A GENTLEMAN in village in New-York State has a family of three or four little girls. Not long since the children were talking about pair of twins. One of them, an elder one, turned to her father and said: "Papa, what do they call 1t when three babies come at Osce?" A little one, who was much interested in the conversation, and who had heard talk about the smallpox, at once inter rupted and said with much animation: "I know, papa "Well, what do they call it:' sad the father. An epidemic" said the little one. proudly displaying her knowledge"

Ainsa of Tucson. Mr. Ainsa is a man oi
 intelligence, a 'Mexican Yankee" as he
 applies the term. He has had a varied
 experience. He was born in Sonora, has
 lived in California. and IS a remarkably
 well posted man. and his ideas of his
 country and Of the people of Sonora, are correct. He is lawyer by profession,
 and l trust that the people of this State
 may yet be benefited by his good advice. He put his shoulder to the wheel"
 Our stage experience was not ended
 here. Our next team was
 THE wILDEsT OF THE WILD.
 It required three hours to hitcl it mp. they no sooner got one hitched up than
 1t would fall down; then kick and jump over the tongue. fall on hls back, his
 heels mp, and lie as # dead. I cannot say how many times they twisted their
 tails and pulled them out; but we actu- ally went to sleep and left them at work. At last about daylight on the fourth
 morning out of Tucson, the ~regular war
 whOop" was sounded, and away we went through ga 5c brush and mesquite, and then-a sudden halt-one of the bron- cos had jumped over on the other side of the tongue from where he had been hitched in. Another operation was per formed, and then another "war vhooD~ sounded, and away We go. The same bronco jumps over the tongue again, and his mate, who had got out Ot patience at something, jumped over on the side number one had vacated; DOW they were visa versa and both on their backs. and their heels in tine air, and the harness utterly lost in the double and twisted side action. Thirty minutes more were required to straighJen them ont. when another start was made, this time with better success. We go on for an hour and nothing happens, except that the off wheel bronco kicks all the boar Is out of the front boot. X few miles more and the wheelers are abandoned. and their places supplied by others which a vaque- TO caught by the way side. The next station, 2 miles, WIS made by noon. There v-e got "a

south of Casa Grande about thirty
 miles just beyond the hills of Gibraltar and Papagueria range, there is a mine known as the Old Grandmother mine, called by tine Indians Vekol. This mine has for the last year ani a half been shipping its ore neatly sacked to San Francisco and Denver. Without brag or much ado the pr'prietors of this mine, Messrs. Brady G Walker, of Florence, have been quietly extracting ore and shipping th same, employing fifteen men steadily. At no time have they of- fered their property for sale of their own volitiou. It Is now sought after by cap italists at figure that would set inning circles agog. This comes from a stolid perseverance, ? in developing ones prop erty and not attempting to hawk it around to every tadlo buyer. Let men of capital look into a district that can produce mines of which the owners can say, "our mine has yielded us more than We have ever been offered" and let miners understand that it IS worth while to stand manfully by their claims, as mines must make a good showing and prove mp its pudding before capitalists will invest.

A Rich. Curious specimen.

MT. George w. Atkins, who recently re. turned from Bis bee, brought unique specimen of ore from the 300 level of the Copper Queen, of which he was one of the early owners. It is a round fragment of ore c, imposed of black oxides, green car bonates and malachite, about six inches long by four in diameter. Upon the top is capping of stalaglhitic formation that rarks 'he low progress of growth that this lime incrustation must have gone through in attaining its present size and thickness. As cabinet specimen il has rare value.
