Story That Was Never Read.

A pitiful story is told of Philif
Bourke Marston, the blind English
writer. One day a particularly good
idea came to him and he sat down TO
his typewriter with enthusiasm. He
wrote rapidly for hours and had near
" finished the story when friend
came in. Read that" said Marston
proudly, and tell me what you think
of It." The friend stared at the happy
author and then at the blank sheets
of paper in his hand before he was
able to understand the little tragedy
The ribbon had been taken from tho
typewriter and Marston's toll was fol-
nothing. He never had the heart I'd
write that story again.

Superintendent T. A. Farrand re
CONDUCTED BY j. c. GOULD.

Superintendent 7. A. Farrand re-
ceived US most cordially and conduct
ed us through the grounds of 10 acres
set with hundreds of different varie-
ties of trees, vines, bushes and plants
for the purpose Of testing the relative
and practical value of each kind and
variety of fruit. One of the objects
of this work is 10 protect the public
against inferior sorts or old discarded
varieties under a new name and man
ufactured testimonials. Any trees,
vines or other fruit bearing plants
must, after having run the gauntlet
of this station, have real merits as a
whole to receive the approval of the
superintendent.
Another important feature of the
stations work is 10 test the different
fungicides and insecticides, 10 note
the effects on the fruits and foliage
and many other things so necessary
to successful fruit culture.
To fully appreciate, il Is necessary
TO visit the station and observe for
yourself, while you listen TO the his
tory of each individual case SO freely
given. knowledge is capital and is
no less so in horticulture than III any
other pursuit.
Our state is ready and anxious TO
aid us in scientific knowledge and its
practical applications. We have but
to take as our text, Give and re-
ceive," join horticultural organiza-
ton if there be one in our section, if
not organize one, give of our knowl-
edge and experience and absorb as
is too short and progress too rapid to
expect to keep pace with the world by
shutting ones self within his imme-
date surroundings.

OLD PRAYER A GOOD ONE.
Petition for Landlords Offered in Eng
land MANY Years AGO.


In prayer book of the time of King
Edward VI. Of England, appears the
following prayer for landlords: The
earth is thine, o Lord, and all that is
contained therein Notwithstanding
thou hast given possession of it TO
the children of men, to pass over the
time of their short pilgrimage in this
vale of misery. We heartily pray thee
to send thy Holy Spirit into the hearts
Of those that possess the grounds,
pastures and dwelling places of the
earth, that they, remembering them
selves TO be thy tenants, may not
rack nor stretch out the rents of their
houses and lands nor yet take unrea-
sonable fines and incomes after the
manner Of covetous worldlings; but
so let them out 10 others that the in
habitants thereof may both be able
10 pay the rents and also honestly TO
live and nourish their families and
relieve the poor Give them grace
also to consider that they are but
strangers and pilgrims in this world"

The Music That Carries.

I'VE toiled with the men the world has
blessed,
And I've toiled with the men who
failed;
I've toiled with the men who strove with
zest,
And I've toiled with the men who

And this is the tale my soul would tell,
AS IL drifts Ger the harbor bar; :.
The sounds Of a sigh don't carry well,
But the lit Of laugh rings far.
The men who were near the grnmbler's
side.
oh. they heard not a word he said:
The sound OF a song rang far and wide,
And they hearkened 20 that instead.
It's tones were sweet as the tales they

The sounds Of a-sigh don't cary we'll,
But the Tilt of a laugh rings far.

Select a nice, kind, amiable, indus.
trious and generous man, and prepare
him for the ordeal Of making him go
through a long engagement, which eff
fectually renders him easy TO handle.
Gently detach him from all old friends
and acquaintance and remove any
bad habits he might have. To pre-
serve, deprive him of his latchkey and
throw a handful of mother-in-law in
the house. Shred him of all OF his
finer feelings by nagging and pound
them into pulp by complaints. When
he has simmered down put as much

tenderness, a pound of forbearance and

POSTPONED TILL JANUARY.
Lady Minstrels Will Take More Time to
 Prepare for Entertainment.

The Nogales Lady Minstrel en- tertainment, advertised for next Tuesday night, December l9, has been postponed till January. the lime for perfeeting themselves in their parts being found to be too short. One of the causes was that music, especially selected for the occasion, did not arri till this week and other little articles neces- sary in the preparations were not at hand as soon as expected.
 Rather than try to crowd the rehearsals and thereby take chances on giving an imperfect exhibition, Mir. J B. Bristol, director of the minstrels, decided to cancel the date made and take time to perfect all details before the raising of the curtain.
 He has not vet decided upon the date, but 1t will probably be the first or second week in January.

Friends Identify Remains of California Capitalist Who Disappeared

The body of Luther H. Jewell has been found and identified, Alter more than seven months 1t has been finally learned that the mining man was murdered and the body buried near Llano. Sonora.

They were brought into Llano Monday, and were identified by Conductor M. E. Hopwood of the Sonora railway. and other friends of the deceased
 The ghastly discovery made bv MT. Glore solves the mystery of the disappearance of Jewell, but how and by whom he was murder ed, remains as much a mystery as ever.

The shaft was not more than ten feet deep, and was connected by d drift with another similar shaft a little distance away. It is thought that Jewell had gone down into one of the shafts to prospect 1t, and as he came up out of the hole, and was lifting himself to the suface with his head bent forward, the murder CT, probably one of the men who had gone there with him struck him in the back of the head with the pick. crushing in his skun
