 cattle ranch on the north and on tue south side of the San Pedro river. Some time ago drilling was started and it was not until few days ago that a continuous flow was found. A party of farmers immediately came to Tucson and located large tracts of land where the water was found. Wilbur Ahell made homestead entry upon the west half of the southeast quarter Of section eighteen, and the west half of the southwest quarter of section seventeen, in township eight cen south ahi twenty-one east, which is the particular portion of land where the discovery Of artesan water was made. Harry M Eckerman located some land in section eighteen also, and it is expected that there will be considerable Of rush for land in that portion since the strike was made. Nh doubt this is but the beginning Of the rapid development of that coun- try as other wells will probably be sunk and more land located and dew eluped. IL is described as good agricultural country.
 Star: A government hospital near Tt. Huachuca as an experimental con- sum tive sanitarium Is liable to crys- talize into a fact. This means an ad- vertisement of Arizona's climatic values for pulmonary troubles, which is good for the health seeker as well as Arizona.
 Prospector; Dr. A. Nj. Green was in today from Ramsey Canon The doctor is one of the local officers Of the Arizona Sanitarlnm O. who have recently incorporated and established themseves at Ramsey Ca1on, in the Huachuca mountains, mention of which has been made in the Prospect or. The doctor states it is the inten- ton of the company to erect d num- Der of small cottages on their beauti- ful site and make the place the most attractive in the west.
 Prospector: A young man who was a guest at one of our social functions lately and who considers himself "the whole thing" way saying goodbye. It is the invariable custom for the de- parting one to seek out the hostess and grin at her as he tells her that he has had a perfectly delightful time, and has enjoyed himself SD much. Young Mir. B. was g0ing through the ceremony of bidding the hostess good night. He was full "t pretty compiments-was MT. B -. Really, YOu know, 1 have enjoyed myself this evening It's been charming party everything SD ,ly and informal, don't you know l declare when l al { md one of your parties don't realize I'm in society at all doesn't seem like society, don't you know" Then he wondered all the way home why she had given him that Klondike stare.
 Prospector. Charles McHenry. q former well known T0mbstoner, ar rived today on a visit to his old stamping grounds and is being greeted by all his old Tombstone friends. MT. M,IIenry still uses crutches from an accident lac sustained in Butte. Mont. some time since when he broke his leg.
 The Prospect0r's Fort Huachuca correspondent says: c. A. Douglass, our resent beef contractor, will be a bidder again for the coming year.
