Blowing Up a Mountain.

The Fl Paso Herald says: Three
 miles this side of Straus the s. P. cutoff survey runs through one corner of a mountain. There is no way to get around it and of course it had to be blown up. Engineer Bienenfelt commenced some time ago putting in a tunnel under the mountain. Last week it was finished and 900 kegs of powder placed in it. Friday it was touched of and the mountain came tumbling down. Concerning the big explosion Engineer Bienenfelt said, It was terrific and the whole country seemed to have been shaken. The cut into the mountain was 125 feet long and side cuts were also made. After the powder was stored in the cut it was blocked up and fuse run out several yards. This was touched of. It was quite suspense waiting for the fire to req h the big mine, but presently a low rumble was heard, and then the whole mountain shook as if an earthquake was on. The dirt and rock was not thrown very high and soon settled down, but was broken up in such a manner as to make it easily handled.

Monday Club Meeting.

Yesterday was what was termed Mrs. Otis Day" in the Monday Club. It was so designated from the fact that the entire programme of exercises were turned over to her. The meeting was presided over by Vice President Mrs. D. NJ. F. Weeks at its opening, and after the usual routine of reading the minutes was gone through with, the presiding officers chair and gavel was turned over to Mrs. T. W. Otis. The only number on the programme was paper by Mrs. Otis entitled "Short- comings in American Civilization" which she read and then called on various members for the discussion of various topics. These exercises covered quite scope of subjects and were in the nature of talks by the ladies. rather than the reading of pa pers or the delivery of set addresses, and proved one of the most interest ing features of the entire years pro- gramme. The subjects assigned the various ladies, together with those to whom they were assigned were as follows: Coronation of King AL fonso of Spain," Mrs. B. D. Billing hurst; Presentation of Statue of Count Rochambeau and the Corona ton of King Edward of England" Mrs. W. w. Ross; Points in the Life of Rochambeau," Mrs. c. P. Dake; Administration of Senor Palma, Cuba's New President" Mrs. J. c. Herndon; Germany and Its Em- peror," Mrs. J. V. Shepard; Our Proposed Danish West Indian Pur- chase" Mrs. J. L. Munds. Mrs. D. Levy read a sketch of the Life ana Death of Bret Harte, and Mrs. J. W. Akers read a description of the de- struction of Pompeii, as being simi- lar to the St. Pierre disaster.
 The musical programme consisted of piano solo by Mrs. W. s. Colds worthy; a vocal solo by Mrs. D. NJ. F. Weeks, with Mrs. R. Fl. Burmister as accompanist; and a vocal solo by Miss Amelia Block, with Mrs. w. $. Goldsworthy as accompanist.
 The club will close its sessions for the year with its meeting on Monday, June l6.

6 THE SISTERS HOSPITAL. Contemplated Additions Will Make it
 an Imposing Structure.

It is announced that the Sisters of Mercy are contemplating in the very near future the building of an addi- tional wing to their elegant hospital in the pines of west Prescott. When completed the building will assume not only a pretty regard from an architectural standpoint, but will it be one of the most connections and perfect homes for the afflicted there is today in the southwest. The build ing of this additional wing will be the carrying out of the original plans of the building when erected in 1896. The additional wing will give a front age on Garden street of l50 feet by a depth of 60 feet and of two stories in height. In accommodations there will be forty large rooms and the very latest improvements in conven- fences, such as sanitaay arrangement, ventilation, caring for visitors, access ability, heating aud lighting, etc, will be provided for. When com pleted Prescott will undoubtedly be the possessor of an i-IDosing edifice without rival in A i:Ona. In the six years the Sisters of Mercy have been residents of this city, their benevo- lent work has been gratuitously ex- tended 10 many and in their appeal to our people for assistance they are moved by the same spirit of charity that is characteristic of their life. In all the years of their sacrifice to a calling. which at best must be dis agreeable duty, they have labored zealously and often generously, and from 1476 patients cared for, but 6a have died. Encouragement should be extended them.

 Up Differences.

Advices from Phenix today state that all commercial and water inter ests of Salt river dssired to work in harmony and peaceably so with the adjoining counties in the matter of water rights and privileges affecting all, and a telegram had today been sent to Congress asking that body to eliminate from the bill pending be- fore that body all objec- tionable features complained of affecting water rights along the Verde and streams tributary to the Salt river. This action is certainly of the good will order and deserves to be justly commended. There should be no friction whatever be- tween Maricopa and Yavapai, on any question, and this voluntary move to close a chasm of disagreeable con cern, binds the matter in '-commun- ty of interests" fairly and firmly.
