Three Great ConversationaIists.

The three greatest conversational
lists with whom it has been my good
fortune to come into touch were MAJ.
zini, Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes and
Bismark
OF these, Dr. Holmes was the most
spirited in the bel esprit sense;
Bismarck the most imposing and al
the same time the most entertaining
in point Of wit, sarcasm, anecdote and
narrative of historical interest
brought out with rushing vivacity and
with lightning-like illumination Of
conditions, facts and men.
In Mazzini words there breathed
such warmth and depth of convic.
ton, such enthusiasm of faith in the
sacredness of the principles pro-
fessed and of the aims pursued by
him, that it was difficult to resist such
a power of ,fascination.-Car Schurz,
In McClure's Magazine.

Several youngsters of us, wild with

from college. Such trifie as consult

some rough experiences in camp, there
was skirmish in which several were
wounded. These and others of us, sick
from exposure, were deposited in an

Medical supplies were few, there
was only one doctor, and some officers
wives, left at the place, did what they
could in nursing. The dangerously
wounded got the attention, the rest of
us Jared anyhow. The doctor had

The best breakfast food is "EGG-O-

EGG-O-SEE is deeply in debt to
the thousands of wives and mothers

Merit and common sense are things

EGG-O-SEE is cheap. A 10-cent pack

Grocers must keep it if they want

The fact that no preparation, no

Proving His Stories.

De Rougemont, the adventurer who
some years ago deceived the Royal
Geographical society and the public
In London by Munchausen tales of
his extraordinary experiences among
the natives of Australia, until the
Daily Chronicle exposed him. has
turned up again. One of his early
yarns was that, when shipwrecked on
one occasion, he saved himself by be-
striding a great turtle which carried
him to the shore. Even this was
swallowed until the final expose. But
now De Rougemont has actually TAX
en- such ride in the tank of Lon
don playhouse. 1t is said that he
had never seen the tortoise, or turtle.
until he was introduced to it in the
water. After making some passes. he
successfully crossed the tank on it's
back, necessarily calling out: "Jah.
tallah!' word which we cannot
translate owing to the absence of our
turtle and tortoise dictionary. De
Rougemont now claims that he has
proved the truth of his original story
and says that he will take a trim
from Margate towards France on tur-
tle-back to silence all doubters.

 The last carload of machinery for the Coleman ice plant at Kelvin has arrived. It is strictly modern and should do the freezing" act to per lection. The building in which the plant will be housed is nearing con pletion and Mir. Coleman expects to commence ice making next month.
 The Superior company has another carload of their rich copper ore deliv- cred on the platform of their ware house at the Florence depot. The rainy weather has made ore hauling difficult and has also delayed the haul ing of the new Rand compressor from the depot to the mine.
 TilS lflttfS WeSltfilslu anu MCDti- mott of tine Ray company are making active preparations for the operation of the old Ray mine. Fifteen men are now being worked, and 100 will prob ably be employed when full operations are commenced.
 The Arizona smelting company has been requested to put in sampler at Kelvin and it is pretty certain they will do so, an official of the company hay ing virtually given assurance that such action would be taken.
 Manager Seiboth, of the Superior, was here Wednesday attending to the forwarding of freight.

 Last week many taxpayers were staggered by the size of bills against the county created by the justice court of Morenci, says the Bulletin. Some thing like $l,900 was the amount it cost the county to maintain the justice court in that precinct for the months of January, February and March. AL though the claims were allowed in full there seems to be no doubt that the officers had availed themselves of the o1pC r.unity afforded by the present fee system to work their limit, with view single to the fee of the officer rather than to the peace of the community.
 The members of the old Stafford coun- cil held meeting last Thursday even- ing to attend to unfinished business, before retiring in favor of the incom- ing board. The new members were present and after being sworn into office by Justice Fonda, the new coun- cil held their first meeting, Geo. A. Olney was elected mayor.

which you have so willingly given TO
this work. All but four counties are
represented here today and l am sure
that at our next annual meeting none
will be missing. The work of this in
stitute is arduous and OF manifold ma
ture. The election OF members on your
board is Of great Importance, but this
Is not the only and allabsorbing duty
devolving upon you. Your institute
is a missionary institution; you have
come here to consult with one another
about the great work before you to
grasp new ideas, listen TO experiences
and the ways OF others; you have
come to drink Of the great thoughts
Of men who have made success and
a life study IN their different lines OF
agriculture. The secretary of your
board has been fortunate in securing
men of national reputation to deliver
lectures on important subjects. AS
you win return to your
homes asd pHt into practice that which
you have seen and heard, that others
may fall into line. If you fail to do
that, your coming here has been lost
time. ,
Already some of the older settlers
have drifted into the deep rut OF one
crop system, selling the fertility of
their farms year by year, robbing the
soil and cheating their children of an
heirloom that rlghIally belongs to
them BY your example and effort
you must Iift them gently out of the
mire and place them on firmer ground
Of a diversified system. Our climate
and soil are especially adapted to the
greatest number % different crops.
The resources of our territory are
not more than onethird developed,
