An English physician reports a case
of persistent headache cured by the dis,
continuing of meat diet and even now
a single meal of butchers meat will
bring on recurrence of the old trouble.
In that case the meat diet caused head.
aches because in that individual the
digestive processes were not sufficiently
powerful to disintegrate the meat in the
natural way and its elements went into
the blood in the form of poisonous
properties. These impurities resulting
from imperfect digestion of meat caused
headache. In other cases they may
cause bjliousness, diarrhGa, skin erup-
lions or asthmatic troubles. When one
is sick and doesn't know why, he might
well ask himself the question whether
he may not be eating too much meat &C.,

The reason that it is not healthy to

Five years passed and the NernOus found
that their fortune had not been perma-
nently improved by their removal TO the
West. Occasional CLEANS of prosperity
had choered them, which were always
commemoratcd by great generosity to 9TH
ers, but these episodes had only served
60 form vivid contrast with the tenor Of
their lives. Though they never exchanged
words OF repining they both felt acutolN
the contrast between life as they were
obliged TO accept it, and life as they had
pictured it in their bright young dreams.
Another year went by, and the days OF
picturesque poverty were passed; actual
restitution had come. No amount of en-
ergy and eniaavor could avail against
the combination OF adverse circum-
stances that surrounded these unfortI-
nate people. The fatal Black Friday
brought the GROWING stroke Of misfortune.

Another Extension.


 The presence in Los Angeles of Mir. Mutt, president, and MT. Smith, su- perintendent of the A. & P. R. R. is pretty thorough evidence, taken in connection with the operations of a large force of men between Daggett and the Cajon Pass, that this city will soon have another transcontinental railway among the many strings to its bow. Our people are prepared to welcome the advent of all agencies of development. They extended the right hand of fellowship 10 the South ern Pacific, and, as result, have seen Los Angeles grow with wonder ful rapidity. The transformation of town of IT, 1000 inhabitants into a city of 33,ooo is one of the miracles of the last four years. New railway connections mean growth and wealth, and Angelenos understand the story too well to make it necessary that we should repeat the lesson in detail. The building of railway through the Cajon Pass is of most suspicious sig nifcance to our long suffering neigh bor San Diego. That city cannot fail to benefit by direct communication with the East. All the signs are in dicative of great awakening there, both in town and county, and already there is quite a revival of real estate values in both. San BerEardino will also shake off her lethargy and keep step to the march of progress. We rejoice in this. The prosperity of one portion of California rebounds to tn, benefit of all. Though it began to grow last, the increase of wealth and population in the southern end of the State will be much greater than any thing ever chronicled in the northern and central counties. In time we shall exemplify tine old Scriptural axiom that the first shall be last and the last first. It took some time for people to arrive 1t proper under standing of the value, extent and va riety of the resources of this portion of the State, but it has been reached at last.-Los Angeles Herald.

 He favors encouragement by legis lation of railroads and especially of north and south roads, togeth, .r with other internal improve. ments in keeping with our progress and advancement. Re
 :ompense to witnesses in criminal
 ases is urged not only on the ground of simple justice to the witness, but as a safeguard to order and society.
 Attention is called to the self sacrificing efforts of Hon. F. W. Murphy and Douglas Gray, our Con- missioner and alternate respectively, ito the. Denver, the Chicago and tbe Worlds Exposition at New Orleans, and urges an appropriation sufficient to present our exhibit in a manner worthy ot the Territory at the latter place.
 Attention is called to the Univer- sity lands in this section, which were set apart by special act of Congress in 1881 for Territorial University purposes. The local land office at Prescott, however, continued to re- ceive pre-emption and homestead fiji. ings upon this land, hence there is at the present time fourteen homestead and preemption settlers upon these University land, the Governor sug- gests the appointment of the superin- tendent of public instruction as uni versal land agent to dispose of these lands for the purposes for which they were intended, and the selection of other lands in lieu of those settled. An exhaustive review is made of our public institutions in their practical workings and proper suggestions made for improvements and reforms.
 The message is in pamphlet form, embracing some 65 pages of neatly printed matter and is masterly analysis of our Territorial affairs. It is credit to our Territory and an honor to our worthy chief executive, Gov. F. A. Tritle.

Shooting at Williams.

WILLIAMS, A. T., Jan. 26.-This place was thrown into excitement by the shooting of Paddy Boggett, a quiet individual by W. J. Pargood, alias Doc, last evening, with proba. ble fatal results. It was caused by a former difficulty between them, when Boggett inflicted severe punishment on Pargood with his fists. The latter knowing himself to be inferior in a pugilistic encounter, determined on shooting the former on the least pro- vocation. This first opportunity hap pened Sunday night, which he took advantage of and shot Boggett fatally in the abdomen. Both parties are we'll known along the line of the road. The bullet went through his bladder, and Dr. Mason says he can not live.

The Governors Message.

We have received the second bien. nial message of Governor F. A. Fri tie, which is-tdo voluminous for pub lication or reviewing in manner worthy of so lengthy and important a document.
 Referring briefly to the satisfactory condition ot our agricultural and grazing interest, he explains the causes for the seeming depression in mining circles, and leads us to be- lieve that the depression is but tempo rary.
 He cohgratulates us on the advace- ment of our people in educational and social matters, contrasting the pres ent quiet condition of affairs with the reign of lawlessness, three years ago.
 The message recommends proper memorial to Congress for the better protection of our Mexican border, and recites some instances of lawless- ness to illustrate the necessity of the measures urged.
 Gen. Crook and his Indian policy is eulogized and positive methods recommended for the stamping out of bigamy and polygamous practices.
 Much space is given to the recom- mendatlon of measures to encourage immigration, which his excellency treats in concise and practical man. ner, and ends by suggesting a unity. of action upon some given system of operation.
 The successful effort of W. J. Saunderson, of Sulphur Springs, to procure artesian water is urged as a criterion for further rewards and legis- iation in this direction. In this con nection he favors experiments witn reservoirs for the cachement of sur

Mrs. M. E. White.

This lady gave an entertainment at the school house to large and re- spectable audience on Tuesday even ing.
 Mrs. White is a fine elocutionist and an exquisite delineator of char. acter. She is a vivacious little lady in the gayer parts, provoking the mirth of the audience to the very limits of decorum, and again in her pathetic sketch she carries them to the other extreme, even into tears. In the rendition of the Kentucky Belle." we noticed young man weeping as if he had lost near relative.

UNIVERSITY LANDS.


 By an act of Congress in February, 1881, the Superintendent of Public Instruction was empowered to select seventy.two sections of land in north eastern Yavapai county. "They were at the time of selection covered with the finest of pine timber in the Territory.''
 Sections ?, 8, 10, ia, IS, r4, 20, aa, "A, 30, 2S, a6, 3a, s4, township 20 north, range 5 east.
 Sections 2, 4, 8, 10 I2, IS, IA, 20, aa, 50, aS, 20, aa, s4, township 20 north, range 6 east.
 Section ?, township st north, range 5 east.
 Sections 4, 6, IS, township 20 north, range ' east.
 Sections 2, 4, g, To, IS, 20, 22, 30, aS, township aI north, rauge 8 east.
 Sections 6, 8, IS, A, 50, aS, z6, 3a, 34, township aI north, range 7 east.
 . Sections 8, 10, IF, IA, IS, 20, 22, a4, aC, aS, 50, 34, township 2I north, range 6 east.
 Sections I2, IS, II, 20. 22, A, 26, aS, 90, 34, township aI north, range 5 east.
 The register of the local land office in Prescott shows one homestead and thirteen pre-emption filings on these lands. These entries were made af- ter the passage of the act that with, drew them rom the public domain, but before the local office had re- ceived any official notice of such withdrawal. While it would appear that the act itself conferrlng upon the Territorial authorities the power to select such lands would have justified the publication of their withdrawal in a manner sufficient to protect both the Territory and the settler, it is not now clear upon whom the responsibil- ity falls. As matter of justice, such transaction between individuals would hold good as to the settler, the other party being responsible for the acts of duly authorized agent. An error may not be malicious, but the result IS the same in a transacticn that involves dollars and cents. If the general government or Territo- rial authorities now insist that these settlers shall vacate these lands on the ground of prior right of the ter ritory they simply do it on the prin- ciple of "might makes right" and will do that which the laws of either would not or could not enforce in a like transaction between individuals. It appears strange, indeed, that these facts should first come to light in a public document of this kind, and that our chief executive in his mani fold duties should be first to realize the dangers attending these cohiplica- tions. In reference to this matter the Governors statement is plain and comprehensive to whom all credit is due for putting it properly before the present legislature and the public. Now let justice be done to the poor home-seeker. Let our legislature concede to him by special act the lands already settled upon on pay ment of the regular government price. To secure other lands is, on the part of the Territory, impossible. No ordinary compensation would re- munerate the settler at this late day and to force the abandonment by him of his chosen home Is coercion. "bet justice be done though the heatenS

IL some mathematician, one with a
mild degree Of literary Judgment and
taste, were to read the newspapers
thoroughly for a year or two, collect
data, and then make a lot of formulas

character as six is to eight-or what
ever the proportion might be-he would

stood, coming only by a sort of instinct
to those who succeed in giving what is
most acceptable to the public generally.
Mho can give a fixed law, though such
laws exist changing, of course, with
timesl One trihing item floats around
the world; another does not. To
give a practical illustration take two
little events: Not long ago it was said
in some kuglish journal that Lord Duff
ferin had been presented by some rajah
with a small trained elephant, whose
tusks had been shaved down to make
paper knives, the rajah having seen the
viceroy cut a magazines leaves with a
paper-knife made from an elephants
tusk. Either the story in full or It's con
densation has been travelling about the
world Tor six weeks.

wears an iron ring bearing the Russian
word "Nitchego"-never minds in
present circulation, frequently with the
additional account Of how he learned
what the word signihed and when he
had the ring made. These two items
travel, no doubt, because in each in
stance they relate to a prominent char
acter and because there is a flavor of
oddity about them. But the mathemati-
clans formula is still needed and would
be worth money to newspaper men.
