NEW YORK, April 13.-(SpeciaI)
Harry X. Thaw, members of his fam
lily and his attorneys. are terribly
crushed by the disappointment at
tending the failure of the jury to
agree. Thaw is back in his cell at
the Tombs and is almost crazy with
grief and disappointment. Attorney
Delmas and Evelyn Thaw called to
see him today and offered words of
encouragement. There are all sorts
of rumors as to what action will now
follow.
1t is stated that Thaw will dis
charge all of his attorneys, includ-
ing Delmas, save Hatledge, the first
attorney employed in the case.
District Attorney jerome announc-
ed today that under no consideration
would the case be dismissed and that
he would vigorously oppose any eff
fort to get Thaw liberated on bail
or to get n change of venue.
It is probable that Thaw may re-
main i'm the Tombs anothes year
awaiting n second trial.
The jurors all gave out really un-
important statements today, declar-
ing that they considered every par
ticular of evidence but simply could
not reach an agreement.
The report published in the despat-
ches yesterday that the jury stood at
the last for verdict of first degree
murder and for acquittal is fully
confirmed.

ern Illinois or Missouri so adapted to the pro duction of corn as this valley along the Colorado
 River. With alfalfa and corn, the butter, cheese, eggs. poultry and pork to be raised on a 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 nave 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 Here results even more marvellous than in the valley arc produced Down on the lower levels there are little nips 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 ment station are unsurpassed in their delicious quality.
 Yuma is a busy up-todate town. The more modern improvements consist of several blocks of attractive brick buildings, three-story post office building. also of brick, and many other nice structures Among some of the greater improvements which are being made arc q S35 GOO school building, GOO ice plant, fire club-hou for the railroad employees, larger passenger depot, and the probability of new courthouse to cost S75,O0O. There is consider able business done there. but tine people have not begun to awaken to the vast possibilities of the place. They should at once erect an up-to- date tourist hotel.7 It should have ample grounds around it and be planted with all kinds of tropical vegetation. If atmosphere were only tranSportabl3 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 D 900 tourists every winter to the banks of the Colorado River.
 Yuma needs only to make known it's climatic attractions in the parts the East swept every year by blizzards and snowstorms to attract city full every winter. The fertility of the val ley below will alm6st make itself known with out effort on the part of the people. But with valley full of an intelligent and industrious rural population, producing fruits and vege- tables. poultry, eggs, fresh milk and fragrant butter Yuma should be one of the most de lightful winter resorts in all America There is everything there to furnish tourists with the most healthful and delicious food, and if the air in that region does notdrivc doctors to seek a living elsewhere, it will be because the people do not know how to live properly.
 It will take about three years more to com plete the LagunR dam, and in ten years from today the attractions O. Yuma as health resort and the fertility of these bottom lands will be so well known that it will require 5000 in cash to buy a single acre of it.

Ministers Salary.

If there is one thing in which churches, as a rule, need to be more careful, it is the matter of preachers salaries. With an in- difference and an insensibiiity which we cannot understand, many churches seem to think that a contract between them selves and the minister is no contract at all. They promise him deinite salary, then pay him whatever is convenient. The gas man, the grocer, and even the sexton must be paid, but the debt owing the minister is looked upon as altogether righteous and proper.
