The Western Federation of Min
ers and the l. w. w. have separa-
ted. Another divorce that the
public approves of.
If the national headquarters of
the two old parties refuse corpora
ton donations this year what fat
time the ward healers will have.
The Goldfeld Daily Tribune is
becoming a very interesting pa
per, it has arranged to publish one
chapter of THE Newlyweds-
Their Baby" each day.
The Socialist party are not going
to be left in the coming campaign
and will nominate full State and
county ticket. They will help
make the legislative race in Lyon
county interesting.
The mine owners of Goldfield
are at last doing the right thing
and the State is being properly adj
vertised by an immense production
of gold and the payment of long
delayed dividends.
The newspapers of the State are
filling much space with the we'd
ding of George Wing6eld. We
had often thought George ought
to get married and now hasten to
join the throng in extending con-

We overhead a citizen say that
he wanted the "naked truth" about
the condition of our city finances.
Would it not be we'll to have the

getting close to naked.
We are sorry to note by the
headlines of a Republican daily
published at San Francisco that
there are two kinds of Republic
ans in that city. The Bulletin
says: "A Task for Decent Mem
bers Of the Republican Party"
All Republicans are decent here.
The political pot may boil in
some sections but it is SO hot here
that the leaders on both sides have
decided not to fire up-everythine
will be settled by the bosses be-

There is much discussion about
the water question. OFF hand
opinions, legal and otherwise, have
been given and there is some con-
fusion in the minds Of a few. 1t
must be remembered that Yering-
ton is incorporated under special
act of the legislature, and each
and every section of that act will
stand as law until passed upon adj
versely by the courts. Thus far
the City Council have acted le-
gally and strictly within their
rights. Not one word in the spec
ial act prohibits the publication or
consideration of a dozen resolu-
tons at the same time. In fact
there is nothing in the act to pre-
vent the City Council from grant
ing two or three franchises if it
sees fit to do so. The special
election, which cannot be avoided
on account of the petition of the
taxpayers, will settle the question
as to whether the Council can
grant a franchise to the Es-
den people. What we desire
is a water system, owned by
the city. The quickest way to get
it now is to vote down the Esden
proposition, grant franchise to
the local applicants and then pur-
chase the plant next year. Under
our charter the city can issue
bonds and build its own plant, but
that is unnecessary when local
company will build and give the
city the right to purchase at any
time, especially when the plant
can be secured so much quick
that way under existing circum-
stances.

KOkOmO Woman
 Gives Fortune
To Help Women Who Suffer.

Tn the past few years Mrs. Cora B. Miller has spent SIPS. 100000 in giving medical treatment to afflicted women.
 Some time ago We announced in the columns of this paper that she would send free treatment to- every woman who suffered from female diseases or piles.
 More than a million women have ac- ceptcd this generous offer and as Mrs. Miller is still receiving requests from thousands of women from al parts of the world. who have not yet used the remedy. she has decided to continue the offer for awhile longer. at least.
 This is the simple, mild and harm less preparation that has cured so many women in the privacy of their own homes after doctors and other remedies failed.
 It is especially prepared for the speedy and permanent cure of leucor- rhoea or whitish discharges, ulcera- tion displacements or falling of the womb. profuse. scanty or painful pc riods, uterine or ovarian tumors or growths; also pains in the head, back and bowels. bearing down feelings. nervousness, creeping feeling up the spine. melancholy, desire to cry, hot flashes, weariness and piles from any cause, or no matter of how long stand inS.
 Every woman sufferer. unable to find relief, who will write Mrs. Miller now without delay. will receive by mail free of charge, a 50-cent box of this simple home remedy. also a book with explanatory illustrations showing why women suffer and how they can easily cure themselves at home with out the aid of a physician.
 Don't suffer another day. but write at once to Mrs. Cora B. Miller. 5e87 Miller Building. KokomO, Indiana.

Mental Ability Saved g Play.

In Some of My Stag Associates. ." in the April McClure's Ellen Terry re calls some delightful characters of Mead. She says.
 Tn the days just before the break up, which came about before Mead was old. and too fond of the wine when il is red, Henry used to suffer great anxiety in the scene. because he never knew what Mead was going to say. When Jerome Lesurques says. Am I mad or dreaming? Would were.' Mead one night gave a less po- etic reading:
 Am I mad, or drunk? Would I were,'
 'Lesurques will not commit the Roman suicide of honor and refuses to take up his pistol from the table What. You refuse to die by your own hands, do you? says the elder Les urques. Then die like a dog by mine producing a pistol from his pocket)
 One night, after having delivered the line with his usual force and i'm pressiveness. Mead after prolonged fumbling in his coat pockets added an other:
 Gstillll bidSl-NIbu DltSS HlN SOUL. Where's the pistol? I haven't got the pistol
 The last scene in the eventful his tory of Meadisms in The Lyons Mail was when Mead came on to the stage in his own top hat. went over to the sofa, and lay down apparently for a nap! Not a word could Henry get from him and Henry had to play the scene by himself and did so in this way:
 You say faith, that [ etc. an swer you that it is false
 From Mead had a remarkable foot. Norman Forbes called it an architec- tural foot. Bunions and gout cOmbin- ed to give it a gargoyled effect. One night Henry, paving the ground with his foot before an exit came down on poor old Mead's foot. Hardly had Mead stopped cursing under his breath when on came Tyars and brought his foot down heavily on the same foot. Directly Tyars came off the stage he looked for Mead in the wings and of fered an apology. "I beg your par don-Tm really sorry, Mead
 Beg my pardon indeed the old man snorted. It's a damned con- conspiracy"

THREE YEARS VACATION
 OF MR. Ii. C. SMITH
Mr. H. C. Smith, Former Lumber Mag
 nate, in Phoenix Yesterday.

Among yesterdays arrivals from the south was Mir. Hiram C. Smith of San Francisco. who it is said has been en- gagged in heayler IumDer transactions than any other man on the coast But Mr. Smith has been paying little at tentiou to business for the last three years. He has been putting in the time in a tour of the world and is now on his way home. He visited Medit erranean ports. important points in Europe and crossed to South America. which he toured quite thoroughly. crossing the Andes into Chili Return ing to New York he set out for Mex ico. where he has just spent several weeks
 He thinks that the southern republic is a most progressive country and Is distinguished from most others by the fact that the government seldom makes a mistake. Every move made is for the betterment of the country and the effect of 1t almost instantan- eous.
 There is a great influx of American capital and merchandise into the re- public, which in a few years has be- come one of the cOuntry's most valu- able markets.
 Leaving Mexico MT. Smith came di- rectly to Arizona. stopping at Doug las Tombstone and Silverbell to see the properties Of the Development Company Of America at the two last named places He was impressed by the rapidity with which things were moving and the arrangements which had been made for the handling of business Another thing which i'm pressed him was the character of the men about the mines and smclters. all Of whom seemed to take a personal interest in the affairs of the company. He said that if the so-called hard times had affected the mining business Of the country he had failed to observe any signs of the depression at either Imperial or Tombstone
 This is not the first visit of Mir Smith to Phoenix He was here last about seven years ago and he was glad to notice on his return the great changes for the better that had taken place since then.
 Mir. Smith left for the north this morning with the party of Mir Mur- phy.

STRENGTHENED TEAMS
 10 BATTLE TODAY
A Double Header and Souths.de Ex-
 cursion For City League.

With a considerably reinforced bat talion the Orphans in white suits will go to war with the Fraternals bedeck- ed with their many laurels of recent games won, this afternoon at iIastlake park But this will not be the only game, for Glendale will take on the MarOons who will have a new catcher to bolster up their lineup. Each game will go for seven chapters and Gorm- ley will hold the indicator. The en- counter between the Frats and Or phans has been deferred in order to give the latter aggregation q chance to get in trim and their chances of making the game somewhat equaliZed. No one cares to see a slaughter and 1t is no credit to the winning team and demOralizing tO the victim. With this in view it is the purpose of the city league executive committee to pre- serve the integrity and equality be- tween the hines as far as possible. It is now thought that the three squads are well matched. Tebben, the hard hitting first sacker has joined the Or phans. Hull has been working out and will deliver the goods. Millet of Mesa, the fast outfielder. will also be seen in action on this nine today. Captain Lewis stated last night that the Orphans had purchased the Wood men white suits and are going at it right These new suits will be dis tributed at President Galpin's store this morning.
 To the Fraternal bunch has been added Warner who is expected to help out the batting average with q timely hit Vermuelen is slated to toss the game against the Orphans. Both line ups look good to the fan and it would be a hard matter to pick the probable winner of this game. That both hines are out for blood is certain and each has it's supporters among the regulars who are found perched on the roOst behind the screen. So this combat will have for it's motto. an eye for an eye and base hit for a bingle. Louie Quiros will be seen back in the pitch CTS position today against the Beet Eaters He is said to be in finer form than last season The game being only seven innings will make it some what easier on him. but Johnson showed some class last Sunday and is likely to hold the Maroons down to a respectable number of hits. Giving him the same support the Mexicans will have to play ball if they win. The outlook for a good series of games in the city league is flattering.
 The batting order of the Orphans today is as follows: Ninson, third; Lewis, If: Tebben. third; Magoffin. second. CiSueV. short. Millett Cf Harter catcher; Towers, first; Hull, D.: Peirce. Volk and HeinZe in re- serve Fraternals-Warner. ss.; Ru dolph. third; Williams. second; Sulli- van: If. Mullen or Tevis, If; Yer muelen. D: Mitchell. first; Byers. cf.; Morris. c. The line of the Maroons and Glendale will be the same as last Sunday with the exception of Quiros in the box. Congo to catch and Chut- nicut in the field.

THE MARVELS OF INDIAN MAGl.
 CLANS.

The American fakir is probably un- aware that he can trace his ancestry to a more ancient source than any royal family of Europe or the Orient. Though the dictionaries derive our word "fallir" from the Anglo Saxon and regard our fakirdom as entirely independent of the ancient Asian in stitution, Dr. Richard Schmidt consid CTS the European and American fakir as merely a degenerate product of the Indian fakir.
 In a volume entitled "FalIirs and Fakirdom in Ancient and Modern In- dia, Dr. Schmidt an eminent German authority on East Indian subjects. of the marvellous feats of the various makes an exhaustive scientific study religious orders and ascetics and men dicants in that country. For the fakir has for many centuries played prom inent role in the Indian religion Dr. Schmidt has carefully collected his data from the most reliable native and European sources. His book is based chiefly upon the researches of Professor Ernest Kuhn, of Munich. and Professor Richard Garbe. of Tu- bingen. By adding to these his own investigations. he has succeeded in giving a trustworthy account of the wonderful practices of these holy men of the Indian religion, or ''yogis'' as they are called.

Deafness Cannot Be cured

ment of the stork's expected visit was
made in this pretty way:
1t was not embarrassing to the
guest of honor and was altogether q
unique affair. The place cards were
sealed envelopes, bearing the guests
names. The hostess asked us not to
open them until the dessert course,
then to begin at her left, each one to
read the verse her envelope con.
tanned; the last to read was the lady
on the right of the hostess and her
verse told the story.

Over the mists Of the darkening void,
Where the skies are pale and the winds
blow cold,
Down where the gates of life, unfurled,
Let the souls pass through the throbbina
world.
Flew the red-legged stork
And he flew and flew
For ten score days and seventy more,
TIL he reached the house of the open
door,
Where the angel of gifts stood waiting
near,
With dimples and smiles and a glittering
tear
Over white wastes Of cleaning snow.
over fair meadows where buttercups
grow,
And fields where the red peoples Sleep

To the songs of the robins, sung to God,
Flew the red-legged stork,
And he sang as he flew:
winds do not hinder Incline is fleet;
Sun, do not burn me; withhold your heat;
carry a link loves chain to complete,
And my burden is precious-a baby
sweet.
Frost do not blight me in my flight;
Rain, do not spoil my feathers white;
For the way is long and Time is fleet
And my burden Is precious-a baby
sweet"
Down under arches of shimmering blue.
Where the south wind lives and the sun

Over still spaces, where moonbeams
sleep,
And the stars climb over the cloud-stair

And he sang as he flew:
Blue of the heavens color her eyes;
Kiss her soft feet, We rose flushed skies;
carry Gods message, mems love to
meet,
And my burden is precious-a baby
sweet
