Any one wishing to expeTi- ment is at liberty to do SO, but We can- not vouch for its success ct IS a fact not generally known that if ore holds his breath, wasps, bees and hornets can be handled with impunity. Tl.e skin becomes sting-prOof, and holding the insect Icy the feet, and givin,; it full liberty of action, you can see b.r drive her weapon against the inpe.ietrable surface with force that lifts her body with every stroke; but let the smallest quantity of air escape from the lungs, and the sting will penetrate at once. l have never seen an exception to this in twenty-five ye r' ohscrva: on. have taught young ladies with very del icate hands to astonish their friends by the performance of this feat, an,l saw one so severely stung az to req uire the services of physician througi: laugh. ing at witty remark oi her si. ter, for getting that laughing required breath.

 On his return to Tucson. Marshal Meade told the truth when he informed the Star that Prescott Is enjoying s greater degree of prosperity than it has experienced during the last four years. This IS largely due to the revival of mining industries tributary to that ,oint. There is large quantity of ore 'eing taken out and shipped or reduced here, and promising discoveries are 'eing made. It is eviden; that new rs of mining and general prosperity 'as set in for northern Arizona"

The Atlantic ant Pacific Railroad
 Taxes.

The Courier was in error in statins
 that the Atlantic & Pacific railroad had
 paid their taxes according to the com
 promise made with the supervisors
 As stated in the last issue of this paper
 Judge w. c. Hazledine. on Monday 1 paid the taxes on the land grant owned
 by the company and on real estate
 owned in Flagstaff, amounting .o over y3,OO9 These taxes were paid as
 originally assessed, and not under any compromise Judge Hazledine was also prepared to settle the railroad taxes.
 as per compromise with the supervisors, but some doubt arose as to the validity
 of the compromise, and he had received
 letter warning him that if tke taxes
 were paid accord .ng to the compromise
 the company wOull be sued for the bal. ance. Under these circumstances he refused to pay the taxes unless lac could receive receipt in full, and per fectly legal and valid. He therefore deposited two drafts, payable to himss If, but unendOrsed, with w. c. Bash ford, taking personal receipt of the latter for them. One of tn. m is for $22, ,Sl7.3, and the ether for $2D, ,OS5. A Judge Hazledine agrees With the County treasurer, that if at any time within ninety days, the legislative assembly of Arizona shall pass an act which will enable the proper officials Oi Yavapai county to release the Atlan tic X Pacific railroad company from any further claims fer taxes, penalties, etc, for the years 1887 and 1888 upon the payments of the above amonats, OF ! I! by judgment, the .upreme court. or l otherwise any adjustment or arrange ment, Is made whereby upon t,:e pay. ment ef these drafts the tax li' n afore- ! said can be extinguished and the railroad company and it's property fully eleased and discharged from said taxes or any lien, charge or liability thereof, then he will endorse said drafts so that thc same can be 'ollected by the proper Ulcer of .he county, or at the optien of the latter, redeem the same in cas'l. upon such officer giving good and sufficient 'cccipt in full of said taxes and any and III costs.
 From this, it will be seen that the ailroad has not yet paid its taxes, hOngh willing to dc so according to he terms of the compromise But it will be from thirty to sixty days before he county can realize on the cOmpa- Iy's paper.

Ed. Register-l just received copy
of your paper of March 22d, 1888, and
was glad to read the home news once
more; but as for making that my home
again I don't think I eyer shall. AS
to the ice and snow, I don't prefer
either one Of them in mine. 1t is very
pleasant in California, both winter and
summer.
Times In California are getting better
ali the time. The Cinnamon are leav-
ing very fast, which will make times
much better and wages much higher.
Employments are growing larger and
more every year. 1t is good farming
country - said to be the best wheat
growing state in thee United States.
It's just the place for Missourians. for
they always like fruits, and for those
who follow farming California is the
place for them, though land is very
high here. 1t is cheaper to rent land
than buy it. They raise but little corn
here; the most grain is such as wheat.
barley, oats and rye, but many kinds
of fruits and vegetables. Fruits have
begun to come into market now, such
as cherries, apricots and Strawberries.
