CALIFORNIA CATTLE.
The Stock Business on the Verge of kruptcy-Ruined by the
 DrOuth.

Colonel ". c. Land, the well known
 cattleman is spending the day in tEe city, says the Tucson Citizan. Colonel Land represents the Kern County Land & Cattle company of California and looks after the extensive interests of that company in COchise county where a number of large ranches are managed by him.
 The past year, said Colonel Land,
 "has been one Of extreme hardship among the cattlemen Of California The drouth has resulted in severe loss es to them, and the cattle business Tn that state is on the verge of bankrupt cy. Some of the small ranches have been completely broken up and the misfortune Of the cattlemen has brOk
 en into all channels of trade and left the state in 9 sore financial condition. At the present time there is not even enough for sheep. and that industry is also in bad way with no hope of j;-a- prOvement.
 T am not a pessimist,' continued Colonel Land, and l always try to look on the bright side of conditions, for the cattlemen or sheepmen thi.: year in California. They have had practically n0 rain, and feed is very scarce. At our ranch there, we have to feed ITO GOO head of cattle during the past season, feeding all the accum- ulated hay which we had put away, to alleviate just such a condition. We have not suffered, owing to this fore sight, as much as others, but with the shortage of feed which the new sea son brings, the continued drouth viii no doubt prove disastrous to our In- terests as well as other cattlemen.
 Here in Arizona we are more favcr- ed. We have had snow and rains, and feed is excellent. Our season does not really open until the first of July, and the indications point to a successful year in cattle feeding. People in cali fOrnia do not understand this contrast. They have come to look upon Arizona as barren waste, and they think be- cause it is dry in their state, it must be infinitely dryer here. The com parison, however, is that Of the desert to the alfalfa field The cattle inter- ests are better in Arizona than they have beeen for ten years. I do not Iook for any shipments of cattle from Cali fOrnia to Arizona owing to the great expense of such an undertaking, but I believe if our neighbors knew the true condition Of things they would bring their cattle here. and thus save them selves from absolute Tuin.'

"Si-lcnce!" he roared, and looked about him positively like a lion. Doe tor" he went on, in his usual tones, II was a-thinlling of that, knowing as how YOU had fancy for the boy. We're all humbly grateful for your kindness, and, as you see, puts faith in you, and takes the drugs down like that much grog And I take it I've found a way asll suit all. Hawkins, will you give mo your word of honor as young gentle man, for young gentleman you are, all though poor born-your word of honor not to slip your c2ble?"
 readily gave the pledge required.
 sThen, doctor" said Silver, you just step outside O that stcckGde, and once you're there, I'll bring the boy down on the inside and reckon you can yarn through the srcrs. Good-day to you, sir, and all cur dooties to the squire and Capn Snollett.''
 The explosion of tlisapproval, which nothing but Silvcr's black looks had restrained, broke out immediately the doctor had left the house. Silver was roundly accused of playing double-of trying to make a separate peace for himscif-of sacrificing the interests of his accon2plices and victims, and, in one word, of the identical, exact thing that he was doing. It seemed to me so obvi- ous, in this case, that l could not i'm agine how he was to turn their anger. But he was twice tine man the rcst.were, and lis last nights victory had given him a huge PreponGcrance on their minds. He called them all tho fools and dolts you can imagine, said it was necessary I should talk to the doctor. futtered the chart in their faces, asked them if they could afford to break the treaty the very day they were bound a-treasurc hunting.
 NO, by thuEder!" he cried, "It's us must break the treaty when the time comes; and till then I'll gamEnon-that doctor, if I have to ilc his boots with brandy

 Slow, lad, slow,' he said. ''zThey might round upon us in q twinkle of an eye. if we were seen to hurry.
 Very deliberately, then, did we ad vance across the sand to where the doctor waited us on the other side of the stocllade, and as soon as we were within easy speaking distance Silver stopped.
 You'll make a rote of this here, also, doctor,' says he, and the iboyn tell

ease of accidents. YOU mark, and m the meantime. once we got the ship and treasure both, and off to sea like jolly companions, why, then we'll talk MT. Hawkins over, we will, and well give him his share, to be sure, for all his kindness"
 It was no wonder the men were in good humor now. For my part, was horribly cast down. Should the scheme he had now sketched prove feasible, Sil- yer. already doubly a traitor, would not hesitate to adopt it. He had still foot in either camp, and there was no doubt he would prefer wealth and freedom with the pirates to a bare escape from hanging. which was the best he had to hope on our side.
 Nay. ard even. if things so fell out that he was forced to keep his faith with Dr. Liyesey, even then what dan ger lay before us! What q moment that would be when the suspicious Of his fol lowers turned to certainty, and he and I should have to fghF for dear life he, cripple. and I, 8 boy-against five strong and active seamen!
 Add to this double apprehension, the mystery that still hung over the be- havior Of my friends; their unexplained desertion Of the st0clladc; their inex- plcable ccssion of the chart; or. harder still to urdcrstapL, the doctors last warning to Silver: Look out for squalls when you find it." and you will readily believe how little taste l found in my breakfast. and with now uneasy a heart I set forth behind my captors- o,, tbo ,,17Cc4 for trp1 c11rn
 We made a curious figure had anyone been there to see us; all in soiled sailor clothes, and all but me lrmed to the teeth. Silver had two guns slurg about him. one before and one behind-besides the great cutlass at his waist, and a pistol in each pock ct of his square-tailed coat. To cornplete his strange appearance. Capt Flint sat perched upon his shoulder and Gabbled odds and ends of purposeless sea-taIll. I had q line about my waist, and fol- lowed obcdiently after the sea-cooll, who held the loose end of the rope, now in his free hand. now between his pow erful teeth For all the world 1 was led like a dancing bear.

THE TREASURE HUNT = FLINT'S
 POINTER.

THE TREASURE HUNT = FLINT'S l POINTER.
 "Jim," said Silver, when we were alone, ''if I saved your. fife, you saved mine; and I'll not forget it. I seen the l doctor waving you to run for it-with | the tail of my eye, I did; and seen you say no, as plain as hearing. Jim. that's one to you. This is the first g.int of hope I had since the attack failed, and I owe it you. And now, Jim, we're to go in fer this here treasure-hunting with sea ed crGcrs, too. and l don't like it; and you and me must stick close. back to back like, and well save our necl1s in spite O fate and fortune" Just then q man hailed US from the fire that breakfast was ready. and we were soon seated here and there about the sand over biscuit and fried junk. They had lighted q fire fit to roast an OK; and it was now grown so hot that they could only approach it from the windward, and even there not without precaution In the same 9vasteful spir- it, they had cooked, I suppose, three limos more than we could eat; and one of them, with an empty laugh threw what was left into the fire. which bIazed
  I never in my life saw mer. so careless of the morrow; hand to mouth is the only word that can describe their way of doing; and what with wasted food and sleeping sertries. though theywere bold enough for brush and be done with it, I could see their entire untitncss for anything like a prolonged cam paign.
 Even Silver. eating away. with Capt. Flint upon his shoulder. had rot word of blame for their recklessness. And this the more surprised me, for I thought he had never shown himself so cunning as he did then.
 'Ay, mates,'' said he, its lucky you have Barbecue to think for you with this here head. l got what 1 wanted. I did. Sure enough, they have the ship. Where they have it. don't know yet; but once we hit the treasure, we'll have to jump about and find out. And then, mates. us that has the boats, 1 reckon, has the upper hand"
 Thus he kept running on, with his mouth full of the hot bacon; thus he restored their hcpeand confidence, and, I more than suspect, repaired his own at the same time.
 As for hostage" he continued. that's his last talk, guess, with them he loves so dear. I've got my piece O news, and thanky to him for that; but it's over and done. I'll take him in q line when we go treasure-h ting, for we'll keep him like so much gold, in

work. what task it was to gather a

them, transport them and make camps
for them. To transport $4,000 of them
to points 10000 miles away, fight battles

her dock early Sunday evening. At mid
night last night the maritime lookout at
Sandy Hook reported that furious gale
was coming out of the northwest and
that there was no cessation in the heavy

so thick that if any of the large fleet of
passenger liners or other ocean steamers
now several days overdue had succeeded
in crawling up to an anchorage near the
bar they could not have been made out.
