and there an ironWood tree, or a paIo verde. A similar plain in southern California was, by irrigation, converted into the fruitful citrus belt, where are located the prosperous towns of Riv- eTside, Redlands and Pomona. Water may do the same thing for this section, ncSy so deserted that there was no liv ing thing in sight except once two COWS were spied in the distance. In the sol iIude the great cacti looked like giant babo-ns stupidly stretching their clumsy arms upward. Away to the right of us, the sky line of the noun tain wall sloped gradually to the level of the plain; some distance behind the slope rose another wall as defiant as the first, but we passed round the point of the first and through the wide pass between the two walls, gained the plain on, the south side of the noun tain without an appreciable depart ure from the level of the road. In a word. we crossed the mountain with out climbing.
 Presently came in sight the little Catholic mission church and day school, and as we came nearer We found quite a settlement Of little, squarc, earth-roofed houses which in the distance lad bean hardly distinguishable from the near CT brush. Here too, We saw several kies or d1mc-shaped, earth h-built houses, with a single arched opening which served for a door. In all thesa Indian houses the openings looked to the east. The early legends of these

 It was nearing noon, and now in the road before US were several wagons carrying church-2oers to the little chapel which We hoped to reach before the days services had begun. Softly out of the distance before us, came the inviting call of its bell and ten minutes later we drove into the mis- sion enclosure and were cordially greeted by Mrs. Wyncoop and invited into their home where five young men, their Indian helpers, had met to talk over the Sunday School lesson of the day. When the second bell rang, all went into the chapel and one of the yj5ung men conducted the opening ex- eroises of the Sunday School; another played the organ that stood on the platform beside the pulpit, the rest were seated behind him and led the singing. Most, if not all these young men had attended school and could speak English well. The church holds about two hundred and fifty and. for Sunday School and preaching every seat was taken and chairs were brought from the parsonage for us. The congregation was reverent and attentive and the singing, if not the most melodious imaginable, was yet so imbued with ths spirit of worship that surely the sweetest incense that ever rose from costliest censer was not more acceptable to the great Fa- ther of all. We felt it was good to be there for truly God was in the place.
 After the service many Of the In dians came up tO shake hands with us; their spirit was kindly; So was ours. but words between Us were few.

A VISIT TO THE PIMA REsERVA-
 TTON

At Gila crossing, fifteen or sixteen miles south of Phoenix, is little mis- sion church, built hy the Presbyterian mission board. Thts church we plan ned to visit on the first Sunday in De- cember, and accordingly Sat out at twenty minutes to nine, with an h. dian boy to drive US who knew the way and would meet friends and relatives there. The morning was balmy and bright and We relied along over the familiar three mile stretch of road to Phoenix, simply reveling in the glori- ous sunshine, and dslighting in the cloudless blue of the sky. The rains of a fortnight ago We knew had swelled Salt river, which ran another thrse miles beyond the city, and we felt lit tie concern lest our boy might not know the safest place to ford it, for no bridge spans it's two miles width. As we neared it's banks the alis- tening that we saw over acres before us was not the slanc- ing of the sun upon the ripplinS waters of a free flowing stream, but the reflection of its rays from tin cans and broken bottles, attestinS the hun ger and thirst of a civilized popuia- tion. As if to carry you away from such unsightlness, the road here ac- cepts the screen of friendly bushes and slopes down into the bed of the river, which we crossed as did the IsraeIites of old, the Red sea-dry shOd. The vol
 ume Of water which had so suddenly filled the channel not long before, had already quite disappeared, leaving not trickle to refresh the sight. And yet one of our party called to mind that few years ago this same river, sud Genly swelled with heavy rains, hal spread it's waters even to the outskirts of Phoenix, nearly three miles beyond it's proper banks.
 Soon after leaving the river behind We found ourselves or the desert which stretched away to the foot of the noun tains, standing a steep, forbidding and ! impossible barrier before us. Our road lay over this level plain O. sand. tufted with punches of sage brush or an cIcca- sional bush of grease wood, with here

AN EXPERTS OPINION.

Professor N. s. Shaler, of Harvard university, southern man who has made a special scientific study of the condition of the negroes in the south, gives no favor to the pessimistic opin- ions that come from that section. He thinks that the moral and intellectual condition of the negroes is improvirS, and so far as social morals are coil cerned, he regards he negro as, on th ? whole, less dangerous than whites pf a like social scale.

Il was said by amembero Of the foreign

ing exists between the United States
and Great Britain under which this gov
eminent 0 proceed with the Nicaragua

since the negotiations for the abrogation
of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty failed and
since the agitation for the construction
Of the canal has been taken
up in congress a discussion has taken
place between the two governments and
that Great Britain has given this coun-
try assurances that it need not let the
convention of 1850 stand in the way Of
action.
1t has been known for a year that
Great Britain was willing to abrogate
the convention on condition that she re-
ceive concessions in the Alaskan boun-
diary controversy, and it is possible if
she has made the concession attributed
to her she has coupled it with the un-
~derstanding that her rights elsewhere
will receive consideration in return for
this action.

Census DirectOH Nerriam's suggestions
Bring Reports and Inquiries.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The efforts
which Governor Merriam, director Of
the census, is making to induce farmers
to prepare statements of their opera
tons for the calendar year 1899, so that
they will be ready to reply definitely
and accurately to the enumcrator's
questions next June, are bearing fruit.
Some farmers have forwarded COPIES
OF statements to the census office, &C.
companied by inquiries as to their COM.
pleteness and correctness. The first and
one OF the best of these statements came
from a woman who operates a farm in
Pennsylvania on her own account. The
paper shows not only the acreage, guam
tity and value Of each crop, but contains
also a good inventory of live stock, and
a detailed statement Of the quantity and
value OF the miscellaneous articles pro.
duced.
1t every farmer would initiate this
woman, the agricultural report Of the
Twelfth census would be a marvel of
completeness and accuracy, and would
also show the entire productive strength
Of the United States in food products.

Some Of the Chicago papers are much
elated over the success of Sunday clos
ing IN that city. They find there was no
appreciate amount OF suffering caused
by it and that It's success has demon.
strated that the open store on the first
day of the week commonly called Sun
day is as needless as it is oppressive
The most startling thing about it is that
the business men OF Chicago and the
people generally had not known or
found out long & how good a thing it
was to keep the Lords day holy. The
question naturally arises, "where and
how have the people Of Chicago been
brought up:" As the Record saws:
After the proofs already presented Of
the practicabillty of Sunday closing
there ought to be no further question
about it,
