1O3 Years Old.
Kansas City Marketer.

The census enumerators in this city developed many queer characteristics of the human family, the most notable among them, however, was a Mrs. Durr, who claimed to be and undeniably is, the greatest traveller on earth. Her visit to Kansas City was in the interest of her grandson, Col Joseph Durr, of Tue son, Arizona, for whom she expressed great fondness.
 In common with the rest of her sex the old lady was somewhat retlcent about her age, but finally she ac- knowleged she would be 103 in October next. She had but recently been to Europe, and had twenty times made the tour of the continent in the interest of her grandson and had bought in every market in the world. Col. Phil. Armour, the noted packer, in whose office the old lady chanced to be on business, stated to K. c. M. reporter, who called later and sought an interview with Mrs. Durr, that regularly once a month he
  one to two carloads of the best hams, bacon and lard put up in his establish ment. Cash" said he, always com mands good articles, and Mrs. Durr does business wholly on that basls." The reporter, on being introduced, was am aged at the sprightly old lady who had turned the century-mile post with the undiminished vigor of youth, and invo- luntarily exclaimed, "warum, darum."
 To a gentleman present who had been to Arizona and knew her grandson, she volubly expressed her admiration as she clasped her hands together and mur- mured, "alles wurst, and then piled him with more questions about "mein enkel, |" than General Porter had in his entire census bureau. She wanted to know how he was getting along, If he was we'll liked by the people, if he took a hand in good Republican politics, @as still fond of the girls, and above all, if he sold cheap as she instructed. On be- ing told that her every wish was grati- fled and that "mein enkel" never had a cactus in his leg and would make bet ter governor than the present incum- bent, who was generally regarded as a mistake of the worst kind, she wept warum darum tears of joy and said, ''he keeps me busy all the time. To-day it is carload of whiskey from the most famous Kentucky stills, tomorrow a carload of wine from Napa Valley, the next day carload of Anheuser Busch or John Wieland's family beer, and of table delicacies. I am never done buy ing" With that she picked up her hand satchel containing a 600-pound Swiss cheese, purchased for her grandson when she was last in Switzerland, bade all good bye and took the first train for St. Louis, declaring that the next man who quizzed her about her age would be sat down upon, and when she did it she would have a 6O0-pound Swiss cheese on her lap.

 Secretary Arid Land Committee,
 TUCsoN, ARIz My Dear Sir:-I am in receipt of the resolution adopted at the mass meeting of the people of Pima county in the City Hall of the city of Tucson, on the l7th day of June, 1890, in regard to the con struction placed by the department on the appropriation bill segregating the arid lands from settlement.
 It gives me pleasure to assure you, and through you, the citizens of Pima coun- ty, that l have been extremely Giligent both in the House and Senate in my ef- forts to repeal the objectionable clause of that bill. I introduced bill to that end in the House early this session and have labored necessarily with the com mittes to obtain favorable report. I have not succeeded. I have met with better success in the Senate where have gone day after day and have talked personally to almost every member of that body in an effort to persuade the Senate to repeal that measure. The bill is now under discussion in the Senate and the appearances are favorable for us. There will be another hard fight when We get to the House.
 You can rest assured that I have felt the momentous interest involved in the decision of the Secretary of the Interior and have acted accordingly.
 Thanking you for the aid which these resolutions may give me in the House on the argument of this measure.
 remain very sincerely yours,

The Druggists

Tn Lowell, Mass, agree in saying that they sell more of Hoods Sarsaparilla than of all other blood puriaerA For instance:
 F. c. GooDALI: I sell more of Hoods sarsapa- rilla than all other blood purifiers.
 A. W. Dows & Co.,: Hoods takes the lead of all other sarsapsrillas.
 c. F. BLANCHARD: We sell more of Hoods Sar- saparilla than of any similar.
 MARsroN & SHAW: With us the sale of Hood ' fl to of any other kind.
 F& E. BAILEY & Co.,: Hoods sarsaparilla is one of the best medicines
 CARLTON & HovKY: Hoods sarsaparilla is one of the best medicines we have. Its sale increases every year.
 FP. MooDY: We sell twice as much of Hoods sarsaparilla e of anything similar.
 c. A. SWAN: Hoods isthe most popular s.rsa- parilla of the day.
 aTHIRrr OTHER druggists speak similarly. This popularity at home, where Hoods Sarsa- parills and its proprieton have been known for many ysars, could not continue if the medicine did not posseas merit And these facts should certainly convince people in other sections of the country that Hoods sarsaparils is . good, reliable medicine

 Dear Sir:-I am in receipt of your let ter of the 18th ultimo, enclosing resolu- tions concerning the decision of the At torney General with reference to the reservation of the arid lands of the Un- tied States. The matter to which you refer has been under consideration in the House and it was determined to in- crease the appropriation to S720,0OO in order that the survey of the arid lands might be complese at once, and thus enable the President to throw open such lands to occupation. The matter is now before the Senate, and will be carefully considered there in connection with the general demand that the present law should be repealed. In any proposed legislation that may come before the House, your resolutions will receive careful consideration.

Heavy rains occurred Saturday in the upper Gila valley, infiicting damage to the Farmers canal to the extent of a couple of hundred dollars.
 In less than a month Governor Vol tiey has pardoned quite batch of pri- soners. At the present rate it will not take long to effect complete depopula- tion of that institution.
 From the manner people hereabouts are embarking in new stores and similar pursuits, we believe that the prospects for Yuma becoming an important mer- cantile town Tn the near future were never brighter than they are at present.
 4 cloud-burst on Saturday last at Car ga Muchacho gave the Paymaster mill such a deluge that temporary shut down became necessary. The main shefI of the mine is being sunk with all pos sible speed and is already down four menced at four hundred and fifty feet The ere showing is hatterirg, bidding fair for continuous work during many months to come.

 The Republican Central Committee have issued d call for a county conven- tion to elect delegates to the Territorial convention, and for the transaction of such other business as may properly be brought before it. This idea is a good one, which the opposite party should not hesitate to initiate, for it will go far to- wards putting an end to the political manipulations of d few unrepresentative men who imagine that their own wishes should be made paramout to those of the great body of voters.

He was in Phenix on Friday, and on Satur- day passed through Tucson en route to Nogales where he met Cover nor Corral, of Sonora, and conferred about matters pertaining to the maraud- ing Indians that are now alternating between Mexico and the United States.

A man named Smith is very sick at Christensen's corral, where he has lain since Sunday morning. He has a piece of fiy netting over his face and has his clothes ou. He has only been in Tucson for six days, coming here from Mexico. Owing to this fact the county has no right to admit him to the hospital, though application has been made for his admission there. It is not unlikely that the man will die unless something day it transpired that he belonged to the order os Masons. Members of that order offered him everything he needed. money, hospital treatment etc., all of which he declined, though he is perfect ly willing to accept assistance from the county.
 There is on exhibition at Blacks Jewelry Store to-day large banner for the G. A. R. of this place, painted by Miss Lorette Lowell, which is truly a beauty. The design consists of true Arizona scene, representing the cactus and other Arizona vegetation with mountains in the background, all natural as in real life. Hidden behind rocks and cacti can be seen armed Indians watch ing the movements of prospector, who is unloading his burro. The banner is a beauty and a specimen of true artistic skill. in which Miss Lowell may justly take pride as being its banter, and which the G. A. R. will doubtless count as one of their treasures. The banner will be on exhibition tomorrow, and those who miss seeing it miss something fine.
