Inc New Prescott.

The new Prescott with its long streets of buildings constructed Of brick, ornamental native stone and na- tive granite is already exciting the wonder and admiration Of eastern wis itorsa class of visitors who have here tofora been charmed with Prescott's beautiful natural location, her best all the year round climate in America and hersurrouud'ng mineral zone, the most varied and one Oi the richest in the world but who remarked on the unsta- ble and shanty-liko appearance of the town, giving the impression to visitors that the citizens had come here for a short time to r6cuperate health in a peerless climate or to fatten their pock- etbooks in @ wonderfully rich mineral zone; and it really is a fact that south ern California, as well as some of the Arizona cities south of Prescott, have been built up largely by money made in Prescott or from the grand mines tributary thereto ltis also 8 fact that many who have lived here for years have been compelled to do so for the very reason that they can live ih no other climate. When they go away to spend their Prescott earned money they get sick and have to come back to eli mate pronounced the best known for all pulmonary troubles As long as Prescott was largely shanty town it was perfectly reasonable that men should desire to build their homes in more up-to-date cities; itwas perfectly reasonable that men of means should come here to gather the riches of our mines and then use the money in buiid- ing homes in some other more up-to- date city; but now, that, Prescott is re ally the gem of the mineral bearing mountains, the modern city that the mining hub of the southwest should be, with her public water works, sewer system graded and electrically lighted streets and every modern convenience, no man will hesitate to locate here, to build his home here, and certain it is that new era has dawned in the his tory of the town, by which it will be pushed forward by the sheer force of gravity created by it's own improve ments, which will draw more and more investment. Let the outside world visit Prescott and be convinced of the whole truth of what is said. We. have railroad connection with both transcor- tinental lines of railway. We have in halt days travel of Prescott almost any variety of climate desired and that at any season of the year, that of Prescott being happy medium. be- tween the extreme heat and cold of other sections. Hence, if you seek mining investments, a salubrious eli. mate, beautiful scenery and a modern city, all located at one and the same point, come to Prescott. This is the place you have been looking for, To see is to believe, Come and see. Cou- riel,

Water Supply for Pima Indians.


 WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.-The secre- tary of the interior says in his report:
 The matter of 6 proper water supply for the Pima Indians on the Gila reser- yatiQA in; Arizona has received, much. attenti6h. When the lands around.the reservation were sparsely settled the Indians could obtain a sufficient supply of water to irrigate enough of the res eryation to raise crops for their sup ! port As the country settled up the water in the river was appropriated by the settlers above the reservation, so that during the last few years the river has been almost dry during the irriga- ton season,
 i :, Proper lega proceedings ta stop the { diversion of water from the Indians have been taken; they are, however only entitled to so much of the waters of the river as they have been accus- toned to use, and this amount it has been found impossible to determine,
 The result of an investigation of the water supply, made under the direction of the Geological survey, showed that there was no method of obtaining sufficient supply of water except by tho construction of dam and reservoir at some point on the river above the reservation,
 The estimation for the entire work, including damages for right of way and diversion dam at the head of the Florence canal, was $l,033, 92G. The reservoir is estimated to be of sufficient capacity to irrigate loo, GOO acres in ad- dition to the lands of the Indians. As the valuation of aPersonal water right is not less. than BIO an acre in Arizona, the value of the lands reclaimed, in addition to,the Indian lands, would be equal to the proposed appropriation,
 During the last session of congress a | bill to authorize the construction of reservoir near San Carlos to provide water for irrigating Sacaton reserva- tion and for other purposes was intro duced and favorably reported upon by the department but failed to become 9 law. An appropriation, however, was made of S30, 600 for the temporary sup port of the Indians of the Pima agency. Steps were immediately taken to ascer- tain the destitutiol of the Indians.
 Temporary aid has been afforded them and seeds for planting, to enable them to supply crops next season. have been furnished; and means for supply ing water for irrigating 8 part of the lands Of the reservation are now under consideration,
 These Indians have heretofore been self,supporting, and if provided with sufficient water supply can without doabt support themselves in comfort with no pecuniary assistance from the government; otherwise it is likely that appropriations for their support must be continued indefinitely.

Feeding and Marketing Swine.

milk and a ration of corn. the latter

system by letting them run in patch
of peas. When corn gets to the roast
ing stage begin feeding a limited
amount of it-stalks and all. / say
limited amount, because while corn is
in the milk and Is excellent feed and
is relished by the pigs it takes consid-
cradle of it to go a little ways, and
considerable amount of shorts, and old
corn, shelled and soaked in order to
soften it should be given. Until the
new corn reaches the dough stage, a
limited quantity of green corn in the
milk stage is given as an appetizer
and also as tending to accustom the
system gradually to the new corn
While the fattening process depends
on corn in ears, feeders should remem-
Der that swine cannot thrive and do
their best on one feed exclusively or
on one feed for any length OF time.
In regard to the best age to put
swine on the market. certain condI-
lions must determine. II your pigs are

question that IL the greatest profit Is

the market as soon as possible after

they should be got TO that weight a.

last year and in many parts OF the
state 1t will be smaller by 10 to rs per
cent Corn is little late but in ex-
cellent condition In most sections. Po-
tato reports are also good for the most
part though drought has shortened the
crop, especially of early varieties In
some counties. Moisture is now abund-
ant and late varieties are likely to
improve.
MINNESOTA.
Moisture is still deficient in few
counties in Minnesota but in the ma
jority there is sufficient amount for
the present needs of growing crops
and more would interfere with the
harvesting Of grain. One-third of the
reports indicate that the condition OF
spring wheat is good though the yield
will fall considerably below that OF
last year. The other two-thirds pro-
nounce condition fair to poor. III Far
ibault, Freedom, Watonwan, Wa
basha and Rock counties the yield
will be about the same as last year.
In Houston, Wabasha, Chippewa ana
Pope counties it will be about 20 per
cent less than last year; in Goodhue,
Brown, Kandiyohi, Clay, Nicollet and
Steele, the crop will be about two
thirds that of last year; in Dakota, LIE
Sueur, Rice, Kanabec, Olmstead, Ram
sey, Becker Wright, Winona, and
Benton counties It will be about so per
cent of last years; in Morrison, Wa
dena, Wilkin, Marshall, and Sibley
counties the crop will be about one
third that of last year. These reports
indicate yield for the state of some
thing more than so per cent of the av-
erage.
The condition of oats in most local
tiles is poor and the promised yields
range from one-third to two-thirds of
the average crop.
With few exceptions the condition
of corn is fair to good.
The condition of potatoes is only
fair.
SOUTH DAKOTA.
The quality of South Dakota wheat
appears to be fair to good and in some
localities the crop will nearly equal
that of last year, but in many other To-
calities it will be so per cent below the
average. The condition of oats is fair
to poor and yields light. The condi-
ton of potatoes is fair to good with
prospects of fair crop. Corn is a
little late but in fair to good condi-
ton.

early on the fourth morning, and was
still more uneasy at hearing that there
was no news of the steames He
haunted the quay all the next day,
rather to the detriment of his work,
and at night he could not sleep.
Thoughts of Veronica's fears and suf-
ferings obtruded themselves. He
blamed himself for leaving her, FOR
not having returned to fetch her, al
though he could not we'll have LETT.
She had always hated the water and
feared it, and he had loved 1t. The
next day he was down at the quay
again, trying to get some information
about the steamer. In little while
not he alone, but the owners OF the
boat, began to get frightened. They
could get no news. No other boat
seemed to have seen anything of her.
By and by there were stories of some
of the wreckage of a steamer being
washed ashore, and at the end of a
fortnight the haggard man who spent
his days at the quay looking out for
the boat which would never return to
the town had to give up.all hope. The
steamer had assuredly gone down, and
all hands with it; and Veronica, his
wife, was lost with the others!
And so ended this brief little episode.
Alan had been very happy with his
gentle wife, and South America was
loathsome to him now. He began to
long, with a longing that had been
stified during his brief married life by
the drawing out Of other parts of his
nature, for England and things Eng
fish. The white, clear moonlight, the
scent of the tropical flowers, the soft,
dark eyes and liquid accents Of the
Spanish women, the songs they sang,
the very guitars they played, remind
ed him Of his poor Veronica, now ly-
ing fathoms deep under the restless
sea.
But as she had never stirred the
passionate depth of his nature, so her
death never drew out passionate grief.
He felt lonely, that was all; and the
glowing land, where everything was so
DeduIlIul anu yet occulcu oo CPhCh
eral, became distasteful to him, so he
gladly accepted Richard Dempster's
offer to manage the export part of his
business in London, and to return to
English shores.
In a short time his South American
experiences almost faded out of his
mind. Veronica became sweet MEM
DRY to him, which moonlight nights
freshened. He was very successful in
his work, and in four years time had
gained good position for himself. He
was ambitious, too, and began reading
for the bar, which he found he could
do together with his work for the firm.
And four years after he left South
America saw him respected and much
made of as any young man of twenty
six might be who is beginning to be
known as a man who may become i'm
portant.

Minneapolis, Minn., Oct. Charles
r. Baxter, formerly well known
IS an attorney In Minneapolis, but for
the past four years in South America,
returned to this city yesterday. Mr..
Baxter has spent the greater part Of the
four years in Venezuela and the United
States of Columbia He has been con.
nected with the Oronoco company, limi-
ted. the Organization OF which his bro-
ther Judge George F. Baxter and, Donald
Grant Of Faribault are prominent officers.
The company named had secured a grant
Of 15, ,OOO, 600 acres from the Venezuelan
government 1t was announced recently
that that concession had been annulled.
Regarding this statement Mr.. Baxter
says:
'.The concession will certainly hold.
The new president, Castro. announced
that this and other similar grants would
be annulled. That was to be by virtue
Of the revolution. The supreme court
will hold against this proposition. The
property includes much mineral land and
is very valuable
Mr.. Baxter says Venezuela is rich
country, in its natural resources, and
with reasonable stability in the govern
ment would be great and prosperous.
The supreme court in determining upon
this question Of grants, declared that
the country would have to be peaceable'
otherwise the right sort Of people-1mell
Of energy brains and capital-would not
go there.
Mr.. Baxter says the South American re-
publics have far greater respect for the
United States since the Spanish war than
ever before.

Georgetown, Ky, Oct. 1.-THE Yout-
sey trial was resumed yesterday al
though Youtsey was reported in the
same condition as last week. His room
door was opened and his bed pulled
up in plain view and hearing Of the
jury, and while the witnesses We're
being examined Youtsey could be
heard calling his wife's name In
hollow, moaning voice, and could be
seen to be sitting on his bed. a
OF course the feature of the day
was the testimony of Arthur Goebel,
the brother Of the murdered man. He
told of going to the jail the day Yout-
sey was arrested and this is what he
claims Youtsey said:
II had talk with Dick Coombs on
Monday morning and he told me that
he was ready to do the shooting. and
went to Caleb Powers for the key
to his Office, and he told me to go to
John Powers. went to John Pow
ers and John Powers gave me the
key. went to Gov. Taylor and I
told Gov. Taylor that Dick Coombs
was ready to do the shooting. Gov.
Taylor said: You ought not come to
me about this. I have been expect
ing this to be done for some time, but
object to having negro do it. 1t Is
too important a piece Of work.
Coonbs may be spy and he may
betray u.s. g.a
"Gov. Taylor walked up and down
the floor and said: 'Youtsey, what
do you think? II Goebel is killed do
you think could hold my of1ce?' He
discussed the matter, to me back and
forth, and L said to him that thought
IL Goebel was put out Of the way
that the contest would be settled and
that he could hold his Office. Finally
said to him, as Gov. Taylor hesitated
still, 1t is up to you to decide now
finally whether it is to be done or not
and after some more hesitating Tay-
lor said, finally: Well, tell them to
go ahead. If it is necessary I can
send the man to the mountains with
squad of soldiers"
said: did he say anything about
pardoning him?" and Youtsey said:
Eyes, that is SO. He said IL it is nee
essary can pardon him and he will
be safe enough" Youtsey then
stopped and asked: 'what did you
do then? You told Col. Campbell, as
he told me, that you let certain people
into Powers Office" Youtsey said:
when I went back Berry Howard
and Dick Coombs and Jim Howard
were in the hall and I unlocked the
door and let them in and gave them
the cartridges"
