More Freeboard for British war
ships.

II IL said that the British admiralty
authorities have decided that vessels
Of low freeboard, including the "ad-
miral" class, shall not be employed in
future in the channel fleet, and It is
further reported that some Of the new
ships soon to be laid down will have a
higher free-bOnrd and be much more
graceful in their lines than their imme-
date predecessors. There is, moreover,
n rumor which appears TO have some
foundation in fact, that some Of the
cruisers now in course Of construction
at tSheerness will be fitted with masts
ard sails This is said TO be the result
of certain recommendations made re-
Gently by admirals serving on the Aus
tralian and Pacific stations.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infamed condition of the mucous lin ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deaf ness Is the result, and unless the in fiammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamcd condition of the mucous surfacee.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir culars, free.

LIKE 4 THIEF IN THE NIGHT Consumption comes. A slight cold, with your system in the scrofulous condition that's caused by impure blood, is enough to fasten 1t upon you. That is the time when neglect and delay are full of danger.
 Consumption is Lung Scrofula. You can prevent it, and you can cure it, if you haven't waited too long, with pr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery. That is the most potent blood cleanser, strength re- storer, and fesh-builder that's known to medical science. For every dis ease that has to be reached through the blood, like Consumption, for Scrofula in all its forms, Weak Lungs, Bronchitis, Asthma, and all severe, lingering Coughs, it is the only guaranteed remedy. If it doesn't benefit or cure, you have your money back.

ALL of the counties, except Yuma, along the line of both great railroads, crossing Arizona, have given Dr. Goodfellow, the efficient Territorial physician authority, in case of the appearance of Cholera at any point within their limits, to use such meas ures as he may deem necessary, to check it, and to hold it in control. This is right, should a case appear, action must be taken at once. A delay of few hours, might be the cause of many deaths. The strictest quarantine will be enforced at No gales, on the boundary line between Arizona and New Mexico, at Benson, Tucson and east of Yuma, on the Southern Pacific railroad. On the A. & P. it will be no less strict. Dr. Grammar, surgeon for that road, has been put in charge of quarantine matters on that line Dr. B. is one of the ablest physicians in the Terri tory and will see that nothing is left undone to prevent the scourge from spreading In case it makes its ap- pearance. Dr. Goodfeflow is now placed, where he can and will use every means within his reach to pre- vent it's entering the Territory. He is in hearty and active cooperation with the State Board of Health of California, which will render him all the assistance possible. The Dr. does not expect that the Cholera will reach Arizona, but if it does, he is bound to be ready to kill it out at once. The Boards of Supervisors deserve credit for their prompt action.

us that the body of a dead man was found last week by the rail road section men near Tacna. An empty bottle that had contain ed water was found by his side, but not thing by which he could be identified, or to tell from whence he came or where he was going. To all appearances he died of thirst. He also tells us that several others have been found un- der similar circumstances, upon which no inquests have been held. There is not Justice of the Peace from Yuma to Gila Bend, a dis tance of 123 miles, It seems that the different Boards of Supervisors should appoint such officers, wherever they may be needed.

wide, that wants to see the case ap- pealed We regret to find the Gazette against the people in this case, and on the side of those, who would ruin every interest and prospect of this whole region, for years in or der to carry their point, and become the monopolists of the day, in bring ing ruin and distress upon those who do not deserve them.
 From the outset, the Gazette has shown spirit in regard to this mat ter which is uncalled for, and its iR- situations, that because our people do not wish the Algodones case appealed to the U. s. Supreme Court, they are "winking at fraud" or of pulling wool over the eyes of the Supreme Court" will not be received in Yuma with the best of grace.

WAY OFF AGAIN.

In the Phoenix Gazette of the l lth inst. there is an article on the Al godones land grant, the ear marks oi which show, that 1t was written In Yuma, which is as far from the truth as the general run of falsehoods, writ ten by those, who wish to have the case appealed. First of all, neither Hooper, Hinton, Redondo nor Con- treras ever had thing to do with the AIgodones grant. They were in terested in an entirely different pro feet. The other statements made by the writer, are about as far from the truth. His intended slur at the peo pIe's mass meeting, held in Yuma, and the mud he attempts to throw at At torney General Heney, are worthy Of their author. He spends his force on
 the "real settlers" It might as well be understood, once and for all, tha t there was not "real settler" upon the Algodones grant when the lands which compose it were withdrawn from market, and only three settlers upon it when the present claimants took hold of it. These three not only do not favor the appeal, but are op- posed to it. The company, as it agreed, has given them the land to which they had claim. Every actual settler on the grant is more than satisfied to have the decision of the Land Court stand. It is only the one or two squatters, who did not even squat on the land they claim, who never lived a day or slept night, who could not file a location, who with eyes wide open took their chances on the land, the ownership of which was well vested in other own CTS, as decided by the United States Land Court of Private Claims, wEo desire to see the case appealed.

UNFRIENDLY TO YUMA.

It is only a short time since we were compelled to call the attention of the Phoenix Gazette to some of its mud throwing. In an editorial in it's issue of the llth, misled no doubt by its Yuma informant, it stoops again, to assist in doing the people of Yuma and Yuma county a great injustice, in an editorial on the Algodones grant case. The people of Yuma, to a man, not excepting more than two or three, so far as can be found, are perfectly satisfied with the decision already given by the United States Land Court, and do not care to try the case again after it has been care fully investigated and thoroughly tried by five of the most impartial, capable, intelligent, and able jurists, that ever sat upon the bench, before whom all of the evidence on either side of the case, was brought and most thoroughly examined, and de. cision rendered accordingly. The slur cast upon the Land Court, is ar insult to that body.
 Not another land grant case 1T Arizona, will be affected by the de- cision in this case, as there IS not an other grant in the territory based up on the same conditions. The argu- ment of the Gazette, that an appeal which will set this section of thu country back for ten years, will no ipjure it, but rather help it, IS about like its other reasoning, false in 1t conclusions. Our whole people ar satisfied with the decision of tn Land Court. Not a business man Il Yuma or the county, not farmer stcckman, settler, old or new, not
 man of influence, or who desires to SC Yuma prosper can be found, far an

About twice every summer. there II a sudden spasm, which some over heated victim has in regard to putting up an ice manufacturing plant II Yuma. When 1t is understood that such a plant as the town should have, with cold storage capacity accompany ing it. will cost from $l2,00O to $l5 900 besides the ground to put It on, the subject grows before the vic tins eyes, not to speak of the fact, that the moment ice is manufactured in Yuma, and put on the market at 7from ] to cent per pound, 1t is more than probable that the Union Ice Company will come in and re- duce the price of their ice from two ,cents, its present price, to 1 or of a cent per pound, when nine-tenths ot the people of Yuma, would patronize the cid ice company instead of the rew, until they had compelled the new to shut down. See Tucson and other towns as an example. Upon dilligent inquiry we find that the putting in of an ice plant in Yuma, in the immediate future. is only more talk. We had hoped not.

Pine Bark as q Diet.

-
 One article of subsistence some times employed by the Indians is only resorted to when they are driven to great straits by hunger. Around many of the watering-places in the pine forests of Oregon and California the trees of Pinats ponderOsG may be seen stripped of their bark for space of three or four feet near the base Of the trunk. This has been accom-. plished by cutting with hatchet a line around the tree as high as one could conveniently reach, and an. other lower down, so that the bark, severed above and below, could be re- moved in strips. At certain seasons of the year 8 mucilaginous film sep arates the bark from the wood of the trunk. Part of this film adheres to each surface, and may be scraped off. The resulting mixture of mucilage cells and half-formed wood is nutri- tions and not unpalatable, so that, as last resort, it may be used as de- fense against starvation. The fre- quency with which signs of. it's having been resorted to are met with is 8 striking indication of the uncertain ties and Irregularities of the supply department among avages.-Popular Science Monthly
