CusbioDs for Boys Rooms

Within the past few years cushions have
become an institution of comfort in our
homes, and no leom-not even harum,
scarum boy's-is now considered furnished
without a luxurious heap of them some
where. In the city and country alike they
have become necessity. In summer time
they are pileo in the corners of piazzas,
tucked into hamlnocks and heaped into
bright confusion Oh the seats of gay yachts,
in winter sofas and chairs end corners
orc full of them But no one seems to have
too many. Though the shops keep them,
the greater are made at home; rare is the
woman that mas not sofa pillow of some
sort under way. She knows for one thing
that they are exceedingly ornamental as
well as useful, and that thrown about a
room they add much to its attractiveness.

New designs for corners are being brought
out continually by ingenious women, and
all sorts of means and materials are turned
to account in tho manufacture of the pretty
things.
Some of the most unique and artistic
affairs that have come within my notice
of late have been made for the boys of
tho house, either for their rooms at home
or to take away to school.
They range from a fetching creation
made of narrow ribbons to dainty silken
affair that in It's soft beauty is its own
excuse for being.
A Ribbon Roll.
The first mentioned was really one of
the brightest, gayest things made in that
form of cushion known as a "slumber roll.
1t was developed under the dainty fingers
of a school girl, who made of it labor of

his interesting room ut college. She fash

THE verdict in the case of Yuma Charlie, tried for biting a finger of another Indian was a great sur prise to every one who heard the trial, or knew the facts in the case. Here was a drunken Indian, who while in that condition assaulted a peaceable Indian, threw him down and bit off his finger, and who at his trial offered no defense, and yet the jury acquitted him, even of the assault. It is one of the mys- terious, unknown, intricate things, that no one is able to solve, how jury of American citizens, SUD- posed to be intelligent, could listen to Judge Bakers plain and able charge in this case. and then &C., quit the culprit. Already the In dians are laughing at the verdict, and openly boast, that if any one of their number wishes to get drunk, fight and kick up a TOW, all he has to do is to cross over to Yuma, for their is no law, no fine, no punishment, for these little crimes, if committed by an Indian in Yuma.

WITH a good sewerage system. Yuma will rank higher than any town in the west, for health and cleanliness. As it is with live river, no sloughs nor swamps, and no stand ing water, her health rate is up to the highest standard. There is not a town on the coast, with her popula- tiou, that can show a record of health so free from malaria and levers of every description. Her warm, dry and even climate tells the story. As the town increases in size this record can be maintained by the inaugural ing of good sewer system, like that now contemplated, and which should be done.

The Globe Silver Belt says: Referring to the Yuma SENTINEL's statement in regard to Arizona's claim of ofSI7,000 against the Federal govern, ment, for board of Indian prisoners, the Star adds: It has also been found that by an act of Congress passed Jan uary 22d, 1867, the net proceeds of the internal revenue collected in the Territory for the three years l867-60- 69, were to be devoted to the erection of a Territorial penitentiary, the amount so appropriated not to exceed the sum of S40,000. Not one cent of this money has ever been received by the Territory. Every public building in tbe Territory devoted to the care of the criminal, the sick, and the insane has been maintained and erected with out aid to the extent os one dollar from the National government. There is every reason, therefore, that both the $l7,000 and the $4O,0O0 sh ould be ap- propristed.' .

 SIR:--
 Your committe appointed to ex- anime books of the Sheriff and Re- corder of the county of Yuma, beg leave to submit the following report:
 We find the books in the Recor- der's office, kept in a neat and busi- ness like manner. The officer in charge deserves credit for the con- dition of his office. We recommend that a book be provided, wherein an account of all moneys received by him as fees may be kept.
 We further earnestly recommend that a fire-proof vault be built, wherein can be kept, all books and papers belonging to the office. Many of the books and papers, property of the county are crowded out of the safe now used, and are exposed. The importance of thi S suggestion, for preserving the peo- pies records, will become apparent to any fair minded person.
 THE sHERIFF's OFFICE.
 We find the books in this office neatly kept, showing at a glance, receipts for licenses collected for each quarter, separately.
 We herewith submit a state ment of licenses collected: For the quarter ending
 March 31, 1893. .$1435 % For the quarter ending
 June 30, 1898. .... 1484 45 For the quarter ending
 Sept. 30, 1893 ..... 1862 %
 Total. ....... S4281 45 The above includes licenses for gambling $1478.O0, showing large gain of such collection, indica ting that the Sheriff is attending to that department.
 We find this office sadly in need of a safe, or some suitable place to keep books, papers, and other prop erty pertaining to the office. We respectfully suggest that if the Recorder be provided with a vault the safe now used by him be moved to this office.
 All of which is respectfully sub- mitted.
