1t has been my lot to see In arctic
regions some hundreds of thousands
Of ieebergs close at hand, and l have
always believed them to be the most
beautiful objects on earth. but the
clouds Of the sky. close at hand, are
almost as beautiful. If you mount
above one of these majestic things,
swiftly overlapping one by one its
folds and wreaths, and If remembering
how high 1t Is you look down and see
only small green patches Of earth
through holes in the cloud carpet be-
low, you have a little thrill Of con-
ception of how lonely man would
feel falling away down there and not
being able to see the spot where he
must alight. 1t is a safe little thrill,
however. You know that you are not
going to fall Such dizziness as some
persons feel in standing near great
heights on the earth is almost I'M

thirteen feast days in each year. Our
great arch enemy, Hannah, was hang

He is one oi the fastest runners in the business and really broke the record at the A. Y. P.

 The rains this week damaged the wagon roads of the county to consid- erable extent. Col.

While the storm may not have been so severe, it neverthe- less was one of the big storms of the year. The Santa Fe suffered from this storm, large amount of trackage be- ing washed away and four bridges car ried out west of Needles, delaying trains many hours.

Of Interest to Old Soldiers or Their
 Heirs.

Any old Union soldier or sailor who served ninety days or longer in the late war. of the Rebellion, and who went west after the war and made 8 homestead entry in any state in the Union for either forty, eighty or one hundred and twenty acres, before June P, 1874, has claim coming to him from the government.
 It does not make any difference whether he proved up on his home. stead entry or simply left it.
 There were thousands of old soldiers who went to Kansas and Nebraska af- ter the war and took up eighty acre homesteads, and when the grasshop- pers and hot winds came along simply left their entries and went back East. Each of these men have claims.
 Under the Supreme Court decision, these claims are assignable. Fen s. Hildreth, of Phenix, Arizona, perfects the title to these claims and will pay the highest market price for same.
 If the soldier is dead, the widow or heirs can sell their right.
 If soldier never made an entry, he has nothing to sell.
