LARGE LOSSES.
Verde Valley Ranohers Suffer From
 the Raging Rush of Waters.

Verde Valley Ranohers Suffer From the Raging Rush of Waters Harry Hoxworth returned yesterday from weeks trip through the Verde valley. He places the losses from the recent flood at $50, 900 and says that is low estimate. The waters have sub sided now, however. and no more trouble is apprehended.
 It rained for six consecutive days and the Verde was transformed from a placid stream into raging torrent. In that time it raised eight feet. overleap- ing the banks and completely inun- dating the whole country. The ranch CTS were warned of the approaching flood, thongh, and had ample time to transfer their stock to places of safety. The damage was thus entirely confined to lands. buildings and ditches.
 The principal losses were sustained by the Duff, Muse. Strayen, Hickey, Willard, Nichols, Scott and Cotton wood ranches. Eight acres were washed away from the Willard ranch and Wm. Nichols witnessed his entire orchard disappear with the rushing l waters.
 The greatest single loss was that suffered by the washout of the main company ditch at the Cottonwood ranch. IL was completely ruined for a length of 400 yards and it will take . large force of men and big outlay of money to repair the damage. The rushing torrent struck the site of the old Conger mill and it became thing of the past in an instant.
 No lives were lost during the deluge
 The residents are looking forward to the most prosperous summer that they have ever enjoyed, and are confident of plentiful supply of water until their crops are harvested. Prepara- tions arc being made to extend the ir- rigation system, and Tom Carroll, the store-keeper, is working an outfit of men on a three-mile ditch up into the high mesa lands. The ranchers have decided to pay more attention to corn and less attention to hay this year, as the former crop is better paying one and will be certain crop.
 The new Jerome railroad is running trains regularly. Mir. Hoxworth says it has ihe most serpentine track and the finest scenery along it's route of any line he ever rode over. The mines are all running full blast and about 400 men are employed.
 The hunting is, or rather was, ex- cellent, but Hoxworth and his gun cleaned out the best portion of the game. He killed so much that he could not bring it all home and the ranches have all got quail and ducks enough to keep them supplied for the balance of the winter.

TIE question of the division oi Apache county is agi'ating the citizens of that county, and bill has been iu- troduced in the legislature for the for nation of Navajo county. It is pro- posed to divide the county nearly in the center from north to south. tbe west half Go form the new county and Holbr00k to be the county seat. The proposed division will make two coun- ties and both will prosper under these new conditions. Aside from few officers there is but little opposition to the division, as both counties can be run at'less expense than Apache is now run. The greatest benefit, however, will accrue to inc residents of the wrs- tern balf or the proposed Navajo county, as they are compelled to make lcdiuu, and costly trip to St. Johns to attend court. If justice is done the taxpayers of western Apache, the legis- lature will create the new county of Navajo at this session and without any uppscessary delay.

man in go1d-bowed glasses behind the
dairy counter as he handed down "a
honeycomb for the inspection of an idle
customer, according to the New York
Sun. When was on the farm" he
;eontlnued, II could go all about the
hives and not get stung, and none of
the others dared go near the bees. We
used to have an old farmer come around
and tend to the swarms, but one day
when Iwas boy working in the fields
lheard great humming noise up in
the. air and saw a swarm a-cominp.
Well, 1 picked up a tin pan that was
there and hammered on it till the bees
settled on the end of fence rail. Then
I thought, I could tend to the swarm as
well as the old farmer, SO got an old
hive. washed it out with. honey and wa
ter, rubbed my hands and arms with
burdock juice sand honey. water, and
went at the bees. / got them Off that
rail by the handful and they never
stung me. s-is,s, -
After that I regularly tended to the
bees. Whenever there was swarm
rolleu ptmy sleeves, took off my shoes
and hat, and went at them. 1 have
taken them from all sorts of places, but
u was never stung only once. They'd
light on my head by the dozen and
crawl through my hair. That used to
send cold chills down by back. Some
times my arms were so covered with
bees that from wrist to elbow you
couldn't see the flesh. The one time
whenI was stung had found Swarm
on high limb and was saving it off, and
at the same time holding on to it that it
should not fall to the ground with the
bees In doing this I squeezed. one of
the bees, and it few straight at my
temple and stung me just above the
eye. Since ! left the farm the folks have
given up the bee business. There's no
doubt about it, bees like some folks and
Z hate others, and I don't know any rea-
son for the difference"

were of the Arab type. One of the
ships on which some Of the captured
horses were shipped was wrecked in at
tempting to escape from English frig-
ate. Another ship on which Junot
sailed was captured, and Junot was
made a prisoner. When Napoleon heard
theinews, he expressed more regret for
the loss of the horses than he did for
that of his favorite secretary, after
ward marshal Of France.
The horses that arrived safely on
French soil have left their mark on the

Sliced the Robbers.

Eleven members Of gang OF robbers
who had been infesting the silk district of
Chehkiangi China, were captured at q
mountain town recently while occupied In
bathing In the mountain stream that runs
past the town, The townsmen surround
ed the bathers and having bound them
set to work to slice their prisoners piece
by piece, in revenge for the death of some
Of their townsmen at the hands OF the
band last winter. After the horrible deed
was accomplished the fragments Of the
bodies Of the wretched robbers were thrown
into their own boat, and 1t was allowed to
drift down stream The timidity of the
mandarins, who dared not punish the rob-
bers for fear OF the vengeance of the rest OF
the band, was the reason why the towns
men did not take their prisoners alive and
hand them over TO the authorities.

MINISTER JOSE ANpRApR.

guela and Great Britain, Senior Andrade
has very little to say, but he Is willing to
talk by the hour to reporters concerning
the great resources Of his beloved country.
Venezuela, he says has about Q, 500, 900
people, one-1fth of whom are whites, while
the remainder are Indians, negroes and
hybrids OF the two last named races. Mosr
Of tho whites are Of Spanish descent, but
there are also Englishmen, Ge5mans,
Frenchmen and Americans. Because OF
Ter equatorial location and her towering
mountains Venezuela has about every
climate known to man. In the valleys the
heat is torrid; 1t decreases to the mildness
Of the temperate zone as the mountains
Are assembled from 9, 900 to 1000 feet, and
the mountain tops have an atmosphere Of
almost arctic GOODNESS.
In n short time one can thus pass from
regions of equatorial heat to those of in
tense cold This varying climate explains
why Venezuela Is able to raise about ev-
erything In tho agricultural line The
prilcipal products of the fields and woods
are coffee, cacaO, or cocoa from which
chocolate Is made; sugar, indigo dye
woods, rubber and lumber. Another very
profitable industry Is stock raising. Min
lister Andrade declares that the country is
SO well adapted to the production Of cattle
that man who has 900 head today may
safely rely upon the herd doubling itself
every two years. The last census showed
1900, 600 cattle and 5000, 600 sheep and
goats, IL larger number Of cattle per capita
than any other country can boast Of
Coffee growing is one of the most profit
able pursuits. The coffee plants begin to
