DR.. B. W. Richardson, the noted phv.
sican, says that he was once enabled to
preach an effectual temperance lecture by
means of scientific experiment. An
acquaintance was singing the praises of
wine, and declared that he could not get
through the day without it.
"Will you be good enough to feel my
pulse, as l stand herer asked Doctor
Richardson.
The man did so.
Count it carefully. What does it sayr'
'Seventy-four. ="
The physician then went and laid down
on sofa, and asked the gentleman to count
his pulse again.
1T has gone down to sixty-four," he said.
in astonishment. "WhSt an extraordinary
thingr
when you lie down at night" said the
physician, that is the way nature takes to
give your heart rest. You may know moth.
ing about it, but the organ is resting to that
extent; and If you reckon the rate, it in
wolves good deal OF rest, because. in lying
down, the heart is doing ten strokes less a
minute.
Multiply that by sixty, and it is six hun
dred; multiply it by eight hours and, within
fraction, there is difference of five thou
sand strokes; and as the heart is throwing
six ounces of blood at every stroke, it
makes difference of thirty thousand ounces
of life during the night. When lie down
at night without any alcohol, that is the
rest my heart gets.
but when take wine or grog, do not
allow that rest, for the influence of alcohol
is to increase the number of strokes Instead
of getting repose, the man who uses alcohol
put on something like fifteen thousand extra
strokes, and he rises quite unfit for the next
days work, until he has taken a little more
of that ,ruddy bumper which hs calls the
soul of man below.'O

LIQUID MANURE FOR PIONEERING PLANTS.
Flowers will be produced more freely
Z the plants are regularly watered with
Iome liquid manure. This may be done
afely as follows: Some good manure
mixed with poultry droppings, or some
artificial fertilizer (nitrate OF soda is the
Oest), is put in barrel and stepped in
water. The barrel should be kept full,
md not more than two pounds of the
fertilizer or half bushel of the manure
Ihould go to a barrel of water. A pint
ot this liquid is poured on the soil
around the plant every evening during
The season. If abe weather is dry the
proportion of water should be doubled
and a quart of the diluted liquid given.

'PRoTEcrIoN0 AGAINST THE Laws.

The liquor dealers of Chicago have a pro-
tective association. In a recent report made
by the Secretary the association Is congrat-
ulated on the fact that it has so successfully
defended its members against prosecution
for violation OF the laws, that only one in
sixteen has been molestei by the Citizens
League, while among the outside dealers one
in every eight has been prosecuted. This in
the last year. The Secretary boasts that
this fact indicates that the agents OF the
Citizens League do not relish the idea of at

''It is the strongest recommendation to
those engaged in the trade who have not as

Before the Prohibition Commission In
Halifax the other day the governor of Rock
head prison said that in his twelve years ex-
perience he never knew a case Of vagrancy,
disorderly conduct or assault that was
caused otherwise than by liquor, in fact
liquor was the cause of about every prisoner
being sent to prison. There would be no
trouble if not for drink-no crime no poor
asylums, no prisons or any such institu-
tions. He thoug ht prohibition desirable,
and that it could be carried out in Nova

could not be carri ed out in Halifax was be.

who have made the greatest mark
on the worlds history have always

popular belief that Napoleon took
only four or five hours rest, but to

of the desire of bis admirers to show

matter of fact, it was impossible to
tell exactly how long he slumbered,

Generals in our own civil war, he

The Harqua IHala Mines
EDITOR ARIZONA SENTINEL:

EDITOR ARIZONA SENTINEL:
 The march of progress is steadily going on in this vicinity. Hubbard and Bowers are running steadily on Bonanza ore. Their twenty stamp mill is running night and day, and at the end of each month the usual clean ,up of from S40,00O to $80,0O0 is made. Excavations are being made for an additional twenty stamps. From present appearance the ore supply is practically inexhaustible.
 Messrs. Baker and Wilson of the Yum Yum mine are in camp on their return from a summers vacation at Santa Monica.
 Mir. Hamilton is in town from the Yum Yum for supplies. He reports the vein as being as large as at any time since its discovery. The ore averages $500 in free gold.
 Thos. Greenhaw & Go. have a force of men at work preparing for the building of the proposed submarine dam for irrigation purposes.
 Bob" Upton of Phoenix is visit ing us, as is also John Collins and MT. Schultz of Pinal. Mir. Schultz is the discoverer of the great Mammoth mine of Pinal County. The above named gentlemen are prospecting in the Harcuvar mountains, eighteen miles from this place and report that they have found some exceedingly rich gold float ere and hope to find the lodges from which it came in the next thirty days. No doubt they will. Judging from the amount of float ore found in the Harqua Halas and from the large number of fine prospects now being developed, l have no hesitancy in saying that I believe this region will prove to be the rich est gold producing locality on the Pacific slope and that Yuma County will rival in its production of the precious metals, any other county in Arizona.
 A most important discovery oi auriferous iron ore has been made by O. B. Bloomer, about twenty miles Tn a north westerly direction from this town, in a spur or small range of the Harcuvar mountains, known as the Haquapec range. It IS one vast mountain of hematite iron. and crops out to an average height of about fifteen feet above its immediate sur roundings for distance of about three miles and is, at least, one hundred feet wide.

THE COMING sCOURGE.

Onward to the westward sweeps the cholera. It has carried of 10000 in Persia, and more than 100000 in Russia. It has already entered England, France, Germany and Scotland. A vessel has reach ed New York on which 9 died of 1t on the passage. No doubt but that soon it will show itself on American soil. Already has the proposition been made to postpone the opening of the Columbian Ex- position at Chicago for one year on account of its coming. If the rage of the cholera does not ruin the great show it will cripple it beyond recovery. What is to be done. No more or less than to clean up and keep clean. Clean up and burn the rubbish around every house, in every street, in all the back ways and alleys. The Board of Super visors and the Common Council . should take this matter in hand at once. A board of health should be appointed and its powers should be iron clad. It should see that every hole and spot in and around Yuma is well cleaned, refuse and rubbish burned, the sink holes, cesspools, ywater-closets, pig-pens, calf, COW and horse stables and corrals are all cleaned and disinfected and that old or unoccupied rooms are fumigated. The dread disease has has made it's appearance in Ha- yana, at least so it is reported. From there it may reach New Or leans any day, and from there it is an easy matter to transfer it to Yuma in and through the class of immigrants that are daily being carried through to California.

 runs northeast and southwest and stands at an angle of about 80 degrees Huge boulders of iron ore represent ing many thousand tons of iron are strewn promiscously around in the immediate vicinity of this mammoth body of ore. The formation is lime stone and slate. The two mountain ranges surrounding the Haquapec range are of entirely different charac, ter, of different heights, breadths, shapes, geological age and structure. The Harcuvar range is wide belt of rounded summits, high knobs, and irregular valleys with numerous ravines, while the Slate or River range is sharp narrow ridge, every where of about the same elevation, and broken at long intervals by trans verse cuts or water gaps. The rocks of the Harcuvar mountains are much older than those of the Slate range, and dip northward underneath the rocks of the Slate range, whereas the rocks of the valley to the Slate range are younger than those of the Haqua- pee and Harcuvar ranges and overlie them in regular geological order.
 The limestone is what is known in geology as Matinal or Magnetism limestone of the Lower Silurian, while the states are scalent shales. Samples of the red hematite yields by analysis as follows:

 By the above it will be seen that it is superior grade of iron ore, easy of access, water the year round three miles distant from the vein, and bounteous supply of ironwood and mesquit for charcoal of a superior quality. With an abundance of good ore, an almost endless supply, an abundance of Aux on the ground, plenty of fuel and water, cheap trans portation, skilled and unskilled labor m abundance, one of the finest climates on earth, no snows, frosts or blizzards, work can be prosecuted at all seasons of the year. With all these advantages in it's favor I look upon it as one of the best opportunities ever presented for a wealthy syndi- cate to take hold of and supply the markets of the world with a superior grade of iron and steel. Large beds of metallic and black oxides of man. ganese exist in the vicinity of which 1 will write in my next. I forgot to mention the fact that the iron ore above referred to carries $4 per ton gold and that the line of the North and South Railroad, as now laid out, will run within twenty miles of this body of ore.
 In my next will send you a de- scription and analysis of large body of Umber recently discovered but a short distance from the vein of iron ore and will write short treatise on an immense deposit of an excellent quality of Gypsum, but a few miles from here. Respectfully,

For great many years doctors pronounced it local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced in incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
