A New Years Wish.

This wish for you: that past rough
 roads unheeded You march ahead, Undaunted, with the hope of trust be-
 gotten To win iife's bread: TO wear a smile cen when tears be
 your portion With sighs unsaid; To find fair blooms from last years
 brown leaves springtng, Upon your way; To reap the worth Of deads gone py
 that left you A bit more gray, A bit more strong to live ana love Wlth
 others From day to day. In fruitful fields may Time think wise
 to give you A gentle part; With love of home and friends to
 twine about you May this year start Blue skies to cheer, and peace of God
 to guide you, Oh faithful hear!
 The Outlook.

pR EITY PATEREAL,

We govern ourselves and our subjects pretty paternally, as the records of what the government has spent for shows shows, It appears that since 1876 the
 United States has spent $27,S0O,OOO for expositions and fairs of various kinds, both at home and abroad. When the
 one hundredth anniversary of the birth of the nation was celebrated at Phil adelphia, Congress provided S2,1S3,1S4 for the affair, made up of numerous ap- propriations running through period of four or five years. That was prac. tically the beginning of national ex- positions on a large scale in this coun- try. Paris leads ak the cities in the number of fairs. In 1878 the United States contributed $190,000 to an exhibit at the French capital, and again in 1888

| IS THE TURK EY GOING?

Many who wanted a turkey for Thanksgiving found that turkeys were extinct for them on account of the price. And now one who has studied the matter rises up and says that twenty-five years from now turkeys will be actually extinct in this country. It's all on account of too much civiliza- ton, says this man. "When the Pill grims hit the Massachusetts pike the turkeys were as untamed as the Indian. They had their wings, and as the whites spread out westwardly the turkeys fol- lowed suit and hunted wider ranges. The turkey tastes best when it raises itself on the range. You do not need any statistics to prove that the ranges in this country are decreasing. The country is filling up with people. Civ ilization is the cause of that" So this destroyer of Thanksgiving delight and gastronomic pleasure clinches his argu- ment that the American national bird is being crowded to the wall and must perish from the. face of the country. and all because we are extending too much of a glad hand to the poverty stricken people of effete Europe. That is why" says he, that we are now getting more turkeys from Texas than 1 from New England and the Middle West. There is still plenty of range in Texas for the bird, and that is why the Texas turkey is better in every way than the turkey that is raised in the East"
 The buffalo is gone, and the turkey is said to be going. The lobster and the
 clam are also not as numerous and gay as they have been. What are we com- ing to?

From Harbin Amidst
 Great Enthusiasm.
The Veteran Soldier of Misfortune Was Moved to Tears at the En- thusiastic Demonstration and Hearty Farewell.
By Associated Press.

KAREN, March 2l, 3 a. m.-At the departure south of General Kuro. patkin, a crowd of thousands of civil ians and soldiers gathered at the sta tion and gave him a great ovatio2. Above the laundering of the hurrahs were heard cries of "God send you happiness "Good bye, brother, 7" Good bye, father"
 As the train started the soldiers rushed forward insurging the crowd and grssped the handrail of the gener- al's car, throwing their caps in the air and running some distance with the car. The scene made great impres- sion on General Kuropatkin, down whose face streamed tears. Removing his cap, he saluted again and again and stood bare headed on the platform as long as the train was in sight. The residents of Harbin are uneasy and many of them are departing.

CAPTURED IN
 ALBUQUERQUE Graham in Custody for
 SWindling.
The Man Who Wanted to Establish a Branch Hub at Flagstaff and WinsIoW Now in Jail.

A recent announcement appeared in various papers of the territory in re- ference to game played by a man named G. w. Gordon, in Flagstaff and Winslow in which he swindled a num- Der of people out of some money. Among his victims was A. E.. Gillard, a young druggist, formerly in the em- ploy of the Brisley company. It was given out that he was an old school mate of Gillard's. This was mis- take. Graham was in Prescott and left on the same train with Gillard and the acquaintance was formed on the trip. Graham went to Flagstaff where he represented himself as agent for the Hub clothing house of Los An geles and announced his intention of starting a branch store there.
 He attemted to prepetrate swindle there by drawing on the Hub for $50, but instead of paying the draft the bank sent it in to Los Angeles for col lection. Knowing that this would wind him up there be moved on to Winslow where Gillard was employed. He remained around the drug store in which Gillard was employed, making himself useful and when Gillard was taken sick for a day or two he volun tee1ed to look after the business. This he did and in addition appropriated some money belonging to the store and during a visit to MT. Gillard's room to see how he was getting along stole s35 and a watch out of his pockets and then left town.
 A few days after this happened a young man arrived in Prescott, but who does not care to have his name mentioned and reported to W. H. GiIlard, a brother of the Winslow vic tim that he had seen a man answering this description in every particular, in Albuquerque. Mir. Gillard wired WinsIow and the officers there wired to officers at Albuquerque aud Graham was captured on a ranch a short dis tance from that town and was returned to WinsIow last Friday and will no doubt stand trial for his misdeeds there.
 The news of his capture was received W. H. Gil,ard from his brother.

ID KUROPATK|N
 IS ASSIGNED THE
Command Of the First
 Army.
In Spite of His Reyerses Russians Still Have Confidence in His Ability as Strategist and Admira- tiOn For His Patriotism.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 9, 2:2O a. m.-The Russian army in Manchur- ia is still to have the services of Ku- ropatkin, who is considered by many, in spite of his series of reverses the best general and foremost strategist in the Russian army.
 Sinking all feeling of personal bit terness, because of his supercession, and all of his old time emnity between himself and General Linevitch and in a patriotic desire 70 be of service to his fatherland the former commander in chief of the army volunteered to remain in any capacity with the army which he had SO long commanded.
 His tender has been accepted by Emperor Nicholas and has been grate- fully received by the new army leader and the change directly reverses the old order of affairs, when Kuropatkin was the supreme commander and Line witch directed the first army. Gener- al Kuropatkin's start southward was the signal for a gr at farewell at liar bin. The retreat of the army from Tie Pass is apparently progressing un- eyentfully.

Has Been Abandoned
 at BroCktOn.
Out of Great Number Who Lost Their Lives in the Burning Shoe Factory Only Fourteen Were Identified.
By Associated Press.

BROCKTON, Mass, March 21.- Satisfied that there is no chance of re- covering additional bodies from the ruins of the Grover company's shoe factory, the search was abandoned about Il o'clock tonight by the small army of volunteers after thirty seven hours of constant toil. Although the police and Medical Examiner Paine feel that they have removed from the debris all the remains which were not reduced to ashes second search will hardly be instituted to satisfy rela- lives and friends of the victims.
 The little band of persons who have besieged the morgue since the first body was taken from the ruins reluc- tantly turned their steps homeward tonight, satisfied that all that remain ed of their missing ones have occu- pied pine boxes inscribed "unknown. !" At midnight, for the first time since yesterday Dr. Paine and his assist ants remained alone with the unident- flied. The revised list follows: Bodies recovered. 55; identified, fourteen; missing, 45; reported as escaped, 2S3. It now seems probably that but four teen bodies will be buried with their identity positively established.

Agrarian Troubles h.

Many Cases of Violence Occurring and Other Evidences of a Pend ing Revolution Are Manifest.
By Associated Press.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 21.-Re- currences and an extension of the agrarian troubles are noted and near Libau the workmen and peasants are making common cause. Caucasus is already the scene of armed resistance to the forces of the civil authority and in the region around Kie6, where the peasants are increasingly bold, there have been many cases of vio- lence.
 Labor leaders of the social revolu- tionistic persuasion are plainly plan ing to synchronize a general renewal of the strike with climax of peasant disorders and with the action of the troo os in mind have been serving mo- tice, by anonymous letters and other warnings on the guard officers here and the officials in other cities that if another fred Sunday" comes and they order the troops to fire they will be held responsible therefor and their lives will be made the forfeit.

There was some talk of making a cof- ferdam at the harbor mouth and pumping out the water but the plan has been abandoned in favor of plac- ing a cofferdam about each sunken vessel, by which means it is claimed every vessel with the possible excep- tion of the Sevastopol can be raised.

had the Kindergarten room of the public school building very beautiful ly decorated for the occasion with potted plants and rugs giving it quite homelike appearance.
 As prelude to the lecture, Mrs. u. D. Ross sang vocal solo and Mrs. George c. Ruffner, vice president of the club, in few well chosen words, introduced the speaker to the assem- bled members of the club.
 Mrs. Galpin prefaced her lecture with brief but very interesting talk on woman's clubs. "The Influence of Women and Mothers" was the sub- ject of her lecture and two Shake sperean characters, Catharine of Ara gon, and Queen of King John of Eng land. She recited portions of the plays with dramatic fervor and pas sion which was very affecting. She closed her address with discussion of whether it is better to be happy than to be good, giving the latter the de- cided preference, speaking forcibly of the goodness and excellence of Catha- rine as a wife, mother and woman.
 At the close of the lecture, on mo- tion of Mrs. B. D. Billinghurst vote of thanks was rendered to her by the club, and each woman present was given an introduction to her. She in vited all the ladies when in Los An geles, to visit the Shakespeare section of the Cummock School of Expression.
