Fifty miles 70 the southwest OF Tucson,

abruptly from The pain ard points like
finger toward the sky Here and there
its sides are pltted with caverns, and al
together its appearance is SO weird that
it is no wonder the Papago Indians Of the

1t is called Rattesnake Rock, because the
Ancient of all the Rattlesnakes makes his
home inside of it. This fact is known posi-
lively, because he has been seen many
times. The butte is a sacred place, and
nobody ventures near il under ordinary
circumstances; but candidates for aborigi-
mai diplomas as medicine men sleep by
il over night, after fasting for a long
time, and the big serpent comes out and
! leads them into the rock where, in an
immense hollow chamber, all sorts of po-
tent things such as snakes skins, birds
claws, etc. are hung up. The uses Of
these for magical and curative purposes

after regarded by his people as graduated

On to Porto Rico.

Wednesday.--The Porto Rican
expedition is under way, with
General Miles in the lead, Troops
are being ordered forward, and a
speedy campaign, with American
victories, is looked for i the
course of a few days.
The Spanish general of the
Philippine Islands will not enter
tain propositions of surrender, but
declares that he will fight to q
finish. The insurgents daily
threaten the bombardment of
Manila, and unless peaceful terms
are arrived at in few days, they
cannot be restrained much longer.
Chances for peace grow DINNER
each day. Spain shows no incl.
nation to come to American terms.
Spaniards in the surrendered ter
ritory who have not yet laid down
their arms, are said to be burning
lighthouses and committing other
unlawful deeds.
The yellow fever situation at
Santiago is not as bad as has been
reported.

ring the first part of the week alb
normally cool weather prevailed
which had a tendency to check
the growth of corn and cotton
especially the latter, but this was
followed by warm, showery
weather, with good rains from the
18th to the 10Th, which not only
restored conditions but gave an
impetus to the growth of vegeta-
ton which promises good results
as to the development of these
crops in the preliminary stages of
maturity. Corn, except in a few
localities where the rainfall has
been light and insufficient, is in
fine state of growth; the crop has
been we'll worked and is clean
and in fine condition for the com.
ing period of ripening. Cotton
suffered from the cool weather
and is not fruiting well, as a rule;
crops are generally clean. Ex-
cessive rains in the northern por-
ton of the state-especially in the
tobacco regions-have damaged
the prospects Of that crop to some
extent. The week generally was
unfavorable for threshing wheat,
and this work was greatly hinder.
ed, resulting in possibly damage
to that portion of the crops still
in the shock; the yields, thus far,
are generally satisfactory. Oats
are turning out rather light, es.
pecially in the eastern section.
The second crop of Irish potatoes
is beginning to grow off well, also
late millet and peas, of which
there Is a large acreage planted.
The week was unfavorable for
haying. Sweet potatoes and gar.
den vegetables are in fine condit'
ion. Breaking lands for fall seed
ings is in progress. Grass
hoppers are reported damaging
clover, corn and cotton in Henry
county, and chinch bugs are mum.
