The Bridge.

Work has been delayed by the death of John Heaton the boss carpenter and best bridge builder in the company's employ. His place will probably be taken by MT. Seth Green. Cedar piles for the piers are about all on the ground and are being sharpened and shod with iron. Lumber keeps on arriving every few days and a large quantity is already accumulated on the river bank. A side track has been made to facilitate its delivery. Two more piles were driven this week, one on each side the line of the bridge, to make the floating pile-driver fast to. The anchorage is not good at that part of the river. A large force of mechanics is camped there and shops are ready for active work.

Pay Day.

Yesterday all audited bills against the S P. R. R. Co. and its employees payrolls were settled at Colorado Station. Notice was given to creditors to be on board the transfer boat here at quarter past ten A pay car came down in charge of J. N. Han:ord, who is said to be one of the best railroad paymasters in the United States he never forgets the face of man whom he has once paid. The money was wei comed by the employees, who have not been paid for some time, and peradventure some of it may circulate in town.

DRUNKEN INDIANS made night hideous on Saturday and Sunday. A few goods were stolen by them from Mrs. Smiths millinery A trunk was being drag ged from one of the little houses in front of Blair's when the Indian thief was hailed and ran Many other trifling thefts were committed, and bowling and shoot ing were indulged in by them. to the great annoyance of citizens. Sheriff Werninger went actively to work to discover the par ties guilty of selling liquor to them, and has now the satisfaction of having one of fender in jail and of being on the track of others. Since the arrest was made the ne- farious traffic has ceased and the town is again quiet. A few years ago rule was enforced here of driving every Indian out of town after sunset. The rule worked well, secured quiet and safety, and should again be put in force.

You would send for watch for your. self and one for your wife, but you arc afraid that you won't be satisfied as to the style, etc. Now, friend, such talk as that is silly; is it necessary that you should go to the expense of coming to San Francisco when all you have to do is to merely give Uncle Harris plain explanation of what you want, and he will then send you what will more than please you. Send your or ders to Uncle Harris, 702 Kearny street, San Francisco.

DIED ON THE CARs.-Mr. W. H. Smith died on the cars while on his way to Cali fornia, Monday, July 25d. He had been drinking ice water very freely until about two o'clock P. NJ, when precipitation ceas- ed and he became quite sick. He started for California for relief, but died en route. The thermometer did not get above g that day, but without doubt the unfortu- nate death will be. attributed to "intense heat"

EXtOrtiOn,

The Clerk of the District Court pre-. sented a bill against the County for fees during the three months ending June 30th, amounting to $10.05, and the Supervisors actually allowed it at SS.70. For fees dur ing the same period the Recorder pre-, sented bill of S2.95, and the Board al- lowed that at two dollars and seventy cents. This shows collision and the i'm proper influence exercised over the Board by those officers. No wonder the County is in debt Such extortion must be stop ped, even if we have to seek assistance from Tucson newspapers.

NATIVE GRAPES were brought in this week from Hanlon's Ferry. They were of the Catawba variety, of large size, and of an intense and rich flavor rarely found in grapes. Some of the punches weighed five pounds Hanlon's oldest vines are not yet three years old, but they are loaded with fruit. They were raised within a short distance of the Colorado river, and afford gratifying proof of the SENTINEL's $ constant assertion that this is par excel lence a grape country.

NEW wRINKLE.-The Sheriff has hit upon a new dodge, which strikes dismay into the hearts of incorrigiblc Indian "drunks" He gives prison cut to their hair, shearing off the long tresses, in which the young bucks take great pride, and making them objects of derision for their companions. Moderate confinement with plenty to eat does not worry them much; but fear of losing their long hair They put considerable money value on the tresses, which are used for splicing out others.

MR. ALEX FINS, a pupil of Pico, Paris, has painted picture of the Immaculate Conception. Its beauty of color and finish reflect great credit upon the artist, who is well known in California as painter of repute. The Madonna as here repre- scented is well worth an hours study, while the cherubims are marvels of per lection. It will be hung in the cross of the church. Mir. Zins will also decorate the altar with some of his fine paintings

DEFENCELEss. - Monday morning at seven o'clock orders were received at Fort Yuma for Capt. Dove's company of the Twelfth Infantry, garrisoning the post, to proceed at once to Angel Island, Califor- nia. That afternoon they all went, forty strong, including laundrcsses and chil- dren. The parade ground is again in charge of one officer and a couple of men, while if the mania for striking should at- tack Yuma the town is defenceless.

Railroad.

The main cut from the river along Mad ison avenue will be finished to-day, and the force put to work next week on the spur track that will run along the river bank. So far Chinamen and horses have stood the hot weather very well. At Colorado Station all is very quiet. R. E. Farrington has packed up his goods, proposes to move to Ehrenberg, and wants to sell his building, which is a portable lumber house, put together in sections. Travel and freights have been very light Tester lay but two passengers arrived. There are reported on the way down some 62 tons of freight for some mining outfit in -9lo6e District

A ASCoUNDREL.-James H. Norton came here without cent about year ago. He was man of good presence, skilled me- chanic, industrious, and soon obtained the confidence of the community. Gradually and by using the credit he acquired, he bought out the large and complete wagon factory established by Horner x Donald son. Everything was in his favor. The people had no suspicion of him. his busi- ness was prospering and he was on t.ie high road to wealth and influence. But an honest path was too slow and uneventful for him. he chose the way of fraud, which we trust he will find exciting enough be- fore he gets through with it. Under false pretences he obtained money from persons in San Francisco, from many persons here avoided payment Of debts as long as possi- ble and suddenly jumped the country. As a part of his premeditated villainy he bor- rowed a $500 watch and chain which had been presented by Chris Horner to one of his little apprentices. Telegrams were dispatched to detectives over the country and on Tuesday he was reported under ar rest at San Francisco, having been cap- tured by detective Lees. Whether he will be brought here for trial and punishment or whether he will be released on disgorg- ing the plumber, probably depends upon how he disgorges,
