Mines Closing for Lack of Water.

All the quartz mills north of Jack

of water famine. The Zeila mill is
still running. Unless rain comes
within few days everything depen-

halt. Even water for domestic use is
liable to be shut off. Such condl-

the water system was Inaugurated.

An Impromptu Address by the Sem
ator That Once swayed
Missouri Jury.

In a suit for damages claimed for the
killing of dog the late Senator Vest
many years ago delivered striking
address on behalf Of the plaintiff be-
fore a Missouri jury. The effect of the
speech was a verdict OF $500 In favor Of
the plaintiff. The speech ran as fol.
lows:
Gentlemen of the Jury; The best
friend a man has may turn against
him and become his enemy. His son
or daughter that he has reared with
loving care may prove ungratefui.
Those who are nearest and dearest 10
us. those whom we trust with our good
name and with our happiness may be-
come traitors to their faith. The mem.
DRY that a man has he may lose; It
dies away from him, perhaps, when he
needs It most. A mans reputation may
be sacrificed In a moment of ill-coE-
sideTed action. The people who are
prone to fall on their knees to do us
honor when success is with us may he
the first to throw the stone of malice
when failure settles It's cloud upon our
heads.
1.-THE one absolutely unselhsh friend
that man has in this selfish world, the
one that never deserts him. the one
that never proves ungrateful or
treaeherous is his dog. A mans dog
stands by him in prosperity. in health
and in sickness. He will sleep on the
colo ground where wlntry winds blow
and the snow drives fiercely, If only he
may be near his masters side. He will
kiss the hand that has no food to
offer; he will lick the wounds and
sores that come in encounter with the
roughness of the world. He guards the
sleep OF his pauper master as II he
wero a prince. When all other friends
depart he remains. When riches take
wings and reputation falls to pieces he
is as constant in his love as the sun in
It's journeys through the heavens.
Of fortune drives the master forth
an oltcast in the world, friendless and
homeless, the faithful dog asks no big
ger privilege than that Of accompany
ing him to guard against danger, tn
fight against his enemies. And when
the last scene Of all comes and death
takes the master in its embrace and
his body is laid away in the COLI
ground, no matter II all other friends
pursue their way there by the grave
side will the noble dog be found, his
head between his paws, his eyes sad
but open in alert watchfulness, faith
full and true even in death"

Hungary Is the oldest constitutional
government on the European CONT
nent. In Austria the constitution Is
the gift of the emperor. Hungary has
for centuries been liberal, Austria con-
sentative. Hungary has led Europe in
social and religious freedom Austria
Is conservative--reactionary."
Thus we have liberal nation in GER
tain subsection to a very conservative
one, the latter endeavoring to impress
upon the former that which spells to
her people retrogression. The Hun
garians assert that whatever of con-
stitutional rights Austrians enjoy to-
day have come to them through the eff
forts of Hungary, not from within. II
has long been understood that Franz
Joseph's personal popularity has been
the slender bond holding the two coun-
tries; and all Europe trembles now
that the emperor, older and less diplo-
matte, is forgetting tact and federation
in his dealings with the kingdom
whose crown he wears; the vast ma
1ority of the Hungarian people have
Joined the independent party. A real
concession must be made by the en-
peror or he will be compelled to gov
ern the kingdom by military force.
The situation speedily would result in
armed resistance and then nothing
could avert the cataclysm which Eu-
rope has been dreading as the greatest
of calamities during the last 30 years. "
HungaTians and Austrians are an es-
sentially different people, with oppos-
ing ideals. The Hungarlans have a
passionate love for freedom, and when

cials we're recalled, but the attempt
influence the country at large; more
intense patriotism was inspired; Hun
gary urged with unabating zeal its full
rights upon Franz Joseph. The climax
was reached when the demand was
made that the Hungarian soldiers re-
ceive commands in their own language
in their own country, and that within
Hungarian boundaries the flags and
emblems of Hungary be used. Austria,
with artful diplomacy, made conces-
sion after concession, but on two
points would not yield-the flag and
the language.
1t was in 1887 that Hungary, much
harassed and weakened by savage Of
toman raids, entered into alliance with
Austria. In the course Of time it be-
came the popular belief the one was q
subject nation, but 1t is incorrect to
look upon Hungary as a turbulent
province" of the Austrian empire,
Count Apponyi, in an address delivered
at the arts and science congress held
at st. Louis, says: 1.-THE truth is the
very opposite of this; the primal fact
is an independent kingdom Of Hun
gary, which has allied itself for certain
purposes and under certain conditions
to the equally independent empire Of
Austria, by an act of sovereign free
will, without ever having abdicated the
smallest particle of its sovereignty as
an independent nation, though it has
consented to exercise q small part of
its governmental functions through
executive organs common with Aus
tria." Hungary has it's own parliament
and has no representative In the Aus
trian parliament. Territorially Hun
gary is larger than the Austrian en-
pire, though her population is some
what smaller, about 100000, as COM
pared with about 26.OOO,OOO. The two
usually appear Jointly in interna-
tional AFFAIRS, but Hungary has ever
held herself an Independent nation.
Count Apponyi, chamberlain to the
king, and not elassed with the radical
Independents, year ago bore witness
that "Hungary's strong insistence on
her national independence does not,
In the least, imply will or a wish to
break away from Austria. We mean to
be true TO the reigning dynasty-no
nation within its dominion's absolutely
more reliable IN that respect; we mean
Loyalty to fulfil our compact Of mutual
defense with Austria; in a word, what

All we want is that equal faith should

October is generally observed by
them as a day Of mourning)
Though the armed resistance was
put down, the Hungarians were not
conquered; were able TO prevent the
coronation of Franz Joseph as king of
Hungary, they would not adopt laws
dictated by him This state Of affairs
continued until 1867, when a settle
ment was brought about by the great
Hungarian statesman, Francis Deak.
A summary of this statement is
given in a very interesting article in
the Chicago Record-Herald: Austria
and Hungary are bound into a dual
monarchy by the famous ausgleich, or
compromise, of 1867 Austria and Hun
gary are granted the right OF control
over their respective governmental
functions. 1t provides for those
branches of administration which con.

mon departments of ministry-foreign
affairs, finance and war. The expenses

intervals was arranged for. IL was
agreed that the monarch was to be
! called emperor of Austria and king of
Hungary, and the monarchy was to be
called the AustrO-H Hungarian empire"
In the conference alluded to some time
back wherein Francis Kossuth figured
with Franz Joseph. no agreement was
arrived at. Another conference was
called later, and the coalition leaders
journeyed TO Vienna. How were they
received? Franz Joseph spoke to the
Hungarians in German, contrary to his
usual courteous custom, and accounted
an intentional grieVous insult; he did
not offer to shake hands, another af.
front to the HungaFians.

They attended the opera house last
night, and e.had ~~purchaseds reserved

awkward cap, took the coupons of the
gentlemen, and escorted them to two
comfortable seats. Just as the play
began, another usher, also with a cap
on his head, told the gentlemen they
had been seated wrong, and hustled
them to seats in the middle aisle.
Feeling themselves safe, and especial

laughing situations, their dreams yer

They looked exasperated," said a
lady who occupied a seat in front of
them, to a Citizen representative, but
they curbed their tempers, and with
hats in hands, the whole house rubber

CANNON ARE GIVEN
TO PIONEER SOCIETY
OF Ell PASo-UNEARTHED IN OLD
ALBUQUERQUE A FEW YEARS
AGO.

A few years ago, under the guidance
of Mayor Teel, of FL Paso, and Major
H. r. Whiting, the latter, and several
others of this town being present and
assisted. half a dozen and more con-
federate cannon were unearthed in a
vacant lot or corral in the rear of the
Catholic church, old town.
These cannon were distributed to
various Grand Army posts, and two OF
them were shipped to Major Teel, OF
Ell Paso. who gave them to the Nc
Gintv club of that city. These two
historic cannon have just been added
to the treasures of the Pioneers asso-
citation Of that city, on condition that
the cannon never be permitted 10
leave the possession of the society or
to leave that city, save temporarily
for exhibition purposes.
The cannon were made in the arse
nal at Springfield, Mass, in 1886, ana
saw their first service on the interna-
tional border during the Mexican war.
In the civil var the cannon were
used under the command of Major
Teel, when General Candy invaded
New Mexico, and when the confeder-
ates were driven post haste from this
section Of the territory, in order to
make their flight much easier, they
were forced to bury these civil war
relics in a vacant lot or corral in the
e a of the Catholic church in old
town.
