FINE MUSHROOMS TO BE FOUND ON BISBEE
 HILLS AFTER RAINS
Rev. Brewster Says He Took Walk Upon Bisbee Noun tains After Rain and Found Several Edible Varieties.

That the very finest kinds of mush- rooms may be found on the mountains Of Bisbee in rich soil and laying in protected places, was the statement of the Rev w. H. Brewster yesterday after he had finished a meal from those he gathered early that morning.
 Mir Brewster states that they are to be found near the stumps of old trees and such places and says that the best time to find them is early in the morning after a good rain. He states that they grow large and are of a fine favored variety. Brewster also stat ed that one must know the good from the bad mushrooms as there are about as many varieties which are deadly poison as there are of the edible kind.
 "The kind to eat" says Rev Brew ster;" are those which have the thick pink salmon and dark colored gills. The white ones are, usually, deadly poison"

thin and badly done and her hands

San Diego, May 29.-According to
word received in San Diego yesterday,
the prospects for the Southern Ma

route east from San Diego, are grow

Senator Ashurs.. wired Ed Fletcher
that the appropriation for $4,000 for
the road through the Yuma Indian
reservation has passed the Senate,
and Congressman Kcttner has sent
assurances that it will pass the House.
This, it is said, will provide good

when the California Highway Com

national government will be expected
to do it's part in paving the road
through the Indian lands.
