The Mania for Auto Speed.

The popular comparison, quick as chain lightning" will probably not be used by future generations. These will say instead, quick as an auto" for, I judging from some recent tests, the latter bids fair to Outlightning the lightning in the matter of speed To- day the worlds record is q mile in thirty-two and four-fifths seconds. The hope of the motor enthusiasts just now is to make two miles in one minute There is no good reason why this should not be accomplished. "All that is necessary is a slight increase of horsepower" writes one of the enthu- siasts, "to be attained by greater cyl finder dimensions, of higher revolu tionary speed in the engine. and these are quite within the sight and grasp of those who are now building high powered machines"
 Just what will be gained by making the record. however, it would be diiii- cult to say The public will never con- sent to a chained lightning method of transportation on the highways and byways of cities and villages, and asI a public exhibition, such a speed test would have obvious disadvantages. A go as you please race is far more eX- citing than one of the now you see it and now you don't see it variety. Since it would be impossible for the specta- tor to keep his eye on the auto, he would soon lose interest in this par ticular method of shortening distances. Even now it is strongly suspected that people congregate to view an auto race more for the reason that some grewsome occurrence is apt to be one of it's main features than because it gives them pleasure to see motor cars flash past.
 But of course 1t will be a proud day for the chauffeur. whether professional of amateur who attains this coveted two miles minute record. That is if he survives. He will have beaten a few other enthusiasts and he will have enjoyed a new experience TO ride fast at all gives the average indi- vidual a thrill, and doubtless the faster one rides the more thrills one expe
 riences. But to the man endowed with ordinary common sense the effort put forth by motor maniacs to lower the present record will seem like a great waste of money and nervous energy. If the same money, time and energy were expended on an effort to make life in the business streets of large cities comparatively safe, the public would not withhold it's appreciation. But it is difficult to arouse any enthu- siasm for a project that menaces in- stead of safeguarding human life.

There are thirteen counties in Ari- zona, and under the organic act there can be but twelve members of the ter ritorial council. This has necessitat- ed joining two counties in one coun- cil district, and at present Pima and Santa Cruz counties compri -v the joint district. It is rather remarkable that the delegation from the great county of Pima does not insist upon joining two lightweight counties for repre- sentation in the council, and thus give Pima a councilman of her own.

of gloom hang over the island. It would have exile to this forsakan spot mean the crossing of a yawning gulf into a world from which no word can return. There a false passport is not worth the trouble of writing it. Pass port or no passport, it makes no diff ference
 A few foreigners have been able to spend a short time on the island in re- cent years It has usually been diff ficult to secure pictures of the life there.
 Only those who are sentenced to penal servitude for life because of some great crime, personal or political, are sent to SaghaEen. The prisons are not great stone dungeons, such as those to which the American is accus- toned They resemble barracks, or great wooden warehouses. The stock ades around the portion devoted to the incarceration of the most violent of the criminals if constructed around an or chard would only add to the fun of
 
 boy. Leaving the prison. however, is like jumping from the frying pan into the fire. so the temptation to do so Is not great The main prison is divided into three parts. One is for the priv ileged convicts The workshops and cells for the best behaved are here. The good conduct prisoners, who are permitted to go outside in the day to labor, occupy the middle part. The northern quadrangle is surrounded by a strong stockade and overlooked by a watch tower. There are kept the most desperate criminals, who wear irons weighing fourteen pounds. All the prisoners are kept there through the first year of their incarceration.
 As capital punishment is not part of Russia's criminal code, many of the prisoners are murderers who have been sent there to remain for life. All the servants of the officers are criminals
 A visitor to the place says: "It is uncomfortable to know that the sur Iy faced woman who enters your room in the morning with a light breakfast is a murderess. It does not add to your comfort to learn, when part of your beard has been removed, that the barber is also a murderer. You are glad to have q revolver under your pillow when you go to bed. You read fly obey the injunction not to leave the house after the six o'clock curfew has been rung."
 Women are privileged inhabitants on the island They are relatively so few that they are at a premium. When Q male convict has earned the right to live outside the prison walls in a small house of his own. he often invites one of the women to live with him. She may be a murderess, but that makes no difference. She may have murdered
 two men who occupied the same re- Iation to her that he does. This fact, | apparently, is no deterrent. A lnout- | ing and solitary confinement are the | only two punishments which can be inflicted. The women are so few that l they are not in much danger of being | knOuted

The Wave of Religious RevivaIs.

The extraordinary religious revival in Wales which began some three or four months ago has spread with the rapidity of a connagration until today it has penetrated to the remotest parts of that portion of the British empire It maintains it's original fervor and interest, reminding one of the days of the Wesleys and Whiteleld. and is at tracting deep interest on both sides of the Atlantic The movement centerS around one Evan Roberts. a young Welshman, and the manner of it's be- ginning and remarkable spread is vast ly beyond human possibility of expia- nation. MT. Roberts. it appears, was studying for the ministry when he was stricken blind something like year ago; the miraculous restoration of his sight appealed to him so irresistibly that he at once set forth to make known the goodness of God to his fel- lows.
 He went into the Rhondda valley and preached from chapel to chapel, throngs of people crowding to hear
  young Roberts was preaching the scene of mighty religious upheavals. but away off in remote parts of the cOun- try, where the name of Roberts had never been heard, revivals sprang up and crowded the chapels with hun dreds of people anxious to learn the way of salvation. The local ministers, after Roberts has stirred up the peo- pie, keep the revival fires burning un- til Wales now resembles one vast house of worship.
 Politics are for the time forgotten, football games are abandoned for the prayer meetings, students in the Ban gor university have laid aside their studies and several collieries have been compelled to shut down because the workmen were attending chapel and had no time to dig coal.
 And this great religious movement seems to have crossed over into Eng land, where the American evangeIists, R. A. Torrey and C.. M. Alexander are carrying on a monster meeting in Hyde Park, the aristocratic residential section of London, tens of thousands of people daily attending their services The efforts of the two named gentle men will be mainly directed towards the rich and aristocratic of England's capital During the time they are holding their meetings in Hyde Park they will make a house to house can vass or visitation of the palatial resi- dences of Mayfair with a view of in- teresting the people of that section in something besides the pleasures of so- ciaI life.
 This side of the Atlantic also seems to be feeling the ground swell of the great religious awakening on the other side of the Atlantic. Denver has just witnessed one of the most effectua religious campaigns in the history o1 that city under the leadership,of Evan geiist J. Wilbur Chapman, and Los An gelcs has been, moved as never before by wondrous revival. It has beer predicted that during the next two years the world will witness a tida wave of religious fervor which VII possibly exceed that of the years ot 1S57-59

Tommy Ryan, who is champion of

some enterprislng but unscrupulous
correspondent at Wedding Bells, Mich.
At his urgent request we hasten to
deny that he said anything like this.
Il have come in for some irlSsome no.
toriety through my, alleged tentative
challenge to Mr. Hart, the present
heavyweight champion OF the world. I
am quite content to let Mr.. Hart re-
main in peaceful possession OF his
laurels." What Mr.. Ryan did say was
this: What is them newspaper guys
alway Jumpin' on me for? I amt got
no idea of fighting Hart or nobody
else. see? 1 am out Of the fightin
game for good. There amt nothin' in

to say about him I just want them

alone"
We hope this viii set Mr.. Ryan right

Another battle for the heavyweight
championship is scheduled next month
at San Francisco between a certain
Jim Mccormick and Gus Rubin, the
Akron giant. Rubin is said to base
his claim to the title in that he has
been beaten "only" by Jeffries, Fitz-
simmons, sharkey, Mccoy and a few
other top notchers. The only visible
recommendation that Mccormick seems
to possess is the historic fact that his
brother was once sparring partner to
Jawn L. Sullivan. If Gus hasn't gone
back considerably he should lick the
Texan in Jig time.
