DE0ln ming to be regarded with distrusIfu eyes. Tue spirits of the dead are be lleved to wander in unrest about ii and to make night dismal with tbeil groanlngs. Stout hearted traveller, overtaken by the evening shades ir the vicinity, of course turn toward tn, friendly shelter of roof rather thar camp on the desert hill side. And al usually goes well until the early fire,
 burn low and begin to cast weird shaG ows on the walls, and tired limb stretch themselves to rest. Then uueel noises begin, and strange feelings mak,
 would be sleepers wakeful and uneasy and somehow, they never can tell iust how, they conceive a terror at being il the house; the air gets thick and ther, IS no peace until they leave. Nor dc they go there the second time. What lever II is, il is horrible, and a curse seems upon the place, so that neither man nor beast can dwell there.
 DETECTIVE PAUL left by Thursday. coach for Prescott, taking with hin the prisoner whom he had arrested for participation in the Gillette stage robbery and murder. Tie detective carries with him the very strongest kind fcircumstantial evidence against hls prisoner in the shape of a watch When Thomas was killed he had in his possession four watches, which he had had al Prescott jewellers for re pairs, and this jeweler was able to give an exact description of them. The one here referred to is a four ounce stem-Winding silver watch of ordinary description, except that it is gold tipped, that k, the stem, rings and hinges were of gold, which marks i, as one among a thousand. This watch was found among the effects of the prisoner at Harshaw'S ranche and will make 1t very difficult for the young man 10 prove an alibi.
 A NEW way to collect old debts has been adopted by that enterprising in dividual, NIT. A. G. Hunter, late of the Aztec company, now of Sonora. He claims a very fabulous sounding sun of money from our old friend Jose Pierson, and having brought suit to recover il in a Magdalena court he ad vertlSes our merchants here that they must not not buy any flour of Jose, on pain of being pursued by the vindic tive creditor under a Mexican law which makes all of a debtors prop ery both real and personal liable for his debts. IL seems hardly possible that such can be the law in Mexico in the sense sought to be conveyed by Mir Hunter, and we are advised that it Is not so. We prophecy that Jose will continue to sell four.
 AMONG the passengers on the coach from Silver City Thursday. was Mr. John R. Magruder, formerly d mining operator of New Mexico, and later oi Colorado: in both of which sections he is well and favorablv known. Mir Magruder is one of those fortunate gentlemen who packed his blankets into the Silver City district and pack cd hi- thousands out His operations at Lead nile and elsewhere have been equally successful. His present pur- pose is Co examine and report upon some mines in Sonora, and after visit 10 New York next month he will re- turn 10 look at Arizona about April. Mir. Magruder is congcnial gentle man of intelligence and experience in matters; all of which l. backed up by abundant capital, and this is the T,r.- ,,,.,, A Ar.-y.,,. ,,..A1
 PAUL MoRoNEY Jeff Thursday for Casa Grande to accompany his family 10 this city. where they will in the flu ture make their home. We are glad to see this additional evidence of iGten- ton to remqin among Us on the part of Mr. Moroney. IL shows both pluck and prosperity on the part of one who never heSItated about casting his lot here from the day of his first arrival.
 MEssRs. OATES & GORILLA have opened a law office next door east Of Rice's drug store. NIT. Oates is a stran- ger here. but has had large experience at his profession in Alabama and Cali. fornia. MT. Corella k too well known here to need introduction. We bid them good speed.
 WE were shown Thursday some very rich chloride ore at the office of Stan ford. Earil dU Smith, from five foot ledge just this side of the Sonora line. II looked as though it might carry 40 per cent. silver and the boys are some what wild about il. The above men tioned firm are fortunate in owning an interest.
