THOSE who have had the time and op-
portunity TO see DR.. GOodwin's ranch,
some six miles below town, say the doc
tor struck it when he became granger.
He has about ninety acres Of fine Santa
Cruz valley land broken and cultivated.
The ground is new, just cleared OF a heavy
growth OF mesquite. The soil is not this
sticky, exhausted adobe bottom soil, but
rich dark loan which crumbles like fine
flour In the hand; like the Rillito soil, on
about soils and some may think we are a
connOiseur on soils and know all about
them. The painful fact is, we know very
little about soils, but from what little we
do know, il the different soils were being
passed around and we were left unrestrict-
Cd in our choice we should take the rich
sandy loan Of DR.. GoodwiE's ranch In
ours. The proprietor's crcp is mostly
wheat and he claims to have a growth OF
the incest wheat in Arizona. He has
a lot OF potatoes now about as large as
spring chickens egg, which he has raised
entirely without irrigation, which latter
he claims as the obstruction met with in
raising first-class potatoes in this imme-
diate vicinity. He has beautiful headed
cabbage; we had some a week ago and it
was very nice. Bis watermelons are al
ready quite large and will be ripe the last
of this month. In another year he will
have ranch that will do one good to see.
He has lots OF things which we havnr
time 10 mention now.

THE escape of the Chiricahua Indian
chief Pi-on-si-na from Deputy Sheriff
C. II. Shibell and his assistant, A. Linn,
is very notifying and unfortunate. We
are not in possession OF the exact circum-
stances OF the escape, but the general fea-
lures of the case are as follows: 1t will
be recollected that IL the account of the
fight between the sons Of Cachise and the
rebelIous Chiricahua Indians, which lately
took place and so changed the features of
the removal, Pi-on-si-na, about the worst
Indian on the reservation and the one
who led the attack on Rogers place, was
reported MORALLY wounded and perhaps
dead. He was wounded but not dead,
and Agent Clum learning Of this sent out
some of his effective San Carlos Indian
police who quickly found and arrested
Pi-On-si-na, thus showing how TO do
thing in contra distinction TO the JET
fOrds Mcclellan method of how not to DO
it. The noble Pionslua was brought in
and started this way. In the meantime,
word having been received here Of the
capture of this murderous wretch, the
United States civil authorities obtained
warrant and dispatched Deputy Sheriff
Shibell and A. Linn, to take possession Of
the prisoner and bring him here for trial.
Somewhere on the road these civil officers
net Agent Clum and his Indian police
with Pionsina. Upon presentation Of the
warrant, the captors turned the prisoner
over TO the civil authorities who placed
him in a wagon and started this way. At
a point some 10 or Is miles the other side
of Tres Alamos the two officers turned
around to look at their prisoner and found
him missing, eyanesced, ske-
daddIed, huked, wOodbined, escaped as
it were How he escaped we are not in
formed. He was probably not shackled
and of course seized the first unguarded
moment to slip out of the wagon and slide
off. Agent Clum parted with his Indian
police at Point of Mountain, they going
TO San Carlos and he coming this way.
Upon his arrival at Tres Alamos he first
heard of the escape and as soon as he
could comprehend the disaster, he started
back Immediately, to catch his Indians
and start them back after Pionsina. 1t is
believed they will yet succeed in recap
turing him, although the delay has render
ed it q very difficult task.

Mr.. a. A. WILT, OF the Cienega station
east Of here, was in town the first OF the
week. His station + on the old stage road
OF the overland NAL route between Tue
son and New Mexico. Some time since a
new road was opened through the spur OF
the santa Catarins Mountains. which was
claimed as making the route shorter and
better, aud which lat Mr.. Wits station
on the old road out in the cold. He now
informs us that the mail route men have
decided to give up the new road and re-
turn to the old one, passing the Cienega,
as the better route, and says that he will
as before keep the incest kind Of station
for the accommodation OF all who may
pass that way.

THERE has no subsidiary coin been re-
ceiyed from the United States treasury
for distribution here, and from appear
auces none will be needed. Upon small
silver and fractional currency becoming
of about equal value, large quantity OF
silver coin has come upon the market
here, it being to a great extent Mexican
coin, and the chink Of hard money can
now be heard in nearly every store IN
town. If the transition from filthy cur
rency to bright silver meets with no oo-
stacle, we shall soon be flooded with coin.
We think that fractional currency was
and is the filthiest thing, IN general use
in the land. But it was a great blessing
in its day.

THE heat has settled down to business
during the past week ana newcomers
who had never seen an Arizona summer
have been somewhat set back and made
more modest. These opinionated stran-
gers have passed through our unusually
cool spring weather and thinking that
that was what we called hot, they have
become a little inflated and pulled up.
During the cool weather OF few weeks
ago we heard one of these visitors say:
at beats everything how proud people
are OF their local weather; now, they told
me before l came here that l had no idea
of what hot weather was; why, this isn't
hot; this is no more than the average
Spring heat in my native Squeedunk or
the adjacent Mauch Chunk; l haven't
even changed my heavy clothes; you are
mistaken about the climate In Arizona,
as you are about the army and some other
things" We met the same party last
Monday about two p. N. The thermom-
eter, in a cool, shaded and breezy passage
way, hung lazily by its ring and score l12
degrees without turning hair The in
dividual referred to came up reeking with
moisture at every pore, and as he gazed
gaspingly at the heat indicator wanted to
know what had happened; whether the
last great day had come or whether the
intended pyrotechnic displays of the com
ing centennial Fourth were prematurely
burning up things. 1t did us good to see
him; we are acclimated and could have
stood or 10 more degrees without any
inconvenience, while he was Just sizzling
at only ll2. So we added to his comfort
by telling him nothing had happened,
that the weather had begun to settle down
TO ordinary summer heat and that it real
ly looked as if we should yet escape our
usual June frost We are sorry to say
the weather of subsequent days did not
aid US in our kind intentions On Tues
day the thermometer had dropped to 10
in the shade and nearly every body caught
a cold. On Wednesday the thermometer
was still falling and doled out only lO7
degrees. 1t is not at all uncomfortable
at the latter temperature, if you haven't
changed your Undertaking, but we wish
it would get warm so the starch could be
taken out Of the conceited strangers in
our midst who think they know some
thing about hot weather. If you don't
think it's warm in Arizona, ask anybody
who has ever been here to tell you the
story founded on fact, of the soldier who
died at Yuma and went where all Yumaites
90 after death. We can't tell the story;
we have sworn we never would and we
won't. But ask anybody else and they
will tell 1t you; there is 10 one in Arizona
but what knows this Sunday school tale
by heart, except perhaps the editor of the
Miner Listen to that story, and don't
grumble hereafter when the heat is only
l12 degrees in the shade.

GENERAL AUGUST V. KAUTz returned
Ito Tucson yesterday morning from the
Chiricahua campaign, and left here last
evening in company with Col. J. P. Mar
tin and Lieutenant F. \. Whitney, of his
staff, for Prescott. The work which Gen
eral Kautz has accomplished since his
short stay in southern Arizona. has been
well and effectively done. BY his eX-
tensive and careful movement of troops
he secured the removal of the Chiricahua
Indians without bloodshed, and he is en-
titled to more credit for the method
which he took, than IL he had first driven
the Indians into the field and then sub
dued them by long. brilliantand success
full campaign. The world don't gusge a
mans deeds in exact accord with such
principles, but there are many people in
this part of the Territory who entertain
new feelings of gratitude and respect to-
ward General Kautz for his late modest,
uuassuming but effective performance of
( his duty as a soldier
