ern Illinois or Missouri so adapted to tlze pro
 duetion of corn as this valley along the Colorado River. With alfalfa and corn. the butter, cheese, eggs poultry and pork to be raised on twenty-acre farm will amaze those who have the largest experience in American agricultural affairs.
 The winter climate around Yuma is q thing
 so intoxicatlngly salubriOus that no words can describe it. These deserts of America, as we have regarded them heretofore seem to defy
 the ills that human nature elsewhere is so prone
 to contract and suffer from The atmosphere
 is as dry as punk, the skies cloudlessly clear,
 the air mild as possible, and every breath seems
 to be an inspiration of new life. The United States has an experiment. farm on the mesa just on the outskirts of Yuma. Hero results even more marvellous than in the valley are produced Down on tine lower levels there are little nirS of frosty mornings occasionally during December and January, but on the mesa the breath of frost never touches the most delicate vegcta- tion. Oranges grown at the Federal expert 1nent station arc unsurpassed in their delicious quality.
 Yuma is q busy, up-to-date town. The more modern improvements consist of several blocks of attractive brick buildings a three-story post office building, also of brick, and nany other nice structures Among some of the greater Improvements which are being made are a s3J.000 school building, S75 900 ice plant, fine club house for the railroad employees, a larger passenger depot, and the probability of new courthouse to cost S75,OO0. There is consider able business done there, but the people have not begun to awaken to the vast possibilities of the place. They should at once erect an up-to- date tourist hotel. It should have ample grounds around 1t and be planted with all kinds of tropical vegetation. If atmosphere were only transportablo like mineral waters and one could send consignments of this Yuma winter air to the East the inspiration of it's health giving qualities would bring 5 900 tourists every winter to the banks of the Colorado River.
 Yuma needs only to make known it's climatic attractions in the parts of the East swept every city full every winter. The fertility of the val ley below will almost make itself known with out effort oH the part of the people. But with valley full of an intelligent and industrious rural popUlatioll, producing fruits and vege- tables. poultry, eg2S. fresh milk and fragrant butter. Yuma should be one of the most de- 1ightful winter resorts in all America. There is every thing there to furnish tourists with the most hcalthful and delicious food. and if the air in that region does not drive doctors to seek living elsewhere, 1t will be because the people do EOt know how to live properly.
 It will take about three years more to com tictc the LaSuna dam, and in ten years from today the attractions Of Yuma tS a health resort and the fertility of these bottom lands will be so well known that it will require 5000 in cash to buy single acre Of 1t.

The Girl Who Works.

There are two kinds of girls in the world-the girl who works and the girl who gads. Commend us to the former. Work lends dignity to pretty girl, is an added charm to her. The girl who works combines the useful and ornamental. She might gad about, roll on sofas, gossip and read story books, but she prefers to be of some account in the world and becomes a stenogra- pher, teacher, saleslady or house keeper and bravely makes her own way. Such are the salt of the earth. God bless 'em.

REST AND SLEEP.
Advice for the Tired Woman.

FHE woman of the office or shop has
 more cauSe than the hOuSekeeper
 to wear ont in days like these.
 The houSekeeper should find time for a nap; she can got into loose cloth ing, while the business woman must fight it out until the end of the days work The tired woman comes home from the office completely Jagged out. She is nerv- OIlS; she finds she cannot rest; she rolls and losses through the night, victim of insomnia. The housewife. perhaps the mother of large family and doing her own homework. should take some little leisure in the middle of the day. if 1t only be for ten minutes. Slip away from cares and duties and throw yourself down on lounge or bed for little while. Try to relax every muscle until your body feels heavy. Then try and stop thinking; re- lax your mind; throw of worry. For shOse ten minutes or half an hour, He perfectly still This is the advice of the greatest woman'S specialist of our time, Dr. R. V. Pierce. founder of the Invalids Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y. Furthermore, he says. the woman who ia employed in stores or shops, work ing at the highest tension all day. must above all things get good nights rest. tepid bath. and cup of cocoa or warm milk before going to bed, or perhaps q little light exercise, with the window open so that you breathe pure air, will act upon the nerves, quieting them and soothing the tfred-out woman into the first sweet sIumber which leads to long, festful sleep. If such simple treatment, says Dr. Pierce, has no effect on the nervous system. then the woman should resort to some vegetable tonic which will Soothe the nerves.

Under the new policy of the Southern Pacific Company in giving publicity to facts relating to Investigations of accidents on it's various lines, the accident at Sentinel, Arizona, on July 1st is the nrst to come under the new order, The vice-presfdent and general manager having made snal investigation, find as fol- lows:
 Freight 2728 ran into the rear erFd Of freight extra 2785 while taking the siding in order to per mit the passage of east bound passehger train No. 1. It IS shown that the responsibility for the accident is divided between the rear brakeman of the freight train which was on the siding and the engineer of freight extra 2728. There was a clear view of rear lights of 2785 for 8 dis tance of three and a half miles and the engineer of 2728 stated that he knew that the preceding train was not to clear and had applied air to reduce speed, but owing to the flagnan of the pre- ceding train not dropping off at sufficient distance back of where his train had to take siding train 2728 was not under control soon enough to prevent collision. Ca boose of extra 2785 was destroy ed and four or i've oil cars dam

BY GEORGE w. BURTON, In Los Angeles Times.

1t is very far from q scmi-mellenium since three little open boats under the flag of Spain first touched the waters of the western hemi- spficrc and revealed the New World to the eyes of Europeans. It is only a little over @ century since the United States of America sprans so to speak like PallaS AtheRc from the brain of love, a completely armed addition to the family of nations. It is but little over half century since California became a part of these United States of America, and less than generation since the settlement of the Great Southwest began.
 In all the f25 years since the Republic WIS founded also in the half-Century since California became one of the States of the Union, and dur ing every year of the last thirty, realization of the vast riches Of the American continent of the territory of the United States and of this Great Southwest has been more and more as tonishing the minds of men. One would sup pose that by today we knew pretty thoroughly what the undevelopcd resources Of the Great Southwest might reasonably be expected to be- come. We have not reached the depths of this great ocean Of wealth with our plummet line yet.
 In Q residence of forty years on the Coast. the ~riter thought he knew a little about what there is on the Coast and as tftost of these years have been spent fa and around Los An- geies, he naturally had little conceft that he was pretty well acquainted With the Great Southwest.

At TER THE
SHERIFF.
Supervisors Indulge in
a Highly Secret
Session.

The Board of Supervisors had a tame
regular session last night and were on
the point of adjourning when a whis-
per or two, a knowing glance across
the table, and presto, Dwight called
for an executive session.
Harvey wanted to go home to a sick
family, but Dwight was insistent and
into executive session the city dads
went. taking with them County Attor-
ney Cathcart, their guide. philosopher
and friend.
The business of the executive session
was kept profound secret, but things
will leak out and this was no excep-
tion.
But please reserve your laughter for
more becoming occasion. In other
words don't all smile at once. It's
funny, but alas, it's sadly true.
The object of the post-session was
to get after Sheriff Iaukea for alleged
neglect of duty in allowing prisoners
to remain iH the Judiciary building
unguarded on Monday last. Led by
Chairman Hustace, the board, Cox and
Fern We're absent. by the way, dis
sected the sheriff, shredded his recent
action and generally roasted and toast
ed the head of the police department
to a sizzling turn.
a happy thought struck someone and
he asked: What can we do about to"
1t was clear the sheriff couldn't be
fired unless the formality of impeach-
ment were gone through. This, in the
general opinion, would be going a lit
tie too far. Of course, the Board could
censure the sheriff, but there was a
feeling that this wouldn't be going far
enough.
AS a compromise a committee. was
appointed to investigate the matter
and report at the next meeting.
Present were: Chairman Hustace,
Supervisor-at-large Harvey, Super
visors Kealoha, Archer, Dwight;
Clerks Kalauokalani, Buffandeau and
Hanale, Stenographer Aea, w. Lane,
County Attorney Cathcart, County
Engineer Gere, Fire Chief Thurston.
