Better Stick to Agriculture.

A few days ago there appeared in the Tucson Citizen a statement from Prof Blake of the University of Ari- zona, to the effect that the Arizona 'Eoil indicationS'' were not indications of oil. and that repeated tests of the black sandstone from the Texas Hill country did not show the presence of oil nor of any asphaltum, to which the coal black glossy color has teen as sumed to be due, etc."
 Now we do not propose to dispute with Professor Blake except to call at tention to the fact that practical men, men familiar with every detail of oil bearings and oil indications, men who have had both practical and theoreti- cal experience in the oil producing re- gions of California and Texas, have eX- amined the Texas Hill "oil rock" and pronounce it genuine-a certain indi- caticn. Surely these mems opinions should have some weight, and their judgment some consideration. Is it not barely possible shat Prof. Blake is mistaken?
 In this connection we will state that, notwithstanding Prof. Blake's discour- aging report, the company recently formed here, of which mention was made in this paper last week, will go right ahead with their plans, and it will not be so very lCng before they will commence boring. We are so in- formed by Mir. Ewing, who also says that thorough test will be made-if one hole does not disclose the presence of oil, another, and still another will be put own, until it is thoroughly dem- onstrated whether or not there is oil in the country.

A Sad Death.

Miss Josefa Preciado, aged 16 years, died at the residence of her sister. Mrs. Barrios, on Maiden Lane, this city, on Friday afternoon, August 9th. Miss Preciado few weeks since returned from attending school in San Diego. She was attacked with severe head ache, which became so violent that a physician was sent for, but before he could get there she was dead. She only lived four hours after being attacked. The deceased was sister of Julian Preciado, one of the unfortunates who perished in the Sanguinetti fire about two years ago. She was an estimable young lady, and her sudden death is sad in the extreme.

Contract Let.

The board of control have awarded the contract for the iron works for hunks or bedsteads for the territorial prison to the Standard Iron Works of this city. The amount of the contract is Sl ,355.j0. There were four other bidders. Two from Yuma and two from Los Angeles. The material will consist of 40 pieces of angle iron cut and punched ready to be set up at the prison. There will be 110 hunks, six in each cell. The hunks hitherto in use at the prison were of the most un- sanitary character. The supports were cast off boiler tubes surmounted by a framework of redwood, which had to be knocked to pieces and practically de- stroyed at every house cleaning Re publican.

Hundred Year Clubs

Are becoming numerous. The idea is to promote longevity. It is interesting to note that the means through which long life is to be obtained is food and the stofrach. Long life and good health are not possible unless the stomaah does it's work properly. There is a way to make it, if it does not. Bostet= tef's Stomach Bitters is an ideal strength restorer. If you would be cured of dyspepsia, indigestion, belch- ing, constipation, incomuia, nervous ness, bilioushess, try the Bitters. Ev- erybody should try it to help nature rid the blood of all impurities. It pos sesses valuable curative properties, and
 as specific fer malaria, fever and ague it is unequalled. Don't fail to give it a trial, but be sure you get the genuine.

A Fortunate Youth,

Every body in Phoenix will pleasant ly remember Roy Street, a nephew of Judge Street, who lived in this terri tory almost from babyhoCd. He was in the eighteenth legislature, one of the brightest pages and ore of the youngest pages an Arizona legislature has ever had. His friends here will also be glad to learn that he has be- come the victim of windfall. and they will also sympathize with him in the death of an aunt, Mrs. Thompson of Philadelphia, by which he has been left an income of 5000 year for life. And that is net all. The rest of her large estate, which gees to her two brothers, will revert to Roy Street if they have the bad luck to die before he does.-PhoeniX Republican.

Where Is My Honey?

The Tucson Citizen gets of the fol- lowing on PhOenician.
 A business man of Phoenix who makes occasional trips to Bisbee had his wife accompany him on recent visit to the copper camp. He is very fond of honey, and always stops at a leading cafe, where this much sought fer food was kept fer a special custom CT who paid literally fer good attention. On this occasion there was something lacking on the table. He had told his wife about the superior edibles they were to get in Bisbee. When he no- ticed the absence of his favorite dish he said: ''Waiter. where is my honey?' The waiter smiled as he answered: You mean the little blackhaired one? She doesn't work here any mOre."
