern civilization. The walking delegate
has made his appearance in the ruction
And he has begun to adjust himself to the
Muscoyite conditions and to employ the
methods best suited to the tempera ment of
the Slav. This proves him TO be nro-
gressive factor in Russia, even as he is al
ways enterprising and up-to-date in the
United States. Yesterday some of the tele-
graph operators, who have recently been
organized into a compact union. BETRAYED
their reluctance to walk out on the an
pointed hour of the strike. A walking dele
gate appeared and tried gentle persuasion.
Still the operators hesitated Then the
walking delegate. prepared for such an
emergency, broke on the floor a bottle of
acid. the noXious fumes of which quickly
filled the room and drove the gasping teIeg-
raphers pell nell into the street. That
fixed things to the taste of the strike leader
and the wires hummed 10 more with the
ponderous syllables of Russian orthog-
raphy.
Remembering the exploits of the late
Sam Parks, the American observer of Rus
sian events will be inclined to wonder
whether the Muscovte walking delegate
will proceed to develop still further VIII
he work both ends against the middle" as
our phrase runs? Will he open secret ne
gotiations with Count White. or perhaps
even the car himself, for suppression or
the strike troubles for consideration? This
would be no novelty indeed even in Russia
In point Of principle. For many years one
of the favorite methods OF the secret police
has been to Join the ranks of the revolu-
uonists and to work up alarms and pots
In order to be able to expose the con-
spirators to the government and reap a rich
harvest of rewards showered upon them by

Foot Ball and Prize Fighting.

From the New York World.
The foot ball that Is played Is to the foot
ball that should be played a finish prize
fight is to legitimate boxing. Indeed. as
between the two prize fighting Is on a
higher ethical plane than collegs foot bali.
The fighters are frankly professional. They
make no pretense of amateur standing.
They fight openly for money. ami they have
to fight fairly. The fouing o! opponents
which foot ball referees tolerate would not
be allowed in a prize ring. The contest
would be stopped at once, and the decision
given to the victim of the foul. Foot ball.
IL played, must always be a rough game;
but it need not be a hom!cidal game. 1t
need not murder a score Of players In the
course of year and MAIN hundreds more.

Modern improvements.

The. pity they show for the man with the
hoe
Is likely to lessen the charm
That poets so earnestly tell us they know
Is present in life on the farm.
But there's one lucky chap on the pas
toral map
Whose mind seems entirely serene;
He has barrels of money and cider to tap
The man with the blowing machine.
Full oft you'll discern how the seeming bad
turn
OF luck which may darken the day
Is reserved for the man who refuses to
learn
And persists in the obsolete way.
But the farmer who moves with the world
and improves
With the times Is a monarch, l ween
The hoes out of date; nowadays 1t be-
hooves
Us to work with a blowing machine.

 Master Chester was kept busy for an hour receiving his little guests, who came in groups, in pairs and singly, bringing with them tokens of their friendship and goodwill. Then they proceed ed to take possession of the prem ises, where they made merry at various games, among them being that of the tailless donkey.

Bank at Benson.

Wednesday afternoon while re- maining at Benson a few hours TIE OASIS man called at the office of Mir, H. Gerwein, the leading lumber and building supplies dealer, and found the gentleman busily engaged in removing the giant maguey plant which has been SO many years conspicuous ob- ject upon his premises, the gentle man having donated the great cactus to the Territorial Industrial School, to the grounds of which institution it was transplanted, and given a conspicuous position in front of the handsome building.
 Several times Mr. Gerwein has been offered $500 for the plant but always refused the offer. No doubt he could have realized now a very handsome sum of money by its sale, but he thought best to donate 1t to the school, in which institu- ton he has always taken a great interest, having been one of the first board of trustees.
 The century plant was removed to make room for new building which is to be constructed imme- diately for use by the Bank of Benson, a new financial institution which has been recently organized and will be opened for business as soon as the building Is completed. The structure will be of modern style, and built of metal through- out, the walls, roof and ceiling to be all of that material, upona stone foundation. All the neces- sary furniture, books, stationery, etc, have been ordered and will ar rive by the time the building is ready to receive them.
 The new bank includes among its shareholders such men as George Mitchell, the mining mag nate, long associated with the Cananea copper mines. Mir. Mckay the Bisbee capitalist, L. c. Hanks, the Douglas banker, and others united with several prominent business men of Benson. It will begin business with a paid up capi- tai of $25, ,000 and will be under the most capable management. Mir. L. c. Hanks of Douglas, is pre- sident of the corporation, and Mir. u. Gerwein vice president.
