Smallest of Paintings.

Probably the smallest painting ever
made was the work OF the wife of a
Flemish artist. 1t depicted mill with
the sails bent, the miller mounting the
stairs with sack of grain on his back.
Upon the terrace where the mill stood
was cart and horse, and on the road
leading to it several peasants were shown.
The picture was beautifully finished, and
every object was very distinct, yet it
was so amazingly small that its surface,
so the story goes, could be covered with
grain Of corn. New York Dispatch

Tke Ancient Reayfs Claim.

The San Diego Sun says that there is a family, brothers and sis ters, living in that county that claims to be the entire fifth gener- ation in descent from Don Miguel Peralta, Spanish Knight of the Golden Fleece and Baron of Colo rado in the time of Emperor Fer dinand of Spain. They therefore lay claim to the 4,75O,O0O acres of the Peralta tract in the Salt river valley, A. T., for which but one heir has heretofore appeared, and who is now the wife of John A. Reavis, a former St. Louis news paper man.
 The San Diego county family is named Felix. They are Jordan, Jesus, Gertrude, Maria, Antonio and Luis Felix. J. B. Mannix of
  this city, their attorney, has se- cured the family tree and much other documentary evidence to sustain the claim. The case will be given a first hearing at Denver, October 18th, before the new United States Land Court. In the event the tract is restored to the Don's heirs the United States Government will have to pay them $l 25 an acre for all lands now occupied by settlers. The tract includes the city of Phoenix and the famous Casa Grande.
