 There is an actual volcano in the south end Of the Wallapi mountains. Colonel Latin and his mate, George De France, saw it come to a head. They were sitting at their campfire Sunday evening smoking their cob pipes and sacklng their gold dust, when a loud report was borne on the night breeze, and, turning their eyes toward the small peaks of the Walla- pals, fire was seen to shoot several hundred feet into the air from @ tall peak. and streaks of red fire trickled down the mountain side, The Colonel nameI che outbreak "Dewey.' The smoke and Ivid light can easily be seen from kingman.-Hinsral Ieoitb.
 The Sun goes out Of it7 orbit 10 remark that: "It is almost certain that secret movement is on foot among several of Yuma's property holders to defeat the election of bonds to build a new school house." Not at all, brother, every man who is opposed to the election ot school bonds Is out spoken in his beliefs and can give good and sufficient reasons for his cOnvic- tions. Can as much be said for the promoters of the scheme? If there is any "secret" work being done the manipulators of the bond issue certain ly have a hand in it, the opponents have no object ill being "secret" or silent. All will admit that Yuma needs better school facilities and needs them badly, but she has no more use for two school buildings than the devil has for a lawyer. Four thousand dollars, just one-third of the proposed bond issue, would be sufficient to improve the present property equal to or better than the new building. The secret movements" of the bond mani pulators will drop with loud and sudden thud on the second day Of July. The taxpayers of the district do not care to pay interest on twelve thou sand dollars for the purpose of main tainiug q suburban brickyard.
 MT. Mayhew, proprietor of Arizona's only alligator, returned last Sunday from Phoenix where he has had his pet on exhibition for the edi6cahon ot the pumpkin rollers of the Salt River valley. The "ciamon" looks very gauut md accs as though he lsue or ig had that tired feeling. evidently caused ly the inferior class of dogs on which the reptile was compelled to subsist while in the capital city. The dogs here, principally Chihuahuas, are more palatable and better adapted to the delicate digestion ot the timid reptile. As soon as the "ciamon" gains strength enough to stand the trip it will be taken to Santa Monica and placed on exhibition. MT. Abner Lincoln Webber has secured a mammoth Gila monster which he has added to the show, and by little judiciousa advertising they to pick up about all the loose cash on the Pacific coast this summer.
 Bo." says the Gila monster is almost as large as the alligator, and eats eight dollars worth of eggs every day. The firm will soon be bankrupt unless the can be induced to adopt the diet of the alligator. The only reason the show does not start for the coast at once is because, as "Bo" says, the is growing at the rate of three inches per day. The expedition will leave as soon as the hideous reptile of the Gila attains the size of his darker complected companion of the Colorado.
