 It is not generally known that the Salt river valley ,'roduces the finest cotton in the world, but such Is the fact, according to information re- ceiyed from the agricultural depart. ment at Washington. Dpdng the past year Professor McClatchie, of the experimental station sfort distance north of Phoenix, planted nearly an acre of Egyptian cotton. It was giv- en due care and attention. and the result was more than satifactory. In fact it has delighteS not only Profes- sor McClatchie, but others interested in the valley. Samples of the cotton were sent to Washington about ten days ago, and Friday Professor Me Clatchie received an answer from the agricultural department, which stated that the cottop from the Salt river val ley was ''the finest ever seen in the department.'

 George Aston ,,nd Cam Benning field were foully murdered at the latter's saloon in Miller's canyon, in the ilua- chuca mountains, Oh Sunday night of last week. Meager reports of the in- cident have been prev iously received but papers arriving from the southern part of the territory give fuller par ticulars. Aston and Btnningfield had been out fOI d hunt, and returned Co the saloon about supper tine. As they stepped in, a Mexican named Juan Hernandez, fired a siN-ShO0ter through the roof. Benningtield told him to stop such conduct, as he could not allow it in his place. He then shot Benningield through the lungs and later, with shotgun, shot him in the head as he lay on the floor, the man dying after six hours. In the meantime Aston tried tO interfere but was shot through the head by an other Mexican. The barkeeper grabbed a rifle and shot, wounding the man who killed Aston. The two MeXicans then retired, and being joined by an other, made their escape. Five Mex jeans were later arrested by the rang CTS and jailed at NacO, and a hanging bee was imminent, though at last report, better judgment prevailed

A HALT CALLED.
MT John D Rockefeller lectures the Copper
 Stock Gamblers

John D. Rockefeller, the richest man." who cannot enjoy the simplest pleasures of the poorest man. is still hale enough to scold his brother William and his partner, H. H. Rogers for their wildfire manipulation of Amalgamated copper stock.
 He is said to have telephoned from his country home in the Pecan tico Hills that the use of Amalgamated as a club to beat the stock market must be stopped
 He had the information sent out again that the Standard Oil company had no interest in copper, and Wall street breathed more freely with a chance of panic gone.
 Copper shares drop of 70 points in six months has hurt the general mar ke', and the lambs who started com ing back last summer have all been scared away.
 J. Pierpont Morgan was appealed to and he is believed t0 have induced Mir. Rockefeller to read the riot act "
 Both gentlemen are bit afraid that too much fooling with trust stocke might lead to an investigation by the coming congress. New York World.

Repartee that hurt.

correspondent from Ithica N. r., sends the Record the following street car incident: One of the last sharp November days d boy entered the car leaving the door open, much to the discomfort of an old gentleman who sat next. As the wind chilled his marrow his temper rose. Leaning across his seat and taking the kid by the ear he said; Were you brought up in barn? Why don't you shut the door? The boy said nothing, but closed the door, coming back to his seat in tears. This sight moved the old man to relenting pity. There, there he said, little man, | didn't really mean you were brought up in a barn. , That's just it." retorted the kid.

ARlzONA'S NATURAL BRIDGE.
One of the Great Cufiosites of the Territory
 located h ca County

located h ea County
 The Natural Bridge of Tonto Basin is by no means one of the lesser curi- osities deposited within the borders of Arizona by Dame Nature, says the Coconino Sun.
 The bridge is located about six miles southwest of Pine, deep down in a canyon, several hundred feet from the top or rim, and within two hundred feet of the bottom. A wagon road Is being built from the rim to the bridge by MT. GoodfellOw, very pleasant gentleman who resides in a pictur- esque home upon the top of the bridge At present there is an easy trail lead ing down to the bridge.
 Tha canyon walls to the west are abrupt, dropping down nearly 1000 feet, composed mostly of beautiful red sandstone, fantastically marked, which glow with majestic splendor in the morning sunlight. The opposite side of the canyon siantS gradually
 utward, though too steep to go down without following trail, and is coy. cred with scrub growth of tim Der and sage bush. Looking far of down the canyon south from the rim, at the head of the trail, you may see a small green spot, and when you reach it you will ind it a yeritable lit tie paradise, where fruit, vegetables, vines, trees and water abound all on top of this most curious bridge.
 The bridge is, in reality, a solid for nation of rock several hundred feet long, north and south, and about half as wide from east to west, with both ends apparently broken oil abruptly. A swift running brook has worn It's way through the rock from end to end some 2OG feet below, and comes gurg- ling over the rocks at the lowerend as pure as crystal The rocks from above have been washed by floods and crack ed by the elements until a space has been opened over 100 feet high beneath the bridge. High up under the giant arches of the bridge are mammoth caves, as yet only partially explored, where bats and their kind have made their home for years.
 Beneath the bridge is large pool of water where leaves, pieces Of wood and other objects were found coated with hard, firm shell of limestone {: it could hardly be called a petrifac. ton, but is certainly a most wonder lul preserving process. At the house they will show you numerous articles that have been thus petritied. includ- iDs teapOtS. flowers and even ladies' hat covered with rock, heavy as lead and as perfect in form as the day it was made. It is said that these arti- cleS were allowed to remain in the wa ter from three to four weeks before being taken out perfectly petritied or coated with rock.
 Another peculiar thing noted about the bridge is, that numerous springs break out upon the top Of it, though it hangs in midair, as it were between the two canyon walls. All the water used for irFigating the pretty and pro- ductive little farm, comes from these springs in never-failing quantities
 Fruit trees grow and flourish here. bearing fruit year after year vegeta- bleS grapes and other products grow abundantly upon the fertile soil wash ed down upon the great lodges of rock.

"Commence" or "BepIn. :"

Commence or Begin? The best wri. ters, and the best speakers also, prefer begin" to ''commence'' for all every, day purposes. The reason for this preference is not, as some have said, that begin" is older, for commence' is of very respectable antiquity nor is it, as others have said, that ''begin', is of Anelo'saxon origin, for words of French or of Latin origin that have been fully adopted into our language are just as good English as native words; 1t IS rather that begin has the strength of simplicity, whereas "commence' has fallen into disrepute from being associated with the chez Q haery of writing Ladies' Home Journal.

Every newspaper treasures up
in its memory the names of it's
friends and likewise its enemies.
1t seldom, if ever, overlooks an
opportunity to assist the former,
but never goes out OF its way to
boost the latter. Human nature

where. People who show the
