 Tucson Post: On July F there went into effect a law which will give relief to shippers, especially live stock shippers, as far as inter- state points are concerned. This is the reciprocal demurrage bill which requires, among other things that cars shall be furnished upon demand of the shipper within a given time, but requires adequate sidetracking and depot and loading facilities. As reciprocal part of the contract with the railroad, the shipper must nse the cars furnished him with as little delay as possible.
 Cananea Herald A. R. Words ley, of Douglas, was a visitor in the city during the week. Mir. Wordsley is interested extensively in cattle and feels much enthusiasm over the outlook for the year as it now stands. Range country about Douglas, he states, has benefited greatly from rains during the last month and he believes is now in shape to carry cattle through until the later rainy seasons of the year A few more good rains, of which there is every prospect, will as suredly do this. All streams are now in good condition, water holes abundantly filled and grass coming forward in splendid manner. Cat tie are already showing resultant benefits from the rains and are in much better condition than month ago, when the outlook was not encouraging.
 Tucson Post: The Rayless Gold en Rod, a large bushy weed, a native of the country, Is apparent ly getting the upper hand of all the cattle ranges in southern Ari- zona. By some people it is erron- eously called a rubber plant. It contains so much resinous matter that when pressed together 1t re- mains in that condition and, un- like other plants. has not enough elasticity in it to resist the resin ous adhesion of the leaves and return to its original shape. Be- cause of it's resinous properties the bush is highly infammable and burns readily whether green or dry. If pressed into briquettes 1t would make an excellent fuel. It does not grow more than about a foot high and from twelve to eighteen inches in diameter. For tunately it is easily destroyed by fire. Prof. J. J, Thornber, who identified the plant for the writer, states that bush even when but partially burned will die. Stock men can readily rid their ranges

Martin Alonzo Pinzon, We must not forget
that it was largely through his unstinted lib
erality that Columbus was permitted to carry
out his immortal voyage.
The second Pinzon, Vicente Yanez (what
queer names those old navigators hadD was
loyal to Columbus throughout. Treachery and
jealousy do not seem to have entered into
his nature. He was born in Palos de Moguer,
in 1860 and, like his brother Martin, provided
an eighth of the expenses of the expedition.
He was the commander of La Nina, and
shared the friendship of his chief When
the flagship Santa Maria was wrecked off the
coast of Hispaniola he rescued Columbus at
the risk of his life.
1t is said by some that he accompanied Col
umbus on his second and third voyages, but
this is disputed. 1t is certain that in 1499
he obtained concession for new voyages and
became discoverer on his own account
In those days navigation was in it's infancy;
but Vicente Yanez boldly crossed the equi-
noctia line, and losing sight of the north
star, accidentally discovered the coast of Brazil
and afterwards found the mouth of the Anna
Zon.
He was perhaps the boldest of all the Pin
IONS. During one of the voyages he discovered
Yucatan, and was called to court to consult
with Amerigo Vespucci on voyages to be made

This feeling quite destroyed that rapturous
joy and exultation which the finding. OF the
treasure had kindled. Caleb, on the con-
trary, was fresh as ever.
He could think of nothing but foreign coqn-
tries and cities, and the fun of adventure b[y

me come along and never say die.

Into this we turned, and scrambled up to
platform or loft, where we flung ourselves on
a small heap of last years corn-stalks. On
the lower floor was some straw and various
barrels, which we stumbled over as we felt
our way about.
AS we had been saluted by no barking, we
concluded that no dog inhabited the premises.

were far away in romance land, and soon he
dropped into a sound slumber.
just then l was startled by footsteps and
the buzz of voices. Two persons entered the
courthouse below.
My first feeling was that of fright. The
pursuers were already on our track, thought.
But some fragments of conversation that 1
caught soon reassured me on this point. The
intruders were only a pair of tramps like
ourselves.

start, but it proved to be that of a match

Martin Pinzon at once fell in with the plans
of the Genoese, and advised the queen to grant
him his prayer, saying that he would provide
an eighth of the expenses out of his private
funds, which he did.
When the little expedition sailed, Pinzon
had command of the caravel La Pinta, and
from the first, showed a disposition to rival
his admiral He was constantly forcing his
vessel in advance of the Others and sometimes
did not hesitate to fatty disobey Columbus.
1t will be remembered that when land was
discovered, Pinzon pretended to have been the
first to see it, and Te Deum was chanted on
board his ship.
He was avaricious, like all the old-time
Spanish discoveries, and during the expedition
he separated from Columbus off the Cuban
coast, hoping to take possession of valuable
treasure supposed to be on the island and
when he rejoined the feet, months afterwards,
he told Columbus that stress of weather had
caused the separation.
Again, on the homeward voyage, did he
separate from the admiral, and when he reach
ed Spain he was forbidden to approach the
throne, and, mortified over his defeat-for it
is believed that his intention was to forestall
Columbus, and rob him of the glory he had
obtained-he retired to the home of his youth,
and died few weeks later

1t was all I could do TO keep from crying,
but Caleb's stubborn coolness and the hard
looks our custodian cast at us helped me to
bear up pretty bravely.
;, 1t appeared from the conversation, when
the farmer and another man came in, that
they had put out the fire, and that they had
picked up our packet of bank notes which
dropped.
This brought us under peculiar suspicion
as it appeared that the Blytheport Bank had
been robbed, two or three days efore. Even
Caleb looked crestfallen when he heard this
news.
We were to be taken to Blytheport, it ap-
peared, to be examined before the police
magistrate. The farmer, our captor hap
pened to be deputy sheriff of the county.
But they gave us splendid breakfast, and
the two women the farmers wife and daugh
ter7,.were as kind to. us as if we had been
prodigal SONS of their own. Then the big
wagon was brought up, and off we went in
it to Blytheport.
The news of the arrest spread rapidly, and
when the, court was opened, the room was
fairly packed. We were stared at with as
much curiosity as If we had been the forty

of adventure and discovery He tired of it
at last, and retired to his native town, where
he wrote history of his exploits and died in
1924. He left number of descendants, and
today some of the navigators of Huelva and
Moguer boast of having the blood of Vicente
Yanez Pinzon in their veins.
Francisco Martin was the youngest of the
Pinzon brothers. When Martin Alfonso took
command of the Pinta, Francisco was en-
gagged as pilot and, like his brother was
hostile to Columbus.
Being much younger than Martin he nat
urally fell under his influence, and in conse-
quence of his treatment of the admiral, he
incurred the dislike of his other brother.
