soil. and it is one continual slide. When
the cut was first made wells in Lacey
had thirty feet of water In them. After
the cut was commenced they all went
dry, and now, with the bottom of cut
away below any well in town, people
have twenty feet of water that can be
used for drinking purposes. The cut
itself is rather more like a lake than
else, and the water is as
clear as crystal. There is no way of
draining the cut, 1t seems, far as soon
as drains are commenced the water
seeps in from below and the banks
cave in. The greatest trouble the
company has had is the forcing UP,
from the bottom, of the ground where
the track has stood. The earth has
had the appearance of being disturbed
internally, and heaves up from the
bottom, warping the track all out OF
shape. There is no way to get around
the cut without going great distance,
and the company is going to stay by
1t until the natural conditions can be
overcome, II that is possible. 1t has
been very expensive piece of work.

GET TRAINS THRU.

The first train that was able to get

slide of Sunday afternoon occurred
was No..3 the north bound passenger
Tuesday afternoon. Traffic is agaln
resumed and all freights are being run
over the line. No. l this morning came
nearer being on time than for many
weeks, and 1t is thought that the track
is in better shape than for some Tune
at this particular spot.
The road department did not attempt
to take away the immense amount OF
dirt that fell in the slide, for that would
have been an endless task. 1t is es-
fell, for the track for $50 feet or more
was covered under between five and sly
feet of dirt. Instead of putting on
shovels the earth was leveled off and
new ties and steel put in, so that no"
track rests over the old one

sag and will have to answer until the
more permanent Improvement can be
made.
The Lacey cut has certainly been an
endless source of trouble to the com

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.

Also a Few Facts On the Same Subject.
We hear much nowadays about health
foods and hygienic living. about vege-
tarianism and many other fads along
the same line.
Restaurants may be found IN the
large cities where no meat, pastry or
coffee is served and the food crank is in
his glory, and arguments and theories
galore advanced to prove that meat was
never intended for human stomachs,
and almost make US believe that our
sturdy ancestors who lived four score
years in robust health on roast oeel'
pork and mutton must have been gross
~ ignorant Of the laws OF health.
Our forefathers had other things to
do than formulate theories about the
food they ate. A warm welcome was
extended to any kind from bacon to
acorns.
A healthy appetite and common sense
ere excellent guides to follow IN mat
tiers Of diet, and mived diet OF grains,
fruits and meats is undoubtedly the
hest.
AS compared with grains and vegeta-
bleS, meat furnishes the most nutr1ment
in a highly concentrated form and is
digested and assimilatcd more quickly
than vegetables and grams.
DR.. julius Remmson on this subject
says: Nervous persons, people run
down in health and OF low vitality
should eat meat and plenty of 1t. II the
digestion is too feeble at first 1t may be
easily corrected by the regular use OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each
meal. Two OF these excellent tablets
taken after dinner will digest several
thousand grains of meat, eggs or other
animal food in three hours. and no mat
ter how weak the stomach may be, no
trouble will be experienced IL regular
practice is made of using Stuarts Dys-
repsia Tablets because they supply the
pepsin and diastase necessary to per-
feet digestion, and every form of indi-
gestion will be overcome by their use.
THAT large class of people who come
under the head Of nervous dyspeptics
should eat plenty of mea. and insure its
proper digestion by the daily use of a
safe, harmless digestice medicine like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets composed of
the natural digestive principles, pepsin,
Giastase. fruit acids and salts, which
actually perform the work of digestion.
Cheap cathartic medicines, masquerad-
Ing under the name Of dyspepsia cures,
are useless for indigestion, as they have
absolutely no effect upon the actual di-
gestion of food.
Dyspepsia in all its many forms is
simply failure of the stomach to digest
food and the sensible way to solve the
riddle and cure the dyspepsia is to make
6aily use at meal time of preparation
like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which
IS endorsed by the medical profession
and known to contain active digestive
principles"
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at so cents for full treatment.

ENTER ARNOLD SCHOOL
Entrance Gained Thru a Cellar Win
dow-children's Books strewn on the
Floor and Teachers Desks RAN
sacked-1here Is No Clue to the
Robbers.

At some time during Monday night
thieves entered the Arnold ward school
building and ransacked the children's
desks in several of the rooms. While
rothing of value was stolen, the rob-
hers We're evidently in search of some
thing, as both teachers and scholars
desks were gone thru and their con-
tents strewn on the floor. So far as is
known there is no clue to the guilty
parties.
Entrance was gained 10 the basement
Of the building by breaking the glass in
one of the cellar windows, and the lock
on the door leading to the first floor
was broken, thus giving them access to
the entire building. The desks in the
rooms of Miss Esther Greenbaum and
Miss Jessie Marker We're gone thru and
the contents thrown on the floor. A
box of colored crayons were taken from
Miss Greenbaum's room, and from
Miss Curtis desk penknife and paper
cutter We're taken. In one or two of the
other teachers desks there were small
sums of money, but these desks We're
not touched. Burnt matches and
cigaret stumps were streWn about the
floor and also marks caused by tobacco
spit We're found. The muddy prints OF
dogs feet covered the floor. There
was no clue left by the robbers that
would lead to their detection. but 1T is
presumed that they were not boys.

Clifton Era: A wreck happened at the Coronado incline Saturday last. For some reason not yet ex- plained, the brake refused to work. The Coronado incline is the longest and steepest incline in the district, and it is said that the speed made by the cars was a sight worth see ing. The cars going down were loaded with ore, and those going up with mining timber. Both sets of cars stayed with the track until the end of their journey. No dam age was done to the incline, but the cars were badly wrecked. Tom Sidebotham and a companion who were on their way down from Coro- nado barely missed the train, upon which it was their intention to come down. Tom says he had happy walk down Coronado noun tain that day.

 Morenci Standard: One of the Longfellow Incline cars took trip on its own account, on Friday last, at the foot of the incline. It dashed through a house in which Geo. Tate was in the habit of sleeping, but by fortunate accident was not occupying that day.
 Journal-Miner: A mortgage or deed of trust was filed for record today, in which the consideration named was $2,0OO,0O0. The party executing it was the Baca Land Grant corporation, and the party to whom it was given was the Com mercial Trust Company of Cincin- natl, the property affected being the Baca grant in this county.
 Yuma Sentinel: Jack Heyl, driver for the Union Ice Company, has certainly struck season of bad luck. Not long ago he had foot smashed by big cake of ice falling on it, and now he is laid up again as the result of a runaway. Last Thursday the team attached to the loaded ice wagon ran away on Second street, and as the wheels struck the railroad track at Madi- son avenue, Jack was thrown out and one of the wheels passed over his right ankle. Although no bones were broken, it is considered bad injury and liable to cause him trouble for long time.
 Republican: Messrs. Irvine and Warren, two young men iii the em- ploy of s. D. Lount x Son, yester- day took jaunt down the river in quest of white wings. In the river bed near Crusoe's lake they found an old wild cat and two half grown kittens. Springing from the buggy Irvine seized and held the old cat, who would not desert her kittens, while Warren, after good deal of running, caught and placed the young ones in a sack. The old cat then made successful effort to escape, leaving a couple of deep scratches on young Irvine's hands for sweet remembrance sake. The kittens were brought to the city, and are now the chief attraction in the engine room at Lount's ice fac tory.
 Journal-Miner: w. w. Elliott, 8 miner located on Banning creek, while returning to his cabin Mon- day evening took refuge alongside of large boulder during the pro- gress of the storm. He remembered hearing a tremendous clap of thun- der and then, for an instant, saw a flash of fire, when he fell over, and it was over two hours before he re- gained consciousness. In speaking of his experience to friends he says that after awakening it was fully an hour before he could convent ently handle his limbs to permit of walking, and in addition to this he was very sick at the stomach. His theory of the matter is that the lightning bolt hit boulder near by with full force, and that he re- ceived but a flash from the main current when it broke. He thinks
