This includes loss in cattle. horses, mules and ranch es. Yuma itself lost no less than $50O,O00, not to count the great amount of work that was done to save the levee and private property.-l Sen tinel.

RAIDING INDIANS.
They ShGw Up in the Same Old
 Place Again.

P. Doyle came in last night from San Bernardino ranch and reports a band of Indians in that vicinity. Mon- day morning the men on the ranch heard some shooting near there and ran up on to a small bill. Looking down about a mile they saw three Apaches, who had just killed some beeves out of bunch of cattle. Fear ing that there might be mere in the neighborhood they went back to the house. When Doyle was on his way back to Tombstone yesterday he crossed the trail made by several horses and one moccasin track. This had been made since the day before and led in the direction of the lower Chiricahua mountains. Doyle states that not a ranch on the road up was occupied and not prospector is to be seen any where around. No soldiers or scouts have been in the neighbor- hood of the San Bernardino ranch ol in that section of country. There is scarcely doubt that the renegades are in the Chi,icahua mountains, and they will probably stay there until ready to make another raid through the valley. It is feared that some of the ranchers in Fucker canyon may be taken in by them, as their trail led in that direction.

A hotel man discussing the habit
many guests have of leaving hotel and
forgetting to take all their personal
property with them said last night that
the help employed in hotel is rarely
found to be dishonest. "Chamber-
Raids," he said, "have many opportu-
miles for quietly getting away with
><luables from the room of guest, but
I can not remember half.a.dozen times
in an experience of twenty years as a
hotel manager where this opportunity
was taken advantage of. Every month
some chambermaid or other is accused
of taking some small article from the
room of a guest, but after quiet inves-
tigation it always turns out that the
guest has mislaid it. One of my cham
bermaids was accused once of stealing
a very valuable diamond ring. A guest
had laid it, he said, on the wash-stand,
and that was the last he saw of it. We
hunted high and low but the ring could
not be found. We promised to make
good the loss, but we did not have to do
it, for two days after the owner of the
ring had left the house he wired us that
he had found the ring in pocket the
existence of which he seemed to have

TRAINED CORMORAN7s.
They Arc Used by the Chinese For tn

They Arc Used by the Chinese For the
Purpose of Catching Fish.
Cor,norants are large webb-footed
birds found on rocky coasts in most
parts of the world, and living entirely
on fish. They do not take their prey by
diving when on the wing, but pursue it
by swimming and diving, using their
wings in progress under water and de-
scending to wonderful depth. When
the prey has been caught in manner
announcement for swallowing they toss
it in the air and adroitly catch it Us il
comes down. The name cormorant sig.
mites "a sea crow" and it has also
come to signify glutton, these birds
being exceedingly greedy.
They can be easily tanned and in
China they are regularly trained to
catch fish for their master. They 20
out in boat with him and sit quietly
on the edge of it until they receive his
orders. Then they dash into water,
seize the fish in their beaks and bring
them to him. Should one Of the birds
pounce upon fish too large for it to
carry alone, one of its companions will
come to its assistance, and the two to-
gether will bring it to the boat. Some
times cormorant takes an idle fit and
swims playfully about instead of at
tending to it's business, but it is soon
called to a sense of its duty by its mas
ter who strikes the water sharply with
his oar and shouts at it, when it i'm
mediately stops playing and dives for a
fish. And when the task is completed
the birds are allowed good share of
the fish, which they gobble in even
less time than they took to catch it.
