Arizona republican., 1906-10-07

If there is one place in the county which ought to be occupied only by men of sound Judgment and good busi- ness qualifications, it is the board of supervisors. The republican party of this county has presented two such men to the voters. One is O. H. Christy and the other. Dolph Evans. The private affairs of both candidates have been successfully conducted If the county should be so fortunate as to secure their services it would have a guaranty of good and honest man agement.

The Humminu Bird.

Scientifically humming birds are
"trochilidae,'' and those who make a
special study of them are "'trochi~
diste the birds are not
identical with the old Greek ''trochi-
lus'' or runner bird, which, accord
ing to Herouotus, entered the laws OF
the sleeping crocodile and obliged it's
big friend by picking leeches from his
throat. The Spanish name for the
humming ':rd is ''tominejo''--mean g
third of dram, and referring, OF
course, to the birds minuteness. But
the prettiest names are these, such as
the French ''froufrou," which refer
to the humming noise sometimes pro-
duced by the almost incredibly rapid
vibration of the wings. "Purring with
her wings" is the expression OF
Thomas Morton Q632), the first Eng
lish writer to mention the humming
bird.

ANCIENT BEDS TOO sumPTuous.
Beautiful and Imposing They Were.
But Not ComfortabIe

Beautiful and Imposing They Were.
But Not Comfortable
In olden times beds were very sump-
tuous articles of furniture, and the
gift OF one in will represented in
many cases a large sum of money,
the bedstead with its fittings frequent
ly having cost several hundred
pounds. In Elzabeth's time and
earlier, bedsteads were imposing crea-
lions of oak, richly carved in all man
ner OF quaint device, with, perhaps. a
grlnnlng satyr peering from behind a
pillar, sufficiently grotesque to muir
der the slumbers Of the most somno-
lent. Those We're the days, too of
heavy silken hangings, valances and
quilts. all richly embroidered in silk
and Nd and silver thread with heavy
bulllI- fringes to add weight and ma
Jesty. Such beds may be seen in
some OF the valuable collections at
the museums and at English country
seats. such as Warwick castle and
other notable old places. To modern
eyes they compare very unfavorably,
despite their intrinsic value. with the
simple, dainty beds of modern times.

Arctic Expedition Amusein ents.

In the British arctic expedition of
1875 one OF the chapiains had a file of
the London Times twenty years old
containing the Crimean war reports.
One copy was given out to each ship
daily; the officers had it first, then it
went to the forecastle, and soon every
one was as keen about the news as if
the war had been proceeding. The
clergyman in control of the press was
besought to issue an evening edition,
and when Sebastopol was about to be
taken excitement ran so high that the
newspaper office, a locker, was almost
stormed. The editor, however, was
firm, and continued with his daily is
sue. the interest being kept up to the
end of the expedition.

full and complete account of the trou-
BILE between Rev. R. Seymour and
some of the people of St. James A. NJ
r. Church. of this city in the Chicago
and St. Paul editions of THE AP-
PEAL, showing the nature of the
charges filed with Bishop c. P. Shaffer
and with Rev. H. H. Thompson, Pre-
siding elder; also why they could not
be filed with the stewards, the action
of the Presiding Elder from the time
he arrived in the city until the Bishop
arrived, which will include the Sc
cret quartedly conference, that was
held, the Bishops action before the con-
gregation on Sunday, Jan. 21st and
Monday night. Jan 22nd, including his
decisions. l will also show that the
trustees, as board, never had any
charges filed with the Bishop or the
Presiding Elder, that every charge
was filed by individuals.
I shall show how easy it is, under
the Bishop ruling of a technicality of
the discipline, that preacher in the
A. M. E. Church. though his character
may be as black as night, may break
up homes, collect moneys and refuse
to report for the same, may publish
slanderous and false statements con-
corning his members, make false
and still go scot free All OF which
facts I shall give for the benefit OF
Justice and fairness. q

wonderful of all Alpine birds-a gray.
Huttering. stealthy creature, about the
size of sparrow, but of colder gray
and more graceful, which haunts the

wrote: There is something more
strange in it than in the sea-gull-

ADVERSE, so hopelessly destructive.
But this small creature, silent, tender.

modern one of it's kind, and to say the
least, it is attractive to the eye--es-

His invention is a petite brunette
OF nineteen summers, as pretty as
fairy queen, and the only fear of the
coal merchant is that some of his Gus
charms, will marry her and take her
away before he can amass a fortune
at the coal business by having her in
the Office as drawing card.
This young man is the employer of
the human advertising card" and the
owner of the fuel store said that he
concluded previous to buying the
place that the only thing that would
draw trade would be beautiful young
girl in the Office whose sole duties.
we're to sit in front of the window and

This is all the young woman has to
DO all day, as the energetic young
ccai merchant attends to all the office
duties OF course, there is no danger
OF the employer becoming infatuated
with his help. Several sign painters
