ARTISAN WATER.
Cochise County Wells Are Increasing
 Their Flow

Tombstone Prospectof: Reports from St. David and vicinity are to the effect that the artesian wells are in- creasing in their flow of water. There are now eight flowing wells on the river, each one sending out a strong stream. The McRea well, which was the first one sunk, and on which sec ond and a larger has been sunk, is keeping up its output, and the large reservoir which was made for storing the winters flow is now full and enough water is stored with the daily product of the we'll to assure an abun- dance for irrigation purposes for the entire summer, independent of the river supply. The other wells are not so strong as this one, but sufficient water is had, with an occasional de- mand on the river, to secure bountiful crops. And now, with the water ques- tion settled, there is no reason why the section of the country lying be- tween Benson and Charleston should not be as productive and the people as prosperous and happy as in any part of the territory, for with the sup ply of water for irrigation purposes from the artesian wells, there will be plenty of good water for all and no cause for expensive litigation will ex- fst, and the heavy drain upon the ranchers in this section in this direc- tion is now thing of the past, and the profits can be applied to the i'm provement and beautifying of their homoc

Fight Between Otter and Hawk.

The Berlin correspondence of the Lon don Standard writes that strange con- fict was observed the other day by fishermen on the Frische Half, near Konigsberg, in east Prussia. For some time they had noticed two otters which had ventured on to the ice. As they were watching them, large hawk came flying from neighboring forest and alighted on the ice not far from the otters. Soon, however, it scared into the air again, swooped down like lightning on one of the otters, and stuck its claws into its back The other otter fled. A desperate fight en- sued. It lasted ten minutes, and ended in the death of the hawk. Its neck was bitten through, only thin strip of skin remaining to unite it's body with its head After it's victory the otter dived into the water

Arbor Day Proclamation.
TERRITORY OF ARIZONA, { EXECUTIVE OFFICE,

tAECUIltE OtflCE J To the people of Arizona, Greeting: By virtue of the law of the territory of Ari- zona, the Friday following the first day of Feb rua1y in each year has been designated as Arbor Day, and as such is to be observed as legal holiday and the governor is directed to make proclamation of the same.
 The county school superintendents of each county are required to prescribe course ofexer ,cises to be observed by the public schools. Ind it is made the duty of the authorities in every public school to assemble the pupils under their charge and to have and to hold such exercises as shall tend to encourage the planting, protec- tion and preservation of trees and shrubs and the best methods to be adopted to accomplish such results.
 In this arid region of almost perpetual growth, with climate so benign, the possibih- ties of the soil so generous, where plant life under the vitalizing power of irrigation de- velops so rapidly and comes to such high state of perfection and the desert can be transformed into the vineyard, orchard and forest growth, augmenting rainfall. retarding evaporation and thus creating natural reserv- oirs, this day and its purposes are most significant.
 Therefore, I, Louis C. Hughes, Governor of the Territory of Arizona, pursuant to law do hereby recommend that
 ARIZONA'S ARBOR DAY, FRIDAY, FEBRU-
 AIRY SIXTH, a. D., 1896, be observed by the people of the Territory as the annual festival of the year, when parents and children alike will participatei in the plant ing of trees, vines, shrubs and flowers, in beau tifying school grounds with living monuments of their school days, in the promotion of forest and orchard growth in cultivation; in the adornment of private and public grounds, places and ways, and in such other efforts and undertakings as shall be in harmony with the the character of the day.
 "He who plants tree.
 He plants love,
 Tents of coolness spreading out above, Wayfarers he may not live to see.
 Gifts which grow are best;
 Hands that bless are blesI;
 Plant, life does the rest Heaven and earth help him who plants tree, And his work it's own reward shall be-. Done at Phoenix, the Capital, this 29th day of January, A. D., 1896.

Gold Coin Contracts.

The question of the legality Of what
are known as gold coin contracts" was
recently raised at Omaha. 1t came up
in the case of Chase against Wren. an
action to collect payment OF a $1,000
mortgage, on which a default in interest
had occurred. Attorney for the defense
raised the point in the district court as to
the effect of inserting in note or con.
tract the words, ''to pay in gold conn., or
the words "pay in gold coin or its equiv
alent," and argued that in either form
the note would be illegal, being in viola
lation of the legal tender laws and con
trary to public policy. 1t was further
argued by the defense that if not voiding
and invalidating the note entirely, the
section requiring the payment in gold
was void. During the argument the
court said that it would not enforce that
part of the note contract to pay in gold /;
that if it came to a question of holding
that the note was payable in gold coin or
that the contract was illegal and void, the
court would hold that it was illegal and
void.

Who ME. Hobart L..

The candidate for vice president on the
republican ticket while but little known
outside of New Jersey is a man of conse-
quence in that state. Garret Augustus
Hobart is a native Jerseymsn and a
graduate of Rutgers college. The New
York Tribune is authority for the state
ment that he is 81 years old, of good
health, even temper, courteous, polished
OF good business reputation and an ex-
perienced parliamentarian.
He was speaker of the house of assem-
bly, and twice president of the state SEN
ate, and IN 1884 was the republican eau
Gus nominee for United States senator.
That same year he was chosen mem
Der of the republican national committee,

that body. The esteem in which Mr..
Hobart is held by his fellow Jerseymen
may be inferred from the fact that the

commended hun to the national conven-
ton as candidate for vice president
Mr.. Hobart is emphatically in favor OF

Aphis on Rose Bushes.

We have more trouble from a small
black fly, with red head, than with sphis,
as the fly eats the full-blown flower as
well as cutting into the heart of the rose.
Aphis. we can easily destroy, by spray
ing with weak solution of quassia chips
and whale oil soap. Five cents worth OF
each, will make five gallons OF wash. and
is quite sufficient for twenty-five tea, or
twenty hardy, or ever-blooming roses.
For the fly, we sprinkle the entire bush
with SCOT, obtained from the inside of the
stove pipe, or lids of the stove, leaving it
on over night, and washing off early in
the morning.
If these rules are followed, any one can
have an abundance of lovely, rare roses,
always granting the soil is kept loose,
and plenty of manure, liquid or dry is
given from time to time and that to grow
flowers successfully, one must love them
and study their habits.
