How To secu re Health.

It seems starnge thet anyone will suffer from the many Arrangements brought on by an impure condition of the blood, when SCOVILL'S SARSAPARRILLA AND STILLlNGIA. or BLOOD AND LIVER SYRUP will restore perfect health to the physical organization. It is indeed 8 strengthening syrup, pleasant to. take, and has proven itself to be the BEST BLOOD PURIFIER ever discovered, ef- fectually curing Scrofula, Syphilltic disorders, Weakness of the Kidneys, Erysipelas, Malaria; all nervous disorders and Debility, Bilious eomplainsts aud all Diseases indicating an impure Condition of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys, Stomach, Skln, etc. It corrects indigestion. A single bottle will prove to you its merits as health renewer. for it ACTS LIKE A CHARM, especially when the complaint is of an exhaustive nature, having Il tendency to lessen the natural vigor of the br am and nervous system.

Late Indian News.

Lordsburg, N. M., Marck 29.-A mes senger arrived here last night from Thompson's canyon, eighteen miles northeast of this place, and gives intelli- gence of the murder. by the hellish Apa- ches, of Judge H. c. McComas, of Sil- yer City. Judge McComas telegraphed yesterday morning from Silver City that this point last night Mrs. McComas and her son were captured by the Indi- ans. and at this writing she has no doubt been ravished by every brute in the band. God pity the unfortunate victims whose lot it is to reside on this unpro- tected frontier.
 Later-A party just retuaned from the scene of the massacre of last night in 1hompson's canyon, found Mrs. Judge McComas shot through the head, lying by the side of the blackboard, stripped naked. The Judge was found about POO yards south of his wife, shot in four diff ferent places. and also stripped naked. The bodies were sent to Silver City. The boy is missing.
 Benson, March 29.-There is a rumor here that the troops and hostiles had an engagement in the Whetstone noun tains last night, in which the troops were worsted. Signal fires were seem last night at the foot of the Dragoon moun- tains.
 Everything is reported quiet on the line of new Mexico and Arizona railroad.
 Our citizen held meeting last night and adopted resolutions setting forth the suPineress and utter inability of the troops as at present handled, to quell the Indian depreciation and urging the gov ernment to adopt more vigorous policy. Other towns and camps have been invited to adopt similar resolutions.

The Phoenix Gazette says: Frank Well come came in to-day from Gila Bend He informs us that men are now at work on the Powers ditch, which is to be a very large canal, coming out on the north bank and afterwards fiumed across the r1ver, giving it length of twenty five or more miles. It is reported that a large force of men will soon be put on this work. Mir. Cameron, at Burke's ranch, Agua Caliente, has a ditch out a mile and halt in length, fourteen feet wide at the bottom. Below, the grade is but twenty inches, and consequently the work can easily be continued. Farming lands on the lower GiIa will soon be in good demand.

The reclamation of the lower Gila val ley lands by MT. Fishers land company w4ll bring under cultivation during the present year over one hundred and fifty thousand acres of magnificent agricul- tural lands, which will produce all kinds of cereals, sugar-cane, cotton, fruit and vegetables. It is such investments as this which not only develops the wealth of Arizona, but returns large profits to the far. seeing investors of capital Star.

A private letter received from the Sill
 yer King mine. gives interesting infor.
 nation concerning that justly famous
 property. The main shaft is now down
 700 feet, with levels at that depth, and
 preparations fare being made to carry
 the shalf 100 feet lower where the SOC
 foot level will be run. The SENTINEL cabinet hi been enriched by beautiful native silver specimen taken from the 700-foot level and appropriated by the gentleman who writes Of the obserAa- tions made during his visit. The mil is running to its full capacity, twenty stamps and twelve tables with double discharge from the batteries. The Silver King is undoubtedly the riches mine on the Pacific coast. as evidenced by the many .sdevidends it has paid and the fur ther fact that it is managed as a legiti- mate business proposition and Lot for speculative purposes. The devidends so far paid amount to twelve dollars per share making total amount of twelve hundred thousands dollars, and this with out single assessment having been levied. These facts speak louder than any words in illustrating the Value of the property and the genius of it's manage ment.
 Col. James M. Barney has directed all the Silver King operations since the mine first took it's place among the bull lion producing properties of Arizona and to his strength of mind and business and financial genius is entirely due the remarkable success of the enterprise. He at first had every difficulty to con- tend with in imperfect and expensive transporta tion and the envious opposi- tion of evil disposed business rivals, but hls courage and nerve never forsook him. and he passed unscathed through fire to baptism. He and those friends who believed in him from the beginning are now reaping rich reward.
