Tho oldest paper published in the En-glish language, except The London Ga-zette, is Lloyd's List, which made its first appearance in a dingy littlo London coffee house in 1002. There is no nows-pap-er more generally read by shippers and marine merchants than Lloyd'i, and yet feir of its readers know its very re-markable history, or that of the great commercial business that has grown up with it. About 1675 there was a coffee house in Tower street, London, kept by ono Ed-ward Lloyd, where a knot of merchants gathered at noon to discuss business and gosrip over the threatening Romanism of James IL From this small beginning has grown up one of the greatest and most powerful commercial organizations in tho world, not the least important feature of which is an intelligence de-partment, which for wideness of range and efficient working has no parallel in the history of private enterprise. As early as 1688 The London Gazette contained a fluttering notice of Lloyd's shop, and four years later the proprietor, who seems to have been a rousing good business man, moved hia establishment to Lombard street, then the center of London's wealthy and influential mer-chant populace. The astute coffee house proprietor at this time began the publi-cation of his News, a weekly paper filled with commercial and shipping informa-tion, and it became very popular with those Seventeenth century men of trade. It subsequently changed its name to Lloyd's LiBt, and ever since that time has enjoyed an uninterrupted publica-tion. Throughout the greater part of the Eighteenth century Lloyd's was the most popular place known to London mer-chants and underwriters. Lloyd himself probably died in the early part of the century, but his name and his paper had inoffaceably marked the business of that time, as it marks that of the present day. London's great business of marine in-surance owes its existence to the printed form of policy issued by the Lloyd As-sociation of Underwriters, an association that has never been known by any other name than that of the poor but popular coffee house proprietor and editor. The whole superstructure of marine insur-ance rests upon The List, which for 200 years has embraced tho collection, pub-lication and diffusion of every form of intelligence with respect to shipping. New York Times. ARIZONA AND WATEU. Plans Perfected for Turning Arid Lands Into Fertile and Profit-able Farms. , NO LA0K OF GOOD AEABLE LAND. A Proposed Dam That Will Back Water Up Stream a Distance of Ten Miles. Arizona haa no lack of arablo land. Hundreds of thousands of fertile acres lio uncultivated and unproductive all over tbe territory, needing but the touch of water to bloom with luxuriant vege-tation. The mind of man is turned to-- . ward schemes for supplying the suffi-ciency. Tho smaller streamB of Arizona are all of one clasfi, running fullest in the spring and almost failing In the summer. Those that run into the plains sink in the sands, and are lost for the major portion of the year. The question naturally arises, Why not store the win-ter water in suitablo catchment reser-voirs, to be spread on the thirsty lands at the time of the drought? This proposition hau been appreciated, as is shown by the location of dam sites for water storage purposes in many parts of tho territory. The Walnut Grove dam, owing to faulty construction, was a lamentable failure, but beforo it gave way showed by tho fine body of water .) impounded the entire practicability of the Bchemo. The Florence Canal com-pany has just finished an extensive res-ervoir in Pinal county to assist in the irrigation of the lands adjacent to the Casa Grando. Among the projected reservoirs that have been located for tho improvement of tbe lands lying below ono of the most , important is that upon New river, about thirty miles northwest of Phoenix. It is situated where New river debouches on the plain. The projectors are John King and W. C. Collier, who have been quietly working on the enterprise for years. The dam will need to be nearly half a mile in length, 820 feet in thickness on the bedrock, 00 feet broad on top and 75 foot high. Hydraulic lime for the man-ufacture of cement, limestone and other rock for tbe construction of the dam are. at hand in abundance, and can be cheap-ly quarried. Estimates from civil engin-eers of repute fix the cost of the work at less than $300,000. With the height of dam proposed the water would cover an area of eight by four miles, there being but littlo slope to the valloy abovo. Tho supply of water from the spring freshets of the river is deemed ample, but as t precaution lovols have been run to Hud-son creek, Castle creek and the Agua Fria, and it has been demonstrated that it is practicable to divert at low cost the waters of those streams into the reser-voir. The Agua Fria, at the point tapped, flows the year round. All danger of overflow can be avoided, as a natural pillway exists at the proper height two ratios back from the dam, conducting the water over a low bridge into the valley of tho Agua Fria. The land sought to be irrigated is real-ly a continuation of this valley, and em-braces over 75,000 acres of excellent soil. Many claims have already been filed in expectation of the benefits of the dam. , About eight miles farther to the west of this dam site and over a ridge is the location of a similar enterprise of fully equal magnitude. It is the property of the Agua Fria Water and Land com-pany, composed of L. II. Orme, J. P. Orme, J. D. Monihon, N. O. Murphy and William Hancock, all of Phoouix. The dam is to be situated at the narrow gorge of the Agua Fria, 800 yards above the Frog Tanks hotel. The walls of the can-yon at this point are but 800 feet apart to the height of seventy-fiv- e feet, and abovo this gradually retreat from the stream. Tho proposod dam is to be 175 feet high, with an ample width and a longth on top of about 1,000 feet. It will not bo difficult of construction. All rock and lime needed can be obtained right at hand. A dam of the dimensions stated will back the water up stream a distance of ton miles with a depth at the mouth of Castle oreek of 125 feot. At a point two niilrs abovo the dam the reservoir will be three and one-ha- lf miles in width, besides extending for some distance up Castle and Humbug creeks. The ca-pacity of tho reservoir is estimated at 40,000,000,000 cubic feet of water. This amount will supply for twelve months a canal carrying 40,000 miner's inches of water and allow for an evaporation of 5 per cent. The natural flow of the Agua Fria will more than Bupply this amount every year. The main canal will be taken from the river on the east sido about one and one-ha- lf miles below the Frog TankB station. It will run along the slope of the river bottom for a distanco, emerging on the plain three miles below the Tanks. The laud to be irrigated comprises about 75,-00- 0 acres. It is of excellent quality, especially adapted to the growth of cit-rus fruits. Phoenix Republican Manutchuaetta Women in BiuineM. A special from Bonton says; "Part Vn of the annual report of the bureau of the statistics of labor, relates to women in industry as partners, stockholders and employers. Of the 28,205 partners in eighty-thre- e industries, 1,700 are wo-men; of the 42,781 stockholders, 11,752 are women, and women are found in twenty industries, as follows: Artists, authors, boarding house keepers, clair-voyants, clerks, domestics, dressmakers, hat and cap makers, milliners, operatives (mill and factory), printers, operatives (sowing machine), physicians, seam-stresses, shoemakers, storekeepers, straw and palm leaf workers, tailoresses, teachers, teachers (music). The figures given and comparisons made show con-clusively that the presenco of women in industry has not decreased tbe number of births or marriages, nor increased the number of deaths." A Monarch's Powder Boa. A curions historical relic on view at this same house was tho powdor box once belonging to the king of Portugal, and manufactured for his majesty in Paris in 1760 by Gonnain, goldsmith to tho king of France. It is a large round box in silver gilt, and was not intended to hold either gunpowder or face pow-der, but the aristocratio and at that time universally worn hair powder. Ac-companying it is a large clothes brush mounted to match the box, and in the same precious metal, and made for tho purpose of brushing off the coat of the royal owner aftor the powdering process had been completed. Paris Letter. Burial Among tbe Z1111U. At night, all along the banks of the Znni river, I saw Indian men and women throwing handfuls of meal into the wa-ter and gesticulating with their hands. They mumbled prayers incessantly, and waved from left to right the long fleecy plumes or flowers called by them the prayer plume. A little later, at the church yard, the corpse was brought forth from a houso adjoining the piazza and deposited in the grave. It waa car-ried in a blanket by three men, and tho wail that went up at tho grave from the members of the dead one's family was pitiful in the extreme. New York World. "Tree Wool, or Wool Froduead in Nuts." The hermits of India, in the oldest mention of them, are required to wear clothes of yellow ocher color, all others being free to wear any color of vesture they pleaso. When the Greeks with Alexander arrived in India they noticed that the garment worn by the people was made of "tree wool," or "wool pro-duced in nuts." Megathenes says their robes wero worked in gold and orna-mented with various stones, and that they also wore flowered garments of the finest muslins. Dry Goods Chronicle. A Fetching Costiiuie.

In Northumberland clone he owns five castles, but it is said that the larger part of his enormous in-come ia derived from his proprietary interest in Drummond's bank.
