Innovation at Pine Ridge,

In the past the Indians at Pine Ridge
Agency have been allowed to turn their
cattle for beef rations out onto the prairie
and chase them down ON their ponies to
kill them. A new man was placed in
charge of the killing, and changed the
method, having the beevcs killed by en-
ployes in the corral, as it is done at other
agencies. The Indians did not fancy the
innovation, and when the first issue day
came around held a council at the corral.
at which the head men made speeches
against the new method, finally threatens
ing an outbreak if they were not allowed
to continue their old methods. But the
bluff did not go with the farmer who had
charge of the issue and the killing wis
done according to his orders, by the police,
and the Indians were not given an oppor-
tunity to chase and worry their beeves
before they were killed.

Another Proposed Railroad.

J. A. Fleming, of the Globe, Flag staff & Canyon Railway Company, was in town Monday on his way to Denver, says the Coconino Sun. The new rond will run from Globe to Cameron trail, on the rim of the Grand canyon, a distance of 1S2 miles. A branch will also be constructed from point forty five miles north of Flagstaff to Tuba City, about sixty. five miles. This line to Tuba City will strike the big coal fields north of the Little Colorado river, and in time will extend to the San Juan river and thence to Durango.
 The proposed road will open up a section of Arizona which is rich m natural resources and which is now but sparsely settled for want of railroad facilities. The vast mining interests which lie between Flagstaff and Globe remain undeveloped because of lack of means of transportation of the ores. The road will between these points pass through the great pine timber belt of Arizona.

A Wagon Road to Globe.

Correspondence Florence Tribune: As there seems to be good ground to believe that the North & South road will soon be extended, the people of Maricopa. Pinal and Gila counties should take steps to revive the building of the wagon road from Queen creek to Globe by way of Buchanan's wood camp. The time has come to act, and I believe if the railroad company knew what an enormous amount of freight is hauled into Globe, they would not hesi- tate to build it themselves. Globe will unquestionably be the greatest copper producing camp in the West. In a few years the timber in the Pinal mountains will have been used up. and then will come the northern territory to supply the demand. The road will be paying proposition to the three counties. Mir. Craig, of Pinal ranch, says it can be built for sl5, ,0OO over a good grade. Set the ball rolling.

Poor umdees1!

There are degrees and kinds of poverty, just as their are differences of opinion among those who com- pute and measure poverty and riches by different standards. Some men deem themselves poor because they are less rich than others, again there are compara- lively poor people who are satisfied with a competence. There is a kind of poverty for which no amount of wealth can compensate, namely, a poverty of bodily stami- ma, evinced by nervousness and a Arrangement of the functions of digestion, bilious secretions and the bowels. To restore vigor upon a permanent basis there is one remedy that fully covers the requirements, fills the bill," and this is Hostet- ter's Stomach Bitters. By restoring digestion, giving a healthful inn pulse to the action of the bowels and liver and tranquillizing the nerves, it fulfills the condition nec- essary to a resumption of strength by the system. It also overcomes malaria and rheumatism.

A Washington, D. O., dispatch of March 30 announces the removal of Governor L. c. Huges and the appoint ment of B. J. Franklin, of Phoenix, as his successor. The removal of Mir. Hughes is the culmination of the bitter fight that has been waged against him by strong faction of his own party, almost rom his induction into office. Whether President Cleveland was con- vinced of the truth of the charges brought against Mir. Hughes, or made the change in the interest of party harmony, has not been made known. B. J. Franklin, the new appointee, is a lawyer who came to the Territory several years ago from Missouri, where he was prominent in politics, and doubt less owes his present success largely to the endorsement of his former polit- ical associates.

HERE'S RICHNESS

The San Francisco Examiner of March 22 contains a roseate sketch of the career of Miss Jennie Hilton, "the first of her sex to take up mining for the precious ores as a vocation,' and who made her stake in the wilds of Arizona, having, as it is alleged, sold her half interest in a gold claim at Harqua Hala for S25, 900 cash. Doubt less, after reading of Miss Hilton's phe- nomenal success, scores of plucly maid ems who aspire to the sobriquet of ''the new woman, will be fired with the. ambition to seek their fortunes in Arizona's suriferous mountains. The influx of an army of these fair fortune seekers would be hailed with delight by the sturdy masculine prospectors of this "sun-kissed land," who would gladly share with them their rock bound treasures for the sake of their cheering and refining presence. Certainly here is field in which the new woman would have unlimited scope to exercise her vaultiug ambition and shed luster upon the mining industry.
 1t is to be regretted that Jennie's experience was not related in her own simple language, unmarred by reporto- rial romancing. Globe was among the leading towns visited by the venture some Jenuie--who apdears to have been great traveller during her stay in the TerrItory-snd while few inaccuracies have crept into the description of our camp and people, yet the glowing tribute paid to our hospitality and difference to womsnkind compensates somewhat for the reflections on our crude ways and evil associations. That our home readers may judge for them selves af the accuracy of Miss Hilton's observations, we reproduce what is said about Globe:
 "The next winter QS9l) the school teacher prospector and her companions went down to Globe, which was then becoming a we'll known and prosperous mining camp. It was at that time the hardest camp in the Territory, for all the hard characters-men who had shot and stabbed men to death-in the Southwest had rushed there. But that did not deter Miss Hilton. There we've but two other women in Globe that winter She says she was treated with kindness, and on many occasions the courtesy shown her in a rude, crude way by the queer old characters, who had lived on the border of civilization for a generation, was really touching No oaths were intentionally uttered in her presence, no man ever raised a glass of whiskey to his lips if he knew she was present.
 "Indeed I was very much spoiled by that winter in Globe says Miss Hilton, because had so much atten- tion. A foreign potentate could have been hardly more obsequiously waited upon than I was. The facts about mining and the way to make money from low grade ores that I learned while was in Globe cannot be bad anywhere else, and are of vast impor- tance to a gold miner of today"

Governor Hughes was assaulted by P. J. Clark, newspaper correspond ent, in Phoenix on Monday last. Ac- cording to the Herald, the Governor had stopped on the street to read 8 letter handed him by a acquaintance. when Clark approached and, without warning, struck him in the face with his fist. The blow broke the Governors spectacles, the glass from which cut the eyelid quite badly. Clark went before Recorder Jobs, pleaded guilty to assault and was fined S5. Later a warrant was issued for the arrest of Clark and the trial set for the following afternoon. Clark considers himself deeply aggrieved at articles which have appeared at various times in the Tue son Star, which he believed were written by the Governor.

It ap- penrs that Kirkland received money at various times for deeds to tax titles, which he failed to turn into the county treasury. The sum total of these amounts collected and not reported by Kirkland aggregates S2S0.15.

A good idea may be gathered of the extent to which transmission of power by electricity is gaining ground in this country, says the Mining and Scientific Press, by the statement that, in the long-distance plants installed by the General Electric Company during 1895, over 1900 miles of copper wire for transmission purposes alone were used, amounting practically to 100000 pounds of copper.

yalue of Farm Amin ais.

According to statistics published by
the Department of Agriculture at
Washington, says the Ir on Age, the
aggregate value of farm animals in
the United States has declined very
materially in recent years. At the
present time the value Of these animals
is $755, $50, 597 less than it was in 1898.
The decline is more particularly OBJ
servant in the case of horses. Taking
the five years from 1890 to 1896, it is
shown that horses increase in number
until 1893. In 1892, however, their
value began to fall off, and in 1895 it
was not quite half that of 1892, show.
ing an aggregate decline in this respect
of about $500, 100000. This deprecia.
ton isattributed in the main to the in
PRODUCTION of trolley cars and byci-
cles. The high cost of fodder, howev-
er, after recent seasons of drought, is
also given as contributing cause.
The value of mules since 1890 has fall
en- nearly $50, 900, 900, or not far from
half the total existing value of these
animals in the United Safes. On the
other hand, milch COWS have increas-
ed in number, while the average value
of these animals has advanced steadily
within the past few years. The in
crease in the value of mich COWS last
year, as compared with 1894, is 81, 300,.
900. Oxen and other cattle decreased in
numbers more than 100000 in 1895,
while their value increased on an aver
ages S1.80 head in the same period.
A decline is noted in the numbers and
value of sheep in the last three years,
the decrease in value aggregating
about $50, 900, 900, and the falling off
in numbers of these animals last year
being nearly 100000. Swine, in
1895, declined 3 per cent ia number
and Is per cent in aggregative value,
the total decrease in the value of swine
in 1895 being nearly $33,000,0O0. 1t
is expected, however, that the enor-
nous corn crop of last year will have
favorable effect upon the next state
ment of farm animals, the tendency
to an increase in numbers and value
being already observable Times and

Another Advance Made.

The Keelev cure has been introduced
into the st. Agnes Hospital, Baltimore,
Md. The good Sisters realize that in
the Kelley cure is found the only hope
for those addicted to the liquor and
morphine habits, aud have made a
contract with the Keely Institute of
Maryland by which the Kelley treat
ment shall be administered at their hos.
pital by regular physicians instructed
by DR.. Keeley. This is another argu-
ment proving that the Sisters of Char
| ity occupy the front place in the care
of the diseased and in the service of
suffering humanity. The treatment
was adopted four years ago by the
United States government and is used
at the National home. Proving so ef-
ficacious the treatment is now given
at Fort Leavenworth Post, to the otti-
GERS and enlisted men of the regular
army. During the past two years the
States of Maryland, Minnesota, Colo
RADIO, Louisiana, North Dakota, Wis
consin and others have by legislative
enactments provided that INDECENT
liquor and morphine habitues be given
the treatment.
