We have received on our table a neat pamphlet containing a description, by Professor William P. Blake, of the famous Silver King mIne of Arizona. Professor Blake has made a close study of the subject of his "description," and therefore, it IS needless to say that his report is accurate and exhaustive. His reputation as @ mineralOgist and geOlogist, guar antees both these qualities. He commences with sketch of the circumstances attending and sur- rounding the discovery of the Silver King, which embOdies a frontier romance of more than ordinary interest, from which he leads up to the workings of the mine, the geological features Of the country and the mlneralogl' cal peculearities and curiositie5 exposed in development. The pamphlet contains life-like, views of the property, including hOisting works and mill together with a map of the various levels and workings under ground. The following comprises the principal mineral species so far found in the mine: Native Sil yer, StrOmeyerlte, Argentije, Sphalerite, Galenite, Tetrahed- rite, Bornite, ChalcOpyrite,

Santa Fe, New Mexico, is going to have big blowout this sum- mer. On July 2d will commence the Tertio-M o-MilIenniaI celebration, which will be accompanied by a Mining and Industrial Exposition of the Rocky Mountains region. The SENTINEL has been favored with a complimentary season ticket, for which It returns thanks to MT. Chas. w. Greene, General Manager of the EXposi- tion. TertiO- millennial means one-third of one thousand years, or three hundred and thirty three years. SConcernlng the cele- bration the Epltaph says: "Santa Fe will, in July, celebrate her tertio- millenniaI or three hum and thirty-third anniversary of its settlement. Santa Fe, or Tanes, as it was then known, was settled in 1850. fifty-eight years after Columbus, discovered Ame- rica, seventy years before Ply mouth rock was discovered and chrIstened, and fifteen years be- fore St. Augustine was founded. The celebration will be unique and something not generally "on the bill," and will consist of mixture of ancient and modern things-a display of minerals, archaeological curiosities, eXhibi- tions of the customs of the Pueblo Indians, a grand entry of the Spaniards into to the city, fandangoes, etc., etc. The cele- bration will continue through the whole month of July"

The recent tornadOeS in the South west have again called the attention of insurance men to the advisabilIty of providing ''tor- nado insurance" The frequency and destructiveness of these tor nadoes can now be so approxi- mately determined that under writers say rates for such insur- ance can be as readily made as for life or fire insurance. Such insurance would be q great bles- sing to thousands in those parts of the country subject to the visi- tations of cyclons. Most of those whose houses and property are destroyed are comparatively poor people, who, when they lose these lose the labor of years. From fire by taking some precau- tion, they can protect themselves, but from those terrific wind storms which in a few seconds destroy so many lives and so much property. there is no pro- lection, and people would will ingly pay a high premium for the security against backruptcy that such tornado insurance would give.

The great depreciation in tn e value of Yuma county warrants is a most wonderful problem. and one that does not admit of easy solution. Three years ago the revenue of this county fell a tri- f1e short of $5,000 per annum and scrip was worth 50 and D cents. Last year the income of Yuma county was 1000, and the eX- penditureS $11, ,000, leaving d sur plus towards the eXtinguishment of the old debt. This year the revenue of the county will amount 10 at leat S26, ,000, and the expenses, including the small pox epidemic, will not exceed $15,000. It was only a few munths ago that warrants com- manded from 60 tu D cents on the dollar. We reiterate that this most intricate puzzle is diff ficult of solution, for the reason that there is neither sense nor justice in running our cOunty's paper to such a discount when the circumstances uo not bear out their depreciation in value. The debt of this county amounts in round figures to about SS0,000. In ordinary years the expenses of the county average about $10,000, leaving a handsome surplus each year toward cancelling the old indebtedness of the county. However, the defeat of the fund- ing bill in grea. measure had tendency to lower the value of scrip; and our citizens one and all can now see the folly of not having funding the debt. All county bills would have been paid in cash, and the interest that is now constantly accumu- lating on these warrants would have ceased; and the old war rants reissued in the form of bonds would have drawn a much smaller rate of interest. These plain facts are brought before our people for their benefit, as we'll as of the community in which they live.

The successful move to fund the indebtedness of the Territory was a good one. All our peop e say so. In about thirty days from to-day Territorial Treasurer But Ter thinks the bonds will be sig ned and ready for issuance. They are to be Autographed. After the lapse of this short time, the treasury will call in all the war rants and redeem them. Every dollar then owed by Arizona will be represented by bonds drawing, what appears to our people, low rate ofinterest. As it was Gov. Tritle who recom- mended the move, in his late message. the Courier. with the light now before it, will say that. in having done so, the governor performed a praise worthy act for the Territory of Ariz0na.-Cou- rier.

Another complication has aris- en in the muddIe caused by the dual treasurership of Yuma county. On Saturday last de-
 mand was made upon Mir. Mar tin for payment of a contingent fund warrant and a school war rant. Payment was refused up- on the ground that since the Su- pervisors would not recognize him as treasurer, MT. Martin dId not feel justified in disbursing any of the funds, and had been advised by his attorneys not to redeem any warrants. He ad-
 mitted that there was money in his possession enough to pay the demands, but refused to do so.
 This is an interesting state of af- fairs. MT. Martin claims to be treasurer of Yuma county, and yet he refuses to perform the functions of that office until some one else proves him either enti- tied 10 II or u>urper. The dam age sustained by this con. manI- ty through this policy, from 8
 purely business standpoint, is in-
 calcuIable. The contingent fund

The Board of Loan Com misSio- ners met at the office of Governor Tritle, at twelve o'clock noon to day, in pursuance to published notice: Present, F. A, Tritle Governor; I. J. Butler, Treas, and B. P. Clark, Auditor, cOnsti- tuting, said Board and proceeded to open bids for the sale of $260,- 900 in ' per cent. bonds, in ac> cordance with the provisions of and Act of the late Legislature "'t0 provide for the funding of the indebtedness of the Territory of Arizona" The hid of M Lewis, of San Francisco, being $264, 900 for the whole S260,O0O in bonds, was accepted and the sale awarded to MT. Lewis according ly.
 This placing of our Territorial will result in an an nual saving of nearly ten thou Sand dollars to tax payers; and to Governor TritIe is due the credit of suggesting and securing the passage of the law authorizing it.

During a recent trip to Califor- mia the editor of the Prescott Miner visited the insane of Ari- zona, kept at the asylum of Dr. Clark, at Stockton.

was created for the purpose its name implies: for contingent ex- .penSes. It is supposed to be a cash furd, and all claims against 1t are rated as cash. If it is not possible to use this fund, as MT. Martins actions indicate, all of these claims will have to be drawn on the general fund. At the present market rate of gen eral fund warrants claimants are compelled to charge double price for ali services, and upon the re- demption of the warrants the ac- cumulated interest will again double it. But that is not the most serious difficulty. What is to be done with our schools? MT. Martin has in his possession the school funds and refuses to pay school warrants. This will be a hardship to those least able to bear it. Shall our schools be closed? It looks that way. The teacher can ill afford to watt an indefinite time for theIr pay, yet no broker can tell what they are worth to-day. So long as MT.
 Martins actions threatened only the pecuniary interests of the community the situation was not so grave; but when they attack our public schools they should bring upon the aggressor the condemnation of all honest men.

Some inquiring genius has dis covered that we have in the nickel five-cent piece of our coinage, a key to the tables of linear measures and of weights. The diameter of this coin is two centimeters, and its weight is five grammes. Five of them placed in a row will, ol course, give the length of the decimeter; and two of them will weigh d decagramme. As the kilCliter is a cubic meter, the key to the measure of length is also the key to the measures of capacity. Any person, therefore, who is fortunate enough to own a five cent nickel, may carry in his pocket the intire metric system of weights aud measures.

As to a crown
To bow before, and we weave threads
OF different length and thickncss-somo mere

And wind them round
Till all the skein of life is bound,
Sometimes forgetting all the time
To ask
The value OF the threads, or choose
Strong stuff to use.
No hand but winds some thread;

But what it spins and winds little skcin.
God made each hand for work-not toil-stain
Is required, but every hand
Spins, though but ropes of sand

STOPPING above when we arc done,
To find bright threads

The broken shreds, and know
