AS YET UNKNOWN TO FAME.
Can Any One Place This Quotation
from Philosopher

Louis Jones of the Grand opera
house had the blues His brother, n
colored man, usually in good humor,
had 'em, too. Neither knew just why
he had 'em, but they had 'em just the
same. They talked Of the weather,
the times and dozen other gloomy
subjects. There was nothing sunny
In the soul of patron or a barber.
Finally both sighed In concert and a
silence fell over the shop-yes, over a
barber shop. The colored man was
the first to speak. After several mo-
ments of silence he gave vent to an
other sigh and said:
well, as de old philosopah says:
'Ef yo' amt got nothin,' now's yo'
time"
Jones is still wondering who the
philosopher was.-Indianapolis News.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

This whose homely face you look upon
Was Of Natures masterful great men;
Born with strong arms, that unfought battles won,
Direct of speech, and cunning with the PEN
Chosen for large designs, he had the art
OF winning with his humor, and he went
Straight to his mark, which the human hearts
Visa, too, for what he could not break he bent.
Upon his back a than Atlas load,
The burden of the commonwealth was laid;
He stopped and rose up to II; though the road
Shot suddenly downward, not whit dsmayed.
Hold, warriors, councillors, klnesl All give place
To this dead Rsnefaetor Of the raceI

Lincoln's Sarcasm.

Probably the most cutting thing
Lincoln ever said was the remark he
made about a very loquacious man:
This person can compress the most
words into the smallest ideas of any
man / ever met"

To the Woman
 Behind the Desk

The little woman behind the desk. This is happy subject. yet one we approach with fear and trembling. We fear we cannot do the subject jus- tice.
 Say little woman, we may never have enjoyed the honor Of an intro duct;on, ironclad conventionality may have stepped in and precluded us from that splendid privilege. but we can place the proper estimate on you just the came.
 Did you ever pause to reflect on the power you wield? Just you. You who would run from a mouse or face lion in your sphere of duty; you who would wade through flame for child hood, for humanity; you who. uncon- sciously are moulding the destinies of this mighty nation.

Our AdiOs to Tombstone's S Visitors

Wewant to say jus. dainty"A to our late gnests, the teachers Of Cu- chise county.
 No loyelier aggregation of intclli- gence, beauty and devotion eyer graced the territory.
 If there is a sweet exhibition on earth it is to see little schooimam on her way to and from the scene If her duties, so gsrlanded about with sweet, devoted childhood, that her modest steps are absolutely retarded. When we were school children se- verity was the rule, and the one sd- monition ever uppermOst in the teach- CTS category was "spare the rod and spoil the child That bit of barbar-
 ism has been etfectually exploded long
 ago. IL has estranged a multitude of
 naturally good children from their
 parents and planted seeds of hatred in
 their hearts against their teachers. It
 was abnminable all along and becomes
 the more execrable the more one re-
 fleets upon it,
 3 You cannot teach a child success- l fully unless he respects you; if he
 loves you, so much the better. The | idea formerly obtained that woman - could not take the place of a man a- q a teacher-"she couldn't do the wal }, lop!ng act you know. No, she doesnt e need to, and the influence she exer- = cises over American childhood by he = sweet winning way, Is vastly stronger ,, than that which was formerly incul T cated with the strap.

 stitute.

ibiy as you dwen upon it. You hay in sense abjured many of the sweet amenities SO precious to average womanbood. You have been an ex. ample of personal sacrifice, you have constituted the vanguard to progress and civilization, but you must feel richly repaid for every instance of self denial and sbnegstion, when you re- fleet on the power for good which you exercIse. Every soldier in the trench fighting for the flag is carrying out the creed of patriotism, the lesson of virtue which you have planted in his breast. The saber stroke, the deadly clash of steel against steel, the still more worthy battle of life where men smite the denser elements for the sake | of some one, always woman, this is your battle and not his, this is the we'll fought day that you planned and he is simply the instrument through | which the end is achieved.

Women Who Wear We'll

It Is astonishing how great a change . few years of married life often make Tn the appearance and disposition of many wOmen- The freshness, the charm, the briliiance vanish like the bloom from a peach which .s TlaeiE handled. The matron is only dim shadow, faint echo Of the charming maiden. There are two reasons for this change. ignorance and neglect. Few young women appreciate the shock to the system through the change which comes with marriage and motherhood. Many neglect to deal with the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak nesses which too often come with mar riage and motherhood, no. understanding that this secret drain is robbing the cheek of it's freshness and the form Of it's fairness.

The fret round of the preliminary | in the battle between the Territory ard the Copper Qleen company over the question of the delinquent or back taxes amounting t1 oyer S2iO,O0D for the year 1901, was won by t"e Terri tory when they succeeded in having knocked out the plea in ab,temsnt offered by the attorneys for the de iense. This decision was not rend- cred until there had been a nunber of legal tilts by the attorneys on bith sides. scores of authorities and some oral .es,imcny introduced. The pIca was finally stricken out on account of lack of facts to sustain 1t. The ses sion late yesterday afternoon and tn, entire time Of the court up to the noor hour was taken up in the argument of the eighteen special demurrers as wei as the general demurrer to the com pisint.
 It is expected thas the question oi the demurrers will be settle this afternoon at late hour by Judg. Doan. who was busy from the noon hour until nearly three o'clock in looking over the list of cases cited as authority by the parties to the case. The argument presented on yesterday by Attorney Judson was Q masterly one and was listened to with great care by all who were present in the cour, room. The reply by Attorney General Clark was also an able one and showed that the attorney general had not been idle since the last trial of the case but had spent considerable time and study on the questions involved. From present appe rances it now looks as though the court would be able to get into the merits of the case this even ing or in the morning.

COPPER QUEEN CASE
Suit Involving Sum of $200,000 Back Taxes Due the Territory
 and cochise County.

The attention of the district court was taken up this morning in hearing the preliminary questions arising n the trial of the celebrated case os the County of Cochise vs The Copper Queen Consolidated Mining compsn, | for back taxes. which with interest | costs now amount to cons derable owe l | S2O0. 900, The case has been in .h' courts for a number of years and mos of the citizens of the county are wei i acquainted with the facts. The cas- ! was tried here at the last term of ( court by Judge Nave of Globe, who first rendered judgment in favor oi the Copper Qneen comn'ny, but after having briefs submitted to him by the attorneys of the county and territCry reversed his opinion and granted a new trial, and the ctse was again taken up this mOr,.iug It is expected that the trial of the case will take several days as there is vast amouut Oi tes-
 imony in tine shape of records to be introduced as well as many points oi law that will be submitted to tbe cour, and argued at length by coun'
 gel on both ides.
 The first move made in the case this morning was motion by the attor-
 neys for the Copper Qneen Company
 to have the name of Frederick \ Jud
 son of :; Louis entered as one of the attorneys for the defendant. MT. Jud J son is one oi the prominent tax attor ueys of Missouri, and as the present tax law of Arizona was taken from tn, Missouri law he is expected to be thor ' ough!y posted on the same and thu previous rulings of the courts of Mic
