 pr. Hughes, of the Phenix Gazette,
 has been recommended for the posi-
 tion of physician to the Phenix In dian School. pr. Hughes connec- tion with the abortion case, in Phe- nix, has probably led Prof. Rich, of the Indian school to make the rec ommendation. The same general insults, as in the above case, would soon fill nice littie grave yard. with hopeful young bucks, if the little fellows, who attend the school will only aecommodatingly take the collie, and other popular ailments, The Indian problem still nearer grows to a successful solution.
 A press dispatch from Omaha says that there is rumor being circu- lated there about army headquarters to the effect that army headquarters of the department of Arizona will probably be moved from California to Denver and the state of Colorado will be taken from the department of the Platte. Gen. Brooke was asked about the matter, but would not express an opinion.

 New interest has been attached to the Salton sea by the publication of very improbable story. about the finding of a hulk of ship there sometime m the remote past. The story is based on an Indian legend, backed up by very indefinite tale told by a miner the details being filled in by an imaginative news paper reporter. The alleged ship is to be the remains of an old Spanish galleon which was load ed with treasure. If the fool killer wants to make a big haul, he should take station near the Salton sea and for the fellows who go in there to seek this treasure laden ship.

 Ex-Governor F. A. Tritle has de ided not to attend the constitutional unless questions of i'm ,ortance, affecting the interests of Northern Arizona should arise and equire his presence there. In the ase of such an emergency he will be perfectly willing to make the sac flies necessary to attend. By his ction he will save the territory be- ween 800 and S3O0 and while he is apabable of rendering as valuable nd efficient service to the territory s any member of the convention, we 'elieye and broadly assert, that hould every member of the conven- ion attend and should they put orth their very best efforts, in the irection of performing the duties ssigned them the territory will not e benefited by the amonnt re- uired to pay single member his opinions is very generally en- ertained throughout Northern Ari- ona, but whether Gov.
