gets a profit of 1900 per cent out of it and when the children of the poor of Rome are offered salt or sweetmeats they take salt. In France at one time th5Ia were from 2000 to 5000 arrests a year for violations of salt laws that worked a hardship upon the people. Not only were Nigh prices maintained, and fiscal agents employed to dump back into the sea any salt illicitly made, but each family was compelled to buy a certain quantity of salt, and no one was allowed to use it twice. To prevent tanners from using it for any purpose other than tanning it was poisoned. In Saxony as late as 1SlS the purchase of salt at government mo- nopoly prices in stipulated quantities Was compulsory.
 Not worth his salt" is an expression that dates back to the days of the an- ecient Roman empire, but few persons use the word salary" with the knowledge that it means salt money" The word IS derived from the Latin "sa1arium argen- tum." Each Roman soldier and each military and civil official travelling m government service was allowed ration of salt or the equivalent in cash Ere quently the salarium argentum of the of ficial, was expanded to the proportions of a legislators stationery account. and from the Roman soldiers ration and the Ro man officials graft originated salary as it is used today.
 So universal is the use of salt that there is a prevailing belief that human life is dependent upoD-it, but historians describe tribes that subssted without i:. and it is claimed that the Films did not know salt until they got 1t from the Ayran races. Daniel Boone was two years in Kentucky without a bite or a pinch of salt But there are ample proofs that all men, as well as animals, are salt eaters when they have access to it. Say ages of early history fought for the pos session of salt springs, and the bones of prehistoric animals at Ticks attest tls fact that ever since the glacial period salt has attracted them. .One of the

SHERIFF DID NOT
 FIRE OFFICERS
Rumor That Two Lowell Depu- ties Were Dismissed Was
 Without Foundation,

Many rumOrs were current on the streets yesterday afternoon to the ef- feet that Sheriff Jack White had re- vOked the commissions of Charles McKean and gohn NJ. Johnson of Lowell, who have been acting as spec ial officers in that vicinity during the last month.
 Just how the story started or where it got its inception could not be learn ed, but when interviewed on the sub ject last night by Review reporter, Sheriff White denied that the com. missions had been revoked, but ad- mitted that he had received some Complaints about the officers and after a thorough investigation found that they were without foundation and informed the officers that they would continue in their duties as heretofore.
 He said it was his intention to carry out the law to the letter and if he found any of his deputies ex ceeding their, authority CT negiectine their duty he would see that their term as officers was cut short, and men whom he could rely on to dc their duty put in their places.

SUBSCRIPTION |. LIST FOR FIRE DEPARTMENT
M, Neuman and Alderman Allen Have Charge of Paper That Should Meet with a Response From People,

A subscription list was being cir culated yesterday for the purpose of raising funds for the betterment of the Bisbee Fire Department. Alder man l.. R. Allen and M. Neuman of the Fair Store have charge of the list, and while a few eyinced a disposition to hang back, the majority of those seen subscribed liberally.
 The movement, coming just after the Chihuahua Hill fire, seems more than opportune, as the experiences of those two hours may be repeated in almost any portion of the city at any time. The people of Bisbee have but to let their minds revert to that scene, when a gallant but insufficient equip ped volunteer fire department won the unequal battle against the flames, to realize the vital importance of this matter. All Bisbee applauded them, and now is the time for everyone in terested in the safety and welfare of the city to come forward with their donations for the betterment of her protection
 A complete list of the subscribers to this fund will be published in the Re view in a few days.

EXPERT COWBOYS ID CHEYENNE TODAY
JohnStone and Nations Will Try to Capture Some of the Prizes at Contests on 26th of Present Month,

Tom Johnstone and c. o. Nations two we'll known cowboys who have taken an active part in nearly all of the roping and riding contests in this vicinity during the past year, will leave for Cheyenne, Wyoming, tonight to take part in the roping and riding contests to be held insFthat city on July 26, at which cowboys from all parts of the country will compete for championship honOrs in all the events which will include rOping, riding and steer tying.
 Johnstone has the reputation of be ing one of the fastest ropeFs in the country, and if he can equal his record made in the Indian Territory last summer he should have very little trouble in winning first money.
 Jim Kinney, the local cowboy who holds the record for steer tying in Ari- zona, has decided not to go north as he has just signed a contract to de, liver a bunch of cattle in Douglas on the 25th of this month, and would therefore be unable to go north with the men who will represent the south, west in the big contest.
 The management of the big show to be held in Cheyenne used their ut nigal, the worlds champion. to enter the contest, but as the latter is in Nevada giving exhibitions in com pany with Nigger Tickets, it will be impossible for him to be present

 For the past two months we have been doing practically no business in the copper market.
