Great God The Apache murderer, that had Judge McCOmas' watch, and was no doubt the most active in killing Judge McCOmas and his lovely wife, IS not only taken to the reservation and feasted, but the brother of Judge Me COmas Is compelled to give that mur- derer $50 before he could get the watch back; thus giving the Apache that re- ward for numbering hIs brother. What do the papers of the country think of that ? We look to General Wilcox, agent, to spot that Indian, # Crook don't do oit.-Mssilla ~. M.) News.

The Spoiled Lily.

4 New York correspondent says: The Jersey Lily is very fond G money, but apparently not as much for its own sake as for what 1t will do for her. She is very extravagant and must have the most luxurious things. She proposes to man. age herself next year, yet she has not the slightest idea of business nor the least appreciation of public obligations. She IS rather spoiled child than vi- cious one. Personally she is perfectly helpless, and she says she could not dress nor undress herself without the assistance Of her maid if her life de- pended upon 1t. She will lie m bed un- til evening waiting for her maid rather than try to dress herself If she wants thing she wants 1t; and fl she can't have 1t she will cry like baby. She couldn't get certain room that she wanted ID Western hotel, SO she sat dowr on the stairs and cried like a child In another hotel she found two of the creatures Mrs. Carlyle spent two hOurs in destroying in her bed, and she got up at o'clock and went with her entire suite to her car, where she finished out the night To avoid this plague and other annOyances, Mrs. LRngtry will live aboard her car next season. She sails for England by the Alaska on the 24th, at least that is her plan at present. but she is never of the same mind two days n succession. l think she makes a mistake in going back to England. She l will, of course, never be received there by the same set again. Not that there are not just as fast women as Mrs. Lang try in its innermost circle, but they as- sume virtue if they have 1t not.

 THE Ameucn consul at Monterey recently left Or a brief visit in the United States. On arriving at Laredo he received a dispatch notifying him that on Mondy night after he left, his office was ent,red and Rev Mr. Shaw, whom he had eft in charge was attack ed and beaten nearly to death, and the furniture aud papers belonging to the consul destroyed. No reason IS assigned for the outrage. This insult to the United States should be promptly in- quired ito, and if found as reported the Mexraa government should be com pelled b make immediate repsration. The If. of a United States Consul should be as safe in Mexico as in this side of ihe line, and not only the auth critics, but the people of that country should be made to understand It.

GENERAL ROBINSON, member of Con- gress from the Ninth Ohio district. says he has had correspondence with a num- Der of leading Germans in different parts Of the stse, and they say that al most the entir detection of last year will'vote soIdI with the republicans as long as the iq,or lsgislation remaIns as it is. So, after all, ihe>Scott license law IS coming to le popular IF Ohio. The law IS one of the best in the country, and there is n0 reajon why it should not be acceptable to all classes Of people. The license -ates of the Scott law are lower than he lcense laws of either West Virginia orTennessee, where the people do not obect to them at all, but on the cortrsryapprove them. The democrats now recognize their mistake in making a fightfor lower license tax ID Ohio; the ranl and file of their own party are Opposd to it. It now looks as though the republicans would carry the state by abort the usual majority.

He Was Educated.

Looks are often deceptive. The most ill-featured men sometimes possess ihe noblCst characters, and the most simple, guiless, appearing chaps are sometimes those who know as many points as their next door neighbOrs. This was She case of a cDuntryman who came Co town a few days ago. The sports knew the place he hailed from, his occupation and his short residence in the territory. and concluded he was q subject But the coUntryman had been educated in the east, and failing health had compelled him Co seek the salubrious climate of Arizona for recuperatiOn. Meeting in a saloon, last evening, the sports invited him tO just try a social game of poker. Of course professionals are SD fond oi social ssmes they are such novelty. The party sat down and played till day light this morning. The countrymau arose with S92 of rhe sports money in his pocket After breakfast he took the train for home. Moral: Don't think every tenderfoOt Is uuacgumnted with ways that are dark.

to the highly prosperous activity which
Is to be seen here and everywhere in

tlemen as the principals in the con-
struction of these great thoroughfares
which have have made this land
accessible to man and capital. In the
beginning their extensive railroad
schemes, on and from this coast, must
have appeared to general observation
like reckless venture. Certainly men
less bold, enterprising and far seeing
would not have entered upon building
roads over almost impossible rocky
heights and across vast sandy wastes,
even though there was an FL Dorado
beyond. The undertakings seemed as
premature as they were gigantic. 1t

Ex-Governor Reuben Il. Fonton,
who has been spending a portion OF
the winter in Southern California, has
written from Los Angeles under date
of March % a private letter, from
which the following extract is taken:
Los Angeles is especially active
and prosperous. Its growth since l
was here three years ago has
been exceptional even in this rapidly
growing part of California. The in
creased facilities for travel and trade
from the far East and from Arizona
and New Mexico have opened the way
to further settlement in the rich val
leys and to the growth of towns. The
vineyards and orange orchards are
increasing; the manufacture of wine
and brandy is carried forward on a
larger scale, the planting of nut trees
and semi-tropical fruits beside the
orange has been surprisingly multi.
piled, and the growth of wheat fol
export is now becoming an important
interest. The new impulse may b.
traced to the opening of the Southern
Pacific railroad through the southern
Territories and on to the East anC
Southeast. This main line and it
several branches in Southern Oalifor
MIA naturally turn toward Los Ange
