Romance of a Black Cat.

Two or three years ago one OF the
professors at Yale had black cat,
upon which a white hair could
not be found. Barnum advertised
for such an animal and soon the pro-
fessor's cat disappeared. Two days
after BarDum's winter quarters burn
ed out the black cat came back to her
former masters house, and 1T is be-
lived that she was stolen and sold to
Barnum. The distance over the road
Oh which puss travelled is about nine
teen miles.

OUR CONFESSION OF FAITH.

To The READERS OF THE CITIZEN:
In common with many publishers
and editors, we have been accustomed
to look upon certain statements which
we have seen in our columns as mere

points from private letter recently

to claim credit for checking these
ravages
"Seven years ago we stated that

the fatal effect of the kidney poison in

nor was Logan's physician honest
enough to state that his fatal rheuma

Gribble, after the triple assassina-
ton on the 10Th ult., was noto-

only thirty years old, he has been
an outlaw since 1879 or 1880. His
true name was FREDERICK Gonzales,
and about eight years since, after
being arrested in San Luis ObispO
county, California, he killed the
deputy sheriff who had charge OF
nim-one Otero-and made his es-
cape. A reward was then offered
for his capture, but he came OH to
Arizona, and has since evaded the
officers. He and Mexican named
Mendibles, are supposed to have
robbed the Vulture stage of $4,000
bar of bullion in 1885, and a reward

POlled Aberdeen-AnguS Cattle.

None of the so-called ''beef-
breeds" of cattle have attained a
more rapid or well-deserved popu-
larity in this country than the Aber-
deen-Angus. The breed is very
old one, and originated in the an
cient Scottish province of Angus,
which is now the county of Forfar.
1t is within the lifetime of men
still young that animals of this
breed were first brought to this
country. Though their many good
points were obvious at once, there
was at first an absurd prejudice
against their color. But this was
soon dispelled, and the ''doddies"
now form a very important element
in the bred cattle of the Uni
ted States.
Their freedom from horns is an
obvious advantage in feeding and
transporting by rail. They are pro-
life, mature early, and fatten easily.
Well bred "doddies" which "rustle"
the first two years, and are finished
off with grain, weigh from thirteen
to sixteen hundred pounds each,
and when brought to the final test
of the butchers block, yield as
high as sixty pounds or more of
fnely-marbled dressed beef for
every one hundred pounds of live
weight. For the purpose of secur-
ing purity of blood, the leading
breeders Of these cattle some years
ago organized the American Aber-
been-Angus Breeders Association.
and two volumes Of its herd books
have been published, and the third
is in course of preparation. The
Association has q membership of
nearly one hundred and forty, en-
bracing many of the foremost live
stock breeders of the county,

berry. Gribble and his two COM
panions were killed at the same
spot, and from the very first it was
the general belief that the work was
that of Valenzuela. Under the cir
cumstances there can be question
that the members of the posse will
readily secure the rewards offered
by the county and territory. A very
great villain has been removed from
the earth for the good of the gene
raj public.-Arizonan.

Not to be Allowed to Leave the Res.
erVatiOn.

One of the most serious causes
of complaint in this section of the
country has been that in hundreds
of fertile valleys south of the Nav
| ajo reservation, Indians have been
allowed to put up hOgans at every
spring, or place where water was
easily obtained, and had been al
lowed by the Indian department to
hold them without any real occu-
pancy. An Indian would visit the
hogan and remain with his sheep
for a few days only, during the sum-
mer, but when white man attempt
ed to settle there the whole tribe
was in arms, and he was driven
away, the Indian bureau apparent
ly sustaining the Indians in this
lawless proceeding.
Dr.. Ford, clerk for Major Patter-
son, agent for the Navajos, was in
town Saturday, and brings the in
telligence that by order of the In
dian bureau, hereafter no Indian is
to be allowed to leave the reserva-
ton without a pass, that pass stat
ing for what purpose he leaves the
reservation, when he is allowed TO
go and how long to remain. This
pass, issued by the agent, must be
sent to Washington for approval
before it is valid.
This order is now posted at the
agency and Judge Welton, spec
ial agent of the Indian bureau is
now at the agency charged not only
with it's enforcement, but will de-
vote the next three months to in
vestigating the claims of Indians
now living off the reservation to
the lands upon which they have
built hogans. These Indians will
be required either to make filings
on their land in severalty or to re-
turn to and remain on the reserva-
ton. In case they make filings
they will become citizens, and will
no longer have rights on the reser-
vation, or be entitled to other pro-
lection than that afforded by the
civil courts of the Territory in
which they may have elected to
settle.
Judge Welton will be some time
in pursuance of his mission, and
will receive hearty welcome from
our citizens.
The present system under which
the Navajos are allowed to roam at
will with their 1locks and herds out
side Of the reservation limits is de-
moralizing to both whites and In
dians. Gallup is constantly full ol
renegade Navajos, who come here
with their squaws to peddle then
virtue to depraved whites, while the
bucks bask idly in the sun or gam,
bic.
No effort for the civilization Of
these Indians will ever amount tC
r anything, while this state of affairs
is allowed to exist.-Gallup Regis
