BLACK AND WHITE.
A White Man MaTries a BuIatao
woman


Last night Charles Benson, white
man, was arrested by detective Simonds
on the charge Of unlawfully intermarry-
ing with a mulatto named Hattie Neal.
Last September Charles fell in love with
Hattie and asked the negro pastor Of
Philips Chapel in Chelsea il such mar.
rage could be legally consummated in
Tennessee, he having some doubts on
the point. And he added that he ia
tended to take Hattie to Arkansas and
get married in that State where such
things are Iegalized. The colored pastor
of Phillips Chapel stated that it was all
right and that be had married several
like couples, i being authorized under
the civil rights bill, etc. So Charles and
Hattie obtained license and we're united
by the negro pastor. They have been
living in Chelsea, but they now rest in
the dungeons OF Castle Winters, on
Adams street, they having been unable
to furnish the bond of $4,000 each de-
manded by the Recorder. Mr.. Benson
does not bear the best reputation in the
world in police circles, and the probable
tiles are that both parties, as well as the
preacher, will be indicted by the Grand
Jury the otfense being punishable with
Imprisonment in the penitentiary.

Capt. lille is permanently identified with rail- roads and steamship interests of the mid dle and western States.

WE believe that it is one of the most sacred duties we owe to our fellow men to help them when in need and in trouble, but there is a class of peopfeson this coast. denominated "bummers, that are the most despicable of all of Gods creatures. They will not work and they are much in the way of others who would. They rare- ly ever beg, oh! no, they are above that, but they ask for loans and they strike as deep as they think their customer will stand. If they can't get S20 they will take five, and even a dollar will be accepted. We have met these creatures and fed them for nearly quarter of a century. We have seen dissipation kill many but a new crop arises to take their places, and our long cherished hope that drunkenness. fever, famine or pestilence would drive them from the face of the earth has van- ished, and we suppose the all-wise Creator is keeping the crop replenlshed for some good purposes, the same as other crawling reptiles are allowed to live.

 PRESCOTT eJune 4.-Thos. Ewing left here Sunday for Tucson going via Camp Verde and expects tO'reach home by the l4th.
 Correspondent of The Miner writing from Cerbat, Mojave county, June 2, says: Among; the rich discoveries made or rath- CT developed, may be mentioned the New Era and Franklin. The New Era boys are now extracting from their mine at depth of sixty feet some Of the richest ore yet dis covered in camp; the ore will average without sorting eight hundred dollars per ton. The lucky proprietors of the New Era have shipped several tons of high grade ore to San Francisco, but the ore now on the dump and ready for shipment will discount anything yet shipped by them. Another very rich strike is in the Franklin on one of the Cerbat Co.'S claims near Stockton. Mr. Toule, the company's superintendent, showed me some very rich ore lately taken from that mine. This is very agreeable and unlocked for discovery, as that mine was not rated as a high-grade lode. We have many other Franklin mines, and until lately unnotic- ed and undevelOped in every portion of the country, which only requires the mag ic of labor to transfer them into very pro- ductive and valuable property.

One of the first and most important things to do to insure success in raising stock is to improve the breed and raise the best. It costs no more to raise good animal than poor one. Common Cali fornia horses can be purchased in Cali fornia at from SS to $2O per head, while good horses are quick sale at from Sl00 to $500, and there is as great difference in sheep and cattle, the poorer classes being unstable and unprofitable to keep, and the better class are always salabe and profitable to keep. One good milch COW is worth more for family use than twenty poor ones, and will bring about twenty times as much anywhere. Common Mex ican sheep only shear from one to two pounds of coarse wool per animal, while. @ good Merino will shear from ten to4 twelve pounds of fine 'salable wool. The former is @ dear bargain at any price, while the latter, even at S20 per head, will pay,e, handsome interest on the investment. n. the anxiety to accumulate stock, paaf,L<: often overlook the importance of rekfne good stock, but experience demonsff ffates, that money is made in stockrr1f4o& in proportion to the quality zand snot the quantity raised. .L X$x1f45a

WE are no phrenologist, but we venture the assertion that the head of Cochena, which was brought into the San Carlos few days ago, having been segregated from the body little above the shoul- ders, was harmless head. It will be re- membered that this Cochena was one of the accompliees to the murder of Lieut.. Amy at the San Carlos, and that since the perpetration of this murder he has used his influence to induce other Apaches to go on the war path and probably was as much to blame as any other for the last outbreak at San Carlos. We are glad to know that henceforth the wicked head of this man can no longer direct his willing hands in shedding the blood of white men and that his body has gone to enrich the earth and his soul to that other world where he will not have to be hunted out of rocks and caverns. before he can be punished accoI ding to his deeds General Crooks medicine is operating we'll and very soon all his patients will be killed or cured.
