ARIZONA LITIGATION
 IN SUPREME C0UR!
Decision Yesterday in Two Important
 Cases from This Territory.

Washington, D. C., Jan. 2.-The SUI preme court of the United States to- | day affirmed the decision of the su-
 preme court of Arizona in the case ot 1 Ii. C. Herricll and others versus The Boquillas Land and Cattle company the decision being in favor of the lat
 ter This case involved a controversy over the Boquillas land grant in Co., chise county, Arizona, embracing IT,
 255 acres. The action was brought by about thirty settlers, who claim twen-
 ty years occupancy before the cattle company took possession. They ask
 ed for the restoration of the lands.
 $1O,O0O damages and $1OO,OOO a year rental since 1901. The cattle company purchased the property from w. R. Hearst, and he from claimants under a grant made in 1S33
 In an opinion by Justice Brewer the supreme court of the United States affirmed the decision of the supreme court of Arizona in the case of How ard versus Perrin. involving the title to certain land within the Atlantic and Pacific railroad grant in Coconino county, Arizona. The case involved the Arizona statute of limitations and the right to use the scepage water fo~ irrigation.
 The decision on the points was as follows: A statute prescribing a period of limitation in actions between parties claiming only possessory rights cannot be invoked by one having only a pos sessory right as against one having legal title by patent or grant from the government.
 A statute giving the right to appro- pirate for purposes of irrigation water from any convenient river creek or stream of running water gives no right to sink a well, collect in it the water percolating through the soil and draw it off in pipes as acequias for irrigation purposes.

 5, 10 AND 20 ACRE TRACTS.

D, IU ANU ~ ACRE RAG $.
 Of land near enough to the business center of Phoenix so that a man could do business in the city and live on a small place in the country. Having this in view I have purchased so acres lying 3-4 mile west of the fair ground on the Christy road. The ground lays just right for subdividing into ,, 10 and 20 acre tracts and each tract fronting on the Christy coun- ty roads. The soil is of the richest alluvial and of the best straw berry land in the valley With the land there is water right in the Mar icopa canal and an independent lateral belonging exclusively to this tract of land, all the way from the canal to the land. l am going to put this tract on the market at $100 to s125 per acre for short time. This is far below the value of land in this immediate vicinity and l am justified in saving that the surroundings are of the best in the valley It also has the proximity Of the street car to Phoenix. If you want something that will double in value in a year or two. Here is your chance.

Precisely why the town of Bonifacio,
in Corsica, is built to the sheer edge
of the cliff which forms the sea front
age Of that part of the island is ques-
ton always asked by the traveller who
views Bonifacio for the first time, and
he reiterates his question when he OBJ
serves, upon visiting the environs of
the place, that there is plenty Of ro9sR
for the town to have spread out imam
inland direction. The early Corsicans
apparently thought that farm land was
worth more than city real estate and
30 crowded their dwellings to the dizzy
edge Of their 200 foot precipice. Ones
first impression is that these houses,
with their walls on a vertical plane
with the cliff, were purposely so stu,
ated that the body of a victim Of a
dark vendetta murder might be con-
veniently dropped out Of the window
into the sea beneath, with no one, the
wiser. Certainly there is a suggestion
of romance and mystery In the aspect
Of the town. 1t forms, at any rate, one
Of the oldest sky lines in the world.

Town without Horses or Wheels.
The town Of Funchal, in the Ma
deira islands, is town with no horses
and no wheeled vehicles. In travelling
about one either drives in a sledge or
is carried in a hammock. The streets
and adjacent roads are paved with
small and curiously smooth cobble-
stones, and from the first 1t was found
that runners were better than wheels
both for speed and comfort. For in
stance, when you come to a hill the
oxen draw your sled to the top and
are then unhitched. Your driver then
proceeds to toboggan your conveyance
gently down the other side, while the
team trots on behind. Horses are not
available in Funchal, as the nature of
the cobblestone roads would soon ruin
their feet. This is why the OK, with
his flexible hoof, is the draft animal of
Funchal. For expeditions into the
country the hammock is used. This is
slung on pole, carried on the shoul-
ders of two men, and is perhaps the
most comfortable conveyance in the
world-no jar and no need to guide it.

stomach. 1t can be rested by starvation
or by the use Of good digestant which
will digest the food eaten, thus taking

dol will wholly digest 8 900 grains of food.

There's a world of difference be-
