Petty Thieying,

About five o'clock Friday morning Mir w. E. Stevens who resides at No. PIG North Main street, was awakened by hearing some one take the milk pitcher from before his door. Hastily dressing, he hurried out and saw a Mexican wo- man walking rapidly down the street. By running he overlook her and asked her for his pitcher which she denied having, but be forcibly pulled aside her shawl and the pitcher came to light The woman did not seem to be in any way concerned and said that the pitcher belonged to her and had been brought from her house, but at MT. Stevens sug- gestion she handed it over to him and was allowed to go on. Such petty thieving in that part of the city is becoming a little too frequent. That Is the second attempt made to take such articles from the same place, the first time the thief was sue cessful. The latter time ended as stated. Others living in the same neighborhood have by such losses been even more annoyed than Mir. Stevens, their milk cans having been repeatedly stolen until 1t IS hazar dous tc put them out over night with any certainty of finding them in place in the morning. If the police would occasionally rope one of the thieves in and have them punished, it would put stop 60 such thievery in the future.

 William E. Badeau has filled a com plaint in the Superior Court against Jas. k. keene, John D. Prince, James White ly. Harry E. Logan, Henry C. Oakland and MAyna;d d c. Eyre, charging the de fendants with having entered into d conspiracy to which c. F. McDermott, of San Francisct', was also party, to deceive and mislesd the public as tO the value of two mines in the TOmbstOno district of ArizOna Territory, known as the Bradshaw and the Washington mines, and to float upon the market stock of two companies formed to wOrl these mines. The defendants, except MT. Keene. were members of the firm Of Prince & Whitely, which issued ciicu- lars containing alleged fraudulent mis- representations of the value of tbest mines; stating that the Bradshaw mine was particularly valuable; that ore of the value of S70,OOO had already been taken from 1t, and that at the timet the circulars were issued the mine was being worked and silver ore of the estimated value Oi SS29, 34 was in sight. The capita stock of the company was fixed at g.  24O,O 900, in Sl0 shares. The circulart represented that this capital stock wat fully paid up and the shares were moi assessable; that the company had a UO' k ing capital of S75,000, and posse ssed ap- paratus of great value for working the mines. The capital stock of the Wash ington Mining Company was placed al Sl,000,OOO, in S shares, and the company was represented to have working cap ital of $50,OO0. Mir. Badeau cha ges that all these statements were untrue; that the Bradshaw mine was not worth | more than S50,OO0 and that the value of the Washington mine was less than l S2O, 900; that the reports of the mlniUg | engineers and metallurgists which were | in the circulars were untrue and fraudulent and the whole scheme | swindle, and that the defendants had | S6OOOOO for stock of the com panies which they had put upon the market, which they had divided among themselves. Mir. Badeau seeks to re- cover back S1S00 which he says he in- vested in the stock of the Bradshaw company through being misled by the misrepresentations of the defendants. It is understood that the defendants deny all these allegations.

The Apache Strike.

4 big strike of almost virgin copper was made in the Apache mine in the Santa Catalina Mountains last Sunday. The mine is owned by the Copper Con- pany now in operation at that place. The copper as extracted from the shaft IS so pure that the shelter in charge of the works IS reported to have said that he would put the copper through the jacket for the purpose of making it into bars, otherwise the melting of it would not improve it. The quan- tity is said to be fairly large and promise an additional increase in quantity with depth. The company have already shipped twenty tons of copper bullion and have more ready for shipment. The company, it is under stood, will also ship lumber to the Tucson market, the product of their mill near the Copper camp. The lum- Der is cut in the mountains above the mill, which are said to abound in the best of pine Much of it when sawed is unmarked by knot or shake and IS said to be equal to the pine of California or Oregon.

How 1t originated Is yet a mystery, but ossibly it was the result of carelessness on the part of some smoker.

We have once before spoken of the night sprees and disorder in our town. We feel that unless something is done to stop this, our city will sufTer from evil reports. We last night witnessed scenes that were actually disgraceful. On Arivaipal street we saw several noisy drunks, some dead drunks, and we are sorry to say, women running on that street en dishabille, drunk, disorderly and acting in a manner tJtally at variance with the good of the town. Summer costumes are necessity, but night clothes are little too disgraceful a costume for a well civilized com munity to witness. The night watchman was where he could see all this, but no effort was made to stop it. If he cannot see to order being maintained let some one be procured who will do it, and no more such actions as last night be seen on our streets.-Pheni1 Herald.

Mir. Wm. Winslow, who returned from the Papago country, states that all re ports of ill dOings of the Papago h. dians iD that country are false and with out foundation whatever, and that they were undoubtedly put in circulation by some one maliciously inclined who through that means sought harm to the different camps in that country. But the story deserves no credence for the Indians are not only peaceably inclined towards the whites as they have always been. but frequently allow themselves to be imposed upon without making any attempt at resentment.

He says that one shot was fired close to his face. It may have been meant kind ly but John don't think that other peo- pie would have acted differently under like circumstances.
