ton and closer study of the hidden vir- tues of his various panaceas. But like St. John in the wilderness, he hungered, and after a seclusion of three days returned to the tribe. A council was immediately called and a great pow-wow had. The unfortunate Esculapian was seized and bound, and as prisoner was taken in the direction of the Mexican line. He has not re- turned and probably will never do so. As to his fate no white man knows, as the Indians are all very reticent coh- corning the affair. There will be one medicine man less in that community at least, and the health of the afflicted Indians may be expected to improve in proportion as his removal decreases the number of his profession. It is needless to say that the custom does not exist among the white people.

Fish in Plenty

The water which comes down from the Colorado river is heavily laden with carp, Colorado salmon and other fish, which range up to two feet or more in length, the larger fish remaining in the upper waters of the canal. Above the head of the canal at the Carter river there is an immense number of the larger fish, and it is altogether probable that when big flow of water is turned into the main canal that conduit will be equally we'll stocked, while the various laterals will un- doubtedly be supplied with enough fish to interest the sportsman and con tribute in no small degreee to the food of the public. These fish do not take the hook readily, and other devices will be resorted to to catch them. At the Carter river heading it has been found that when box is lowered by strings into the deep water and it is pulled to the surface there is often half bushel or more of the large fish in it. This suggestion of a dip net may be suggestive to other fishermen.

Advent of the Drummer

Imperial and Calexico are now on the regular beats of the representatives of at least two Los Angeles wholesale houses, they having been here during the past week, and probably other houses will soon have their men in here, and the jokes and merry laughter of the jolly drummer will go echoing down the section lines until they col lide with the international monuments.
 But the man who holds the honor of being the first commercial traveller to invade Imperial valley came three months ago, and everybody in the val ley knew of his coming, for he was probably the biggest man yet seen in these parts. He came for Baker x Hamilton, and when George McCaul- ley sized up the strangers 320 pounds he had new set of springs put under his stage before he ventured across the desert. When the giant landed here the earth trembled, but no serious re- suits came from his visit, and he won the honor of having opened new country to the commercial world.

Surveying Short DitCheS

Now that the task of making sur veys for the long laterals is about over, the survey parties are at work on a number of of laterals, ranging from a half mile to d mile in length, and de- signed to place water on the highest corner of each quarter section. Many of the individual farmers will take small contracts for these minor later als, to hasten the delivery of water to their land. During the present week much of the work done by the survey ors has been in the vicinity of Impe- rial. and there arc now three survey parties on this work, Elton Gaines having been recently promoted from leveiman to take charge of a party.

Medicine Man Disappears

The Yuma Indians, besides their many other heatheuish ways, have an memorable law, it seems, of sacrificing their medicine men who make nine false predictions with regard to either the death or restoration of their pa tients, says the Yuma Sentinel. A
 failure to make the correct prognosis in either case sends the doctor to the
 funeral pyrc along with the unfortun- atcs of his treatment. It appears that during the present measles epidemic, 50 fatal among the Indians just across the Colorado, one of the most renowned of their three medicine men has had the misfortune to make the fatal nine mistakes. When the ninth one of his patients died last week the distin- guishcd doctor took advantage of his knowledge of addition and discreetly retired to the mountains for medita-

RAILROAD SURVEY

The survey for the San Diego-E East crn railroad has now reached a point
 twelve miles east and little north of Campo, which brings it close to Ja- cumba valley, the present survey be- ing from one to two miles north of the
 international line. From Jacumba
 valley the wagon road to Imperial val Icy leads to the northwest, and it is believed the topography of the country is such that the railroad will be forced to take the same course, bringing it to a point almost due west of Imperial.
 The course which will be followed across the valley is yet open to conjec- ture. If it should be found that the Southern Pacific railroad is behind the San Diego road, by no means an un- acceptable hypothesis, though hidden from the public, there can be little doubt that il will join the main line near Flowingwell. Should it prove to be a competitor of the Southern Pacific, the road would be forced either to go to the northeast to pass north of the sand hills, or to the southeast, into Mexico, to pass south of the sand hills. The former route would traverse most of the valley to be irrigated, but would have an objectionable pass beyond the have the objectionable feature of en- tcring Mexican territory, would not cross so large an area of irrigated land, but would have the best route. The movements of the engineers from the time they leave the mountains will be watched with much interest by the people of Imperial valley.
 The San DieganSun says: "A tele- phone message from Chief Engineer Richards of the San DiegoEastern railroad announces that the survey party would probably break camp to- day and move eastward to Hayden val ley, point about F miles east and q expected to reach Jacumba Saturday night, but may not make that point until day or two later
 "Thc divide between Campo and Ja- cumba via Hayden valley road has heretofore been reported officially at HOO feet. but Mir. Richards is said to have found a crossing at an elevation of $500 feet, and the "hog- back" hav- ing been crossed, from now on it will be more or less steady drop down to the desert. All hands are working with might and main so as to cover the greatest possible distance before the rains arrive.
 "In this city the committee arc de- voting themselves largely to securing the necessary rights of way and are with very good success all along the line.
 "Thc second call of 2S per cent on the subscriptions for preliminary work will be made in d few days now, prob ably about the 18th inst, and at that time the committee will probably is sue an official statement showing just what has been accomplished to date"
