YUMA COUNTY.

A whitsman first set foot On what is faow Ynma County in 'l77l. 1t IS the .southwest division of the Territory, and tone of the four original counties of the Ter lritery. Many great reclamation projects are however on foot, and in few years ex- lpect'to Zee Yuma County rated as the t2itheht in the Territory.
 The first glimpse the traveller from Cali 'ornia catches of Arizona is that of the ipicturesque town of Yuma, which IS snugly situated in the embrace of gentle rolling mills, upon whose ecrests and sides the modern homes of our superior civilization are crowding the adobe dwellings into eeternal oblivion. Yuma is the gateway to Arizona, the new empire of the West, upon whose undeyeloped riches the eyes Of the country are at present turned, and as such, she is bound to grow and prosper with irapidity that at present can hardly be re- 'alized. But coupled with her geegraphl- ,cal position we find that she is the center aof 8 country whose agricultural possibili- ties are practically unlimited, being sur rounded 'Sy "a soil the fertility of which saxceeGs' that of the delta of the Nile, and svaiting only water to become paradise Of f5loom. Billions of gallons of that precious fluid have annually gone to waste at Yuma's very doors, but already reaction is taking place and many enterprises are .enFfoct to supply the Rfexgiving waters of Sthe yellow Colorado to the thirsty earth.

opinions Dltfcr rs to the Probable COr-
rectness OF the Reported Discovery Of
the North Pole.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-In scientific
circles in Washington the interest In
the report of DIR. Nansen's alleged
achievement would be much greater
If the news came in more authentic
shape and with more definite particu-
lars. The two points from which CON
firmatory dispatches are alleged to
have been received, namely, Irkutsk,
in eastern Siberia, and Archangel, in
Etiropean Russia, being more than
$500 piiles apart, in the opinion Of
LIEUT. William IL. Schueteze, of the
navy, who is thoroughly familiar with
theeSiberian coast, cast grave doubta
on the authenticity of the reports.
Mr.. Leon ,Hardsteigner, former as
sociate of DR.. Nansen, when the doctor
was curator of museum in Norway,
and who is now one of the curators Of
the United States National museum,
thinks there is nothing intrinsically
impossible IN the story, and bears high
tributD 70 Dr. Nansen's indonlitable
courage and felicity of resource.
Capt. Herndon, of the Smithsonian,
was a member of the expedition of
Peary in 1881, which went as far north
as Point Barrow. Subsequently, in
the whaling business, he spent five
winters there.
"The surprising thing to me-" said
he, sis that Nansen has been heard
from at this season of the year. The
only way l can account for Nansen's
return at this time of the year is the
possible fact that he has found land"
Gen. Greedy, the Arctic explorer,
gives little credence to the reported
confirmation of the success of DR.. Nan
sens attempt to reach the North Pole.
He laid particular stress, in speaking
of the report from Archangel, on the
fact that Nansen's theory of reaching
the pole was at variance with his al
legged arrival off the Siberian coast,
which the explorer did not contem-
plate in his arrangements for the ex-
pcditiOn.

A KENTUCKY LYNcHlNo.

Brace OF Barn burners Taken from
Jail-One Hanged to the Limb of Tree
During the Excitement Attending the
First Execution the Other Prisoner
Makes Good His Escape In the Darkness
OF Night.
LEXINGTON, KY, Feb. 1S.--A mob of
20 masked men attacked the Wayne
county Jail at Monticello at an early
hour Sunday morning. The jailor was
overpowered, his keys taken away, the
cells unlocked and Fountain Martin
and James Troxell white men, who
were arrested several weeks ago
charged with burning the barn Of
Bonnie Bates. were taken from the
prison. The men were carried to
point near Steubenville, where, in a
little grove the body of Martin was
found colo in death He had no coat,
hat or shoes.
Troxell appeared at farmhouse
three miles from the scene of the hang
ing and got breakfast Sunday morn
ing. He said that while the mob was
hanging Martin he made his escape in
the darkness.
This wass the thru attempt to lynch
I TroxelL Three weeks ago he was
taken from his home by mob and
hung to tree until he was nearly
dead, in order that he might confess
to the burning of Bates barn or tell
who did it, He swore out warrants
the next day for q number of promi-
nent men in and around Steubenville,
but he never appeared against them,
and he was later placed in jail with
Martin, who had at first been charged
with burning the Bates barn.
While in Jail each accused the other
of burning the barn and of other barn
burnings. The Stuebenville people
learned of these conversations between
Martin and Troxell, and believing them
both guilty of destroying nearly a
score of barns in Wayne county dur
ing the past year, they determined to
make short work of them.
No one has seen Troxell since he got
breakfast Sunday, and it is believed he
is making his way into the Cumber-
land mountains, where pursuit would
be we'll nigh impossible.
Monticello not being telegraph
station the above news reached here

surrendered, joining the invaders with
