FrCn1 San Carlos.

Dr. $. D. Pangburn, the head farm CT of San Carlos reservation was in the city yesterday, he was summoned here as a witness to testify in the case of the United States vs. We-kin-I ' eh, the Apache Mohers Indian who at- tempted his life November I9th last The Star learns from Dr. Pangburn that the reservation Indians are put tingi in large crop of wheat and bar ley. They will have in more grain this year than ever before. They have reclaimed several new tracts of land which they will plant this season for the first tune.
 The barley they sell to the govern ment and the wheat they have ground at the agency mill for their own use.
 After the wheat and barley has been harvested they plant the same ground in corn, pumkins, thus the ground produces two crops annually.
 There are four new ditches being taken out from the Gila river and some of the old ones are being extend ed, all of which will bring large areas of unreclaimed land under cultiya tion. The climate in the vicinity of San Carlos Is unezceptionally fine.
 The Indians all appear to be cheer ful and control on the reservation Capt. J. K. Bullis the acting agent has established firm and just discipline on the reservation which the Indians respect, thus he is full of energy and industry and keeps all hands busy, he believes that industry is the most inn portant factor in civilizing the Indians and when the Apache comes to see the fruits of his toll in the harvest and in- crease Of stock he maintains an im- portant step Is made in the ciyiiiza- tlOn, and hIs humane treatment of the Indians and his own untiring industry among them has begotton the the confidence and respect of the In dian which is telling in good results Dr. Pangburn says that during his resi- | dence on the reservation for nearly 15 years, the outlook for the civiliza- ! ton of the Indian has never been so promising as now, and during the last ! three years they have made more pro- gress then in twelve years, all of which speaks well for Capt. Pierce and Bullis the acting agents during that time.
 The rule of having the farmers live or settle among the Indians have had much to do with their rapid progress as they have had the cultivation Of the crops directly under their observation There is one head farmer and four as sistants who work with the Indial { and thus set them an example which ii they do not follow the scouts are called into requisition, and those who refuse to work are taken to the guard house, but there are few of them who refuse to work.-Star.

Sheep Vs. Cattle. TTnT

The following bit of news was re- ceived Sunday by the Citizen: News has been received here of killing done at the Chiricahua Cattle Com pany's camp on the Bonita, tributary of the Gila. From what can be gath cred from James Lassiteer, foreman of the cattle company, it seems some sheep men from Apache county have been grazing flock of sheep near the range of this company, which brought on trouble on Thursday. Lassiteer's story is that the sheepmen (Mexicans) ambushed his men, but the story is not believed, as none of the cattlemen were killed, but all the sheepmen met their death.

Movement of shot When Fired.

If Q man could only stand thirty or forty yards away from the muzzIe of the gun and watch the charges of shot fly post him, he would be astonished at what he saw. The shot not only spreads out into widening target as they fly, but they string out one behind the other to much greater distance than they spread Thus, with cylinder gun, when the first shot of a charge reach target that is forty yards away the last shot are tagging along ten yards behind. Even with choke bored gun the shot lag be- hind eight yards in forty. This accounts for the long swath that is moved in a flock of ducks on whom the charge of shot fall just right. About per cent only of the charge of shot arrive simul- taneously at the target, but the balance of the first half of the charge is so close behind that a birds muscles are not quick enough to get 1t out of the way, although those who have watched sitting birds when shot at have often seen them start as if to fly when the leading shot whistled by them, only to drop dead as they were overtaken by the leaden hail that followed.-New York Sun.

Three Crops in Fen nIonths.

The Hall Bros, under the Enter prise Canal, have secured three crops from one piece of land since the first of last March, ten months. At the time mentioned they broke up and sowed to wheat and barley for hay a quarter section of land. The grain grew quite ripe before they could harvest it and much oft was threshed out which seeded the ground q second time with wheat and barley. The ground was again broken up and sowed to corn for feed and as soon as it was large enough for good feed this was harvested, when the wheat and barley which was coming up among 1t proceeded to mature and on the first and second days of this month, Jan uary, 1889, they were cutting it and making hay of it at the rate of two tons per acre. It sounds queer to talk of making hay on the first of January and it is surely remarkable to cut three crops from the same land in ten months but these are neverthe- less facts and cannot be gainsayed. In alfalfa raising usually five crops are cut per year but December, January and February are generally months in which alfalfa rests from its labors.- Phenix Herald.

 THE "Bonanza Company" has se- cured the control of the Silver King mine and, although the old officers were re-elet te l, Mir w. s Lyle has been made the general manager and will exercise exclusive control of the property. This company will work the property to make money and if it cannot be made out of the mine it will be made out of the stock. It is also rumored that it is negotiating for the Reymert group of mines at De Noon, and if successful it will erect very ex- tensive works on the Gila river and construct a railroad from the mines to the mill and inaugurate a grand sys- tenn of development that will sustain large towns both at the mines and the mill. It now looks as though lively impetus will be given to mining mat ters in Pinal county that will prove te be beneficial to the county and is people.

Peculiar to tho Trade.

There is one thing peculiar to the hat and cap tra0o, and that is the manner in which stocks are ordered By core spondence we agree with different man. ufacturers on a date on which we will meet their representatives. Half a dozen companies, for instance, manufacture a similar class of goods. We don't want to go east and visit each of the factories, end we don't want to visit one and buy there. Neither do we want to have one agent call on us one week, another another week, and so on. Hence the ar engagement for the agents of compet- ing houses to meet us at the same time, the result apparently being satisfactory to ell concerned.
 It does seem quite novel to see half dozen or more names written on hotel register, one after the other, all from New York, and to be told they are drum mers for one line.

It is possible in ours mainly for the reason that all styles and purchases are made away in advance of the season.

A Funeral in Turkey.

Preparations for the funeral are begun as soon as life is extinct, as the Turks believe in burying the dead as quickly as possible. The eyelids are closed and the lower jaw bandaged; the arms are stretched down the side and the feet tied together. The priest and his assistants are now summoned to wash the corpse
 As with us, no matter how person may have been kicked and buffeted through life. he is handled very tenderly after all sensibility has departed. The Turks are even more careful of this, because any lack of tenderness in handling corpse would bring upon them the curse of the dead mans souL-Cor. Globe-Democrat

4 F-erckpea,s Dish of sns,,s.

The snail is to American eyes a nause- 2ting. slimy creature, and the thought of eating one makes one's gorge rise. Not so, however, to the Frenchman, who looks upon this proverbially slow trav- eler as the most delicious morsel that the epicurean can roll beneath his tongue. He has not in mind the American snail that draws his length along the stone wall and is of small size, but his gigantic brother that abounds in certain parts of France and England and feeds off the tender cabbage plant. The process that leads to his presence on the table is in tercsting and peculiarly French. In the first place he is immersed in water and scrubbed, then he is covered with salt until all his slime is withdrawn; next he is bathed again in salt water, then he is left for some time in a solution made from all the appetizing herbs and spices. The cooking IS the next process, and with wine and one Of those mysteri- ous sauces known only to tho chef Fran calse, he is served. The Parisian first views the dish lovingly, and then. rais- ing the shell to his lips, he closes his eyes and gently draws into his mouth the succulent morsel, leaving the shell empty.

Let the real work of the ses- sion be transacted upon the merits of the subjects involved, without the re- moiest reference to sectional prejudice or anticipated reciprocal favors, and when all is done, if it is deemed wise to remove the seat of government, let that be done openly and honestly, without becoming a mere commercial transaction.

K. c. 6 0. W. BROWN,

THE rich gold discoverien recently nade in Yuma county, ne2r the Mari ops line, are creating 8 wide excite nent and, as usual veJ4turesome niners are hocking tc tbat place in he hope of sharing the expected boom. iV far, judging from the reports re- eived, the new 6elds are very promis- ng, but it has not yot been demon trated thatanyfning beyond a mere urface deposi. of mineral exists. The deepest sh9lt is scarcely more than en feet 0eep, but if the quality of the 're taus far encountered continues or a distaace of fifty feet, the mines VII yield an enormous amount of gold. It is highly probable that an import ant camp will spring up at these miaes whose permanency will be governed by the developments yet to be made. People should not rush off to the new excitement without ample provisions for their comfort and sustenance as well as something with which to de- fray the return trip should disappoint- ment follow their venture. The most encouraging feature noticeable in the reports from the new camp IS the unanimity with which it's richness IS extolled by all who have visited it. Good, practical mining men affirm that it is the most wonderful discovery ever made on the Pacific coast and that large town will soon spring up at that point. We hope the most san guine expectations regarding the camp may be fully realized.
