ruins reclaimed by the Arizona canal a
continuous line, Of over 100 miles in
length.
Here, too, the settler has been at
work, and the ruin has sprung into
new life under the rather unromantic
name Of Buckeye canal. Notwith-
standing, however, the changes
wrought by the new order OF things,
the old canal can be traced for miles
beyond the line Of the present settle
ments. So distinct are its remains.
that teams can be driven through
them with case while between il and
the ella river, in the lands irrigated
from 1t, can be found the relics OF the
older civilizations in profusion, not
only in the shape Of ruined buildings,
but pottery, stone implements and
weapons, she'll ornaments, etc.
1t is on this canal, after il has cross
ed the Hassayampa river, that one
finds the strongest evidence Of the
great length of time during which this
system Of irrigation was obtained.

A JOKE on TEVIs.
Phenlx Gazette.

Phenlx Gazette.
Assembyman j. II. Teyis, Of Co
.chise county, is a practical joker, but
yesterday he was lifted clear out of
his boots. Mr.. Tevis, who is crony
of Speaker Clark, asked the speaker to
come with him and he would intro
duce him to Governor Irwin; to this
Mr. Clark readily assented and down
the stairs the two old democrats me-
andered to meet the new governor.
Mr. Teyis opened the door of the
governors Office and, meeting portly
little man, he removed his hat and,
with bow that would do honor to
Governor Zulick, presented Speaker
Clark to Governor Irwin.
The governor" looked confused,
and to relieve his embarrassment the
speaker asked him how he liked his
newly acquired duties. "Well" an
swered the governor in a voice that
bespoke Of an acquaintance with the
Rhine, 81 like my new duty, but | was
going to ask the legislature TO increase
my salary as it makes my hands sore
to clean those new spittoons, and that
council chew heapo tobacco. " Clark,
looked at Tevis and Tevis looked at
Clark. Teyis said, "oh Ill" Clark,
in a voice that was as soulless as
Churchills conscience replied, "Tevis,
1 have business with you. sir, upstairs,
lets go and take drink" and away
capered the two old Cochise represen-
tatiyes 10 discuss what q fine looking
man Janitor Proops was, TO be nothing
but janitor.

TEE CAPITAL QUESTION.

Albuquerque Citizen.
Eyes, sir" replied Sheriff Luna, OF
Valencia county, who returned yester-
day evening from Santa Fe, "the re-
moyal Of the capital to Albuquerque
is being strongly and earnestly adyo-
Gated by majority Of the members of
both branches OF the legislature, and
just before l left the ancient town
yesterday was told that bill to that
effect would be introduced in the
lower house this morning. 1 hardly
think that a man in that branch can
be found who would record bis vote
aginst albuquerque, while in the
council there are seven out OF twelve
in favor OF the removal to this city.
The bill would doubtless be vetoed by
the governor, but that extra vote in
the council to pass it over his ex-
cellency's veto could easily be obtained.
l tell you, the capital removal ques-
tion is at boiling point, and it is
coming; mark my prediction"

The Nogales Record says that the
present Mexican Congress is agitating
the question Of adopting the system Of
granting titles and patents to mining
claims in all portions Of the Republic
not even excepting the "Zona Libre"
or dead Line" extending the same
rights to foreigners as to Mexican cit
izens. This, if accomplished is move

An exchange INDUCES in little COW
poetry which is not so bad. 1t sails of
!nto the dreamy mazes Of rhythm, as
follows: "a short time since the COW
was sad; she scarce could raise her
head begad Her hoofs were sore, her
tail was limp: her name and bangs had
lost their crinp,and miles she trudged
from grass to drink, with scarcely
strength enough to wink. The owner
too, looked blue and glum. and cursed
the cattle business some. But since the
rains the grass is tall-the cow can
raise her head and bawl; her hide is
slick, no bones protrude, she prances
like Tucson dude. Her tail erect, her
eyes are bright, she snorts and dares
the crowd to fight. Her owner, too, digs
up the chink, and asks the boys to take
drink. God bless the rain, the gentle
rain; it makes a man feel young again.
He feels like tOssir up his hat, and
bowling like a democrat

Insurance Cripples.

A. N. Lockwood, president of an ac-
cident association in New York. says
that since the accident companies Offer
ed an indemnity of $4,000 for the loss Of
a hand or foot there has been great in
crease ia the number of accidents to the
left hand, so many indeed. that it was
found that people were manning them
selves to get the insurance. Finally the
companies were forced to Offera less sun,
for the left hand than for the right, since
which time there has been a decrease
of eighty percent in that kind of acct
dents. Now the company proposes to
eliminate the leg and arm clauses from
their policies for self-protection. MIR.
Lockwood says there are more insurance
cripples in the country to-day than war
cripples.-Chioago Times.
