HOW DIFFERENT.

A dispatch dated at Wyoming, April Is, says: "A fierce bliz- gard has been raging here for the past eighteen hours. The loss of live stock IS immense, extend ing thoughout eastern Wyoming, western Nebraska and South Dakota.
 At the same tune here in Yuma the balmy breath ofspring carried the fragrant perfume of the oleander and the rose through the air: the delicious warmth of the sun was perfect: the songs of the birds were wait ed in heavenly melody among the green foliage of the lemon and orange trees, and all nature seemed in tuneful harmony. And this is no pipe dream.

The mining law has been changed so that lOcatOrS are re quired to put up only seven mon uments, three at each end of a claim and one at the discovery shaft. The claim can be record ed as soon as located, but the location work can be performed at any time during ninety days after the location has been made. This is a code bill that may not take effect till the first day Ot September, as majority of the new code laws do not go into effect until that date.

The Los Angeles Herald says :: elf plans now under way do not miscarry, Arizona will be given seaport within a short time, and the opening of a navigable waterway from Yuma to the head of the Gulf of California will be great step toward the develop ment of the extreme southwest.
 "For several years the project of widening and deepening the lower end of the Colorado river and making a ship canal to the gulf, has been discussed, but until recently has not assumed tangible form because of lack of capital for the immense undertak- ing. It is said that the Southern Pacific company is supporting the scheme as 8 part of it's big plan of controlling the whole traffic in the western part of Mexico and Lower California.
 "The discoveries of exceeding rich mineral lands in Central and Western Sonora, Mex, and the rapid development of fruit and agricultural industries, particu- larly on the west coast, promises the most valuable kind of busi- ness to the promoters of transit facilities, which will give those districts access to the markets. Not only k that part of McEico

to be considered coming factor in business, but constant and re- curing finds of gold, copper, lead and silver in the peninsula of Lower California, an integral part of the Mexican republic lead to the belief among experts that the overcoming of the almost in accessibility of that region will show up the wealthiest mining countries in the world. Placer mining in its crudest form has been conducted by the natives in the mountains which, doubtless, are very rich.
 On the main line the Southern Pacific has a blanch reaching to Guaymas in the west coast, but there is a vast territory from GuaymaS north to the ArlzOna line which has neither rail nor water connections with a market for its products.
 By a line of steamers in op- eration between both the east coast of Lower California and the west coast of Mexico proper, and either Guaymas or Yuma lhe Southern Pacific would have d key to all the traffic of those sections of value.

Fort Yuma. April 24. 1901. Supervisor Holland of the US. h. dian department. from Washington. D. C.. dropped in at the school quite un- expectedly Tuesday morning. Business here will possibly make him most welcome guest for at least fortnight. Mr. Frank l.. Sullivan of Lawrence. Kansas. recently appointed government carpenter, arrived at the school on the 18th. A reception in his honor was rendered him tn the folldwing Monday evening. The evening was pleasantly spent in playing various games. The most enjoyable feature to the Kansans present (whO carried off all the prizes was the "Carrie Nation contest Mr. Sullivan won first prize-a bouquet of flowers the consolation prize was awarded to Mr. Carr and Miss Ran son. the prize being a large. well-tilled bottle labeled "Cognac'', and when the guests requested to be treated, the bot tie was found to contain cold tea. A couple of youths from Ohio taking in the sights of the west strOlled up near our quarters and inquired if there were any boys from Ohio here. ''Are you speaking of employes?" ''We are from Ohio and wanted to meet some of the soldiers from cur state if there are any stationed here. " Their surprise was quite evident when informed that the military fort had been abandoned some twenty years ago. and that this was L. 5. Indian school.

Main Body.

Washington, May so.The instruc-
tions issued by Gen. Chaffee under
direction of the war department in
regard to the protection of the Amer
lean legation at Peking after the de-
parture of the United States troops
from China have been made public
at the department. They designate
company B, of the Ninth infantry
as the legation guard and Maj. E. B
Robertson, of that regiment, is de-
tailed as commander. Maj. Robert
sons attention is especially invited
to the fact that the troops under
his command are stationed in for.
eign country with which the United
States is on terms of friendship
The guard must therefore not be
used aggressively unless in defense
Of the American legation or persons
and property OF American citizens in
it's immediate vicinity. The guard
will repel attacks made by Chinese
on the American legation or it's own
position and if necessary to do so
may fire upon the assailants. It may
cooperate with other foreign troops
for the defense of the legations in
event of attack being made on the
same by any Chinese forces.
