ONE MILLION ACRES
Of Government Land Ira the
 Great New River Valley,


 San Dsigo County, on the line of San Diego Yuma and Phoenix Railroad. Few people are fully aware that
 there lays hidden by desert sand hills on the east and north, and by
 the coast range of mountains on the
 west, with the Mexican boundary
 line on the south. rich valley of over one million acres of govern.
 ment land, the soil of which Is
 richer than that of the Nile, and every acre of which can and will,
 before many years, be irrigated by the great irrigation ditch which the Colorado River Irrigation Company propose to bring water in from the great Colorado river from a point above Yuma called "Pot Holes" The land is there. The water will be there also. The valley is called the great New River Valley, but it should be called the California Nile. The soil is a rich alluviaf, and has been examined by experts who have pronounced it richer than that of the famous Egyptian valley that grows corn as if by magic. Four years ago over 48,000 head of cattle grazed oyer this New River Valley. It must have been covered with a heavy growth of grass to have sustained them. In the center of the valley and near the boundary line are Fish and Mesquit lakes, which are quite large and filled with water which flows into them from the Colorado river. They are full of fish and hunting is also a sport which can be enjoyed in their vicinity. Large forests Of mesquit trees exist there, some of which are from thirty to forty feet in height. It IS the con- ing land of milk and honey-the California land of the lotus-the place which will grow tropical fruits to profusion, as we'll as coffee, tobacco, rice, and such.
 Today this great tract of govern ment land is open to antry by all who will, but before many years 1t will be selling for hundreds of dol lars per acre. It illustrates the old saying that whatever can be had but for the taking, people don't rush after, but when it becomes valua ble people will rush to buy it because then they "must have it."
 This great valley of government land lays on the route of the San Diego and Phoenix railroad, which will go through the center of it, and when it and the great water ditch are built to this great body of land, then will San Diego county have within it's borders another "Okla- homa rush."
 To properly understand the size of this great body of irrigable land, will say that it Is as large tract as all of the western part of San Diego county, from the Cuyamaca to the ocean and from the northern boundary line of the county to the Mexican boundary line.
 When 4S,OOO people inhabit the tract it will do much to make San Diego grow. Why not?-San Diego World.
 The above tract of land lies across the Colorado river and is only few miles from this city and ts settlement and cultivation means much for us as we are sure o get great deal of trade from he settlers -Editor

avs the Youths Communion.

says the Youths Companion,
From the moment when the destrucs
ton of the town was menaced by the
rapidly advancing wave of flame, he
ceased to think of himself and devoted
all his energies of mind and body to the
protection and rescue of others.
He went from house to house, warm
ing the inmates of their peril, and beg
ging them to take refuge in sand pits
where there was water. While panic
stricken men were harnessing horses
and frantically seeking to escape into
the burning woods, he was calm and
collected, reaSsuring everyone whora
he met, yet pointing out the only
chance of safety.
He led one group after another to the
sandpits when they were beside thems
selves from fear and excitement. When
one place of refuge was overcrowded
he found another, and begged the strag.
glers to follow him.
The woods were flaming on every
side, and the refugees standing in the
water felt in their faces the seorching
breath of the storm Of fire. The good
priest had words of encouragement for
all. He held children in his arms; he
supported fainting women when they
were falling from fright and fatigue;
he put the stoutesthearted man to
shame by his GOODNESS, cheerfulness and
energy.
With his hat he poured water on the
heads of women and children in that
fiery furnace. He took the coat from
his back and tore it in half. One frag-
ment he dipped in water and bandaged
the forehead of woman with a child
clinging to her. The other half he
wound around the heads of two help
less children whose faces were scorched
with the heat of the burning forest.
Bareheaded and in shirt-sleeves he
stood among the dying and ministered
to them while he had strength to
stand, eyes to see and a voice to utter
words of comfort and hope. His was
the spirit of self-sacrifce and of minis
try to the needy, and whether shown
in Catholic.or in Protestant it is worthy
of high commentator.
The fight of the train through the
burning forest was the more stirring
story in print, but what could have
been nobler or more heroic than this
devoted mans work among his flockl
There were deeds of valor and chivz
airy before the walls. of Zutphen in
Flanders, but one act of self-sacrifce
alone is remembered. Sir Philip Sid
ney, wounded, dying and burning with
thirst, put away from his own lips the
bottle of water which had been brought.
to him in his agony and gave it to a.
common soldier covered with gore who
had glanced at him wistfully.

THE NEGRO VOICE.
1t Is Not Adapted to the Singing of White
d, Mans Music.

Mans Music.
Owing to personal idiosyncrasies the
vocal apparatus of the negro differs
from that of the white man. The arch
of the roof of the mouth, the nasal
sounding board of the colored man, has
another conformation. If a true col
ored man were to paint his face like a.
white mans and sing an English, Ital,.
ian or German aria it is his voice which
would at once give him away. says an.
exchange. The initiative faculty is,
however, very strong in the negro so.
he cannot help himself in following the,
white mans music and the white mans;
words. The true, pure African song is
probably the "Juba."
Il is hardly a song, but chant,
abounding in spoken words AS to.
rhythm, the native negro, or the one
born in the United States, has that to.
a marked degree If now and then
there has been. an occasional negro.
vocalist of merit since their period of.
freedom, why has there not been an in
strumentalist? The reason is plain. To
have fine voice is an accident of
nature. To play an instrument well,
so as to gain reputation as violinist.
or pianist, means, in addition to natural
talent, to devote to the violin or piano,
many years of study. The race instinct
in the negro does not incline toward
persistency of purpose. With rhythm
alone, as Wallaschek shows, primitive
music began.
