A Plurky ROV.

An Italian, his. wife, and little boy 3 years old, were driving along the Forestville Toad, near Fulton, one day this week, when the young member of tue party discovered a rattlesnake stretched at frll length by the side of the road. Before his father could check him he had climbed down from the vehicle and grabbed the reptile, fortunately close by the head, and started to climb into the wagon again. His father stopped the horses and commanded the young man to throw the snake away, but the boy would not do it. in fact could not, for the hideous thing had coiled itself arcund his arm and was wagging itS tail in his face, making music, blood-curd- ling under the circumstances. By this time the mother and father were almost wild with night and anxiety for their sons safety, but the little fellow did not seem 10 mird it in the least, and held the fat head within eight or ten inches of his face and mockcd the darting in and out O the fiery red tongue. Cautioning his son to keep tighter hold on the snake, the father climbed out of tine vehicle and, drawing his stilstto, took firm hold of the snake over his sons hand and severed the head from the body and unwound the latter from the boys arm and measured it. With the head the snake measured three feet and ten and one-half inches.- Santa Rosa Democrat.

Judge Haynes.

The following remarks were made by Judge Haynes, Of Tucson, upon his being elected Chairman of the Republican Territorial Convention in Tucson:
 GENTLMEN OF THE CoNvENTIoN-I am grateful to you for the honor you have conferred upon me, in calling upon me to preside, even temporarily, over Republican convention of the Territory of Arizona. It is an honor that any man may well be proud of. 1 am proud of the party to which 1 have belonged since its. organization. I am proud of it's principles; I am proud of the men who are its repre- resentatives; and especially am I proud of that great intelligence which characterizes the great mass of the party, net only in this territory, but in every state and territory of our Union. The history Of the party and it's record is one of which no man need be ashamed. It becomes and is the duty of every man, who has the well-being of his country at heart, as it seems to me, to support it with q singieness of purpose; to support it for the sake of its principles; and those principles should be nearer and dearer to all than anything in the land. It, therefore, becomes us as Republicans to meet together as friends, as brothers, as those who have been united together for years of peace and prosperity; years in which we have held control, and years in which we have been in the minor ity, and so let us stand to the end. If we so stand we shall succeed. I have no hesitation in saying that if we act wisely. if we act according to our principles, if we act according to the principles of our party, we shall suc- ceed in nominating the ticket that will be elected. In my opinion this is Republican year, and we will carry the Territory of Arizona hy & larger majority than we have ever carried it befolc [Applause].

An Indian Murdered and Gre.
kSllt2I.


 On Thursday morning, the doaC
 body of an Ildian Was found on tht railroad track, near Fl Rio. Upor examination it vas ascertained tha the unfortunate mans throat was cut with some sharp instrument and lm- mediately afterwards the corpse was put on the track. After a searching investigation. the following facts came to light. About three days ago Fran. cisco, the murdered man, arrived from Maricopa and went into camp near Fl Rio. Yesterday Slimdick, a Mohave, accompanied by two com- rades, Yuma Indians, went down to where the Diegino was camped. Francisco was ordered to stand up; he did so, and the two Yumas held his hands while the Mohave stuck a sharp knife into his throat keeping up his cutting until the unfortunate man fell lifeless at the heartless assas- sins feet. The Mohave does not deny the killing and claims that he had to do it, as the deceased was possessed of an evil spirit and had witched his brother Mohave Gun, who died a year ago. The murder of one Indian by another is unlawful and this bar barous superstition should be sup pressed by the strong arm of the law The murder occurred in San Diego county and it will undoubtedly re- ceive the proper attention of the of fcers of the law.
 Two days ago the writer and a party of friends, went across the Colorado rivor, to view the cremation ceremonies Of Francisco the murder ed Indian. Just as Ihe glorious sun set ref 4cted back thousand bright t,nts to the darkening sky, the "ran- cheria" was reached. On prye of mesquite and ironwood repcsed the lifeless body of the "good" Indian. About twenty squaws and bucks, were making the welkin ring with cries of lamentation and mourning. In little while, tall, "dried up" looking warrior raised his right hand, and all, observed the strictest of silence. The old chief delivered a long harangue and at signal from hlm the deceased Indians horse was killed, and after a the quivering body, the carcass was thrown beside the pile that was soon to consume all that had once been a human being. Another signal from the master of ceremonies, and the fire was started. Immediately "walk around" ensued, and time was kert to one of those lengthy monotonous and unmusical Indian songs. The night was dark, and as the flames hungrily licked the dry wood mount ing higher and higher, the singing became louder and louder, finally ending in frenzied shrieks. As the funeral pile succumed and became mass of crumbIing coals, feast of corn, mel ms and horse meat was SC: out and the worthy sons of the forest fell to and enjoyed the repast with the gusto of an epicure eating some extra tid bit. As we returned home, the bright moonlight illumined the foliage of the mesquite with a silvery lustre, and gave wierd appearance to the surrounding low-lands; ft- ting "drop-curtain" to the play just ended.-Yuma Sentinel.

Points Which Should BE Taken Into Com
sideratlon In Laying Them.
An extensive manufacturer of tile
says that about a year since a farmer
came to him to pay for his tile, and said
that he thought tile drains would last
longer than they do; he said; "Thoso
tile l got Of you seven years ago did first
rate for three or four years, and then
commenced to give out, and now they
only drain about one-third the distance
at the lower end" / learned that he
put the tile in without having water to
grade, and did not level his ditch. l
advised him to put seven-inch where he
had three-inch, and put them in twice as
deep and grade by water. l think l
would be safe in saying that one-half to
one-third of all the tile that has been put
in to the present time will have to be
taken up and laid more perfectly. Not
until within the last few years have tile
been put in any thing like deep enough,
and especially that which was put in
first; the drains were mostly not graded
"a great many supposed that the force
of the water would keep them washed
out whether it was graded or not; but
after a few years they found that the
three-inch tile, put down one and one
half feet deep across the ten-acre field,
did not thoroughly drain the whole
field. Chicago ISLANDERS.

rocket Pea-Soup.

l was talking to friend of mine last
week about the different modes of re-
lieving distress that have been adopted,
when he pulled out of his pocket a
small slab wrapped up in paper. This,
he said, "a have given in numerous
cases. 1t is the German pea-soup,
which gave bone and muscle during
the last war. This slab costs three
pence; it makes seven pints of pea
soup, requiring no addition to it, for
meat is pressed in with the peas. "
Well, tried it, and better pea-soup
never tasted. A packet would make a
sufficient dinner for family. My
friend bought the slabs that he gives
away of grocer who has a shop in
George Lane, Folkestone. and who i'm
ports them from Germany.-Labosl-
