Scott, leading merchant of Quartzsite, handled $100,000 in placer gold taken from the gulches within a radius of fifteen miles of his store. He estimates that during this time as much more has been taken out that did not pass through his hands. Scott is in Phoenix today from Quartz site on business, and in speaking of the development work that is in progress in that section spoke especially of the Colonial Mining Company after men tioning half a dozen that arc preparing for big operations later. For the past two weeks the Colonial company has had its big cinnabar plant in operation and already the quicksilver is beginning to pour out of tin ore. The roaster has a capacity of forty tons daily, and as soon as it is in perfect working order will be run to its capac ity. Thirty men are now at work on the Colonial property. Scott has resided in the Quartzsite section for the past fifteen years. In his opinion the mining world is just beginning to wake up to the possibili ties of that district. Sore Nipples.

Yuma Project 8s The engineer in charge of the Yuma irrigation project, Arizona-California, reports that the maximum discharge of the Colorado river for the onth of April was 35,000 second feet, the mini mum 12,900 second feet. On the Arizona side of the Laguna dam the concrete walls have been car ried into the. outer coffer dam, thus making this feature of the work secure. Work is also progressing on the exca vation of the sluiceway and placing of rock in the dam. About 250 men have been employed, working in two shifts. On the California side the concrete walls have been well advanced toward the outer coffer dam, and a steam shove! has been installed to take the place of derrick in excavating for the sluiceway. Qn the shore end of the dam the concrete walls have been ex tended into the bed-rock and the pave ment on that portion about completed. Two hundred men have been employed on this side. The reservation levee Is now com. plete from Yuma to the Laguna dam, with th,e exception of the brush de fences which were also completed dur ing April for about seven miles. The railroad along this levee was operated during April, giving a round-trip pas senger service daily besides the work train service. Work on the Yuma valley has been finished for ihe season. The levee is 'now intact from Yuma to the Mexican boundary, and for this entire distance it is sufficiently high to stand any Colorado rise of record, and all but two miles of it is high enough to keep the highest known Gila liood The Farmers' Gravity canal is in shape to supply water. The pump on ihe farmers' pump canal has been op erated continuously during April. A comparison of the flow of the Nile and the Colorado river of the west, which has sometimes been termed the American Nile, is given, in Water Supply Paper 211, just published by the geological survey. The maximum flow of the Colorado is about 110,000 second feet; that of the Nile is about 351,000 second feet; while the minimum flow of the Colorado is about 250o sec ond feet and that of the Nile about 14, 500 second feet. Like the Nile the Colorado i.- sub ject to an annual rise that comes at the the time when it is most needed for irrigation, but as the stream is far be low the level of most of the irrigable lands its waters are available for use on u comparatively small area, though two pumping plants at Yuma and sev eral others op the river above the town lift water for irrigation. The World's Best Climate Is not entirely free from disease, on the high elevations fevers prevail, while on the lower levels malaria is eng countered to a greater or less extent, according to altitude. To overcome climate affections lassitude, malaria, jaundice, billiousness, fever and ague, and general debility, the most effective remedy is Electric Hitters, the great alterative and blood .purifier; the anti dote for every form of badily weakness, nervousness, and insomnia.

Lewis, of No. 96 Deaborn street, Chicago, III., prints on the back of hi busiue.-s card a short statement headed, "Our Creed." He sends it. here, saying: "Tliis is worth printing as an editorial . " ' So it is, and here is the creed: Do not keep your sublime love and tenderness sealed up until your friends are dead. Pill their lives with sweet usss; speak approving, cheering words while their ears can hear them, and while their hearts can be thrilkd and be made happier by them. The kind things you mean to say when they are -gone, say before they go. The lowers you mean to send for their coffins, send to brighten and sweeten their homes before they leave them. If my friends have alabaster boxes laid away full of fragrant perfumes of sympathy and affection which they intend to break over my dead body, I would rather they would bring them out in my weary and trouble:! hours tnd open hem thj.t. 1 imy be refreshed and cheered by them while 1 need them. L would rather have a plain coffin without Mowers, a funeral without an eulogy, thau life without sweetness of love and sympathy. Let us learn to anoint our friend beforehand for burial. Post mortem lundness does not cheer the burdened spirit. Flowers on a coffin cast no fragrance backward over the weary way. That is pretty writing, full of one. very good idea, which is, treat people decen'ly while they are alive, instead of waiting to buy Mowers for them when they are dead. Nobody knows except the Angel Ga brielhow many repentant, affection ate words have been spoken into dead ears, too late. Do good to others, show them kind ness while they are alive. Do good yourself with your own money while you are alive and well. There is a good eld Talmudic saying which we repeat: "What you give in health is gold, what you give in sick ness is silver, what you give after death, is iron.1' The affection that you give only after death is a grim joke.

George DeFrance, a well-known character about town, died at the hos pital last Friday morning from what the attending physician pronounced "heart-failure." lie had not been well for several weeks, but not until a few days before his death was his condition thought to be serious. He was. .taken from his room to tbe hospital last Wednesday and his friends hoped that he would rapidly recover under the care and attention he would receive there, but his stomach was in such con dition that food could not be assimilat ed, and instead of growing better he rapidly declined. Death came while he was sitting on his bed trying sto partake of nourishment. DeFrance came to Yuma from Gold field, Nevada, about eighteen months ago. He had formerly done newspar paper work and for u while was so em ployed here. He had a wonderfully re tentive memory, was well educated, and as a story-teller was a royal enter tainer. He excelled in wit and repar tee, but had a little too much of the vitriolio in his make-up to attract and retain friends. Still for friends De France was not lacking, and there are many here who deeply deplore his dea th. He was about 48 years old and was born in Pennsylvania. In keeping with his many known peculiarities he left absolutely no tangible clue as to his family connections or relatives and repeated efforts to locate any of them have been futile. The funeral took place from the ,1'ohnson .V Bowles un dertaking rooms yesterday. Scottish Rite Alasons Celebrate. The anniversary of the founding of Rose Croix Chapter of the Scottish Rites of Masonry was celebrated at the home of Mr. and Mrs. O. C. Johnson in the Cotter building last Thursday niirht. The parlors were beautifully decorated witli pepper boughs, palm leaves and geraniums, and the banquet table, which was spread in tbe hall, was banked with roses, carnations, lillies and sweet peas. Twenty-three persons were present and that they all enjoyed the event is putting it mildly. After an hour pleas antly spent at the festal board all re tired to the parlors to enjoy a feast of music. Mrs. W. O Harris presided at tbe piano and her music was highly praised by the guests, who evidenced their eng joyment by a vote of thanks. A male quartette consisting of Dr. Clymer, O. C. Johnscn. C. M. Smith and P. J. Miller rendered some popu lar airs, Mrs.' Harrta furnishing" tbe piano accompaniment, r. M. Smith gave s song and dance as a climax to the fun of the evening, and the guests then were ready to depart in a gleeful mood, having greatly enjoyed the full evening. Those present were Capt. Thomas Rynning and wife, Mr. and Mrs. P. T. itobertson, Mr. and Mrs. K. Frankel, Mr. and Mrs. Gus Livingston, Mr. and Mrs. P. J. Miller, Dr. Clymer and wife, Harry Brownstetter and wife, O. J.

The ! vein .found in the shaft is the best of water for drinking and apparently there is an inexhaustible supply for all purposes. The Yuma Ice Co.'s soda water is the best. Only pure, distilled wateris used in its manufacture, therefore it is also the most healthful. Drink no other. Big Watershed.
