Ada Williams, coal tar artist, was
before Mayor Powell Yesterday morn
ing for executing a few fancy cake
walk whirls in front of the Tucker
building just before Governor Glenn
was scheduled to speak at Metropoll-
tan Hall on Wednesday night.
Ada was pulled by the police and
put into a cold storage that was not

When she was arraigned yesterday,
Ada explained that she was only an
amateur and that the spirit of the
corn" that she had bought in honor
of the speaking was doing all the
dancing. The mayor accepted the eX-

"Do 1t Today"

The time-worn injunction, "Never put of til tomorrow what you can do today" is now generally presented in this form: "Do it today!" That is the terse advice we want to give you about that hacking cough or demoralizing cold with which you have been strug gling for seveal daays, perhaps weeks Take some reliable remedy for it TO-DAY, and let that remedy be Dr. Boschee's German Syrup, which has been in use for over thirty-fve years. A few doses of it will undoubtedly re- lieye your cough or cold, and it's con- tinal use for few days will cure you completely. No matter how deep seated your cough, even if dread con- sumption has attacked your lungs, Ger man Syrup will surely effect cure, as it has done before in thousands of ap- parently hopeless cases of lung trou- ble.

Y.ma,, cemIrs sumn,er Resort.

Arizora is unfortunate that she has
 no sea coast. It should have. It might
 have had, had not the same narrow
 minded ideas governed our treaty mak-
 CTS at the time of the Gndsden purchase
 as control the minds of some people at the present day-cannot believe there
 is anything valuable beyond the range of their own contracted vision. At that time the national boundary line might just us well have been made to include the beach of the Gulf of CGli- fornia from St. George bay to Point Lookout, 10 miles below San Felipe, as to run where it does.
 From Yuma to Montague island. via the T. s. R. R. line, ss run by Chalmer Scott in the '70s, the distance is only 65 miles, over an almost dead-level mesa, along the west edge of which lie the rich bottom lands of the Colorado river. No place on the Pacific coast possesses more natural advantages than this island for both summer and winter.resort. Within eass .reach are the celebrated clam flats, the shell banks, the hot mineral springs of Santa Clara, the fine duck, goose and crane hunting of the Celerado~ and Hsrdic rivers, the wild hogs of the Hardic, the finest fishing in the world, the oysters and shellfish of San Felipe, and not too far away the deer and antelope of the hills and mountains, together with the of hot and cold mineral springs and the mud and other volca- noes of the Cocopah country.
 If railroad was built to this famous country it would soon become the most popular resort on the Pacific coast. It has the most even climate in the United States-never cold, never hot, no fogs, no frost, almost the same the year around. At the island the water is fresh twice every twenty-four hours, and salt as the ocean twice in the same time; that is, when the tide is in the water is salt but when the tide is out the grsat volume of water from the Colorado fills the space. The tide rises 32 feet. M
 Just think of it-only two hours from Yuma. What resort it will be! Then others than Yuma's "400" could go to the seashors.
 Montague island covers nearly 1000 acres. The time is not far distant when Yuma will have one the very best health and pleasure resorts in America.

 How forcibly are the above lines brought to mind by the death of Miss Edna Greenleaf, who passed away at the residence of F. l.. Ewing on last Friday morning.
 She had been ill but week, with an attack of la grippe, but was not consid- cred in any danger till few hours be- fore the end came. The unexpectedness has added, if possible, still greater sor- row to the sad hearts left behind.
 Miss Edna was born in Yuma on Jan uary IS, 1883. Her short life was spent here with the exception of time away at school. Two years ago she graduated at the Tempe normal school, and since has been teacher in the local school where she first was taught to read. As @ mark of respect to her memory the local school was closed on Friday.
 Her stricken family have the sym psthy of g very large circle of friends. The father, Melville Greenleaf, served two terms as sheriff of Yuma county, and is one of the best known men in this section. He was tho only relative present at the end, the mother snd other members of the family being at Tempe where the younger sisters are attending the normal school. They, as we'll as relatives in California, were at once notified and arrived here as soon as possible.
 Another, sad feature is that the young lady was the promised bride of James Polhamus of Picacho, the we'd ding to have been in June.
 The funeral that was held in the Methodist church at 10 o'clock Sunday morning spoke louder than words of the love and esteem borne her in Tufna. Never has there been here such an out pouring of sympathetic friends; never such universal sorrow aud regret. It was the largest funeral ever held in Yuma. Every carriage in town was in line, and in addition two carloads of friends were taken out by rail.
 The funeral sermon was by Rev. J. A. Crouch, and the church was filled to it's utmost capacity. The pallbearers were members of the deceased's class. Flowers were in profusion. Pansies being her favorite flower. were in large supply, and as the members of Elks, Odd Fellows and A. O.. U. w., who at tended the funeral, filed past the open grave each dropped pansy onto the casket below till it was hidden from yiaw

Rich Mines.

The wonderful rich discoveries in Mohave county, of silver orc which runs up into hundreds and thousands of dollars per ton, in great veins covering large area of country, are among the most important ever made in western Arizona-equal to and surpsssing those of Greed, Cripple Creek and others in Colorado. This brings to mind the fact that rich finds may yet be expected in the unprospsctsd mineral belts which lie along and adjacent to the Colorado river.

Arizona Top Notch on Hay.

Arizona leads every state and territory in the Union in the pro- duction of hay per acre. During the past year, according to the report of the agricultural depart mcnt just issued, the average per acre for the whole territory is given at 3.45 tons. Nevada comes next with an average of 3.12 tons, Utah 2.96, Idaho 282, Colorado 256, Wyoming 2.14, California POS, Oregon 2.07. None of the other states reach an average of two tons per acre. The high average for Arizona is caused by cutting from six to eight crops year of from one to two and one half tons per acre in the soathern part.
