Ar no period in the history of Tucson, have the future prospects looked so bright as at present. With the completion oi the Southern Pacific railway. the Quay mas and Tucson one will surely follow. This will make a railway center here, and also the commercial center for an exten- siye trade. The varied resources that n1- turally belong to Tucson, are extensive. It has been for many years the principal place for trade between Sonora, portions of Chihuahua and Arizona, and the com pletion of these railroads will largely in- crease this trade. The stock raiser will find a ready sale for his beef and mutton to supply the markets of San Francisco. Mines containing low grade ores will then be worked al profit. All that is neces- sary 10 secure these benefits that natural ly belong 10 Tucson, is for the people to be true to themselves by upholding right and justice; keeping down discord, which is mainly engendered by selfish men for personal advantages; and enforcing a wise and consistently economical admiuistra- ton of city and county affairs.

A QUARREL ABOUT A PIG.

The other day q singular case was
tried in England before common jurv,
1t was an action OF SANDER, the imputa-
Lion being a trifiing assertion to the eff.
feet that the plainuif was a thief, and a
liar, aud no gentleman. Out west. when
person is thus afectionately ad.
dressed funeral scene soon enlivens
the village proceedings; but in England
the party aggrieved resorts to a court OF
justice. AT the trial under cOnsidera
tion 1t was made to appear that the par
ties TO the suit lived at HuGdersfield,
where there is society called ''The
Horticultural, Floral, Horse, Pig, Poul.
try, Pigeon, Rabbit, Dog, aud Cat ST..
ciety," III connection with which a show
10 annually held.
At one Of the shows q member OF Par.
lament for the borough, being desirous
OF encouraging his constituency, offered
a prize for The best pig. At this show
the delendants father exhibited q pig
which was the perlectlon of porcine
beauty. 1t excited the admiration of
cOnnOisseurs, and committee, made up
| expressly OF lrishmen, pronounced it to
be the most meritOriUus specimen of
swine that was ever exhibited. Indeed
so far did 1t transcend all competitors
in those beauties which 60 to make up a

that the prize was awarded to the fortu.
nate owner amid universal applause.
But 1t was not every one who was
satisfied with the decision, and before
the blue ribbon Of victory could be at
tached to the ring which adorned the
nose of the pig, a protest was entered
on the ground that the prize animal was
over the prescribed age. An examina.
ton of the pigs teeth followed, the
number OF wrinkles in its tail were
counted, and alter some further exam
ination IL was held by the committee
that the winner OF the prize must prove
to their satisfaction that the pigs age
was within the limit stated by the rules

DYING OF HUNGER In C8NA.

A very dark picture is drawn by a
correspondent of the Paris Temps of the
distress which has been prevalent in
China for the last lew months. He says
that in the Chilli and Shantung dis
tricts the distress has reached such a
height that a part Of the Inhabitants OF
these large provinces are literally dying
of hunger. Two Europeans who had The
courage to carry some provisions to II
small village in Shantung returned
h0rroT-strucK with what they had
seen. The Inhabitants were putting
an end to their sutferings by
suicide, and in one family the father
and mother, to avoid Witnessing the
death agony OF their starving children,
had buried them alive. The lamine has
been caused by the failure OF the har-
vest for two years running in districts
which are generally very fertile. Meth
er grain nor fruits are to be mad AT any
price, and the land seems 10 have been
scorched by burning wlnd. The grass
Wy the roadside has been deyUured to
its very roots by tue tamisniEg people,
who have stripped all the trees of their
bark and foliage. AS the winter has
been exceptionally severe, many Of the
sufferers have died from cUlu as well as
from munger, and the appearance Of the
| surVIYOrs IS most ghasLly.

PROFITABLE WDAMAGES.o

The Hartford Couranr prints the fol-
lowing railroad romance: "The industry
of railroading has developed some
thrifty characters, among whom a tor-
mer employe Of the New York. New Ha-
ven & Hartford Road deserves high
rank. He was at one time at work in
The Springfield depot, ana while taking
a trunk out Vt q baggage car from Bos-
ton he was thrown over and hurt,
the baggage-smashing art being for The
time reversed. Tue injured rmploye
suffered terribly, and crawled around
ON crutches until the Boston & Albany
and the New Haven Roads uulLed ana
gave him $4,000. lie was cured the next
day. Sho4ly afterward a man on tue
Boston & Albany Rad was klled, and
the company gave mis- widow 50, 900. The
lormer cripple, who had scored VI 900 a.
ready, soon married her, ahd thus
counted 1900. He recovered his health
SO completely chat he was able again to
work on the railroad; but finally, not
being hurt again within a reasonable
lime, he retired TO a farm VIII ch he had
bought with part OF the proceeds Of mis-
former calamlLIes."
