Centennial Designs.

From late number of the Philadel- phia Times America, Asia, Europe and Africa will be represented in the Main Exhibition Building by four elaborated and appropriate. designs, each fifty feet in night and forty feet wide. America is represented by Colum- bia, with the bust of Washington on her right, that of Franklin on her left, and the back ground representing the national colors and the flag of the old thirteen States Europe by female figure, with the bust of Homer on one side and that of Charlemagne on the other Africa by an Egyptian female, with busts of Rameses and Sesostris ; and Asia by female figure, with the busts of ConfuciOus and MahOmet ; also Chinese and Japanese emblems, and the flags of the countries An at tractive novelty will be 8 genuine French cafe, in which four thousand Philadelphia bloOds may at one time play the Parisian swell to their hearts content France has just made appli- cation to the Bureau of Machinery for six thousand feet additional space in Machinery Hall. Should it be granted that country will have there in all six teen thousand square feet. One-fourth of the whole space in Machinery Hall will be occupied by foreign countries and the balance by the United States. There will be three hundred more eX hibitors in this department of the Centennial than there were in the cor responding one of the Vienna Exposi- tiOn.

Artesian Wells,s

These wells are a success wherever sunk in California, and there is no doubt but they will be in ArIzona Land that was a practical desert few years ago for want of water, is now highly productive. The Bakersfield Californian of October 2S, has this item on the subject
 The second artesian well of MT Souther is now down three hundred and forty feet, with the water flowing about four inches above the surface The bottom is in clay, and the expect ation is, when the auger reaches the bottom of the stratum, water will flow with a strong pressure. Some idea of the depth of the soil. and the character of the deposit of Kern river. may be had in the fact that a pine knot Was drawn up from a depth of two hundred and eighty feet MT. Souther expects yet to find the man down there who is making the chips.

MARICOPA WELLS, November Ia. At 2:41 o'clock this afternoon. an earthquake shock was distinctly felt at this place for four seconds. The shock was sufficiently strong to cause the inhabitants to gather in twos and threes to discuss the subject. A strong westerly wind has been blowing since ten o'clock thls morning,
 YUMA, November 15.-An earth. quake shock of forty seconds dura- tion and of much greater force than those herntnforo roPurteyi, Ylsltru us q. 2:29 o'clock afternoon today. The earth trembled or rather shook ire. mendously. Clocks were stopped. In some instances chimneys were partly shattered to pieces and old adobe walls were cracked badly. Three or four small waves succeeded the first great shock at intervals of fifteen 10 twenty minutes. A severe sand storm is raging on the desert since yesterday morning. The wind is in the west and blowing gale.

Boss WEEDS FAITHFUL WIFE When Tweed was married he was a chairmaker, and the pair might have had a happy career had he remained honest. They lived in plain manner, mingled with mechanics society, and were the parents of two boys and two girls, good looking and healthy chil- dren. The era of meretricious splen- dor has come and gone like a dream.
 The girls are married. Each had a diamond wedding, and each has sunk into obscnrity and poverty. The two sons once held fine appointments in the service of the ring, but they are now only lounging around the City Hall. The mother is in widows desolation. The ill-gotten wealth k almost gone. 4 million and a half has passed into the hands of her lawyers, and her husband 'S still prisoner. 4 Seedy and cOrpulcnt old man inhabitIng a pair of rooms in Ludlow street jail, is all that is left of one who has been alderman, congressman, chairmaker and lawyer commissioner of parks, public buildings and docks, State Senator, and for seven years the auto crat of this city. The only redeem ing feature is the faithful wife, who is reducing herself to poverty in the hope of obtaining her husbands rclelse.- \. Y. Corr. Cincinnati Gazette

Tax All Property.

We hope the next Arizona legislature will enact a law to tax all property, nc matter what used for or to whom il belongs. As bearing upon the subject, we quote the following from an ex change
 The question of the taxing of church property is being discussed in Massa- chusetts. It is said there is S20,000, ,0OO worth of this sort of property in Boston alone, and all exempt from taxation. Church property, including not only churches, but schools and charitable buildings. parsonages, etc, is rapidly accommodating, and the time is not distant when the people of the State will be compelled to consider whether this class of property shall not bear its due proportion of taxation for the sup port of the government which affords no less protection to it than to that of private citizens.

PACIFIC COAST MATTERS.

SAN DIEGO, November 15.-At twen- ty-five minutes to three o'clock this afternoon, a shock of earthquake strong enough to rattle windows and alarm the people, occurred in this city lasting about thirty seconds. The vii bration was from west tO east. There was no injury done sO far as we hear, but it had the effect of turning the people on Fifth street out of their houses on the best of time
 SAN FRANCISCo, November To- Wells, Fargo & Co.'S stage was robbed about two miles from Boise City this morning, by three masked men It was robbed of Jhe treasure box and the mail bags were torn open. The box contained coin and bullion to amount of $S,0O0
 SAN FRANCISCO, November 13.-A heavy rain commenced gt two o'clock this morning. All day there has been a very strong wind and heavy showers. The overland telegraph lines are down and there is consequently no news from the east
 In consequence of the rain, the great race has been postponed until the goth of November. A large number of wis itors are in the city % see the race and feel much disappointed.
 SAN FRANCISCO, November l5.- The city was visited by sharp shoe of earthquake st ten minutes sO eight last night, which continued nearly seven seconds. The vibrations were from east to west
 It has been raining all the fore noon with no prospects of letting up.
 A. J. Bryant, president of the Pa cifc Jockey Club, says the chances are that the big race will not come off before Thanksgiving Day. It IS probably impossible to get the track in condition by Saturday even by continuous good weather. No at tempt will be made to run until the track is in perfectly good order.

Telegraph tO Grant

Two weeks ago, we noticed the completion of she telegraph to Camp Grant, and that an office would be opened as soon as an operator reached there. We should have noticed the opening last week, but with SO many things to do and think of it was omitted. On the opening, we re- ceived the following:
 CAMP GRANT. November 9.-Per- init me to extend my congratulations on the completion of the line this far.
 WARNER BUCK.
 To which we returned this:
 TUCSON, November 9.-WAREER BUCK. Camp Grant; Congratula- tions reeiprOceted. Hope Camp Grant will not long remain the end of the line, but become way station on direct eastern line not only to thou sands of places in America but ID Europe and Asia.
 We are indebted to Sergeant Voss. of the Signal Service, for accurate distances between stations from here to Grant, viz: From Camp Lowell to Iron Wstsr twenty-one miles, and this, the Sergeant informs us, IS just about t.4e distance from Tucson to that station; thence to San Pedro, eighteen miles; thence to Lime Kiln, l2 miles; thence to Two Oaks, ten miles thence to Point of Mountain, ten miles; thence to Grant, twenty-One miles; making 8 total of ninety-two miles. The travelled road IS some miles longer.
 Sergeant Voss left by stage last Saturday for Santa Fe, to assist in constructing the line from there to Fort Bsyard.

A New Version,

l would not die in spring-time,
 When worms begin to crawl, When cabbage sprouts are shooting up
 And frogs begin to squall. 'Tis then the girls are full Of charms,
 And smile upon the men, When lamb and peas are in their prime would not perish then. I would not die in summer,
 When trees are filled with fruit, And every sportsman has a gun
 The little birds to shoot. The girls then wear their sweetest dress, And half distract the men; It IS the time to sweat it out
 would not perish then. would not die in autumn,
 When new-mown hay smells sweet, And little pigs are roofing round
 For something nice to eat. Iris then the huntsman's wild hallo Is heard along the glen, And oysters gin to fatten up
 I would not perish then. would not die in winter, For one might freeze to death; When clustering Boreas sweeps around And takes away ones breath When sleigh-bells Jingle horses snort. And buck-wheat cakes are tall; In fact, this Is a right good world
 l would not die at all.

Bank of California.

This is from The Bulletins com mercial column of November ?:
 The committee appointed to take under consideration a change in the bylaws of the Bank of California made their report today, as per agree ment In view of the anticipated reOr- ganization of the bank in the course of few months, it was deemed best not to introduce any change in the form of the bylaws, leaving the new organization the privilege of making such bylaws as it may deem best The bank is making very few loans, but reports commendable promptness in the payment of debts due. IL will be remembered that it was one of the primal considerations of the Syndicate that it should succeed to the bushes, of the bank, and that object is now in process of being carried out

THE Scientific American says, to make perpetual paste-which will remain sweet for year--dissolve tea spoonful O. alumn in a quart of water to which add sufficient flour to make a thick cream. Stir in half a tea spoonful of powdered resin and half a dozen cloves, to give a nice odor. Have on the fire teacup of boiling water, pour the four mixtures into 1t, stirring well at the time. In a few minutes 1t will be of the consistency of mush. Pour it into an earthen vessel, let 1t cool lay cover on, and put it in cool place. When needed for use, take out portion snd soften it with warm water.

ALETTER from Visalia to the Bakers field California Gazette states: From the mountain regions, from thirty to forty miles northeast of this place, the report comes that the sheep are starv ing to death by the hundreds. One gentleman says he had to drive over the dead bodies of between one and two hundred at one point and thai there were many others along the road he travelled, for miles.
 There are millions of acres of the finest pasture in the world, lylng un occupied in southern Arizona. And as year by year the grazing land of California is being reduced, and the chances ofprofit in sheep raising becom- Ing less, it behooves the sheep men ot those parts to turn their faces and tiocks this way.

Why ana When we shouId be
 Thankful.

WAsHINGTOS, October 27, ls75.-A proclamation by the President of the United States of America:
 In accordance with a practise at once wise and beautiful. we have been ac. customed, as the year is drawing to a close, to devote an occasion to the humble expression of our thanks to Almighty God for the ceaseless and distinguished benefits bestowed upon us as nation, and for His mercies and protection during the closing year. Amid the rich and free enjoyment of all our advantages, we should not for. get the sources from whence they are derived and the extent of our obliga- tions to the Father of all mercies. We have full reason to renew our thanks to Almighty God for favors bestowed upon us during the past year.
 By His continuing mercy, civil and religious liberty have been maintained, peace has reigned within our borders. labor and enterprise have produced their merited rewards, and to His watchful Providence we are indebted for security from pestilence and other national calamity. Apart from the national blessings, each individual among Us has occasion to thoughtfully recall and devoutly recognize the favors and protection which he has enjoyed. Now, therefore,
 l, Ulysses $. Grant, President of the United States, do recommend that. on Thursday, the 25th day of November, the people of the United States, abstain ing from all secular pursuits and from their accustomed avocatiOns, do as semble in their respective places of worship, and, in such form as may seem most appropriate in their own hearts, offer to Almighty God their acknowl- cdgement and thanks tor His mercies, and their humble prayers for contin- uance of His Divine favOrs.
 In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
 Done at the city of Washington, this 21th day of October, in the year of our Lord 1875, and of the Independence of the United States, the one hundredth.
