Life in the Planets.

A marvellous discovery was Fade full year ago by a German lawyer named Dr. O. Hahn, but so incredible did 1t seem that the learned world refused tO take notice of 1t, with one exception. Dr. D. F. Weinland devoted a whole year to studying Hahn's book and to test thor Oughly his microscopic researches and their results. He now publishes hls opinion and declares that Hahn has proved the remains of organic matter in the stones which dart into the terres- trial atmosphere from stellar space.
 From museums III Tubingen and in Vienna Hahn D Ocured himself more than 6OO chips of meteOrites of the ChO- adrite class, proved in each case to be genuine, and having been collected on eighteen different occasions, partly dur ing the present and partly during the past century in Europe, Asia ard Amer lea. Minute inspection has discovered ln them a quantity of organic remains, principally belonging to the most ancient form ot porous coralines, to the genus of fossil ZOOphytes denOminated favO- sites, or at least bearing a very strong resemblance to these latter, though of still smaller type. About fifty kinds of these tiny animals have been made out by Dr. Hahn and assigned to sixteen different families, to which he las given names, thus leaving the foundation of a new branch of zOO- lOgy-meteOrlc zoology.
 Dr. Weinland says that 1t IS only the shell of the ChOadrite meteorte that IS burnt and glazed by friction with our at- mOsphere. The heat does not extend so far during the short transit of the me teor as to impair the kernel, which has an appearance somewhat like coarse shell lime, or a cOnglOmeratiOn of petri- fled organic matter baked m a lump. Though only few specimens can be call ed well preserved, yet the substance Is sufficiently distinguishable to enable us to class most of the structures among the pOlycistines and fOrmamiuifero. They must have existed in the water warm enough never to freeze down to the bottom. Where are We to seek for this water, if Prof. Schiapareli tells us that meteOrites do not beIong to our so- lar system, but are intruders from with out? Very strange IS the resemblance of all the cuttings examined to one an- other, though, as stated, they belong to stones fallen at different periods in all parts of the GlObe.-Berlin Letter.

Elnhe Items.

Mir. G. w Mauk, Assistant United States Revenue Collector, returned this morning from Globe City, which place he 1t on Sunday last. Mir. Mauk says that at the time of his leaving the people were much excited about the Indians. Reports having reached Globe that the Indians had that morning attempted a raid on Hazards ranch, about six miles above the town. Immediately on re- cept of the news preparations were made for the sending out of body of armed men, and by ten o'clock fourteen of the rangers had left. Mir. Mauk states that he came away a few hours later and met a number of the rangers coming Tn with about twenty Indian women and children. A few miles further on he saw a second body of rangers and they had about ten or twelve more children and squaws. They were all being taken into Globe. He saw no bucks although two squads, one of six and one of ten, were reported seen that morning, all mounted and armed. The squaws were also mounted. Beauford. Chief Indian scouts at San Carlos is reported to have said that he never at any time, saw the Indians on the reservation so restless as they are at present.

Albuquerque contemplates the build ing of d new hotel
 John II. Prince has been appointed by General Mackenzie chief Of scouts.
 Itis rumored that Surveyor General Atkinson will be removed, and that Secretary Teller will nominate Mir. Nick ell, of Colorado, in his place.
 The Navaioes have 5000 head of sheep on the San Juan river, off the reserva- tion. The cattle men in that section are apprehensive of trouble and have called on the militia for protection. Governor Sheldon has laid the matter before the Secretary of the Interior and, meantime, has instructed the militia to preserve the peace.
 The action of Governor Tritle, of Ari- zOna, III the matter of the selection of proper person to represent that Terri tory at the Denver mining exposition, Is in marked contrast with the nasty and incompetent selection made by the New Mexico executive. Governor Tritle has relegated the whole matter of selection to the miners themselves and will com mission any person selected by them. As they are the persons most inter- ested in a creditable display of the min eral resources of Arizona, the course of the Governor is to be highly commend ed.
 Upon their return from Mexico, some of the Indian scouts came across the body of an Indian which had been only partially buried by his Chiricahua fel- low maranders. The scouts pulled the body out Ot its hole and discovered that It was clad in the clothes of Sterling, chief of scouts at San Carlos, who was killed the morning of the outbreak. After turning 1t over and otherwise showing theIr hatred for their dead en- nemy, the scouts left the corpse. In a short time a few more scouts came along. They with more forethought went through the pockets of the dead Indians pantaloons and were rewarded by finding eighty dollars.

Mining in YapaVai.
ICourierI


 Hon. w. N. Kelly informs us that par ty of miners at White PIcacho have been taking out ore some of which assays over S7,0OO per ton and shipping the same to San Francisco.
 The Marcus mine, m Weaver district, is reported to be developing good bod les of fine ore.
 Saulsbury < Co. are going to erect a 3O-tOn smelter at Benson, on the S. P. F. R. for reduction of ores from Sonora. The ore from the Phenix mine, recently sold by F.. :. Junior, will be used for huX- ing the Sonora ores. James ROsebOugh is opening q road from the mine to Maricopa via the White Tank Mountains, over which the Phenix ore will be hauled to the railroad.
 The Black Warrior mine Is at the pre- sent moment turning out the best ore of any ledge On the Pacific cOasi, and the indications show that a veritable and very rich bonanza IS now in process of being unehrthed. The Warrior is in Peck district,ab 8 miles south Of Prescott, convenient to plenty of good wood and water. It is about j,OO0 feet above sea level. Near 1t are the Peak, Silver Prince, the Alta and many more mines.
 It is reported that the water will soon b. pumped out of the Tiger mine, ,prepar- atory to working it.
 Another rumor hasit that the Peck will soon be started.
 The Tuscumbia millsi kept steadily at work, and the yield of silver IS said to he satisfactory.
 Prof. Shafer's roasting furnace, Walker distric', is preparing ore for the smelter, which, 1t is said. will be started Monday next.
 Pack trains are steadily employed car rylDg ore from the DOsoris and other mines.
 The Silver Belt mine, in Big Bug dis trict, continues t. yield rich ore, which Is being smelted at the Agua Fria.
 While the bullion output of this sec tiOn IS not. at present, very large, cOnh- dence in the richness and permanency of the mines is felt by everybody and more development work is now being done than at any previous time Tn the history of Havapai county.

The Fnture Yalne of Copper.

Soon We will not allow telegraph wires to be strung through our streets and over our buildings, to the detriment f life and property. And, when the time comes that telegraph wIres nut go under the ground, it will not pay to use any other metal for making them than copper. or steel cOpper-coated. Even now, between our pOpulOus towns and cities, 1t is a question whether it would not be cheap'r, in the long run, to string our telegraph poles with copper wires, or ste'l wires copper plated, owing to theIr greater durability and cOnnec- tivitv, just as railroads have found 1t more economical to use steel rails rather than iron. For conduct ing electricity for lighting, heating, and power purposes, copper wire must be used, and of considerable weight and thickness. It Is said that Edison esti- mates that he alone will require 2,OOO.- 0OO pounds of copper in 1882 There are many other similar companies at work, not only in the city and country, but all over the civilized globe. The same activity prevails wherever there are energetic and civilized nations. As DO man could foresee the extraordinary demand for iron which would prow out of the invention of the steam engine. SO no man living can form a correct esti- mate of the demand for copper. for the coming time, that will be created by this more modern invention of the dyna- motor Mining Gazette.

\ Sensible Man. Prescott COurier.i

In placing Hon. H. NJ. Teller, of Colo rado, at the head of the Interior Depart ment, President Arthur acted well and wisely. NIT. Teller is western man, and his department has to deal with land. Indian and other western questions The Courier undertakes to say that he has so far acted well and wisely. His ideas ot dealing with IndiaDs-hOstile and dotherwise-mayl lack sentimentality, but not reason, justice and common sense. He believes in enabling Indians to earn their living, just as whites do Recently the secretary has grappled with the timber questions and in a decision which will be found elsewhere in the Courier, takes strong ground against the ancient, hide-bound notions that have from time to time been sent forth as Interior Department law and gospel, the tenor of which has, until now, been in favor of the spy and infOrmer and calculated to retard progress and production in the new States and Territories of the Union, whose people furnish the country with about all the gold aud silver there is in and out of circulation. Teller's motto may be said to be Use, but do not waste timber"

WE elsewhere publish a card from the Democratic members of the Tombstone bar in defense of Judge Stilwell, who has been assailed by the cowboy organs of the Territory as being influenced by partisan motives in the exercise of his judicial functions. The card fully ex- unerates Judge Stilwell, and states that his acton in the premises ceuld scarcely have been otherwise and conform to the law and usage.
 The cowboy organ in this city made a particularly malignant editorial attack upon Judge Stilwell in this matter, but has not the fairness to publish the card Of the Tombstone bar in reply thereto. To be just is not a virtue possessed by that journal.

The nnnmed Assassin.

The Washington Critic of the 1st in- stant publishes the following m relation to the condition of the doomed assassin:
 "Guiteau realizes that every succeed ing day hastens him nearer that time when the sentence of the law will be ex- ecuted. The cheerful demeanor and hopeful expressions which have char acterized him throughout, have vanished. The familiar accent and bravado is gone and in its stead the ashen hue of terror has appeared. Reading and writing, once his favorite occupations, are not now resorted to by the assassin. His earnest ponderings are only relieved when occasionally he paces the stone floor of his cell unmindful of the death watch, whose eyes are ever upon him, wringing his hands, and talking m the most incOherent manner. A few nights ago he repaired to his cot about 10. o'clock, and in less than half an h UT woke in the most startled manner, looking wildly around and exclaimed, "I see horrible phantoms before me. What shall I do? My poor brain reels. Oh, why dId l as- sassinate him?' It took some time to pacify the assassin, and when he became quiet he quietly said, Don't mind what l said, I was dreaming. We all dream at times. am no coward. nor am l afraid to die, but" he continued, ''it is not possible that President Arthur is go- ing to permit them to hang me. After what I did to redeem the Republican party I d. not believe he will. If he re- prieves me, or cOmmutes my sentence, the hoodlums will howl, but the respect able element of society will stand by him and endorse his action" Having re- lieved his mind on that score, Guiteau again retired to his cot, but only to find troubled rest.
 A gentleman who lately visited Gui- teau spoke of the near approach of hang ing day, beseeching him to make his peace with his God. Turning with half frightened look, the latter said: "If man fails in this matter, if Charley Reed does not succeed, and if President Arthur dos not stretch out his hand to save me, there is another One-the One above who prompted me to take one life for the country's good. and who protected me from the bullets of Mason and Jones that will still protect me The first hand that is laid upon ne for the purpose of doing violence to me will be instantly withered. I fear no mans power; I am Gods man, and He will protect me"

San CarIos.

A correspOn lent of the Globe Silver Belt writing from San Carlos under date of May 3lst says:
 Chief of scouts Colvig went out last night to look for a Chiricahua named Musee, who left the reservation yester- day, and to look out for White Mountain renegades. This morning at sunrise, about twelve miles of here, the chief ran into a White Mountain camp, where, as soon as they saw him coming, covered up one Indian with blankets. The chief told his Indian scouts to uncover him. When they done so they found he had a Sharp's rifle and revolver laying along side of him. The Indian grabbed the revolver and commenced firing on the scouts, the White Mountains joining in the firing. The Indian scouts then opened on them. The Indian under the blantets and a sqnaw were killed and two squaws wounded by the firing. It is impossible to say whether the scouts shots done iE The cuief of scouts re- ports the dead Indian as one of those implicated in the killing of Turner and Moody at Cherry Creek last September, and also the same Indian who bragged that he killed Captain Hentig at Cibicu.

AMBITIOUS mining companies some times commit a fatal error in building reduction works before they really have mine. Such blunders have cast a cloud over many promising and really meritorious mining districts, not only iu Arizona, but almost in every mining country. To shut down d mill iudefi- nltely after 1t once produced bullion creates a suspicion that the mlne is defective, hOwever, unjust such a suspi- cion may be. It is a good maxim in mining to make haste slowly. The out lay in capital is occasioned in finding out the exact amount of the deposit Of mineral, and in the erection Of works when the supply of ore will warrant it, after which the tide Of wealth flows in the opposite direction.

TIE Bourbon element of the Louis jana Legislature is perfectine measure to regulate the election of Congressmen in that State, which is regarded with suspicion by the opposing political fac tions. The main features of the pro- posed change are identical with the Cal ifornia election laws, and establishes ballots cf uniform appearance and style of printing. The ballot box. however, is completly in the control of the officers of the election. to the exclusion of every other person. The application or tbis cumbersome method only to the cleo tion Of members of Congress gives it a distrustful appearance, and it Is con- sidered a movement Of tine Democracy to perpetuate their control of the State in Congress.
