THE ALTAR LANDS.
The Gentlemen We'll Pleased with
 their Inspection.

The party of eastern capitalists who went into Sonora to inspect the lands recently patented by the Mexican gov ernment to the Altar Land & Coloniza- lion Company, returned to this city few days since well pleased with the trip, enthusiastic over their investment and profuse in their praises of the people who had received and extended to them so many courtssies in Tucson, on he road and in Mexico. They were especially gratltied at the lol.rtcsies of Mir. Lodoza, the Mexican Collector of Customs at Sasable, and of MT. Zabriskie. the mounted Inspector of customs of the American service.
 The party consisting of eight persons proc .eded by way of Tasabe, El Rejues Rancclio de Corelia, VinGterIa de Zepda, Fl Plomo aad the Sonoita valley to the town of Sonoita where Air. C. B. Serven ii, an Italian has ranch and large orchard aud vineyard. The SonoIta belongs to the company and has an ex- tension of 5O0,000 acres every square inch of which Is susceptible of easy cul- tivaJion In yarlous parts of this valley the 'apaGo Indians are engaged Tn tenn porai .arming aud produce large crops of sscora, beans, pumpkins and melons wIthaut either irrigation or cultivation. Their nerds of cattle and ponies ind abundant subsistence in the nutritious grasses that coSer the country every where and drink freely from the charcos or waterholes that exist at present, and at convenient inter ais. Land that will produce abundant under such methods will give the intelligent farmer or hor- ticulturist or vineyardist who uses i'm proved methods of cultivation and mod era improvements, rich harvests either with or without irrigation. With soil unsurpassed everywhere, and climate without equal on the globe. the only problem to be solved IS that of water. The rainfall during the rainy season IS abundant. The problem IS to catch and storo it for future use. It has already been solved on adjourning lands Of prl- vate owners, though perhaps crudely, yet in manner clearly proven what can be done with means under intelligent en- gineering skill.
 The gentlemen who made he inspec- tion are more that satisfied with the quality of the lands they saw and do not consider the question of water sup ply a serious one. With the construction of either the EDsenada, Altar and El Paso railway or the Mexican Pacific, the lands must acquire great value, and bring handsome Tetarns to the company, while, with their settlement Mexico will gain in the development of her indus tries aud Tucson and the northwest will profit by tce new market opened to her merchants and her manufacturing in- dus:r ss.
 The party returned by way of Baudrl, Cabota, and Poso Verde to Sasabe and examined the company's lands south and west of La Osa, owned by MT. w. 5. Sturgis.
 The party was iu charge of MT. J. c. Beatty, general manager, and was ac- companied by Lieutant H. O. Flipper, the company's engeneer.

The total normal school enrolment for October was 90. Sickness lowered the average attendance to 65. The scholars will do better this month.
 Another telegraph wire is being put along the line of the 4. F. railroad. IL will be used as a press report line. The Western Union Telegraph Co, have had so much atrouble during the winter with their line along the Union Pacific road that they were compelled to put up line which could be used all the year around.
 The Wilcox round up stopped work on FEday of last week at the ranch of Thomas Steele. It had been intended to end the work at Summit ranch, but the stray herd numbering some two thousand heed of cattle stampeded Thursday night, and although none of the cattle escaped, when they were re- gathered majority of the stockmen left for their homes witt their cattle and not enough men were left to continue the round up work.
 The Yuma Pumping Irrigation Co., has filed articles If incorporation, with d capital stock of S1,500,000, at Yuma, for the purpose of supplying water from the Colorado for irrigation and domes- tic purposes. Operations have com menced and members of the company are now in the East to look up the re- quisite machinery.
 The facilities of getting election news in Arizona are simply miserable. Even a horse seems to loose his ambition after election day. Some new law should be enacted to satisfy the public appetite for quick returns instead of sealing them up and storing them away in a safe for ten days before opening them.
 About the middle of next month To- stamp quartz mill will arrive from the East at the Needles, and with three car loadf of lumber will be shipped to En- renburg, down the Colorado river by steamer--Booth's Bazoo.
 Harry Crawford of San Marcial New Mexico says the Southwestern Stock man, claiming to be the best COW roper in the United States, desires to rope with any cowboy ill New Mexico or Ari- Zona for purse of from S2OO to SlOOO.
 Phenix Herald.-A. J. Straw, the Bartlett ranch fig raiser, is in town to- day with Peoria election returns. He has his greyhound "Killemquick" with hlm. The dog began killing rabbits when he was eight months old, and in sixteen months since then he has slain oyer 26O of the long cared pests He simply breakes their necks and leaves them for the buzzards. MT. Straw pro- poses to raise herd of that breed of pups and clean out the rabbits of Peoria about as effectually as Peorla cleaned out Zulick and his tribe.

Railroad RattIes.

The passenger train from the east ar rived this morning at 7:30 o'clock. It was late out of El Paso.
 R. w. Gray, a passenger engineer on this division about six years ago, has been appointed master mechanic at tbe $. P. shops, to sn:ceed MT. Carroll.
 Eight machinists have been added to the increase of work of this fail.
 Articles of incorporation of the San Diego, Phoenix & Galveston railroad have been filed at San Diego, which call for the building of a standard gauge road from the bay of San Diego to the eastern boundary of California, at or near Yuma. The capital stock of the corporation is S1, 100000,
 Stretton, the eminent engineer, says that a locomotive of the present type can ne run Cn'y tue least trihe faster than eighty mi.es an hour. A higher speed is prevented by the resistance of the air, the friction and the fact of the back pressure of the cylinders because of the impossibilt of getting the ex haust cam out fast enough.
 The Indianapoli Car and Manufact- uring company, a concern employing 800 hands, was placed in the hands of a re- cstver, by Judge Taylor. Matthews Jennings was named, and his bond placed at S250,O00, which was signed by Stoughton I. Fletcher. John Voorhees,, purchasing agent of the company, filed the action demanding the appointment of receiver, alleging that he holds the companyy's promissory notes for 5000 past due. He claims that the company is insolvent, having debts amounting to S670,000: the assets being about S6OO,- 900, and S75,000 of the liabilities being now due other creditors, who are likely to bring suit at any time. Col Charles Willard, president of the company, thinks the receiver will be able to con tinue the business, and probably in tirie turn it over to the stockholders clear of indebtedness.

Why It Is Twelfth Day.

Tradition says that the twelfth day from Christmas day was remarkable for having been that upon which the visit of the Magf took place. upon which Christ was baptized. the water at Cana turned into wine and the five thousand fed. For 300 years it was kept by east ern Christians as the day upon which Christ was born. and among ourselves it as long observed with great festivities We are told that in the reign of King Alfred law was passed ''by virtue of which the twelve days after the nativity of our Saviour were made festivals"
 The last day was accounted the great est of the twelve, and especially given up to Christmas gambols" and the wis iting of friends. The custom seems long to have continued in force. for in the Sixteenth century Twelfth day seems to have been kept with as much zeal as Christmas The royal family at court led the way. the universities and the inns of court following them in the extent of their festivities At the temple the whole twelve days were kept with great care, and many of the country gentle men followed the same custom In some parts of England the very poorest peo- pie contrived to keep the twelve days with such good cheer for themselves and their neighbors as their means would allow.-Exchange.

A MOUNTAIN OF SALT.
G -eat Divide.

The salt mouD tains located on the banks of the Rio Virgin, an affluent of the Colorado in, Lincoln county. Nevada, cover an era of twenty-five miles, extending to within seven miles of the junction of that stream with the Colorado. Tie salt they contain is pure and white and Clearer than glass, and It IS sad that a pioce scVcn or eight inches thick is sometimes clear enough to see through to read newspaper. Over the salt IS layer of sandstone from two to eight feet thick. and when this is torn away the salt appears like a huge snow drift How deep it is has not yet been been ascertained but sin gle blast of giant powder will blow out tons of it. Under the cap rock have been discovered charred wood and charcoal. and mating made of cedar bark, where the salt has preserved, the camp of pre- historic men.

The noiyoke Lawyer and His Son.

The holyoke Lawyer and His Son.
 Going to Springfield the other day there was seated in the car one of Hol- yoke's legal lights. accompanied by his wife and his 6-year-old son and heir. whose sole ambition in life at present is to learn to whistle. The windows were open. and the boy had been holding on to his hat with one hand for fear it would blow away The conductor coming in slammed the door, and for an instant the boy let go his hat His father reached round through the window and whisked it of his head The boy was disconsolate. Look straight ahead and whistle for it and it will come back. " said his father.
 "I can't whistle. I'm too mad"
 Well, then. I'll try" and the dignified lawyer whistled a few bars of Annie Rooney" and shortly afterwsrd placed the hat on the boys head, whose tears were now turned to smiles Then he stood up in the seat. and snatching his fathers new s tile from his head de- liberately threw it out of the car window, saying. Whistle for it again. papa"- Northampton (Mass.) Journal

Alphonso XIII of Spain if he were old enough to talk plainly would probably formulate the traditional Spanish opin- ion that the king can do no wrong. It is related of him that he was eating hi. luncheon of chicken as it was Queen Elizabeth's habit to eat hers, when his attendant said reprovingly. "Sire. kings do not eat with their fingers:" to which the baby tranquilly responded, "This king does" and went on undisturbed.- Exchanpe

The ore is roasted. but no disagreeable per. fumes arise from the heating process yet there is some unknown substance that changes the hair. beard and eye brows as green as grass. The hair is not injured, but retains it's softness and gloss It is probable that the fumes of the green tint Of copper contained in the ore change the hair to that color.-Vir- ginia City Chronicle.
