The use of beads is again becoming fashionable, and there is likely to be as great a rage for that sort of ornament as there was twelve or fifteen years sga Beads are made of q great variety oi materials, glass, stone, metals. coral bone, ivory, amber, etc, but glass t generally understood when beads srt spoken of without special description And they are very old institutiOn Venice IS the place of their greateI production, where their manufacture has been staple industry for more than thousand years. Attempts have elsewhere been made to compete with Venice in bead making, but living there IS so cheap an artisan Is able to sub5ia on five cents day. and they pOssess secrets of giass-colOring known no where else, 30 that opposition has nod been successful. They give more thab two hundred different tints to single colored beads, and when they come to combinations the possibilities are u1- limited. The production IS so greE that In Venice a bunch of small bead of eighty strings, each string SIX lnChf long, can be bought for about two cents These beads are chiefly sold to tn North American Indians. It IS sing ular fact that fashion in civilization and barbarian meet on level ln the chOif of beads, the inhabitants of the Soua Sea Islands and the ladies of New NOk city, in times of bead crazes, shOwlIE preference for about the same article b color. style, and make.

 GENTLEMEN: Your favor under seal Tn re Peralts grant claim, bearing date January l4th, 1884, is received. In answer thereto, l have to say that the people living in this alleged Peralta grant seem to have been nIsled through some channel into the erroneous impression that the force of this office, under my direction, are at present engaged Investigating this grant. Such Is not the case. In the first place owing to delay Tn forwarding the blanks from Washington, l have thus far been unable to qualify for business. After have duly qualified, vast amount of business has accumulated In this office, owing to the delay of almost three months, caused by the sickness, and untimely death of my deeply lamented predecessor, which must be promtly worked off, as the interests of the government demand that this work should have precedence over all other. This above referred to work will occupy the entire force of this office for very considerable time.
 When Tn the course of ordinary busi- ness, it is deemed proper to take up for careful consideration, this alleged Pe- ralta Grant, 1 shall take particular pains to notify the proper Territorial authorities-as they have requested and shall advertise the fact of the con- templated investigation in papers of wide circulation among the people on the grant.
 Every step in this very important in- vestiSation shall be deliberate and well considered step, and every reasOn- able opportunity and ample time shall be given the people of Arizona to search out, bring forward and present anything properly appertaining to the investiga- ton of this alleged grant, to the end that the people interested shall educate themselves in the premises to stand ard that will enable them to appreciate and concur in the report that I shall make after due deliberation of the facts presented, be that report pro or con.
 Trusting when this important issue is taken up. shall have the efficient aid of all interested parties to enable me to reach q correct determination in the premises.
 I have the honor to remain,

Distance From Tucson to Logan City.


 Having heard that the township lines had been surveyed in the vicinity of the Quiiotoa mines, application was made to the office of the Surveyor General, where the following statement was ob- tanned:
 As considerable has been said about the locus of the Peer mine in the Quijo- toa mountains, take the liberty to state that the summit of the Peer mine is 10 miles south and 66 miles west of the postoffice in Tucson. It therefore lies south S1 deg. 24 min. 52 sec. west of the postoflice, and 67 miles distant in 6 direct line.
 The time at the Peer mine IS , min. 56 sec. slower than Tucson time.
 Yours respectfully,

Resources of Arizona.

Some papers seem to think that the "Resources of Arizona" was gotten up especially for the edifcstion of the peo- pie of this Territory, and that the edi- tion should be scattered among the sev- ersl counties. A glance at the act au- thOrizing the publication will disabuse this impression. It provides that the commissioner shall distribute said pam phlets in the cities and railroad centers of the eastern states, and on the Pacific coast, in such a manner as will give them the widest and most useful circu- lstioD," and the commissioner Is further required to keep a "correct account of the number distributed by him, and such other information in connection herewith as he may deem of interest, and make a report of the same to the governor at the meeting of the next leg Islature." This is the law under which MT. Hamilton is acting. and he must be guided by 1t. The object of the publi- cation is to give the outside world a correct idea of Arizona, and it's vast possibilities, and this can only be ac- complished by proper distribution of the work. He has, however, forwarded copies to parties all over the Territory, who have made application for the same after being satisfied that the books were to be sent abroad. A large number of copies are now being sent out among cattlemen in Texas, Montana and Wy oming. Monied men in the eastern cities, interested in mining, are also be ing reached, and 1t is the purpose to for ward copy to every senator and repre- sentative in the present congress. Un- der the careful and iudicious method of distribution adopted by MT. Hamilton, the work is sure to be of vast benefit to Arizona, and if the last legislature had put the rest of the public money ex- pended to such good use, it would have deserved better of the peOple.-Pheni1 Gazette.

Pulpit Dividends.

EDITOR CITIzES:-I have observed from time to time Tn your columns men tion made of discourses delivered by our city clergy. Allow me to say few words in commendstion of the very eX- cellent sermons We are hearing from Sabbath to Sabbath by the pastor, J. w.. Robinson, oi the NJ. E. Church. There is freshness and originality in hls ser mons that elicits the undivided attention of hls hearers. His eloquence consists in the earnest, logical style with which he portrsys the truths of the Gospel. There IS also satisfactory completenss in each discourse that causes one to feel as tho they had partaken Of "a good square meal" Certainly those who have so very literally contributed to that church are receiving good dividends from the pulpit.

We are informed through the columns of the Albuquerque Daily Democrat of the lith, that Mich Lee has been cap tured. That statement is not true. Mich Lee and Kid Joy have not, to this date, been captured; they are yet at large. Such false reports are very apt to throw all officers off the scent. Great care should be tsken in publishing such statements, as they may cause serious delay.
