SAD INTELLIGENCE.

The sad information was received
here on Monday afternoon that R. l..
Harper of Goldfield, New, was dead.
A few hours before the announce
ment was received, the brothers here
had received a telegram saying that
his condition was critical and that he
would probably not live through the
day. Both announcements came as a
severe shock, as it was not known
that Mr.. Harper was sick and his
illness was of only few days dura-
ton. Pneumonia was the cause OF
death Deceased was manager of the
Goldfield Consolidated Water COM
pany, and was one of the most pop
ular business men in that great camp.
AS the head of one of the biggest
corporations in Nevada, he had the
respect and esteem of everybody with
whom he Icame in contact. Mr.. Har-
per's wife is resident OF Denver.
and she left her home Sunday for
Goldfield. She will be notified here
of the death of her husband, and will
remain here until the brothers go to
Goldfield and return with the body.
Interment will be in Denver.
The brothers above spoken of have
conducted a printing establishment
here for several years, with which
Truth has sustained extensive bust
ness relations for some time. by
their upright department and strict
attention to business they have made

ART IN AMERICA.

Columbia University has made
notable addition to her Faculty o,
Fine Arts. She has appointed Ken
yon Cox professor of painting, Daniel
c. French professor of sculpture, and
John La Fargo professor OF the dec
orative arts. The move is significant;
it indicates a recognition of the i'm
portance of the esthetic in we'll
rounded education. Foreigners, in
commenting upon our college curri-
cula, often speak OF the prepondcr-
ance Of utility over beauty. They
declare that our university education
aims at the production of efficient
brokers and bridge builders. The
leading educators of our country do
nevertheless appreciate the import
ance of art, and are usually founI
ready and eager to do what they are
able to do for art.

SPURRING ON THE INDIVID-
UAL.

In national appeal, designed to
stay the progress of Socialism, Lord
Balfour observes: "The essential
condition for progress of commun-
ity is that the incentive to effort on
the part of its individuals shall be of
the strongest possible"
Four-fftks of the land in England
is owned by about one-quarter of one
per cent of the population. The aver
age holding of each peer is about
$4,000 acres, grading from I42,564
acres for duke to I4,I52 acres for
baron. Composing the Upper House
of Pertinent, the noble landlords
have consistently defeated every i'm
portant proposal for land reform.
The land pays no taxes to speak OF,
and Improvements, paid for by the
country under the able management
of the House of Lords, have been
carefully charged up TO the tenants.
Arthur Arnold says that the land
owning Lords mulcted the railways
of England in no less sum than
fifty million pounds by exacting ex-
tortionate right-of-way prices before
permitting railway bills to pass.
Altogether, it seems to us that here
is not just condition which shout,
furnish the strongest possible incen-
tive to effort on the part of England's
thirty-odd million notwithstanding
individuals.
If Lord Bafour's theory is sound
the outlook for British progress is
rather poor.

Not Like the Eden Variety.

Over near Grand Junction there is
an apple orchard. There are several
apple orchards, and every one of
them is paying good money. But
this particular orchard is, in our
humble judgment, the most profitable
one ever heard of. The gross yield
this year from one acre of that or
chard, containing no trees, was $SI 81
per tree, or shade less than $4,000
for the acre. When such is the in

Gore by the Gallon.

While playing at the Auditorium
Wednesday evening, Will Morrell
met with quite little accident and
the loss of a gallon or two of the
blue blood that flows in his veins.
A ball thrown to him hit the arc

piece of which struck his left wrist,

What the Editors of the Rural Dis
tricts Have to Say Regarding

Other Peoples Boys.

Some people think it a mystery
that Notwithstanding good advice
their boys grow up to be wild and
reckless young men. If these boys
were taught from infancy that home
was the proper place for them after
dark, rather than proving around
the streets, annoying we'll and sick
people alike, much of this mystery
might be expla ned. and young men
with better moral character and more
intelligent minds would be the re-
suit. Parents need not expect pure
morals in boy that prowls the streets
at night, even if he does go to Sum
day school.-Tremont Times.
