over the Ltne from romhstone.

Tombstone Prospector: Mr.. James T.
Dryden, who came in yesterday from the
new "diggins" below the line, is an old,
experienced miner, having mined and
prospected in Mexico and Arizona for
the past 10 years. He says there is no
doubt plenty of gold there, aud it can be
proftably worked.
The diggings are some 80 or 40 milee
below the line, and there are evidences
of their having been worked many years
ago, but the early workers had by no
means got into the richest dirt.
There are some 80 Mexicans there and
elk Americans, who are working the
ground In primitive way and are real
ising from $l5 to $40 day each. Since
work was begun, about three weeks ago,
$4,000 have been taken out.
Provisions are high priced and scarce,
and those contemplating the trip are
advised to outfit themselves accordingly.
Flour ia worth $16 per hundred; beans
are luxury and command 25 cents a
pound, and hard to get at that price. As
there is a mescal diHtillery about 20
miles distant there is sufficient uuan-
tisy OF that beverage to quench tho
thirst at 121s cents a drink, and the
owner ie coming money.
No killinga have thus far occurred and
outside OF few drunken rows among
the Mexiesns no trouble had yet arisen
among rival claimants.
The medium OF exchange is dust.
The Mexicans have chosen judge to
settle all disputes, but SO far his position
has been a sinecure.
Water is very scarce and has to be
hauled eight or nine miles for drinking
purposes.
Mr.. Dryden brought up several ounces
of coarse gold with him, and those who
saw it Immediately became affected with
the fever. Should more favorable re-
ports Of the new diggings be received
an exodus from Tombstone may be
looked for.
Mr.. Dryden left early this morning
for the diggings, and promises us re-
port in the near future.

Lively Times at Picaoho.

Yuma Times: supt. 0. G. Wilbur, Of
the Picacho Mining company, came
down Saturday on the Gils and went
into Californis Sunday morning. He
returned last night and will 70 back to
the mines again today.
From 20 to 40 men are now being
worked who ara engaged in setting the
boilers, grading and laying pipe. Three
OF the boilers are in place and the fourth
soon will be. The total length of the
pipe line will be about four miles and a
fall OF 100 feet can be used If necessary
with giants. Ground sluicingis is the plan
of working which will be tried first,
The company received notice yester-
day that their pumps were shipped from
the Worthington works at New York on
the 7th. They should be here the last
of the month.

ant crop.
1t has been found that crop of pea
nuts can be grown between the trees in
young fruit orchard, not only without
detriment to the trees but with some
good to them, because Of the nutriment
to the soil by the rotting vines. There
are several people in this locality who
derived a fairly good revenue from their
new and non bearing orchards last year,
because of the peanut trop there. The
best soil for growing the crop is dry,
sandy and with only enough irrigation
to get the plants into bloom, ANY
further than that seems to be damage
to them, causing them to put forth more
buds than they can mature.

The Leading Varieties ofLemons.

The Leading varieties OF Lemons
The interest in the growing of lemons
in Southern California is fast increasing,
and the following brief description Of
three leading varieties of this fruit in
this region may of service TO many Of
our readers:
Lisbon-Imported from Portugal.
Fruit is OF medium size, fine grain,
sweet rind, and very strong acids; very
few seeds. The fruit grows very uni
form on the tree, good keeper, and a
prolific bearer. Lemons can be picked
from the tree at any time of the year.
larger tree Gnan The other varieties de.
scribed under this head. Is quite thorny,
but the thorns decrease in size ae the
tree grows older. A very desirable
variety.
Villa Franca-Imported from Europe.
IL OF medium size, considered to be
the finest of all lemons grown. This
lemon has fruited in Los Angeles for
several years in the orchard OF ]. W.
Wolfskill. Fruit oblong, slightly point
cd at the blossom end, rind thin, with
out any trace of bitterness, even when
green, acid strong, juicy, nearly seed
less, branches spreading and sometimes
dropping, foliage sufficiently abundant
to prevent the fruit from scorching.
This variety has the name of withstand
ing lower temperature than other i'm
ported varieties.
Eureka-A native of California, orig.
mated by @. r. Workman at Los An
geles. from seed imported from Hamburg
in 1872, only one seed growing, from
which buds were put by him on orange
stock. introduced TO the public by T.
A. Carey OF Los Angeles. Fruit medium
size, sweet rind, good keeper. coneid-
cred by many to be the best; but the
drawback it has is the leaves are inclined
to curl, scarce foliage, fruit produced at
extremities of branches and liable to get
sunburnt; does better when grown on

r. L. Clarke says, In the Pomona
Arogress: am an advocate OF low
pruning, and have been for several
years. Previous to that time, before !
bad sufficient experience with orange
and lemon trees, was in favor OF high
pruning. Ny reasons for low pruning
may be stated briefly as follows, and l
think If people will take time to con-
sider the reasons, they will be converted
to the low-pruning idea. The right or
wrong pruning Of fine orchard is q
matter of 500 per acre in some years,
and there are numerous orchards that
have been injured for several years by
ignoramuses at work on the trees.
First-There is no danger of the trunk
and larger limbs becoming Bun-burned
and infected with borers, which will in
time destroy the usefulness of the tree
If not kill it. .
Second-The fruit is nearer the ground
and does not require so much labor as
W hen picking from the step-ladder-a
saving of so per cent in the cost OF har'
vesting the crop.
Third-The lower branches are the
Oldest and produce fruit first. II cut
away to raise the head of the tree it
does not come into profitable besring go
soon.
Fourth-The low-branched tree will
furnish the largest bearing surface in a
given time. II will always be the largest
tree at given age.
Fi'th--It is less at the mercy OF the
winds, and not so likely to have its
branches broken, and will never blow
over.
Sixth-When the outward inclined
branches OF the main limbs are trimmed
off, as they should be, the plow and cul-
tivator can work as close to the tree as
is possible under any other method OF
pruning.
Seventh-The low-branched system oi
pruning has the support of the largest
and most successful fruit growers of the
state, all of whom are converts from the
old method.
Eighth-High and improper pruning
has besn the cause of more loss and dis
appointment to fruit growers OF Califor-
mia than any other cause.

The world of letters has suffered a
great loss in the death of Francis Park
man, the historian. In laborlous re-
search he ranked with Bancroft and
Green; in grace and felicity OF express
sion he was almost the equal of Motley.
His literary style is a model for those
who would acquire excellence in the
use of their mother tongue. But it was
as an incessant toiler after truth that
he will serve as an example for all time
to historical writer's. Never content
with mere statement or half facts, he
pushed personal research to the utmost
verge. He considered neither time nor
expense nor personal safety in carrying
out his plans. He was a great historian.

THE attempt to extend the free mai
delivery system to towns and villages
has resulted in confessed failure. II
was tried In torty-six towns and villages
ranging in population from eight hun
dred to four thousand inhabitants. Al
first the change was welcomed by the
people but tho habit OF going to the
p%cstofice appears to have been too
deeply rooted and the people would not
give it up. In small towns life would
be dreary indeed without some central
rallying point. The country post office
is a social club house, a clearing house
for gossip, a great popular rendezvous.
The decay Of this useful institution be-
aus everybody has his letters carried
to his door would be too bad. The rural
postofice is n Of the bulwarks OF our
liberties.
