 An idea of the bIg grain crop on the South Side may be gleaned from the fact that one firm, Wildman- Peters Goldman-Co., of Tempe, imported and sold five carloads of sacks since the threshing season began. These, with others known to have been sold, brings the expenditure for sacks alone to $l0,- 900.
 Among the great number who went to the Superstition camp from Tempe yesterday were Bob and Tom Goodwin, who have two claims they intend to de- velop and J. D.

 Frank Meador, of Phoenix, brought 250 head of brood mares from his ranch under the Highland canal near Mesa yesterday and turned them over to Louis Jaeger, of Yuma, who will take them to bls ranch for pasture. These horses are fine lot and being well graded will in the near future net their owner a handsome sum.
 Fritz Berkenksmp returned yester. day from Santa Fe, where he sold five carloads of cattle recently. He says there was @ heavy rain in the southern part of the territory on Tbursday and when the train passed Wilcox the streets of the town were three inches deep of running water.

PIMA GAMBLERS.
A Squaw's Layout on a Tempe
 Sidewalk
Attracts a Crowd of Indians who Become Financially Involved
 and Lose Much Silver.

While gambling is carried on to a greater or less extent in nearly every city and town in the west it is doubtful whether a game similar to the one Wit messed on the sidewalk yesterday in front of the ice depot on Mill avenue, has ever been duplicated. Soapy Smith, the street fakir, of Denver, who is known the world over, having gathered a street crowd nearly every day for the past fifteen years, was never surrounded by such ardent packers of their judgment on game of chance, as was Pima squaw who opened monte game and used the board sidewalk for layout. The wealth of the realm was squandered against the swarthy sirens game with recklessness that demonstrated the small value placed on the white metal which was played direct without the circumvolution of exchange known as chips. Dimes, quarters and dollars were laid down and either taken or paid with the promptness of pro fessional faro dealer. The players were seven dusky maidens, whose sacks of small change seemed inexhaustible. Occasionally buck would timidly lay down short bit, while a few festive Chinamen tried to take in the bank by stacking up the cart wheels as though they considered silver of no commercial value. The game won steadily and the iynx-eyed damsel closed the game with an eat-em-up-Jske deal that sstonished the crowd of Americans, who congre- gated to witness the unique sport.

A ManteI from Missouri.

Probably the largest single piece of furniture ever put in any of the state buildings is mantel from BroolSfeld, Mo, in the Missouri fair building. It was manufactured in Brookfield, is a richly, hand-carved affair, twelve feet high and nine feet wide, and weighs nearly ton. It is of antique oak, cut from the forest near Brookfeld, and was got up at cost of S1,00O, raised by popular subscription by the ladies of Brookfield. Charles Green, one of the Missouri commissioners, whose home is at Brookfeld, had to charter a flat car to ship the mantel, and had at least twenty men carrying it into the Missouri building.

Thought He Had Lost His Pension,

In small village in Maine there lives an old soldier who has for many years received pension from the gov ernment, which with his small earn ings by occasional joys, makes him comfortable. One day, while at work in the house of neighbor, he slipped at the top of a flight of stairs and fell to the bottom. The lady of the house heard the noise, and hurried to learn the cause. Why, Ambrose" she said,
 is that you? Did you fall down. stairs?" "Yes, marm, did" answered the old man, ''and for about couple of minutes I thought I'd lost my pen sion"

 Canals, bitches
 and Reservoirs.

| The above cut illustrates an AUTOMATIC | WATER GATE, to regulate and keep in subjection
 the rise of water in canal, due to an over-abund
 ant flow, to sudden rises in the canal owing to l severe rains or storms.
 It is particularly valuable to have such a Water
 Gate placed in lower bank of canal, at such points | along it's line Where there are Ravines Gullies, Arroyos, Foot Hills, Buttes, or Tableland as any
 rains or storms bring down at such points surplus of water that is very dangerous to the banks of
 canal. The Waste Gate, however, will prevent
 such damage, as it is
 SELF-ACTING AND PERFECT SAFETY VALVE
 Relieving the canal, at short intervals of it's plus water, thus preventing the washing away of
 banks, and causing great damage generally, not
 alone to canal, but property owners all along the line, who may suffer more less damages there after for the want of water owing to the damaged condition of canal and while such repairs are being made Not only is it valuable to relieve canal of its surplus water, to prevent damage and ex- pense, but by it's the first cost of canal con- structon will be materially lessened, as the banks need not be made so high or wide.
 The device is extremely simple, and compara- lively inexpensive. Its plan of operation is this:
 There is pipe fastened to an opening in the vertical gate, l. When the body of water rises to the level of the upper end of pipe, 2, water runs freely into the tank, g. which is immediately filled thus overbalancng the weight, 4, which is on the other end of lever, 5, thus forcing open the gate which suddenly relieves the canal of large sur plus of water When body of water recedes below certain level, no more water is admitted to the tank it therefore empties itself by small faucet opening, 6, at the bottom; this being done, the weight overbalances tank, and brings down the lever, which, being rigid to the swinging gate, closes it. This operation continues at short in tervals so long the body of water keeps rising over a certain level. The lever, gate, pipe and tank all rigid and hinge, pivot, on a hori- l zontal shaft. The gate, Hume or box can be made | any height, width, or length desired. The gate can be hinged between any bulkhead without box.
 The Water Gate is a Perfect Safety Valve, and is | to body of water what a safety valve is to steam They can be made any size, corresponding with body of water and size of canal It is secured by letters patent, and for sale only by

BALTIMORE, Nd, Nov. ia most
sensational suicide was committed in
the Northwestern section of the city
this morning. While North Eutaw

scene at the fourth story win

tracted the attention of the passers by.
Au entirely nude man was crouching on
the window sill preparlngto jump. A
moment later he plunged headlong to
the ground. The man was Senior Carlos
Diez Gomez De Cadiz, the Consul of the
Kingdom of Spain at Baltimore. The
body struck the earth with terrific force.
The skull was crushed and death vas
instantaneous. There is no doubt that
Diaz committed the deed while in fit
of insanity. DiaZ had been the Spanish
Consul at Baltimore for two years. He
was 46 years old. He came from a dis
tinguished Spanish family, and had
been In the consular service Of his ma
tive country twenty-five years. For
twenty years he was stationed at Tunis,

slowed upon him by the Spanish and

NJ Duty on Iron Ore.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-The iron
ore men have been defeated, and the
men who have combatted 90 valiantly
to keep this article off the free list were
today formally notified by members Of
the ways and means commit that it
had been finally decided by the Demo-
cratic members that iron ore would be
placed on the free list. This is the
most important development OF tie day,
as it leaves the the iron ore men of Ala
bama, Virginia a nd Michigan no alterna-
tive but to carry their fight on to the
floor OF the House. This they are now
threatening TO do, and il is more freely
stated than ever that the new tariff bill
containing this new provision will be
opposed in the House by the solid Dem-
ocratic delegation from Alaba ma aud in
the Senate by Senators Morgan and
Pugh. The Western Iron Ore Associa-
ton, through President Geo. 81. Ely, of
Cleveland, O., has made vigorous pro-
test to the committee. The committee
today concluded the wool schedule OF
the new tariff bill. The measure provides
for the admission, free of duty, all woods,
hair of the camel, goat, alpaca and other
like animals, and of wool and hair on
the SKIN, noils, top waste and other
wastes, and ags composed wholly or in
part of wool; also repsals what are
known as compensatory duties on WOOL
en- goods and reduces the advalorem du.
ties on such gools. 1t also repeals the
com pensatory duties upon carpets ofall
kinds, rugs and mats, and reduces the
advalorem duties thereon from 40 per
cent. advalorem to 80 per cent. advalo-
rem. 1t also reduces the duties upon Ger
tain qualities of waste, which
have been advanced beyond the
condition Of secured wool by
the use OF machinery or by, the ap-
plicatiop of labor, TO 25 per cent adva-
loren. Tile duty on shoddy mungo and
certain Other wastes ls put at rs per
cent. advalorem. Over one thousand
petitions, kilograms and memorials have
been rec lived by members of the CON-
mittee from tempeanc socisties
throughout The country asking that the
whiskey tax by raised. A telegram
from Iowa Falls, Ia., says: I'VE have
tried State prohibition, and find that We
canuot cope with the evil. Prohibition
don't always prohibit; but if the general
government places a heavy tax on the
product, it will tend to lessen the out
put of the cursed stuff" Many appeals
come from branches Of the Womans'
Christian Temperance Union, asking
the committee to FIX the tax on whiskey
at dollar and a half. Mean while, the
distillers are silent on the subject.
