and Michigan have subscribed for | large holdings.
 The Arizona mining men who have 1 invested their own money and who be- lieve the property is equal to any cop per showing in the southwest, are also affiliated with the management which | ought to prove unusually competent as well as honest and safe. The president and treasurer of the company Is Jas. | H. Bennett. a miner and geologist who has been operating in Arizona for twen- weight years and who has been sue cessful in the accumulation of a com , petence The vice president is Joseph J. Shaw, F. NJ, who made a national reputation among those of his profes- sion by extinguishng the fire in the United Verde mine. where others of reputed ability had failed after repeat ed attempts that covered series of many years. The secretary of the com pany is William Cunningham of this city. He is not professional mining man but is a gentleman of recognized judgment and integrity and until the first of the present year served this county as deputy sheriff and latterly as sheriff J. A. PoIterie of this city, also connected with the management is mining engineer and mineralogist and an assayer of good reputation and responsibility.
 President Bennett was asked how much of the treasury stock would be sold and replied that probably not over third of it and that the people who buy it. in his opinion. can get five dol lars for every one invested i'm less than two years. Continuing he said: Tt would not surprise me to see the stock the par value of which is $1O. go to from $50 to S7O. With the ore we have and the financial backing of the company I can't see why the stock should not advance as rapidly as did that of the C. & A. at Bisbee. which Is now quoted at S160 and Is Very hard to get
 If the plans of this company carry. and there seems tO be no reason why they should not. there will be some thing doing to the northwest of Phoe- nix before very long that will not only mean a great deal for that particular mining district. but will mean a great deal for Phoenix as its supply point MT. Bennett has operated a great deal in the Bisbee or Warren district and certainly has experience on which to base his confidence in the success Of his present undertaking.

TRICKS OF PARIS BEGGARS.
All Stock Tales of the Trade We'll
 Known to Fraternity.

This city is the happy hunting ground of the beggar, and especially at the New Year. He stops you at every corner of the street; he tries to hand you out of your carriage the moment you stop before shop or res taurant. It is partly the influence of the season, but it is an evil that is always with us more or less. Some have quite ingenious tricks to tempt the pity of the passerby.
 One lady, who is well known, de clares every evening at the Care St Lazare to any sympathetic looking stranger that she is a governess, and has lost her purse, and would the kind gentleman lend her 30 centimes And be pleased to give me your card" she adds, 'so that I may return the money" The ruse generally succeeds, but the mendicant has never been known to take the omnibus, except at the close of profitable evening, when she has probably victimized dozen who piles her singular industry in the Place de la Concorde, addresses her self exclusively to her own sex. AS a result, she obtains as much as five or ten francs from kindly matrons who are touched by her story.
 At the New Year the usual crop of beggars is so immensely increased that one supposes that the compara- lively we'll off must descend into the street to try their luck. No doubt it Is "metier" that has its Vaccinations. especially if 1t be but temporary Paris Correspondence Pail Mall Ga zette.

SWALLOWS FLIGHT IS RAPID.
Speed of 128 Miles An Hour Determin-
 ed in an Experiment.

The French scientific weekly, Ciel ct Terre, prints an interesting article about the speed of several birds, as ob- served by August Vershcurin of Ant werp. The rapidity os flight credited to the swallow (290 feet a second) seemed exaggerated to him and he un- dertook some experiments on his own hook.
 He sent several baskets of pigeons to Compeigne, France, and in a sepa- rate cage a swallow which had its nest under the gable roof of the rail road station at Antwerp. On Novem- Der ', at 1880 in the morning, all the birds were liberated at Compeigne; the swallow took a northern direction as quick as lightning, while the pig cons made several spirals in the air before they started in the same direc- tion. The swallow arrived at it's nest in Antwerp at S:23, number of wit nesses being present at it's arrival.
 The first pigeons only arrived at their destination at 11:30 of the same morning. The swallow had therefore, covered the entire distance of 146h miles in one hour and Is minutes, which is equal to q speed of 12Sh miles an hour, or about 1S9 feet a sec ond, which is about double the speed of an express train.
 The pigeons only reached speed of 35 miles an hour, or AS feet a second. It may be gathered from these figures how rapidly the migrations of the swallows take place, as with the speed given above it would require only half day to fly from Belgium or Central Germany to northern Africa

he left the Tombs carrying the heavy overcoat under his arm. Another man advised Thaw by letter to allow his hair to grow until the jury had rendered verdict. Perhaps that is the reason his long, dark brown hair needs trimming and is so unkempt Prisoners, after they have been con- fined in the Tombs, or any other pris- on, for that matter, for a length of time naturally grow superstftious. Thaw, however, developed that failing years ago and, it is said. often visited phrenologists and cl0irvoyants and frequently needed their advice. Dur ing his incarceration in the city prison number of fortune tellers and spirit ualists have endeavored to secure an audience with him. Thaw carries a rabbits foot in his vest pocket every time he enters the court room. This was sent him from Virginia by pick aninny who wrote that 1t saved a ne gro from the ga.iows.

He taught theE, so well they beat their father, the president, who failed to clear five-foot hurdle Baron Stern. burg was hussNr in the German army in the war with France and what he doesn't know about horses is not to be found in the best literature N1 the subject. He learned the art of riding from the ground up, for he en- listed as a private and worked his way along to a commission in crack cavalry regiment.
 The lesson that Baron Sternburg gave the Roosevelt boys was not their first under his tuselage. He has been out with them several times "on the quiet" and has managed to bring them to state of efficiency that already gives them the confidence and ability to follow the hounds. Capt. Fitzhugh Lee. of the Seventh cavalry, is assist. ant tutor and the president also takes hand occasionally, but leaves most of the instruction to the German ann bassador and the army officer.

 The horse that was first sent at the jump was Gray Dawn. gift to Theo- dore, Jr., by Capt. Seth Bullock, of Deadwood. If he lacks the style and conformation of Roswell and Audrey, he makes up in ginger and endurance. The jumping started at four and one half feet. The boys cleared this with little difficulty, but the president only topped the hurdle by supreme effort Then Baron Sternburg put up the bars to five feet, and the two boys tried it again. There were one or two balks for each, but they finally got over, their father and other specta- tors applauding.
 The president was not to be beaten by his boys if he could help it, so he put Roswell at the rail again. Ros- well started well, but the rail was too high and his rider too heavy so he quit at the bar. Again and again the president tried, but in vain, and to the delight of his sons he had to admit that he was beaten.

HARRY THAW A MARK FOR CRANKS OF ALL KINDS
CRANKS of every caliber through

N RANKS of every caliber through N out the country now have their minds concentrated upon Harry K. Thaw. Possibly there are few indi- viduals in New York who receive as many letters and postcards as the Pittsburger. He peruses a heaping bushel basketful of missives every day, and many of these contain mas cots, medals and prophecies. Thaw is superstitious to marked degree, and when crank from Chicago wrote that he would be freed on St. Pat ricks day he looked forward to March IF with much anxiety only to be doomed to disappointment Another writer advised Thaw to carry his gray ulster every time he entered the court room, because the garment was a talisman and would bring good luck. That the prisoner followed the advice of the writer tl ere is no doubt, be- cause the other day, when the tenn perature reached 90 in the court room.

FOOL KILLER AND TIME KiLLER.

Under the above title the Fort Smith Times has the following to say editori- ially:
 ''In casting about for some means to waste the money of the state by talk ing up time in useless legislation, Rep resentative Finley hit upon the scheme of introducing a bill prohibiting smok- ing of cigar, pipe or cigarette in any hotel rotunda, depot, train, street car, or in any public place. The fool-killer is derelict in his duty. Now if MT. Finley has more time to spare please wont he draft bill to prohibit snoring in any sleeping car, or any hotel where the partition walls are less than 6 in ches thick and stuffed with sound ab- sorbing material.
 We admit there is no vociferous public demand for this law but it will give him an excuse for taking up some of the valuable and fast-expiring time of the law making body and will enable him to make a..further show of earning his per diem. and impress his constitu- ency with the idea that he is alive to their interests and the interests of the whole state.
 Perhaps MT. Finley's bill is not just what it ought to be. It is quite ire quently the case that the reformer goes too far in his efforts to reform, but one thing is sure: one of the greatest hui sances in American public life, at least to part of the American people is the smoking nuisance We would not un- dertake to prohibit the sacred habit of smoking, or in the least to infringe up- on the ''pussunel privileges of the free American citizen, but that this class of citizens ought to respect the rights of another class, it seems to us entirely proper. The Hobbies of our hotels, our banquet halls, even our din. ing rooms and cafes and senate cham. Der and house of representatives are continually in a fog of smoke. Ever ladies are not respected. It is now considered perfectly proper to rush in to private office puffing smoke with out even asking so be excused.
 Now, if everybody smoked, it would not be so bad; but everybody does no smoke. Many take up the habit in self

MORGAN TO TEAR DOWN THE OLD DODGE MANSION

His idea Is to SC. cure an open space all around it by moving the Dodge mansion, which covers the middle of the block on the Madison avenue side and stands be- tween the museum and the avenue. The area thus secured will be turned into landscape garden, to beautify the side approach to the museum. This half-million-dollar garden" will have frontage of 67 feet. with a depth of l67 feet. Almost the entife block in which the museum stands Is owned by Mir. Morgan, who recently bought the Phelps mansion on the Thirty-seventh street corner of Madi- son avenue for $6o0,000 and presented it to J. Pierpont Morgan. Jr. MT. Morgan himself and his daughter. Mrs. Satterlee, occupy the mansions on the Thirtyseventh street corner.

| PIERPONT MORGAN has become Js an expert on fireproofing matters.
 He has announced his intention to de- molish the old Dodge mansion, for which he recently paid $500 ,000, to make his art museum absolutely safe from fire. The museum, which stands on the same block, bounded by Thirty sixth and Thirty-seventh streets, Park and Madison avenues, Is a magnifi- cent building, erected at a cost of $2,000,000. The museum itself is a thoroughly fireproof structure, built throughout of terra-cotta hollow tile brick, and is considered practically immune from flames. It is a store house of priceless art treasures, which constitute one of the most valuable private collections of paintings tapes. tries and worries In the world. MT.

MERE OPINION.

In addition to being hard, the way of the transgressor is we'll greased.
 Most men are able to appreciate the blessings of toll only after they lose their jobs.
 When man has nothing to do he finds it very wearisome unless he can persuade somebody to help.
 There are many people in this world whose actions indicate that they think with their stomachs.
 The world may owe every man a living, but it is not under any obliga- tion to pay interest on the debt.
 It is hard for some people to under stand that there may be pleasure in anything which doesn't cost more than they can afford to pay.
