Most of the railroads of Ark ansas have now been gone over by the State Board of Railroad Assessors. with very little change in the assessments on main lines of any railroads. l. one instance the assessed value of a railroad has actually been lowered, it be- ing shown that the railroad was a lumber line, with all the timber cut out and was operated last year at a loss of 5000 On the the buildings, the railroads are catching it right lively in in- creased assessments, the increase in leenta alone being $l37, 450. The Iron Mountain has also caught 1t freely in additional rolling stock, the board raising the assessment $200. GOO on lo1o- motives on one branch. The Board has about completed it's labors, and when the totals are all made, it is expected that the assessments will be several mil lion more than they were last year. The board, instead of cut ting down or raising assessments is forcing the railroad to pay on all of it's property, which means more money for the state, as so much has been overlooked be- fore. The Board is composed of Governor X. o. Pindall, Dr. A. E. Moore and o. c. Ludwig.

YOUNG COUNT skINNINI.

The Skinnini estate has sunk into debt, The family plate is in hook, Their credit, indeed. is the worstest
 vet,
 Not one has a cent in his sock. So they cudgeled their brains just how
 to recup
 The fortunes these nobles have sunk, For. as they stand now, they are all
 in the soup,
 With nothing to cash in but junk. "Ha! l am da goods!" cries young
 count bold; And flies to America straight; Then returns with his pockets bursting
 with gold
 And a wife. to the plastered estate. At once Count Skinnini produces his
 pile
 Ten millions in gold. more or less; And says to the family, chuckling the
 while;
 "Dat'll las us while now, I guessi" Charles C. Mullin in Gunter's Maga- zine for September.

MESA TO HAVE NEW TELEPHONE
 EXCHANGE.

c. W. Hinchcliffe. general manager of the Arizona Telephone company, with headquarters in Tucson, was in town yesterday looking after the local business here for his company. and in cidentally was here to make arrange ments for new quartetrs for the local exchange board, as it will soon be moved from Growers place. where it has been for over a year. The new H- cation for the telephone office has not been determined upon definitely at this time, but it is understood that it is possible that it may be placed in one of the rooms of the new Chandler block when the latter is completed and ready for occupancy.
 The board now in use here is not adequate for the accommodation of the business which the company receives at this point, and as Mesa is a rapidly growing town, is a strong and good point in favor of the installation of a larger and more up-tO-date switch board to facilitate dispatching of calls

TM CHANGED NAMES
 or ARIZONA RESERVES
The Significant Derivation Of the New
 Cognomens.

The changes of name which the na- tional forests underwent in the process of redistricting just completed, were by means haphazard or arbitrary. The new names have been chosen on ac- count of their importance in local ana national history, and they Will serve for all time as reminders of the men and events characteristic of our pro gress from the pioneer days Merely to read them is to trace the salient facts of western growth and develop ment.
 The national forests in Arizona. with the significance and derivation of their names are as follows:
 The Apache national forest is named from the Indian tribe. The word is of Pima or Papago Indian origin and sig nifies alien" that is enemy" This forest has an area of 1.304,S2O acres and is administered by Supervisor D. c. Martin, with headquarters at Springerville.
 The ChiricahHa National forest re- ceives its name from two Apache words meaning great mountain. It was named after a tribe of North American Indians near the Gila river. They are included by some writers among the Giteno, or Gila Apaches. This forest has an area of 466.4g7 acres and is in charge of Acting Su- pervisor Arthur H. Zachau, with head quarters at Douglas.
 The Coconino national forest was once the home of the Supai CHavasu- pail Indian and was called "CO-ha -ne- na' by the Navajo Indians and from them the white man got the word "Coconino" and applied it to the sec tion of the country occupied by the Supai Indians. The Navajo still calls the Supai '.Cohanena" and often refers to the forest by the same name. This forest contains 3,601. .390 acres. Super visor F. C. W. Pooler, with headquar- ters at Flagstaff, has charge.
 The Coronado national forest is named for the Spanish explorer Vas quez de Coronado. Born in 151O. died in 1542 He passed up the entire length of what Is now the state of Sonora, Mexico, to the Gila river. Crossing this, he penetrated the country beyond to the Little Colorado and visited the famed cities of Cibola mentioned by Cabeza de Xaca and De Niza. From Cibola. Coronado travelled eastward, visiting several towns similar to the existing villages Of the Pueblo Indians, till he reached the Rio Grande, and from there travelled 300 leagues to Quivira, the ruins of which are well known, being near latitude 34 N. about ITO miles from Fl Paso. There he found temperate climate, with good water and an abundance of fruit. The people were clothed In skins. On his way back in March, 1542, CorO- nado fell from his horse at Tiquez, near the Rio Grande, and Is said to
