The New Mining Law.

Senator Stewards mining bill which has passed the United States Senate, and will no doubt meet with the ac- quiescence of the House, corrects large number of defects in mining laws. The following are among the important changes;
 The amount of work necessary to hold placer claim is reduced from $l00 to $50, and limits the amount of placer ground that may be included in patent to 160 acres. It fixes F August as the commencement and end of the year of annual work, instead of midnight on the 31st of December, as now fixed by law The change was made to allow relocation to be made in daylight and in summertime, wEea the mountains are free from snow. It requires when the annual work is per formed the filing of an affidavit show ing the work performed, in the county recorders office of the county in which the mine is situated. It allows the afidavits which are required to be made under the mining law to be sworn to before any officer authorized to aG- minister oaths in any state or territory in the United States. It reserves the right-of-way through or over any min ing claim for roads, ditches, canals, cuts and tunnels for the purpose of working other mines as now provid d by law, and provides that any damag s occasioned thereby to the mine owner shall be assessed and paid in the man. ner provided by law for the conden- nation of private property for public use in the states and territories in which the mines are situated. It also provides thatno person shall acquire by location or posses sion more than one mining claim on tie same vein, nor S a any person relocate claim which he has previously located. This is to prt vent repeated locations of the same claim by the same person to evade the provisions requiring annual work. TT c restriction to one claim on the saB c lode Is really what the original l " meant, but it has been construed otherwise, and this declaration makes its meaning certain.

The Promised Land.
TPhenix Arizonan.1

Agriculturists and horticultutists are peopling every portion of the Ter ritory. In the northern countries wherever a body of land is found over which water can be turned, there is the homesteader ready to reclaim it. Tests are being made of artesian wells and water storage in Yavapai county, which are adding materially to the mining, stock raising and agricultural prosperity of that section.
 In the counties of Yuma, Final and Pima large canals have been projected, and are being pushed to completion, that will convert to fields and orchards several hundred thousand acres of des- ert land. The Tucson land office never did so thriving a business. In this county three large canals have been projected, two of which are nearly completed; they will in the aggregate, add more than hundred thousand acres of land to our productive soil. Merchants in all parts of Arizona nev- CT did better business Profits are good, and the losses less than at any time in the past.
 The truth is, that the prejudices created against Arizona as a land of outlawry and savagery, land of veno- nous reptiles and poisonous insects, of arid plains, desoiate deserts, water less skies and tropical heat, are being removed. The investigator finds here an enterprising, industrious, pro gressive people; a soil unrivaled in its productive capabilities; climate peer less upon the continent; where equal and just laws protect the humbles t citizen and punish the highest crim:- nal; where everyone is impressed with the latent resources of the country, and each in his sphere is working with might and main to build up the terri tory of their adoption. With economy enforced in our county and territorial administrations, our county and terri torial bonds find ready sale in the moneyed centers, and capital is lend ing its money to every legitimate en- terprise of internal development and l improvement.

Parlng Children for Ererrthing.

Three young ladies were walking down Woodward avenue the other day, the damsel in the middle talking volubly in a very audible tone. She said:
 ''Why, they are paid for everything. They got $10o each for not having their ears pierced; S1o0 each for not becoming engaged until they are 21, and when the rest of the family went abroad and didn't take -, she cried ard got $100.

Rrief Diorrapbv of Svdnev Smith.

The Rev. Sydney Smith was born at Wood ford, Essex, England, in I'll; in 1845 he died. He is chiefly remembered now as famous wit but his own times knew him also as powerful writer and preacher, an equal master of reasoning and ridicule and the enemy of all hypocrisy and meanness.
 Sydney Smith edited the first number of the famous Edinburgh Review. In his capacity as rector and canon every one soon learned to love him, for he daily sought tho good of his flock. He was prime favorite with children, who greatly enjoyed his stories as well as the sweets and pennies he carried in his pockets for their benefit,
 His powers of conversation remained vigorous to the end of his days Those who knew him best agreed that he might have been called with equal justice the ''wise" as well as the ''witty canon"

 western passenger agent. In March, 1871, Thomas A. Scott was elected president of the Union Pacific Railway company, and Mir Kimball, who had been intimately as- sociated with him in the service of the Pennsylvania company for twelve con- secutive years, was appointed by Mir. Scott to the position of general passenger and ticket agent of the Union Pacific. During the same year Mir. Kimball went to Omaha, where he has ever since re- sided. During this long period-nearly seventeen years-Mr. Kimball has re- mained with the Union Pacific through out all changes of administration. For ten years he filled the office to which he was first ppointed-general passenger and ticket agent. He was then promoted to be assistant general manager, which office he filled for four years The next three years he was the general traffic manager of the Union Pacific system, which had grown to vast proportions and required a man of great executive ability, such as Mir. Kimball is ac- knowledged to be, at its head. On Sept 1, 1887, he was appointed assistant to First Vice President Potter, and on the death of the latter was made general manager. Mir. Kimball is very thorough and sys- tematic railroad man. He is master of every detail, and in the science of rail reading, especially from a commercial standpoint, he has but few equals in this country. His long connection with the Union Pacific attests the high esteem ir which his services are held. Mr. Kimball Was married in 1854 to Mary P. Rogers daughter of Nathaniel P. Rogers, Esq, ot New Hampshire. They have four children

The Anglo-Saxon kings kept greyhounds, and in the time of the Danish king, Canute, these animals were so highly esteemed that no one under tho rank of a gentleman or freeholder was allowed to keep them, and when nobleman went abroad he was usually accompanied by his greyhounds. Somo of the English kings were very fond of them, such as Henry II and King John. This lat ter monarch devoted much time to coursing, and the Isle of Dogs received its name from being the place where he kept his dogs. It was King John who gave the famous grey hound Gelert, who killed the wolf, to the Welsh prince, Llewellyn.
 Charles I was fond of greyhounds, as Sir Philip Warwick, who was secretary to the unfortunate monarch, tells us in his memoirs He says: ''Methinks, because it shows his dislike of common court vice, it is not unworthy the relating of him, that one evening his dog, scratching at his door, he commanded me to let in Gipsy; whereupon took tho boldness to say, Sir, perceive you love q greyhound better than you do a spaniel Yes, says he, flor they equally love their masters and yet do not flatter them so much ,"

Something About "zanto Curran.s."

The word currant is said to be cor- ruption of Corinth, a city from which once came all the Greek entrants. Tho entrants, commonly called zante, arc really raisins, produced from grape that grows no larger than peas, like the American wild or fox grapes, and hangs in punches only three inches long. These grapes are dried in the sun, and then stored in bulk, where the sugar that exudes from them makes them into masses so compact that they have to be dug apart by force when wanted. They are prepared for shipment by being put into casks and packed into solid mass by being trodden by the feet of the na- tives.-New York Sun

One of the Seas Dangers.

A curious acoustic phenomenon, some times observed at sea, has been termed by M. Fizeau, the mirage of sound, :" from its analogy to certain well known phenomena of light. The sound waves are defected upward to a very marked extent under the influence of strata of air of various temperatures, and to this effect are ascribed numerous collisions between vessels having powerful fog signals.

 The greyhound is native of the British islands, and from very early period the English variety has presented the same ap- pearance as in modern times; but it appears to have been a bolder and stronger dog in former days, for we read of greyhounds killing wolves. The more formidable kinds of wild animals were early extinguished in England, and tho greyhound, having been bred for centuries for swiftness alone, has lost it's courage and its form has been more slender and it's cont finer

Shall Women be Allowed TO Vote.

The question of female suffrage has
agitated the tongues and pens of reform
ers for many years, and good arguments
have been adduced for and against it.
Many of the softer sex could vote intelli-
gently. and many would vote as their
husbands did. and give no thought to the
merits of political issue They would
all vote for Dr. Pierces Favorite Pre-
scnption, for they know it is boon to
their sex. 1t is unequaled for the cure
of leucorrhea, abnormal discharges.
