The twenty-frst anniversary of Gordon's mar
tyrdom was commemorated this year IN the
opening of the railroad from the Nile to the
Red Sea, from Atbara, on the Wady Halfa-
Khartoum line, to Port Soudan near Suakinl
Ismail Pacha first planned the road in the hey
day of his power, and effort to build It was
made in 1877. Gordon advocated it. and at about
the time OF his death the British government
actually did little work on IL, only to abandon
1t with the rest of the Soudan After Kitchener
retook Khartoum Lord Cromer determined the
road should be built. but work not actually
begun on the line between Atbara and Port
soudan until October 1904. CThe line from
Wady Halfa to Khartoum had, of course been
made by Kitchener long before) 1t was a.
characteristic manifestation of British energy
and efficiency to build a railroad clear across
the Nubian desert within sixteen months, and
1t was fine achievement for the opening and
civilization of the dark regions for which Cor
don gave his life.

The new rival OF the horse can be used to

special attention had to be paid TO gearing, and
to appliances for preventing the accumulation
of dust or grit upon the wheels ana for keeninp

STATES MAKING BEET SUGAR.

The manufacture of beet sugar was carried on in F states at the time of the census of 1905. The leading states were Colorado. Michigan and Califor-' nia. The value of products was s7,19S : 9S2 for Colorado. $5.37S.OO4 for Michigan and s4.4l5.172 for California. Those ? states produced 69.7 per cent O: me to- tai product reported for the United States.
 At the census of 1905 Idaho. Ohio and Wisconsin appeared for the first time among the states engaged in this in@ dustry. while Illinois and New Mexico were not shown i1 the list. although in 1900 factories were in operation in those states.
 The state which had the greatest number of factories in 1905 was Michi- gan; and of the 19 factories in that state, 10 had been established since 1900. Colorado ranked second with 9 active factories. of which only 1 was in existence in 1900.
 The greatest actual increase in value of products in 1905. as compared with 1900. occurred in Colorado, and the next greatest in Michigan.
 The largest sugar factory in this country, and one of the largest in the world. is located in California. which state possesses a larger acreage that is well adapted to the growing of sugar beets than is found in any other state in the union. In California and in Col orado irrigation is used in the growing of beets. In the latter state extensve experiments in feeding cattle and sheep on beet pulp are being carried on. and the beet pulp branch of the industry is further advanced than in any other state. In Michigan also the utilization of the by products has received cOnsid- erable attention
 In Utah the problem of the delivery of beets to the factories has been sOlv-

CHA COUNTY GRAND JURY.
Two Apaehes Charged With Taking
 Life, Were Released.

The grand jury of Gila county con- vened Monday. and before the end of the day had taken up twelve criminal cases which had been referred to it. Of these true bills were found against two. nine were ignored and one was referred to the next grand jury.
 The first partial report was made late in the afternoon. The report in cluded the finding Of indictments against Henry E. Davis for murder and Fred Van Hoi st for forgery. Davis is the man who shot and killed State Jones, another negro. seven weeks ago in negro saloon. Van Horst is the young Boer who is alleged to have robbed postoffice box and taken a check for s115.5O from a letter and to have cashed it at a local bank. forging the name of the Arizona Steam laun- dry to the check.
 The following cases were ordered dismissed by the grand jury:

 C. J. Hamilton, resisting an officer.
 Francis T. A. 91. murder
 Naltua T. B. s. murder.
 Jose Acosta, assault with deadly weapon.
 Harry Hayes. assault with intent to commit murder.
 The case of S. l., Craig for forgery was referred to the next grand jury, the prisoner having escaped.
 Probably the happiest of those who were tuned loose were the two Apaches. Francis and Naltua. The latter was bound over to the grand jury for killing an Indian girl at Roose- welt by shooting her through the head. It is said that the case was purely ac- although Naltua was drunk at the time of the shooting. Francis was accused of killing his infant child at San Carlos with a.blow of his fist Globe Silver Belt.
