ARIZONA.
she Should Be Admitted Into the
United States.

A careful reading of the newspapers
of Arizona discloses that the develop
ment of the rich and varied resources
of the big territory is proceeding in q
most gratifying manner despite the
many drawbacks that have existed to
development everywhere during the
past seven years.
Perhaps this development is most
prominent in the mining industry,
which IS taking great strides forward
this year. Arizona is very rich in gold,
silver and copper. and it needs only
brains and the magic touch of capital
to place her in the front rank among
the producers of these important
metals. A large amount of prospect
ing is being done and the results seem
to be entirely satisfactory to the pros
pectors, if one may judge from the
published interviews.
The cattle industry, too, which has
been picking up somewhat all over the
country during the past year or two, is
no small factor in the industry and
prosperity of Arizona, and will add con-
siderably to the roundup of the years
profits.
A new railroad to the Grand canyon
of the Colorado will surely be built very
soon, if indeed, it is not completed this
year. This will add greatly to the at
fractions of the territory, and will draw
many visitors who perhaps now labor
under the mistaken impression that
Arizona is an almost trackless desert.
The leading cities of the territory,
too, are doing very we'll and displaying
unmistakable indications of up-to-da
enterprise and push. Phoenix, Tucson,
Tombstone, Prescott and others that
might be named are feeling the impetus
and moving ahead accordingly.
If congress will have the justice to
admit Arizona into the Union next
winter it will grow and prosper as it
never has before. surprising its most
sanguine friends. The Herald sincerely
hopes that the result will be achieved. -

What is Going on Among the Metal
Searchers.
Lew and John Blakely and their
wives came up from Cedar, where the
Messrs. Blakely have been developing
their mining property for some
time past. They have located new
find in the Cedar country, assays from
five ounces gold per ton. A six inch
streak in the ledge gave a return of
500. The ledge is over two feet in
width. The boys will return to the mine
in few days and sink shaft to depth
of fifty feet as rapidly as possible
Mohave Miner.
Hon. r. r. Richardson has just
leased fifty acres of patented placer
ground,in the Greaterville mining dis
trict to Chicago company. This COM
pany will put in large new dry process
machine which it is claimed will wash
fully 100 tons of ground per day. The
Greaterville district is in extent and
richness one of the best placer fields in
the western country, but could never
be worked to any extent, owing to
the almost entire absence of water.
If the above company have machine
which will do the work, there is no
need to look TO Alaska for Klondike,

What We Should Drink.

We should drink from one-third TO
two-ffths as many ounces as we weigh
in pounds, says Professor Allen in the
Journal of Hygiene. Therefore, for
man weighing 16S pounds would be re-
quired from fiftyrsix to siXty-four
ounces daily, or from one and one-half
to four pints. This we regard as a very
indefinite answer. The amount of
water required depends on the season
of the year. the amount of work done,
and the kind of food eaten. In hot
weather we require more than in cold,
because of the greater loss through the
skin. though this is in part made up by
the lesser amount passed away through
the kidneys. If man labors very hard
he requires more than If his labor Is
light; man working in a foundry
where the temperature is high and the
perspiration profuse not infrequently
drinks three or four gallons daily.
If the food is stimulating and salty,
more water is required than If it is not.
Vegetarians and those who use much
fruit require less water than those who
eat sailed fish and pork, and often get
along with none except what is in their
food.
In most cases our instincts tell us
how much water to drink far better
than any hard or fixed rule. For ages
they have been acquiring a knowledge
of how much to drink and transmitting
that knowledge to descendants, and if
we follow them we shall not go far out
of the way. 1t is of more use to us to
know that pure water is essential and
that impure water is one of the most
/ dangerous of drinks, than to know how
much of it is required daily.
If one lives in a region where the
water is bad, 1t should be boiled and
put away in bottles, well corked, in an
ice-chest, and, in addition, one should
eat all the fruit he can if fruit agrees.
Fruits contain not only pure water,
but salts which are needed to carrying
on BEAUTIFULLY the functions of life.

"FLlES" ON VESSELS.
Not the Little Insect, but Weather
Vane to Aid in Steering.

Vane to Aid in Steering.
There IS much curious sea lore In an
article by Gustav Kobbe ON Steering
Without a Compass" in St Nicholas.
Mr.. Kobbe says:
The Fly" at the masthead is often
used as sign to steer by. 1t revolves
on pivot, and hence, like a weather.
vane. shows the direction from which
the wind is blowing; whereas a flag at
tached to a halyard streams directly
astern, or at an angle more or less af-
fected by the speed and course of the
vessel. A glance at the fly having
shown the winds direction, a glance at
the pinnacle shows from what point of
the compass it comes. Then, by watch
ing The fly, and thus keeping the ship
always at the saCne angle to the wind,
you are able to keep her ON her course.
The ships of different nations have
distinctive flies. The American and the
English fly is a little triangular PEN
non. German ships often have small
tapering bag at the masthead, and
French vessels 'dog-vane"-a line of
corks with colored feathers ON a wire.
The steamers of the French Line from
New York to Havre have a dog-vane at
each masthead-it is one of their dis.
tinguishing marks.
Steering by the fly is one way of
steering by the wind, but there are
other tricks for finding the wind-point.
A sailor can find the point of stiff
breeze by simply letting it blow
against his face. In light air, al
most calm, he lifts his cap and turns
his head until he feels the cool breath
on his moist brow, which is far more
sensitive than his sun-tanned face; or
he moistens the edge of his hand, and
turning it toward the wind, waves il
gently back and forth and to and fro
until the GOODNESS of the air is felt on
one side of that narrow surface and
not on the other. In heavier airs he

TWO CLAIMS SOLD FOR $4,000.
Enterprise and st. Paul, the
south Fork of I<nsIo Creek.

Kaslo, BIC, Aug. sc. F. Caldwell has
purchased from Ben Peterson and c. Bill
ston two recently located claims-the En-
terprise and st. Paul-near the head of
the south fork of Kaslo creek, for $4,000.
The south fork is attracting a great deal
of attention, and many new locations
are being made on it. It's mines are di-
rectly tributary to Kaslo, and to no other
town. Such mines as the Montezuma,
Gibson, Silver Bell and Black Fox are
looking well. The great need now is a
wagon road, which the government has
promised to help build.

Vancouver, B. c., Aug. 1.-The huge
run of salmon on Fraser river contin-
ues, and all canneries have placed a
limit on the number to be taken from
each boat. Fishermen usually only make
one drift, and catches of 200 and 300 fish
are quite common. Six hundred and for
ty-fve fish were caught in one drift Mon
day night. a large quantity of salmon
is being sailed, and as a result salt has
jumped in price from 81 to $50 per
ton.

The OYSTER.

The oyster has no greater enemy than
the starfish 1t appears difficult how
ever, for fish to open the shell Of an
oyster. which requires certain
amount of skill even with an oyster
knife; but the starfish has a peculiar
method of leverage upon the opening
of the two shells which the oyster can
not resist. Biologists used TO think
that the starfsh simply starved the
oyster until it opened of its own ac-
cord; but observation has shown that
by the pressure it applies the bivalve
speedily becomes a victim to its in
genious enemy.
