never be slit cross-wise, either in kill
ing or In taking off bid. The skin lisa
slit from the chin down the brisket, in
straight line to the tail; it is then cut
around each hoof; the hind legs are
slit behind over the gambrei, but the
front legs are slit up in front, over the
knee. This leaves the skin in good
shape for finishing the leather. The
head and legs are first carefully skim
ned, and all cutting Of the skin is
avoided. The skin is then easily
drawn off by taking hold of it firmly,
and pulling 1t steadily. 1t is then
spread out evenly on floor, and sailed
with fine salt. If there is but one, II is
best to stake il out as soon as the salt
has taken, and dry at once in cool,
shaded place. If there are more than
one, they are laid upon each other and
sailed quite freely, and afterwards they
are thoroughly dried. If the skins are
to be kept on hand, they should be
closely watched for moths or grubs.

FOR The BUTCHERS.

The hides of farm-slaughtered ami.
mails have poor reputation, because
OF the careless way in which they are
stripped. Calfskins and sheep-pelts
are reduced one-haIf in value by being
cut and gashed, and improperly STREET
ched. When hide is stripped of, it
should be stretched at once, and peg
ged out to dry, with the flesh side
upward. 1t is rolled up, or thrown in

The centipepe is not pretty insect.
He runs too much to legs. Once l
thought them of no use, but after see
ing q lot of little Chiricahua Indian
,papooses pulling centipedes from their
holes and greedily devouring them,
legs, poison and all, / no longer doubted
the wisdom and beneficence OF their
creation. In the course of my check
cred career / have had several adven-
lures with centipedes and always came
out second best. A centipede can raise
a blister on mans body quicker
than red hot iron, and ii you don't
Immediately apply remedial poultrlce
of pounded prickly pear and dose your
self inwardly with post whiskey-
which latter is warranted to kill any
thing but an army mule-the resultant
effects may be serious. Centipedes
usually attack their victim al night,
when he is asleep and can't defend
himself. They are armed with about
200 little lancers convientIy Iashed to
the toe Of each foot-0f which they
have several--and at the base of each
lance is tiny sack of venom. If a
centipede crawis across your body
which he'll most likely do il you lie
down anywhere within half mile of
him-you'll have no difficulty in fol-
lowing his trail and you'll remember
his visit for weeks. No man ever died
from the bite Of a centipede but have
known one to make q man wish he
were dead. --Philadelplsia Times.

The Physicians, Investigator has
watched for a number of years the ef-

it makes them weak, mentally and

Mir. Thos. J. Durand came up yester- day from Salero and left this morning on lSs return ,IIp. This camp h about twelve miles east of Tubac and about the same distance nLrtheast of Calabasas
 ana it contains some of tine graudest old mines in the territory. Some twenty | odd years ago wOrk was done on the Salero miues. but the Indians at that time We're numerous and gave the nm CTS DO end of trouble, nually driving them all away. Since that time work has been resumed in desultory mapner and the pros Iects of the camp always remained good, notwItGstanding the lack of tangible profits. The disaster of the old Salero company, through vicissi- tudes enough to wreck the best mining camp in the world, has been succeeded by new life based upon practical expe- rience aud a proper business energy. A new company has just efected a five stamp mill which will be ready to start up next week. They have two FTue NHnDlng machines to concentrate ores that will not mill, and they are fully prepared to treat any class of ore found in that district. The mill IS under the personal supervision ot Col L. ID. Wsddell, practical inning man. and Harry PhalOn, who IS also Ot the management of the Calabasas, Tucson 6 Northwestern railroad.
 Mir. DuTaud WIll begin work st once on his group of mines and several other parties are taking cut ore to keep ths mill in motion. A large quan- tity of good ore is now on the Various dumps and from 2UO to 3OO tons are at the mill Tor reducti ID. The prospt ct Tor this enterprise seems tO be very flat terlng. ihe null will run on custom ores until the mines of the mill com pany are more fully developed when ii will run exclusively on their ores.
 The CraDz boys are taking out very tine ore for shipment from their mines and are developing splendid properties.
 John Magee will very soon start up work on his fine group, with prospects that should make him feel happy.
 The glorious Fourth will be observed at Salero in grand style. There are from forty to ufty miners in that neigh borhood who will congregute at tbe company's headquarters, where suitable buildings and tents supplement the pleasant shades of the trees, and Ed- dresses will be made by Col. o. ID. Pos ton and others. Col. Poston was at the Sslero over a score of years ago and his 1 present experience vill be contrasted with those of that dangerous period. l Col. Cameron King. his wife and two 1 sons, and some others left to-day for Salero to spend the Fourth. Mr. Du- rand will take down a lot of fireworks and a glorious Fourth will be cele- l brated.
