Set a TiiHef lo Cntdi TIi i' President Diaz, of Mexico, is credited with the invention of an ingenius method of ridding tlie country of bandits, includ ing train robbers, which is work ing like a charm. A desperado of more than common intelli gence was captured about two years ago, and tlie President interviewed him in prison sev eral times. ' The bandit tpld him that want of occupation was at the root of the whole trouble. The President said : "I will test you. You shall be liberated, and I will, nppoint. you Chief of Police in your na tive district. You are to guard an trains, anct protect- passen-j zp s iii nit; way sumons. i ou can appoint your own subordi nates from your followers. You . i. 1 X will be rewarded for maintain ing good "drder in your district, and held responsible for all law less acts by. whomsoever com mitted." There has not been a robbery in that district (which was . for merly a dangerous one for tou rists to pass through) since that appointment was made. The system has been extended, and now the solitary uniformed po liceman on the platform of nearly eveiy small station in Mexico is an ex-robber. He is known and respected a-s a su perior person by the peons and loafers, who know that lie will permit no petty thieving. He, in turn,' knows that he is close ly watched by a superior offi cer who is in the employ of the chief ex-bandit. - These facts are given upon the authority of a prominent Philadelphian who recently re turned from Mexico, where he had spent several months in in vestigating the industrial con ditions of that country. We believe that the statement here made is true ; and it is certain ly a very curious and interest ing solution of a serious prob lem. Philadelphia Record. If iM-klen'M "Arnica, Ssilvo.

United States Senate by Mr. Chester Ashley and Mi. Ambrose II. Sevier. Mr. Chester Ashley, a New Enjjlander bv birth, always pronounced tlie ! name of tlie State phonetically, a ii is spelled "Ar-kan-saw." Mr. Sevier, a Tenuesseoan, " the grand-nephew of Colonel John Sevier, th'eV hero of King's Mountain aim the Governor of the ''State f Franklin," as Tennessee was then - called, - al ways gave to the. last syi'abh" f . the name el" Us ..elo::' e State the prouuuoi ui i n in -t'r-jad "a, ".as if it were spclieu "Ar-kan-saw." At that time Mr. Dallas was Vice-IVesident and he made one of the most courtly presiding officers the Senate ever had. Mr.- Dallas, in addressing Mr. Ashley, al ways said, "the Senator from Ar-kan-sas," while Mr. Sevier was always "the Senator from Ar-kah-saw. The opinions of the Arkansas people 'differed on this subject, as did til o opinions of the Sena tors. Finally to settle the di -imitation, the GenerahAssembly of IS. Si appointed a learned and able, committee to investigate the whole subject. This ' com mittee made a critical and ex h ausive exajni n ation , and . based upon the report of this committee, the General 'Assrm- bly imruiim0uslv adapted tin , ' " following resolution : 'Concurrent resolution de claring the proper pronuncia tion of the name of the State of Arkansas : Whereas, confusion of prac tice has arisen in the pronunci ation of the name of our State, and it is deemed important that the true 'pronunciation should be determined for use " in oral official proceeings ; and. "Whereas, the .matter has been thoroughly investigated by the State Historical Society of Little Rock, which have agreed upon the correct pro nunciatoii as derived from his tory: and the earlv use of the American immigrants : be it, therefore, "Resolved by both houses of the General Assembly, That the only true pronunciation of the name of the State, in the opin ion of this body, 'is that, receiv ed bv the French from the na tive Indians, and committed to writings in the French word representing ; the sound, and that it should be pronounced in three syllable, with the final 's' silent, the 'a' in each syllable, with the Italian sound, .and tlie accent on the first and last , syl lables being the pronunciation formerly universally and now still most commonly '-used, and that the pronunciation with the accent on the second syllable, with the sound of 'a' in 'man and the sounding of the termi nal 's' is an innovation to be discouraged."

TZ FILL THAT AVILL ' The South's Great Soldier. Dr. K. 1. Andrews, the dis tinguished president of Hrown Uni ver.dty, is r e c o g n : e d throughout the vlength and breadth of this country as a bold. original and independent think er. His r M-ent victory over the trustee, of Brown Univerity in the fight which was made upon him because of his zealous ; vhampinn-diip of bine'tallism eonsti'fulc one of the jn-t sig nal triumphs which free thought has achieved during the present generation. This reference to Dr. An drnvs h made for t-ho purpo i i i ot calling attention to tlie esti nr t" which he places upon the Miiii "v g,,iiiiv of (J.-n-'ral i.i . In couiiu ; i i 1 ; . u aaa tile leading figures of tlie hie war between the states Dr. Andrews, in a public .address delivered in Chicago on last Monday, declared that General Lee was not only the greatest soldier which the wiir produced, but that, in many phases of his genius, he was the greatest sol dier of modern limes. As Dr. Andrews served in the union army, this candid expression of opinion in regard to the milita ry skill and prowess of the south's great soldier cannot fail to awak'Mrdeep interest in both sections. Speaking first of the religious side of (l"iieral dz-e's character, Dr. Andrew de clared that he' had the faith of the crusader, and that .-hi let ters in themselves constituted a guide to holiness. lie further more observed that profane lan- guage never pa-ed through General Lee's lips, and that the habit ofimbibing strong d rink, so common to soldiers, was something in which he never indulged. Proceeding ' from tiiis point Dr. Andrews said: I fail to ii ikI in the books any such masterful generalship as this hero showed, holding that slim, gray line, half starved, with no prospect of additions, and fighting when his army was too hungry to stand and the rifles were only tisefui a clubs. His courag" was sublime. He va as great as Gustavo- Adol plius, or Napoleon, or Welling ton; or Yon Moltke. Hiscau-e was not the lot cau-e so much as is suspected. All that was good in his cau-e has been grafted into our laws and our constitution. The doctrine of states'- rights as now interpre ted by the supreme court is in (,x;K.t' il(.COrdanee with hisclaims ,m tjM. j)(,Mt.

' li 'fore closing his tribute to !'o south's great soldier Dr. Andrews declared that the final overthrow of the confederacy was not due to the fact that General Iee was, outgeneraled, but rather to the fact. that over whelming numbers on the union side, coupled with the hardships and privations which the south ern army was compelled to suf fer, made the success of the con federacy impossible.

M l feeling engemlered by that con- flict has nassed amv : and while the south can now, with- out the least prejudice, contem plate the superb qualities of Grant and Sheridan and Han cock, it is also true that the gen- i CTOUS and Candid north can tlll- j i v ntinreciate the heroic virtues t ' - ... , i of Jackson, JJeau regard ami Lee.
