He is a native of MorviS, Sonora, where he has broth CT and sister living. Frederico, p years old. 5 feet inches in height, welght about l45 pounds, very dark, with features like an Indian. He IS well known about Wilcox, as is also Manuel Orozco RobleS, who is 34 years old, 5 feet 6 inches in height, and weighs about 155 or 16O pounds. The last two are very well known in Con- tention, along the San Pedro and at Wilcox. The reward amounts to about $500 apiece.

The Silver City Enterprise states that W. H. Faylor, ot tha Mimbres.in Grant county N. NJ, has a fine stand of Sanfoin. a new forage plant recent ly introduced into America from Hun gary, and which nature seems to have especially adapted to the arid regions of the world. It is claimed that the plant will grow luxuriantIy without irrigation in the hottest and dryest portions of New Mexico and Ar1zona, and is not averSe to the plains or stony ridges. The plant grows to height of about three feet, the stems long, tapering, smooth; the leaves in pairs, obIong and pointed. The plant flow CTS in Juiy and makes two crops a season. It's highly esteemed fer in creasing the flow of milk Tn cows. Tnlike alfalfa it does not produce bloat and can be fed with impunity. Seed is worth $2 to per pound. Mr. Taylor obtained hls at Carson, Neva- da. It is believed Sanfoin will prove valuable substitute for the native grasses in the Southwest.

The Symes bill makes an appropriation of S50O,OO0 to be expended in making photographic surveys of the States and Territories within the arid regions, and from such surveys to locate sites for reservoirs for the storage of water. Prof. Powell, of the Geological Survey, appeared before the committee. He claims that 50,000,000 acres of land in the arid regions could be reclaimed by means of the system of irrigation pro- posed in the bill. He believes inc proposed reclamation practicable, but says that S250,000 will be a sufficient amount to carry out the proposed sur vey. The committee will submit re- port on irrigation measures at an ear ly day.

THE ST. LOUIS MINERAL EXHIBIT.

The open letter of Mr. N. 0, Mur.
 phy to the miners of Arizona, in ref: erence to the exhibit of minerals al the ensuing exposition in St. Lotus,
 Mo- IS too long for publication in cur columns. It shows that there is al- ready a large collection of ores, near ly ten tons, at St. Louis and which will be placed on exhibition at the forthcoming Exposition. There will be no expense attached to the Arizona exhibit at St. Louis, unless someone is sent there to take charge of the col lection and represent the Territory. The United States and Arizona joint iy expended $8,650 towards defraylag the expense of the Arizona exhiLlt, at New Orleans; at Denver the cost to the Territory was S2,000; and now inc query Is, what has It profted US?
 If Arizona IS to be represented at St. Louis let 1t be by a competent mining eagneer and metallurgist, ene thoroughly acquainted with our diver sIhed mineral resources, who can give lntelllgentand reliable information on the mining districts of the Territory generally, and not man whose chief ann Is to promote the interests of some one district or section at the expense and to the detriment of other portions of the Territory.
 The Governor has no authority to appoint commissioner to St. Lotus. nor to expend public money to defray the expenses of anyone assuming to represent Arizona at that exposition. The proper and only way to do, if it is deemed advisable to send a repre- sentative there, is. for mine owners and other citizens interested in the advancement of our mining industry, to subscribe sun sufficient to defray the necessary expenses of a competent and conscientious man to represent them.

The AnzOua Weekly Gazette, pub hshed in Phoenix, May 24th, is refec- lively strong upon the alleged official misconduct of Surveyor General John Hise, which that gentleman, as an of feer of the government, can not with credit to himself, ignore without leav- ing the impression that the charge is confessed.
 We have distinct recollection that strong protests against the appoint ment of Mr. Hise were sent to the proper department in Washington, and in some instances accompanied by afidavits by his Payson. Yavapai coun. ty, neighbors, alleging his unworthi- ness of the position to which he as- pired. Those papers are, or should be, on file in Washington, and if SO, are accessible. We are informed that they were sufficiently explicit to have caused legal inquiry by the subject against whom they were directed and if adjudged defamatory entitled hlm to exemplary damages.
