LYING EXTRAORDINARY.

there ought to be something evel more terrible in the future for som transgressors. Anxious to give truth
 full and only truthful news and at tn
 same time not omit any of importance
 we seek every reasonable source of in
 formation. Last Monday evening
 certain statements were made regard
 ing affairs at San Carlos; Tuesday
 morning they were repeated witt
 gravity and in detail by Joseph Eel.
 mar, an employe in the military ser
 vice. His position and location as
 we'll as his movements and direct
 story, combined to give credence to it;
 but owing to our doubts, we declined
 to write it up on Tuesday. Wednes-
 day came and Joseph's tale being gen.
 orally accepted as truth, under proper
 headings, we gave the following:
 Last Monday evening, Joseph
 Felmar reached Tucson from Camp
 Grant and in substance gave this re- port: A very large number of the Apaches, with the noted Es-ke-van- zln, had left the San Carlos reserva- tion with evident hostile intent or at least Tn a state of insubordination Before leaving, they "went through" ," the store of Hugus & Co. and rob- bed 1t of about $200 in money or its equivalent. A messenger was sent to Camp Grant-some fifty miles dis tant-with the news and orders; but before his arrival, eight of the ten San Carlos Apache soldiers at Grant and under Archy Mcintosh, deserted With their arms, showing either previous understanding or that the Apaches have more rapid means of communication from one point to an- other than the troops. Mr. Felmar was employed to come to Tucson and, Ii necessary, to go to Sonora to pro- cure Mexican guides and tra1lers, who had once been captives and are familiar with the Apache haunts.
 MT. Felmar was equipped with gov ernment stock and property and stop ped In Tucson on Monday evening md started (with another man) Tues lay morning for Sonora on his mis- sion: We hear that he tried to ,mploy the notorious Manuel" now n Tucson, but failed, and so far as we know, he procured no guides here.
 With others, we had some doubts bout the extent of the outbreak being arge, but putting one and another tenn and circumstance together, we ear there IS no exaggeration in our eport. ln the absence of any con- radlctory reports at this writing Wednesday,. we are bound to give he foregoing. It has been and is tlIl our rule to exercise the utmost aution in publishing news, especially # such importance as this, and if we TT, the responsibility for errors is @ livided one.
 Now, on Thursday come letters rom San Carlos and a man named Cox-hold on, we are pres ntly only prepared to say that they 'urport to have come from there-and he reported outbreak turns out to be wholly untrue. We are therefore bliged to distribute half column of ype, but could not resist giving the bove. We presume Joseph has been eading the reform journals of ate, and concluded to report in their Eyle. He would make a splendid
 reform" journalist, and if we can nd out that he has the capacity to ray Justify. we shall recommend him :, 'r other duties. The story that the c rince of liars-the Devil-wili be f lrned loose on earth again, is likely l. ever to come true. The Devil will | ever put himself in competition with u !. is more accomplished children. It e ust pain the old mans heart to V now how completely he is eclipsed & his speciality. E P. Slate yesterday report was e rculated here that, whether true or c, 1true, Felmar only reported what ft as told to him at Grant; but the d BY he told the story. nrepents n. O.
