Bv snacial Rannest-

By special request Two Mar
RED Men" will be repeated with the
same cast which appeared in the
play last Tuesday night on Thurs
day night, May %, at Reynolds
Opera House. Many Of those who
bought tickets for the performance
Tuesday night were prevented from
being present on account of the
rain, and a general request was
made for a repetition of the play.
Those who saw the play, aud the
house was almost filed notwlth-
standing the weather, were very
agreeably surprised. The perform
ance was a complete success-it
was a hit. Everyone expressed
this opinion and many said that it
could not have been presented with
better effect by much of the profess
sional talent. The topliners were
Miss Crenshaw and Mr.. Murphy,
both of whom were complimented
very highly. Others of the cast
were Luther ]. Cherry, t. S. Hudg-
ms, A. c. Monrotus, Thad Lee,
Miss Lucille George, Miss Nell John
son, whose parts were presented in
such a manner as to constitute
we'll balanced performance, The
1.-Two Married Men" is a comedy
of the lighter vein, we'll adapted
for local work. 1t has also the
merit of bright, entertaining dia-
logue and convulsing humor, and
the young people had the tact to
enter into the spirit of the play,
with the result that everybody was
pleased.
The singing specialties by the
four young ladies, Misses Lucille
and Ruth Wells, Elsie Brice and
Kathleen Watson had also the chic
and spirit of winner. The young
ladies fairly covered themselves
with laurels.
Miss Gus Dodson, one of the best
performers IN the city, was the

Rev. 10 McLeskey, the Abraham
and sage of the Cumberland Pres
byterian Church, was one of the
passengers Wednesday gong to
Dickson-back to the nativity of
his church to renew his faith and
devotion, if such is possible, to its
primitive doctrines and institu-
tions. He goes back to inspire his
flock with new life and strength in
the teachings that he has held sa-
cred during long and useful life.
Rev. MeLeskey was a giant among
Cumberland Presbyterians during
the days of Reuben Burrow and the
old guard. His church views were
unfaltering, but his overshadowing
genius was the spirituality and
power of his religion. His great
field was the campground and al
tar of the church, and he has won a
thousand battles and vanquished
Satan in as many struggles. His
creed may not stand the uses of
criticism, but his Christianity is as
firm and unalterable as the imper-
ishable Rock of Ages.

Forged Check.

Dave Hunt, colored, was arrested
and jailed Wednesday for forging
check on Mr.. Fope Herring. The
check was for $46.70, accompanied
by a statement of account. The
papers were pinned together and
the statement read as follows
Dave Hunt-2 IL months work
at $21.00 per month. Whole am
cunt $3.50. Paid $3.50. Balance
due SAG. TO-"
The check was drawn on the
Commercial Bank. Hunt came to
town and undertook to do some
trading. The negro offered the
check to Mr.. Malone to be used as
pay for some merchandise, which
he had bargained for, and expected
Mr.. Malone to pay him the balance
in cash. Mr.. Malone sent the check
to the bank for Endorsement, and
it was promptly returned as
forgery. Mr.. Pardue was called
and the negro was taken to Jail.
The note and account were legi-
bly, written, and the supposition is
that the negro haze some assistance.

Principal of the Ridgedale school

The high standards in the City

COUNTY CONTRACTS
MADE FOR THE YEAR
As Usual the Main Struggle Conferred
Around the County Printing.

The board of supervisors yesterday
awarded the county contracts for the
coming year. As usual the chief con-
troversy occurred over the printing
contract, for which there were two
bidders. The Democrat and The Sat
urday Review. The latter was hardly
a qualified bidder. being only a week
~ paper. but il was stated that If the
contract were awarded to il, il would
qualify by becoming a twice-a-week
paper. That was the most alarming
proposition that could have been
made to the board, which evidently
believed that once a week was enough.
The probability of the Review becom-
ing semi-weekly settled it. and the
board fastened to award the con-
tract to the Democrat. It NAV seem
paradoxical. but If the Review had
submitted q proposition to become
monthly. a quarterly, a semi-annUaI.
an annual or = nOt-at-all, the board
might have been induced To give it the
contract. II may be added however.
that the board took into consideration
among other things. the respective
circulatiOns Of the bidding papers. and
reasoned that public advertising. like
all other advertising. should be given
the greatest possible publicity. and
awarded the contract the same as a
business man would award his.

THE P0STOFfICE AND
PRAIT-GIIBERT GO.
Two Institutions That Are Waxing Fat
on a Typical Arizona Panic Which
Is an Alias For Prosperity.

one of the Thermometers which were
read yesterday for a testing Of local
prosperity conditions was the Phoenix
postoffice. The Christmas rush is on
Of course and big business is ex-
pected but comparison will be made
with the Christmas rush of a year ago
when everybody admits that Prosper
ity was in the saddle. The business
done by the Phoenix postoffice this
year during the month Of November
was 42i& per cent i'm excess of that
done during November a year ago.
The business done thus far in Deem
Der indicates that the month will be
at least 80 per cent greater than last
December. actual figures not being
available at this time. Attention is
called to the fact that the incorpOra
ton business. which makes business
for the postoffice, is much smaller and
to the further fact that the business
now being done is not the transmits
sion Of parcels. etc. by merely the
rich or well 10 do. but that most of
the business is by the great mass of
the people. Everybody is patronizing
the postoffice regardless of his sta
ton in life.
The registry business this year is
fully 80 per cent heavier than last
year. Last Thursday was the big day
this year. and 527 registered parcels
were sent out as against a new rec
ord for the office. The money order
business is larger than ever The bus
mess is larger than ever The bust

sued. per working day. and about 100
orders received. The orders received,
however. while fewer in number are
larger in amounts so that the money
coming in exceeds the outflow The
balance is in favor OF Phoenix
Another thing that is evidenced by
the postoffice business is that many
families have moved here recently
from the mining camps that for the
time being are not so lively. There
are hundreds Of new residents in the
city. perhaps hundreds Of families and
many Of them have come To locate per-

The business spirit is crushing out the

danger of great commercial decline, be-
cause men, as whole, think only of get

There are thousands, both men and
women, who do not take time to eat prop
erly. They rush through life, and as a
result we have an age of indigestion,
nervousness, irritability, sleepless nights
and morose dispositions.
With the discovery of Mi-o-na tablets,
there is 40 longer any excuse for one to

A Live Stock Center.

It Is rumored that an attempt will
be made to make Worcester, Mass,
center for the sale of New England
cattle. According to New England
Homestead, c. w. Wood, large cattle
breeder. says there are today within a
radius of fifty miles of Worcester fully
1900 head of Holstein cattle, and he
would favor Worcester as a central
dealing point for breeders. ]. B. Mar
con, an extensive breeder, is quoted to
the effect that Worcester is the best
place to hold live stock sales in New
England. where something of this char
acter is sadly needed as an impetus in
improving live stock. Many of the
farmers are too poor to buy the best
in competition with the wealthy farm
ers of central New York and the mid

HUNTING THE wALRus.

Rsse KILLED With Axes.
Whalers begun to turn their at
tention to walrus catching about
the year 1868. During the first part
of every season there is but little
opportunity to capture whales, they
being within the limits Of the icy
barrier. As result much Of the
xhalers' time during July and Au-
gust was devoted to capturing wal
ruses.
Men would be landed on the Alas
ka shore in June and left to watch
for the animals to haul up on the
beach at certain points. According
to the government reports, the wal
rus must either come ashore or get
on the ice to sleep. When a herd
is well ashore one or two old bulls
are generally left on watch.
The best shot among the hunters
now creeps up and by successful
rifle shot or two kills the guard.
Owing to their very defective hear
ing the noise made by the rifle does
not wake them. The gun is then put
aside and each hunter, armed with
a sharp az, approaches the sleeping
animals and cuts the spines of as
many of them as possible before the
others become alarmed and stam-
pede for the water and escape.
The white hunters rarely make
use Of anything but the two long,
curved tusks with which the animal
is equipped and which average
about five pounds to the pair. II
time permits, however, the flesh is
boiled and the oil saved. To many
of the Eskimos, especially on the
arctic shore, the walrus is almost a
necessity of life, and the devasta-
ton wrought among the herds by
the whalers has been and is yet the
cause of fearful suffering and death
to many Of the natives.
The flesh is food for men and
dogs. The oil also is used for food
and for lighting and heating the
houses. The skin when tanned and
oiled makes a durable cover for the
large skin boats. The intestines
make waterproof clothing, window
covers and floats. The tusks are
used for lance or spear points or are
carved into a great variety of useful
and ornamental objects, and the
bones are used to make heads for
spears and for other purposes.
In addition to hunting the wal
rus themselves the whalers also pur-
chase from the Eskimos the tusks,
or ivory, that they haze secured
