Satisfactory Progress.

The most eXacting friend of Arizona cannot reasonably find fault with the progress our affairs are making at Washington. In the first place it is assured that the joint statehood bill will go over to that indefinite period after the holidays" The joint state hood movement is stronger now than it will ever be again. The misrepre- sentations which have given it strength will be dissipated "after the holidays" and then the reaction will set in.
 Senator Foraker, according to Re- publican special this morning, has lost none of his interest in the territories but nas met Beveridge midway with an amendment providing for separate statehood for Arizona and New Mex ico. It is of course improbable that the joint statehood bill, so amended will pass the senate, and if it should pass both houses it is improbable, in the light of recent events, that it would receive the presidential sanction. It WILL De enOuSH luOuSH II we COIIle Just as near securing separate statehood as we shall come to securing joint state hood. For the present the people of the territories will be willing for the two propositions to travel along hand in hand, or rather, the sep arate statehood proposition on the back of the joint statehood proposition weighing it down and fatiguing it to the point of exhaustion, so that they both fall a little short of actuality.
 The appointment of MT Tawney to the important post of chairman of the house committee on appropriations is another proof that Arizonans have friends in high places and is also proof of the friendship of the speaker for the territory's chief champion in the house

Edward Atkinson.

In the death of Edward Atkinson yesterday, there was removed a man who recognized his mission to hu- manity. He performed his self-ap- pointed duties we'll and came to be regarded as an authority on many questions which affect a majority of the people. His usefulness in his lat ter years was greatly diminished by his unfortunate views on the insular question, which he looked at from an abstract standpoint. He was the rec ognized leader of the New England coterie of the anti-imperialists who refused to regard the Philippines as an unpleasant trust placed upon this coun- try in the course of war and declined to believe in the honesty of the Me Kinley policy.
 This particular class of anti-imper- ialists sought to prove the correctness of their position by throwing obstacles in the way of the government; by en- couraging assertions from the army and by melting sedition in the Philip phleSs ne lIeHuClll anu PSSuli1i terances of MT. Atkinson on imperial ism were generally regarded as mark ing the decadence of those qualities which had made him useful for forty years.
 He had written extensively on a wide variety of topics, such as banking, competition, railroading, cotton manu- facture, fire prevention, the tariff and the money question. He was the au thor also of "Tne Distribution of Prop erty," industrial Progress of the Nation" "The Margin of Profit" "Tax- ation and Work" 'The Science of Nu- trition,' "The Prevention of Loss By Fire" etc. His writings for the most part interested only those with a liking for politico-economical study, though now and then he brought himself to the masses by articles on popular and current subjects. Some years ago he departed from abstract theorizing by the invention of an improved cooking stove called the Aladdin oven," which, however, did not meet a popular de- mand. It may be said of Mir. Atkin- son that he was one of the many men who have improved the world by hay ing lived in it.

cause nearly two-thirds of the plane
overhangs the end of the board requir-
ing pressure on the forward end TO bal

be taken to plane with the grain of the
wood and not against the ends of the
fibers as they lie in the surface of the
board
If the fibers tear out and the board
becomes rough. reverse the ends of the
board so as TO cut the shavings in the
opposite direction, and note the diff
ference in the effect on the planed
surface. Experience will soon enable
the workman to see, without trying,
from which end the piece must be
planed TO insure a smooth surface.

screw.
The cap iron will. in this position,

necessary All whetting and grinding
must be done on the beveled side only,

last but mot of least Importance, all
plane irons must be ground and sharp
ened slightly rounding to about the
thickness of a thin shaving. This
rounding of the cutting edge is not
simply a rounding off Of the two cor
ners, as is sometimes taught, but
should be the true arc of a circle
throughout the entire width of the cut
ting edge.
Rounding the edge thus, as will be
seen. prevents the corners of the cut
ter from growing out the surface
which is being plared and will also
assist greatly in working the edges of
the piece to right angles, or square
with the face side
To work down the high corner of an
edge, when not square with the face
side, it is not necessary to tilt the
plane up on this high angle to the
edge of the board, Lut while holding
the plane firm and fat on the surface

its edges, and the surface of the edge

WAS HER CHARITY TREE.
Southern lady's, Beautiful Way Of
Helping Good Cause.


THE oldest charity ever saw in a
small way" said the Colonel, was In
the quiet university town of Athens,
Ca, last summer. | was walking with
a friend through the principal street,
when We passed a house where a nice
looking white-haired woman was sit
ting on the porch. Close to the front
gate was a large cumquot, or Japan
csc orange tree, which was laden with
ripe, delicious fruit. My companion
expressed a desire for some, and |
approached the woman on the stoop,
offering TO pay for what she would
permit us to take.
You may pluck as many as you
please, sir she said. and If you care
TO give me something | shall be pleas
ed. All the fruit that grows on that
tree goes TO charity
II gathered a pocketful of cumquots
and gave fifty cents, which was re.
ceived most gratefully. | learned that
the woman was the widow of a Con-
federate officer, who had nothing but
her homestead and who took in en-
broidery to live. The proceeds from
that cumquot tree. which amounted
to $50 some years, was impartially
divided among local charities in
which she was interested Anybody
in Athens would as soon have stolen
flowers from the graves in the Gene
terry as steal fruit from that charity
tree"

and crosscut saw.
Bow Saw.
A more important saw than the COM
pass saw for cutting curves of every
description is the small bow saw a.
Illustrated in Fig. 90. The blades are
interchangeable, and should be 10
inches long, and the width should be
3-16, "a or % inch, as required for diff
ferent curves. The handle turns in the
frame so as to present the cutting edge
of the saw in any direction required by
the curves being sawed. Do not hold
the saw while using by gripping the
frame of the saw in one hand and the
handle in the other, but grip the saw
handle only, next to the operator, with
both hands, one hand over the other,
steadylng the frame with the tips Of
the fingers only, while holding on TO

To saw an inside curve or opening,
slacken the straining rod, or the twist
ed cord (as the case may be-, either
being used TO strain the saw, on the
back of the frame, and remove one of
the pins which hold the saw blade in

blade. This free end is thrust through
a hole, previously bored, in the part
of the wood 10 be sawed out. The pin
is replaced through the frame and the
end Of the blade, the cord is frightened
and the saving proceeds the same as
on an outside curve. When the cut is
finished the saw is removed from the
opening in the same way.
This bow saw is indispensable in the
workroom, there being no other way
by which curves can be sawed by hand.
The blades are inexpensive, but those
which are very thin and having al
least II points to the inch should be
selected.
Foot Power Saw.
For all who can afford the cost we
would recommend a foot power scroll
saw, like or similar 10 that shown in
Fig. q. Such a saving machine can
be used not only for cutting curves,
but also for saving out stock of any
kind, straight or curved, up to three
inches in thickness.
Planes.
Among the different tools of the
woodworker none fills a more impor-
tant place than the plane The iron
planes. one of which is illustrated in
Fig. Is, are greatly to be preferred 10
the old-style wooden plane of former
days. These iron planes can be
bought in many sizes and at very mod
crate prices. They all work on the
