 A man by the name of Berks was sent by the superintendent on Friday afternoon at ? o'clock from the upper dam to warn the people down the canyon, but he got drunk at Coco wins groggery. He had ample time to warn all the dwellers who lived near the stream and if he had done hIs duty no lives would have been lost, Sheriff O'Neill arrested hIm and sent him to Prescott.

FoRT SILL.

Crook Mecca for Chiricahua Indians, of which so much has recently been said, has attracted the attention of the President, Secretaries of War and h. terier, Congress, humanitarian socie- ties, church sociables, quiltings and tea-fights, and, therefore, birdseye view of Fort Sill and its deleGtable surroundings is not inaptly given by Hampton Ellis, by request of the BELT. Mir. Ellis has been there, and has felt the effect of miasma arising from Cache Creek bottom:
 Fort Sill, l. T., is situated in the western part of the Indian Territory, on high bluff on the south side of Medicine Bluff Creek, the highest point being something like 300 feet above the water. Cache River, which runs southward at that point, being about one mile eastward. The coun- try IS somewhat broken to the north and west, and gradually slopes to a level Tn the south. A range of noun tains on the northwest can be seen from the Fort, terminating at Nit. Scott, about 10 miles northeast. About 2 miles south are the school build ings connected with the agency. The Fort is substantially built, most of the buildings belng of rock. The hospi- tai, a fine two story stone building, stands near the bluff above men toned
 The place is said to be very un- healthy, which is no doubt the case as the Cache bottom near the Fort pro duees yearly rank growth of vegeta tion, the decaying matter probably being the cause of chllls and fever so prevalent in that vicinity.

Poor Ilurna iIty!

The common lot Is ons of sorrow say at least--the pessimisis, they who look at the worst side Certainly what would otherwise be bright existence, is often shadowed by some ,ilment that over hangs it like pail, obscuring perpet- ually the radiance that else would light the path. Such all ailment, and very common one, is nervousness, or in other words, weakness of the nervous system, a condition only iIremediable where in- efficient or improper means are taken to relieve it. The concurrent experience of nervous people who have consistently used Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is, that it conquers entirely supersensitiveness of the nerves, as well as iseases 80 called which are invited itnd sustained by their chronic weakness. As the nerves gain stamina from the great tonic the trouble disappears. Us, the Enters for malaria, rheumatism, biliousness and kidney troubles

Quld nuncs, who have an itching for seeing the essence of their brains in print, are still harping upon the Casa Grande school. Editors who give place to such radiance as is contained m those communications, in mercy to their readers, would do well to smoth- CT such desire in the waste basket. What is wanted in school, in order to preserve discipline, is a modicum of birch, which is necessary adjunct to the development of youthful minds
 A resident of Casa Grande informed us that the cause of the languishing of the school there is that parents whose children receive gratuitouS instruction in that berg are dissatisfied when their hopeful offspring are corrected for trangressing the rules, become mifTed, lnterpose parental authority, consider 7onny's education complete, and turn him loose, his mind blank.

TAunAGr's OPINION OF THE PRESS.

Rev. Talmage in a sermon delivered in Brooklyn, New York, Feb. 23d, said: In our day the mightiest roll IS the religious and secular newspaper, aud the mightiest pen is the editors pen, whether for good or evil And God says now to every literary man, and especially to every journalist; Flake thee u great roll, and write it with mans pen. < praise the pulpit and magnify my office, but state which you all know when l say that where the pulpit touches one person the press touches 500, The vast majority of people co not go to church, but all intelligent people read the newspapers. While, therefore, the responsibility of the ministers is great, the responsibility of editors and reporters IS greater, Some one might say to me: "How can you talk thus of the newspaper press, when you yourself have sometimes been unfairly treated and misrepresented?' l answer that in the opportunities the newspaper press of this country and other coun- tries have gwen me week by week to preach tue Gospel to the nations, am put under so much obligation that l defy editors and reporters, the world over, to write anything that shall call forth from me one word of bitter re- tort from now till the day of my death My opinion is, that all retormerS and religious teachers, instead of spending so much time and energy Tn denounc- ing the press, had better spend more time in thanking them for what they have done for the worlds intelligence and declaring their magnificent oppor- tunlty and urging their employment of it all for benifcent and righteous purposes.

A Washington dispatch says: A very great deal of bitterness has been engsndered over the struggle now going on before Congress as to wheth- CT the captive ApacheS shall or shall not be removed to Indian Territory, where they will be virtually in posi- tion to resume thelr raiding in Arizo- na. Protests against the proposed re- moval continue to pour in from set tiers in Arizona, and even Mexico has taken the alarm, Minister Romero having filed with the State Depart ment letter of protest from his Gov. ernment stating that Mexico is not desirous of having repetition of her experience with these raiding outlaws from across the border.
 General Miles, who is still here, is making a strong fight agalnSt the pro- posed removal, and he is ably seconded by Governor Wolhey. Their efforts, however, are opposed in negative way by the Indian Bureau and more strongly by a number of army officers who are partisans of General Crook, whose hatred of Miles has led to the whole trouble. The plain fact of the case is that Crook hates Miles because the latter was victorious where he tailed.

How happy Is the home
Wherein contentment dwers-
There labor's restless loom
The song of concord swells;
There comfort proud presides
O'er fortunes scanty store.
And gladness calmly glides
Unceasing through its door.
Happy is the sphere
Where love supremacy reigns-
There faith forestalleth fear,
And JOY precludeth pains;
There pleasures crown the day
In sweet and swift increase,
And heaven spreads DER the way
The golden arch Of peace.
