F. B. LOGAN, travelling correspon- dent for the Citizen, writing from Bowie, says: The cattle kings, lit tie and big, with their yaqueros, are now busy at their roundup in this valley, and reliable estimate places the losses since last years round up at about 25 per cent, which will be more than covered by the in crease. The grass is still short and more rain Is wanted to maintain the present growth through .he summer.

Last Sunday the Yuma Indians living on the Gila bottom about mile east of town cremated ore of their number with the weird la- mentations customary among these people on such occasions. The de- ceased was known as Jose Escalan- ta and was of about 30 years of age, A few whites and some visiting h. dians of another tribe witnessed the ceremony. This crude style of ere nation cannot be classed as bar barism but rather as a relic of the sunworshipers. The funeral pyres of ancient kings, burning the costly myrrh and the priceless sandal wood oil is one and the same with the blazing altar of mesquite wood whose curling, red breath carri ed the soul of Jose Escalanta to the skies.-Yuma Times.

To THE average person the in crease of a few cents in the price ot a ton coal may not mean much, says the Baltimore American, but to any one who knows coal statis- tics it means a great deal. The to- tai annual output of anthracite is between 4O,OO0,O0O and 50,000,000 tons; so that an increase of only ten cents a ton gives an additional profit of more than $4,000,000. The recent advance will put nearly eight million dollars extra into the pock- cts of mine owners and railroads.

Probably the oldest person on earth is to be found in the City of Mexico. Jesus Campeche lives in hut with his great great grandson, whose is full grown man, Campo che came originally from Spain, where he says he was born in 1737, which would make him now 154 years old. He has the appearance of being about 90 years old, and is fairly active for an old man. He shows papers to bear out his asser- tions as to his age, and the man with whom he is living says there is no doubt as to the relationship he bears to the old man. Campeche says he has never known a days sickness in his life. The papers which he carries to prove his asser- tione are copies of a church register in Valladolid, Spain, showing his date of birth and that of his bap- tism. The priest of the church which he attends is an old man of S6, and says that he was an acolyte in the church when he was a boy, and Campeche was an old man at the time.-Miner.

Colonel c. P. Sykes and ". J. Broadwell, of New York, were visit ors to Nogales this week. Mir. Broadwell is an agent for an East ern banking firm, and is investiga- ting the prospects for business for a railroad from Calabasas through Tucson to Globe. MT. Broadwell was we'll pleased with the outlo ok for a road from Tucson to Globe, his investigation showing that the income of that part of the road from freight alone, at the present stage of business, would be at least $600,- 900 a year, which would allow a a fair profit on the investment. But he was not so we'll pleased with the outlook for that portion of the road from Calabssas to Tucson, although when here he had not made up his mind as to the nature of the report he would make, intending to make another trip over the line. Colonel Sykes has been indefatigable in his efforts to interest capital in this un- dertaking, and our citizens wis h him success in the present instance. -Nogales Herald.

She was Robbed.

Mrs Eliza Pawling, a lady ell route to spend the summer at Mill Valley, California, at the depot the other day clalmed to have been rob bed of $1S0 in money on the cars at small station above the city. She sta,ed that she left her seat Tn the Pullman coach, leaving her pocket book containing the money in a handbag, during the stop ot the train, and when she returned to her seat she discovered that the money had been taken from the pocket book. She reported to the train and Pullman conductors, and the porters and coach were thor oughly searched, but without avail. The news butcher" was called up to be searched, but he informed the lady that ifthe money was not found in his possession, he would have her prosecuted. She did not press the searching, but informed the train conductor what the "news butcher" had said, and strange to say, he sustained the words of the latter. The lady continued her jour- ney to California. and it is dollars to doughnuts that the "news butch CT" got the money.-Alb. Citizen.

Mans Rest Fri EN- /.

A mans best friend is wife OF
good sense and good heart. whom he
loves and who loves him. In woman
there is at once subtle delicacy OF
tact and plain soundness OF judg-
ment which are rarely combined to an
equal degree in man. A woman. il she
is really your friend. will have sem
sitive regard for your character
honor repute. She will seldom coun-
sci you to do shabby thing. for a
woman always desires to be proud OF
YOU. At the same time her constitu-
tional timidity makes her more eau
tious than your male friends. She
therefore seldom counsels you to do
an imprudent thing. Rely. then. on
her wisdom and faithfulness. and scorn
the thought of proving unfaithful to
the tenderness which. should occasion
demand, would impel her willingly to
die for you. as when the brutal En-
