Last week Mr.. M. F. Hine, OF
Franklin, lost, at the depot of this
place, a very pretty jewels breach
with diamond and opal settings.
After returning to Franklin and
discovering his lost, he called up
this office by telephone and re
quested US to publish a "Lost"
advertisement for the pin. We
Ipubli.h the card in the last issue
of the IBERIAN.
Edward Mettzs, a colored man,
read the advertisement and prompt
" reported to this office that he
had found a pin somewhat answer
ling the description as publish and
asked for a more complete indentl-
fcation of the jewel. This was
provided, which fully identified the
article and satisfied him that MI.
Hine was the rightful owner,
when he turned it over to us fol
the owner. Mettzs is an honest
man and deserves great praise fol
his honorable and straight forwart
course.
This affair also shows what a

The Phoenix Republican says: 1.-The visit of the California news paper men to Yuma and the I'm perial Land company's holdings under the big ditch just con- pleted will mean much for that enterprising little city. We know of no locality in America-and our knowledge is not confined to Arizona-that offers better or more promising opportunities for securing a home and making money than along the Colorado river bottoms. The land is as fertile as rich sediment and de- composed vegetable matter can make it. There is always ah abundance of water. There are 360 days of sunshine in each year. What more could be de- sired? The Republican predicts a bright and prosperous future for our seaport town"

DON'T WANT IT.
Yuma, April 13, 1901.

A New York newspaper syndi- cate offered to furnish the Half moon Bay Gal. Advocate for a valuable equivalent, with a con- plete description of the wedding trosseau of Miss Elsie French, who was married in New York the other day to young Wander bilt. The Advocates editor gets back at them in this way:
 "We don't want it. It's none of our business what kind of under clothes Miss Elsie wears, or whether they are cut on the bias or ornamented with scallops or trimmed with lace. We wouldn't go across the street to see them, unless-well, unless we were the fellow who is going to. marry Miss Elsie, and in that event our native bashfulness would insist that it be a post-mortem-beg pardon, post-nuptial- inspection Even then, we shamefully con fess that our interest in the gar ments themselves would be hyp- ocritical.

and west line south of Key West, Florida, and about 3,725 miles south of our most northern limit at Point Barrow. In longitude the Manila lighthouse is 120 de- grees east of Greenwich, Eng land distant from Greenwich go ing east from that point, about S.4G0 miles. The distance from Portland, Maine, also travelling eastward, is 190degrees minute, about 13,32O miles. But if we shall journey westward from Portland, Maine, the distance would be only TO degrees, or about 11,85O miles to Manila. From San Francisco to Manila is close to 8,2OO miles. This you perceive places Manila in north and south line 170 degrees, about 11,S50 miles west of Portland, Maine, which is our furtherest point of longitude east.

THE COCOPAH r1AIDEN.

Professor McGee of the Smith sonian Institute, Washington, D. C., writing in the Washington Star of Cocopah Indian customs, with which he is we'll acquainted, has the following in regard to a most peculiar ceremony which every Cocopah maiden must go through when about to take a husband:
 "When a Cocopah girl is ready to take a husband a hole is dug in the ground and in it is built fire, kept burning until the sur rounding earth is thoroughly warmed. The fire is then extin- guished and the bride-elect placed in the pit. She is buried to her neck and in this condition is left standing until morning. After being dug out the next morning she is supposed to be ready for the duties and trials of matrimony. This would seem to be a reasonable supposition."

Small farms planted to fruit and we'll titled will pay many times the amount per acre that large farms will, and be less trouble; make a more beautiful country and sustain a much larg- CT population-all to the infinite advantage of the landowners accrued profits, not from large farms but from the thoroughness with which small acres may be titled. It costs lots of money to thoroughly till large acres-more than the average rancher can command.

The Tucson Citizen has at last changed hands-and politics, and comes to the fore as a rock ribbed democratic exponent and opinion -moulder. For nearly thirty five years the Citizen has been published as a republican paper, and this radical change will doubtless strike it's republi can readers a pretty stiff jolt below the political belt. The new editor of the Citizen, Col. O'Brien Moore, is a writer of un usual force and ability, and is we'll known throughout the country. The business manager, J. H. Behan, is one of the old timers of Arizona, and is the father of Under Sheriff Albert Behan of this county.
 Herbert Brown, the retiring owner, has published the Citizen over twenty years and has al- ways made it a good, reliable re- publican paper; but his duties as prison superintendent prevent ed his giving the paper his per sonal attention, so he concluded to dispose of it. The purchase price is said to have been $7, ,000.

Again we repeat what we have so often expressed in these col umns, that it is our firm belief that Yuma county will in the not distant future take a position in the front rank among the pros porous sections of the Pacific coast. And we believe also that there are no better opportunities anywhere for the investment of capital than this country offers today. Our agricultural, horti- cultural and mineral resources are marvelously rich, and the capital which shall be employed m their development will be re- Warded a hundred fold.

What All Know, but Few Realize

To get an idea of the geo. graphical extent of our country, one must look up the degrees of latitude and of longitude that are included within it's boundary lines.
 In the United States proper and in this is included the Loui- siana purchase of 1903, and also the Florida purchase of 1819- our highest point of north lati- tude is the northern boundary line of North Dakota, in 49 north latitude. Within the same boun- diaries our most southern point is at Key West, Florida, in lati- tude 24 degrees and 32 minutes north. This gives us nearly 9 degrees, about 1,725 miles, in a north and south line.
 Now, in the matter of 'longi- tude, within the aforesaid boun- daries, we find that our most eastern point of longitude to be in the vicinity of Portland, Maine, in longitude 70 degrees and one minute west of Green wich, about 4,89O miles west of that initial point, The point furtherest west of Portland is near to Astoria, Oregon, which is 123 degrees and 3 minutes west of Greenwich, a distance of 6, 800 miles. The difference, then, be- tween Portland, Maine, and As toria, Oregon, is of course exact ly the difference between 70 de- grees minute, and 123 degrees 8 minutes, being 53 degrees and ? minutes. This would give an extreme breadth between these two points of 3,65O miles.
 We will now include Alaska and see what may be the extent of our area. Point Barrow is our most northern limit and is in latitude T degrees 2 minutes north, whilst our most southern point is Key West, Florida, in latitude 24 degrees and 32 min utes north; the difference be- tween the two points being 45 degrees 8 minutes, about 3,125 miles in a north and south line.
 In the matter of longitude Point Barrow, Alaska, is 156 de- grees 1 minute west of Green wich and is exactly 85 degrees , minutes west of portland, Maine, distance of 5, 945 miles west ot that place. However, the Ha- waian Islands are about 100 miles further west than is Point Bar row.
 We will now 'annex" the Philippine Islands and sec where we stand in the matter et latitude and longitude. The lat, itude of Manila is II degrees B minutes north. This places Ma nile about S75 miles on an east
