INCREASE OF BRITISH
 INcoRPoRATED COMPANIES.

According to a report recently issued by the British government, the total number of companies registered in the United Kingdom during the year lso9 was 6373. Of these. 5S33 were regis tered in England, Al in Scotland and 126 in Ireland.
 This total is the largest since the companies act of 1862 came into force, exceeding by more than 1000 the mum
 Der registered in 1907, in which year the previous high water mark of com many registration had been reached.
 this increase in numbers still con times. as during the first six months of 1910 there have been registered Tn England and Wales alone no less than 3744 companies with a total nominal capital of s634. .O6S, S36. The total nom inaI capital of the companies registered increased from $50S.263,04S in 1908 to | S6S9243.S35 in 1909, a difference or lS1SO.9SO, ,7S9, due partly 10 the increase in the number of companies and partly to the average nominal capital of the coupanies registered Tn the United
 Kingdom, being $10S,14S, as compared
 with s1O1.165 in 1908. The increase of ! the average nominal capital is caused
 by the registrations in England and | Wales only, that for Scotland and Ire land having materially decreased. | According to tables given in the re- port it appears that the most notable | increase in number has occurred among | conpanies of small capital, and that | the rate of increase is greater among the companies of smallest capital | These facts go to show that the small
 traders of Great Britain and Ireland are more and more availing themselves of 1 the advantages of operating under | joint stock corporations with limited 1 liability.5Consular Report.

"Throwing the Hooks Into Marieopa

"Throwing the Hooks Into Marieopa."
 The constitutional convention has already accomplished one thing of his torical interest. It has firmly fixed in the American language a new phrase: "To throw the hooks" This phrase, heard more or less frequently of late. appears to have had a strictly territorial origin-it is Arizona En- glish. Like all slang terms that take the place of accepted English because of the difficulty of making the ordi- nary vocabulary convey tersely ones meaning, this phrase is somewhat dlt- ficult to define It's meaning is to overthrow, and defeat, and circum- vent. and outwit-and it also means, if we understood it, to combine with defeat a strong measure of punishment and humiliation and suprise. To throw the hooks into" one. then, is not only to beat him, but to leave him convinced that you not only in tended to beat him in a savage spirit, but to do it good and plenty" and make him as sore as possible. The boasts of sundry delegates from out side counties: We will throw the hooks into MaricOpa,' was made good in the defeat of the Hon. Alfred Franklin, this county's candidate for the presidency of the constitutional convention.
 Just why there should crop up in every territorial convention, in every legislature, and in every gathering in which all parts of the territoriy are represented, a desire to throw the hooks into Maricopa," is one of the phases of territorial politics that the average resident of Maricopa county cannot understand. The people of this county are intelligent and progressive, broad, and liberal. AS to other sec tions of the territory they have no feeling whatsoever of i'll feeling, envy, or jealousy. On the contrary, the people of Maricopa county are proud of all sections of Arizona and are glad at all times to manifest this good feeling. Phoenix is pre- eminent ly the" city of the territory. It is the commercial hub of Arizona. Mari copa county is the largest in popula- ton. and second on the tax roll. It would be natural to expect that, nor mally, this county would have the warm friendship of all the other coun- ties. But, no matter what denials are made, and no matter what efforts may be made to conceal the fact, 1t is undeniable that there is in the ter ritory-or in various sections, at least-a feeling of i'll will for this county.
 As we have said, this feeling shows up at all gatherings that are represen- tative of the territory. It is not con- fined to the ranks of the democrats. It is found among republicans, more or less. We had occasion to refer to it more than once in the late cam- paign.
 Why the desire prevails to throw the hooks into Mariocpa" we do not pretend to explain. We only chroni- cle the fact, -regrettable as it is.

MONEY AND EARNINGS.

Feuds of this nature, though too freduent in the country, are very fatal to the ordinary people, who are so used to be dazzled with riches that they pay as much difference to the understanding of a man of es- tate as of a man of learning; and are very hardly brought to regard any truth, how important soever 1t may be- that is preached to them, when they know there are several men of five hundred year who do not believe it.-Joseph Addison.

How the Gorilla Wake.

The gorilla has not only a crouching
habit, but he walks on all four of his
legs and has the motion Of most quad
rupeds, using his right arm and left
leg at the same time, and alternates
with the left arm and right leg. 1t is
not exactly walk or trot, but a
kind Of ambling gait, while the chin
panzee uses his arms as crutches, but
lifts one foot from the ground a little
in advance OF the other. He does not
place the palm Of the hand on the
ground, but uses the back of the fin
gers from the second joint.
