lar phenomenon that occurred in Msdi.

velocity through the air, with whirl.
ing, Kissing sound, something like that
ofa shell. but many fold louder. About
q minute or two after it passed out of
sight an awful explosion was heard that
shook the earth for miles around, and was
heard at O distance of fifteen miles. '4
Kansas has furnished the following
specimen Of genuine wit. Some one out

 We have reason to believe that the location of the diamond field is in the northeastern part of this Terri tory, and that Arizona may become as rich in diamonds as Africa, is not improbable; but if they have been found in large numbers III one local ity, there are no doubt other locations equally good. The field for e1plora- tion is open to all, and no haste should be indulged in buying stock in mys- terious stock company upon no other authority than the statement of an interested employee of the company. We have abundant resources to make this Territory one of the most valu- able portions of the public domain as soon as we have peace and security from hostile Indians. Knowing that we possess these resources, we have steadily tried to keep down excite ments that would bring 0 disap- pointed population. All such excite ments may enrich few who gen erally live out of the Territory, but in the end one of great injury to the best interests of the country.

Don't Let Him SWindIe.

A man named Miner, 1t will be re- membered, pretended last year that he knew where there were extensive and rich placer mines. Upon his re- presentations the Governor with two hundred and sixty men followed him for many weeks until all became satisfied that he had never discovered any mines, nor was he ever in the country before. We now learn that he is taking advantage of the dia- mond excitement to perpetrate an- other fraud. He cost the people of this Territory last year at least $100,- 900 and two or three lives, and he came near being suspended between heaven and earth as & penalty, too, for it. Should he attempt another swindle let the halter do its duty.

A LONG ISLAND TRAGlEDY-Quarrel betsceen a
Jealous Husbond and Rot tempered Wife TAe
Husband Found Poisoned and DyiHg.-Early on
Saturday morning last quarrel arose between
Harry Hamilton and his wife, of Babylon, l.. /
Jealous taunts and sharp retorts were succeeded
by words that grew hot and bitter; and exasper-
sted finally beyond endurance, Mrs Hamilton
made a rush for the bedroom, where her hus-
band had a loaded gun. She had often threat
ened to take his lie once to shoot him. and az ain
to poison him; and Hamilton, dreading the con-
sequences should she gain possession or the gun.
rushed after her, hes ded her off, and discharged
both barrels Of the frearm from the window
An hour later the report was spread that
Hamilton had been poisoned, and was diving
The neighbors fastened to his house from every
quarter, and found Hamilton stretched on the
bed at the point Of death. Physicians were
hastily summoned, and they came with anti
dotes in sufficient quantity and administered
them to him without stint, but they reached him

labelled poison" but how it came there is

great fav0rite with the "boys.~ His only great

wretched life.
