IT comes around that an enterpris ing saloon man some where on fin,
 San Pedro, recently found two-bi,
 pieces coming in rather slowly, and in
 that serious juncture remembered the
 attractions of the " free-lunch." as ex
 emplified in Frisco, and other villages
 That night and the next morning i,
 was announced broadcast that at the
 hour of noon a magnificent spread
 would be laid out in the parlors of the
 |" "Alhambra." The invitation was ac. cepted, and when twelve o'clock ar. rived, all the boys were there. the
 Yankees in close ranks, many deep. nearest the long tables, and the un- tutored MeXicans massing in the rear, and crowding through the tapestried doorway. Six stout strikers maintain. ed the integrity of the feast while two others rushed back and forth, placing the vIands in tin dishes upon the board. The company clamOred at the delay and hardly awaited the end of the preparations. At last, high above the din the proprietor yelled: Turn 'em loOse." The noises ceased or glided off into a subdued shuffie and sounds of maslication. The bar. keeps" stood in their places expect antly. The front ranks of eaters fin ished and retired. The Mexicans pour ed in and filled their places instantly. The crowd dropped away and grew thinner. The table became visible. It was bare. Even the pans were gone. The last guest departed; and the host, aghast at the desOlation before him, turned to count the proceeds. They summed up nine two-bit pieces md a counterfeit Mexican dollar. The free lunch system has been aban- loned on the San Pedro.

Judae LYnch's Kork-

Judge Lynch not long since oper ated in Colorado, and on the 25th of July he disposed of horse-thiei named Randolph, ln Hillsborough, Dona Ana County, \. M. In May last Randolph and Whiteman stole cou- pie of horses from one Mir. Murdoch and another man. Murdoch followed the trail for nearly seventy days siXty-tive in succession. The chase was made into Northern New Mexico, to the Little Colorado, Arizona, and to other places. By the aid of Indians Randolph was finally captured, taken before q Justice at HillsbOrough, who bound him over to answer for the crime. During the night of the 24th fourteen armed men took him from the custody of the officers and hung him to a cottonwood, on which his body was found next morning. The Silver Record says: Randolph begged piteOusly for his life, citing that it was his first Offense, that he would lead different life in the future, that d widowed mother was dependent upon him for support; but mob law is inex- orable, and his supplicaiiOn was un- needed, for his selfimposed execution CTS were not to be moved by entreaties or tears.

The MIni1Q Bu66Ie.

Some of the New York City paper; have been pretty severe on the awak. ening of Eastern people to the i'm pOrtance of mining for the precious metals, characterizing it as a "craze, ? bubble" etc. The Tribune is now justlystreating the subject, and some of the other newspapers are letting il alone. Here is an extract from an ar ticle in a late number of The Econo mist, which shows the true spirit:
 Within the next five years, and pos. sibly much less, Arizona and New Mexico will, in our estimation, come to the front with such q showing of mineral deposits as will put all others in the background. But no matter how valuable these discoveries may be. whether in Colorado or Arizona, they cannot be utilized, cannot be de. velopcd into wealth-producers, with. out the aid of capital. It does not show good judgment, then, in our esti. nation, for these journals to charac- teriZe the present interest in mining as a bubble, which will burst sooner or later, for we consider it to be founded upon legitimate basis, and to be pro- ductive of great benefit to the country, as we'll as to individuals. at the same time advising all investors to examine investments offered them with the same care they would give to any other business enterprise.

What, with our beef mutton. wool, hides, timber, metals minerals, etc, are we coming tog To the jumping of place as a Territory. With a railroad through Southern Arizona and one through the Northern part, the progress of the en- tire Territory will be wonderful. Nothing can now prevent this Terri. tory from becoming State inside of the next three years.-l Arilonan

Indian RdIds.

Yesterday morning it was reported in town that the renegade Indians had jumped Mir Shaw's herd of mules just south of Huachuca and run them off. MT. E. N. Fish has just received a let ter giving the particulars. Four In dians stampeded the herd. Shaw and d colored man succeeded in cutting out five mules and the Indians took the remainder. Shaw came into Camp Huachuca and Lieut.. Bailey immedi- ately sent out scout of twenty cav airy. Nothing further has been heard.
 This morning it was rumOred that a man named Frank TOney had been killed in the Patagonia, near the Alta
 mine. It is evident there were two parties of these renegadeS, numbering about five in each party. Ten bad In
 dians can do great deal of mischief when people are unpreparcd for them.

YaYdpaI Assessments.

From Prescott Arizonan, July 30: The Board of Supervisors of this
 county, sitting as Board of Equali
 zatIon, have worked hard for several
 weeks past, and yesterday thought that their arduous labors would be
 ended, when to their chagrin they were
 informed by Judge Silent and Judge
 Hargrave that the assessment of prop erty was, ill many instances, defective, and that it was the duty of the Board to notify owners of lots in this town to appear and give correct descriptions of lots, etc. Our attention having been called to this matter, we were shown wherein some assessments were. and are now, defective. For instance. A has three lots in a certain block. with improvements on one of them. The assessors have simply put him down as the owner of three lots and improvements, worth in the aggregate so much. Again, some ranches and farms are very poorly described. Now, a contest having been raised on just such technicalities, the District Judge was, according to a strict intcrpreta- ton of law, compelled to let the con- testants go free of paying taxes. The county cannot afford to lose much in this way, hence the necessity for act ing in legal way We believe it safe to assert that heretofore the assessing has been done in the same way, but people have become smarter, legal gentlemen whose duty it is to find flaws are more numerous than former ly, and "patriOtic taxpayers less numerous. So the Board will have to sit and sit until matters are set right, square and fair.

NEW ROCHELLE, New York, has q matter in hand very similar to one now in the courts here. A brewer ran waste water into q creek through a private drain. Complaint was made that the impurities of the brewery water cause a nuisance to dwellerS along the creek. The village authori. ties closed up the drain and the brewer turned the water into the street. The community is very wealthy one, headed by Col. Delancey Kane, and MT. Jones, the offending brewer, is as wealthy and determined as need be to make a very fine case of it.

 Not always rise before ihe brow: Though forward naught but clouds appea,

 To shores of childhood that we leave. Are those old signs We followed vaine

ENGLAND has taken serious alarm at the naval armament of the Chinese empire. Sir William Armstrong's firm has just dispatched the last two of eight we'll built and equipped gun boats. each armed with thirty-eight ton gun, admirably adapted for river and coast defenses. This forms very formidable flotilla, and may be in creased at pleasure by the Chinese governments, which is compelled to adopt modern appliances in face of the growing power of Russia and Japan at its doors. And upon this chance that England may soon be upon the back of China, the ever Sanguine California hangs a new hope that John" may be stepped in his determined exodus eastward.

 Lieut.. GatewOOd and scouts return ed to Arizona on last Sunday and Joe Eaton of Tucson is now in Silver. We venture tO say that in less than one year Silver City will bear the same relations to New Mexico that Tucson does to Arizona, the conner cial town of the great southwest Tucson and Silver City alike have a great interest in the growth of the great mining sections, lying between the two cities.
 The rain has had a good effect around this section. Farmers report crops as looking fine, and miners state that there IS >uiiiCiency. The publc school under charge of II. W. Sherry is progressing to the qualification of all friends of public education.

TIE red man has received an in dorsement from an unexpected source. The two men who have occupied sev- eral months past in trundling light wheelbarrows across the continent aver that in point of courtesy the In dians whom they met by the way, hundreds in number, were far more civil and hospitable than the average white man. Perhaps the key note has been struck and the wheelbarrow is to be the great civilizer of the children of the forest. Hereafter the mission ary and the Indian Agent may only require good supply of the one wheeled vehicle to insure the dOcility of their charges. An Indian with two hands holding a barrow would be bet ter than an Indian with a Winchester. His education might be started from that point successfully.

Those Twelve Hundred Passes.

The public mind in Arizona is still sensitive regarding the treatment of the Indians because their conduct is
 influenced by it. For over two years
 people i'll Southern Arizona generally have not feared any renewal Of hostili- ties; at least they have moved about, settled, improved and located their families with their business interests on what had formerly been dangerous grounds. The report of the issuance of 1900 passes by the new management at San Carlos, which is a combination of military and civil, naturally enough caused some apprehension, which was increased by the murders and thefts in the Santa Ritas and near Huachuca. These murders and thefts may have been the work of Indians, but many people whose opinions are as liable toI be correct as that of anybody, in the absence of proof to the contrary, think Americans and Mexicans are the crim- inals. To show the feeling at Globel City, we copy these statements from The Belt of August 1:
 Since the new administration of affairs at the San Carlos Agency tool many Indians are out "on pass tOl render it agreeable to whites of theI surrounding neighborhoOd. If we arel correctly informed, small bunch of not less than 1900 are now out, andI some of them with permission to be absent for forty days.
 So far the Indians have deported | themselves with few exceptions to the satisfaction of their Christian brothers, and it is to be hoped that they may continue 10 cultivate friendly relations with them.
 We learn from a gentleman who re- gently spent some days at the San Car los Agency that Major Chaffee, temper arily in charge, is satisfactorily admin istering the affairs of the Agency.
