hiISDIRECTED ZEAL.

The National Womau's Christian Temperance Union, through its Presi dene. Frances E. Willard. has sent an address to the delegates to the congress of American nations, now in session at Washington. The address expresses surprise that the delegates indulged in wine and beer and possibly other eXhil- erating liquids during their tour throughout the country. It entreats the delegates not to do so any more, and urges them during their stay in the country ito study the vast benefits of prohibition as practiced in eight States in the Union." Now, there is more zeal in this than polIteness or good taste. The visiting Pan American delegates all belong to wine-drinking nations. They are of wine-drinking races. The senti- ment, in thIs country, against wine drinking is curiosity to them. They regard the non-wine drinking man as an anomaly. They cannot regard wine drinking as a fault. Hence the efforts at their reformation cannot but be una vailing. They may take the imputation of fault as an affront. They will regard it much as a church sewing society would 8 moral arraignment for tea drinking. 4 good cause is indeed often injured by unreasonable presentation Denver Times.

ON THEFRONTIER.

At the town of Albuquerque, N. M., there occurred the other evening a very bold and daring robbery. Two men found their way into the Postoffice, ''stood up' the night clerk in charge, and broke open the safe and the mail bags, helping themselves to money, stamps, registered letters, and whatever else suited their fancies.
 It is not at all unlikely that this will be cited in England and other parts of Europe as conclusive evidence of the in security to life and property which pre- vails in the United States; and it is not impossible that the sedate and dignified Eastern States may use it to point mo- ral and adorn a tale, or at least to draw a contrast between the peaceful East and the wild and turbulent West.
 The lesson or the comparison will not be a just one in any respect, unless the critic takes into account the condition of affairs which prevails in all frontier towns, and particularly in those which lie near the border of another sovereign ty. The .presence of an international boundary line inevitably creates a sort of no mans land. where knaves and scoundrels of various degrees of villainy and rascality most do congregate. for the reason that very short time can put them beyond the reach of the officers of the law. In the olden times before union of England and Scotland, the border was the chosen resort of mas teriess men and sturdy knaves," as the of England used to call them ,and the. law Kings writ was scarcely more effective on the border than it was the highlands of Scotland or among the bogs of Ire land.
 This is the condition of things that time always cures. is the border country becomes settled up, and the reign of law succeeds to that rude justice which is often prevalent on the frontier, the knaves and scoundels find that the climate is not salubrious for them, and they emigrate. Some are as sisted, it is true, and some are effectual- ly prevented from migrating, but it comes to the same thing in the end, that the moral atmosphere is purified and the frontier country becomes fitted for the residence of a law-abiding people. Albuquerque is now in its transition state, and it is not fair to charge it with crimes or offenses for which it is not re- sponsible, and which it would gladly punish in a summary manner if it could put its hand upon the offenders Chronicle.

WE are under obligations to Collector M. s. Snyder, of whom we have given a sketch, for a dozen copies of the illus trated holiday number of the Arizona Daily CITIZEN, a specimen of the enter prise of the west which shows how and why that section is almost always boom ing. They push. They advertise! They talk and they write poetry about their section. They are united and in earnest in their good words for their localities. They make outsiders believe in the ad vantages offered. There is no such op- position, or indifference, or half hearted ness in the support and seconding Of the effort of the few in trying to boom the town as in exhibited in the attitude of some towards our business men who. through the Board of Trade. are unsel- tishly trying to do good to the town and village. Men in Tucson do not stand idly by and find fault with those who are at work, for their failure to accomplish something, but they take hold and help. With half the spirit exhibited by Tue sonians, Dansvillains might work busi- ness revolution right here within less than a decade. We shall be glad to con- tribute the extra numbers of the CITIZEN to those who will call for them.-Dans- vile Advertiser, \. Y.

THE great blockades of the past three weeks have proved a serious loss to the great railroads of the north and west. Business has been completely blocked for more than twenty days. The South ern Pacific has been one of the heavy losers. Nearly four thousand men were at work yesterday, clearing away the snow and repairing washouts, at estima- ted loss to the company of 575,OCO per day. The business of the whole Pacific coast has been affected. There is scarce ly any travel, and Tucson has not been so quiet for years at this season. This however, is only a temporary calamity it will soon pass away and be carried to the profit and loss account of the great railroad corporations. Further than @ short cessation of business it will not se- riously affect the commercial interests of this section; but there has been great loss of property in some parts of Cali fornia, Oregon and Nevada, by both floods and blizzards. Large amounts of stock have been frozen to death and drowned.

THE APACHES.

IOt the proposition to remove Geroni- mos band of Chiricahua Indians to the Indian Territory, Judge Hackney, of the Silver Belt, who knows all about Apache deviltry and treachery. writes: Those who are now being wept over, and com mlsserated because of being in "a po- hced camp" are not victims of oppress- lon, but, on the contrary, are kept un- der surveillance for the commission of crimes unsurpassed in atrocity. since the massacre of whites by Indians in the valley of Wyoming, Pennsylvania, in HIS, which, for its fiendishness, at tracted the attention of the civilized world, and made such an impression on Thomas Campbell, the English lyric the author of The Pleasure of Hope." The Exile of Erin and miscellaneous poems-that he recounted their hellish deeds in tragic verse.
 The Chiricahuas are restless under restraint and pay no more attention to conventional lines than jack rabbit Although they never read Payne's ''HOme, Sweet Home" nevertheless they have an attachment for ''the scenes of their childhood" or places of adoption: hence the fear if they are liberated at Fort Sill they will gravitate west to Arizona and again dig up the al5eady incarnadined hatchet, which General Miles forced them to bury edgG down.
 Since shortly after the establishment of the Butterfield mail route, in 1857, the Chiricahuas, except at short inter val, have been on the war path, and though repeatedly induced to accept the hospitality of the Government, were never known to observe treaty obliga- tions, and changed their reservations oftener, than they did their shirts. They are not even social fiends. In solitude they are least alone; almost diligent when on the trail, their cry has ever been, war! war even to the knife. Where is it in the west and south their power has not been felt? Seventy miles to them is but a days journey, and even as far south as Sinaloa, Mexico, the in habitants had cause to tremble at their name

Horrible Murder

Since the Apaches ceased their devil
 meEt, 1t has not been within the provin-
 ces of the PROSPECTOR, to record a more cold blOOded, heartless murder than
 that committed Saturday last in the
 Huachuca mountains.
 Yesterday morning Sid Thomas came
 to town and notified Sheriff Slaughter that a murder had been committed on the Duncan brothers ranch in the West Huachuca mountains.
 The Duncan brothers, three in num- Der. have a ranch in the West Huachuca mountains near the Mexican line. Dav- i'd, one of them. has been paralyzed for three or four years and has been unable to do any work. He has been suffering recently from an attack of zla grippe and was confined to his bed on Satur- day. The two brothers left for the field, about three miles from the house. to blow. Upon their return at night they found horrible sight before them. On the bed lying upon his back was their brother, David, weltering in his blood while the house presented the ap- pearance of having been ransacked and robbed of all it's valuables. An investi- gatiOn showed that the unfortunate brother had been stabbed through the heart with long knife, the blade pas sing entirely through his body. No evi- dence of a struggle was visible; on the contrary 1t IS almost certain that he met his death from blow from the assassin while asleep. Everything of value had been taken from the house, shOwi.g Q con that the object was robbery Rifles, pistols, watch and various oth- er articles had been taken, The work is supposed to have been committed by Mexicans, as the trail leads south, and did commit the horrible crime Is no doubt safe in Sonora long before this time. Immediately upon receipt oi ! the news in this city Coroner Hawke | left for the scene of the butchery to l hold an inquest. He was accompanied | by Sheriff Slaughter and C.. ". Swain. l Their return IS expected some time dur Ing the night, when further particulars will be in all probability forthcoming, - ProSpector.

A CASE IN POINT.

In our forefathers' days, pimples were sttribu ted to diseased blood. Bu< modern medicine has demonstrated that rich food does not create erup tions by fouling the blood, but re:ards digestion which makes the stomach torpid and the eireu- lation sluggish, and in turn causes an enfeebled action of the pores which eOngest or become pin- ply. The modern theory therefore is not to trea; the blood, but the stomach and liver, and it is under this new idea, that Joys Vegetable Sarsa- pGrilla was conceived. It has wiped out the blood disease" theory of pimples, of the old saparillas A case in point '' have had for years spells of indigestion and dyspepsia and tried nearly everything. Finally I took one of the leading sarsaparillas. It did not help me, but caused pimples to break out on my face, which was told was caused by the potash it contained Hearing that Joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla did not contain mineral and might act differently, sent lorit. The pimples disappeared immediately and I kavc now after months had no return of the old spells. IL is q cure for indigestion and dyspepsia and tho attendant face eruptions"

Valuable Discovery.

Twenty miles from Silver City, on the Gila river, have recently been made dis cOveries of alumnia- bearing rock cover ing a mile square or more of territory, and if one half of all that is claimed for it is true, the industrial value of the find is almost incalculable. The action of the river has exposed great banks of the material, and it is said by this means nature has practically mined enough of the sulphate of alumnia to supply a manufacturing plant with ca pacity of 9 tons per day and keep it running for fourteen years. There is but one other such deposit in existence, and that is in Greenland. The mer- chantable products of such a deposit when properly treated, include the oxide, chloride ard su!phate Of alumnia, sul- phuric acid and metallic aluminium. It is understood that Chicago syndicate has secured control of this property and has already begun extensive operations for its development.-New M sxican.

THE Los Angeles Times says the opi- nion expressed by a San Francesca army officer, that if the Apache prisoners are removed to Indian Territory they would not be long in getting back into New Mexico and Arizona and recommending carnage, is undoubtedly sound. Gen. Crook, who made the recommendation. IS an honorable gentleman and a brave soldier, but he seems to be incapable of comprehending the depth of Apache de- pravity. To place these red handed murderers once more within possible reach of a section winch they long kept under reign of terror, and from which they were only elected after the labor or years, would certainly be criminal

SOUTHERN California will probably plant more orange trees this year than ever before known in one season. The rains put the ground in fine condition. and the demonstrated fact that the scale bug can be exterminateda are reasons why people turn again to the orange. Be sides this the orange tree IS always bless ed with a good crop, and there is more clear money in a good orange grove than Tn anything else in the state. The quan- tity this year is superb, the prices good, and the crop first-class. The fact that there is rapidly growing demand for orange land is a favorable indication that people from every part of the world re- cognize the importance of orange cul- Commercial Bulletin.

THE decision of the mandamus case brought by Thompson, Republican mem Der of the Montana legislature, against the State auditor to compel him to pay Thompson his salary, virtually settles the political muddle that has been go ing on in the new state ever since the election last fall, and leaves the legisla- ture in the hands of the Republicans The Montana Democrats are now left in a position very much like the one to which Arizona Democratic hangers-on are rapidly approaching.

GENERAL CRoOK's latest announce ment, to create sympathy for Apache h. dian murderers who should have been hung in Arizona, but have kept under military surveillance in Florida for the past two years, is that "they are broken ln spirit and Geronimo is teaching Sun day school" That must be pretty rough on the old villain. IL is some thing entirely en different lay to his disposition. Geronimo, no doubt, is as miserable in Sunday school, as would be McGinty in the camp of the w. c. T. U.
