sales stopped in 1873, those who then owned the herd fatted and killed most of them and the breed came very near to complete extinction.
 In 1873, on account of failing health from teaching, l went upon farm near Oneida, N. Y., and bought litter of very fine pigs called Cheshire, not be- cause they were Cheshires, but simply because they were good pigs. These pigs when fed beside pigs of other breeds proved'so superior that soon concluded l had something extra good, and set about establishing herd of Cheshires. l raised one SOW so fine that she was taken as model in establishing herd. Several persons in the vicinity had bought pigs from different breeders in Jefferson county, and was thus enabled to use Cheshires only. The sow men- tioned above was bred to the best Che shire boar that could be found, and the choicest animals were saved for breed ing.-Cor. Rural New Yorker.

 One fare for the round trip over all roads leading into Fl Paso has been made as the rate for those attending the southwest Silver Convention at Fl Paso on the 18th of the present month.

 The fye-stamp mill being put up on the Hillside mine will be the most com plete in the territory. All of the ma chinery is of the finest, and every late appliance for saving gold and silver is being put into it. The mill will be ready to begin crushing ore about New Year.
 r. A. Crague, who has just returi ed to Prescott from the Hillside mine, states that a miner named Mahoney vas instantly killed there last week.
 Ie had set off three shots but 1t seems hat two missed fire, and, thinking all had been discharged, started back in the tunnel, when, just before reaching the blasts, the other shots, which had been hanging fire, were discharged, with the result as stated.
 The Mining Review says: It is not pleasant to reflect how the prospector of the primitive type, the hardy, advent urous explorer of pioneer times, is hastening towards extinction. In Cali iornia this class of men has almost wholly disappeared from the scenes of their early labors, nor are they now at all numerous in the more distant and less settled mining regions. Like the Indian and the buffalo they are rapidly diminishing in numbers, and like them are destined to early disappear altogether. In the course of genera tion or two more they will figure only in history and fiction, being as much an extinct species as the dinotherium or the dodo.

MOBILES REPORT ON PENSIONS.


 In view of the charges that have been made by Democratic politicians and Democratic newspapers, Secretary Noble's annnal report as the head of the Interior Department has a striking pre- diction in respect to pensions, which deserves especial notice outside of the various features of government with which he has had to deal. Secretary Noble states that all the pension claims filed, or that can be filed, on which first payments can accrue, will have been passed upon and disposed of with in the the next three years, and that thereupon there will disappear from the estimates the item of first payments, now amounting to about $S0, ,000, ,O00 an nually. The manner in which the Sec retary reasons out this deduction is from the showing of statistics that while the benefits of the pension system have been widely extended, the average of first payments is decreasing from pre- vious years, and the average of annual pay "cHNe tO VhSh PVhsiOhSi iS o'oO NC creasing.
 The figures speak for themselves:
 There were 222, ,52l first payments of every description made during the last fiscal year, requiring $3S, ,552, ,274.3l, be- ing s69, 1892 less than was required for the Sl30,5 first payments made during the previous year. The average value of first payments made during the year was S239, ,3S, and the average value of first payments on claims allowed under the act of June 27. 1890, was $7l .2S. The average value of first payments for the preceding year was s4S5.7l.
 Thus there appears reduction in the average first payment for the year 1891, as compared with 1890, of S246.3S.
 The Secretary in noting these condi- tions gives the reason as follows:
 Under the old law the claims had been pending for years, while the proofs were being perfected or they were be. ing reached in due order, and as the first payments included all that should have been paid as pension from the date Of filling the claim or of discharge, as the facts warranted. this sum was necessarily large. But the claims under the new law have been disposed of rapid ly by the additional force recently allowed by Congress, and as the pension commences from the date of filing the claim subsequent to passage of the act of June 2, 1890 the, first payment on each has been small. This is connected also with the fact that many thousands of claimants, despairing of proving dis ability incurred in line of duty, and >only thus pensionable under the old law elected t. recieVe the benefits of the new general disability act and to take the lesser sums accruing from the dete of the last filing of the claim,
 Secretary Noble alsc asserts that with in the period named the gross annual payment will drop to $lS0,0 100000, "wi,h rapi and continuous decline ther after" There is no consolation for the Democrats in these figures and predictions. They have been charging that the pension expenditures were growing beyond all bounds, and that there was no limit to the money that would be required to meet them. The figures snow that the exact opposite is the truth.

THE CHESHIRE HOG.

Origin of the Most Popular Breed of
 Swine in New York.
 Of the various breeds of swine kept in the United States, the Poland China, Chester White, Duroc-Jersey and Che shire originated in this country. The Cheshire, while not so well known out side of New York as the other three breeds. is, believe, superior to them all. In the central part of the Empire State, the Cheshire and it's crosses (Cheshires in appearance) have, to large extent, dis placed all other breeds, and in this sec tion have become the common hog Attempts have time and again been made by enterprising farmers to intro duce some of the other popular breeds, but in every instance they have not been able for more than a year or two to make any headway against the Cheshire. A man who has once had good Cheshires is never quite satisfied with any other breed, and l have yet to meet the first man who has fed Cheshires who does not declare them to be "the best hogs ever had" The Cheshire was first bred in Jefferson county, N. Y., and for time was called the Jefferson county hog Specimens of the breed were first shown at the state fair in 1859 by A. c. Clark, of Belleville. The breed may be said to have had its beginning by crossing an imported large Yorkshire boar upon se- lected native sows.
 For some years previous to this cross ing a good deal of pains had been taken in the neighborhood of Belleville in selecting and improving this stock of hogs, and there were several farmers who had a local reputation for the ex- cellence of their swine. This cross of the large Yorkshire upon these some what improved sows gave such marked result that attention was called to them, selections were carefully made, the best white hogs being selected for breeding stock. When exhibited at the State fair they attracted so much attention that pigs from this stock were sent into vari- ous parts of the state, but specially into Oneida and Madison counties. In 1870 Clark and his partner, Daniel Green, .ex- hibited the stock at the western fairs, commencing with the Ohio State fair and ending with the St. Louis fair. At the latter their herd won the great pork packers prize of $500 This noted sus- cess created great demand for the pigs, till the panic of 1873 suddenly put stop to all sales. Meanwhile, Mir. Clark, the original breeder. had sold his interest in the stock and moved to the west. When
