The Cattle situation :.

"The situation in the cattle market seems to be something like this says the National Proyisioner "Desira- ble cattle are scarce. Prices have been good for some time and cattle men have been sending all their avail able stock to market. Ready money has been in demand and but few choice calves have been raised. In consequence of this young beeves are particularly hard to get. It seems reasonable to expect that the good prices that DOW obtain will hold good for some time. Many cattle men think, and it is believed there are good reasons for their SO doing, that there will be an usually large demand from Europe for American beeyes this year The cattle countries of the far East are short Of desirable stock and Europe must depend largely upon this country for It's fresh meat. The demand will probably exceed the supply, under present conditions, and in that event prices will, of course, go higher. Altogether, the outlook for the cattle business is very favorable y Bradstreets.

Charged With stealing Calves.

Monday Cattle Inspector W. H. Walker of Calabasas, came into Noga- les and swore cut warrant for the arrest of Juan Trujillo on charge of stealing calves. Sunday evening the son of MT George Atkinson and man working on the Atkinson ranche found calf tied to a tree iD Pet cailon They reported the matter to Mir. Walker, wnn went out to investi- gate. He found he calf tied up as reported. and he also found Trujillo there with another calf, unbranded, but with it's ear freshly cut, which he recognized as one Of tue Hereford stock owned by Colin Cameron. Walker made Trujillo turn the calves loose. and followed him home to see that he did not go back and catch the calves again. The next morning MT. Walker returned to the place where the calves were turned loose, took their trail and followed it until he found the white faced calf with it's mother. Hereford COW with the Cameron brand, and the calf was sucking conclusive proof that the calf belonged to tbat COW. Coming into Nogales with he witnesses the matter was presented to Justice Fay Tor. who issued the necessary war rant, and an officer was sent to make the arrest. The accused was brought in. and examination under the charge was continued to Thursday, on which day Judge Taylor conducted the ex- animation. A a result the accused was held to appear before the grand jury on two charges, marking and stealing cattle, in bonds of $500 on each. Defendants attorney asked a reduction of the bail, to which Col. Harlow, who appeared for the dis trict attorney, readily consented, asking, however, that the committing magistrate scrutinize closely the re- liability Of the bondsmen accepted.

Rich Mining rrnprrtlr..

Forty.tive miles east uf tie railroad, over good rnad from Ortiz station, PiO QuintO Mureno has recently de- nounced some very promising mining properties, and last week he received from the City Of Mexico his de- nouncement papers, yesting the title in him. The properties denounced include ffty-four pertenencias of ground through which run three quartz ledges. One ledge, running north and south is twenty feet in width, and the ore assays g., s4 90 and $500 per ton in free gold. The other two ledges run east and west, are ten to twenty feet in width, and the ores assay g.. 90 to S3.O0 per ton. The sur rounding ground all over the noun tains is rich in placer gold which will yield thirty to ninety cents per cubic yard The locality is three miles east from the Agua Caliente Grande, in the Yaqui mountains.
 Mr' Moreno is negotiating with two different parties to handle or buy the properties, and there are now on the ground experts who are making a thorough examination. Mr. w. Green Campbell and Doctor B. B.. Grover from Colorado Springs, are ex- porting one group Of thirty pertenen- cias, and MT Longley of Indianapolis has deal on another group of twen- ty-tnur perleuencias, upon which he k to do goo feet of work. It is anti cipated that the work provided for will result in rich developments. for the Yaqui Indians, with rude ap- pliances, have long worked in this ground, and very successfully. getting out many nuggets weighing from fifty cents to seven dollars each. MT Moreno has been ten years waiting to get this ground, and has been finally successful in his efforts.

sam T. Goode.

Crittenden and vicinity has met with a great loss in the death of MT. Sam T. Goode who passed away early Tuesday morning September 18th, af- ter brief illness from peritonitis. MT. GoOde had been in this part Of the country many years and was very we'll known, especially in the Har- shaw district, where he had mining interests. He was born in Virginia in 1855, came west iu 1870 and was nearly 43 years old at the time of his death. He was recognized by all who knew him as man of strict in- tegrity and high sense of honor. He was generous to fault and would take the coat of his back to give to anyone in need. He never married, but lived with his parents, to whose welfare he gave himself up with rare devotion. In fact, he may be said to have lived for his family. He was one Of the men who while making no pro- fession Of Christianity had more of that spirit of sef-sacrifice which is the essence of Christianity than most protesting Christians.

OLD METHODS THE BEST.

Work Of Pupils In Public School CnaGF
Two Systsms Compared.
From the New York Evening Post:
In the opinion o. Professor Richard c.
Schiedt of Franklin and Marshall coli
lege, nothing has been gained. but
something lost. in the abandonment Of
the old methods in public schools OF
alternate study and recitation periods.
and of brief recess during each school
session. This view was expressed in q
paper read before q meeting in Lam
caster, Pa, Of the Associated Heath
Authorities. The paper was scientific
and described psychological expert
ments undertaken by Professor
Schiedt and others to determine the
fatigue of pupils under different condi-
lions. Passing the experiments. and
coming to the professors conclusions.
it appeared that under the Herbartian
method Of instruction. which provides
for alternate recitation and study pc
RODS, and does away with home work,
the power OF mental endurance exhib-
tied by the children was practically
without limit when the atmospheric
conditions were favorable IN the re-
suits the depressing or elevatinx infiu-
ence of the atmosphere had an impOr-
tant bearing. A partial remedy is the
session recess, affording opportunity
for physical exercises in the open air
and for a complete change in the at
mosphere Of the schoolroom. This 10
the more important, Professor Schiedt
says, as in this region the days with
unfavorable atmospheric conditions
are in the majority.

MILITARY EXPEDITION.

1t was on the first day of May that
Admiral Dewey destroyed the Spanish
ships and defences in Manila bay.
Twenty-four days later the first detach-
ment of troops sent to re-enfo-ce him
sailed from San Francisco.
There have been some expressions
of impatience because of this delay, and
also because more troops were not sent.
But those who criticise the government
on this account can have little idea Of
the difficulties involved in sending
large military expedition such a dis
lance.
From San Francisco to Manila is
about seven thousand miles. The voy-
age, under favorable conditions. takes
about four weeks. Ships had to be
chartered and made ready il haste. to
convey not the troops only. but their
weapons. field artillery as we'll as rifles,
horses and their subsistence, tents,
bedding, hospital stores and niscel-
laneous equipments, together with
