everything in order for a large crop.
Some few have already finished

Vegetation and pot plants were also
destroyed.

cold. Mercury registered degrees
above zero, the coolest weather ever
experienced in this section, so the
oldest settlers claim.

THE SULTAN'S GIFTS.

On the seventh day of the month of Schawwal, in the year 1254 of the
 Hegira-Which is the Arabian way
 of writing December 25, 1839-the
 Sultan of Oman, whose name was Seyyid Saood, Bin Sultan Bin Ahmed, addressed a gracious letter to 'His Excellency, Martin Van
 Buren, President of the United States of North America" ," in which he informed the President that he had sent him by the Royal ship ''Sultanee" few trifles as token of friendship and good feeling These trifles consisted of two Ara bian horses and their groom one bottle of altar of roses, two pieces of gold, five demijohns of rose water, one Persian carpet, one gold ornament with silk tassel, four eameps-hair shawls, one gold mounted sword, two large pearls, string of one hundred and fifty pearls, one gold plate, one bottle of diamonds, one gold snuf.box stud ded with preclous stones, and one 
 box of mixed pearls and diamonds. Under the constitution, the Pres ident is prohibited from accepting personal gift from any foreign State or Power, and as the Sultan's gifts had arrived in New York and the Commander ofthe "Sultanee" would not leave the country without pres enting his masters offerings, an embarrassing complication was the outcome. The matter was finally referred to Congress, and after three
 months of correspondence, red tape, diplomacy and legislation the Sul- tan's Christmas presents were final 1 lp accepted; and then the President was put to the troub! of selling the horses, the shayls and the rose water, while Uncle Sam was given the further trouble of finding suitable place to store the remain ing gifts, and was afterward put to great expense in capturing tie thief who carried off the entire collection in bag and only caught after a long chase,-July Lqdies' Nome TotunqI

 The striking and important events of the last year have established the overw helming value of the THRICE-A- WEEK WORLD to every reader. For an almost nominal sum 1t has kept it's subscribers informed of the pro- gress of all our wars and, moreover, has reported them as promptly and fully as if it were a daily. With onr interests still extending throughout the world, with our troops operating in the Philippines, and the great pres ident'al campaign, too, at hand, it's value is further increased.
 The motto of the THRICE-A-WEEK WORLD is improvement. It strives each year to be better, than 1t was the year before, and public confidence in it is shown by the fact that 1t now circulates more than twice as many papers every week as any other news paper, not daily, published i'll America.

 "Jist back from old Kaintuck. ," Now, why is it? It is because of the broad gauge, generous character of the people. If two men should stop and talk for one minute on the streets of New Orleans, they would be slung in for twenty-five days If you had a hundred dollars and wished to deposit it in a New York bank, you would have to furnish reference and identification to do so. If you stroll through an East ern park you are notified to not walk on the grass, nor touch the flowers, nor lounge on the seats, nor stand still, nor stoop over, nor walk too fast, nor do anything that a normal Arizonan wants to do. Why, if man in an Eastern city should appear on the street or at lunch with his coat off, he would be, socially, morally and commer- cially, ostraclsed to the end of his days and then buried in the potter's
 field. None of these infamous re- gulations obtain Tn Aliz99nnaa. So we learn to love her for her grand liberty and freedom of person atone for all her faults; and we love Ari- zona, we love the cactus as we'll as the cabbage, the desert as well as the oasis. We love the noble hearted old boys and the growing children; we love the true, golden hearted womanhood of Arizona; we even get to like the dogs and bur- ros, for while they are nuisance, they illustrate the principle ofin. comparable freedom which abounds beneath the Arizona sky, and that is why the boys all "wander back again" back from Texas, from Mis- souri, from Ohio, from Kansas, from Klondike, from everywhere, back to the land where the human sonl is as broad as the desert and the human heart as generous as sun light.-GIobe Times.

THE COCHANOS.

SAN DIEGO, June 23.-Several days ago I read in IHe Times about new lIght-draught steamboat for the navigation of the Colorado river, being gotten out at San Pedro and shipped by rall, "knocked down" to Yuma, where it is to be put to- gether. The name of the boat was given as tLe "Cuchan," in the article referred to.
 The next day I made & call on Capt. George A. Johnson, who is now hugging the lee shores of eighty pretty closely. The captain re- sides at "Old Town," and was the commander of the old General Jessup," the first boat to ply the waters of the muddy Colorado in 1856, carrying supplies fer the diff ferent army postsin Arizona. Capt. Johnson says the proper name of the boat is CochanO, which is the tribal name of the Yuma Indians.
 "But how did they come to be called the Yumas?" asked.
 Easily enough" replied the cap tain. Ut was the result of custom.
 The Cochano Indians, when they saw signs ol anyone approaching from the East, would send out two or three swift-footed runners as spies. If there were only a few men in the advancing party, they took little notice of it, but If there was a large body approaching, they 1t S-s f re of dry stuff and then piled on a lot of green boughs to r,ffaa r,fakk kke 2 dense column of smoke, to warn the Indians on the river of the approach of large body of men. AS 'Humo' is the Spanish word for smoke, the Mexicans give them the name of 'Oomas,' which speedily became corrupted into Yumas. So you see that, as the American soldiers, in crossing the plains from Texas and New Mexico, invariably employed Mexican guides, they asked them what tribe of Indians they would next meet, after leaving the Pimas behind, and the guides invariably answered the 'Oomas,' or smoke Indians" Capt Johnson, in 1869, had a wagon contract for hauling freight inland from the river, and took an Indian of tue Yuma tribe for his guide. His name was Pas cual, and when they met the In dlans on the upper waters of the river, the latter invariably address sed the guide as "Cochano," not knowing his given name And 'Cochano," therefore, and not "Cuchan," will be the correct name of the light draft boat for the navi- gation of the Colorado.
 Old a resident of the State as I am, and 1 landed here from a Pana- ma steamer in January, 1853-I find Capt. Johnson always full of new information concerning the early history of this part of the State, which To man knows better than he. To sit down and talk with him, seems like opening an old book whose covers are worn with the lapse of time, but which has still pleasant story to tell. Misfortune has stripped Capt. John son of all his we'll earned wealth, but it has not abated the geniality of his manner or the cordiality with which he welcomes an old friend. Capt. Johnson was the first Repub- Iican elected from Southern Cali fornia to the Legislature in 1863, and he was again chosen in 1865, at which session Hon. Phineas Banning of Los Angeles first took his seat as Senator. Anything you don't know about this country prior to 1860, just ask Capt. Johnson, and he will give it to you as straight as any book could tell it.-HIDALGo, in l.. 4. Times.
