IOWA AT THE FRONT.

That the state of Iowa stands I'M
rivalled in agricultural products is
known all over the country. In corn.
grass, hogs and dairy productions,
the has attained high rank among
her Sister states, second to none in
some respects and we'll up in many
others. 1t is no wonder that our people
feel great satisfaction in our standing,
and point with pri lie to the record.
But we are rapidly acquiring dis
tinction in other ways, in arts and
manufactures. as we'll as in the direct
products of nature. We are coming to
have something to say, as the follow
ing from the Dubuque Times well ILL
ustrates
'Lenihan 81 Molo of Dubuque have
received word that they have been
awarded the contract to supply the
brick which will be required to pave
the streets OF the cities of Panama and
Colon. The government is making big
improvements in these cities and the
contract for supplying the brick was
let by bid, and the Dubuque firm, max
ing the lowest bid, has received the con-
tract. An idea of the size of the con-
tract can be secured fir ON the fact that
the freight bill for shipping the brick
to the isthmus will amount to $45. 900.

We all know w. f. Bedow's penchant
for gorgeous and noticeable raiment,
and this is the trouble it got him
into at Dubuque. He stops at the
Hotel Wales so frequently that he is
well known to the dining room girls.
One morning during the recent hot
spell he came into breakfast clad in
All immaculate pair of white trousers.
The head waitress tapped him on
the shoulder and in semi-confidential
penetrating whisper said" Excuse me.
Mr.. Bedow haven't Won forgotten
something this morning." "Why, /
CUES not. replied William smiling all

The Government Plant Bureau is going to try to introduce the cultivation of the pistachio nut on an extensive scale in Califor- nia and Arizona. In parts of that state and territory, which are scarcely capable of produc- ing anything else of value, con- dltions seem to be highly favor able for the production of this particular crop.
 In some of the deserts of the Old World, such as the Sahara, wild species of pistachio are the only plants that reach the size o1 our own large trees. Experi- ments have shown, that the culti- vated nut can be grafted upon these stocks, the resulting hy- brldS retaining the drouth-prOoi qualitiesof the wild parent, and it is altogether probable that such cross bred varieties could be introduced successfully in arid parts of our own Southwest.

Water And Light c m )any
 EniOined

The Ynma Water and Light Comp any which gave public notice that it would cease to serve patrons, beginning to day, did not carry the notice into effect, for the reason that it was enjoin- ed from so doing. Suit was brought in the name of C. V. Meeden and A. H. Caroill, with J. W. Darlington. John Gandolfo, and E. r. Sanguinetti as su- reties. The case was presented before Commissioner MollOy, who granted q temporary injunction, which will stand until a receiver is appointed. It is generally understood that the Con- pany'S threat to close down was move to coerce the city into buying the plant To have done so would have resulted in forfeiture of the company's charter, but law suit would have been neces- sary to determine this point,and in the meantime the town would have been without water and light service. until the April term of the district court.
 There can be no discontinuance of service pending the adjustment of the question now.

Mining Along the Colorado in Yuma
 County

George Rush, miner who is here from the Colorado river, brings reports of much activity in that section. He says that the railroad being built west from near Wickenburg is causing much attention to be directed towards the mineral possibilities of the Colorado river valley.
 There are now a large number of prospectors in the field and reports are that they have been able to find some good prospects. This morning Mir. Rush gave some interesting informa- tion regarding the vicinity of Eagle and Whipple landings. Taking the property of the White Eagle Mining company as a point of departure, there is on the same divide about 300 feet higher than the White Eagle the Belcher group of six claims. The crop pings here are thirty feet in width, and as the ledge extends into the famous Billy Mack property, which a party in New York has offered large sum for, the expectations are that this will, under development, prove veritablc bonanza.
 The ore body in the Billy Mack at 300 feet is seven feet in width, and two assays by different persons gave $596 and S693 to the ton in gold.
 The Carnation group of fourteen claims, lately taken over by General E. BoutOn, James H. Watson and ". l.. Valentine, is located not far away from the Eagle group. MT. Franklin Booth of Los Angeles once made an extended report upon this section.
 The property of the Quartz King mining company consists of l04 claims situated in Yuma county on the Arizo- na side. less than two miles from the Colorado river, and about siXty-fvc miles below Needles. The surveys of the Arizona and California Railway company shows that the road, when completed to the river, will not be over q mile from this property. The gen. eral formation of the country rock in this locality is lime, schist and por- phyry, with some iron, the ledge mat ter being between the iron and schist. The ore is an iron quartz, honey cOmbed, free milling, and easily crushed. The claims are located on mammoth gold-bearing quartz ledge, in some places being 400 feet in width. On one claim shaft 150 feet in depth, with a cross cut of 125 feet proves up big body Of low grade ore, with values ranging from S3.70 to $S per ton in gold.
 4 ninety-four foot tunnel on another claim has a winze thirty-five feet from the entrance, sunk 5 feet, and from the bottom is cross cut 60 feet east erly and p feet westerly, and all the workings in a solid body of ore.-Pres colt Herald.

Housekeeping at the White House.

President and Mrs. Roosevelt are decidedly the most lavish entertainers who have ever re- sided at the Executive Mansion in Washington. They give each year four large. state dinners to the members of the Cabinet and their wives, to the Diplomatic corps, the Judges of the Su- preme Court and the members of Congress at each of which from ninety to one hundred persons are present. At these dinners both the menu and decorations are very elaborate. Then there are in addition, perhaps two dozen semi-state dinners in hon. or of distinguished persons, and at each of which from twenty to forty guests are present. How ever, this represents but a small portion of the Roosevelt hospi- tality, for Mrs. Roosevelt serves refreshments at all her teas and musicals, and the President never sits down to a meal-mOrning, noon or night-without having as guest anywhere from one to six of his close personal and po- litical friends.
 Under the present regime the the great state banquets are prepared and served by profess ional caterers who, however, use the White House kitchen. The smaller dinners are entrusted to the White House culinary staff which is made up of a half dozen cClored cooks and helpers. The President must pay the wages of all these kitchen workers, but Uncle Sam provides him with steward whom the government pays salary of S1 800 a year and who makes all purchases of provisions for the Presidents ta- ble, looks after the White House china, cut glass and plate and, in short, exercises general super vision over the kitchens.
 There is large laundry con- nected with the White House where six experienced colored laundreSSeS are constantly at work. These women are served their meals at the table in the big kitchen so that sometimes al most as large party sits down below stairs as in the State din- ning-rOOm above.

In many cases the sending of unfortunateS to the territorial asylum for the insane near Phoenix is, to all intents and purposes, a death sentence. Many of these people are in a state of not only mental but physical collapse, and to send them to place where torrid eli matic conditions prevail is noth- ing more or less than a death sentence. Every humane con- Sideration demands that such a condition should not exist. If Arizona needs any sort of branch institution, 1t needs a branch in- sane aSylum.-COurier

The State of Utah seems de- sirous of enriching itself at the expense of Arizona. Utah wants to round out it's boundaries by taking from Arizona that portion of the latter lying north of the Colorado River. That may be very well, but just why Utah should expect something for nothing is not quite so clear. If Utah wants a piece of Arizona it should be willing to pay for it.. Los Angeles Review.

Gold may be free in an ore, but occur in such an extremely fine state of division as to be in- visible to the eye. This kind of gold is adapted to cyanide treat men Often attempts to analga- mate it fail, for the reason that the ore has to be crushed so fine to free the gold that there is a heavy loss in slimes.-M. &.

The mining laws of Arizona, passed in 1891, required that within ninety days from date of making a mining location the To- cator shall sink discovery shaft in the claim to the depth of 1C feet, or deeper, if necessary, un- til mineral in place shall have been exposed. The California law has no such requirements. In Montana a shaft 10 feet deep must be sunk within" sixty days of the date of making location.

Arizona and California Railroad Will Open Up a Valuable Country
Fl Paso Herald |

Arizona and California June ton, A. T., March 8.--WOrk on the Arizona & California rail
 road, an extension of the $. F.,
 P. & F., west, has been hindered
 the last two weeks by heavy rains that have turned the des- ert into a vast mudhole. How ever, work will be resumed at once and the road pushed to Salome.
 To those who are not aware of the magnitude of this road a word concerning what is done and is in contemplation might not be amisS. Arizona and Cali fornia Junction is i've miles north of Wickenburg, on the s. F., P. & P. At this point the $. F., P. & P. has strengthened it's line for about mile, built a new passenger track, number of house tracts, depot and ''Y" It has also built not less than two miles of riprap and levee to protect it's grade, repaired bridg- es adjacent thereto and put the track in as good a condition as any line in the west. The con- tractors, Grant Bros, have built 30 miles of grade on the new Ari- Zona & California railroad from this point. At this writing steel is laid on twenty miles of it and work is progressing nicely.
 This latter road will run from Arizona and California Junction to a point west of The Needles, Tn California, crossing the Colo rado River at Yuma county and will be about 175 miles long.
 Leaving the $. F., P. & P. at this junction, going west, one passes over prairie country that needs but a little push to be the garden of Arizona. Forty eight miles west is the new town site of Salome, town recently located by local people. Wells have been dug there and water at no great depth.
 Further on one passes theHar- qua Hala range, in which is situ- ated excellent mines that this road will benefit.
 Harrisburg is close to the line, as are also other camps of equal value, such as the Signal coun- try Bill Williams's Fork and other fields that have been here tofore too far from a railroad to exploit their mineral resources.
 At Parker, 100 miles west, an excellent ranch country will be tapped, giving the cattle and horse industry way to market, from two to five hundred miles shorter than at present. This road is also a cutoff for the Santa Fe.
 The junction, Salome, and Parker will no doubt, aided, by the mineral country surround ing, ranches, etc., on the com pletion of this road, enjoy groth that will be healthy and 
 Mining men, ranchers and home seekers are investing con servatively in properties in this section of Arizona and are sure to reap legitimate profit on their efforts. The town lot land boom CT has not yet arrived, pushing fictitious values, and it is to be hoped his day will never come.

A 10 IlG dCtudl D1CIc11d or O1S-
 ease, the mosquitoS and flies are the most dangerous enemies of mar. The mosquito with its bite injects into our veins malaria, yellow fever and other fa.Ai troubles The EY witS spongy feet, collects the invisible ge-r:s of diseases, spreads them over our food and poisons Us with typhoid, cholen. and other plaques of the human race.
 Dr. Pierce, the eminent physician of Buff falo, N. Y., says, "If each person will con- slider his system as an army of men which he controls as general, and will see to its proper provisioning and that 1t has plenty of ammunition in the shape of good red blood, lie will be able to overcome the enemy in these germs of disease" Every !fealthy man has five million red blood corpuscles to every square millimeter Of blood. Tie best tonic for increasing the red blood corpuscles and building up healthy tissue is no doubt Dr. Picrce's Golden Med ical Discovery. This medicine has been on the market for over third of century and numbers its cures by the thousand.
 Mary popular patent medicines or tonics are made up largely of alcohol and will shrink the corpuscles of the blood and make them weaker for resistance. What is needed is ;,n alterative extract. like pr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, made of roots and herbs, without the use of alcO- hol that will assist the stomach in assirli- iating or taking from the food such eie- ments as are required for the blood, also an alterative that will assist the activity of the liver and cause it to tbrow off the poisons in the blood. When we have accomplished this we have put the system in fortified condition so strong that 1t can repel the germs of disease which we find every where in the street-cars, the shops, the factories, the bedrooms wherever many people congregate, or where sunlight and good air do not penetrate.
 Accept no substitute for Golden Medical Discovery" There is nothing "jast as good for diseases of the stomach blood and lungs.
 Neglected constipation means headache, heart burn, sour stomach, foul taste in tEe mouth, biliousness, pimples, and palpita- ton of the heart. Constipation is promptly cured by Dr. Pierce Pleasant Pellets. One fer mild cases, otherwise two.
