THK DAILY EPITAPH is in receipt of . copy Of the call issued by the chair man of the committee having in charge the arrangements for the silver convention to be held in St. Louis next month. From it we learn that it is the prime object of the movers to make sn effort for free coinage, and not merely to make an effort to have the present law concerning the coin- age of silver faithfully carried out, hoping thereby to enhance the value of silver. Neither is it intended that the delegates shall be taken entirely from the mining industry. It isrec- ognized that the present low price of silver is not only squeezing the life out of silver mining, but is having s disastrous effect on all other branches of commerce, and more especially on our vast agricultural interests I: ;s shown by statistics that since the de- monetizstion of silver our exports of bresdstuffs have decreased 73 per cent in volume, and the value of the ex- ported articles has decreased g per eent-that is to say, whereas wheat was worth $1.20 bushel it is now worth only 90 cents. Therefore dele gates from every branch of trade are requested to be in attendance, as it is question affecting the prosperity of the whole nation. According to the call issued each State and Territory is entitled to twenty delegates and twenty alternates

exist at that point. A watershed with an approximate area of fifty thousand square miles concentrates the waters into the narrow gorge at the Buttes, whose walls frown down from their lofty heights upon the waste of the precious fluid that has been per mitted for all these years, and invites the feeble effort that Is necessary to divert it to the use of fertilizing the broad and level plains that lie but a short distance below. The construc- tion of dam at this point means something more than the reclamation of the fairest and richest portion of Arizona, although that is the princi- pal object sought. An immense water power will be created to turn the wheels of great reduction works for the vast deposits of ores adjacent to the river at that point and, without detriment to the quantity, quality or usefulness of the water, it will be made to do double service for the benefit of mankind. Estimates have been made that place the area of new land cap able of being reclaimed under such a reservoir at fully three-quarters of a million acres of the most productive soil upon the face of the globe It is not strahge, under such a condition of affairs, that the people of Florence indulge in high expectations of future prosperity and greatness. It is a destiny that is inevitable, and we re- ioice that it is so, for it's influence upon the general development and prosperity cannot fail to prove highly beneficial to the whole Territory 1 Citizen

Jack Crawford and His Apaches.

A friend of the Stockman, writing from Bowie Station on Monday last, says: "Last night Captain Jack Crawford, who has got quite band of Apache Indians from San Carlos to take to the exposition at St. Joseph, Missouri, camped with his Indians at Solomonville, the county seat of Gra- ham county. He purchased two year-old steer and turned it over to the Indians, who killed, skinned and distributed it in less than twenty minutes. The Mayor of the city and Council visited the camp in the even- ing, when, after filling up on fresh beef, the Indians gave a grand dance, and many of Solomonville's young bloods joined in the festivities until near midnight. The chiefs then held long council with Captain Jack, during which they expressed their pleasure at the project of going to the great exposition at St. Joseph. Among other things that Chief Poco Rappc said was this: Captain Bulls is a good man-friend to Indian. Indian do more work for Captain Bulls than for any other agent since the big white agent left that stole all beef anc flour. Me like to go to the land O. the rising sun and see great big things and want to see heap plenty corn and wheat like on big picture Captain Jack bring to San Carlos The party arrived here to-day, and will leave fol St. Joseph by to-night's train.-Wilco, StOckmau

A Startling Confession.

Willia m Varnum, one of the first men arrested for the murder of the colored soldier, private Wm. Fleming, of E Troop, 10th Cavalry, at San Car los, made confession last Thursday night, duplicating another soldier named Edwards, who was subsequents ly arrested and pair of bloody draw CTS were found where he had concealed them. There are now three men in irons, and it is said the Commanding Officer of the post has secured enough evidence to hang them. Varnum alleges that he and his accomplices were paid by a society, to which many of the negro soldiers belong, to kill Fleming, and that he decoyed the de- ceased and the other two killed him.
 A later telegram to the Belt says the Investigation leading towards the discovery of the murderers of Elem ing has developed some startling facts Varnum's confession led to the arrest of the company barber, named Ed wards, and revealed the existence of an organization in E Troop similar to the sMollie Maguires or Ku Klux. It appears that Douglass, Wilson and Edwards were detailed by the society to kill Fleming, who was in their way, and they were to receive a small remuneration for their work, Varnum being selected to decoy Fleming fir, ID the post. Varnum refuses to give the names of the chief or other members of the society, but the Commanding officer will endeavor to ferret the crime to the bottom before turning the case over to the civil authorities Globe Silver Belt.

FACING HIVES.
A Bee Keeper Tells In Which Direction
 Beehives Should Front.

Beehives Should Front.
 In which direction ought beehives to front, is a question of importance and one that does not appear to have received much consideration from agricultural writers. The opinions based on personal experience and expressed recently by an Iowa bee keeper in The American Bee Journal will be of interest to apiarians. He says:
 Iwould not advise setting shade trees very thick. It is from personal expert ence that write. have been expert menting in this direction for about ten years, and I think that have come to a conclusion that is satisfactory to me. 1 cannot control my bees in hot or sul- try, close place, for they will hang out on the fronts of the hives and at a loss of honey, or at my expense. The better the honey flow the warmer is the inside of the hive, so it would be well for us, even in this latitude, not to choose too hot place for the hives. If I should have any slope at all it would be in any direction except south.
 On the other hand, early spring is very trying; at this time of the year we should do all we can to save the old bees, for if we accomplish this, other things being favorable, we will have plenty of brood, and plenty of bees to gather the clover honey. For hours in the spring of 1888 watched, with much interest, the little bees fly from the cozy and well protected apiary, on which the direct rays of the sun rested, causing the bees to take wing in great numbers. Over the willows they flew, with the temperature at 45 degs., though there were clouds at times, and chilly northern breezes. If my bees had been on the north side of the will lows, they would not have been out, taking the chances.
 had one row of hives fronting north, and where the cool breezes could strike the entrance; these bees did not dwindle to any extent, while those in the sun, and facing south, though protected from the wind, dwindled down on the average of one-third of the bees. Thus it may be seen that if the white clover had yielded a surplus, I would have been the loser of hundreds of pounds of honey. In short, l think quite positively, that it is not best to carry bees from any repository, and front their hives to the south, in sunny and close yard.

Ice Water.

In the opinion of many physicians
 there is a great deal of sentiment and difference of opinion regarding the use of ice water that vanishes when the light of reason is turned upon them. The fact is, that ice water, drank slowly and in moderate quantities, is a
 healthful and invigorating drink. There is no doubt but that ice is a great sanitary agent and that every family ought to be provided with it during the warmer months of the year. It is true that the inordinate use of ice water, or its use under some special conditions and circumstances is attended with great danger; so is the improper use of any other drink or food. The assumption that iced water is dangerous, and that iced tea, or iced coffee, or iced lemonade is a harmless substitute, is simply a dC- fusion. AS the source of danger feared by some is the degree of cold, we fail to see clearly how flavor modi- fes the effect of temperature. There are some individuals undoubtedly who cannot drink ice water without injury, and who ought never to use it, but to great majority of persons it is re- freshing and healthful Its use
 temperate and discreet, is in no way to be condemned which cannot be said of some of its substitutes-Science

THE MILD LOOKING MAN.
He Was Willing to Answer to the Namo
 of Snaggs.

"Hal Caught you at last, have F"
 The tall, powerful man who uttered these words stood in the center of group at a street corner in a far western town. As he spoke he brought his hand down heavily on the shoulder of a mild looking stranger who was passing by and turned him half way round.
 The tall, powerful man had previously winked at the bystanders.
 "You don't remember me, I spose?" he continued, with a fierce frown, as he tight ened his clutch on the strangers shoulder.
 "Why, no; I can't say I do," replied the mild looking man, looking at him wonder ingly.
 You've forgot all about the time you leaned out of car window of train jest pullin' out of Cheyenne and knocked my hat off, I reckonl"
 ''I certainly don't remember anything of the kind, protested the bewildered stranger. II never saw you before"
 70, yes you didl You may have forgot it, but 1 haven't" And he emphasized the assertion by vigorous shake. ''I haven't forgot it, and I've said thousand times since then that if I ever met you agin I'd make you apologize or fight"
 "Now that 1 think of it." said the mild looking stranger, stopping to pick up his hat, which had fallen to the ground during the shaking process, ''it seems to me do remem- Der something of the kind. suppose am bound to give you satisfaction for it. Put up your dukes"
 His bewildered look had all gone by this time. Placing himself in an attitude of de- fense, he danced about the big man in way startingly suggestive of previous practice.
 Before 1 mop the sidewalk with you, " said the other, II want to be sure ain't mis- taken. Your name is--is Snaggs, ain't itl"
 ''Snaggsp replied the stranger, planting a blow neatly on his antagonists jaw. Ger tainlyl Snaggs will do as well as anything else Snaggs it isl"
 But, hold onI 1 want to be dead sureI The man I'm lookin' fur is Jerusalem Snaggsl' You've found him, my friend" exclaimed the stranger, as he banged him on the nose ''Im Jerusalem Snaggsl" be continued, mak ing feint with his left and administering 6 vicious upper cut with his right. "Oh, yes I am Snaggs [biff1 from Iwhackl Snaggsville Snaggs county [bangl, near the head water! of Snaggs creek. Office hours from 1 to 24 Come early and avoid the rushl"
 With a final blow under the ear he laid the burly fellow flat on the ground
 As he turned to go be said: My name, gentlemen, is Jerusalem Snaggs, of course, but for convenience saks go around under an alias"
 And he took from his vest pocket cart ! and threw it on the prostrate body of thu big man. After he had gone away some body picked it up and read;

The Beef Problem,

On several occasions we have spoken of the unreasonable and unjust differ ence between the price of the beef as paid the farmers and the price the same is retailed at in the cities and towne. The difference is from to 12 cents per pound and sometimes more. Speaking of this subject, a Dallas, Texas, stock raiser writes: "I think it will be apparent to all who consider this beef problem that the present low prices, apparently caused by over production, is mainly attributable to the high retail price demanded from the consumer. The average retail price of beef is about eighteen cents per pound, and the question presents itself, can the laboring masses use this commodity as an article of food? It appears that the retail butchers, who have the monopoly of supplying the consumer, keep up their exorbit- ant prices, said prices being out of all proportion to the cost of beef on foot or by wholesale dressed carcasses. Ii is an unquestioned fact that if any food product is placed beyond the reach of the masses, something cheap CT will be substituted But being placed by the avaricious retail butcher beyond the reach of the masses, the demand for that product is reduced tc such low minimum that there is al apparent overproduction."

 H. H. Stoddard, in his work on poul- try architecture, presents the plan repre- sented in the first cut, by which each hen with her chickens can be kept by themselves, the hen having the advant- age of scratching in the run. The run is made of common hemlock boards and lath. The end toward the coop is open, and the front of the coop is also open. The boards at the bottom are inches wide and at the top inches. The end is separate, as are, also, the two sides. They can be tied together with twine, and when you are done using them they can be taken apart and put away in a small space.
 When you have need of twenty or twenty-five such runs, it is a great ad- vantage to have them made in sections, so as to be able to pack them away in a small space. The bottoms of the coops are loose, and can be taken out and cleaned when necessary; also, the runs can be renewed with fresh sand occa- sionally, or removed to new site. The runs cost twenty-two to twenty-foul cents each, if you make them yourself.
