Alfred Willis Middleton was born in Mendocino county, California, forty-one years ago. Some years ago, he married the widow of MT. Jennings, who bore him two children, both of tender age. Mrs. Middleton had four children by her former marriage, the eldest of which is boy about IS years of age.
 Besides his widow and children, MT. Middleton leaves an aged mother, four brothers, Eugene, Leroy, Henry and Clifton Middleton, all of whom reside in Globe except Henry, who lives in Washington state; and three sisters, Mrs. Sbute, Mrs. Allison and Mrs. 1T. McMillen.
 Leroy Middleton will arrive tonight from Tucson, having missed the train yesterday. The funeral will be held at clock Sunday afternoon from the home of c. NJ. Allison, in Cedar street, whither the body, prepared for inter- ment yesterday by F. l.. Jones, was taken yesterday at I O clock The body shows no mark of violence, save a bruise about the chest where the rope was wound to take it out of the we'll, and slight scratch on the thumb of the left hand.
 News of the death of Willis Middle ton was received in Globe with pro- found and general sorrow, for the rancher was held in high esteem here, not only because he was related to some of the best people of this community, but because of his lovable character and kindly disposition.
 "I don't think can remember hav- ing once seen Willis Middleton out of temper, said one of the old residents of Globe yesterday. Everybody who knew him liked him, for he was one of the best men that ever liyed.'

Mans Best Business
 Asset is Reputatior
est. Louis Republic.)

A good reputation is mans best trademark. Reputation is not what man thinks of himself, but what others think of him.
 A man s estimate of himself isn t apt to pass current.
 Most men would put the value far too high.
 Some few would put it too low.
 Generally the estimate is in inverse ratio to the value.
 An appropriated public may be trust. cd to strike just level.
 When it is announced that a new muscle-working device has been invent. ed the world is skeptical
 If 1t is stated that Edison is the in. ventor, skepticism is changed to faith.
 In the reputation of the Wizard of Menlo the public puts its trust.
 N. P. Willis, who is scarcely remem- bered by a succeeding generation, con sidered himself the greatest American poet.
 That was Willis's estimate.
 Bryant, Longfellow and Holmes set themselves upon no pedestal, but their reputations were and are secure.
 They rest upon the estimate of the public.
 We can build, but we cannot dictate reputation.
 A prominent western advertiser was once asked what be considered the most essential element in advertising. His re- ply was: Reputationl" "A page ad. vertisement, said he, "is of little val ue unless the man making the announce ment has reputation to back it up."
 Reputation multiplies the value of printers ink.
 When, after lapse of fifteen years, 1t was announced that Verdi had writ ten new opera, the musical world was on the "tiptoe of expectancy
 It was not the title of the opera, nor the Shakesperean theme, nor any star cast that aroused public interest.
 Ii was Verdi.
 "Rigoletto," "Trovatore. "Trayi. ata," and "Aida" had established his reputation.
 "Otello s" reception was cordial as a natural consequence.
 The man in whom the public puts its trust is the man who points the way to great events.
 Reputation is worth more than riches.
 Wealth in the hands of one who is becomes curse. "l have lost my reputation, and what remains is bestiall" cries Cassie.
 He who is without reputation is like rudderless ship without sail. A tree of q century's growth can be felled in an hour. So with reputationl Difficult to at | tam, priceless to possess, it must be jealously guarded.
 The public is hard to win, but easy l so lose.
 A reputation is too valuable an asset | 10 be sacrificed to greed.
 It is SO valuable that it should be the | iim of every man to attain.

.BRISTOW AS A FIGHTER.
Adjournment Puts an End to an
Encounter With Aldrich.

Washington. June 25.-Duriug the
discussion of the shoe schedule in the
senate last night Mr.. BristOw of Kan
sas had a clash with Mr.. Aldrich in
which he charged Aldrich with bad
faith. The leather schedule had been
adopted and Mr.. Aldrich made the
point that Bristow's amendment put
ting leather on the free list was not in
order. Bristow insisted that his amend
ment was in order and demanded a roll
call. Meanwhile Aldrich made a. mo-
ton that the amendment lie upon the
table and this motion was adopted.
A wrangle over the parliamentary
status of the amendment followed in
which Aldrich attempted to take Bris-
tow from the floor. Bristow angrily in
formed the Rhode Island senator that
he did not intend to permit him to Sc
cure the floor until he was ready to
yield it. AS Bristow was endeavoring
to secure a ruling from the chair on
his contention that his amendment was
in order. the hands of the clock pointed
to and under the order of business
the senate adjourned.
