 Look at that patch of snow on those
 mountains" observed lady to her bus
 band few days ago. That is not
 snow, my dear," he replied, Git is the i'm
 maculAte record cf our board of super.
 visors At this distance it looks pure
 white but close insP ction reveals num-
 berless black spots and underneath the
 white exterivr all is dark. The owners
 of that record are evidently aware that
 the further they keep it away from the
 public gate the less liable those unpIeas-
 ntly colored spots are 10 be seen and are therefore keeping it as far away as
 possible" And several neighbors who overheard the remarks are ,n a brown study.
 It is said that one of the ranchers liv- ing on the San Pedro, in gging a we'll recently. washed some of the gravel tx- tracted and found several culors of gold
 This announc. ment dld not occasion any surprise for it has long been known that gold existed to ,mall degree in the sands of that stream, but the question naturally arises if there is not some D, ce along that river where gold might be iound Tn paying quantities. Stranger things have happened.
 The attention of fruit growers all over the country is being turned to A'izona and it is safe to assert that in en years af CT state hood is giv us we will rival, if not excel, CallfTnia in the pr. duo ion tf all fruits known to that favor, cuun- try.

The same class of the vegetabl kingdom fourishes in several places of lesser note but not being the pure variety do not | amount to much.
 am told that an agreement is ready for signature by the big mining oompa- mes of this district to consolidate their forces, SO far as going below water level is concerned, as soon as silver touches SI 10 with certaiaty of staying there. The consummation of this movement will undoubtedly return all and more of ] Tombstone's former glory; but the fact that the same companies agreed some time ago to do the same thing when sll- 
 yer reached S1, with no saving clause about its staying there, doesn't sound very much as if the latter arrangement would fare any better than the former. One thing especially that attracts the eye of a visitor to our city is that every vacant lot contains enough rubbish to supply torty-acre field and then have some left over. Another unpleasant frat ure that greets strangers eve isthe generally dIlapidated appearance of Ihe majority of our business houses The private residences, as a rule, show tvi- dences of thrift and care, but the busi- ness houses have an air of indifference that unpleasantly reflects on business tact and enterpri and which the plea of "hard times" fails to justify.
 The indecent exhibition in saloon a short time ago is forcible reminder of the lack of vigilance exercised by our officers. While in some cases it Is un- doubtedly a great accommodation and convenience to certain parties to have the good will of the officers, it necessarily follows that some one must suffer for every action which violates the law with out ad. Juate punishment. IL would etm a good argument that as flcers of the. law are elected or app inted 10 emf rec obedience to the law they should do so at all times. If discretionary powers were intended to be conf rred upon th, m II would be done when they assume the duties of their ffices. IL is usually sup !, sed that the courts alone txercist ds- cre,ionary powers over ffensrs against the law. HE KICKER.
