DEATH OF CHARLES KOSHER
A Pioneer Newspaper Man of This
 City.

A telegram was received yesterday announcing the death, at Portland, Ore, of Charles MOsher, a former well known newspaper man of Phoenix. MT. Mosher first came to the territory in the early eighties. He was connected with the Gazette in it's palmiest days. He was a brilliant writer and a great gath erer of news. Later he started a paper called the Arizonia, which, though rot long lived, was a lively journal. It was also a success. but early in the year 1890, Mir. Mosher decided to leave the territory and the paper was merged EIth the Phoenix Herald.
 Leaving Phoenix. MT. Mosher spent some time on the coast and then went east. He was employed for some time on New York newspapers. In the course of his eastern residence he con tracted consumption and his working days were practically over. He was a practical printer and had from the first maintained his membership in the Typographical union. When his health Jailed he went to Colorado and for a time resided at the printers home at Colorado Springs. That life was too in active for him. Though he never eX- pected to engage in newspaper work again. he decided to leave the home and perform such work as his health would permit
 Accordingly about a year ago he re- turned 10 Phoenix and was employed by the 1T. H. McNeil company until about two months ago when he grew HOFse and decided to go to Portland. Ore, where his mother lives. He leaves g daughter, Miss Julia Lount. The mother and Daughter are now in Eu- rope
 Those were glorious days when Char lie AIosher came to Phoenix the first time. There was a coterie of men who have attained a great deal of promi- hence in various walks of life, some in the newspaper world and some in the legal profession. Among them were Rucky O'Neill, P. C. Bicknell and Charles Pyn. All of them had come to

SUIT FOR A COMMISSION
The Sale of Property Which Had Been
 Listed With Several Agents.

There was idry trial in Justice Burnett's court yesterday of a suit for the collection of a commission on a real estate transaction. The plaintiffs were Austin & Edwards against B. F. MF'all and wife. The latter some time ago sold ranch north of the city to Henry
 Schrader for S3,6OO. Previously to that the defendants had listed the property
 with various real estate dealers among them the plaintiffs. In the listing the price was fixed at $4,0O0. The plaintiffs accordingly sued for five per cent of the list price, to which they would be en-
 titled. if they were entitled to any
 thing. regardless of what the actual price might have been.
 The principal witness was Schrader who testified that he had not been in fiuenced by the plaintiffs :n any way in the purchase of the property. In fact,
 he said that his attention had been called to the ranch before he was aware of the existence of the plaintiffs.
 Nor, said he, had any other real estate dealers anything to do with the
 deal. One day he was being shown the country by an agent and they drove , past the ranch. Schrader said he had been describing to the agent the kind of property he wanted and when they came to this place the agent old him that 1t was for sale. He also told him that it had been listed with his office at $4,000. As they drove along the roai the agent pointed out the western boundary Of it. Schrader testified that
 he had no further conversation with any one regarding the property until
 one day an acquaintance who knew he wanted to invest told him about this
 place and said that it could be bought for S3,2OO. He then went to see MT. MFal! and after some negotiation the sum of $3,6GO was agreed upon. The rest of the testimony was mostly made
 up, on the part of the plaintiffs Of allegations. and on the part of the de- fendants of denials.
 The case having been submitted the jury by some obscure process arrived at a curious verdict. The plaintiffs were given $50 and the costs were taxed against the defendant though the court had given, the apparently not necessary instruction, that any judg- ment would carry the costs.

 The friends of MT. Mosher included the population of Phoenix. This friend ship for him took the substantial form of support of his newspaper and his election to the office of city recorder, which he filled for two terms, or up to the time of his leaving the city.
 Mir Mosher was about 4s years of age. He was born near Portland, but the greater part of his early life was spent in California.

NEw BRRAD MAKING PRocEgs.

NEW BREAD MAKING PROCESS.
 "The good housewives of this country" saiIanoficiaI ofthe State De- partment the other day, will be inter ested in report recently received from United States Consul Mahin at Nottingham in regard to a newly in vented process for making bread, the chief virtues of which are that it re- duees the time and labor.
 As is we'll known. most of the time required in the ordinary process of making the stuff of life is in the pre- paration and treatment of the dough. After that has been mixed and must be left to rise, process consuming anywhere from four to twelve hours. Un- der sle new process, it is said that, this new operation is reduced to one hours time. The process IS as yet a secret. but is said to require no additi- onal plant or materials, the desired eff feet being produced by the action of temperatures. As a recent practical demonstration. the bread was made up into dough ready for the oven in 50 minutes, and the batch of twenty-five loafs was produced from the raw flour in two hours and thirty-five minutes. The four was weighed and the number of loaves compared with the number produced by the ordinary process, and 1t was found that under the new pro- cess eight more quartern loaves than usual were produced from sack of fiour.--From the Washington Star.

acre untreated yielded 750 pounds. In
 this case the bacteria almost doubled the yield. About twenty-five lots of
 bacteria have been sent into during the
 past season, but as yet it is too early
 70 secure returns. More than 12S differ ent lots have been sent into various parts of Alabama. and about twenty five into Mississippi, also about fifty
 one into Georgia.
 Tn the departments investigations, ] it has been found necessary to have diff ferent organisms for different crops. Thus. the organisms for cowpeas are
 not the same as those used for crimson clover or yetch. Farmers. thereforei | in writing to the department, should state the kind of crop they are propos- 5 ing to plant. This work, therefore, is
 exceedingly valuable in two important directions. D, it makes t practicable } to grow crops like cowpeas, clover, i veteh, and co forth, on land which hith- erte has remained barren or would not
 produce these crops; (2), on land that
 only produces the crops indifferently, ! 1t greatly increases the yield. Some soils are 50 deficit in the nitrifying or
 ganisms that it is difficult or impracti- cable to get a stand of any sort of clo- lver crop on them. Recently the atten- tion of the department was called to a sixty-acre field in the south. upon which
 all leguminous crops had failed to grow. The trouble was due to the ab- #sence of nitrifying organisms in the soil. This farmer is preparing to ino-
 culate his entire field another season
 through the medium of cowpeas. Some
 times another difficulty is met with in
 the south in the matter of getting these ] ileguminous crops to grow in certain { fields. The trouble is not due to the
 absence of nitrifying organisms, but to the presence of small, parasitic worms or nematodes, which destroy the roots.
 In certain parts of the cotton growing
 sections, notably the Sea Island region, these nematodes are very destructive, Lit being impossible to get a stand of
 cowpeas which are used exclusively as l rotation crop with cotton. To over come this difficulty the department has
 been for several years endeayoring to
 secure, by breeding and selection, a
 type of cowpeas which is resistant to the attack of nematodes. This the de7
 partment has succeeded in doing, and
 has distributed considerable quantity of the cowpeas known as Little Iron These practical questions the depart ment is constantly endeavoring to solve and is cooperating with farmers to this
 end in many sections of the country. Galveston Daily News.
