THE great downpour of the past few days seems to have been pretty general over southern Arizona. While considerable damage has resulted in some neighborhoods, yet the general good to the cattle and farming inter- ests will more than compensate for the loss sustained. The storm was particularly severe in this county and Pinal. At Bisbee, which is situated in a canon, the storm was attended with loss of life and large destruction of property, which is calculated to reach the value of sl0,OOO. The bridges along the San Pedro river have been washed away, and consid- erable damage was done at Fairbank. In Final county, Casa Grande suffered severely, and at Florence the new court house, in process of erection, was struck by lightning and 8 large portion of it knocked down.

Some years ago we were very much subject to severe spells of cholera nor bus; and now when we feel any of the symptoms that usually proceed that ail- ment, such as sickness al the stomach. diarrhea, etc, we become soary. We have found Chamberlain's Remedy the very thing to straig hten one out in such cases, and always keep 1t about, It is somewhat similar to the usual cholera cures, but seems th contain ingredients that render it more pleasant to take, and that do their work more quickly. Sheriff Devereux tells us that he is subject to cholera morbus, and recently felt a spell coming on, when he obtained bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar- inca Remedy, and two doses made him all right.

A goed story is told about Senator Hearst, and as it comes from very close friend of his, there is strong probability that consdable truth lies behmd the "yarn."

The Inhabitants st Cheese.

MT. Adametz has just made some m ic-creo:,sn rn.Aa-~t>-e- iere- .,,s nj. croscopic organisms that inhabii cheese From an examination of En- menthsl, soft variety of Gruyere cheese, he has obtained the following results: In each gramme of the cheese when fresh, from 90,000 to l40,00O microbes are found. Thus, cheese II days old contains 800 900 bacteria per gramme. The population of q soft cheese 25 days old and much denser than the preceding is 200 900 and that of cheese 45 days old is 2.000, 900 microbes per gramme. But the population of cheese is not everywhere distributed the same in it.. The center Is but moderately inhabited with respect to the exterior portion. The population of soft cheese, near the periphery, Is from 3,600,000 to $500 900 microbes. According to the mean of these two figures, there gre as many living organisms in 36O grammes of such cheese as there are people upon the earth.-La Nature.

 W. H. Harlan is saving considera- ble gold in the battery of his little mill. Ore being crushed is from the Aztec mine, the one in which stone tools were found.
 Several of the chambers in the United Verde mines are large enough to take in whole villages. The ore is rich in silver and copper and carries some gold. But for the railroad and Hon. W. A. Clark, of Butte, Montana, these mines would not now he sup pQrling some 300 persons. Drsof the Hillside mine is placed ip sacks upon backs of animals, and 3facked to the top of an immense hill. tis then loaded into wagons and hauled about 70 miles to the railroad which takes it to Denver, Colorado, shelter.
 J. D. Helm has gone to Bradshaw district to prepare fer working the Tiger mine, which, in past years, yielded plenty of silver bullion. The first eleven tons that were shipped to San Francisco yielded $500 to the ton in silver.
 The Riggs claim, and that of W. A. Linn, on the great lode, are thought to be as geod as the original"
 E. $. Junior has claims near the Tiger that are very rich in silver,
 The Crowned King mine, said to be a monster in size, and rich in gold, is 8 short distance east of the Tiger, Gro Bella, Gray Eagle, Rapid Transit and other well-knewn mines.

 Near by is the Del Pasco, which has yielded a great deal of gold.
 Some $30,000 in silver was taken out nf apocket" in the Pine Spring mine, Turkey creek district Prospect ing would lay bare more good ore.

 To the East are the great mines of Walker and Big Bug districts, to the west, those of Slate Creek, Walnut Grove, Weaver and Martinez district. Tip Top. Silver Mountain and Castle Creek districts are south of the Brad shaws. They all contain good mines. All nesd capital to open their treasure houses, and capital, we are glad ts be able ts say, is being furnished.

wood post in Washington with hiero- glyphics and faces cut upon it all with glass. You can see bits of the original chisel still sticking in corner of the wood, where it broke off three cen turies age under the hand of the workman. The Aztecs knew how to make very good and manageable glass, and their best cutting blades, swords, daggers and spears, saws, chisels and axes. were made of it. Vixen the edge dulled they broke it fro,a the end instead of sharpening it, and got new cutting line.
 "You can see great deal of aborig- inal carpentry still in use among the Moqui Indians of the United States. Of course they use our tools now, but they follow their old patterns. They know how to make ladders, and they swing their doors oa hinges from the top, and they know how to moftise timbers-knew how long before Co- lumbus landed in America. Of course they use our tools differently from our way. The chisel they push rather than hammer, and they work the beard up and down on fixed saw rather than the saw on the board, and withal they get creditable results. The frame work in the Fpeblos is quite as honest as anything we have in Amer ics"

Absrisi gal Carpentry.

In speaking of ancient American tools. MT. H. F. Mcleod. of the Smith sonian Institute at Washington, re- gently said: Aboriginal carpentry was the chief trade of our predecessors on this continent. The Indians and the mound builders had very good idea of woodworking. You will see even now some very pretty joining done by Sioux Indians. Their tent poles make fit which many white carpenter would not like to try to bet ter.
 "The best carpenters, of course, were. the Aztecs, who had arrived at sqplfe high stage of art, and whose although they knew nothing of s<eel, ars really excellent. We have a few of their tools at the Smithsonian, Sut the best collection is. of course, in the City of Mexico. The material used was almost wholly glass, especial ly for the finer parts of their wood cutting. To chop trees they used flint axes, and for the rough hewing out of aogs the ssme,sbut when if came te tlss seodfAss lIss oi lhe hevn < 3zin,her. lllsy babdled glass kpiysS!
