YUMA INDIAN LANDS.
Indians Claim Ownership of Their
 Holdings.

A recent dispatch says: The dis pute over the alleged illegal occupancy of lands in Lower California within the Mexican domain by the Yuma In dians has broken out afresh and Min ister Romero of Mexico has made a formal complaint and called for their transfer across the line to this side.
 MT. Romero's complaint has been investigated and report has just been made to him by the Secretary of the Interior, through the State Depart ment.
 Agent Estudillo of the Mission agency in California was communicat- ed with and lie made a personal in Yestigation. He found the Indians opposed to any change, claiming they had lived upon the land for many years without knowing or recognizing any difference of government, either Mexican or United States. They dis played commissions for the land signed by Gov. Sanguines long time ago, and asserted that absolute right to the lands occupied by them. The Indians have lived along the Colorado River on both sides of the Mexican line, and the agent reported there was no way clear for making them leave.

From Yuma.

Capt. Polhamus If this village, made Tucson flying visit the first of the week, returning come Tuesday. In an interview with the editor of the Star of that city he said:
 "The opening aud operation of the Sulphur mines of Lower California will create large traffic, as 1t is the inten- tion of the company just organized to ship about g thousand tons month This will be taken up hy steamer from Lower California to Yuma, and ship ped from there to the California works.
 The outlook for Yuma county was never so good as now. The many gold discoveries and the developments now going gre all encouraging, and some very rich properties are being opened up.
 There are other irrigation proposi- tions beng inaugurated in addition to the big canal. which will sooner or later he taken out by convict labor. The latest one to be taken under con- will be diverted above Ehrenburg, which will reclaim a vast area of land almost equal to the rich valley lands below Yuma"
 The Captain is one of the genuine pioneers of Arizona, having been run ming steamer on the Colorado river for more than forty years, and knows more about the river than any living man. He has been up as far as any boat has ever gone-to the falls of the Grand Canyon and up the Virgin in Nevada-and makes regular trips now to the headwaters, or as far as naviga lion Is practicable, IS we'll as down to the gulf.
 The Star is pleased to note the pros perity Yuma is now enjoying, and to learn the facts from one of Arizona's truest and most worthy pioneers, for Captain Polhamus is the genuine stuff.

Smiles Irradiate the COuntepance

When those atrocious bodily troubles, chills and fever, dyspepsia, kidney or rheumatic disorders, yield, as they invariably do, to the benign action of
 Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, remedy of comprehensive use, pure in com position, unobjectionable to a delicate palate, and thorough in effects. Sick headache, loss of appetite, flesh and sleep, nausea, heartburn, are araong the physical annoyances obviated by the Bitters. They are in the nature of signals of distress displayed by disordered stomach, liver and bowels, and disappear with the cause that produced them. But these signals should be needed at once. Then the woe begone look of chronic ill health will speedily disappear, and vigor and comfort restore a cheerful aspect to the face. That faithful index to the condition of the system never foils to wear a lock of sunshine when the Bit ters is used to dispel the cloud.

Tie Colorado River Claims Another
 Victim.

After sojourning there for nearly month they started on their return to Yuma and when within B miles of this place the latter named was drowned on May 11th.
 At the time of the accident Trevar- than was in the boat standing up and prcpelling it along by catching hold of bushes that were growing along the river bank. One pulled out by the roots and as result the unfortunate man was precipitated into the swollen Colorado river which is very high st this season of the year.
 DeTurk who was walking along the river bank Saw him fall iuto the river and rushed back to give him assistance, but the unfortunate man was heyond all earthly aid for the swiftly flowing waters of the Colorado had buried him beneath it's sands and he never came to the surface again.
 MT. DeTurk engaged number of Indians to watch the banks of the river for the body and after searching himself two days came to Yuma and gave out the sad intelligence.
 William Trevarthan had been en- ployed at La Fortuna and leaves wife in Globe, Arizona.
 The Colorado river seldom gives up it's dead, and the chances are that his body will never be found.
 A brother of the drowned man came in with Joe Golden Wednesday from La Fortuna. After hearing the par 5iculars returned to the camp as also lid DeTurk.

We all know that any tired muscle can be restored by rest. Your stomach is muscle. Dyspepsia is its manner of saying "I am tired. Give me rest" To rest the stomach you must do it's work outside of the body.
 This is the Shakers method Of cur ing indigestion, and it's success is best attested by the fact that these people are practically free from what is with out doubt the most prevalent of all diseases. The Shaker Digestive Cor dial not only contains digested food which IS promptly absorbed without taxing the tired digestive organs, but it is likewise an aid to the digestion of other foods in the stomach. A 10 cent trial bottle will convince you of it's merit, and these you can obtain through all druggists.
 Laxol is the best medicine for child ren. Doctors recommend it in place of Castor Oil.

OF THE REPUBLIC,

 The Nations Ssbblth Day-that day up on which patriotic people gather together everywhere to do honor to their sacred dead, is again upon Es. Let us. as is most fittingly unite in making the solemn service of Memorial Day as impressive as possible by appropriate exercises, and by strewing beautiful flowers upoR the graves of our comrades, and so show to the world that as citizens we appreciate their great sacrifices for their country, and as comrades we revere their memories; and to the rising generation that he who dies for his country dies nebly. In the words of the lamented Logan; eff other eyes grow dull, and other hands slack, and other hearts cold, in the solemn trust, ours shall keep it as long as the light and warmth of fife remain to us"
 Let us invite to osr assistance in this patriotic work that noble band of workers, the Woman's Relief Corps, who have done 80 much toward the success of our great or ganization, and also the Sons of Veterans, who must soon take up the work which the ravage of time shall compel us to lay down. In the interest of patriotic instruction te the children it is earnestly hoped that the laudable work of talking to the children of the public school on the subject and lessons of Memorial Day by veteran, who so general throughout the order, will be observed this year, and hereafter, in every public school. Let every post, in accordance with usual custom, attend devine services in some church, in body, On the Sunday before Memorial Day.
 The 30th of May falling this year on Sun- day, Memorial Day will be observed, ac- cording to rules and reglations, on the preceding day, except in such States as by law or custom observe the succeeding day. Comrades as we grow older let us be more particular in the observance of thls sacred day, and let us discourage the holding of games and frivolous amusements thereon by thoughtless people in every possible way. By resolution, the Thirtieth National Encampnent recommended that the reading of Lineoln's G.ttysburs Address be made a special feature of Memorial Day exercises held under the auspeices of the Grand Army of the Republic.
 The address is appended hereto, and those in charge of the exercises on Memorial Day will cause the same to be read at such time during the exercises as may be most fitting. By command of
