INDIAN APATHY TO FISH.

At the meeting in Baltimore of the American Folklore Society Dr. Washington Mathews of Washington D. C., read paper on ''Icthyophobia," |" which he described as an antipathy to fish. This aversion is especially strong in the Navajo, Apache and other In- dian tribes of the far Southwest, who will not eat fish nor have anything to do with articles made in the shape of fish. This taboo" with the Navajos extends to all things connected with water A probable reason why no more children of these tribes are sent east to be educated, Dr. Mathews thinks, was fear that they might de required to overcome this cherished taboo" superstition, which is as firmly rooted as any region
 A legend to account for this fish "ta- boo" was given. There was a time when food was scarce and the noun tain Indians had a big pow-wow with the river Indians The result was that the river Indians agreed to kill no deer, but to live entirely on fish, and the mountain Indians agreed to eat no fish, but live entirely upon deer. This made plenty for both.
 In the discussion of the paper it was stated that Zuni Indians vii lnot eat fish because savage tribes in desert lands regard water as sacred because

THE s. F. P. & P. RAILWAY.
Another Prosperous Year That is
 Greater Than Any Preceding.

The year 1898 promises to be good one with the s. F. P. & P. railway. There is every reason to believe this as will be noted from that which is recited below.
 All hands from the office people at Prescott to the lowest paid emp1oye have been kept busy, particularly dur ing the past forty days. This is but the beginning of the era of prosperity and if those interested in Arizona will give less attention to the KlOndyke and Yaqui countries and concentrate their energies right here at home they will, with the cooperation of the s. F.rP. & P., reap their reward. It is the sticktoativeness way of doing things that will bring about good re- suits. Keep your eye on The Repub- 1ican-every page of it-and profit thereby.
 Bids for the grading and building of the Big Bug branch, or officially, the Prescott and Eastern railroad, of the s. F. P. & P. will be accepted up to February 15 and on March 1st the work will begin on this important feeder. The route of this branch will begin beyond the Point of Rocks about six miles north of Prescott at what is known as Granite station. From the time, it may be stated, the s. F. P. & P. road was completed from Ash Fork to Prescott this station was the SUD- ply point of the United Verde Copper company of Jerome to and from the north and south road. In November, 1894, the United Verde and Pacific railway was opened from Jerome Junction to Jerome and Granite sta tion was discontinued. From the vii cinity of the old Granite station the rails will be laid along Lonesome val ley, past HudsOn's ranch, below the Chapparal country about three miles. The road goes on to the divide, two miles below Boggs's ranch on the Big Bug. This divide it crosses and fol- lows the Big Bug past the Commercial Milling company's works and a short distance further on reaches the termi- nal point at Mayors, or the onyx fields. The grade is comparatively cent, and the curves will be nominal in the length of the road.
 Important stations will be estab- lished in the vicinity of Hudson's ranch and below Boggs's, where the east side of the divide is reached and before meeting the Big Bug creek Ranches in the wake of the road on its first twenty miles from Point of Rocks, will blossom out and become 1ders tc>tne branch. The Chapparal "Ili feed from the Little Jessie, Nc Cabe and other mines yet to be de- veloped. Big Bug has three good operating mines, and there is one be- tween the creek and Chapparal.
 The onyx fields and mines not far removed will ship, and to the south west is the Crowned King and GIadia- tor, future shippers over the branch. Mines being developed will take on new life from the moment the first spadeful of dirt is lifted Supplies go- ing into the various camps will con stitttte the traffic from the S. F. P. &

THE VALLEYS VISITORS.
Each Year Adds to the Popularity of
 the Valley of Sunshine.

How many tourists are there in the valley?' was the question asked yes terday by a Republican reporter of the hotel men, railroad men and Oth- CTS who are in position to give a guess bordering on accuracy. There is nc source for authentic information in the valley outside of these agencies and they make no effort to get a cen sus of the winter visitors. At the chamber of commerce there is a reg 1ster, but few people care to place their autographs there. Other means night be adopted by the chamber which would give the people an idea Of the number of guests we entertain each winter, even if a census has to be taken each year.
 It Is natural thing to compare one year with another in making up figures on the winters tourist popula- ton. Some men will tell you that the streets are not as crowded this year as they were last winter, and others will tell you that there are more flor rent" signs hanging out this winter. But these men do not get out into the suburbs of the city and see the number of new houses that have sprung up since last winter. and the greatly increased accommo- dations for housing guests than the city previously possessed. Then the class of visitors must be taken into consideration, for this changes every year. Last year we had White law Reid and a number of other prom inent customers, and perhaps more wealthy visitors than ever before. This year the visiting population is made up of both classes, but with more less well-to-do people. They are in larg measure health seekers, and if you want to find them you must take a trip into the country. Every ranch has one or two, and some ranches have as many as a dozen. They are scattered everywhere over the valley. Some of them never come to the city. and if you make up your figures on the number of people you see on the streets you will be far from the cor rect number of visitors in the valley.
 Of last years guests a large number stayed in the valley during the sum- mer and they are still here. Then there are those who came the year before and are now counted among the residents of the valley. It is the new conner we want to count Hotel men will tell you that there are a great

AN ARIZONA DITCH COMPANY
Proposed to Reclaim a Large Tract of
 Land Near WinslOw.

John H. Walker, of Santa Fe. who is very competent and successful en- gineer and surveyor and who has been doing government surveying work for the past five years, has gone to Win slow, A. T. where he has accepted a position as engineer with the Home and Preside Irrigation and Land com pany. This corporation has an option on abont 50,000 acres of land belong ing to the Atlantic & Pacific railroad land grant in the vicinity of Winslow It is proposed to convey water from Hay lake, about thirty-seven miles from Wins1ow, to the latter town, fur nish water for irrigation to the lands mentioned and the public lands along the route of the ditches and canals to be constructed and also erect a system of modern water works for the Win slow town supply. The New Mexican says there are some Santa Fe people interested in the scheme, as we'll as some Minneapolis capitalists, who, it is expected, will furnish the necessary capital. E. H. Bergman and L. E.. Merrill, and also ex-Banker S. M. Fol som, are in the scheme, which is said to be feasible and is expected to turn out profitably to all concerned. MT. Walker is now on the ground and has commenced the necessary survey work for the location of dams and ditch lines.
Arizona republican., 1898-02-12

P. main line Added to the above will be the passenger traffic which is sure to be large. New capital will come in and avenues to labor will be opened. Keep your eye on the Big Bug branch.
 The United Verde Copper company will increase it's output of copper bull lion from three to four million pounds , monthly. and there will be an increase of trade the other way-to Jerome, incidentally. Down will come lumber from the big Coconino county saw mills and the increased volume of mercantile goods and machinery for old and new mines. Congress will be doing better, and the Stanton district will look up and so will Wickenburg. Of the prospective outfit at Peoria, a big thing to that locality, mention will be made later. Phoenix will receive a benefit, likewise the valleyl; in fact much of Arizona will feel the effect in 1898 of the improvements on the S. F. P. & P. tributary thereto. Keep your eye on Phoenix and the valley, the S.
 F. P. & F., towns thereon and the min ing camps that feed the road.
