water struck at the Depth OF 500 Feat
on the Colorado d assrt.

We learn from T. B. Wilkinson, agent
Iot the Southern Pacific railroad at this
place, says the Yuma "a. IT, Sentinel,
that success has at last crowned the eff
forts of the company to obtain artesian
water on the desert. On Tuesday last,
when the great well at Walkers station,
l06 miles west of Yuma. had reached a
d epth of 800 feet, bounfiful stream of
excellent water was struck, which in
.stantly rose four feet above the surface
and ran off down the desert as freely as
if it had always done 80. Such was the
flow of water that the company was
Obliged at once to protect its road bed
from being washed away. Passengers
passing by yesterday aud the day before
say that the stream filled a gcod-sized
Irrigation ditch. The water is clear,
cold and excellent for drinking and cook
ing purposes
Engineer w. B. Story, jr., and other
officials of the company consider this as
one of the most promising and valuable
discoveries of the company for years, as
it settles the question as to securing
artesian water irrigation and other pur-
poses on the great desert adjacent to In
dio and Salton. 1t also confirms the
opinion of gentleman who was in
Yuma two years ago, who had been con-
nected with the artesian we'll system Of
the English government in India for
thirteen years, and who said:
ST am confident that an abundant
supply of artesian water can be had al
almost any point in the Salton desert OF
in the section lying adjacent to Yuma,
and you will not have to bore 1000 feet
to get it. p
The Walters well is eight feet in dia-
meter, and the water rises from three to
four feet above the surface. The COM
rany will not prosecute the work on its
proposed wells in other sections. II il
proves that good water can be had in
other sections of the desert, Il will put

woMAN's WORKS AT THE FAIR.

Two of the most beautiful and uni-
versally admired pictured on exhibi-
ton, among the countless numbers Of
art works, at the Worlds Fair are
those of Mrs. j. f. Jenkins, formerly
resident of Dallas, Tex, now Of Los
Angeles Cal. These wonderful Gre
ations of q woman's skill and genius
are hand made tapestry in silk and
chenille. One of the pictures, it is
claimed, should be accredited to Texas,
as it was completed and first exhibited
at the Texas State Fair and Dallas
Exposition, during Mrs. jenkins res
idence in Dallas, and the other, the
work Of fourteen years, was designed
and partly completed before the fami-
ly left their Texas home. The pictures
are new striking features of the grand
display in the California building.
The subject of Mrs. Jenkins latest
tapestry is "The Surrender of Mary
Queen of Scots to the Confederated
Lords at Carbery Hill" in January,
1867. The size is 5x7 feet, framed.
The queen is the central figure,
mounted on beautifully caparisoned
horse and clad in queenly robes. I'M
mediately in front is ROLAND, the
page, and near her, also mounted, is
Catharine Seaton, her attendant. The
forces of the contending armies are
drawn up on each side. Boutwell, is
to the right of the queen, clad in ar
NOR and mounted ON a prancing
charger. He is engaged in fierce
quarrel with Stuart, one Of the lead
ers of the queens forces, while Doug
las is reclining on his shield in wrapt
admiration of Queen Mary. The con-
federated lords form brilliant group
to the left, notably Kincaedie OF
Grange, who is seated on stump
awaiting developments and the sur
render of Queen Mary by her Scottish
retainers. The background is beauti-
fully lit up by the rays of the setting
sun, while to the left large tree with
spreading branches throws a pleasing
shadow. The clouds and background
complete the interesting scene, and the
entire picture is in perfect harmony.
The other picture by Mrs. jenkins
is somewhat smaller, being 5x7 feet
framed. II is equally beautiful and
attractive, and reflects great credit
upon the artist.

POSSIBILITIES OF ARKANSAS.

There is one subject, which, owing
to the vast importance Of the same to
the welfare Of our people, we have
never wearied of discussing and, in
every possible way, attempting to i'm
press in a practicable manner upon
the minds of our farming friends and
the agricultural element Of this sec
tion, generally. This subject, the di-
versifled farming interest of which
our State is capable, is one that affects
nearly, almost every element Of hui
man industry and upon which, in
great measure, depends the future
welfare and material prosperity Of
every class Of Arkansas citizenship.
Today the depression of all business
and financial interests, the South, Is
due largely to a continued oyerpro-
duction Of cotton and tho only reme-
dy for this great evil lies IN q diversl-
flcation Of farming products in the
cotton growing states. Now the only
question yet remaining is, can other
products be successfully grown in
this State, on paying basis? We
answer in the affirmative and in sup
port Of the faith that is in u.s. we
publish in another column of this pa
per an instance of what one man, OF
experience, energy and tenacity Of
purpose, has already done and that
too at our very doors. We earnestly
invite the attention Of the farming
public to a truthful account, every
word of which can be substantiated,
of what this man has done and is still
doing. II the lesson taught thereby,
is needed we ask no higher reward
for our labor In gathering and pre-
senting same.

Chinese situation in New York.

1t is authoritatively reported from
Washington that Secretary Carlisle
has taken hand in the Chinese situa-
tion in New York, which has been the
occasion recently of so much friction
between the treasury agents and Col
lector Hendrix. After considerable
correspondence on the subject Secre-
tary Carlisle brings the matter to a
close in letter to Collector Hendrix,
in which he is reported as saying:
"The department cannot concur in
your view that the unauthorized prac-
tice, discontinued by its order of 18Th
instant, of the Authorization Of certi-
ficates of the Chinese consul az New
York by the signature and seal of the
collector should be resumed. Evil
dence is before the department in one
case where Chinese person reported
himself TO be member Of q firm of
Chinese merchants in New York was
so certified by the Chinese consul in
New York, which certificate was duly
authenticated by the seal of the GUS
tom house and the signature of one of
your deputies, when in point of fact
the Chinese person who presented
himself at the custom house was an
other and entirely different person
from the one named In the certificate.

cording to your theory, would be con-

GONE TO HIS REST.
The Last of the Mexican War Gener-
ais, George W. Morgan, Dead.


Mount Vernon, Ohio, announcing the
death of General George w. Morgan
the last of the American Generals of
the Mexican War, who died at his
home In that city ON Monday, July
91st, and was buried yesterday in
Mount View Cemetery, with appro-
driate honors.
BIOGRAPHICAL.
The following brief, but interesting
resume Of the more important incl
dents of the eventful career of The
dead chieftain win prove of general
interest:
George Washington Morgan was
born in Washington county, Pennsyl-
vania, Sedt. 80, 1920. In 1886 he left
college and enlisting in a company
that was commanded by his brother,
went to assist Texas in gaining her
independence. Upon his arrival there
he was commissioned lieutenant in
the regular Texas army, but after at
tanning the rank of captain retired
from service. In 1841 he entered the
United States Military Academy, but
left in 1S43, and removing to Mount
Vernon, Ohio, began to practice law
there IN 1S45. At the beginning of
the war with Mexico he was made
colonel of the second Ohio volunteers,
and he was subsequently appointed
colonel of the fifteenth United States
infantry, which he led with ability
under Gen. Scott receiving for his
gallantry at Contreras and Cheru-
busco, where he was severely wound
ed, the thanks Of the Ohio legislature
and the brevet Of brigadier general.
He afterward practiced law until 1856
and was the appointed United States
consul at Marseilles. From 1858 to
1871 he was minister to Portugal.
In November 1861, he was made
brigadier-general of volunteers. In
1862 he assumed command of the
seventh division Of the army of the
Ohio. He was in command at the
capture of Fort Hindman, Ark. Ow-
ing to failing health he resigned in
1868. Gen. Morgan was opposed to
interference with the state institution
of the south. In 1866 he was elected
to congress as democrat. He was
q delegate at large to the national
democratic convention at st. Louis In
| 1876.
