It Is assured that the question of the relations of the United States with Cuba will enter largely into the approaching campaign, and it Is stated that the President feels the Demo crats will be less likely to offer serious opposition to a reciprocity treaty after the elections. A treaty with Cuba practically has been prepared. The Presi dent, It is said, hopes to have the reciprocity question cleared away entirely While some people are lauding John son grass as a feed and valuable plant before the regular session of Congress.

The time to do the work and the distance apart depend largely upon conditions. One thing should be borne in mind, and that Is thinning should be done before tho seeds are well formed. When peaches reach the size of an or dinary peach pit, they should come off. As a rule too little fruit Is taken off. Most successful peach growers thin from four tn eight or ten inches. Atwjut six Inches Is tho average distance. Pears should have about the same dis tance, while plums will do well If left as close again. Pioneer Killed by Lightning. A special from Phoenix Tuesday evening says: Richard Payne was Instantly killed by a bolt of lightning. This is the first death by this means that is on record in this valley. Mr. Payne had just completed threshing his crop and had placed all the agricultural manchinery and Implements.under an oak tree near the residence. The first bolt of lighten ing from the sultry atmosphere went down the branches of this tree and struck Mr. Payne who was sitting in a closet located under the tree. The thunderbolt struck the right side of his head and face and continued on down to his feet, leaving a red spot to mark the course of its deadly path. The burning of his whiskers was tire only evidence of disfigurement. The deceased was born on the farm on which he met his death 28 years ago, and was christened Richard Finley Payne, being the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. C. T. Payne, highly respected Dloneers of this valley. Another Strike is Imminent.

A month ago Olafsen, with his elght- een-year-old daughter and son of twelve, came Into the Picacho Blanco couhtry, when the rush of prospectors Into that country had just begun. Olaf son lackiiy fell upon a very rich piece of placer ground, and In a brief time he, his son and daughter were ¡tanning out large quantities of the glittering dust. On a ledge far up a hillside from bis placer fields Olaf sen dug out several pockets of ntig gets. In his cab in was stored a quantity of gold reaching well up Into the thou sands. Ramon, his trusted man, advised Olafsen to send his gold to a safe place, but the Swede laughed and de clared he could not leave his work to look after his stored wealth. One day Olaf- Ben fell ill. and from the Mexi can camp below a Mexican doc tor came. For days the min er’s daughter watched at his bedside, and he steadily grew worse. Finally In total exhaus tion she left Ramon and the doctor to watch by the sick man and retired to the main room of the cabin. Half whispered talk in tbe room adjoining Froused her, and, going to a crack in the wall, she peeped through. The doc tor was giving her futber a potion and Ramon, tbe traitor, was pulling the boards from the floor where lay the bidden gold, where he bad spied and watched Olafsen place It. Seizing her father’s repeating rifle, she threw open tbe door and covered the Mexicans. Ramon cowered on the floor, but the doctor rushed for the girl. A bullet met him half way, and he lay still where he fell. The young eon of Olafsen rushed in at the gun shot, and while Mary kept the faithless Ilamon under her aim the lad bopnd tbe Mexican tightly. It required but a glance and a whiff of the medicine to tell tbe girl that the doctor had been slowly killing her fa ther. Hours of hard work by the girl brought him back to consciousness, while her brother climbed the moun tain in the rear before dawn and has tened by a circuitous route to the near est white camp, twenty miles away. Early in tbe day the girl saw several Mexicans coming from below, doubt less in search of their countrymen. As the nearest came tn sight she fired a shot over his head and all day kept her watch, firing occasionally to show she was still watching closely. All the next night in tbe dense dark less she kept her finger on tbe trigger. Once a noise at the window and one at the door drew her bullets there, and she was not molested. In the early morning the miners came, and a doctor followed. Olafsen recovered rapidly, and tbe miners escorted him and bis family and his wealth to safety and the treacherous Ramon to jail, The body of tbe Mexican doctor they bur- led in the canyon.

Houses One cannot help but wonder why it is that “Uncle Tom’s Cabin’’ always proves a drawing card, and yet there Is nothing very wonderful about It when once the plot and presentation of thia realistic drama is taken into consideration. We have read “Uncle Tom's Cabin” as many as twenty timesand always with absorbing in terest; and so, too, we haye seen it presented on the stage forty times, and it seems as if we enjoy the last better than any previous rendition. There are some plays like “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” and “Rip Van Winkle” that will never wear out. There is that about the plot of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” a combination of drama, comedy, wit, humor and pathos, all blended so naturally and realistic that the audience lives through it all, become part of the players on the stage, and have their sympathies aroused to a degree that makes them feel as if they were witnessing a real drama of eyeryday life.—Ingersoll. The Warren & Day Co., present the old drama in Jacksonville Aug. 20th in a huge tent; only one per- pormauce will be giyeD. Governor Geer Returns. Governor Geer arrived back from Crater Lake Tuesday afternoon and took the 4:52 train for Salem, being called back by important busuu^a. The governor was highly delighted with his trip and declared Crater Lake to be the grandest and most wonder ful sight that he had ever seen. All the party were well and enjoying them selves at the time Governor Geer left them. H. J. Matoon brought the gov ernor tn from the lake. He left here Friday morning and caught up with the party at the Rogue river bridge that evening, but as the governor had determined to see Crater Lake, and the message Mr. Matton brought not indi cating that his return was an urgent matter, he went on to the lake with his party, they arriving there Sunday afternoon, having camped Saturday night at Silver camp. Monday morn ing he started with the governor for Medford, making the return trip in a day and three-quarters.
