Yuma Valley
Santiago Silt Loam

Like nearly all the other soils of the valley, the Santiago silt loam is composed of deposits laid down by the Colorado river. It differs from the Gila fine sandy loam only in that the particles of soil are finer. being the inter mediary soil between the Gila fine sandy loam and the Imperial loam. It is well decomposed, contains much organic matter, and is very rich in plant food. The surface covering of grayish te dark brown friable silt loan has a depth of from eighteen 10 thirty inches and IS underlain by fine sandy loam or sand. Taking into consideration the shifting nature of the river and the fact that all the overflow lands are constantly subjected to change, the existence of areas of this and other soils{n the overflow part of the valley may not be at all permanent. A few years of de position of loam or sand caused by a change in the bed of the river would be sufficient to ob- literate present soil boundaries and necessitate reclassifcation.
 Only about six square miles of the Santiago silt loam were found in the valley, the occur renee of the type being limited to d small district in the neigh borhood of the large bend in the river. This soil has a level sur face and in it's natural condition is covered with wild hemp, arrow weed, annual grasses ana WILLOWS. A small proportion of the San
 tiago silt loam contains injurious amounts of alkali and nearly all contains at least a small amount.
 Little of this soil is now culti- vated, but experience with like
 >+E !, it to be well suited to all common field crops as we'll as to some special crops. It is on a similar soil in Orange county, Califor- nia, that most of the celery pro- duced in that county is grown. while it is one of the most i'm
 portant bean soils of Ventura county, in the same state.

The Madison Ave. Nuisance

The new council will take up the question of the railroad nui- sance on Madison avenue with the railroad company at San Francisco, with the hope of re- lief. This is 3 move in the right direction and will, it is hoped, result satisfactorily to all con- cerned. All the people want in this matter is what is right and fair to both tie town and the railroad.
 This is the only basis upon which it can be permanently set> tied, and due notice is hereby given to any scrambled brain nuisance apologfsts who may contend for the public railroad imposition, who may assert that the company's charter conveys the right to run it's tracks on any street in the city-even Main street-will find that their ideas in this regard are about as rotten and lob sided as they are on most other subjects. Nobody but a hare brained imbecile could, consistently, take such 8 position against common sense, to say nothing of justice.

Valuable Horses CTGmaiGd

Phoenix, June Fire origin ating from unascertained cauSes destroyed the stable of the Pio- neer Transfer Company on South First street shortly before II o'clock last night. Three horses which were removed from the burning structure stampeded and rushed back into the flames. These were cremated, and d fourth animal was so badly burn ed as to probably necessitate his destruction.
 Clinton L4uver, one of the members of the company, who lives in a house on Center street near the stable, was awakened by the glare from the fire, and he it was who saved tue horses.
 Tor several minutes buildings in the nelghborhood were threat ened and occupants rushed thinIy clad into the street. The fire department, however, met with 20 difficulty in conhning the blaze to the table.
 A number of wagons and sev- eral set of harness, besides a stock of feed, were destroyed. The total loss will probably az gregate $2500, said to be fully ;nsured.

A Tragedy Of Eariy Days

An old gun which, from the description given, is readily rec ognized by any old timer as a Sharp's or Spencer carbine, has been found in the mountains south Of Cananea. For 8 long while the Sharp's was used in the army and was considered a most effective wea pon. They gsea, however, not rim, but cen trai lire cartridges. The old Spencer carbine shot a rime fire cartridge, but whichever 1t is, there should be thousand men in Disbee able to identify it. / Either of these guns could be had at almost any store in the territory, bought at the sale of -condemned property, of which there wene any number of them atthe different government posts. Besides, many were bought from soldiers for almost a drink of whisky. The Sharp's was con sidered a better gun than the Spencer. With it's drop block it was simplicity itself, and an less the firing pin was badly worn, they went off every time you pulled the trigger. It was, taken altogether, the handiest gun a prospector could ever hope to handle. They were single shot guns, but in this they had some advantage over the old Winchester Henry, once favor ite in the days agone. The old needle guns were too long and cumbersome to pack, but they were wicked shooters and could come about as near reaching around corner as almost any gun that was made. But the Sharp's was preeminently pros pector's gun. It was a hard kicker and a strong shooter, and being 8 single shot gun the cart ridges never mGsh roomed into one another as they sometimes did in the Winchester. But the late 6pd was less of importance in the way of gun than the fact that a bloody tragedy had been enacted, in which the prospect ors had undoubtedly gotten the worst Of it. The writer once saw where three men had been caught on an almost naked hill side and killed. Apparently taken by surprise, they had piled up a few rocks and then had died behind them. It was not known who they were nor could any thing be found about the romains that would lead to their identity. As near as could be determined the fight took place about nfty miles east of Cucurpe. From the few shells found they had probably fired less than twenty shots before the end was reach ed. One or two of them had probably fallen at the first fire Still later a small bundle of let terS was brought into the camp of the writer. They had been found near the skeleton of a man. He had been killed, or had died Of exhaustion, on a trail just where it crossed a ridge. The writer had these letters in his possession for some years and fnally destroyed them, But the hills of Southern Arizo- ma and Northern Mexico are full of just such tragedies. They have never been and never can be written up. And in a few more years they will have been forgotten altogether. - Tucson Post.
