merely local interest. It fiay well be
that present inhabitant of New York
has more at stake IN the schools of a
small village in Tennessee or Arkansas,
to which he in the course of events may
move, than in those of New York itself
The schools of community rebound
not only to the benefit of those immedi-
ately supporting them, but often, and
quite as much, to other and more distant
communities. No community can be
sure of reaping the Legitimate fruits of
its efforts in the cause of education if its
sister communities are allowed to neg

INFLUENCE OF PUBLIC SCHOOL-TEACH-
ERS.
Most people do not appreciate the
moral work done by the teachers in the
school term, quite apart from any work
in books and lessons. The 'coursc of
study" is changed from year to year,
and we hope it is improving, because,
gradually, more attention is given to
the kind of instruction needed by the
children. But, after all, it is their daily
intercourse with refined and conscien-
tious teachers which really educates the
children. and it is of far more conse-
quence than any technical system pur-
sued. Strangers who visit our public
schools are puzzled to know where we
keep the children of 'the very poorest
families" They do not recognize them
in the rows of neat-loOking boys and
girls before them, and are unwilling to
believe that the children sitting there,
with white aprons, and nice shoes and
stockings, and clean faces and hands,
have come from the most squalid part of
Boston, from "hOmes" that do not de-
serve the name. But their teachers
knowing all about these homes, have
been daily teaching them the self-respect
that comes from cleanliness and neat
ness. They are even ready TO supply
the shoes and stockings and clean
aprons which the little waits need that
they may come to school! The truant.
officer, whose name is dread To
the idle hoy who shirks his school, is in
reality kind friend to the poorer
boys, who form a greater number of the
daily 'truants." He has his closet full
of boots and shoes, contributed by
friends, and thus he is ready to supply
them to those who would really stay
for want of them,-EdWard EUeret

\ Rig Mine.

In company with some friends. Thurs day, We visited the now famous Wood
 becker and West End mines. We found
 Messrs Burns S Kennedy and a small force of men busy taking out and saking some very fine ore, in fact some of the
 best ore we ever saw. Mir. Burns has done considerable prospecting on the claims since he went out and has found good ore, containing plenty of horn-siiver in a. least n dozen new places on the mines. and some of the ore will assay several thousand dollars ton. They have sack ed about five tons of high grade ore within the past three days, sll of which was taken from surface work. The ore sacked will sample, undoubtedly, seyer- al hundred dollars per ton. While we were there yesterday, fourteen inch of ore was struck in the big ledge. as 1t IS called, that we think will assay at least 5000 per ton. This shoot of ore is an entirely new one and We cannot see how the former owners of the claim ever missed it, or in fact ever failed to disco yer the other rich ore so hberally and evenly distributed through the two veins. The only reasonable construction that can be given IS that the former own CTS were not sufficient judges of miner al bearing rock 10 know when they had found good thing, and were really hunting for gold or lead. They found considerable of the latter but had very few assays made and dId not suppose 1t would pay, though the late assays from this character of ore averaged very high, going frcm 90 to l,70O ounces in silver and from 40 to SD per cent lead. The chloride ore will assay from Si0 to sev- eral thousand dollars per ton, and plenty of it can eRsIly be got out that will sam pie from POO to 800 ounces per ton, while without sorting and with reduction works near by, all the ore will pay far above the ore now being run through Tn dividend paying mines. All these mines need is some capital and ordinary good management to place them in the front ranks Of dividend paying mines and we| know of no better investment for capita! than can be found right here. The ore in quantities is there and all that k requlT ed now Is brains and money.--PInsl County Record.

An Fl Paso dispatch speaks in the following terms of the killing of the late Capt. Crawford, in Mexico:
 The news of the killing of Captain Crawford in the Sierra Madre noun tsiDs, is greatly regretted by the army officers stationed at Fort Bliss, near this city. Captain Crawford was very popular and was considered one of the best officers in the army. He was hur- ried from Fort Stockton, Tex, by Gen. Crook to take leading part Tn the war against the hostiles, and the termin8- ton of depredatiOns is mainly attributed to hls skill and energy. His untImely death IS attributed entirely to the stupid carelessness of the Mexican forces, who disregarded all warning and continued to fire. Officers who served in the held state that American commands Tn the Sierra Madres were often during the summer fired into by Mex. can troops, who were cooperating with them. Lieutenant Davis and his men were shot at number of times and barely escaped death, and Lieutenant Elliott, with two soldiers and eleven scouts were oveTtaken by band of 200 Mexican troops, who began shooting at once, and killed one scout and wound ed another. Elliott and the balance of hIs men were then placed in dungeon until the next day, when another body of Americans arrived and explained the mistake and had them released. Capt Crawford was highly honored Tn Phiia- delpbia, his native city, 10 winch hIs re- mains will be taken from Mexico for in- terment. lie was a Quaker. He en- tered the civil war as a private md came out with high honOrs.

How the human system ever reeovers from the bad effects of the nAuseous medicines often literally poured into Il for the suppositive relief of dyspepsia liver complaint, constipation, rheuma- tism and other ailments, is a mystery,

CaffIe Thieres al Work.

Mir. T. T. Hunter on Sunday last dis covered that one of hIs cattle, evidently yearling, had been kllled. He fonnd
 the place where the anImsl was killed
 and loaded into & wagon. He followed the trail of the wogon to within R mIle of Wilcox, where it was lost. NIT. Hun- ter the next day came into Wilcox and made search through the Mexican q uar- ter of town for some trace Of the animal as he has no doubt the thief or thieves live here. Although nothing was dis covered. there is no question but what the thieves reside here: Mir. Hunter has been a serious loser by cattle thieves and states that within the past year no less than thirty head of cattle have been stolen from his range. He believes about all of them were killed by Me1l- cans and brought to Wilcox. There IS evidently a gang of cattle thieves ID this town, who should be ferre.ed out and
 punished. The large reward of $500 of- fered by the Southeastern Association, of which MT. Hunter IS a member, for the arrest aud conviction of stock thieves, should be sufficient incentive to our of- ficers to exert themselves in hunting down those robbers.-WilcoI Stockmsn.

A few years ago IL was alleged that a good quality of fruit could not be raised in this valley. but that illusion was dis pelled by practical demonstration. Later the same thing was alleged of grapes and that fslalcy was disproved the same indisputable way. Many of our people now believe that strawberries cannot be proftably grown here, but :he people of Mesa, for seven months of last year, secured a larger yield of the same number of vines than Eas ever harvested in the United States. The greater ad- vantsyes We possess in such cultivation is that without artificial means our crops may be put in the markets fully a month earlier than those of southern Calitornis.-PhenixG Gazette.

 The Specie Paying mill will probabI, start up the first of next week on custom ore.
 NIT. '. ID. Hammond's family bgv. moved into the old Champion residence ! ICeir furbiture arrived from California last week and they are now very com. fortably situated.
 The Montpelier caInp is CoIng to ha an anu-Chinese one. The men eupIoy. ed and those interested in the mines there say that they do not want any Chi. namen there and won't have them. Good enough.
 The Silver King WAS the only incor- porated mining company ID Arizona that pad dividend last year. The King paid S2OO,OOO and We consider it safe to say that the net profit realized from mines m Final county alone during the year lSS5 WAS at least S5O0,0OO.
 NIT. Leroy Tucker, of Mineral Hill. was Tn town thIs week and had a number of assays male from the Lelo mine. The average Of said assays from n new shoot of re was S67.05. The incline IS now down about 40 feet and the pay streak has wldened out to a width of seven feet.  They now have about 9 tons of good ore on the Specie Paying mill dunn, and 1t IS expected that the mill will be started up in few days on this ore. Twenty burros are now employed iu packing the ore from the mine to the mill.
 Native silver was struck in the Wood becker thls week, ~ small quantities. The character of the ore in which horn silver IS so literally distributed on the surface Is that which at depth contains large bodies of the pure stuff, and it is the expressed opinion of several mining experts, who stand very high in their profession, that large bodies of native silver will be encountered in the mines of this district when depth is attained. These opinions were given at Q time when uo sale was dependent upon fav- orab,e report and therefore mOrS conti- dence can be placed upon such report than any other.

Prolific cattle.

Pima county, Arizona, has the most prolific cattle in the world. We have about 5000 head of cattle in this c1un- ty, and ship about 9O,OO0 head per an Dum without diminishing our stock. IL would appear by this that every COW, bull. steer and calf bore calf each year. This is not actually the case, however, and still our first proposition IS substan- italy correct. It is not the breeding COWS, bulls, steers and calves, but the smugglers across the Sonora line west of Nogsles. that keep up the regular supply for shipment.-Nogales Frontier.

. Mexican Military outrage.

IL would be charitable to believe, il Lieutenant Maus did not state positive ly to the contrary, that the action of the Mexican soldiers who fired on the detachment of Captain Crawford, in which that gallant officer was killed, arose from mistake. TLIs presump- ton Is removed, however, by the asser- tion, several times repeated, that they were told they were firing upon friends and not enemies.
 An understanding, in the form of a stipulation, has for some time existed between the United States and Mexico, to the effecI that the troops of either na- ton might pursue hostile Indians into the territory of the other without either being held to accountability. The com maDder of these offending troops could hardly have been ignorant of this fact. He will be offered an opportunity to ex- plain to hIs own government after ours has made a demand for such an expla- nation, with an intimStion that it shall be thorough and satisfactory, in order to ayoId disagreesble consequences.-S.

With an overwhelming force and secure our camp and effects. l do not believe they had any idea We were so strong or had taken such a strong position, for which We were indebted to the hostiles, fearing a fresh conflict.
 As the scouts seemed much excited and would not leave the rocks, l de- cided to make filters for the wounded and to move the next day. This l did with the advice of Dr. Davis, who re- ported 1t was matter of only a short time as to Captain Crawford's life, and besides he was insensible to pain snd would remain SO until he died. He died on the 18th inst, having lived seven days and four hours, remaining unconscious till his death.
 On the following morning, the 12th inst, I sent six of the captured ponies to the Mexicans with 8 request that they return receipts. busted myself with fixing for the march and getting filters ready for the wounded men, when heard the interpreter.
