THERE is soon to be change in l tIe fuel used at our mines and mills. Wood is to be superseded by coal from New Mexico, which it IS believ- ed can be laid down for $12 per ton, or at the same cost as a cord of wood. One ton of coal is estimated to be equivalent to two cords of wood, therefore, the saving to the mining companies will be an item of con- siderable importance. At the pres enr rate of consumption, wood, if c ntinued as the staple fuel, would become an exceeding dear commod. ity. As it is, that supplied to the mines comes mostly from the eastern slope of the Dragoons, from twelve to fifteen miles distant, and costs &l2 per cord.s Tastsupplied for do- nestle purposss. scomes equally high, and this cold weather eats large holes into peoples incomes If the coal e1- pertinent proves sssesssful it is more than probable ths twill, to large extent, supplsatgwsod for all do- mestic purpopes.

 At Blackberry last Monday man named Welden took shot at Dr. Day, but missed him. Doc. got out of the way but returned to the saloon to treat John Bullock, friend whom he met outside. Bullock commenced jeering Welden, when the latter turned loose his revolver and killed Bullock. Weldep was Tn turn seri- ously wounded in attempting. to es- cape, by shot from the hands of Charley Spencer, the scout.
 On Thursday of last week two Chinese vegetable peddlers, who get their supplies in this valley and dis pose of them in the surrounding min ing towrs, left Pinal for Phenix. They were seen by some teamsters on the road that day, but since then team, wagon and men have not been seen. It is pretty evident that they never reached the settlements in this valley, ahd it is feared that they have been foully dealt with, as they had in their possession, after selling their load, in the neighborhood of $500. Several Chinamen have gone out to investigate the matter, and in few days we may be able to throw some light upon this apparent mystery.

 Last Tuesday evening occurred another one of those happy events which tend to create lasting impress sions upon the memories of all who were present. We refer to the nup- tials of Barney Riggs and Miss Ve- nie Hicklin. A few friends only were invited to the ceremony, which took place at the residence of MT. J. M. Riggs, but the number was sufficient to fill the spacious parlors of that gentleman's abode.
 At the hour of nine, when the last guest arrived, prepaI ations were made for the ceremony. The young couple were neatly dressed, and looked handsome, smiling and hap. py. Preceded by the bridesmaid, Miss Laura Hicklin, sister of the bride,) and groomsman, they entered the room from the hall and took places opposite the officiating jus tice, A. E. Fay, who, in a few ap- pIOpIIdlc WOiuo PiohOuiSCu eHCi man and wife. After the final words were said that deprived them of their liberty, the youthful pair patiently submitted to the kisses and congrst, ulations that were showered upon them by those present. Then fol- lowed a general merry making. Toasts, songs and games were the order of the evening. MT. Riggs and his amiable wife were kept busy darting about, here and there, con- tributing to the pleasure and enjoy ment of the company assembled. Time passed quickly under their sue. cessful management, and it was l2 o'clock before the company dis persed.
 The newly welded couple are well and favorably known in the commu- nity. They start out on the voyage of life under bright auspices, and with the well wishes of all who know them.

Globe News.

rrom tne Siooe Chronlcle.
 A miner by the name of James had his leg fractured last Thursday by the fall of bucket in the shaft of the Mack Morris mine. He will, his surgeon thinks, be on his pins again in two or three weeks.
 This vicinity has been blessed with copious rains during the week. It is stated by the oldest inhabitant that Pinal creek has never before been running stream, in its course through Globe, during so many mont hs, and it still flows on.
 The streets of Globe have been alive with talk during the week about the South Pioneer mine. The simple facts are that, on the l00- foot level there IS being taken out an ore body five feet in width, between well de6nec walls, every inch of which containes mineral, the whole being of remarkably uniform grade the average assay made by Mir. E. O. Kennedy from the samples SC. lected through the whole width of the ledge for the purpose of ascer- taining an average, giving result of over $l,000 per ton. This is a remarkable showing, and those bes. able to judge, who have examined the mine, proclaim it equal, if not superior, to the celebrated King mine of Pinal.

NEW pumping machinery, costing $Si. 900, has been put up at the Idaho mine, Grass Valley, California.
A Baneful Industry.

From the s. F. Daily Report.
 The Chronicle claims to be the special friend and organ of the farm ing interests, but is nevertheless sd- vocating the introduction in this state of an industry that would de- stroy the stock ranges and devastate the farms. It wants to introduce ostrich farming into California. Though the ostrich is not, like the goat and coyote, indigenous to Cali fornia, its habits are we'll understood by every schoolboy in the state. One ostrich combines the voracity of a pack of coyotes with the rapacity of two flocks of goats. Two hundred acres of stock range would only af- ford it dozen meals, and it eats sheep, hogs, chickens, rail fences, tin cans, stove lids and eucalyptus trees. The Chronicle is no friend of the farmer when it advocates the ,n- troduction of ostrich farming. There is one advantage, however, in ostrich farming. It does not require muck capital to engage in the business. A good start in ostrich farming could be made for about $40,000.

would be returned. A while afterward three Swedes caught the boy alone away from the camp, and acting on the lesson of former proceedings, hung the boy until dead. These murder CTS, who have acknowledged themselves to me as being deserters from the U. s. steamer Lackawana, are now confined in the county jail awaiting the action of the Grand jury, with every prospect that they will forfeit their miserable lives for their crime. Two murderers, Berry and Hall, will be "jerked to Jesus," next month, for murder, and, altogether, Yavapai county bids far to rival Cochise county in deed1 of violence and bloodshed.
 Prescott Is doing big business iiithe matter of railroad supplies. Everybody here is jubilant over favorable prospects of aprofitable season in mining and oAer in- dustries, and, altogether, Prescott is not the sleepy hollow" that some offer rivals would lead the public to believe
 I notice here some of Tonbstone's ex- pelled vagabonds, "Red Mike" and several others; they are well watched by the popu- lar and efficient City Marshal, Dodson, and from what I can learn their sojourn in the mountain capital will be of short duration.

it would hah been carried into eff feet. He frnestly desired to recon cile secti'E Al differences, and it was his int,Ntion to have visited the South and seek to bring about in- creasd harmony of feeling. From the beginning to the end of the con- trrersy with the political leaders, in WI he was engaged during his K/f tenure of office, he was never fctuated by any desire of gain so himself. Least of all did he har- Dor revenge, and he rarely showed resentment. There was not an hour from the beginning of that struggle to the hour the fatal shot was fired that he did not strive to restore har- mony. He would not have retraced any step, if retracing had involved consequences merely personal to himself.
 Reviewing the immediate circum stances of the assassination on that quiet July morning, the speaker said: "James Garfield may well have been a happy msu. No foreboding evil hsunted him; not the slightest pre- monition of danger c!ouded his star; his terrible fate was upon him in an instant. One moment he stood erect, strong, confident on the years stretching peacefully out before him. the next he lay wounded, bleeding, helpless, doomed to weary weeks of torture; to silence and the grave Great Tn life he was surprsingly ly great in death."

Blaine's EulOgy on Garfield.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-Follow- ing is brief outline of Blaine's eu- logy: After an eloquent reference to the tragical end of Garfield he traced at length his history, showing his descent from puritan and Huge not stock, the struggles of his early life and successes of his more ma ture years. He reviewed hls career as teacher, military officer and leg islator. In depicting his career as congressman, the speaker gave him a commanding position as a debater and man of intellectual power while denying him the power of a great parliamentary leader. The whole tenor of his character was opposed to the subordination of every con- sderation to party purposes charac- teristic of party leader. He had left, however, greater and more en- during monument, his speeches on the reconstruction question, constitution al amendments, finance, and all great questions of his day, which constitute a vast magazine of fact and argu- ment; of clear analysis and sound conclusions. At the beginning of his presidial life iG was not agreeable to
 him. He said, "I have been dealing with ideas all my life, now an deal- ing with persons. have heretofore been giving my attention to the fun damental principles of government, now I am considering all day whether A. or B. shall be appointed to office." Nevert eless, he devoted himself as- siduously to the duties of his office, and showed unexpected administra- tive ability. He was honestly seek ing to correct the evils of the civil service system, and had he lived, comprehensive change would have been proposed by him, and probably with the assistance of congress,
