dormir en- uno de esos cuartos.
FL edificio de la carcel es de dos

A Cruz Diaz desde que 10 tenian

le permitia que fuera a hacer sus

Segun habia acostumbrado los

tarde, entire las 6 y las Z, dijo al
carcelero, Andres Lopez, que que.

formerly the capital. Its elevation being more than double that of Phoenix, it is somewhat cooler, and as there Is nexG to Io irrigation near it, the air is little drier. Phoenix is the centre of the greatest irriga- tion in the Territory. The country for miles around smiles with green fields, cover ed with almost countless herds of cattle, and it is everywhere shut in by low mount aims. It is the Territorial capital, has the Government Indian School, the Territorial Lunatic Asylum, and other institutions, and is the general focus for the Territory. Like Tucson, it has its occasional wind and sand storms-perhaps not quite so often. At either place visitors who know how to adapt themselves to circumstances can be entirely comfortable, and in each they will find an intelligent, orderly, enterprising and most hospitable community. They will find country full of mines, full of rich agricultural lands, abounding in cattle and horses, in vineyards and orchards and the beginnings of very successful orange groves "a country, in fact, as full of promise fol

March Sl 1s degrees and Al degrees and April ssL degrees and 46 degrees. The nights throughout the winter are apt to be cool enough for open wood fires, and for blaukets. Half the time an Overcoat is not needed during the day. but 1t is never prudent for stranger to be without one at hand.
 The atmosphere is singularly clear, tonl' and dry. l have never seen 1t clearer anywhere in the world. It seems to have about the same bracing and collaborating qualities as the air of the Great Sahara II Northern Africa, or of the deserts abou Mount Sinai, in Arabia Petraea. It Ii much drier than Tn the parts of Morocco Algiers or Tunis usually visited, and drle than any part of the Valley of the Nil north of the First Cataract. It seems t me about the same in quality as the air ol the Nile between Assouan and Wady Halfa, but somewhat cooler.

Its Attractions and Advantages as a
 Place of Residence in Winter.

Whitelaw Reid. owner and editor of the New York Tribune, who has spent the last two wlnt CTS in Arizona for the benefit of his health, writes entertainingly and in structively concerning that part of the country. Mir. Reid says:
 So many questions are asked about Ari- zona as place for winter residence, and there appears to be such a dearth of pre- else information among many who are vitaIly interested, that it seems almost a public duty, to set down, ill the simplest form, few facts of personal observation.
 WEATHER.
 During five months residence in Southern Arizona in winter there was but one day when the weather made it actually unpleasant for me to take exercise in the open air at some time or other during the day. Of course there were good many days which weather observer would de- scribe as "cloudy," and some that were "sllowcry; but during these five months (from No, ember, 1895, to May, lS96,) there were only four days when we did not have brilliant sunshine at some time dur- ing the day. Even more than Egypt, any where north of Luxor, Arizona is the laud of sunshine. As to details:
 TEMPERATURE.
 1 have seen the thermometer mark 92 degrees in the shade oD my north piazza in March. On the other hand, we had trosts which killed young orange trees, and there were several nights when thin ice formed. The government reports show a mean temperature for fourteen years at the pres. ent territorial capital of 57A degrees in November, s degrees in December, 49 de- grses ia January. St degrees :.

beverage. Experiments with the raisin-grape have shown tLai this climate and soil possess every advantage for the production and curing of this staple article of commerce.
 "Besides the fruits already mentioned, the angs, le1ncn, Nnre, oiiye, fig, poEegrnnate, and others of the citrus family, can Dc grown success fully in the valleys of Southern Arizona Orange trees now in bearing in the Salt River valley | and at Yuma while the bananas is also being cul- tivated at the latter place The Arizona orange in quality and flavor will compare favorably with the l best California.
 "In the valleys of the Colorado, the Salt and the Gila rivers, there is for thousands. It is not teo much to say that nowhere within the limits of this broad Union can be found more desirable l region for the making of 8 home. No laborious clearing of the land is required: 1t lies almost | ready for the blow. Trees and shrubbery have so rapid growth that within eighteen months the immigrant can surround his abode with attractions
 which would require years to matura in less favored climates. Fruits ripen and are ready for market full month b. fore the California product. The bright sunshine makes life luxury, and the pure dry atmosphere brings health to all who inhale It.
 For the establishment of colonies such as we have made of Southern California arden, Arizonc
 presents unrivaed opportunities Thousands o
 acres, now proftless, can be made productive
 by construction of irrigatng ditches and ther, is no investment which assures larger or nor, permanent returns"

WHY IMMIGRANTS SHOULD COME TO YUMA COUNTY.
 Because the climate is perfect.
 Because the soil is fertile and prolific.
 Because land is abundant and cheap.
 Because home can be made with little labor.
 Because so great variety of products can be grown.
 Because the yield is large and the prices always remunerative
 Because life is luxury in land where the sun shines every day. Because th,Te are chances for a poor man which he can never hope to find in older countries.
 Because the country is advancing and property values are increasing.
 Because, unlike Southern California it does not require small fortune to secure a piece of land.
 Because capital does not block all the av- enues to wealth, nor crowd the poor man to the wall.
 Because Uncle Sam has yet many farms in Yuma county waiting for occupants. Because churches, schools, newspapers and railroads are fast developing the moral and material elements of the Territory. Because good land is becoming scarce, and if you don't catch on now, your last chance will soon be gone.
 Because the country is one of the few regions of the Uuited States that yields the products of the temperate and semi-tropic zones. Because the worker receives a fair com pensation for his labor, and the 'rustler' has field for the display of his energy and en- terprise. Because there are neither blizzards er tornadoes, earthquakes nor inundations, snow-storms nor cyclones. Because the vast and varied resources ei the country are yet to be developed.
 Because the wealth of it's mines, its farm ing valleys, and grazing lands, will yet build up great and prosperous county. Because man can make livelihood her. with less labor than in any other part of the United States. Because there is health in every breeze, and strength and vigor under it's eloudlesS skies.
 Because the settler need not spend life time in felling trees and grubbing cut stumps.
 Because vegetation is so rapid that in two vearu the Acrle ia s,i;r--3u17;dc5 hJ I e-ow4ti

WHICH TOWN IS THe BEST?

Primarily that is question for the phy- sician, if there is physician in the case if not, try them all. If a mountain region,
 considerable altitude and comparatively low temperature is desired, Prescott is in a picturesque region, near great mining districts, and has the social advaRtags of an army post, whipple Barracks. az staff IS still higher, is in region of 1se pine forests, and is within 2, hard .y's journey of one of the wonders of the Id, the Colorado Canyon Oracle is a F .tty mountain nook, powered in splendid live oaks, like ! ,se of California, and is also near an Aportant mining district
 If lower altitude and distinctly semi tropical climate are desired, the three places most likely to be considered are Yuma, Tucson and Phoenix. The first is near the soa level; is the warlnest and probably the driest of the three, has the least population, and the smallest provision for visitors. Tucson is the oldest town in the Territory and, after Santa Fe, perhaps the oldest ill the Southwest. Its adobe houses give it a Mexican look, and are thoroughly comfort able. Its newer houses are of handsome building stone. found in the vicinity. The Territorial University is tere. api ii wa

He will 6nd as man. churches as in towns of corresponding size in Pennsylvania pr Ohio; and probably more schoolhouses.

During my winter there did not see single disturbance in the streets. or half dozen drunken men, all told. Min ing men and an occasional cowboy certainly had quarrels, sometimes, in the disorderly quarters at night; and there were stories of the use of the knife among Mexicans; but the visitor who went about his own business had as little trouble as on Board l way or Chestnut street. The Pima and Maricopa Indians, who are encountered everywhere. have been friendly with the whites for generations, and there isn't an Apache within some hundreds of miles.

IS IT APLACE FIT TO LIVE IN?

This depends on what one expects in a huge, parsely settled Territory of mount aims and deserts. The man who looks for either the beauty or the seductive excite little will he find the historic remains or the cosmopolitan attractions of Egypt; nor could he reasonable expect the amusements and luxuries of our own Eastern cities. The
 people of Arizona are still chiefly bssy in the pioneer work of subduing it to the
 residence and uses of civilized man. But it has two transcontinental lines of railw ay
 with numerous feeders; it has fast mails, and rival telegraph lines, and is throbbing
 with the intense life of the splendid West The two principal towns in the south ern portion, chiefly sought for their climatic advantages, are Phoenix and Tucson. Each of them has ten thousand inhabitants or
 more. They have the electric light, tele-

ACTUAL HUMIDITY.

This is extren ely slight, everywhere in Arizona, as compared with any eastern climate in the United States. The air is driest on the high mesas, remote from snowclad mountains or forests, and in the desert valleys, where no considerable irri- gation has been begun. Wherever irriga- tion is carried on on large scale, the percentage of humidity ill the atmosphere must be somewhat increased, although to an eastern visitor it is scarcely perceptible. The same Government observations al ready cited show relative humidity, at Phoenix or Tucson, averaged for weeks, from morning and evening readings, at less than half the usual humidity on dry da5 in New York. General Greedy, in a pub lication from the Weather Bureau, gave the normal weight of aqueous vapor in the Arizona air aS from l1S to 4 grains per cubic foot.

streams, among Vne inoSI Pio"iin0' N vhieh are the San Pedro, Agua Fria, Has sayampa and Salt rivers. It flows west through Yuma County and empties into the Colorado at the town of Yuma.
 Yuma county, traversed by these great rivers from its northern to its southern, and from its eastern to its western bound aries, possesses a far greater water supply Shau any ether county in the Territory, and far more than can be found in all Cali Fernia
 This water is now being diverted from it's natural channels by means ot numerous large irrigating canals, and utilized for the zurpose of reclaiming and irrigsting the immense tracts of lands which lie in this favored country, and which arc as fertile as any in the world.
 The Southern Pacific Railroad crosses the Colorado river at the town of Yuma and uns through the county, following the senerol course, and at an average distance of ahout four miles south, of the Gila river, rendering all the lands susceptible of irri- cation and cultivation, can lind an easy outlet in this way and can be transported osu the markets and centers of population in the East or West.
