The First Annual Territorial Fair to be Held at Phoenix, Arizona, Decem-
 Der 4th to 9th. l905.

The work on the buildings and grounds of the Territorial Fair is progressing rapidly and they will be in readiness for the opening.
 The stables and grand-stand are rapidly approaching completion and will compare favorably with those of any of the older states fair grounds. It is estimated that the seating ca pacity of the grand-stand will be about 5000 people.
 The two race tracks, one mile and one-half mile, are now in good condi- tion and bid fair to be among the fastest in the country. In fact, it is expected that some new records will be made during this meeting.
 The premium list has been turned over to the printer, and will be handsome book of about f;xty-five pages, which will be a credit to Ari- zona. The contract for the printing of this list has been awarded to the Phoenix Printing company.

 Great interest is being shown throughout the Territory and every body is boosting "The Fair" Keep the matter before your people and help make this, the first effort, a howling-and- -ever-to-be- remembered success.
 The passing ot the ''Good Old Sum- mer Time'' is noted thusly by the Nogales Oasis: "The roundup in the Gro Blanco country last week looked unlike a funeral procession. It was tame. Even the horses knew there was something wrong and went about their work in lack-spirit manner. The cheery "Hello, Bill! How's she going?'' was changed to Good morn ing Williom. How are you this morning?' Occasionally an outlaw cayuse would toss his head, look at the peaceful travellers and throw a great loud horse laugh. Men who for years had ridden the ranges with all the dash of centaurs and with de- liance flashing from their eyes sat as stiff and still in their saddles as mutton-chopped Britishers, and with faces more solemn. Truly, the change from the old, rough-and ready, happy-go-lucky bunch was great. 1t could have been hardly greater. There were no guns in the party. The edict had gone forth that round-ups would hereafter be re- garded as public gatherings and the laws of Arizona (malediCtiOns on the medlers that framed them, mutters, Riata Rube) forbid the carrying of weapons at public gatherings. Rangers Olds and Coffee of Nogales visited the roundup gang during the week and found the atmosphere so gloomy and oppressive that they were back in town three days before cheerful expression returned to their faces.'

The Independent reports that Sheriff Farnsworth and some friends went hunting last Sunday, in direct violation of the Sunday law. The party struck a big bunch of quail, and all hands were shooting. One of the hunters took a cross shot at a quail, and the sheriff was directly in the line of fire, and caught sixteen of the bird shot in his face. Luckily for the sheriff he was far enough from the gun so that the shot were easily stopped and he suffered no serious injury, although one of the shot came perilously near his eye.

One of the unique automobiles in this country is owned by B. F. Staun- ton of the Imperial company. It runs between Red Rock and Silver Bell. It differs from the ordinary automobile in that it is heavier and runs only on the rails, its wheels be- ing fitted with hanges for that pur- pose. Last week it met the congress sional special at Red Rock and took some Chicago mining men up to the mines. The automobile can attain almost as great speed as the ordinary touring car and makes the twenty mile from Red Rock to Silver Bell in an hour.-Citizen.

THE STIRRUP-CUP.

My short and happy day is done, 1 he long and lonely night comes on, And at my door the pale horse stands To carry me to unknown lands. His whinny shrill, his paving hoof,
 Sound dreadful as gathering storm; And must leave this shcltering roof
 And joys of life so soft and warm. Tender and warm the joys of life
 Good friends, the faithful and the true My rosy children and my wife,
 So sweet to kiss, so fair to view So sweet to kiss, so fair to view. The night comes on, the lights burn blue; And al my door the pale horse stands To bear me forth to unknown lands.

The hero of Little Brooches is son Of Solomon Van Scoy, Of New Virginia, Ia., and is now living at Let's, Ia., husky farmer.
 Laren Talbott of Sioux City, cousin, recalls the incident upon which the poem was based and tells about it as follows:
 My cousin was about four years old when he broke into fame Van Scoy was driving a piritcd team near New Virginia one day, and when he got out of the wagon for minute the team dashed away. with the boy in the wagon The horses went over ditches, fences and brush pies. Finally the wagon was overturned and the little fellow was thrown head first into a drove of sheep.

A Large Communion.

What is described as 1.-The largest
number of communicates of one church
ever gathered together for conference
in Christian history" met in ST. Louis
recently at the International Mission
AIRY convention of the Disciples of
Christ. Says Il correspondent of the
New York Sun; The delegates pres
ent numbered about 1880 and
nearly every land where the gospel
has been preached was represented
Reports showed substantial gains dur
ing the last year in all departments Of
work In the foreign field there is now
total of zoo missionaries and native
helpers, thirty mission schools, and
seventeen hospitals. The total receipts
for foreign missions for the year
amounted to $37S,403. In the entire
church, as the official statistics show
ed, there is present membership vi
1,233,9S4, net gain during the year
of about 10000; 11,162 churches in this
country, with 1851 ministers. The total
amount contributed for missions and
benevolence for the year was $1,32l,-
105 Adding to this the local work
of the various churches showed an av-
erage contribution of $6.25 per MEM
Der. This is remarkable in view of
the fact that the Christian church in
its present organization is less than

ANEW INN lGRArI0M DANGER.

Commissioner General Sargent of the
bureau of immigration, calls attention
to danger which seems to call for Il
revision Of. our immigration laws. Last
week the steamship Manchuria arriv-
ed at San Francisco from Honolulu
with 923 Japanese on board. or TINS
number fifty were suffering from con-
tagious diseases. The immigration au-
thorities cannot, it seems, prevent them
landing. IF the Manchuria had come
from abroad" says Commissioner Sar-
gent. "instaad of from Hawaii, we could
bar out the undesirable passengers"
This appears to be a very important
matter. Il. the coolies and undesirable
may enter freely from Hawaii what is
to prevent an invasion of this country
by the same classes from the Philip
pines. The steamship companies may
be depended upon to exploit an oppor-
t,,nity of carrying trade to the ut
most.
Congress should listen to Mr.. Sar-
gents suggestion. AS matters stand
our exclusion laws are too weak and
admit much that is not only undesir-
able but actually vicious in foreign i'm
migration. If we are to be overrun
with Chinese and Japanese of the low
est classes from our recent acquisitions
In the Pacific, immediate preventive
steps should be taken.

President Buchanan's Advice to :
Preacher,
[From the Church Economist

From the Church Economist
In early life the Rev. DR.. William M.
Paxton wrote and committed two SER
mons every week. During vacation
he preached in hotel at Bedford
Springs and among his auditors was
President Buchanan. At the close of
the service the president gave to the
young minister this interesting item
from his own life:
II notice that you committed that
sermon to memory. I did the same
with all my speeches when young
lawyer and found 1t was too great a
tax on my mind. Then tried another
way: thought out the speech with
out the use Of paper and pen. Every
set address since that time has
been prepared in this manner"
DIR. Paxton at once put the sugges-
ton into practice and thenceforth all
his sermons were composed in the
same way.

did not we would adopt any other that
we considered better. At one time,
early in the moderniZation of Japan,
her statesmen seriously contemplated
making Christianity the state religion
and orga nizing national church Xix .
the established church of England.
That was thirty years ago, and per-
haps something might have come of the
proposition had not the embassy of
wise men who went around the world
studying foreign affairs and customs
advised against it on the ground that
there was SO much more crime, vice and
poverty in London, Paris, Rome, Wen
ma, New York and other great Chris
tian cities than in Toxic and other
heather cities of Japan. And the con-
trast still continues in the most strik-
inss manner.

THE BIGGEST DAM IN the WORLD.

The secretary of the interior let
contracts only a few days ago for the
erection on Salt River Arizona. of the
largest dam for irrigation purposes
ever constructed. The dam will be 30
feet high, 21O feet long, 165 feet thick
at the base and 16 feet wide on top
creating a lake twenty-five miles long
and nearly two miles wide. AS pre-
liminary. forty-three miles of road
have been built, some of which was
cut thru solid rock. Hydraulic gates,
the largest ever built, will control the
water. with capacity of discharging
10000 cubic feet of water a second, and
supplying canals fifty miles distant. A
500 foot tunnel has been driven thru
the side of the canyon to divert the
water while the dam is under way.
The completion of the big dam is ex-
pected by 1907. Excess water from the
reservoir will be conveyed to centrifu-
gal pumps seventy miles distant to
furnish water to higher levers 1or the
irrigation of $4,000 additional acres.
Part of the water power is now used
to run cement mill, the materials for
which are close at hand. This work
will go forward day and night, the
water power furnishing 4,400 horse
power to generate electricity. AS much
of the land is in the hands of private
owners, they have agreed to convey
$1,000 acres to the government to re-
Ray it for expenditures. The pumping
scheme is for government land, and
water is expected there within three
years Already settlers are fling
claims for eighty acres each, the max
imum allowed one individual.

Heather VS.. Christian.

lCurt1S IN ReCOrQ-Herdld.I
|, The records of~the police department
in Japan show a striking contrast to
those Of American and European cit
les. Last year out of a total of 49,
239 convictions in the criminal courts,
only 1898 were for what are called
"crimes''-that is, penal offenses -
| while 140,128 were for what we would
call misdemeanors, and what the Jap
anese term "offenses against proper
ty," including petit larceny, grand lar
ceny, burglary obtaining money under
false pretenses, forgery and embezzle-
ment. The offenses against the public
peace, what we would call disorderly
conduct, were comparatively few, fur
nishing a little more than 10 per cent
of the entire number Of cases in the
criminal court. If you will compare
this with the statistics of the courts of
New York, Chicago and Philadelphia
and other cities, you will see that the
Japanese are remarkably well-behav-
ed people, for only 1888 persons out
of total population of over 45,OO0,O0O
were convicted of disturbing the public
peace. This is, of course, accounted
for by the temperate habits of the peo-
pie. There is comparatively little
drunkenness in Japan. 1t was almost
unknown-mirabile dictu!-before the
foreigners came to introduce Christian
ity and modern civilization, but it is
increasing year by year, until now
temperance societies, which were un-
known and unnecessary, are being or
ganized in Japan.
That is something to think about. Is
Christianity a failure in its influence
over the personal habits of mankind?
Why is it that the heather behaves so
much better than those who have the
| light of the gospel? We consider our
own religion the best, of course. If we
