Diamond Setting for Tools.

In working hard materials with dia-
monds set in metal there has always
been difficulty in preventing the stone
from being ripped out by the strain. An
effective method of doing this has been
devised. A little block of steele. suitably
notched to receive the diamond, is
brought to red heat, the diamond in
serted, and the block is passed through
small roll. The diamond is thus firm
ly imbedded in the block, though pro
jecting slightly beyond its sursacs, and
defies the strain of the most exacting
work.

LEGAL JUGGLERY <.
An Injunction Preventing the Sale Oi
 the Old p. 6 4. C. Railroad.
It Was Personal Properly in 1895, But
 Has Become a Railroad in 1896.

County Treasurer John Hsrtin was served with an injunction to- day to restrain hIm from selling the P. X 4. c. railroad, or any portion of it, or anything connected with it, for taxes. The complaint on which the injunction was sued, was pre-. pared and signed by Herndon X Norris, attorneys, and sworn to by J. C. Herndou. before T. c. Norris, notary public.
 The complaint is quite voluminous and recites the downfall of the road and the purchase of 1t by the plain tiff, H. C. King, for taxes, and then goes on to say that it is real estate. a veritable railroad, in fact as well as name, and as such the county assessor had no power or authority to list 1t for taxes, but that it was solely under the jurisdiction o! the territorial board of equalization. That, being a railroad, 1t Is not sub feet to distraint and sale as personal property.
 The complaint IS in bold contrast with a similar complaint filed oBe year ago, upou which an injunction was also issued to prevent the ssle of the road for taxes for the year 1894.
 This complaint was also sigued by Herndon & Norris, attorneys, the affidavit being subscribed to by J. c. Herndon, before T. G. Norris, a not ary public.
 The assessment for 1894 was made by the territorial board of equ lizS- tion, and the property was assessed as railroad property. The complaint in that case ayerred that it had ioRg ceased to be a railroad and that it was practically nothing, but d mass of ruins, and was therefore not sub ject to taxation as railroad property. but should have been assessed as personal property and plaintiff fur ther ayerred that he was ready and willing to pay taxes on it as personal property.
 The question which naturally sug- gests itself Is how these two aiiida- wits can be reconciled with truth and common sense. Ifthis was not a railroad in 1894 and not subjsc, to taxation as such, how did 1t become one in 1895, In 1894 Mir King was to pay taxes on it as personal because 1t was assessed as railroad property. In 1895 be 'auSe it is assessed as personal property he claims it Is bona ide railroad and as such Is willing to pay taxes on it.

A Former Ar,EonAn's Opinion of the New
 Mining Field Far Away

a Former Ar,EonAn's Opinion of the New
 Mining Field Far Away.
 James Shirley is ln receipt of letter from H. \. Palmer at Bulwayo, South Africa. in which the latter announces his arrival at that camp. Some idea of the length of time IL takes to communicate with that far away country may be given by the date on which the letter was written viz. February 9. and its receipt in Prescott on March 20 Mir. Palmer says he Is 650 miles inland from Johannesburg and that Il IS one ot the most promising gold mining fields he has ever visited, a country, in short. of unquestioned riches, but wild and new comparatively ID min ing. In making the trip from Johannesburg to Bulwayo, MT. Pal mer says ten wild mules were hitched to au old fashioned stage coach and turned loose, being guided only so far as keeping in the road went. When these mustangs played out, another relay was ready at the next station. By this method To miles a day was made On the trip the coach was upset three times, but no fatalities occurred to the passengers however. The English government be says, has partial control of that country at present, but 1t Is only question of time until that race will be supreme as masters of the situa- tion. Mr. Palmer had met but few Americans III the interior, in fact white men were very scarce every- where. In speaking of the natives he clasSed them as mere barbarlans. except Tn instances where they had been associated with white men ID the various settlements that are scattered in tha, region. In future letter NIT. Palmer stated that he would write more fully of the country, when We hope to be per mitted to give our readers a more aucurate idea of that new land and its wonders.

One of the most beautiful sights in connection with La Fiesta de Los Angeles this year will be the parade and exercises participated in by the school children. Heretofore their appearance has been the occasion of much interest, and as they proudly marched to the music of the bands, with their bright faces lit up with pleasure and satisfaction. cheer after cheer has but increased their joy.
 And then the idea of arming each one with the national colors, and their movement in unison in various drills, IS one which can not but thrill with patriotism the heart of even a stoic.
 This year children's day will come on Friday, April 2i, and will be of greater interest than ever, for in connection with their parade and evolutions, they will have the honor of throwing to the breeze the largest American flag ever unfurled in this country, which will be presented to them by Mir. J. F. Francis, president of La Fiesta, and which will be raised to the top of l50-foot liberty pole in Central Park.

Senator Vest in the senate on Wednesday is said to have caused much amusement by his witty and caustic criticism of President Cleve- lands speech before the Home Mis- sionary society, of New York. There seems" Vest said, to be a disposition on the part oi the ad- ministration to treat western people as if they were in a condition of popilage, as though they do not know their own rights or their own interests, &s though they must be informed ex-cathedra from the East in reference as to what Is best for them and what should be done for them. Even the president of the United States lately, on missionary occasion laughter spoke of the West az the land of immortality and crime. He stood with the light, the ghastly light, of the hell holes and rum cellars of New York blazing up- O. him and cantingly said that home missions must be used to civiliZe and to christianize the meu who  hare left their homes in the civilized east and gone out among the noun tains ana valleys of the wild and wolly west loud and general laugh ter We are told upon high eccles- iasIicsl authority that His Excellen- cy has lately laid down bis honors at the feet of Jesus. l am glad to know it. It has been the general impression among democrats that mugwumps and incense burners had got their honors and intended 10 keep them. l have great respect for the Christian religion and for missions at home and abroad; but this wss slander upon men who, with rife in one hand and ax in the other, have gone out and blazed the pathway for civilization in western wilds.
