Discouraging immigration.

We would not advise you to come
West under the idea that you can
make a cart-load of money in your
business in a year or two. There
are not only plenty of undertakers
out this way, but, owing to certain
peculiarities, the business is not as
hourishing as it might be. Our
people don't make much of funer-
ais. The idea is that after a man
is dead he isn't good for much, and
it's wonderful how cheap you can
cut the figures, if you SO desire.

Itis not to be denied that good ses- ing machine IS one of the most important appurtensnccs of the modern house hold.
 We thought we had good machine until enc day the agent of the NEW HoIr presented himself at our door and pro- ceedcd to deliver an oration upon it's characteristic merits.
 But, we answered." ''our machine sTits us we'll and we do not care for another. 9
 The agent, however, begged the privi- lege of leaving one of his machines with us'' for the ladies to try
 The request was not unreasonable, so we granted it-but more to oblige the agent than anything else; for we really did not want the machine, and has not the reno test idea of buying it.
 The machine once in the house, it was natural that the ladies should look it over: they did so, and as a consequence fell in lo"e with it, They Say that without the slightest wish to decry or disparage any aother machine, this, all things considered, is ip their opinion, the most disirable one to be had

On the contrary he sent up 2O-pound box to the Mills House, that was finer if possible than the ones which took the first prize in the City Hall exhibit.

 Captain J. c. Beatty, of the City of Mexico, was in Tucson. The Star says that Captain Beatty repre- sents the Altar Land and Coloni- zation Company Of Sonora, Mexico, which has over 100000 acres of fine agricultural and grazing land in the vicinity of Altar and extend ing from the Boundry line down to the Gulf of California. Captain Beaty states that it is the intention of the company to colonize the land with Europeans and that they have joined hands with an English syn dicate in the enterprise.
 NJ. Riveroll; an enterprising citizen of Ensenada, has applied to the Mexican government for con- cession to operate paper mill at Ensenada, intending to utilize the maguey plant. He is in cores pondence with English capitalists, who will go into it with him. There is no reason if this industry can be made successful in Lower California why it should not becomeproftable in Arizona, where the plant grows atits maximum degree of perfection in all properties which make it de- sirable for the manufacture of fine quality of paper.-Prospector.

 The following is a list of the laws passed by the Fifteenth legislature aud taken to the Governor for sig nature but not returned by him with or without approval within the statutory limit of ten days, Sun day excluded, and which are now effective under the decision that the legislature did not adjourn sine die until April 10, 1889. These laws were yesterday declared valid by a decision of Judge Kibbey. In reply to the Herald mans in quiry as to why these laws have not been published, Secretary Mur- phy said that they had been retain ed in the possession of the Governor until he as Acting Governor had decided to turn them over to the Secretary's office for file with in- structions to furnish certified cop ies on demand, and to publish them now in pamphlet form after adver- vertising for bids as required by law would not only be confusing but would consume the time from now until the session of the 18th.

To whole or last-that caused the strife
Between John Bowman and his wife;
For John, peaceable bread-winner,
Had brought chicken home for dinner,
And while in the kitchen looking,
Expressed his preference for the cooking.
"You must whole it, - said John Bowman;
81 will last it, said the woman.
"I will not eat it if you last it,
But through the window will cast it. -
Said the husband in loud voice,
Said Mrs B. ''I'n have my choice,
And would sooner take lickin'
Than at your bidding whole the chicken"
He said no more-She gained the day,
Which proves the sdage, should say,
That women always have their way,
The inference we may further draw,
That every woman's will is law,

The Texas Spring Palace is an original
conception for presenting to the public
the products and resources of the state.
It is not a fair, in any sense of the term +,
but a "Karporama'-a picture of the
fruits of the soil, the orchard, the gar
den, the farm, the forest, the mines
the streams-each wrought into form
and shape with great ingenuity and ar
tistio skill. The visitor who attends the
Palace to see crazy quilts, lace handker-
chiefs, embroidery, threshing machines,
clothes wringers, ETC., etc., will find
these articles conspicuous only by their
absence. The grains of the country he
will find represented by ashsausifui pic
ture of the gold esq &c the forest, con-
structedt cereals, and clad in raiment
uAdsScf the same material, the whole
presenting veritable picture, beautiful,
attractive and pleasing. Every product
of the soil is treated IN the same manner +,
and when finished the whole Palace pre-
sents more the appearance of a scene
from Fairyland, than q gathering of the
products of the earth.
In addition to this the threshed grains
and other products are presented by
samples in show cases, on shelves and in
glass jars, neatly arranged for exhibi-
ton.
The birds of the state are there treated

scene that surrounds them. II were
futile to attempt q description of this
wonderful work. A few have attempted
it, and we reproduce the efforts of some
Of the more distinguished. The Fort
Collins (Col.) Courier condensed the
whole in a single sentence, exclaiming:
"It rivals all the visions of youthful

The BuOyrus (ohio) Telegraph, recog-
