tary and naval commanders telegraph.
via Che Foo, that the Japanese fleet adj
vanced upon Wei-Hai-Wei in two divis-
/ ions OF 10 ships early in the morning OF

We May Be a Cotton state.

Mrs. s. Tidwell sent us a small box of cotton boleS from her flower garden in Globe, and although she expresses the opinion that the soil vas no. very we'll adapted to cotton and that it did not receive water enough to bring it to perfection, nevertheless we were surprised at the size of the boles and the eE- cellent texture and length of the staple.
 All the valleys of Central and Southern Arizona are adapted to the growth of cotton, and by reference to the map of the United States it will be seen that Globe is on the parallel of latitude B ID. 26 sec, running through the cotton belts of Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, GeOr- gia and South Carolina. No atten- ton has been given to cotton in Arizona, because of the absence of facilities for putting 1t into market able shape and the high cost of transportation, and for the further reason that cereals aud fruits are equally well adapted to our soil and climate, and find ready sale at home. Perhaps when Arizona becomes more thickly populated and com petitiye railroads invite the export of agricultural products, cotton may become staple crop of the terri tory.-Silver Belt.

clercr Counterfeit. In Gl..s.

\ few pieces Cf the beautiful an- cient iridescent glass such as is found in the tombs of Greece and Asia Mi nor are generally to bo seen nowa- days in the cabinet of a collector of oriental porcelains, for tho delicate tear bottles" and similar pearly hued little vessels look well fiji such company. Tho buyer must be on his guard, however, lest the Greek or Roman glass be sold to him for the more highly prized and much more highly priced old glass of Phe- nicia. But he runs 0 greater risk than this
 Clever counterfeits have appeared in the market. A lot of Ph9nician glass recently imported to New York turned out to be wholly fraudulent so far as the iridescence was con- cerned. The plan adopted by the fa- kirs was to take piece of old glass without iridescence and therefore al- most valueless, and having treated the inside with colorless mucilage snake over this "tacky" surface a powder of finely crushed metallic beads. 4 little earth was then rub bed over to hide the evidence of the trick and to give the necessary look of antiquity.

Phenix papers hate to have their attempted train robbing sensation spoiled. The Republican says that it is quietly rumored that there is considerable truth in the reported hold-up of the Santa Fe train below Vulture the other night, and that the story of powder exploding along side of the track is gotten up to throw the perpetrators of the track until the officers nab them. The burning of the bridge is in itself a significant matter" The burned bridge occurred nearly forty miles from where the gun powder ex- ploded. The bridge caught fire on top and only one side burned. Had in endiaries fired 1t they would have done so from beneath and would have placed the fire where it would have burned both sides.
