MINES IN PIMA cnnNTY

There has never been time when
 the mlping prospects in Pima county
 looked so well as they now do. This coun-
 ty has suffered more from wild cat
 schemes, and the incompetency of men
 put in charge of mines, than almost any
 other section of the country. False re-
 ports have been made without number;
 mills have been built for mines that had
 no ore or ore that would not pay for
 mining and reduction. Mills have also
 been built at mines miles away from water, and where there was no water to
 be had, and about the time the works
 were completed, they were compelled to
 bring supply from a distance at great expense, move the mill 10 water, or leave it as & monument of thelr imbecil- ity. We trust that the days Of such in- competency are about over, and that wild cats have been suppressed.
 In addition to the good reports which reach us from Gro Blanco, we under stand that some fine prospects have been found n the Santa Ritas near the old Haciendas, where so much money was squandered few years ago under incompetent management, and unscrup- ulous sharps. Some fine prospects are being developed into mines lu the Old Hat district, and we learn that a ten-atapn mill will ha aracted there in the course of few months. The little gold mill is yielding bullion right along and paying well. There are two or three more gold lodges in that vicinity, SO We have been informed, that have several hundred tons of gold ore on the dumps that will pay well for re- ductiOn. Prospecting in the Tucson mountains within few miles of Tucson IS active, and good ore Is being extracted from a number of mines, that will pay to mill or smell. Carter and Grain dis covered a large iron mine a few miles west of town two or three days ago, that will be valuable for hux. They say the ledge IS 50 or 60 feet wide and that there is an abundance of ore. It would seem from all these good pros poets, some of which have already de- veloped into mines,suplimented with the l Qlijotoas, that such thing as failure | in Pima county mines in the future will | be impossible

Making Bad Beer.

 "Do you see the schooner ID the draw of the bridge and the other approaching it?" "I do; both have bark, also"
 Well, that's the way you sec it here day after day"
 @What do they want with SO much of it? Do they burn 1t or use 1t in the tan neriesy
 There is the interesting point. The stuff won't burn worth 8 cent It is hemlOck bark. It IS sometimes used m tanneries, but you can't imagine that all that comes up the river IS used in mak- ing leather. The taDysrds would hardly hold 1t in stacks"

 "It is used as an adulteratlon Tor beer. Large quantities. Of It are ground mn and shipped to other points Chica- go brewers can afford 10 make pure beer. and I guess they do it, but this bark is fixed up and sent to other places. suppose you do not know that brewers do not now repOrt tno luBIeoicnbe Oh which their beer is ma 'e, as they once did.

I have made some casual inquiries and I learn that tanbsrk and soda are the principal substances used A little rice malt gives 1t body and makes it hold its foam. Hemlock bark Is new discovery in this respect and IS useful because it takes the place, to certain extent, of both malt and hops. It adds the pungent, bitter taste, and gives the dark. reddish color to the liquid. It is very cheap, and the brewers who use it must grow rich very fsst.'

Fashion Freaks.
-, r-,- r---.-. n---.l

New York Evening Post
 The English fashion of cropping tue hair short all over the head and forming it into little loose rings has a.ain reached America, and many ladies are sacrificing their luxuriant tresses to the Moloch Of the present mode. During an afternoon drive through a prominent city in Canada the writer lately noticed DO less than a score of Indies, both English and American, thus shOrn. With this style of coiffure the jockey hat is usually worn, excepting where the fashion is followed by middle-aged women; in this case the tOque, or English walking hat, is seen, as no larger or broader hat can very well be kept secure without braid or puff to which it may be fastened. These short. rippling locks are to a great degree charming on some heads-mostly with the round, rosy-faced girls in their teens, or not far out of them.
 A party of English young ladies, well chaperoned, recently soiOurning at Mon treal, Can, carried slender switch-cares of ebony, with small gold heads, richly chased, and wore jockey caps of plain black velvet, which were most becoming and natty looking. Both cane and cap are said to be very fashionable abroad, both in England and France.
 Wide bracelets, heavily chased, and bangles. lace-pms and dog collars of vsrlous patterns. all of solid silver are again the height of fashion.
 Trimmings of silk or satin over travel ing dresses are now considered wholly "bad form"
 Painted lace capotes will be the lead ing opera bonnets this year.

ERRONEOUS STATEMENT.

The statement in a Chicago paper that Third Assistant Postmaster Gen eral Hazen had established a rule that nothing but the senders address could be printed on stamped envelopes, is based on total misspprehension of facts. The government prints gratuit- ously on stamped envelopes a request for the return of the letter fl undeliver- ed. No rule but an act of congress for bids the postoffice department from printing anything but this request for return, but any person who buys stamp ed envelopes can take them to a printer. and at his own expense can have any thing he wants-a patent medicine sd- vertisement or map of TOnquin- printed on them if he desires to do so. Many years ago the postofiice depart ment printed anything requested on these envelopes. It printed the sender's advertisement, the receivers address, and even cut II the plate was furnish eu. A GUzen years ago tho statIOnvIs combined in protection of their craft, and got congress to pass a law forbid ding the gratuitous printing of anything but the sender's address with the re- quest return.
 Merchants and business men can, at their own expense, have anything print ed on tue face of government envelope that they desire in the shape of an ad- vertisement, but the government will not print at its expense, anything beyond a request to return to the writer, if not delivered in a stated time.

THE organs of the democratic party now i'll up most of their editorial col umns with exultations over the great victory they have won in Ohio, and what it will do for them in the next pres dentisl campaign. According to the moss-back idea, they have already as good as elected the next president. Such innocent creatures should bear in mind that they have sung several songs of the same kind during the past twenty years, but it usually ends in singing praise of the Jacksons, Pierces and Bu- chanans including some of the so-called constitutional partiots of the present generation, up to the day of the cleo tions when they awake from their dreamy -ong-singing to find that the live and more energetic republicans have as usual carried off the prize. 4 little success suffices to make the democrats happy. If they elect governor n a state Iat ususily goes demac-atlc, they a' once conclude that 20 radical change hus ken place throughout ths country. Seymour had an trouble in carrying New York during the war by large dem ocratic maiorities. Yet this did not prevent Lincoln from being elected in 1864 The election of William Allen, as governor of Ohio by over 20.00O maj i.rI- ty did not prevent Grant and Hayes from carrying the state at the following presidential elections. Even so radical a state as Rausas elected a demCc7atc governor a year ago, owing to local dls- sensions but no sane man ever expects it to go democratic when a presidents to be elected. If the democrats would work instead of putting thelr time ln lofty talk, they might accomplish somethlng' but so long as they content themselves with singing songs of self praise, which nobody except died in the wool moss backs will believe, the country Is safe.

TIE San Francisco Alta says: "The Tucson CITIZEN proposes to drop the use of military and honorary titles be- cause 1t has ascertsined, by careful calculation, that the actual increased cost of printing a paper because of the use of titles IS $500 year. But it would be a surprise if that journals subscrip- ton list did not begin to decline con- tamporaneously with its disuse Of titles. The chief use an Arizona man has for a newspaper IS to see himself referred to as Colonel or Judge" There IS no doubt but there are few Arizona men who are tickled by such empty compll- ments: but We can assure the Alta that the average Arizona man" IS above such nonsense; and surprising as 1t may seem, the subscription list of the CITI- ZEN. instead of falling of, is increasing at the rate of two hundred copies per month, and so long as this continues, the CITIZEN will adhere to its resolution. There will be tine enough to put on the handles when the decline" comes, but so far the new departure works well. But the Alta seems to have mistaken our resolution in part; the CITIZEN did not purpose dropping military titles, or any other titles that really exist. Il only intended to lop off titles that dc not exist.

IRIsH-AMRRICAN citizens are deeply interested in securing a fair trial for O'Donnell, the slayer of Carey. This Is natural, yet it is but little m favor of ODonneI, as every one must know that even with fair trial he will be convicted of murder in the first degree, the pen alty for winch is death. O'Donnell took his life in his own hands when he killed Carey, and he cannot escape 'he conse- ouences. It was rash act, from which no good will result. He cut short lie that would have been more severely punished by being allowed to exist BanIshed from his native country to a foreign land, with no friends among all his countrymen to speak to, without means. and we may add without hope' bls future was far from being pleasant to oontemplate. Better to have allowed Carey to die the outcast that he was than to have put him beyond trouble and shorten his miserable life by only few years. There is no help for O'Don- nell. and any extraordinary effort m hls behalf can only be an expression oi sympathy. which cannot help his cause | in the least
