PRESIDENT CREATES RISER. NATION ON MEXICAN
 BORDER.

Washington, May 30. = The president has issued a proclama- tiOn creating a reservation sixty feet in width along the north border of Mexico, including the state of California and the terri tories of Arizona and New Mexi. co. The purpose of tbe reserva- tion is declared in the presiden. tial proclamation to be the SUD- pression of smuggling across the international line. Private en- tries in the line of the projected reservation and such portions of it as are needed for roads are Pe- served from the operation of the order.
 Since the abolition of the old "Zona Libre," or the free zone between Mexico and the United States it has been found increas- ingly difficult to prevent smug- gling across the boundary line, hence the proclamation.

PROSPEROUS COACHELLA.

Coachella valley is producing more agricultural phenomena, according to advices from Indio. The rich section, where as high as twelve crops of alfalfa have been gathered from one piece of land in year, will ship more than 300 cars of cantaloupes this year, while the vineyards will produce five car loads of Malaga grapes-the kind which people associate with cork filled barrels.
 Another record crop is under way. There has been shipped this year zoo crates of asparagus, 2l cars of cabbage, 40 cars of onions, 1000 crates of summer squash, 3 tons of turkeys, 5000 dozen eggs, ] tons of chickens, 1000 cords of wood, 1000 pounds of early beans and many black berries.
 Estimated shipments to follow {: Three cars onions, 50,000 pounds cucumbers, 50 cars tomatoes, , cars Malaga grapes, 300 cars of cantaloupes, 10cars watermelons, , cars hogs, many fowl.
 It is reported that there is quite a movement in property throughout the valley, prices having having advanced there under the stimulus of water de- velopment and the expanding of improvements.-L. A. Examiner.

Seeing that the country as a
 whole is not ready to accept his
 advanced views on government ownership of railroads, Mr. Bry- an has come around exactly to the views of President Roosevelt as to government control. MT. Bryan has made this statement in an authorized interview, evi- dently in the hope that it will in crease his personal prestige and Obliterate the last remnant of difference between himself and the leader of the republican party. There fingers back of his change of front, however, a radical threat. He would have the railroads valued exactly on the basis of the money that has been put into them, allowing nothing for the natural appre citation of land values. With railroad rates fixed on this basis of valuation, passenger and freight charges would be i'm mensely cheapened. But there is a serious question whether such a violent upsetting of es- abolished values would not throw the country into financial panic that would be infinitely worse than the present freight rates, even though, as most shippers know to their sorrow, these rates are frequently extortionate in the extreme.

The Surgical Butcher.

A Liverpool lady had given her butcher her daily order over the telephone, and later in the day decided to change it a little and countermand an order she had given for some liver.
 Ringing up her butcher, she said: "You remember that 1 gave you an order for a pound of liver a while ago?"
 "Yes," was the reply"
 "Well, 1 find that 1 do not need it, and you need not send it..
 Before she could put down the receiver she heard the butcher say to some one in the shop: ''Take out Mrs. Blanks liver. She says she can get along with out it.

Alfalfa; 1.7O acres: This was sown May Is, 1905, yielding three cuttings of about five tons of clean hay the first season. During the sec Ond season, covered by this Timely Hint, there were seven cuttings with total of about 20 tons Of hay. The only cash outlay was S224 for irrigatng water. The labor re- Quired was, mans time, II days and team ment for this alfalfa on account of the small size of the field under consideration, and linn ited use of machinery. This crop at g. 60 to Sl0O0 ton, loose, which has been the price this season, represents a cash return of not less thar Sl20C0 for the crop; but this hay was used to feed the team employed on the place. proving to be more than sufficient for that purpose, since stack of about three tons re- mains at the end of the season.

The amount Of labor expended upon this crop was large for the area, especially at the tTanSplanting time. One days team work n preparing the land and about 32 days, men's time, were required 10 bring it through, al- though the work was not heavy and could have beeyi largely performed by boys. The yield was low owing to the desert and unfer- tiiized character of the soil, onions requiring large amounts of organic matter in the soil to give good results.

The Decline OF Mi"th.

The explanation that laughter is
disappearing on account of the sad
ness of the modern view of life is dis
cardcd by Signor f. Franceschinl, an
Italian psychologist. lie concludes
that mirth, like poetry, depends upon
Imagination, and that the develop
ment of the reasoning powers has
tended to Danish the distortion that
makes things seem funny. The more
the Imagination is brought under the
control of logic the less do we laugh.
Education is now scientific and prac-
teal and to more than smile is be-
coming characteristic of a simpler
and more natural culture, where i'm
agination still holds sway and people
have not forgotten how to laugh.

lightning Flashes.

Lightning flashes in storm are
found by an English observer to be
much less irregular in period than
they appear. Such storms have usu.
ally two foci - sometimes three -
from which the flashes radiate. and
the discharges from each come at
regular intervals. The apparent IT.
regularity is due to the varying rates
of the different centers. In storm
of July, 1905, the two foci were
about a mile and half apart. and in
an hour the northern center emitted
80 flashes at intervals of Is, 80, 40
60 and 80 seconds, and the southern
center gave 16 flashes at intervals OF
II, "a and 81 seconds. Another UNI
explained observation is that just be-
fore each great flash there Is mo-
mentary faint lighting up of the SIX.
