IT HAS Just been discovered that
the Grand canon OF the Colorado river
is rich in precious metals. For a dis
tance OF 10 miles there are indications
OF gold. Already there i, hurried
movement toward the canon, and
within few weeks it will be swarming
in all probability with miners, gamblers
and adventurers- The wonders OF the
west will never cease. Even the des-
erts that were considered worthless are
being changed into productive fields by
means of irrigation

The pIrallelism between the unification
OF Germany and that of Italy is one OF
the curiosities OF modern history.
There Is something fitting. therefore.
in the fact that the founder OF German
unity should be succeeded in the Chan

To obtan light instantly without the use of matches, and without the danger of setting things on fire, is an easy matter. Take an oblons. vial of the cIearest of glass, put into 1t piece of phosphorus about the size of pea, upon this ponr some pure olive oil heated to the boiling. point, the bottle to be filled about one-t third full; then cork tightly. To use the light, remove the cork, allow the air to enter, and then recors. Tho whole empty space in ihe bottle will then become llniin- GUS, and the light obtained will be a good one. As soon as the light be- comos dim, its power can be increased by opening the bottle and allowing a fresh supply of air to enter In very cold weather il is sometimes necessary ta heat the vial between the hands to increase tue tuidity of ibe oil, and one bottle will last all winter.

It would give the people of Phoenix even more of the official pap than they now receive and would allow them to build their much need ed and covetej north and south rail gay. But, whilst wishing Mancopa county success in its proud march of progress, the Sentinel does not believe that the balance of Arizona can afford to be sacrificed solely fQr ihe benefit of the people of Salt River Valley.

The se,, nri,,.., crn,as.

Next April ite British census will be taken. So far as possible, the work of enumeration will eotea The EitIsh Empire, and the effort will be to make the census tue most compre- hensiye yet taken. To this end the schedules will be simpiiiied. No in- quiries will bs made as to religious faith or creed, and those bearing on occupations will be cenlehsed The census will be stripped of everything that could make enumeration cumber some, and the great end and aim will De to ascertain the nui,,bei of subjects of Queen Victoria. There are sections of her dominions where only approSi- nations are possible. In British Zam. besa CT the Niger Protectorate the werk Q. the enumerator would en- counter pecnliar obstacles, not only in the unwiiiugness Of the inhabitants to be enumerated, but their perfect willingness to reduce totals by slaugat- eung census attaches. But, making all these allowances, tie fovthcolflinr census will doubtless be very satisfac- tory. It will at ali events show that the British Empire has somewhat more than 330,00000e enurneratahle inhabitants, unless current forecasts have been unduly eolored by the nat ural boastfulness of Englshmen, a quahty in which they strongly resem- ble their kinsmen this side the AtiaD- i tic.

 endeavoring to pull him from his tenn
 porary grave whie r;iing by al full speed. l. i: very hard thing to do. as the rooster, who has no love ft, the sport, invariably dodges hi, head when
 rider makes a sweep for his neck.
 During the performance two of ths borsmen Eho were riding at full speed towards each other, had collision, their horses coming together like a battering ram, knocking both riders into the ar One nf the horses had q shoulder dislocated, and one of the
 men was badly injured by going against the born of the sF1dle with

 was broken. The man was in great
