In the afternoon in all the
schools part of the time was de-
voted to the study of the life and
deeds of Columbus.
An amusing reply was given by
one of the pupils. A teacher had
told the class of the wonderful
voyage of Columbus and how he
insisted on continuing the voy-
age after the other men were
clamoring to return. Then she
asked: who was Columbus p
with the view of hearing how
well they had followed her talk.
One little hand went up.

asked the teacher.

Mustard greens are excellent,
but | have not succeeded in get
ting any, though my Chinaman
said he sowed some seed and the
worms ate it.
Cooking greens with pork is
not essential. Simply boil in wa
terri and drain, then cook in oil,
cream, butter or other fat, as
liked.
Perhaps some would like an old
style of preparing dandelions,
watercress and the outside green
leaves of lettuce. Cut in lengths
of one-fourth inch, heat vinegar,
oil, or pork fat and pour over,
sailing to taste. The stem ends
of dandelion may be boiled if the
whole bunch is not needed.
Dandelion and watercress make
a good salad with salad dressing,
or simply oil, lemon or vinegar;
as does also green onions and salt
salmon added to the onions. All
these various relishes are whole
some appetizers.

Chrissy looked at the twins

"Please, Uncle Jacob she
said, cant Rachael and Bernice

clovers."

That's always the way. People
like you find so much luck that it
spills over into other peoples

SO live, that when thy summons
comes to join
The innumerable caravan which
moves
To that mysterious realm where
each shall take
His chamber in the silent halls
OF death,
Thou go not, like the quarry
slave at night,
Scourged to his dungeon, but,
sustained and soothed
By an unfaltering trust, approach
thy grave
Like one who wraps the drapery
of his couch
About him, and lies down to
pleasant dreams.

 Some time ago the heads of fami. lies began swarminE into the valley in the vicinity of Wilcox and now these farmers are rushing in their families. their stock and their farming inirlo- ments. At one time during the last few days the whole open space be tween the little town and the railroad station was blockaded by the teams and live stock and household goods and the settlers families. the streets having the appearance of a crowded city. No less than sixty-1ve teams were counted in one afternoon block ading the thoroughfares. In one day alone eight car leads Of settlers came into Wilcox. With the farmers came their mileh cows, their mules and horses, their pigs aRd chickens and Otker fowls; their blows and house hold utensils. Many of the new set tlers came from Oklahoma. whithcr they had come from farther east. in the hope of taking uo lands there but on their arrival they found little CT nothing left to take up in the way of goyernmeus land in tbat state, aud so came on through to this rich valley iB Arizona.
 The real estate men have the valley plotted cut on maps and all day the iilinc on these lands goes on. Each evening the six real estate men get together and cheek of their maDs the sections taken up during the day. and so conflicts are avoided The land has all been taken u.y and fenced off it is stated. as far as fifteen miles north of Wilieox.

In talking this matter over with many of the men Of te camp, l have been unable to dis cover any good reason why We should lag behind the other citis of the ter ritory in ihls matter.
 Is there no place fer a diamond?

The grounds will cost the terri tory s39,075 to acquire.
 The bill may be passed at this session. although l much doubt it." said he. Tt was introduced yesterday by Roberts. and would have been got ten through unanimously. as Is neces. sary but for the opposition of Bailey It is possible that Mir. Bailey win withdraw his oIs1rsitiOn and allow it 10 SC through. however.
 The passage of the biH making the sround the property of Arizona. would relieve future fair commissioners from any likelihood of having 10 stand per solal loss because of placing them in proper shape for the fair and failing to receive return Ot the mopey ex. pended from the territory. It will relieve the comm 'ssi""ars of a great Pare of their responsibility also"
