IT Amt OUR JONESY.

Harry Swank of the general ticket Of,
fees of the Santa Fe at Kansas City
writes the scribe to know if the gentle
man described in the following slip from
the X. G. Star can be our popular citl-
zen of the same name. He don't like to
think he can be, but argnes that the
name Taliaferro is an uncommon name,
and "Jones" Tallferro a still more un.
common one. The article in question
reads:
An armistice has been fixed up be-
tween Mrs. Gussie Taliaferro, who keeps
boarding house at 409 west fourteenth
street, and her husband Jones Taliaferro.
Mrs. TaIiaferro sued out an injunction
few deys ago restraining her husband
from coming on her premises on the
ground that he is nuisance, but Talia
ferro ignored the writ of the court
| That night he kicked up such disturb
( ance that Mrs. Taliaferro had to call in
big policeman to subdue him. But he
continued to stay at his wife's boarding
house and she says that he has been act
ing so contrite and behaving SO we'll OF
late that she concluded that she would
drop the injunction proceedings. The
case was to have been heard by Judge
Slower at Independence today. Yester
day Mrs. Taliaferro went to. e. A. Bur.
nett, her lawyer, and asked him not tc
have the case tried today. So the pro
ceedings were continued this morning
and the writ of injunction is still il
force. Mrs. Talaferro declares that il
her husband doesn't make himself OBJ
noxious she'll do nothing further, but il
he raises a rumpus she will put the writ
on him. She has a suit for divorce
pending against her husband.
The EAGLE would say that our Jones
is attending to business at the old stand
in New Mexico and his wife is moi
keeping boarding house in Kansas City,
unless he has more than one, which i
thinks unlikely Mr.. Swank had mel
Jones of White Oaks and had formed &
high opinion Of him.

The Fascination of Prospecting.

Prospecting is a fever-a mania which grows on one as does the habit of gambling, which It resembles, both being games of chance. The "knack at hoping" and the excitement induced by the hope keeps alive many men to-day whose hair and beard are as white as the snow on the mountains. Once a prospector, always a prospecJor, unless strike is made that will keep the lucky one in affluence the balance of his days Then, ofttImes the riches from one mine but serve to dig unprofitable holes in the ground, of which the only product is hope. Ard then one lucky strike - one man made rich ln few monthsl How many men does 1t cause to shoulder pick and shovel, tramp all day over the mountains, sleep on the hard cold ground at night and eke out A precarious existence as n prospector? It Is seldom tLat the man who discovers the mine makes the money. It is the man with the silver and gold in his pocket who comes afterward. In ninety-nine cases out of one hundred the man who makes the money is not the mau who "hoofed" it into a new mining country but the man who, few years later, rides into town in palace car. Few prospectors get rich-fewer save their riches. The prospector's life is not an easy one-'tis simply happy one.-EX.

In the Depths of Misery.

Though endowed with wealth "bsyond the dreams of avsrice," the wretched sufferer from chronic dyspepsia is plunged in the depths of misery from which he or she seldom emerges even for day at stretch. There is way to down the imp. Invoke the aid of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters and he departs. Keep using the medicine, and the relief you promptly experience finally becomes permanent and thor ough cure is effected. Heartburn, hatu- lence, uneasiness and sinking at the pit of the stomach, nervousness, insomnia these are symptoms first relieved and finally cured, with their cause, by thls ineffably reliable specific. Liver com plaint and constipation, brother tormen- tors of dyspepsia, are also sent to limbo by the Bitters. So are rheumatism, malaria and kidney complaint. Use this helpful medicine systematically, not by fits and starts.

SECRETARY HERBERT, when a demo- cratic member of the house, belonged to the crowd which never failed to charac- terize every trip of a republican official on a government vessel as a wicked waste of public money in junketing," but since he became secretary uf the navy he has become an expert in devis- ing excuses for trips for himself and family at government expense. His latest exploit in this line was the dIscov- cry that the Atlantic navy yards were all in need of the personal inspection of himself, his daughter, and his son, and possibly of some of his friends. Accord ingly the dispatch boat Dolphin was ordered from New London to Washing ton, where she is now taking on supplies for cruise of thirty days, but, this isn't to be ''junket;" it is to be an official inspection tour. What hypocri- tes these democrats are, anyway.

LAND BILL PASSED.

Coneressman Caminetti's bill in regard to entries of land passed the house last Wednesday. AS heretofore noticed, the intent of the bill is to save those making entries the delay, trouble and expense of appearing before United States registers and receivers by allow ing entrymen to swear to the required affidevits before any duly authorized state or territorial officer.
 The part of the law most immediately important to miners is the section which establishes 8 rule of procedure Tn all cases where contest arises as to whether the land in dispute is mineral or agri- cultural. The secretary of the interior and commissioner-general of the land office wrote to the house committee commenting the bili. The former wrote:
 "I would suggest that the proviso be amended SO as to read as follows: Pro- vided that the presence of rock-bearing gold, silver. cinuabar or other valuable deposits of minerals shall be regarded as prims facie evidence that the land containing the same is and always has been mineral in character; provided further Jhst in Investigating the character of the land, with view to ascertsining whether it is more vslurble for mineral than agricultural purposes, evidence may be taken of the mineral discovered or developed adjacent to such laod, proof of which shall be corro- borative evidence that the land ID question is mineral in character; provid- ed further that nothing herein contain ed shall affect any pending contest, and provided further that, except in Utah, wherever land is proven to be within a well-defined mineral belt it shall be prlma facie evidence of the mineral character of such land until the con- trsry is proved"
 The bill, ss passed by the house, prac- tically complies with those suggestions.

ZULICK is blatherskite and an ass. He belongs to New Jersey and not to Arizona. His vaperings about stgte- hood were made out of whole cloth as is evidenced by letter received in this city from a member of the senatorial subcommittee on territories, who says: "I see that ex-Governor Zulick of your territory, is doing considerable writing on statehood affairs, but in no one instance has he made a correct guess" And yet there are people who have faith in the fellow.

GOVERNOR HUGHES AND
 STATEHOOD.
AND

Yesterday we received two marked copies of the New York Times contain ing an interview with Governor Hughes. As the Times is democratic newspaper it, beyond doubt, IS reflex of the opin- ions of our democratic governor, who by the way when away from home poses imposingly as mighty man of war a regular "Dare Devll Dick" The interview which we publish elsewhere appeared in the Times on the 7th instant and the editorial, appended hereto, was published ID the same paper on the day following, i, g, August 8. With this explanation we commit the whole to the care and attention of our readers.
 "Aside from the objections to the pres ent admission of Arizona as a state to which we have referred heretofore, the fact that the bill passed by the house and favorably reported in the senate pro- vides for Its admission with the constitu tion hastily framed and adopted three years ago ought of itself to be fatal. A great many flaws are found in that con- stitution, and that is reason enough for rejecting the pending bill. The proper method of proceeding, when Arizona is fit to become state, Is the usual one of passing an enabling act and requiring a constitution to be carefully framed and adopted in pursuance of its provisions. The legislature of Arizona, consisting of twelve members in one branch and twen- ty-four in the other, passed an act on the 18th of March, 1891, providing for an election of delegates on the second Tues day in May for a convention to meet at Phoenix on the first Monday in Septem- Der. The vote was light, and the twenty two delegates chosen as constitution makers were not highly qualified for the task. But they put 1t through inside of one month, and in the following December the constitution was ratified, as anything purporting to be a state constitution would have been. Less than 5000 votes were cast. 1t is this constitution, admitted to bs defective and ambiguous Tn its provisions, with which it is proposed to admit the new state without delay, because each party has some hope that it may secure the two senators, and for no other reason whatever"

The recent letter from the judge of awards on Baking Powders at the Chicago Worlds fair, exposing the falsity of the claim of a Chicago house that its baking powder had received the highest award for strength, purity, ex- cellence, etc., is a scathing rebuke to those manufacturers of inferior baking powders who have no regard for the truth, but habituality seek, in their public announcements, to deceive con- sumers. The judge of awards states that DO such award was given to the Chicago concern, and has notified it that 1t must cease publishing his name in connection with its false statements.

MORGAN AS A PICADOR.
A Former Tucsonite Who Didn't Kill
 Bull at the Fair.

The San Francisco papers have had a good deal to say of late about the trou- bles between M. H. de Young and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. A former Tucson man is prob- ably at hs bottom of the whole affair
 J. D. Morgan, formerly pump man for Maish & Driscoll at one of their ranch es, will be recalled by many Tucsonites. Morgan went to the fair to make some money out of it, and has probably done so. Up there he was great man and a bull fighter. He organized bull fight, with himself as the picador and center of attraction. It is declared by the knowing ones that he knew he was safe in so doing, as the Society for the Pre- vention of Cruelty to Animals would in- terfere.
 Anyway, he was there, in a gorgeous costume made for the occasion, and the bull waa on hand too-s really fine and savage animal, who could have made Morgan step lively.
 The society had their officers there, and the fight was stopped, and so Nor gan did not get to make his debut as picador and kIll the bull.

SUGAR-MAKING in Louisiana is the sub- ject of an article in Harper's Weekly to be published August Ilth. The much discussed carbohydrate, which has per haps never before presented so many elements of mystery as in this day of senatorial investigation, is shown in text and picture, aRd in its progress from field to exchange-almost to the poiut at which it is discovered to be soluble in the tes-cup but insoluble in politics. The same number has a con- trlbution on the Corean situation, by Paymaster Rogers, of the United States Navy, and paper of interest in regard to the fifth anniversary of the New York Yacht Club.

THE "Mr. Fair" who talks so glibbily, and with characteristic far western energy" of the semi barbarism, gamblers and rum sellers of Arizona, as reprinted elsewhere from the New York Times, is not an Arzonan and never was. He was not here ten days in his whole life, and probably never will be, and yet 1t is just this class of individuals who so know ingly prate on the morals of Arizona and blacken her fair name whenever they can find anyone gullible enough to listen to them. If he has an itching to extol the governor, We have of course no ob- jections, but if he does it at the expense of the good people of this territory, then We are decidedly opposed to this class of tunnel rot.

 Lieutenant Flipper is in from Nogales In that end of the county politics is talked little, but the democracy there have so far no lambs who are ready for the slaughter in Nobemver.

 Water has been turned in the mains in the new water works. They have abundance of water. The main was too small, however, and does not throw a very high stream for fire purposes. However it is big improvement over the old method of private wells and pumps. The water is of good quality.
 The Mexican who was arrested for smuggling gold is now in jail in Guay- mas. It is now believed he was merely the creature of others, and that he will probably get of lightly. The owners are the Cienega Placer company, of Altar, and the manager, one Monte verde, and others have deen apprehend- ed and are liable to heavier punishment than the man who carried the gold. It is said that the smuggling has been golng on for long time, the company getting 10 per cent oore for their out put by having it changed into United States gold. They had q green man to do the smuggling, it is told, and on his first trip he was caught.

MISSOURI promises to be the scene of
 an interesting fight. Vest wants to
 succeed himself and ex-Governor Francis has a weakness in the same direction-!hGt is he wants to succeed Vest. The national administration is said to be wet nursing Francis and it is probable that Vest will be pulled down. In the event of a prolonged fight between the adherents of the two factions the republicans will have a chance for getting away with the bone.

Parker, and as grand sachem to the Arizona democracy has issued call for the gathering of the clars Rt a place yet to be designated. But Frank is little fly, and the Monte zumas are liable to call him down.

We hope that our political opponents, the democrats, will also meet in thIs city. The people of Tucson are noted for their open bearted liberality and conventions meeting here can be assured of good trestment.
 GENERAL WEAVER has been nomina- ted by the democrats in the ninth Iowa congressional district, and the pops are to fuse with the democrats on the issue. Weaver wants to go to Washington aw- fully bad. How distressinRly hard up a party must be to grasp at such a wind shaken piece of timber as Weaver. His record in Arizona, in connection with the Santa Cruz Water Ditch Company, will smear anything it touches.
