Crops ON THE MUDDY. = The farms
down on the Muddy promise to reward
the industry of their owners with boun-
tiful yields this year. Parties who ar
rived from that section yesterday after
noon say that vegetation is far advanced
and every field looks we'll. The settlers
request us to say that all looking for
land to cultivate will be warmly welcomed
on the Muddy, but that stock men can
find better ranges in other sections Of the
country. The Muddy farmers have been
annoyed considerably by herds getting
into their fields, and they think the
ranges are wide enough for the cattle
raisers to go where there stock will do
no damage.
A Jo-AK.-A fellow was sent from one
drug store TO another, the other day, TO

ceeded, with much confidence, to put up
the compound. He found ont the joke
when the last ingredient was poured
into the bottle-lke the report of PTS

the bewldered clerk standing with the
neck of the bottle in his hand and COW

Bishop 4 Lee, the attending surgeons,
say the wound is not dangerous. The
mans name is Hiram Burgess, miner
of Silver Belt district. He had been here
as q witness in the Raymond Hermes
case, and was starting home when the
/ accident occurred.
WALLAPAI-The news from Wallapai
continues anything but encouraging, and
the only movement between here and
there we notice is of miners returning
. to this district. There is no capital
, there, aud consequently no employment
for laboring men But this should not
lead to the conclusion that Wallapai is q
4 failure as mineral district; we have not
; yet conversed with any one from that
/ section who has doubts about the rich.
