f GAY, GIDDY AND NICE. White gloves have returned to favor lor morning as well as evening1 wear. Real lace veils, of the large old fashioned size which delighted our grandmothers, are coming into stylo again. The "round table shirt," which is cut out of goods five yards wide, and has no seam, is at present the most popular one. Nothing surpasses this in fit. The waist trimming of a recently imported dress exactly resembles the wings of butterflies, as though one of these creatures was perched on each i shoulder. "White kid and suede Eailor hats are new this season, but straw takes the lead, with quills for trimming, while more fancy sailor has roses around the crown and under the brim. A pretty idea for a bridesmaid's cos tume is a gown of soft white silk with pale green sash and shoulder cape of white lace; large white leghorn hat trimmed with yellow tea roses and green foliage. Clear white muslin is used for dresses which are worn over colored silk. The skirt is of three deep flounces with wide hems and colored ribbon run in the hems. "Waist of silk, draped over with muslin, and abroad soft sash of the color at the waist. ARIZONA. LADIES OF EUROPE. Arizona stands at the threshold ft era of wouderfnl social and industrial de velopment. There can't be a doubt about the fact. The dawn for which she ha: waitea so long is breaking at last. There is every promise of a day of great pros perity and permanent upbuilding just be fore her. The impulse of a new and euer gizing hope is visible everywhere among her people, while the cumulative effect of many things,, which made but small im pression as they transpired singly, is now commanding for her a full share of atten tion and interest abroad ainontr home 1 seekers and capitalists, i A lively competition has sprung up for the possession of things which have hereto lore gone a-begging for ownership. There is a scramble for franchises. Nothing more surely indicates a great industrial awaken mgthan this. The rates of interest are falling to moderate figures. Nothing more surely indicates confidence and competition among the money lenders than this. Arizona has reached that cliaiacticer period which every western state has ex perienced sometime in its history when after long and weary struggle and doubt with each side of the balance first up and then down, the clouds of despondency have suddenly rolled away, and a sunburst LADr Somerset has been reelected i of energizing hope has thrilled the droop .? tw, j I inS sPilita of the PeoPle t0 greater and The emneror of Russia has nurchased 1 braver endear before. for 500 throue-h agents in Copenhagen ; For the lasfc twelve years the subsidence two rare antique chests, one dated 1610, ! of the great Tombstone boom and the com both curiousry carved. pletion of two transcontinental lines of Mies Florrie Bryak, an English railroad across her territory Arizona has ii t . . : r.. i iauy, recemiy ueuume uiu wuc ui tuu rather droUDed out of nublic attention but in that time she has been quietly ac , cumulating a fund of substantial wealth and a force of moral character which Maharajah of Patisla, in the Punjaub, having previous to the nuptial cere mony been received as a member of the Sikh religious order. Ox the afternoon of her release from jail, the dowager duchess of Suther land was waited on by a deputation of friends, who presented, through her secretary, 250, the amount of her fine, together with a piece of silver plate. Queen Victoria has just passed her seven ty-f ourth birthday. Princess May, who will probably be queen herself someday, has just celebrated her twenty-sixth birthday. Her majesty sent, as a gift, an exquisite Yorkist rose, in white enamel and gold, a piece of ro mantic sentiment which was quite charming. PEOPLE ACROSS THE SEAS. The German emperor alone has a right to have a coach and six in Berlin. The prince of Wales has presented Mme. Adelina Patti with a large por trait of himself, bearing his signature. Lord Lorne receives six thousand dollars a year as governor and con stable of Winsdor castle. Absolutely his only duty in this sinecure is to sign ft receipt for his salary every quarter. Baroness Helene Heden, aged seventy-nine years.was sent to the Vienna workhouse as a vagrant last week, up on her avowment that her relations would not support her. She is the widow of a millionaire and mother of the privy councillor, Baron Reden. The heir to the throne of Austria, accompanied by a prince and two counts, will be in this country early in the autumn. He is Archduke Francis Ferdinand d'Este. He is a young un married man, and one story has it that he is traveling around the earth in search of a wife. j fi STATED IN FIGURES. There are now about 18,000,000 sheep in New Zealand. - The Bank of England has reduced the discount rate from 4 per cent, to 3 per cent. Gutta percha was first indroduced into Europe from Malaga in 1852. The annual consumption now amounts to 4,000,000 pounds. The largest yield of oranges in Pomona, Cal., this year was from a grove of trees over 17 years old. Six acres yielded 3,500 boxes. Two trees .yielded 35 boxes. The revenue returns of New South Wales for May show a decrease of 120, 000 as compared with May, 1892. Cus tom returns fell off 50,000, and rail way receipts 39,000. Pampas grass is said to cover an area of 1.500,000 square miles in South America. It was first grown for market in California in 1872, and in 1890 a 28 acre ranch yielded 200,000 plumes. qualify her now to rise up and take her ; destiny in her own hands. The population of Arizona in Mexican This is a mistake of great importance from the moral point of view. There is but one considerable center of Mexican population m the territory, the city of Tucson, and even there it is not by any means at pres i ent the predominating element. It think it is certain that Arizona has not to-day nearly so large a Mexican population as Colorado and not above one-tenth as much as New Mexico. "Fitz-Mac," in Den ver News. PRODUCTIONS. Being in the latitude of Persia, with Similar cil mate, it is not unreasonable to infer that there should be a close relation in productions. Of the cereals, all do equally well. On the alluvium along the river, from 40 to 60 bushels of wheat per acre can be raised, and proportionately of oats and bar ley. Corn can be grown it planted very early or very late. Sorghum and the true cane grow .very luxuiiantly. Cotten becomes a perennial, plants in Yuma having grown from one seeding twelve years in succession. The lint maybe gathered con tinually from June to January. The castor bean grows into miniature trees, and are as long lived as many of the ornamental trees of more northern latitudes. Hemp is indigenous along the Colorado river, its fiber being of good quality. Ramie will do equalty well as hemp, and the time will come when its cultivation will become an important in dustry. The same may be said of flax and tobacco . It is in the realm of the goddess Pomona where the infinite riches of this country -vill be found. All the citru3 fruits are at home in Yuma. The orange, the lennn and the lime make fragrant with blossom and fruit all the days of the year, and such oranges, lemons and limes as grow no where else in the United States. Mexico and the islands of the sea do not produce finer oranges; in size; flavor and color, they are simply perfect. Thelemoisare equals of Sicily, than which none finer grow. The lime is as large, juicy and purely acid as those of Acapulco, Mexico, from whence those for the California market largety come. The date grows as rapidly and health? as in Per sia or Arabia, and will in time become an .inport ant tree for its fruit and ornamental purposes. The long-lived olive is at homo here, and will add its contingent of oil and pickles to the wealth of the land. From April to December the fig may be gathered in perfection from the tree All the pit ted fruits whose abitat is Persia grow with an abandonment of grace and beauty -unknown else where. What shall we say of the endless grap'e family that ripen here more than a month in advance of any locality. Morocco, Spain, France nor Hungary, which have sent us their finest varieties, cannot surpass Yuma. For productiveness, size and flavor, our grapes arc unexcelled. The list of production .already .given, slthough long, might be extended indefinitely, for every-' thing native to the semi-tropics inay be added. This, however, is not nccessaiy, for in those al ready mentioned are noted possibilities of luxury and wealth for those who settie in this virgin country. MEN OF MIGHT AND MEANS. Kate Field says that Edwin Booth cast a vote for Abraham Lincoln for president, but never voted before that occasion or after. Gov. Northex, of Georgia, is an old school-teacher, and the ruling passion urges him to spend a good part of his time attending school institutes and commencements. Dr. G. C. Grandson, a colored man. and late president of Bennett college, Greensboro, N. C, is described as one of the foremost orators not only of his race, but of the day. He has a dash of Indian blood in him. I The newly elected president of the ' Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railroad is but forty-one years of age. The re sponsibility thus placed upon this young man may be in a measure real- j ized, when it is known that the Santa ; Fe has a capital of four hundred mil lion dollars and employs twenty-five thousand men. BRIGHT RAYS OF LIGHT. Pride is hard to master. The lazier a man is, the more h claims to be sick. A lie can run fast, but the feet of truth never slip. Whenever love talks to us, it speaks our mother tongue. Give some people money enough, and they will vex themselves to death. It is hard for a fool to understand why he is seldom overtaken by anyone going his way. Ram's Horn. K. E. L. Robinson, he of the sloop Examiner notoriety, now re ported as meeting with death at t'hc hands of "murderous and can nibalistic savages" on the island of Tiburon, must furnish us with positive proofs of his death before we shall turn our column rules in mourning for his untimely end.

After you get angry and stop your paper says an exchange, just poKeyour nnger into water, pull it out and look for the hole. Then 3'ou will know how sadly you are missed. A man who thinks a paper cannot thrive without his support ought to go off and stay a while.

You will find things you cannot endorse in every paper. Even the Bible is rather plain and hits some hard raps.
