A Gllmmer of Hope.

The feeling is becoming general among the stockmen of northern Arizona, that at last there Is a glim- mer hope for better prices, and for the first time for several years there are very substantial reasons for this belief. The excessive marketing for the past two years, the clearing out of a large ranges chiefly in the Indian Territory, and the decline in the producing capacity of Amer ican herders are among these req sons, 10 which must be added the increasing demand for export since the inspection law, which is being vigorously enforced, went into ef- feet. The statistics show that last year foreign consumers took $30,- 100000 worth moro of American beef than in 1889, and the increased movement continues. There is every reason to expect that within the next five years our annual cx ports of cattle and fresh and can ned beef will amount in value to not less than S10O,O00,OOO. Stock raising must, therefore, beregarded as one of the country's most prom ising interests.-Jouruai-Miner.

The inquest on the body of Dr. Fetterman was held last night at the rooms of Chas. Granville Johnston and the verdict was-a natural death. No autopsy was held on the body and no evidence being intro duced that he died by foul means no other verdict could be reached. Why a coroner's inquest was not held at Benson, where he died pug zles most people, and why an in quest should have been held here without a post mortem examination being made is another peculiar pro- ceeding. Without an autopsy the inquest was a farce.-Prospector.

Murderer Daley.

The cold-blooded and deliberatt murder of a man in the perform 1 ance of duty rouses the neighbor hood in which the deed is done tc the highest pitch, and the matter is not so soon forgotten as appear ances might indicate.
 About q year ago W. W. Low ther, constable at Bisbee, while in the performance of duty-the serv- ing of a warrant-was deliberately shot dead at the door of the want ed-a party named Daley, 50 years old, hard case and deservedly un- popular. Reward notices were cir culated near and far, in the total sum of s250O, 5000 by the citizens of Bisbee, 5000 by the Copper Queen Co.,, and $500 by the board of supervisors of Cochise county.
 This, it was thought, would sure ly bring the murderer from some point, but such proved not the case. A gentleman in the city from Bis bee now states that in his opinion Daley concealed himself in one of numerous caves in that vicinity, with all of which he was acquaint- ed, and there remained till such op- portunity.of escape as offered could be improved. Then, possibly with the aid of friends he made his es- cape and is believed to have gone to England, where formerly he was engaged as an iron worker, being molder by trade. With the view of confirming this suspicion a par ty in this city having relatives near where Daley was supposed to have
 
 gone, wrote to inquire if such party as tallied with Dailey's de- scription, 50 years old, round face, weighing 165 pound, and giving more minute description, was seen in that portion of the world, and especially if he was to be found around some of the iron works there. A few days ago the answer came. Such a man did come there several months since; he tallies with the description, is an iron worker and can be captured when ever anted.-Citizen.

Desert Land Entries.

Commissioner Carter of the Gen. eral land office, has issued instruc- tions to registers and receivers of land offices in regard to desert land entries. He says that final proof must be made on all desert land entries under the act of March 3, 1891, with four years from date of entry Publication of notice of intention to make final proof must be made in all cases of entries in- stituted after August 1, 1887. When the land has not been surveyed the notice must contain, as nearly as possible without a survey, with as much clearness and precision as possible, giving the locality of the tract, etc, When final proof has been submitted on an entry, if no objections exist, the land officers are notified to approve it and forward the papers to Washington, ,and if the proof submitted is satisfactory they will be directed to issue papers upon payment of the amount due.

AriZOna'S Timber Land.

The extent of the timber belt o this territory is very little knowr outside of our own people. Many people imagine Arizona a region o treeless plains, bare and barren mountains but the fact is that few countries of the west have been so generously endowed by an abundant timber supply; and the magnifi- cent forests of pine, oak and cedar in the Mogollon, the Sierra Blanca, the San Francisco, the Santa Cata- lima, the Chiricahau, and other ranges, are surpassed by few states or territories west of the Missouri. Nearly all the lumber required in the construction of the Mexican Central railroad, came from the for ests of Northern Arizona and Los Angeles.
 The treeless plains of Southern California, as well as the valley of the Rio Grande down 10 Fl Paso, receive the larger portion of their lumber supply from the mills in the San Francisco mountains.
 From reliable data at hand, it is estimated that not less than 15,000 square miles of the entire area of Arizona is covered with a heavy growth of timber. This gives near ly 10,000,000 acres of woodland. This great timber belt may be said 10 extend in q northeast and south west direction from the Beth paral- Tel to the line of Sonora, following in its course the principal noun tain ranges. It Is not continuous, the timber being found on the sum- mits and sides of the highest ele- vaiions. Tie largest and most compact body of timbers in the ter ritory iS in the Mogollon forests.
 It begins at San Francisco Peak. and extends in southwesterly di- rection almost to the 33d parallel. lis extreme length is 200 miles, and it's average width about 50, making 10000 square miles, or 6,400,000 acres. Here is a body of magnifi- cent pine equal in extent to the combined area of New Jersey and Delaware; larger than Massaehu- se!ts, and double the extent ol Connecticut.-Ex.

 Ranch property is beginning to move with old-time vigor. One of the biggest sales recorded for some time was made to-day, 23d inst, W. D. Currler sold his fine ranch of 2,700 acres near Lookout, to Frank o. Harrison for $40,000 in cash. Mr. Harrison recently sold his ranch in that vicinity for ESQ., GOO. MT. Currier has 15,000 sheep which are not included in the sale. All the other stock and implements go with the ranch. Mr. Currier was in the city to-day and the deal was closed and the transfer made. He will close out his sheep in short time.-Laramie Boomerang.
 w. H. McKittrick has purchased from George Brisk, all his cattle, horses, ranch, and in fact every thing but his personal effects. Terms private. Mr. McKittrick is also negotiating for the or outfit, with good chances of securing 1t. He evidently has faith in the business. -Since our last issue G. F. Black has purchased 2,40O head of feed CTS; 1,200 from w. H. McKittrick and 200 from parties on the San Pedro. About 1000 head will be loaded to-day and the balance dur ing the coming week. He will also ship about 800 head purchased from Maish & Driscoli on the 9th. inst, from Tucson.--Willcox Stock man.

About one hundred and fifty men, women and children arrived last week bound for Topolobampo, Mex. They were in charge of an agent and very well guarded in or der that arguments against the col ony might not be made to the emi grants. The people of Nogales should use no more efforts to dis suade these people from their pur- pose, neither should they give an escaped colonist pecuniary aid OH his return, as the icture he will draw of his suffering may have mere effect in his locality than all the arguments offered here before they had tried it. A man who has no more regard for the comfort of his wife and little one than to jump headlong into such a scheme, even though the arguments against il were false, should not be encour- aged to stay in Nogales or Tn any other community,-Nogales Rec ord.

There is a determination on the business men and property owners of Tombstone to take hold of the pumping proposition and organize a company to drain the mines of this camp. The matter will take shape early next month, and the most pleasing feature about the matter is the eagerness with which every one who has been spoken to on the subject has proffered fnan- cial aid in furtherance of the enter prise,-Tombstone Prospector.

Coal has lately been sent from Philadelphia to Hamburg, Palermo and Cuba, Colon, Porto Rico, Mar unique and St. Thomas by steamers and shipped in sailing vessels to San Francisco, Laguayra and Mex ican ports. These shipments were not made in ballast, but on orders for commercial use. Coal is going from the Virginia coal fields te Spain and Brazil. From this time forth it is evident that the worlds supply will be drawn less and less from the deep mines of Great Brit ain and more and more from our own mines,-Philadelphia Record.
 Another great trunk line from the seaboard to the interior has now nearly reached completion. The extension of the Louisville & Nash vile road from Cumberland Gap, Ky, easterly to a connection with the Norfolk & Western at Norton, Va., is nearly finished, as trains have now commenced running te Big Stone Gap, only some ten miles from the point of connection and 2SO miles east of Louisville, while the Norfolk & Western has it's track completed to within three miles of the meeting place. In a very short time trains will run from Norfolk on the Chesapeake to Louisville, a dis tance of about 765 miles, thus con- meeting the whole vast Ohio and Mississippi valley with the Atlantic seaboard by nearly east and west line.-Railway Age.
 According to a telegram sent through Dalziel's Agency, a mag nifcent grotto has been discovered near Ajaccio. As described in Ma ture, it is entered with difficulty, owing to the smallness of the aper- ture; but upon his entrance the ex- plorer finds himself in vast and lofty hall, the sides of which are some twenty-five yards in height. From this there are several passages leading to an indefinite number of other chambers. A thorough in- vestigation of the grotto has not yet been made.

An Engineer Taught by an Insect

It has been said that the opera tions of the spider suggested the arts of spinning and weaving to man. That may be doubtful, but it Is quite certain that to hint from an insect was due the inven- ton of machine instrumental in accomplishing one of the most stupendous works of modern times --the excavation of the Thames tunnel. Mark Isambard Brunei, the great engineer.was standing one day, about three-Quarters of cen tury ago, in a ship yard, watching the movements ofan animal known as the Teredo Navales-in English, the naval wood-worm-when a bril- liant thought suddenly occurred to him. He saw that this creature bored it's way into the piece of wood upon which it was operating, by means of a very extraordinary me- chanical, apparatus. Looking at the animal attentively through a microscope he found that it was covered in front with a pair of val vular shells; that with it's foot as a purchase, it communicated a rotary motion and forward impulse to the valves which, acting upon the wood like a gimlet, penetrated it's substance; and that as the particles of wood were loosened, they passed through Assure in the foot and thence through the body of the borer to it's mouth, where they were expelled. 'Here," said Brunei, to himself, lis the sort of thing want Can 1 reproduce it in an artificial form?" He forthwith set to work, and the final result of his labors, after many failures, was the famous boring shield, with which | the Thames tunnel was excavated. This story was told by Brunei himself, and there is no reason to doubt it's truth. The keen observer can draw useful lessons from the humblest of the works of God.-New York Led Opr
