Of IntererSt to Cattlemen.

HoLBRooK, May 13, 1891.
 To whom it may concern; The late legislature passed a law requiring all cattle shipped or driven out of the Ter ritory to be inspected, and all cattle not on the bills of sale or for which the per- son in charge has no authority to han dle must be seized, and if possible re- turned to the owners range or sold for his benefit.
 The Live Stock Sanitary Commission has been charged with carrying out this law, and all cattle and stock men gener- ally are requested to aid in seeing that its provisions are fully carried out.
 MT. John V. Morrison ilas been ap- pointed Inspector for the St. Johns dis trict, and all persons shipping or driving cattle out of this county in thls district must notify him before loading or leav- ing, in order that he may properly in- spect them.
 Persons buying cattle should secure a bill of sale covering every animal they buy, giving age, brands, marks and sex, and owners in charge of their own stock and not known to the Inspector, must furnish him with satisfactory proof that he is the owner or authorized agent.
 The fees for this inspection are five cents for all numbers up to 100 head, and three cents for all over that, to be pald by the owner of the stock.
 Printed regulations and copies of the law, etc., will be issued soon and may be procured of MT. Morrison or myself.
 Stockmen are requested to send their brands and marks to the Secretary of the Commission at Phoenix, in order that he may notify owners of any cattle found in herds and remit payment for same where they have been sold by the In- spector.
 There is no charge for this and by placing the brand on the books of the Commission, stockmen can find out how many stray steers are being sold or worked out of the country.
 The attention oi cattle and stockmen generally is also called to the new law requiring all brands to be recorded, and making it penal offence to have brand on an animal and not record it.
 The St. Johns District will embrace all cattle driven out of the county into New Mexico from St. Johns, Springerville or points in that vicinity.

A Philosophical Family.

Ame lia has pimples. and sores in the head.
 From humors internal. her nose has grown red: She's boil on her neck that is big as a bell,
 But in other respects she is doing quite well. And pa has dyspepsia, malaria aud gout,
 His hands with salt rheum are all brOkeu out; He is prone to rhenmatics that make his legs
 swell,
 But in other respects he is doing quite we'll
 Mahas nj ght sweats and troublesome cough, That all of our doctors can't seem to drive off; She wakes every night and coughs quite a spell But in other respects she is doing quite we'll
 There is nothing like philosophy to help one bear the ills of life, but in the case of this family what is most needed is good supply of pr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It would cleanse Amelia's bad blood, cure pas ailments, and check mas cough. The Golden Medical Discovery" by its action on the liver, cleanses the system of impurities, It cures humors, ulcers, boils, scrofula, salt'rheum, envsipelas, and all kinds of sores and swellings.

only comes by fits and starts. His mal- ady is one which ordinary medicines too often fail to relieve, but there is ample evidence to prove that the efficient blood depurent, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, affords the rheumatic reliable means of relief. Check the malady in it's incipient stages, when the frst-pre- rnonitory twinges come on, with this agreeable medicine, and avoid years of torture. Whatever be the rationale of the active influence of the Bitters upon this malady, certain it is that no evi- denco relating to its effect is more direct and positive than that which relates to it's action in cases of rheumatism. Like all sterling remedies, however, it de- serves protracted. systematic trial, and should not be abandoned because at once remedial. It is equally effica- cious in dyspepsia, indigestion and kin dred diseases.

The herders of Don Pedro Montano's sheep, who winter sl them on the Gila, returned with them few days since for the purpose of shearing. While en route and on the head waters of Black river, one of the herders (Francisco Baca, ) came across tent, and on looking into it, saw a man lying on bed, dead. His shoes were alongside the bed, and the tent had the appearance of having been undisturbed. The herder was too bad ly frightened to make a close inspection of the premises, but thinks the man had been dead about two months. Says the body had the appearance of drying up. MT. Montana came into St. Johns on Tuesday and reported the case to Dis trict Attorney Bunch, who wrote Luther Martin, Esq, of Springerville, instruct. ing him to find the body, hold an in- quest and bury it.

We call attention to the articles of in- corporation of the St. Johns Co-opera- tive Mercantile and Manufacturing In stitution. This concern bids fair to be of great advantage to our town and the surrounding country. Those who have organized it are good business men, are enterprising and have the confidence of every one. We are not on the inside and do not know what branch of manu- featuring they propose to engage in, but think woollen mill of sufficient capac- ity to consume our local clip, would be a benefit to the people as well as mon- ey-making venture for it's projectors. It would make home market for our wool and would save the trouble and expense of hauling it from fifty to sev- enty-five miles to the railroad. We would be glad to see such an enterprise started in our midst. Think it good field for such work. Think about it, gentlemen.

Although ''alum is seldom found in a pure state, and only in the neighborhood of extinct volcanoes" says the authori- ties on the subject, yet here in Apache county, not far from St, Johns and with in six miles of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad, one of our Mexican citizens recently discovered an immense deposit of pure chrystalized alum. We have seen several large chunks of the stuff, and in the taste of it, could discern no difference between it and the alum of commerce. Send in your orders and Apache county will supply the markets of the United States with all the pure alum needed.

A Gobler Sits On a Melon.

Mr.. James Grier, who livesabout five
miles east of Dawson, has a turkey
gobbler that is curiosity. Mr.. Grier's
turkeys consisted of two hens and the
gobbler. The hens made nests about
seventy-five yards apart in Mr.. Grier's
melon patch, laid their nests full of eggs
and went to setting. The gobbler got
lonesome and concluded that the proper
thing for him to do was to set also. He
got an equal distance between the two
turkey hens, squatted over a genuine
watermelon and set six weeks before he
was discovered. Mr.. Grier thought his
gobb'er had been stolen, and was utterly
astonished when he found him in the
patch trying to hatch out young water
melons.-Enquirer-
