who believe II possible TO take the water flowing
through the sewers and cleanse It 50 thoroughly as

Indefinitely" 1t Is true that, having IN mind the
scientific possibility OF doing this. suggested the
possibility Of something Of that sort being done
Hundred years hence never proposed It seriously.
What have done Is to demonstrate. from ample
English experience that the difficulty with the
Brooklyn water supply is not insuffciency but
waste also demonstrated the fact that with the

of with some freighter or had been bitten by a rattle snake and died. Saturday he started down the river to see if he could sell his crop of al- falfa to the people at the Mammoth Mine, and while passing through very heavy piece of timber just south of the Mormon Settlement, he was greatly startled to see his faithful deg sitting under tree intenliy watching a big mountain lion. He rode up, dismounted from his bronco, spoke to the dog and receiving no sign of recognition, upon closer examination, discovered that the dog had and was completely dried up. He climbed up the tree, and found that the lion was in the same condi- tion. He pushed the lion oil into the river and then climbed down and kicked the dog in after him, remonnt- ed and started on his journey. He had gone but a few steps when he heard terrible splashing in the river and upon riding up to the bank dis covered that the water had soaked up the lion and the dog, and they were both making for the opposite bank, the dog close to the lions tail and bowling like burro in May. The lion climbed the first tree he came to and down the dog sat again, determin- ed DO to lose sight of the lion. Sah called and whistled but all to no avail and at last was forced to resume his journey, for the river was wide and deep and he was afraid to cross. He is now mourning the loss of his dog but is offering to bet 400 cows that thet dog is still watching the lion and soon will be as dry as ever.

BENseN, Sept. p 1897.

BENSON, SepIs zz lSSl-
 Sam Katzenstein who lives on the Santa Cruz river over in Pima county has had, until lately one of the most sagacious and intelligent dogs that ever stole bacon or sucked eggs. This dog was trail hound of the purest tyne, and when Sam had day of and wanted to have little sport for him. self, and the amusement of any of his numerous friends who chanced to be stopping with him, he used to take him out and put him on the trail Of a mountain lion, and the dog would never let up till he treed the brute or run him to earth. In this way he trained the dog to hunt nothing but mountain lions, and when he got one treed he would never leave until Sam came and killed it,
 The mountain lions that live in the mountains near Benson are the big gest towards on earth; they won't fight little bit, unless it is female who is afraid for her whelps. Usually when one is treed and the first shot don't kill it, it will set up a cry just like child and will not offer any resistance whatever, but because of their colt and calf killing proclivities they are the deadly enemy of the stock man and the natives usually catch them by the tail when they get treed and beat their brains out on a stump.
 Las tfall Sam with his dog run one into hole in the rocks up in the Santa Catalinas back of Benson. Having forgotten to bring ohis gun i. with him that morning, he was at loss how to kill 1t until discovering 8 large cactus growing near he broke of limb and climbing up into the lions den, when the brute opened his mouth to spit at him he poked the stick down his throat and killed him. fa s.
