Tho Flood at Bisbse

A correspondent of the Tomb
stone Nugget, writing from Bisbee,
tells Of the flood at that place.
Rtsbee is situated in a narrow
csfon, there being only one street
in the town, and consequently
received "benefit." The corres-
pondent says:
At about IL O'Clock on Sunday q
sheet Of water, from two to three
feet In depth, came rushing and
roaring down half q dozen caflons
with nearly the velocity of light
ming, carrying before it nearly
every movable obstacle; burros.
pigs, boulders and trees, rushed
through the town, carrying fences,
cabins, wagons, etc., and In fact
everything in Its path, down the
ravine, landing the whole business
in Q pile near the wells. The
miners suspended work, and turn
ed out en- masse, with shovels,
picks, etc., waded In the food and
removed, by great exertion, the
boulders and trees, which, had II
not been done, would have incress-
cd the damage, thereby retardlng
the progress being made by this
camp.

The jury rendered a verdict yes

Of Charles 81. Gordon, who has
been on trial for the past four days
for the killing of Maggie Bangs
It WAS q case based entirely upon
oircumstantial evidence, and the
question presented to the jury was
this: "Was it murder or suicidep"
The verdict of not guilty OF course
makes 1t the latter. 1t is reported
that when the jury retired they
were divided-eight for acquittal
and four for conviction. just how

The San Diego Union some time

The San Diego Union some time
since gave estimate measurements
Of an immense grapevine at VIM.
E. Flinn's place, near the Csjon
valley. Since then this monster
has continued to grow until its ac-
Cumulated weight of branch and
fruit has brought total destruction
to one of the two large oak trees
which supported 1t, and almost de-
moIished the domicil of its owner.
From Mr.. Flinn's driver, who vis-
tied the Union office on Friday last,
it is learned that the vine and its
fruit has completely crushed the
tree, tearing IL out by the roots.
The size of this vine and the weight
Of grapes growing upon 1t may be
estimated when we say that the
oak tree thus prostrated, which is
perfectly sound, Is fully two and
half feet In diameter, and upwards
Of sixty feet in height. with cor
responding spread of limbs and
branches. Mr.. Finn estimates that
an that portion of the vine which
'9sstroyed the tree there were fully
five tons Of grapes.
