 Arizona Democrat. The last of the drive of 23,O00 sheep on the way from Pecos Valley, N. M., to Salt River valley, are now nearing the Arizona line. The drive is one of the largest made in recent years and the record for losses for the two months the band has been on the trail is remarkable. The usual loss in band of sheep of this size Is seldom less than a sheep day. The present drive has lost less than 100 head from the herd, including the sheep eaten by the herders. The sheep are said to be in good condition, fully as good, according to the herders, as when they started from the Pecos valley. A big ship ment of bucks reached Albuquer- que by rail and were added to the flock across the river.

Thus the millionaire in national
public life has an inealculabIe advan-
tage over the poor man in public life
1t would be hard, too, to reckon the
weight which frce-handed social in
tefcourse has upon the shaping of ma
tfonal policies and the enactment of
practical legislation When public
men and their wives meet at the home
OF another public man, sit about his
brilliant board, and mingle afterwards
in charming and intimate conversa-
tion, a subtle bond is established
which has it's effect here in America,
just as the same cause has produced
the same result in England and in
every other country at all periods of
history.
But the public man who, amid these
surroundings, must live on his salary,
cannot attend these functions. Any
gowns that he might buy for his wife
and daughters would look shabby and
grotesque compared with the elegant
equipage of their more fortunate sis
ters. Such man may bc far ADLER
and more Industrious than his rich
colleague, and yet all these natural
abilities are neutralized by the purely
artificial influence of social entertain

In comparison the poor public man
and his family must live in an atti-
tude Of perpetual apology. And why
should this be?
Decidedly the rich man who is not
pre-eminent in craftsmanship must go.
Decidedly also the demagogue must
go. Decidedly something more than
millions and a purchased public repu-
tation on the one hand, and flaming
appeals to passion and class hatred
on the other hand, must be required
of would-be public men if the gov
ernment Of, by, and for the people is
not to be run exclusively by CroeSus

Human Leather.

Human skin can be prepared tanned
and made into durable articles as sue
cessfully as can the skin of horses and
other animals. The resulting leather is
very much like dogslin or pigsIin. Will
liam Hansell of Philadelphia has the
largest article which has ever been
known to be made from human skin
beautiful pure white sadde-and any
one examining it would be at loss to
tell the kind of skin from which it is
made. The pores have a familiar look,
but the skin itself is of an astonishing
thickness. This saddle was made from
the skin of one man. A WOman's skin,
generally speaking, would be too deli
cate. Human skin leather is a very rare
article and there is no general trade in
it. Sometimes a physician will have a
piece, made into cover for an instru-
mcnt case and occasionally medical stu
dents get enough to be made into purse
or pair of slippers. Patients sometimes
have belt or book cover or some
such article made from a limb which
has been amputated
The work of tanning human skin is
pretty much the same as that of curing
any other skin. Curiously enough tat
tooing goes through the epidermis to the
under skin and not little of the tanning
of human skin is done for the purpose
Of preserving the designs tattOoed upon
it. Scalps with the hair on them so
tanned are said to make the best wigs
known. and because the tanning is done
case with furs and most of the hair
covered skins of commerce, the resulting
leather IS much more durable.
It is very. hard to get workmen to
handle the leather. Mr.. Hansel, owner
of the saddle spoken of above, gave his
piece OF skin, after it had been tanned,
to an old workman who had always made
up all his leather gods and told him to
make it into a saddle Three weeks the
workman kept the skin and one day he
brought the partly finished saddle to Mr..
Hansell with some question about finish
ing. BY the way, HanselI.' he remark
ed Il wish you would tell me what this
skin is. 1t is the most contrary stuff /
ever worked with
Very injudiciously Hansell informed
him that it was human yeather. At that
the workman dropped the half-hnished
saddle and left without a word. He never
returned and nothing would induce him
to finish the job. Mr.. Hansel turned the
unfinished saddle over to another work
man. but he took good care not to tell
him what kind of leather the "contrary
stuff" was.

RALLY OF PRONOUNCED Proper
TONS ON THE STOCK Ex-
CHANGE.

New York, Oct. 23.-The recent ten.
sion of the banking community was
yesterday considerably relieved and
the day passed with no adverse de.
velopments of a serious character, but
with much that was ~reassuring. AT
the same time there vas evidence that
some of the banks most affected by re.
cent events were still in need of as.
sistance, but the promptness with
which the clearing house accorded
1t did much to allay further alarm.
The general improvement was re.
f1ected in the buoyancy of the stock
market and the steady advance in
prices from previous low levels.
Situation Still Serious.
The clearing house was called upon
to meet debit balances of the Mercan.
tile and the New Amsterdam banks to
the extent of upward of s. 1900. 900.
The fact that the clearing house
committee regard the situation as still
serious was shown by the remark of
a member of the committee that the
Mercantile banks debit balance was
unexpectedly large and discomfort
ing"
William Sherer. manager of the
clearing house, stated that the situa.
ton was under control: that some of
the more awkward features had been
eliminated, and that from this time
there would begin a new era in New
York banking.
On the stock exchange the improv-
ed banking conditions resulted in a
rally Of pronounced proportions. One
development yesterday which did not
tend to cas- the prevailing conditions
was the application for a receiver for
the firm Of Otto Heinze & Co., the
brokers, who were suspended from
the New York stock exchange last
week after a disagreement between
that firm and Cross & Kleeberg over
the acceptance of a block of stock of
United Copper.

AMERICANS PUT
IN RUSS PRISON
WILLIAM ENGLISH WALLING, HIS
WIFE AND HER SISTER, ARE
ARRESTED.
FOR ASS0C|ATING WITH films
WEALTHY SOCIALIST CHARGED
WITH GIVING FINANCIAL AID
TO REBELS.

st. Petersburg, Oct. %. - William
English Walling of Indianapolis, Ind,
his wife and his sist%er-in-law, Miss
Rose Transgy, were arrested in this
city last night by a force Of gendarmes
because of their association with sew
eral members of the Finnish Progress
sive party. A representative of the
American embassy appeared at the
headquarters in their behalf, but he
can take no action until to-day.
Is Wealthy Socialist.
Mr.. Walling is a wealthy socialist.
He is a grandson Of the late William
H. English, who was a vice presiden-
tial candidate in 1880, when Gen. Han
cock ran for the American presidency.
For several years Mr.. Walling has
taken ar active interest in the Rus
sian struggle, and this is the third
time he has visited Russia.
The Firms with whom the Wallings
have been associated were arrested.
Books and Papers Seized.
The arrest took place at the Hotel
de France, n of the leading hostel
ries of this city. The rooms of the
Walling party and the Firms were
thoroughly searched, and the gen.
darmes took possession of a large
quantity of books and documentary
material. "
Mr.. Wallings is intimate with many
leading revolutionists and Liberals.
He is accused by the police Of furnish
ing financial aid to the revolution,
though this charge is not the founda-
ton Of his arrest.
Another American Wanted.
It was impossible to learn last night
what the charge was against the
Firms. This will determine the accu-
sation against Mr.. Walling, but a
member of the secret service who &C
companied the gendarmes who made
the arrest said the order of arrest had
originated in his section and that the
secret service had been shadowing
Mr.. Walling constantly for two years
past.
The police have been instructed to
look also for James NJ. James, a New
York newspaper mar who has been
over here for a New York weekly and
several socialist papers.

Channel From Lakes to Cult.
Vicksburg, Oct. 23.-After a fort
night spent in the canebrakes and
looking bronzed and vigorous, Presi-
dent Roosevelt paid a flying visit to
V~icksburg yesterday afternoon. After
a drive through the city and the IA
tional cemetery, the president was
conducted to a stand in the court
house square. He was introduced to
the large audience by John Sharp Will
liams. The president received an en-
thusiastic reception. The streets were
packed with people and the chief ex-
ecutive was cheered at every oppor-
tunity. When Congressman Williams
said that Theodore Roosevelt was
president of the whole country, Dixie
Land and Yankee Land alike, the dem
onstration was notable.
The president said in part:
Il shall go back to Washington with
the set purpose to do everything that
in me lies to see that the United
States does it's full share in making
the Mississippi river practically a part
OF the coast, In making 1T a deep
channel to the Great Lakes from the
gulf. In my next message to congress
| shall advocate as heartily as l know
how that the congress now elected
shall take the first steps to bring
about hat deep channel way and the
attendant high and broad levee system
which will make of these alluvial bot
toms the richest n most %populous
and most prosperous agricultural land
not only in this nation but on the face
Of the globe"
After closing his address the presi-
dent and party were driven to the
station and left at $50 for Memphis,
where they will be transferred to the
Louisville & Nashville railway and
the trip to Nashville will be begun.
