The Sykes brothers of Flagstaff, never having attempted the passage of the Grand Canyon in boat. must have received their potoriety from newspapers alone. About a year ago they advertised themselves pretty extensively as intending to circumnavigate the world in a small boat which they built at Flagstaff and shipped on fiat car to Needles. where it was launched in the Colo rado river. They made the voyage down the river to Yuma, where they anchored for several days. On re- suming their trip they succeeded in getting few miles down the river, but failed to reach the ocean, when their boat was destroyed by fire. The only notoriety the boys have gained was through this incident, some people being uncharitable enough to hint that their boat was not burned accidentally.

Admission Day Anniversary.

The Native Sons of the Golden
 West demonstrated last night that they were worthy otfsprings of the men and women who blazed the way for civilization on the Pacific coast. Neither the sires nor the sons do anything by halves. The complimentary party given last night by the Native Sons, now resi- dent of Prescott, in observance of | he 42d anniversary of the admission of California, was one of the most delightful parties ever given in Prescott. The hall of the opera house was beautifully decorated with flags, banners, and emblems ol the order. One immense flag on the south wall of the hall reached nearly the entire length of the build ing, and was surmounted by an im- mense bear, an emblem of the order At about midnight. refreshments, consisting of coffee, ice cream and cake, were served, and dancing was kept up until about 3 o'clock A. N. The Native Sons deserve great credit kpl lltt SNCNtSctul III NHlCu the whole affair was managed. and their guests will hold them in grate- fut remembrance for the pleasure af- forded them for the evening.
 Gen. A. NJ. Winn, lately deceased. and founder of the order was a pioneer of '49. He was a veteran of the Mexican war, and went to Cali fornis. Gen Winn organized the Native Sons in 1876, and from a dozen charter names, the society has grown 10 number over 25,0O0 men. When it is taken into consideration that qualified mem bership to the order must date back to birth in 'I9 and none under Is years of age are admissible, to- gether with the additional facts that the white element in early days in California did not predomi- as now, it speaks handsomely, to say the least, for the loyalty displayed in the organization.
 Members of the order here feel specially grateful to California Parlor No. and its genial secretary, Frank B. Ryan, for their character istic feeling toward the cause of the Native Sons, and the generous aid each has extended them in Prescott, by contributing emblems and other property to make the day, even as far away as Arizona, of the same fer vent observance as others "inside of the lines" are ever accustomed to following.
 Among the many beautiful and appropriate notices sent from Cali fornia was the following from Frank B. Ryan, secretary of California Parlor No, of San Francisco:
 ''Let me review the scene, and summon from the shadowy past, the forms that once have been familiar"
 This was the first observance in this territory of admission day by the Native Sons, but 1t was certainly a very successful and happy one.
 The following is list of Native Sons residing in Prescott: B. NJ. Goldwater, H. H. Helm, Orick Jack son, G. A. Swan, Horace Merrill, Geo. s. Porter, Charles White, Ed. Horne, !. D. Helm, Ralph Dillon, Henry Goldwater, F. E. Emmal, J. $. Gales, Geo. Merritt and Doane Merrill.

Handling Special Delivery Letter..

A ten cent special delivery stamp on letter is supposed to keep it in constant motion from the time the letter is deposited in the main or branch postoffice until it is delivered to the addressee. There is liable to be a little delay in the starting of a letter when it is deposited in a letter box instead of a postoffice, but every thing must make way for special de livery letters after they once get into the vicinity of a mail bag. The clerk hustles them out with the first mail leaving the office and puts them on the outside of packages, or in a bundle by themselves, so that the next official can see them at once.
 If the special delivery stamp is put on a package of second, third or fourth class matter it has to be treat cd in a first class manner-that is, it goes into a pouch instead of sack, snd spushed through just as rapidly as letter bearing the same stamp. Kate Fields Washington.

Notes from the RradshnMs.

CAMP RELIABLE, September G. Editor JoURSAL-MrNER. The dry weather still continues in this sec tion. J. R. Liston, of the Old Re liable gold works, has by laying l,5oo feet of pipe secured water to keep running steadily,-this with plenty of ore in sight, makes it a prosperous little camp. The pro- cess is now free milling. but the con centrates are all saved, to be treated later by the cyanlde process, which, by numerous tests, has given good results. Alter 1t has been thor oughly tested on a large scale by others, this company will be prepar- ed to put in a plant for this tre at ment. In the meantime he will keep the mill running on free mill ing ore, of which they are opening up good bodies. MT. Liston has had many difficulties to overcome. Now that water has been secured in sufficient quantity, there is every prospect of success for this camp.
 The spring known as the Del Pasco Spring, on thevery summit of
 Del Pasco mountain, holds its own, and is favorite resort for the Phe- nix people, who are enjoying our mountain air and scenery, and gath ering specimens of various kinds.
 The Crowned King company are making all readiness to work the cyanide process on an extensive scale, and every one, mining men especially, wish them success. They seem very sanguine, and if water had not failed would have been fully satisfied by this time. The Gladia- tor is also being developed steadily and with lots of good ore in sight.
 The Crowned King, Gladiator (war Eagle), and Old Reliable groups are coming to the front. and the Bradshaws will be known throughout the mining world as one of the very best gold producing sec tions in Arizona. SAM JONES.

How Bus.,oe. Were Slaughtered


 The buffaloes travelled lon the run" and in great herds. It was always a helter skelter dash at full speed, heads down, long, shaggy hair tossing over gleaming eyes, and every one for himself. If an animal fell it was trampled to death by the thousands passing on. The annual migration was simply a wild dash for food The leaders were not al- ways so wild and stupid as the rest of the herd which they led in the awful scramble. They would scent danger, but that often availed little with the galloping. believing ones behind them.
 So the hunters used to frighten the leaders into taking a direct line for a ravine, where if the front ranks halted they would be pushed over by thousands. It was a reck- less, wholesale slaughter of noble animals, and accounts partly for the scarcity of the buffalo in later years -J. l.. Vance in Our Animal Friends.

Artists Who Were Once Sign Painters.
 There are not a few instances of sign painters abandoning their craft for a higher sphere in art. And of American artists especially number have begun in this humble line.
 Henry Smith Mount, brother of the more talented William Sidney Mount, though a sign painter, exc cuted some creditable pieces of still life and became an A. N. A. in 1882. w. $. Mount, first associated with his brother, showed capacity for a higher order of art. He was one of our earlier genre painters, devotiig himself mainly to depicting the humorous side of American rustic life. Francis A. Silva and Arthur Quartley, the marine painters, now dead, began their careers as sign painters. So did William McGrath. the clever genre painter. who of late has been painting subjects Ia Alma Tadema. Warrington Whittredge and William Louis Sonntag. botL now well known as landscape paint CTS, were painting signs together in Cincinnati a little more than forty years ago-New York Times.

His Only At,smp, at aumor.

~As 4ttenpt at auuor.
 When Colonel Bill" Hicklin was a much younger man than he is now he lived in Lttletown, on the Hanni- bal and St Joe road. Just outside of the town was high hill and a steep grade, up which trains had great difficulty in making their way. Bill" and some of his companions decided that they were to have some fun with the railroad company, and procuring lot of grease and soap smeared it on the rails on this grade. Soon a passenger train with c. H. Boardman, formerly of this city but now travelling passenger agent of the Burlington, in charge came laundering along. When the wheels struck that greased track they spun around like lightning. but the train would not budge an inch and even the sand would not hold it. The train was backed down the track and started up again, but it could not get over that grease, and after several unsuccessful attempts the train was sidetracked and gang of section men cleared of the rails.
 Of course this was all fun for Hick lin and his friends, and they would get of by themselves and laugh real loud about it; but the next day a young man came to the tden distrib- uting handbills on which was printed in cold black letters and signed by the superintendent of the road the announcement that the railroad company would pay $500 re- ward for the arrest and conviction of the persons who had greased the track. Right then and there lick lin ceased to be humorist. h early twilight he stole out of town and did not return for two years, by which time the incident was forgot ten.-Indianapolis News.
