ParSOn is Dead.

For ten years the Sentinel has had one friend that was true, unselilsh and constant. His name was Parson, and he was only dog; but rarely is. there seen such combination of intelligence and kindly affection as were exhibited in this noble animal. But Larson IS dead, and the Sentinel is in mourning.
 Parscn had as usual accompanied his master to supper and they were return ing to the office, when Col. Darlington stopped moment to talk with some friends. The dog ran across the rail- road tracks and then looked back to see if his master was following. Seeing that he was not, the animal started as though going to ths office, but sudden ly turned and darted back across the tracks, when big switch engine came laundering down upon him and crushed out his life instantly. The engine must have been running at least twenty lniles m hour, and the poor dog had no show at all. ,.
 Parson was triple-cross blue Scotch and there never w:.s:a brighter animal of the species, which are noted for re- markabIe intelligence. It would take columns to describe his many good traits. the best of which was his stead fast friendship and devotf~a to his master. He had one peculiarity, diff ferent perhaps from any other of the dog creation, and that was his passion for lemons. Parson would choose Il lemon any time in preference to juicy steak, and he ate at least one every day and had done so for years. Partly in respect for this, we buried the man. gled form of our friend in the Sentinel yard beneath the foliage of lemon tree. If there is dog heaven Larson will be there.
 The late Senator Vest of Missouri was once reluctantly drawn into a case wherein one man had sued another for killing his dog. Senator Vests only part in the trial was to address the jury, but in doing so he paid the most eloquent tribute to a dog that was ever delivered. From that address we ex- tract the following:
 "The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world. the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treach- erous, is his dog. A mans dog stands by him in prosperity and poverty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his masters side. He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer; he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounter with the roughncss of the world {; he guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were prince. When all other friends de- sert. he remains. When riches take wings and reputation falls to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in it's journeys through the heavens.

Beautiful Music.

Those who like fine music should not fail to hear the Wurlitzer Harp just installed at the resort of Charles Gilroy. This is not the mystical 'harp of a thousand strings" but the real thing, which produces melody that makes you think of the trundle bed, the ''old swim min hole," the babbling brook and other joys of boyhood. The Wurlitzer harp is new in Arizona, but is sure 10 grow in favor. Ernest Trautman is sole agent.

Big Strikes Near the King.

George w. Norton was down from Mohawk Tuesday, and reported that another big strike, eqalling the May hew discovery, was made few days ago very cio;e to the King of Arizona by Frank Amarisca. He also reports that recent developments on the May hew property under the new manage ment have uncovered q body of ore of the fabulous values of S30, ,0J0 per ton $15 a pound! Whether the rich body body is extensive or not, Col, Norton could not say, but it is certainty that the Mayhew mine promises to develop into the biggest gold producer in Ari- zona, if not in the entire Southwest.
 Felix Mayhew has taken an option on the Amavisca strike near the King, and will develop the property, which looks about as good as the strike that he recently sold for S350,000.
 Col. Norton says there are hundreds of prospectors in the King of Arizona and Quartzsite districts and other big strikes may be looked for at any time. AS sometimes happens, the recent dis coveries in Yuma county of importance have all been made on ground that has been run over and prospected more or less for thirty years. The precious metals are elusive, apparently, only until the right man cones along and stumbles onto them. And yet some people contend there's no such thing as luck.
 Speaking of luck, according to Col. Norton a man is lucky to haze an abid- | ing place in the Mohawk country. One can take his choice of two very pleas ant diversions there. He can start out any morning before breakfast and find either gold mine or q mine of mes quite honey which the wild bees have stored in the caves or crevices of the rocks The honey is5 like nectar. But this condition is not to remain. L. B. Noodle and MT. Palmer are conspir- 1
 | ing to check this riotous production oi sweetness, so much of which is wasted on the desert air, and have it cached in less remote and more easily acces- sible place, and utilize the honey both | for household and commercial purpose. Tn other words, Messrs. Modie and Palmer have started in to r1unG up and hive all the wild bees in the country and domesticate them, and this is easy. l All they have to do is to capture the queen of each colony and hold her Ill sight of her loyal subjects. They will come through and be delighted to take their new and modern apartments for their queen is supreme and they reck not of the king, who may leave the country and establish new family rela- tions elsewhere if the new arrangement doesn't suit him.
 Modie and Palmer expect to have the largest apiary in the west at Mo- hawk Summit, and in order to handle their immense output of honey will have a number of tanks of immense capacity near the railroad track for convenience in loading and shipping.

Strike on Giia Valley, Globe and

Freight conductors and trainmen on the Gila Valley, Globe and Northern railway struck yesterday for ten per cent increase in wages and a reduction in hours from eleven to ten, to conform with the agreement made at Chicago. The demand for shorter hours involves twenty-six men in all. Passenger trains continue on schedule, but freights were all returned to terminals yesterday when the crews went on strike.
 Superintendent Mallard informed the striking employees that President Ran dolph had refused to treat with them and ordered them to return to work or their places would be filled by others. The position of the railroad is that the men struck without giving the compa- ny sufficient time to consider the de- mands.

REPORT IS ABSURD
MEXICO WOULD NOT SELL LOWER
 CALIFORNIA.
Ambassadors Through His Secretary Says That State Department Has Made No Such ORer to His
 Government.

Washington. July s.--The Mexican Ambassador, through Mir. Land. Sec retary in charge of the ofiice at Wash ington, today said:
 There is not one word of truth in the statement published by the press about negotiations between Mexico and the United States for the sale of Mag daIene Bay and Lower California. The subject has never been faenfioneds by the State Department to the Mexican Ambassador and besides. there Is not one inch of Mexican territory that could be purchased at any price under any consideration"
 The State Department officials strongly deprecate what they describe as the periodic revival of these stories about the acquisition of Mexican terri tory because their publication is in- variably followed by an outburst of irritation and suspicion in Mexico that requires the best efforts of American diplomacy to subdue.
 It Is said that Magdalene Bay Is un- suitable for a naval or coaling station. It has been customary when the Pa cific squadron repaired there semi-an- nually, to send a collier with the ships to keep them in coal To relieve the navy of this trouble 1t Is now proposed to anchor a hulk in Magdalene Bay which can be kept filled with coal by some contractor from this coast, and thus serve as the base for a supply for the American ships when they enter the bay for target practice.
 It Is said at the State Department such a hulk could only be permanently moored with the consent of the terrl- torial sovereign, which, in this case. is Mexico Several months ago permits sion was sought to thus station the coal hulk and the Mexican government very freely assented.

VIEWS OF DEWEY.
Admiral Sees Nothing But Pacific Meas
 ure I'm Tranafer.

ure In Transfer.
 New York, July s.-Admiral Dewey. who is sojourning for the summer at Richfield. N. Y. is quoted in an inter- view published in The American today as saying in regard to the transfer Of the battleship fleet to the Pacific:
 Tt is a pity we have not ships enough to keep powerful fleets just both oceans, but since we have not 1t seems that in the interests of peace 1t Is best at this time that our fleet should be in the Pacific.
 This cruiser transfer or whatever you like to call 1t is mission of peace. I don't think 1t likely that this country will become seriously involved with any power. But if the trouble should come by any chance, 1t Is well to be stsily prepared for 1t.
 |. @It is necessary for us to hold the balance of sea power on the Pacific. The defences on that coast are not up to the standard of the Atlantic. That the nation that has this power controls the situation, was proven in our war with Spain.
 on the island when Cerveras fleet flit- ted out of the harbor of Santiago de Cuba. With the sinking of the rect the war practically ended.
 "Fortunately the United States Is so big and has such vast internal resour- ces that 1t cannot be bottled up as were the Spaniards. but the necessity for power on the seas remains"
 In discussing the possibility or the fleet going to the Philippines the ao- miral said:
 "I would say that unless the danger was most eminent it would not be ad- visable to concentrate large fleet with hundreds of officers and thousands or men in Philippine waters. The climate e is not right, as I know from personal experience
 q believe one of the reasons we had such an easy thing over the span iards was they had been so long Tn that enervating climate. l am certaln that we would not have fought so well when we left as when we entered.
 "An enemy might take the Philip hines and Hawaii but as soon as we met them on the sea, they would nave to give them up. The very presence or our sea force in the Pacific will serve every purpose"
 Admiral Dewey says there should be no trouble in taking the fleet around the horn into the Pacific. The oatt'e- ships. he said, should have no more difficulty than a ferry has in crossing to Hoboken. It was merely question of coal and a question of dollars. so far as leaving the Atlantic coast un- nrotected by the transfer of the fleet Admiral Dewey said there was nothing to fear. There were no enemies to threaten the Atlantic coast. he said. ahd even if there were the army could take care of them The admiral said the coast defenses here are in excl lent shane. In closing the interview Admiral Dewey !ntimated that he saw twn nossible effects of importance in ths transfer of the fleet. He believes if will urge the construction of anoth- ar Atlantic fleet with the ships now building as nucleus and he hopes 1t will stimulate and hasten the comple- lion of the Panama Canal
