Item from AriYaca.

Mir Geo. k. Emerick who came in from Ariyaca last evening, reports business in that section to be slowly but surely im- proving. The McCaferty mine now idle for the past year, Is again beginning to show signs of returning life, and an ef- fort is now being made to pump the water from the shafts preparatory to re- suming work. The Gro Fino, although somewhat troubled with water still man. tains its reputation for high grade ores, which with depth still continues to i'm prove so that the company owning it feel justified in making further invest ments, for heavier machinery, in case increasing depth and 2 stronger flow of water require 1t.

4 GENTLEMAN writing from Total Wreck says that on Thursday night the Total Wreck hook and ladder company responded to the call of fire" with the ease and alacrity of a well regulated fire company. The'cause of the alarm was a fire, likely the work of an incendiary- one who saw merit in the Kearney motto: 'The chinese must go."-and it resulted in the total wreck and destruction of chinese wash house. The loss will prob- ably amount to about four bundles of shakes and possibly twenty yards of calico at 10 cents yard. So much for fire No l, of Total Wreck, and the incen- diary who probably never had a shirt to wash.

llEssEs w c. LAND and J. c. Hays, two of Nevada's heaviest cattle owners, left Tucson Wednesday morning for Bar nett's cattle ranch in Sonora, with the intention of examining both ranch and cattle, and if suitable and terms reason- able, would purchase the entire outfit. The same gentlemen on the day previ- ous had bought the cattle of Mr Wiltz at Benson and also the sheep of Mr. San ford near Pantano. They both express themselves as well pleased with the present and future outlook of Arizona and say that for cattle raising this Ter ritUry is much superior to the State of Nevada, where by the severity of the winter climate an average loss of fifteen or twenty per cent is annually sustained, a loss unheard Of among the cattle men of Arizona, where stock cattle as a rule are in good condition the year through. Both gentlemen from their own observa- tious are convinced that such is the case and are preparing to profit accordingly.

The EavesdrOpper.

The most contemplate thing in nature
is the eavesdropper. The name was
originally given TO the person who
listened beneath the windows and at the
doors of peoples houses, but custom
authorizes its use in speaking of any OF
the tribe of contemplate sneaks who
peek about and listen and pry into their
neighbors' affairs.
The eavesdropper bears the impress
of his character upon his countenance
and betrays it LII his sneaking slip-slop
gait. He sidles into every company
where he thinks any private matter Is
being discussed, and peeks over their
shoulders with his mouth agape like a
young chimney swallow waiting for q
worm, and here he will stay until the
company is either compelled to change
the subject of their talk or seek some
some spot not infested by the caves
droppr. Let two gentlemen sit down
at any point along the street and engage
in private conversation, and it will not
be long before the eavesdropper takes
up his position near them to pry into
what does not concern him.
Your eavesdropper has no shame. He
cannot take hint, and there are but
two ways to get rid of him. One is to
go where he can't find you, and the
other is to kick him for his insolence.
Those who prefer the former method
can take it, but as for ourself we have
determined to adopt the latter, the next
time occasion requires.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

FoR several years it has been observed
that the European glaciers are steadily
retreating.
THE molecules of hydrogen, at tenn
perature of 60o Fahrenheit, move at the
average Of 6,225 feet in a second.
FLAMMARIAN says that the tail of q
comet must sweep through space with
the velocity of 16, 900 leagues per second.
Mr.. STONE, her Majesty's astronomer
at the Cape of Good Hope, has just COM
pleted his great catalogue of Southern
stars, the result of ten years labor at the
cape.
The algm known as protococcacem
have one peculiarity-they do not live
in the water but in other plants, some in
dead, some in dying and others in living
parts.
SOME people have come to believe
that sailing or smoking will kill trichinoe,
but temperature of 2l20 Fahrenheit,
or at least 1902 should be reached il
every part of the meat to bring about
this result.
The colors which distinguish our sum-
mer and autumn hora-reds, pinks, blues
and yellows-are caused by the presence
of substances which require q strong
light and high temperature for their
production.
1t WAS at one time supposed that
among twining plants each had it's own
direction, some twinibg toward the sun
and others against 1t; but, though the
theory is true in the main, there are
found exceptions to the rule.
THE amount of nervous action may be
measured by the quantity of blood con-
sumed in its performance. The plethys-
mograph, measuring the volume of an
organ, when the arm is brought in con-
tact with its records the amount of blood

thus indicates exactly the effort in men,

EXPERIMENTS have recently been made
to show that the presence of ozone pro-
duces luminosity in phosphorus. In
pure oxygen, at temperature of 15o c.,
and under atmospheric pressure, phos-
phorolls is not luminous in the dark,
and bubble of ozone introduced under
the bell glass produces momentary phos-
phorescence.
THE practical value of the Faure ac-
cumulator for the storing of electricity
is yet to be proved. 1t is said that sew
eral such batteries stationed in house
and charged with electricity during the
day will be sufficient to light up the
rooms at night and perform such light

A Primitive Tribe.

DR.. Hunter describes peculiar tribe
in India, which has preserved an extreme
primitiveness. The people are caHed
Leaf Wearers, because they wear the
costume of Adam and Eve before the
fall; or, more strictly speaking. they
did so until the English persuaded them
to adopt cloth. In 1871 the English Off
Ger called together the clan, and, after a
speech, handed out strips of cotton for
the women to put on. They then passed
in single file to the number of one thou
sand nine hundred before him, made
obeisance to him, and were afterward
marked on the forehead with vermilion
AZ a sign of their entering into civilized
society. Finally they gathered the
punches of leaves which had formed
their sole clothing into great heap, and
solemnly set fire to it. This leaf wearing
tribe had no knowledge of the metals
till quite lately, when foreigners came
among them, andno word existed in their
native language for iron or any other
metal But their country abounds in
flint weapons, so that the Juangs form a
remnant to our own day of the stone
age.
Inor MUS, virtues Tue ohicer WIG
knows them best, "are among the small
est that human beings ever deliberately
constructed as dwellings. They measure
about six feet by eight feet. The head
of the family and all the females huddle
together in this one shell, not much
larger than a dog kennel" The boys
and the young men of The village live in
one large building apart by themselves
and this custom of having q common
abode for the whole male youth of the
hamlet is found among many aboriginal
tribes in distant parts of India.
