00INGS IN PHOENIX AND
 THE SALT RIVER VALLEY

From the Arizona Republican.
 Six Osborn mowers were taken to tEe B. A. Packard ranch and started on the cutting of some 1900 acres of hay. Work was commenced on the Frankenberg ranch and as soon as the first hay is cured, two laking outfits and steam baler will te put in oper ation. This grass nay is hrSt class and is exceptionally free from foxtail.
 The board of supervisors yesterday received the bill of the territorial in- dustrial school for the last quarter for the care of the boys sent from this county. The bill amounts to s3ll.S5 There are nine boys there and all but three have bsen at the school for the full ninety days. The others have been there sixty days. The bill shows that the rate psr day has been re- duced from siXty-four to fifty-fve cents. There is a general feeling that it ought to be further reduced and until cheaper way is found to run the school it is not likely that maay boys will be sent from this cnuuty. Some of the counties, notably Yava. pal, have withdrawn their patronage of the school entirely.
 County Treasurer Hayden has begun making oUt a list of the afiidivits of owners of transient herds of she sp which the law requires shall be made. The atfi1ayits so far include lO3. $50, but there are several owners who have not yet come forward, though the time fixed by law has alm )St expired. IL Is estimated that there were nearly 400, 900 sheep in the valley daring the winter and so far as is known none havd been driven north yet, though some have been sold and shipped out of the country. Each aflidavit states the date when that particular Il )ck of sheep was brought into the county and also states the county from which the sheep were brought. These atii dayits will be sent to the treasurerS of the counties where the sheep belong and when taxes have been collected at home on them they will be for warded to this county, its proportion ate share being based on the time the sheep remained iu this county.
 It appears that Phoenix is not to make the first test O. the new primary election law, after all. According to the city council it will be impossible to comply with the provisions of the new law On account of the lack of time, and the calendar does seem to support lhis contention.

FOUNDING CASE GOES
 TOU. 5. SUPREME C0URT I

The following letter from Messrs. Bennett & Bennett, of Phoenix, attor- neys in the New York fJundling cases, will prove interesting reading. The letter was addressed to J. c. Gatti, and is as follows, says the Clifton Era:
 We had hoped and expected that the New York FOnndling hospital had abandoned l Is appeal Co .he supreme court of the United States, but at the session of the supreme court here this week, MT. Ives asked for an extension of tima la wdich t0 prepare his state ment of facts and to file his record in Washington. This extension was granted, tn e time being extended to May 23. It seems as if 1t were the purpose of the hospitIl people to take this matter up to the supreme court of the United States.

The little Qua malan ant, which wassheralded as the great weevil destroyer, has apparently failed to make good end all the other exterminators tried from time to time by the department having proved fu- tile against the weevil, Secretary Will son retires from the field with swan song technically termed "Farmers' Bulletin No. 2l6 !" Dr. w. D. Hunter, special agent in charge of the cotton boil wsevil investis ations, has written the bulletin for the taIy, and though his pamphlet is given the title of Control of the Boil Weevil,' he makes the following discodraging an- nouncement at the very outset of his essay: The work of the bureau of en- tomology for several years has indi- cated that there is not even a remote probability that the boll weeyil will ever be exterminated." Dr. Hunter devoteS the thirty-two pages of his pamphlet to the best methods of lodging the weevil. Briefly summed up, It is to plant early cotton, and af- ter tho crop is gathered, blow unde

Globe, where he spent couple of weeks. He reports Globe as a little dull on account of the Old Dominion smelter being closed down, due to washouts on the Gila Valley railroad. MT. Smith had to do some walking in coming out, but made most of the way to Stafford in wagon. He says that lhe people of Globe have not suffered for anything to eat, and that while there he heard no complaints of short age in provisions. However, the town has been cut off from supplies for nearly four weeks, but trans will probably be running next week, He thinks Globe is one of the best towns in Arizona, and judging from the rap i'd development of the mineral belt surrounding tue town, it is destined soon to become one of the largest, if not the largest, towns in the terri tory.

Peter Dooley of Prescott, who few weeks ago found strong box contain ing Si0 900 in gold buried in cellar of an old house, and Was for some time in doubt as to whom the money rightfully belongs, has decdei that Peter Dooley himself is the only man who has any claim on 1t.
 The good .natured Icish man has generous heart, and the money he found is going freely for the benefit of others. Half of it he gave to his daughter, Mary Ann D1oley. who has just become the bride of Allen NJ. Mul- len. The couple had built them lit. tie log house aud furnished it simply with bare necessities.
