Perhaps the readers OF the HERALD
would like to know in what respect
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is better
than any other. We will tell you.
When this Remedy is taken as directed,
as soon as a cold has been contracted,
and before it has become settled in the
system, it will counteract the effect Of
the cold and greatly lessen it'sseverity,
if not etfectually cure the cold in two
days tine and it is the only remedy
tina: will do this. 1t acts in perfect
harmony with nature and aids nature
in relieving the lungs, opening the
secretions, llquefying the mucus and
causing it's expulsion from the air
cells of the lungs, and restoring the
system to a strong and healthy condl-
tion. No other remedy in the market
possesses these remarkable properties.
No other will cure a cold us quickly or
leave the system in as sound a condi-
tion. 5Ocents and one dollar bottles

An excursion train, under the man
agement of Raymond and Whitcomb
from Boston, passed through Tucson
Thursday on its way to California. The
excursionists stopped over here only a
short time and had no opportunity of
enjoying any of the attractions present
ed by this city. One of these. who did
not remember in time, that he needed
a shave, WAS left behind. but left en- last
nights train. The train consisted Of
nine vestibule cars elegantly and commo-
diously fitted up.
1t appears after all, THE noisy meeting
of the school electors night before last
amounted to naught, inasmuch as it
was left discretionary with the board of
school trustees, whether or not they
shall dispose Of the school lot.
These gentlemen avow that they
will sell the property provided
they obtain a good price for it, other
wise not. They will hold meeting to
decide this question as soon as Mr.. Hol-
laday, member, now abse Mt from Tue
son, returns to the city. This will be
come time next week.

WolHey VS.. Crook.

A Washington Post man last week IN
terviewed Governor Wolhey about Gen
eral Crooks wall over the poor dear
Apaches at Mt. Vernon Barracks. The
Governor does not join in Crooks sor-
row. In fact he showed the reporter
that while General. Crook now pictures
the numbering rascals as perishing Of
Iniasm, he reported to the war Depart
ment, January 6, 1890, that 1.-The Indians
appeared, with few exceptions, to be
hearty and strong"
The general now claims he subdued
the warning Apaches before leaving to
take his new command at Chicago. That
General Miles then came along and ship
led all the good Indians back east
iodiscriminately with the bad ones.
Again Governor Nolfey pulled Gener
81 Crooks official report upon him as
follows: 1.-THE final surrender of Geroni-
mo and his small band 70 General Miles
vas brought about only through Chiri
cahuas who renamed friendly TO the
Government. When his services were
no longer required, Chatto received an
honorable discharge and returned to his
farm" Governor Wolfiey refers to
Crooks anger because Arizona honored
and rewarded General Miles for winding
no the Indian trouble in workmanlike
manner. Also to Crooks own aduis-
sion that ''it would not be wise to return
the Apaches 10 their own country"
With regard TO Chatto the Governor
said: General Crook misrepresented
this msn 10 the President. He is the
hloodlest fiend of the bride. Asa matter
OF fact he did not render any good or
other service to the Government in the
pursuit and capture Of the numerous
band that followed Geronimo. He went
with General Crook simply to escape
trial on indictments for the murder Of
Judge MCComas, his wife, their little
by and others, and General Crook,
with bayonets, protected and shielded
him from the civil authorities" After
referring TO Crooks betrayal, in the
Sierra Madre campaign, by his lauded
Al aches scout, TO their hostile breth-
reI Governor explained that those In
di; rs might nearly as well be returned
TO Arizona at once, as brought back to
the Indian Territory, only to find their
wav EeIe little later.
In conclusion he told the reporter that
''ro greater outrage to the people of Arr
IONA could be perpetrated than TO per-
hit Of such results. Since the capture
and transT ortation Of these Indians by
Gt neral Miles in 1886, there as been

A Beautiful Place.

| Fruit culture is decidedly in its in
fancy in this county, and few Of its resi-
dents are aware of the wonderful fer
tility of our soil. A visit to Mr.. eros
setta's place in this valley will, however,
at once show a person the remarkable
change which little energy will effec:
| On the appaTeat sterility of our soil
| Through the kindness Of Mr.. Grossetta,
a representative OF the CITIZEN was
furnished an enjoyable ride to that gen
tleman's place. where he was very agree
ably surprised at its beauty.
Mr.. Grossetta owns 160 acres Of land
about % miles north of Tucson, and
since he obtained possession Of this
place he has been endeavoring to beau
tify and improve it. Last year he set
out 1000 grape vines and $50 fruit trees;
at present he has % acres under cultiva-
ton on which he has planted 1900 grape
vines. covering an area of 10 acres; 800
apricot trees, 500 peach trees, $50 al
monGs, 30 apple trees, D ounce, 30 pear,
10 olive and 20 fig tress, in all 4,545 trees
and vines. These are all in healthy
condition, and Mr.. Grossetta states that
their growth has been remarkably rapid,
much more so than that OF trees in any
part Of California. Apricot trees which
were planted last year with stock only
half an inch IN diameter, now have
branches an inch and half thick and
will begin to bear fruit this year. The
growth OF the vines and other trees have
been equally remarkable.
Mr.. Grossetta has no running water
with which to irrigate his orchard, but
does this from wells. At first he had
two wind mills capable of pumping $500
gallons per hour, which he used. Find
ing, however, that these were not sutfi
Gent for his purposes, he added No. 8
Nye steam pump with q capacity Of
1900 gallons per hour. He experienced
some difficulty with this pump and to
ensure success ne concluded TO put up o
No 6 Knowles pump capable of throwing
5000 gallons per hour. which he did.
He claims that with his two pumps
and wind-mills he can easily irrigate GO
acres of LAND, and he has bad no difficulty
to supply his orchard with sufficient
water. The older orchard Mr.. Grossetta
irrigates once month and the younger
one about every 10 days. He has taken
much pains in the tilling OF the land,
and on this account perhaps, he is meet
ing with such success. Every time he
irrigates his land, he plows it up care
fully and harrows it so as always to keep
it in pulverized and spongy condition.
Mr.. Grossetta's is the fist systematic
experiment in fruit culture in this coun-
try, and the eminent success demon
strates the fact that with care and cul-
tivation, vines and fruit trees can be
made to flourish in our soil. The fact
that at depth of 40 feet. Mr. Grossetta
has obtained an exhaustless supply of
water, proves the existence of under
ground currents in our valley, which, if
brought to the surface. would convert
INTO garden what now is called q des-
ert.

besides an elegant suite of fine rooms
for Mr.. Rhodes and his good wife.
The company has a store, which is I'M
der the supervision of Mr.. James o.
Stanford, thoroughly competent gen
tleman. James is no tenderfoot, and
has lived long in western mining camps;
consequently, when upon his arrival at
Washington, the 'old timers" began to
poke Mexican dobes at him for standard
dollars, they were doomed to disappoint-
ment.

man, furnishes beef for the camp, and
