One night last week as the south

road passed through the Caldwell
farm. two and a half miles north OF
Moscow colt was seen to bound on
the track behind the train and give
chase. K cpiug well up with it. When
the train passed over trestIe the colt
would leave the track, pass around the
trestle and again take the track, and
iu few seconds regain the distance
lost in making the detour. 4 Bayou

short distance below the road TO whore
it could de c3nd.s4a11Hs, swim the
stream, a distance of about two hun

When the train checked up at the Mos
cow depot, the colt was there, too, ap-

Rains at Picket Post.

We learn that Mr. T Nicolas came near being drowned at Picket Post during the storm at that place last Thursday. Nicolas is a butcher. He had just killed a beef and was bringing it into town on a two-horse wagon. Just as he was crossing the bed of the creek the water came down in a bank or high wave, his wagon was overturned and badly broken, his beef and tools were lost, one horse was drowned. Mir. Nicolas was res cued from a watery grave through the timely assistance of NIT. Willis and partner.
 When the saloon fell in at the corner of Mason's building two men were buried beneath the ruins. Both were seriously but not fatally injured. The workmen were two hours digging out the injured men. The damage to Mason's block was considerable, and some rooms that did not fall will have to be taken down and rebuilt.

A HOOdIum Graduate,

The robber killed at Tucson las
 week was evidently one of the wors
 renegades ever in Arizona. We hope
 to be able 10 get brief biography O,
 this character soon. He is from San
 Francisco-a Kearneyite-and it i. stated he with few other boy hood lums lived seven years in an old boil eT-until the aperature used as an en trance would no longer admit them
 He claims to have robbed nine coach. es; says he killed his first man when only fifteen years of age, and that al one time when closely pursued by de. teclives in New Mexico, he made a fight and killed seven, the entire par. ty. He could shoot effectively with two revolvers simultaneously, and equally well With either hand. He had a plan to rob the Depository in Tucson during business hours, by simply presenting the clerk with a sack and then with cooked pistols pro- .duce greeDbacks or death. His accom- .plice, however, was unwilling to hold his horse at the door. He was to rob the stage the day following, the one on which he was killed; then go into Tue son, call on Messrs. Shibell and But her, kill each in his own door and then go to Santa Fe, New Mexico, and rob the banks.
 Those who saw him after he was killed say he looked dangerous even in death. One correspondent says "he was the most desperate looking char acter you can Imagine-'armed to the teeth won't express it-he was armed to his eyelashes and lived just above that other fellow on the head waters of Bitter Creek" Sheriff Shibell and posse did the Territory a most excel lent service when they killed Wm.

Indian Labor

Conductor Sippy says that the Yu- ma Indians, who were taken out to ! help repair the track washed out last week, worked far better than the Mex jeans. These river Indians are good workers. All they need is plenty 10 eat and to be treated with strict justice.
 We clip the above from the last Sen- tinel. The Indians of Arizona have generally been considered as not only useless, but curse to the country. It | is true that until within the last few years the wild tribes of Arizona have always come in conflict with Ameri- can progress and enterprise in this Territory. But now that we have peace and our relations are so changed for the better, is it not possible for us to utilize the labor of these Indians to our great benefit? The Yuma and Pi- ma Indians have for many years dis played a willingness to work. During the last two or three years many of the Apaches have sought employment in the various settlements about their res ervation- A large portion of the ado bes used in the construction of Globe City are the result of Apache labor In the construction of the extensive az ney buildings at San Carlos during 1875 and '76, It was only necessary to employ a mason to lay the adobes in the wall-the making, hauling and packing of adobes and mortar all be- ing done by the Indians. In the build ing of towns, roads, railroads, irrigat- ing canals, and in opening new mining camps there is much rough labor that can be performed by Indians without materially interfering with other class es of laborers. This would inculcate a more docile spirit in the Indian and the benefit might be made mutual and general

"The North wind. .''

The Enterprise lion tor lying Enter prise) has again been cut loose. Should that sheet fall into the hands of 8 stranger be would conclude that the Enterprise ana Campbell were inc only gentlemen in Arizona. It looks very much as though the Enterprise and its candidate belong to that class of weak and narrow minded men who seek to build themselves up by pulling down men of real ability and merit From Marion's recent style of writing we judge that the virtues possessed by himself and his hero are so few and dim as to remain utterly invisible un- less the characters of all good men are thoroughly blackened; hence the mud This may be dignified style of polit ical warfare, but though accused oi being a ring and monopoly organ, 'f we are quite willing that Marion should hold a monopoly in that sort oi business. If an Indian could read Marion's recent issues he would quick ly lay it aside and exclaim "empti ness," "the north wind" His tirade and invective will only result in his own injury. But then we do rot in tend to intimate good advice to the Enterprise. It is a big lion and mus growl- It is a big wind and must blow and if that growl and that blow are ad vautageous to us we ought not to com plain We do not Blow, blow ye mighty north wind, and growl ye mighty lion, for the day is fast ap preaching when you will be swallowed up in fathomless abyss where your blowings and groanings will not even be heard.

Recent Heavy Ra,ns-,sooa EGee,s.

Arizona has recently been drenched and sOaked-few localities failing to get some portion. It is safe to say that for nearly two months rain has fallen in some parts every day-partic- ularly in the mountains south of the Gila river and bordering on Sonora. At no time in years has there been greater need of rain in the Territory. Springs and streams never before known to fail, were only marked by dry places prior 70 the late rains. Now not only the springs and streams carry their usual volume of water, but the sources of them have certainly been amply replenished. Some damage. it is true, has been done by few of the sudden and heavy falls, but the bene- fits are incomparably above it. Abund- ance of green grass is now up on many millions of acres, and the whole face of the Territory has a remarkably green covering. Hay and grass will be plentiful for year or more to come without more rain, and the streams will have water for irrigation of more agricultural land than has ever been cultivated in Arizona. The benefits to miners and especially prospectors is incalculable. It is now safe to pros lpect in any of the mountains, however generally destitute of water, for all tanks and depressions are full and many springs and streams flowing again. Rich grass in all our mountain ranges, so that animals can be kept fat in any of them. If rich ore deposits are found, the question of permanent water will be solved without much de- lay, but prospectors are obliged to have water without great search or expense.
 The temporary delay in the carriage of mails and passengers and freights, Is generally borne with great satisfac- ton in the face of such rainy blessings and necessities, and after all the loss suffered in Arizona from rain and storm this year, is nothing compared to that of other sections of our com mon country. Not life is reported lost in the Territory. On the 10th, Eu- reka and Austin, Nevada, were food ed, and in Austin $i0O,OOO damage done and one life lost. August 10. a storm did much damage in Washing ton, and about the same time a terrific s:orm occurred in portions of New England, and at Wallingsford. Con- necticut, over twenty lives were lost. In July several lives were lost in a storm just above Pittsburgh, Pa. Sev- eral washOuts have lately occurred on the railway in California beyond Yu- ma. Our little losses in Arizona are trifllng in comparison to many in va rious sections of the country, and our benefits are corespondingly greater. Insects have not injured our crops and disease has not attacked domestic ami mals. The outlook is decidedly hope ful.
