On Sunday last, at Pittman's

three miles this side of Flagstaff on
the A. and p. road, while Charles
Collins and another party, whose
name we were unable to learn,
were disputing over some trivial
matter, VIM. Lewis, Familiarity
known as "Arizona Bill" walked
up to Collins, and without word
or any apparent reason, drew pis-
tol and shot him in the neck, kill
ing him instantly. Lewis was al
rested and confined In house close
by for safe keeping and a guard
placed over him, where he remain
Cd over night. On the morning of
the day following, Monday, about
200 armed railroad men gathered
at the house and demanded Lewis,
who was turned over to them by
the guard. Having secured the
prisoner, the mob took him to
tree close by and strung him up,
after which they fired fourteen
shots into his body. Particulars re.
gardiDg the affair are very meagre

A LESSON IN THE GRASS.

Beside tiny silver stream,
And sheltered by broken wall,
Divided from the rivers CLEAN,
BY grasses sere, and brown and tall
One little spot of April lay
Upon December's rugged breast,
And though he shook his temples gray,
Its trustful verdure was at rest
Its green blades drew from wintry sky
The memory of the summer past,
And whispered to the stream hard by;
"a brighter day shall come at last
"When you within your tinkling bed
And to breathings of the spring,
Shall oft rejoice DER winter dead,
And of the newborn season sing.
"Until that happy time shall be,
In faith we'll wait for good unseen,
When you shall sweeter sing to me
And | shall wear brighter green"
heard the sound the grasses made
In a whispering little brook hard by,
And, though the east winds swept the glades,
Less bitter seemed the wintry sky.
BE strong, my heart; beat brave and true;
Let not lle's cold steal thro' thy door;
Some kindly wall shall shield thee, too,
And God shall bring thee spring once more.

and stabbed her to the heart with a
stiletto, burying the weapon six inches
into her body. The murderer was ar

speaking of the crime. said:
He has murdered my child, and the
law must avenge her death. If it don't

turned to me and asked shelter. She
was my own flesh and blood, and
cheerfully pardoned her and took her

A farmers Curious VIII.

An old farmer at Guelph, Canada,
recently made curious will, which is
substantially as follows: The son works
the farm till his stepmother's death, at
the end Of which time he commences
paying instalments on $4,000 to the
rest OF the family at a yearly rate of $50
year, and when he gets all paid off he
will get the farm in his own possession.
1t will be seen that after the stepmoth-
ers death it will be sixty years before
the son gets the farm, and as the woman
is yet in the prime of life and healthy,
1t is calculated that she may live
another forty years. The son is now
thirty years of age, and when he can
claim the farm, by his reckoning he
will be 1870 years old. ngs
