COMPLAINTS have frequently been made to this office by residents on the south side of the railroad, that 1he sewer system of the section house is in very poor condition. The filthy water I'll s all over the street and in this hot weather is very odoriferous and extremely un- healthy. Besides this, the water obstructs one of our principal busi- ness streets. It does seem to us that the railroad company would move the section house to some other site. It is now right in the middle of rail road avenue.

The house was large and roomy, the floors excellent and the walls, though unfinished, were very pret- tily decorated, not with the COW boys regalia (overalls, chaps, etc., but with wild flowers and ferns, which had been gathered during the afternoon from the mountain side. Dancing commenced at an early hour and was continued with zest until supper was announced, when everybody repaired to the grand dining hall, with its carpet of soft velvety green, lighted by a huge chandelier, swung over the snow capped San Francisco's, yelled by soft floating clouds, one could easily imagine they were attending a fairy revelry, the romantic surrounding would have caused even more sim pie repast to appear luxurious.
 But just think Lovely black berries in pheton baskets, ice cream and all manner of confect- ionery and cake, that was almost too good to eat, together with the more substantial ham and coffee, formed a repast not soon to be for gotten by those hungry dancers.
 After supper dancing was resum- ed until streaks of light in the east reminded everybody that it was time to go home.> Then your cor respondent turned away with sigh that was filled with sadness and said: "Twas ever thus"

 After a charming picnic at the Little Spring, the pleasure seekers repaired to the cowboys headquar- ters for a genuine old-fashioned country dance, where they were re- ceived with a difference and loyal hospitality that we think is rarely equalled and never exceiled in any country.

THE department of Arizona as now constituted at Los Angeles is to be done away with, and after next month will be known as the Department of California, with headquarters at San Francisco The sea air is much more healthful for officers and congenial for the privates. Since the brilliant victory of few days ago by which few dozen Apaches were converted into Mexicans, the headquarters will not be so near the scene of the trouble as heretofore. If the military authorities would study the feeling of Arizona's citizens they would not stop short of Alaska. -Prospec- toF:

WE regret exceedingly to note the depression in the wool market, Our eastern correspondent writes that wool of all grades has declined fully Sc per pound during the last 30 days and those of the heavy fine discrlption are the least in demand. With mills shutting down and an overstock of woolen goods from last year held by both manufactures and jobbers, and the increased tightness in the money market, and last but not least the almost certainty that the Mckinley bill will not become law this year, all combined to cause the wool outlook to be most dis couraging to our growers. We ad- wise them, however, to accept the situation gracefully, remember past good seasons and hope for better times in the future.

The Maine Farmer thinks THE PRESS has
criticised too soon the proposition to have
agriculture taught in the common schools,
and refers us to an able argument made in
behalf of the PROPOSITION by Edwin Wiggin.
Esq, of Maysville. 1t must be conceded
that there Is much reason In what Mr.. Wig
gin says. He holds that there Is too much
drudgery and too little intelligence put into
the work Of many farmers, and argues that
great benefit would result IL the farmer boys
could be instructed In the common schools in
the chemistry Of plant life and the proper
ties and analyses of fertilizers. 1t would be
very excellent If such chemistry could be
taught In the country schools, and If every
farmers boy could master it. But is this
practicable in schools 10 such state as the
common schools of Maine at the present
time are In? In the high schools, attended
largely by boys who never expect to become
farmers. 1t might be practicable to give the
most advanced scholars some intelligent and
practical understanding of the very compli-
Gated chemistry of vegetable organisms
But the district schools are having all they
can do now to teach the barest rudiments of
an education; and there must be revolu-
tion in their management, both financial and
pedagogic, before they can undertake any
such thing as the giving Of an education in
the science Of agriculture, even If the addi-
ton of this new study would not crowd out
more important things. As matter of fact,
the boy who is well grounded In the rud-
ments Of al education is fitted to pursue in
vestigatious Of his own, If he has the
ambition and taste to do so. We have in
this State an agricultural experiment station
which is established for the purpose of aid
ing the farmer in doing his work more INTEL
lgently. If he is well grounded in the rudi-
ments of an education he may be able to
avail himself of its advantages understand
ly. But it is difficult to see how it will be
any advantage to force the farmer boy into
chemistry at an early age, when he needs all
his advantages to gain the things absolutely
necessary for common school education. 1t
will hardly give him practical knowledge,
and he is too sharp to be fooled by the sugar
coating of school instruction, If he has al
ready come to consider farm labor bitter
