/. Where is the Salt River valley =?
In the central part of Maricopa county,
in southern Arizona, comprising the
land lying on either side of Salt river,
between the mouth of the Verde river
Ga tributary and the confluence of the
Salt river with the ella river.
2. How largeis the Salt River val
leyP The valley proper is some fifty
miles in length and averages fifteen
miles in width, containing $50 square
miles, aggregating 100000 acres OF irri-
gable land, surrounded on all sides by
the foothills of adjacent mountain
ranges.
8. How does this section compare
with other parts OF the territory The
territory OF Arizona is of a generally
mountainous character very rich in
mines, timber, and live stock, while the
Salt River valley is devoted to sgricul-
ture, horticulture and live stock ex-
clusively.
A. What is the climateS The terri
tory being some $50 miles in length,
north and south, and the altitude of
the northern portion being from 5000
90 1000 feet, while that OF the Salt
River valley is but 1850 feet the ter
Iitory presents great variety OF eli
mate. The climate OF the Salt River
valley is semi-tropical, with little frost,
no snow, and moderate rain IN the
winter.
5. How low does the thermometer go
in winter? Very rarely below freezing
point, 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
6. What is the summer temperature
In July, August and September from 70

vicinity. He was at once taken to J.
I. Warehouses; and the officers sent
for.
After Mcclure was taken to the
Station House he stated to the officers
that there were about six escaped men
in his gang and that they were in the
mountains back of Honolulu. One of
them he declared was Bruette, who, he
affirmed, was armed with a gun and a
knife.
Captain Schlemmer says that the
police already had a clue to Bruett's
whereabouts and that he was expected
to show himself in the vicinity of the
bridge where Mcclure was captured
sometime tomorrow, when the officers
we're to be on the lookout for him. He
says he is sorry the man Mcclure was
taken, as it will probably put the rest
on their guard.
In view of this fact a posse of the
best officers will be detailed to search
for the lurking place of the gang this
afternoon in the hope of taking them
by surprise.

in Progress.

As mentioned in the STAR few days
ago the Fish market is now undergoing
general renovation under the direction
of Andrew Brown, Superintendent of
the Water Works. A new iron roof
has replaced the old shingle one on the
mauka half of the building, and the
foundation on the Waikiki end has
been raised and strengthened
A general cleaning up and white,
washing is now going on, which, when
finished, will greatly improve the APP
pearance and sanitary condition of the
place. The recommendation of the
Board of Health will be carried

porary state of repair which will suffice
until the appropriations are available
for completing the new market on the
esplanade.

at Stand-Still.
This morning at eleven o'clock eight
members of the Advisory Coun eli
called on Commissioner Blount. The
remaining six members were unable to
attend owing to the shortness of the
notice given and previous business en-
gagements. There were present Hons.

duced the Ccuucilmen to Commits
sioner Blount With a few appropriate
remarl, md stat, d they wished to meet
him person y and ay their respects.
Hon. w. c. Witd,r said that the
CounciImen and citiztlS generally re
cognized the almost constant calls that
were made upon his time, and while
many, very many, of the American
residents would like to call they felt it
would be encroaching too greatly upon
both his business and time to do so.
Mr.. McCandIess speaking of the
Annexation Club said there were a
large number of young Americans who
would like to call upon their dis.
tinguished countryman, but they also
felt their presence would only embar-
rass and hinder the onerous duties in
which he has engaged.
In reply Commissioner Blount
said: am very pleased to meet the
members of the Council present and
would like to have time to return all the
attentions l have received, but owing
to the many calls made upon my time
| find it is absolutely impossible for
me to meet people in the usual social
manner l arm glad, however, that l
have this opportunity to express my
self as to my position here.

The shortness of time at my disposal
has necessitated my meeting indi-
viduals as can arrange for them-in
other words l am obliged to husband
my time and condense my work.
