It is all settled now and the contract for the erection of the Y. NJ. c. A.. building has been let to Clinton Camp bell for $59,425. his original bid for the work. Some slight changes were made in the terms Of the contract signed, but in no way affecting the cost of the building or the price named for it's construction, features that were changed merely for the conven fence or the satisfaction of the con- tractor.
 MT. Campbell also agreed with the board that so far as possible in the purchase of materials for the construc- ton Of the building he would patron- iZe subscribers to the Nbuilding fund, providing he could secure materials from them at the same prices he could get it elsewhere, and thus to the greatest extent possible, patronize home industry and keep as much of the money as possible in local circu- lation.
 The building will be located on the original site where the cellar has al- ready been eXcavated, on the south east corner Of the Y. M c. A block. Construction will begin just as soon as the materials can be assembled and the working forces organized.
 All this was arranged at yesterdays meeting of the board of directors. The chief matter before the board now is the collection of the money subscribed to the Y. M. C. A. building fund and that will be put up to the subscribers in the most vigorous manner possible. A collection Campaign will be inaug- urated at once and an effort made to collect every dollar due on the first, second and third installments of the subscriptions. A few have paid up in full. few more have paid their three payments now matured, in full, and very few have paid nothing at all while many are behind on their second and third payments.
 It costs money to build houses. The subscriptions were taken and it is be- lieved were given, in good faith. The board has now begun the actual con struction and if the subscribers will do their part there will be no cessation of the work until the building is com pleted. It is the hope of the board that the subscribers will come forward on their own initiative and make the pay ments due without having to be run after and pleaded with by the '. M. C. A. officials.

CATTLE INTERESTS
 ARE REGISTERING
Present High Price of Beef Favorable to the Industry.


 W. T Armstrong one of the leading cattlemen of the Winllleman country was a business visitor in the city yes terday on his way to Texas for seV- eral weeks sojourn. MT. Armstrong has been engaged in the cattle indus try for over r years in the territory and is located on the Old Dripping Springs ranch 10 miles east of Kel- win. Just recently he has shipped to the Salt River valley 1700 head oI feeders which brought in the neigh borhood of S40.OOO. The shipment con sisted mostly of two and three year olds.
 Formerly the cattle were driven overland to Globe but now the most of them in that section are sent here for fattening and then marketed in California. The cattle industry is good says MT. Armstrong. and has been good paying investment for several years. The outlook for it is still fav- orable and as long as yearli1gs will bring S15 to SIG per head, two year olds SIS and three year olds $2O to S22 per head and feed fair as it has been there will continue to be pros perity for the cattle men of the ter ritory.
 Arizona is one of the best breeding sections in the country says Mir. Arm strong and he has been in several states in the same business. The in crease here is more rapid and earlier than anywhere in the United States. Mr. Armstrong is a Texan by birth but he is well satisfied with Arizona as place to accumulate money. The Dripping Springs ranch is watered by springs up in the mountains piped down to large tanks at considerable expense. and has thereby q never fail ing water supply. In the roundup sea son about thirteen men are kept busy there but at present only seven are needed. the most of the stock having been cared for. Feed is good farther back in the mountains but is getting dry in the open places. The vicinity Of Old Dripping Springs has always been a quiet region and there are few traditions or wild tales of Indian or other bloody troubles for it was not in the stretch of country over which they passed in an early day. Several well to do cattlemen though not many because the ranges will not justify heavy feeding, are well cOntented with the care of their ranches there as long as beef remains at the present high figures. Naturally they look to day when the country will support a much larger population as the mountains are mineralized and there are a num- Der of properties which give promise of some day being good mines if the right people get in and develop them. Just at present says MT. Armstrong things are a little quiet in that line MT. Armstrong was formerly the sher- if ot Cila county.

quently does so. The principle of alb
stract justice (even in our thoughts)
is not an easy one to follow, where
our own feelings or vanities are con-
cerned: but it is, at the same time,
a fact that it's absence serves to make
most social likes and dislikes Of no
sort of value. The woman who can
say of another from her heart, Il do
not think she has behaved very po-
litely to me, and I am consequently
not disposed to like her; but believe
her to be a good and nice woman"
has shown herself to be superior to
one of her sex's commonest weakness
es. But, alas! the women, or men
either, who can do this sort of thing
are very rare indeed. Unfortunately,
most Of us have feeling, often I'M
acknowledged to ourselves, that we
can "get even" for petty Sights by
gossip or making more or less unkind
remarks about our friends.

open SHOP IS the :.
bULWARk OF LOW WAGES
That is Why the Low Wage AID
vocates Oppose the Union
Shop. ~.

do you know what it means when
you get your money for week or for
a month?
1T means that you have sold piece
of your life, and that you have In
your pocket the price paid ;. for it.
Working for weekly or monthly wages
we deceive ourselves about the pre-.
sent and the future. We look forward
to that some day when we are going
to do better, when we are going to
work ourselves, when this temporary
salary business will be ended. :,
But that some day doesn't come
| for many of us. It comes for very
few. And old age comes for all Of
us.
IF you don't realize. it now, men
and women on salaries, you will real
lie with old age the fact that the man
who is selling his life piece by piece
ought to THINK pretty seriously aboRt
! it. 49,.
what is your life but few weeks
and the months and years? If you
were selling your body one piece at a
time-s10 apiece for your toes and
fingers, $40 an inch for the foot, anl
SO on-you would worry. You would
say to yourself: What! Four toes
and two fingers gone already, and I've
spent all the money that I got for
them. They are gone forever and I've
got nothing to show for the sale.
What shall I do when my legs and my
arms are sold? Imust' see to 1t that
| I get the best possible bargain; at
least that I get some kind Of indepen-
dence and safety In return for the
body that I am selling
| This may seem a forced COMPARE
son. But you are selling your life
piece by piece. You are selling your
youth and vitality, which you cannot
renew. An old man or. woman with
energy gone, vitality spent, living in
a world that makes no provision for
old men and women, is as sad and
helpless as a man might be who had
sold arms and legs, fingers and toes
one al a time. u
Don't deceive yourself about the
reality of life. Don't forget that your
existence, your future happiness, the
possibility of manly or wonanly inde-
pendence, depend upon the earnest
ness with which you work now, on
your realization of the truth that you
are selling your life piece by piece.
Is it putting it too Unexpectedly 10
say that the man or woman who
works for too low a wage is commit
ting a most serious kind of suicide?
It is sad to watch the consumptive
fading away through the insidious
ravages Of that hopeless disease. But
it is hardly less sad TO rthe man or
woman of mind and heart to watch
the worker wearing away his or her
life for the poor pittance allowed by
the unlicensed employer.
The "open shop is the bulwark of
low wages and low wages is a species
of suicide.

Cook, One Day for Three.
Recently when I had sickness in the
family and had neither nurse nor cook
nor help of any kind, I found it i'm
possible to wait on the sick and pre-
pare the meals with any degree Of
regularity for the rest Of us. I pre-
pared enough Of several wholesome
things to last for three. or four days.
I got a large soup bone and made
several gallons of rich beef stock, and
varied it each time by the addition
of different seasonings, curry powder,
onion celery seed, tomatoes, making
each time new soup.
I also made two gallons of gelatin,
divided it into different vessels and
Favored with lemon, pineapple and
vanilla, and these, with soft boiled
eggs, made a nourishing and palatable
diet for both sick and well.

little salt only. Make hot, but do not
let boil. Serve with fingers of toast.

"The same spirit that makes the
savage bedeck himself with paint and
feathers makes the rich man load his
wife and daughters with diamonds
and silks and surround them with idle
and superf1uous servants" So de-
declares Miss Sophonisba Brecken-
ridge, assistant dean of the women's
department of the University of Chi
cago. Aye, and the spirit which
prompts the rich man to sit down at
Lucullian feasts and make light Of the
enforced idleness and distress of his
less fortunate brother, is the same that
prompts the savage to satisfy the
cravings for his hunger with the flesh
of fallen warning tribesman.
What spectacle we have here, to
be sure. There they sat- those mem
bers of the Manufacturers association.
There were music, lights and flowers
in abundance. Costliest silverware,
beautiful linen, and finest cut glass
bedecked the tables. Nero himself
might have been banqueting his fell
low voluptuaries. Let us feast and
drink and be merry, for we have no
need to wot of the impoverished con-
dition Of the city's idle workingmen
whose family might crave even so
much as a crust Of the bread which
we will disdain in the light of greater
delicacies." 1t was something of this
spirit which seemed to possess these
feasting captains of industry and it
may be added that it was with some
thing of the same feeling that Nero
sat and watched Rome burn and the
populace perish.

The HABIT OF JUDGING PEOPLE.

THE HABIT OF JUDGING PEOPLE.
One of the cOmmonest of human
ity's petty weaknesses is that Of judg-
ing people entirely by their conduct
to ourselves. This habit has some
times very confusing effect. For
instance, we hear Mrs. A. talking of
Mrs. B. with great scorn. She lis
not a lady" Mrs. A. would not know
her for anything; always tries to
keep clear of such people, though,
unfortunately, society is becoming
more and more crowded with them"
and so on. One day, Mrs B. calls IN
Mrs. A, thing she had before neg
lected to do (Which neglect had been
the cause Of all the trouble), and we
now hear that Mrs. B. is charming, a
sweet woman, the best OF companions
and thorough lady. Mrs. A. did not
mean to be guilty of misrepresenta-
ton, far less Of untruthfulness on the
subject; but she had allowed the pet
ty slight of the other lady's not call
ing on her to become such a burning
grievance that it ended in warping
her own mind to the distortion IF
facts. Mrs BIS eventual politeness
C1ldI6Cu Luc 1OCuS l1lIOuSu WIlCI lIC
other regarded her, and now she
could not do or be anything that was
not right.
1t is, of course, natural to be af-
fected by other peoples conduct to-
ward us; it would be unnatural to
wish to make friends with those who
obviously do not like us; but to make
our opinion of other peoples moral
and mental qualities dependent on
their social attitude toward ourselves
is the paltriest and poorest Of judg-
ments-in fact, it is not a judgment
at all, but a mere prejudice. 1t is
the same sort of mental attitude which
causes people to be guilty of one Of the
commonest sorts Of infidelity to
friendship-that of indulging in gen.
eral abuse of a former friend because
some purely personal feeling has
weakened the friendship. The fact
that Glare is not so gushingly friendly
toward Ethel since her marriage is
no sufficient reason. that the latter

THE CON GAME.

The cheerful bull con merchant,
AS he journeys on his way,
Is the one who gathers favors
AS the farmer gathers hay.
And never in his travels
Is he lacking for a friend;
He drops a bit of barney
And he draws a dividend.
No matter where he wanders,
The results are ju=t the same;
He always finds a victim
Who tumbles for his game.
And whether male or female,
Or whether old or young,
They sip as if 'twere nectar,
The honey from his tongue.
There isn't any danger
Of making it too strong,
Because in that direction
He never can go wrong.
He finds no sort Of trouble
Encountered on that score;
The one who gets the package
Is always out for more.
There's nothing so effective,
There's nothing quite so strong,
AS good old healthy coming
To boost a thing along.
1t 'cinches the receiver
If handed to him right,
And makes the giver solid
For anything in sight.
