Did It Rain?

Were it but the true "days of old, ' when "a year was as but day. then the Yuma press could blazon forth somewhat as follows:
 "Another of the long continued series of soaking rains visited this section on Sunday. While it is matter of good business for the umbrella dealers,tO the rest of us it.appears very like super abundance of a good thing, and the weather-bureau man had best take warming;
 However, it is degenerate days into which the world has fallen, and days are short, with 365 of them to a year; SO the rain-but, come to think of it, the people hereabouts want several and sundry millions of round dollars because its dry country and never rains, so, ''mum" is the word,
 If you were in Yuma Sunday night it's all right, and if not, why, it did mt rain "little bit" Anyone that got wet that plight just fell in the river.

A Case for Charity.

A boy. aged about seventeen, was found lying unconscious by the side of the track two miles east of Mohawk Summit. several days ago, and was brought to the hospital here. When examined by Drs, Ketcherside he was found to have badly broken skull, several-pieces of which had to be re- yed.
 While unconciOus the boy talked of his hCme and mother and thus 1t was ascertained that his name is William Otto and his mothers address is San Antonio. Texas The father of the un- fortunate boy appears to have been dead for ten years and the mother is in poor circumstances.
 As the boy needs better care than can be afforded him at the cCuaty hos pital the elder Dr. Retcherside kindly circulated petition in the boys be- half, hoping thus to raise sufficient money to provide special nurse. as it is believed that with proper care the boy will recover. He is receiving all the medical attention and care possible under existing conditions, but the case is one that demands careful nursing as we'll

An Interesting Event.

On Thursday, September A, in Los Angeles there occurred an event of in- terest to Yuma society. Then it was that Miss Nannette Sexsmith, one of the fairest and most popular of the younger set of Yuma's fair daughters was united in marriage with Mr. Lera Page, of Tucson. The groom is also we'll and favorably known in Yuma. having been employed here by the s. P. Co.
 The wedding, which was elegant while transformations in appointments, took place at the Hotel Antlers at high noon. The parlors were tastefully dec- orated with white and pink carnations, smilax and ferns Mrs. Curtis played the wedding march from Lohengrin while the ceremony was being con- ducted by the Rev Robert Mcintyre,
 The fair bride was beautifully attired in a gown of tan silk, trimmed in tur- quoise and white chiffon, with hat and gloves to match. She carried boquet of white carnations, as did also the bridesmaid, Miss Clyde Walker, of Los Angeles, who was gowned in white Paris muslin Mr. Fred J. Phillips, of Los Angeles, acted as best man.
 Among these present the following were from Yuma: Mrs. F. c. Blaisdell, Mrs. R. P H. Laney. Mrs. C. T.. Brown, Mrs. D. L Russell, Mrs. G. s. Marable and Miss Witherall.
 Immediately after the ceremony the bride and groom left for Catalina Is- land. On their return they visit friends in Yuma for d few days. after which they will be 'at home" in Lordsburg New Mexico.
 Both bride and groom will bear with them to their new home the kindest wishes of their numerous friends in Yuma:

The "Bedrock" Work.

Late reports from the drill camp at Cocopah Point are to the effect that four holes have been sunk with view to locating bedrock. Three holes have been sunk in the present channel of the river Tn the first bedrock was found at 39 feet. in the second at 6l feet and in the third at 91 feet. The fourth hole was drilled on the east bank 400 feet from the river and bedrock was reached at l03 feet.
 Engineer Perkins, under whose su- pervisiOn the work is being carried on, stated some time since that 1G0 feet would be the limit in depth that they would care to go, but it is not thought that a few feet in excess of this will make any difference.

A Good Appointment.

Governor Brodie last week appointed Mr. A. F. White as Worlds Fair Com missioner for Yuma county, and a better selection could scarcely have been made. Mir. White is one of the energetic rustlers of the county. His soul is in whatever he undertakes, and just such a man is needed to arouse proper action of the people and induce that spirit of ambition that will lead to the very best exhibit at the great ex- hibitiOn of any county in Arizona. So far, apparently, there has been toe much apathy y--tOo little interest shown in this matter, but we hope now to see more interest taken in matters of such vital importance. It is certain that Yuma county can make a showing of products to be proud Of-One which will attract the attention of all who visit the fair, and prove the means of inducing men of capital to investigate its resources, and eventually to invest their money here.
 Net only this. but as matter of civic pride, every citizen should take an in- terest in this exhibit and assist solar as he can toward making it superior to any other, if that be possible.
 Mr. White is in receipt of a circular from H. B. St Claire, Secretary of the Worlds Fair Board of Managers for Arizona, giving information regarding exhibits and inviting the cooperation of citizens in making Arizona's $ exhibit one that will reflect credit upon the territory, and attract the attention of the world to our wealth of resources.
 If Yuma county would rank with the best-and she can-no time is to be lost. The preparation of an exhibit must begin now. A worthy exhibit cannot be collected and properly placed in few days, or even weeks. Yuma county must 'get move on," All ex- hNDitS must be in place by April lst. Yuma can make as fine showing of agricultural CT mineral products as any section of the territory and should do so.
