"Cowboy" in this community, says the
Tucson Journal, has become a generic
term for o class Of lawless ~vagabonds who
violate all the proprieties of life with gust to,
who neither respect themselves nor other
people, and who are base enough to do any
dirty action which may afford them tenn
porary advantage or support. The term
has no longer a local application. We are
aware that there is q class in a distant
State known by that name who are popu-
larly supposed to be a species Of bucolic
Corydons or Alexises, and who shoot away
each others boot-heels or soap-locks in an
uncomfortable spirit Of drollery. But
Arizona has nothing to do with these. As
long as they conine their idiotic antics to
the State Of Texas, they are at liberty to
try their workmanship upon any object
without molestation or criticism from US.
1t is the organized gang of desperadoes
who ride into towns at night and terroriZe
the peaceable inhabitants. that we are con-
cerned about-who visit the ranches OF the
farmers and drive off their c~attle-who ride
intoschurches and disperse the congrega-
lions in terror through the streets and
felds-who ride into saloons and shoot out
the lights, and when demonstrated with
have the ready bullet as an answer to all
complaints, and who lastly would rob a
stage and murder its occupants just as soon
as they would do any Of the other things
enumerated did it add to their gains. This
class Of cowboys is pretty thickly scattered
over the southern part of our Territory,
and il we would prosper and entice capital
and labor to our midst our people. must
rise up and put them down. As to the
robbery Of the Benson stage, without any
thing but conjecture to guide us, we incline
to the impression that 1t was perpetrated
ate vicinity. They may be cowboys or calf
boys, but whatever they are, we trust Paul
and his party nave ere this placed them
where they will never modest decent peo-
pie again.

DENYING THE TRINITY.
The Presbyterian ParsOn Sewers
His Connection with that Firth.

An earthquake could not have shaken M
the religious portion of our community
more than did the announcement yester-
day morning that Rev. Geo. W. Gallagher
had severed his connection with the Pres
byterians, and that he had notified the
church authorities to that effect. MANY
who had listened to the eloquent divine
for the past two years, especially the lady
members Of his flock, for a time refused to
believe that such apostacy could be possi-
BILE. The fact, however, became generally
known before noon, and the eloquent
shepard fell from grace with his most de-
voted followers faster than he had mounted
in their esteem. The members of all de-
nominations were Mortified, and were
almost ready to believe in Mother Ship
tons prophecy, that the world to an end
shall come, in the year 1881" The cause
that has led Mr.. Gallagher to take this
step was given by him yesterday as follows:
u dissolved my connection with the
Presbyterian Church OF this place last
night, and will send my remuneration of
the standard doctrines of the church to
the P~resbytery OF Sacramento by to-night's
mail. The cause OF my severing nv con-
nection with the Presbyterian Church is
my divergence from the confession of faith
In these points In, that I do not believe
In the doctrines Of eternal punishment, of
the Trinity, of the inspiration of the
Scriptures, nor in the orthodox view of the
atonement. My views now are what may
be termed Unitarian, Inc when l Join a
church hereafter 1t will be the Unitarian
Church, for that faith, in my view, is the
truest to nature. to reason and to true
religion"
Nothing in Mr.. Gallagher's d~iscourses
has foreshadowed this course. On the
contrary, not only his morning sermons,
but his evening lectures have been deliv-
cred in the very spirit of orthodoxy. If
he has received a revelation, it ha, come
very suddenly. His church respected and
IGNORED his utterances. He was looked
upon as an eloquent divine, and worked
zealously in behalf OF his calling. His
morning sermons have been rated as
models Of pulpit ~oratory for this out of the
way region, while his evening lectures have
always been immensely popular with
both believers and non-believers
in the faith Therefore, his sud-
den conversion is a surprise and mystifes
his former communicates. The gentle
man, we are informed, offered to hold SER
vices in the church to-day, but the Trus-
tees refused to grant him that privilege
hence the pulpit will remain vacant until
minister can be secured.

Cheerful News from Our Southern
NeighbOr - Operations to be Re-
sumed.
EDITOR SENTINEL: The prediction 1
made in one of my letters a month past,
when the Typo Consolidated Mining Com
pany closed down, that the property would
not remain idle over a month, has proved
true, for to-day's mail g~laddened the faces
Of many Of our business men and our
grass widows whose husbands have left
them in search of work. These widows
were told to send for their husbands and
have them ready to go to work on the LIST
OF the coming month. It would be a sin
to let a property like that of the Typo
Consolidated Mining Company lie idle, as
it has produced over four millions in silver
bars, and has only attained a dep4h OF less
than 500 feet, and yet the slopes are full
of ore, and by sinking on ii they will open
as big a bonanza as has ever been found
anywhere, even not excepting Eureka Con.
Ere many months pass Typo will see as
busy a life as it did in days gone by. Out
side districts, too, will add to the pros
perity of this place, namely, Reveille Dis
trict. A short distance south from here
the Continental Mining Company's mines
are looking we'll. Work is being pushed
on them by Superintendent Clark. The
Gila Mine, well known as Q silver
producer, is also looking up. Then there
is Florence District. Reports coming in
there are most flattering. 1t has
given new life to those owning claims here.
instance, the Page & Donnel have now
q fine body Of carbonate ore in sight. In
the Red Rock Mine six feet of ore can be
seen, and Hon. j. Williams intends to put
a force of men at work on the Spy. In
short, everything looks well for business
to open out 80 K" 10 the near future, and
/ hope to send you a longer list Of sub
scribers than you have had before in
the history of Typo, which place stands
solely on its own merits, as it has never
raised a two-bit piece from assessments

A blind Miner.

We are told that there is a miner in
Grass Valley who is totally blind. He
labors in his claim regularly, and appears
to get along with his work as well as
though his sight was not injured.-Trans-
cript.
You are told correctly. Our blind miner
can not only work as we'll. il not better,
than if he had good eyesight, but he can
tell anybody where to find a lead. He is
so successful that the proposition to put
out all the eyes of our miners is seriously
entertained. The boys may object but
they will submit to what is for the general
good.-Grass Valley Lance.

by administering remedies saved the wo-

4 Woman Of Grit.

Some days since farmers wife T.
Grayson county, whose name We have
not obtained, was frying meat for dinner
al her housc. situated near a mountain
range in rather wild and sequestered
place, her husband in the meantime
being engaged a. work some distance
from the house. The savory odor Of the
bacon was scented hy couple Of young
bears that were ranging on the premises
and cnticed them TO follow the direction
from which it came. They kept the
scent until it even drew them into the
house where the meat was on the FRY.
The lady of the house secured the
strange visitors. and her knowledge Of
bears led her 10 think that these young
ones had strayed FROM their maternal
parent. which would soon follow their
trail and hunt them up. Her judgment
was correct, for il vas but a few
moments before the old she bear came
in sight-an enormous black bruin. Q! a
kind which. as many Of our readers
know. will fight to the death for their
young. The woman drew down from
its rack the old, true. tried, and trus;v
mountain rifle. and fastening the door
she made loop-hole Of the window and
waited the approach Of her bearsAip
within a sufficient distance for a shot
She waited not long and fred. the ball
taking effect but no; proving fatal. The
report Of the rifle drew her laboring
husband from his work, who, coming
near the house was chased several
hundred yards 10y the bear, which then
gave up the pursuit and returned in
quest of her young. The plucky back
woodsmans wife had in the meantime
reloaded the rife, and with the second
shot the old she bear keeled over. under
side topmost, and yielded up the ghost.
The cubs, we are told, sold at IndepeDd-
ence, the county seat of Grayson, for
s26, and the skin Of the bear, which
was very large, brought the sum of IS at
the same place. Wyderale (Td,) Enter

In Finland dairying is taught the
women in the most thorough style at
government expense In 1865 travelling
dairy maids were appointed throughout
the country, and, being paid from pub
lie treasures, every inhabitant had
right TO claim instruction or assistance.
The next step was the founding Of
seventeen dairy-schools, of which ten
were established by owners of private
dAiries. Each school had teacher at
its head, who gave theoretical instruc-
tion aud a female teacher, who taught
the principal part of the work. Each
school is calculated for eight pupils
who are admitted by the teacher, and
required to be able TO read and write.
After course Of two years they have TO
pass formal examination in the pres
ence Of members of the agricultural
society. The instruction given them
during the first year comprises animal
physiology, tending of animals in gen.
eral, the most common diseases of cattle
and their treatment, the use of the
thermometer, the different methods of
cooling milk and their effect as TO the
formatioi of cream. the treatment of
the cream and the making Of butter,
the manufacture of cheese from skinned
and unskimmed milk, and, finally, book
keeping by single entry. The contract
for the erection of dairy-school with
the owner of dairy applying for one is
generally made for Ave years. During
the first year only four pupils are re-
ceived none during the last. Hence,
only sixteen pupils can be fully edu-
Gated during the term of contract.
