It IS the southwest division of the Territory, anu gne of the four original counties Of the Ter zitsry, Many great reclamation projects are however CT foot. and in few years ex- pect to see Yum. Courty rated as the richest in the Territory.
 The first glimpse the traveller from Cali s5ornia catches of Arizena is that Of the picturesque town of Yuma, wh.oh IS snugIy situated in the embrace of gentle rolling hills, upon wnoss crests and sides the modern homes of cur superior civilization are c-owding the adobe dwellings into eternal 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 a rapidity that at present can hardly be re- alized. But coupled with her geographi- cal position we find that she is the center of 6 country whose agricultural possibili-
 ties are practically unlimited, being snr- rounded by soil the fertility of which exceeds that of the delta of the Nile, and wanting only water to become paradise Of bloom Billions of gallons 6t that precious fluid have annually gone to waste at Yuma's very doors, but already reaction is taking place and many enterprises are on to supply the life-giving waters of 'ehe yellow Colorado to the thirsty earth

aims and deserts. Tae man who looks for either the beauty or the seductive excite ment of Monte Carlo will not find it. As , little will he iBd tho historic remains or the cosmopolitan attractions Of Egypt; nor could he reasonable expect the anusements and luxuries of oar own Eastern cities. The people of Arizona are still chiefly busy in the pioneer work of suhduing it to the residence and uses of civilized man. But it has two tTanscontinental lines Of railw ay with numerous feeders; it has fast mails, and rival telegraph llnes, and is throbbing with the intense life of the splendid West.
 The two principal towns in the south ern portion, chiefly sought for their climatic advantages, are Phoenix and Tucson. Each of them has ten thousand inhabitants or more. They have the electric light, tele- phones, trolley cars, plenty of hotels, banks, bookstores, good schools, churches, an occasional theatrical performance. some times lecture or {. circus, often horse race, and in the spring, a thoroughly curious and interesting ''festa.' For the cest, people must take their amusements with them. Good horses are abundant and cheap, and there are plenty of cow boys-the genuine article--to show what horses can do. The driving for fifteen or twenty miles in almost any direction from Phoenix, is nearly always easy. The roads are apt to be dusty; but there IS one well sprinkled drive of six or eight miles; and since the winds are quite regular in their direction, it is rarely difficult to choose 6 route or which the dust will be largely carried away from you. The unbroken desert itself is often as easy to drive over as an Eastern highway, and the whole valley is a paradise for bicyclers, or eques- trains.

RAIN

Showers, and indeed heavy rains are liable to occur in every month of the year; but the actual number of rains seems to an eastern visitor strangely small. ghe average rainfall in Southern Arizona, as shown by the Government observations, is but 11a inches per year.

ATTITUDES

It Is striking advantage offered by Arizona that, with the same general con- ditions as t5 temperature and dryness of air, the physician is able to select nearly any altitude be may desire. Thus, asth- matic sufferers can find almost the sea level at Yuma, or an altitwie of only a thousand feet at Phoenix, or of cnly 2,400 at Tucson. Others, who find DO objection to greater elevations, can choose between Prescott CT Fort Whipple. 5,400; Flag sta fl, 6,SO0.; the Sulphur Spring Valley, or Fort Grant, 4,200; Fort Huaohuca 4,60o, or Oracle, about 1, ,00G

Stole a Watch.

A young man giving the name OF
George Durham, claiming residence at
Faribault, was arrested by officer Carr
on Monday, charged with stealing a
silver watch from the person OF Knute
Sheridan, of Little Sank. On Satur-
day afternoon Sheridan fell asleep IN
the saloon of Vogler & Co., on Third
ST., and was laid to rest in an adjoin-
ing room, when he awoke he told OIL
GER Carr that he had been robbed OF
an old fashioned silver watch given to
him in Norway by his father, thirty
years ago. The bartender described
the only man who had been in the
room where Sheridan was asleep. Of
ficer Carr spotted the man at the Sank
Centre House, and calling him aside
asked him what he had in his pocket.
He said s'Do you think [ havesa re-
volver?" officer Carr told him he
didn't care anything about a revovler
he only wanted to know what time it
was. Durham said he had no watch.
Upon search the watch was found in
his hip pocket. He proffessed great
surprise and wondered how in thunder
that watch got into his pocket. He
was examined before Judge Wilcox
upon the charge of grand larceny in
the second degree, and was bound over
to the District Court. Officer Carr
took him to the county jail on Mon
day afternoon.

Was Not Opium.

Following up a straight tip on
Thursday afternoon, Chillingworth and
Vida went to the business house of XII
Chong at about 4 p M, armed with a
search warrant First they went up
stairs and then, coming down, search
ed about until they came to the safe.
Snugly tucked away under this were
two kerosene oil tins, each containing
what appeared to be hundred half
pound tins of opium. OF course, they
thought that they had struck bonan-
"a, and, while the frightened proprie-
tor was running about, all ruffed up
by the capture, the officers plugged
several of the tins. To their sorrow
they found only very thick black oil.
The tins were a very fine bogus lot
with Chinese characters on one side,
and on the other: VERY old opium,
prepared by the well-known firm of
Lai Yuen."
