Further Particulars.
The shooting in Bisbee of Bob
Clark, who was well known in Tomb
stone, was the topic of conversation
yesterday. From G. S. Bradshaw who
drove the stage over yesterday, the
Prospector learns that the wounded
man was still alive when the stage
left Bisbee, at 1 o clock p. m. Dr,
Goodfellow, fortunately happened to
arrive in camp just before the shoot
ing occurred, and performed a most
remarkable operation ou the wounded
man. He opened his abdomen, took
his intestines out and laid them on
his chest, took about two quarts of
blood from the cavity, he having bled
internally, picked out the bullet, sew
ed up several places in the intestines
which had been cut by it, and replaced
them, sewed up the skin, and the
wounded man was conversing with
the doctor in a short time afterward.
The doctor was assisted by Mr. Perk-
111B, who has a drug store in the camp.
Harris, who shot Clark, is in cus
tody. The young lady who was walk
ing with him at the time of the diffi
culty was shot through the arm by a
stray bullet from Harris pistol. Clark
was unarmed, although it was claimed
by Harris that he was, and that he
fired the first shot. No pistol was
found on him or near him, his own
pistol being found in its accustomed
place at his house. The number of
shots fired are variously estimated by
those who heard them to have been
all the way from two to four. Pros

If we have any thing to say about it.
Soon after going on board a steamer we
noticed a little pewter instrument that hung
to the boatswain's jacket On such a sim
ple thing you would not suppose a man
could make more than one or two sounds.
but that little instrument can play a hun
dred tunes, and at its call cables, cordage,
rigging, sails, colors, boats and anchor re
spond, and the crew fly swifty from
hammock to capstan and from capstan
to ratlin. After eight days of head
wind we heard the boatswain's long,
keen, resounding whistle. It meant that
the wind had changed and the sails must
go up. There was in that pewter waistla
more music than in any harp we have since
heard, and when it fell down again from
the boatswain's lips we re-examined it
to see where all that chirrup and glee of
sound and shrillness of blast could hide
themselves. Thus we sail on in life, and
sometimes in the teeth of a head
wind, and it is tough navigation.
Our whistle, dangling to our neck.
seems of no use. Every thing is
against us, but after awhile there is a
change in the moon, and the wind that was
adverse wheels around and into our favor.
Then we take up our whistle and, all ha'j'ia
on deck, the sails arise and the port looms
up in the distance. If at such a time wo
make more noioo with our mouth than wa
ought to charge it to the ooatswoin s
whistlo.
60, cUo, we wouid be lass hard on all
kinds of frolicsomeness. For instance,haz
ing at college is to be reprehended, but it is
no worse now than it has always been.
It seems that somo time ago the students
of a college disarranged the store signs, in
jured street lamps, sang discordant songs,
and disturbed tuo village until a commit
tee of tho citizens waited upon the mayor,
and a largo group of the young men were
arrested, taken before the authorities,
threatened with the penitentiary, and
their names telegraphed throughout
the land. People say: "What are
our colleges coming to?" and "What
a generation of wayward young
men are marching on to take possession of
our institutions ! If staid, orthodox, solid
colleges do so, what may we expect of insti
tutions reckless and anti-Calvinistici"
My friends, there is no cause of alarm;
the boys are doing just what their
fathers and grandfathers did before them.
As long as I can remember I was shown
the place on the roof of the college
building where one bright morning
there were found a load of wood
and a mule attached to tho load, all
raised to that bad eminence by the
sophomore class during the night some
ot the men engaged in the achievement
afterward Senators of the United States
and doctors of diviuity. I reprehend the
young men who in Princeton put an under
taker's sign on an apothecary store, and I
chide them to be more careful, while at the
same t mo I give it as my opinion that they
sometimes have overheard the recital in
somo minister's study, or lawyer's offloe, of
the college prank in which their fathers
and grandfathers participated. Boys will be

anything. While I set myself against all
youthful mischief, as every one must, and
suggest that when these young men sing at

who do nothing but go a-shopping, and are
you going to take up my Umo for noth

perating monosyllables. When you point
out a defect in tho fabric, ho asks : "Do yoJ
expect to find any thing perfect under the
sun(" Whilo you era meditating whether
or not you had better tako tho goods, he
says: " You need not have it if you don't
want it " As you quietiy suggest that you
saw something a littio cheaper at the next
store, he howls Et you: "Go there and

after you, and you go down the street

you came in contact with a snappy merchant.

and approaching ripeness. The grain
was taken from the Utley form, sit
uate four and one-half miles northeast
of Phenix.
It is a remarkable showing for this
season, as it will be remembered that
it is a volunteer crop and has neither
attention aor water, and we are in
formed that there is a very large field
of this grain growing on the farm.

theless parents should not imagine that all
is lost because their sons aro sometimes a
littio frisky, and public officials ought to
be lenient in their chastisement These
young men do not need a ceft in the peni
tentiary, as I nave seen it hinted, but they
need a private talk by some kind old man,
judgo or professor, or college president,
who will put his spectacles up on his
forehead and take the young man by the
hand and tell him of the great possibilities
that are open oefore indastryand sobriety,
and of the grief that his ill behavior will
bring to parental hearts so anxious for
his wcifare, and then say: "That Is
all, my son." But this throwing our
selves back on frigid dignity and in merci
less condemnation of tho present, as
though the past had ail the virtue and all
the honor and all tho propriety, is an as
sumption hypocritical and unjustifiable.
How I am resolved, and will you, kind
reader, join me in tho resolution, to bo iu
good humor with men and women, boys
and girls, and sweetan our judgments. If
peoplo want to whistle let us join in the ex
ercise, and if boys will bo boys, let us not
conclude th?y are going to ruin.
Wo know peoplo so genial that their lace
is always full of sunshine and there is no
night there. When they have trouble we can
scarcely tell whether they are crying or
laughing. Tho wave of tears dasUing

others who aro explosive and gunpowdery
under slight provocation. There is such a
thing (who would have thought it?) a3 a
snappy editor. When you enter his edi
torial rooms ho does not look up for a long
while. You stand with your hat In hand,
thinking what a luxury it would be to be
asked to sit down. Whilo you are meditat
ing the best way of attracting his atten
tion he suddenly looks over his shoulder
and spits out: "What is it!" There is a
flash in the eye and a venom in the tona
that you feel yourself a vdlain, though
previously you had supposed yourself hon
est. Before you get through telling him
what you want he is at another editorial,
and ho finally ruts you off by telling you
he can not attend to you now. You back
out with apologies for interruption, but in
wardly resolving that you will never risk
your life again in an editorial sanctum.
There is such a thing as a snappy railroad
conductor. When he announces the namoof
a depot he bites oft the first letter and tho
last syllable. It is at your peril you nsk
him tha name of the next place. Whilo
you are deciding in which of your eight
pockets you put your ticket, ho gapes upon
you devouringly, as much as to say : " I
have you now ; you expected to get
a ride without paying for it, eh!"
If you venture to tell him that the
car is very cold, he will freeze you
still worse with a wondering stare.
If you ask him why there is no water
on the train, ho will throw over you the
wet blanket of a curt reply, and that is
water enough. He is snappy to tho old
lady who is too long in getting off, and the
old gentleman who is too long getting cn;
The teachers in convention at Sacra
mento last week discussed the use of
the bible in the schools without an
agreement. It ought to be ruled out
of the schools, not because it is the
bible, nor because it is the Christian's
book of books, but 6imply because it is
not a school book, was never intended
for one, and but few adults understand
it alike. If kept entirely away from
public schools, it will be more revered
by the children and much useless con

The productiveness of the lands of

some of the results obtained by thor

credited in the less favored sections of

most successlul farmers. Last season
one of his principal crops was pota

two crops on the same land. His first
planting, in March, produced four tons
to the acre, and from the second plant

per acre. If there is any" spot in the

appropriation is a particularly vicT
job, and the country would be well rid
of it by allowing the promoters of the
scheme to name the sum they want
from the treasury so that it can be
presented to them outright. The best
of the lands it is proposed to improve
is held b' railroads and other corpor
ations, but even if this were not the
case, the proposed expenditure of mil
lions on the arid wastes of the Far
West is a direct attack on the land
values and the future prosperty of Mis
souri, Illinois, Arkansas, Texas, Ten
nessee, 'Mississippi and other States
where the value of farming land is
low and where more population is
needed.
It is criminal for the government'to
take the money these States pay in
taxe8 and use it to divert immigration
from them to the sand and sage brush
regions of the Far West. In the Cen
tral West, the Southwest and the
South, there are still millions of acres
of uncultivated land waiting the plow.
It does not require irrigation. Much
of it most of it, is far above the
average of arable land anywhere. It
is in the hands of the States or of pri
vate parties, it is true, but it is cheap,
and people who settle on it; with no
more capital than a mule, a plow, an
axe, a hoe, and a determination to
work, can easily become independent
landholders. It ought to be the policy
of the government to encourage this
settlement instead of turning immi
gration into the rainless deserts where
the only hope of a livelihood for the
settler depends on government lakes
and ditches, to be due at the expense
of many millions of taxes taken from
land poor people in the Central
West, Southwest and South. The
people of these sections are making
every effort to encourage immigration,
for they have come to understand that
until their population is increased
their wealth in land increases their
poverty in money. In the Southwest
and South, especially, the landholder
can seldom cultivate more than
small portion of his holding, but he
must pay State, county and school
taxes on all of it at the same time he
is paying to the national government
on all the necessaries of life the taxes
U6ed in such schemts as this irrigation
jobbery born of a surplus resulting
from excessive taxation and resulting
itself not only in perpetuating high
taxation, but in diverting money from
the land-poor people of the States on
which this burden of taxation falls
heaviest.
While Arkansas, for instance, is in
viting immigrants to come and culti
vate the richest land in the United
States, while Missouri has thousauds
of unoccupied acres that will yield
more for simple plowing than these
desert lands could be made to yield
under any hothouse system of forcing
at government expense, the national
government has countenanced a job
which can have no other success than
that of drawing ignorant and un
fortunate immigrants of the "Martin
Chuzzlewit" class to the Alkali Edens
in the Great American Desert.
The legislatures of the States most
affected ought to let the District of
Columbia know that they have rights
and a disposition to maintain them.

Women as Surgeons.
"Women as physicians we are becoming
reasonably familiar with. That is, we no
longer consider it out of taste for a lady to
be a doctor. But women as surgeons are
more rare. In Switzerland they are pro
nounced to be the most proficient m the
medical schools and hospitals. One pro
fessor says : " The women are particularly
dexterous in handling muscles. Their
small, taper fingers give them an advantage
over the males, and their eyes are quicker
to detect details and minutiae." These two
points are strong ones. Do not all the edu
cation and training of woman tend to make
her abler to observe small details, whereas
the training of men works to encourage the
summing up of items ; that is, they argue
better, when the woman sees more exactly.
Women are said to make remarkably apt
mioroscopists. "Male students openly op-
