IT is really astonishing to what depth of fiendish barbarity civilized being can descend when he permits his passions to go unbridled. Last Sunday, at Sunset, Texas, a prominent physician named Dr. Wiley, stripped his wife of all her clothing and beat her unmereifully. She escaped from the house into the streets entirely nude, her lord and master chasing her and firing pistol at her as she ran. At last she found safety in a neighbor's house and her protector" was dis armed and placed in jail. Mrs. Wiley will die and the fend whose inhuman- ity took her life should die also, like a dog upon the end of a rope.

Where ouin,ne Comes From.

The mountains of Peru constitute what might be appropriately called ''Quinine land" There the cinchona reaches per- lection when 1t is not disturbed by the axes of the cascarilleros or bark searchers, and there the rich lanceolate leaves of the healing tree reflect the golden beams of @ tropical sun. Almost constantly ex- petitions leave Cuzco and other Peruvian cities in search of the cinchona tree. The most of these are conducted with great secresy. for the discovery of good group of cinchonas is sure to make the fortune of the leader of the party. Rival dis coverers watch one another like hawks. They try to bribe the sepia colored casca- rilleros who have sold their services to others, and very often Peruvian gold brings a whole season's preparations and toll to naught. Philadelphia Times.

TIE pomologists of Arizona, and par ticularly those of this valley, have much to learn in the successful culture of fruits. The experience gained in California or in the east cannot always be relied upon under the peculiar con ditions existing here. Varieties that flourish well in California sometimes fail entirely in this valley under like treatment, while inferior species there prove superior here. The methods of cultivation and pruning are also some what different and the labors of the next several years must be more or less of an experimental nature, the results of which will affect the future practice in this line. It has been sufficiently demonstrated, however, that all tho fruits of the temperate zone thrive ex- ceedingly well here, while many of the .semi-tropical fruits do as well as 1T Southern California. The grape, al $ mond, walnut, fig, pear, apricot, peacf plum, prune, nectarine, pomegranate &luince, and perhaps few other kinds attain a rare degree of perfection here eome of them producing several crop fluring the same season. The cultiva 7tion of r,isin grapes is evidently de < Btined to become the leading industry pf the valley, as the grape grows un 7 usually sweet here, and it can be curet easily and without artificial proces Turing the warm and dry summers tha prevail. And yet, as we have said, tn experience of the next few years mus give the text from which all the futur
 success must be taken.

THE spirit of enterprise that has be- gun so auspiciously the reclamation and development of this valley promis- es to increase in vigor and strength during the coming several years, until the preScnt desert becomes an attrac- tive succession of cultivated fields, wine yards and orchards. The aggregate work involved in this transformation is stupendous one, but the rich re- ward is sufficient incentive to its full fillment in the shortest space of time possible. Several hundred thousand acres of land will be reclaimed, and the present season will witnesss the clear ing and cultivation of more than fifty thousand acres thereof, and the entire amount will be cultivated within three years. The present value of cultivated land with water right, in this valley ranges from thirty-fve dollars to one hundred per acre, and at the lowest rate a created valuation of nearly two million dollars will be the result of the present years progress. But the larg- CT portion of these new lands will be set out to vineyards and orchards, giv- ing them much greater value than above quoted and marking a far better ratio of progress. This is no fancy picture of the imagination, but it is the reasonable, logical and tangible result of the building of the grea canal and the contingent settlement of the lands along it's course.

Spiders That Capture Birds,

The tarantula of South America is SO large and powerful that it attacks birds. Bell, the naturalist, found web stretched across tree in which were entangled two birds, one in the clutch of the spider. In some places they often bite the feet of horses and cause their death. A natural ist in the Amazon country reports seeing the native children leading about the huge spiders by threads of fibre wound about their bodies, as boys do dogs in our own country.-C. F. Holder.

Vim. Sparks, better known here abouts as "Timbeline," had a lively time with bear on or near his ranch about ten days ago. MT. Sparks had set trap for a mountain lion, and on visiting 1t found that bear had been caught and had walked off with the whole outfit. He started in pur- suit with Winchester and trailed him for some time before coming upon his bearship. When he did find him bruin was mad, and in stepping back to avoid an infuriated rush Timberline fell, face under, down hill. The bear lost no time in taking advantage of the situation and seizing Timberline at the under side of his thigh gave him a lively shaking up. The victim of this rough usage, however, held fast to his rifle and managed to throw in q cartridge. He twisted around and just as the bear let go to take a fresh hold MT. Sparks fired, the ball enter ing the brute's mouth. This ended the battle. But Sparks was badly hurt, one of the tendons of his leg DIu1Seu ana Dltten SeNerely- he bound up his wounds as best he could and walked half mile to spring, where he washed and again fixed up his injury. From here he walked five miles and half to his camp, subse- quently mounting his horse and rid ing into town. He received medical aid six days after the occurrence. The wound is healing nicely, but it is thought that he may suffer a slight stiffness of his leg as the result of his battle with bruin.-Clifton Clarion.

Yuma Sentinel.I

Two old prospectors, Andy Hunter and Ike Goodwin, met in Yuma a few months ago for the first time in many years. Andy Hunter was in town on visit, beingin the employ of Geo. Nor ton, on the Mohawk canal. His friend Goodwin had just arrived from Califor- mia where he had succeeded in getting "broke." Hunter goodnaturedly divid- ed his wealth with his old friend, and after few days sightseeing the pair separated, Hunter returning to the Mohawk canal and Goodwin starting to- ward Mexico on a prospecting trip. Hunter continued to work on the ca- nal until a few days ago, he received a letter from his pard Goodwin, inform ing him that he had struck it rich. The mine Goodwin found is two miles south Of the line, in Sonora, Mexico. He wrote him even better news it was that Good win had received fifty thousand dollars down and the balance, two hundred thousand to be paid by the Both of June. The letter concluded by telling Hunter that one-half of the property was his and to hurry up and join his old-time friend. On Monday morning he receiv- ed a telegram from Tucson to meet Goodwin at Gila Bend, where convey ances had been sent to take the forum ate men and an eastern mining capital ist to the rich strike of golden wealth Andy Hunter is an industrious and worthy man his many friends through out Arizona will be highly gratified tc | learn of his good fortune.

A new feature that promises to be an important one in the meat markets of the east as we'll as those of the Pa cific coast, is the introduction of Mex ican beef cattle. During the last two weeks over two thousand head of this class of stock have been sent across the line to find purchasers in California and Kansas City. Under the present rule such cattle have to pay twenty per cent of their value in custom fees, but as the prices they realize in the United States are far above those they bring in Mexico, the custom tax is a matter considered of little importance by the Mexican shipper.-Hoof & Horn.

An Cd TriCk.

A few days ago the REVIEW pub
lished u clipping from Walla Walle
paper to the effect that Hoffman, the
young man who is now serving sem
tence of five years in the penitentiary
for attempting to ROB the White
House, has showed decided symptoms
of insanity, and will soon be examined
by physicians to determine whether
he should be kept in prison or the asy-
lam. Chief of Police Warren yes
terday informed reporter that he
understood this is an old trick OF
Hofman's who had worked the ruse of
insanity successfully once or twice be-
fore to get out of Jail. Also that while
the youngsgentlenan was locked up in
the coun y Jail in this city he boosted
to his fellow prisoners that il he was
sont to the pehitentiary he would play
insane and get out.
If Warren's information is correct
it goes to prove that Hoffman has n
