 | Banks. alias Dutchy, Brooks. Carter,
 Worth and Ed Williams. the prisoners
 who escaped from the Territorial prison
 on the evening of May IS, had a short
 lease of liberty, being at largo barely
 tweDty-four hours. The manner ot their | escape showed at they were DO EDvlces
 at the business.
 They had made a saw by hacking
 teeth ID an old trowel that had been sur | repttiously obtained, and sawed the
 arm or hasp that Eeid the doors when
 locked nearly in two. This work was carefully concealed filling the cTeyice with soap mixed with ion dust, thus en- tirely ob iterating any signs that the hasp had been tempered with.
 The united strength Of two or three of them was sufficient to break the re- mainder of the hasp and their liberty Co the hallway Was obtained. From here their final exit was easily accomplished Oy climbing the grating to place where the wall had been partly broken in or der 70 join the new cells to the main buildings, and by little work they ei- fected passage out upon the roof Of the new cells, thence to the roof of the pris- on proper, and from there to the closets where the distance to the ground was but a few feet.
 The prompt, euergetIc action taken by Superintendent Metden led t. their speedy capture an return to their old quarters, where they were all heavily IrOned in a manner that will make any future attempt Co gain their freedom un- successful.
 Mr. Meeden's acton in thismltter was highly commenIable. Not an instant was allowed to go to waste, after the escape was discovered, and gs soon as the trail Was struck he crowded things with such perseverance that the capture was certain. He was ably assisted by two of his guards, MT. John Costello and Mir. John Marille.

An ArchmoIoyiclI Museum.

The archaeological treasures Uf Paris will shortly include a collection of old boots. It will be the most curious fed- ture of the new sale to be opened Dext month m connection with the Musee de Cluuy, and promises to be the most complete history in leather of the boot makers art ths world has vet seen. To the specimens already acquired by the museum have just been added tive ta- nous p-iyat co lections namely, those of M. Jacquemart and the Baron Schu- ter-tOgether with a number Oi boots once worn by Venetian cOUrie.s, pur- chased on behalf of tine French govern ment in Italy a few days since. In tne same room will be shown the ancient tapestries and articles of clothing for merly belonging to the Chateau tie Boussac. which but for a convenient French law would have passeI into for eigu hands. The Commune de B1ussac, being m want of mouey,w was actually ne gOtiating with German agents for tue sale of these relics of the past, when the government stepped in, claiming the collection under the historical monu- meuts law. The tapestries are now be- ing restored, and SD cleyer!y will the work be done that only the eye of an experienced archRol1gist will be able to distinguish the new patches from the ancient fabric

The Full Penalty.

Judge Pnney, in sentencing May Woodman, who murdered Kinsman, in Tombstone. made use of the following language, which foreshadows a deter mination to mete ont exact justice to criminals and stamp out crime by visit ing the extreme penalties prescribed by law. The judge proceeded tolstate that, hlvIng been found guilty. it become his duty to pass sentence that while his sympathy, as well as that of the com munity went out to her, being woman, his duty as a magistrate prevented him from allowing 1t to warp his judgment, or stand in the way of justice. The cus- tom SD prevalent m thIs country of using weapons on slight pretext for the pur- pose of redressing wrongs must be stop ped. The practice of carrying concealed weapons, especially at night, was com mented on and condemned in the sever- est terms. The jGdge, in conclusion, in- formed the prisoner that her term in the penitenhary could be utilized by her in preparation for a higher and better life. That the full limit of the law was com paratively light sentence taken m con- nection with the crime, and he felt that his duty compelled him to sentence the prisoner for the term of five years, the utmost limit prescribed for this offeuse.

Lawn and Bubble.

The event ot the season came and
 went with the lawn and bubble social
 last evening. For the past two weeks
 the ladies of the Congregational Church
 Society have been busy completing ar
 engagements for 1t by the appointed time,
 which was by many waited for in anx- ious expectancy. The announcement that Hon. II. $. Stevens Lad kindly ten dered the use ot his beautiful lawn for the purpose named, fureshadowed sue cess. Hitherto all similar entertain ments m Tucson, however sulfocating the weather may have been, have been within doors. Consequently when it became known that the most spacious and at the same tune the most beautiful lawn in Arizona would be entertainment, many decided to take advantage of the occasion for delight ful stroll over the grass and among the trees.
 Those doing so were richly rewarded for the scene looked like a picture drawn from fairy and. The cultivated beauty of the lawn was further enhanced by the display of Chinese lanterns, locomotive headlights, ban ners and gaily bedecksd booths, placed in every cOIgn Of vantage for ef- feet. The general exclamation on en- tering the lawn was, How beauhfulr' "How lovely""I had no idea that there was such place in Tucson {"
 The ladies in charge had made ample provisions for their guests. whom they supphed to thelr hearts desire with ice cream, cake, strawberries, lemonade, and the biggest bubbles that ever grew out of the bowl Of d pipe.
 The flower booth was presided over by Mss Lilly and Elene Anderson. Mrs. '. l.. Stiles and Mrs. John Bergman kept tally of the bubbles blown, charged and collected one cent for every bub ble that aspired to be larger than its neighoor. Miss Bessie Warren and Miss Lena Woods tempered lemonade accord ing to taste, while Mrs. W. c. Davis, Mrs. Prince. Mrs. Fitch, Mrs. Judge Haynes, Mrs. Herbert Brown, Mrs. Rob lnson and a number of other ladies waited on the tables, to all of whom for their efforts much deserving credit is due.
 Financlally as well as socially the was grand success. To AIr. Stevens for his kindness m allowing | use of his lawn th- ladies connected with the society felt very grateful

ADiscnmlIled Drummer.

A lieutenant of the navy, while on the South Atlantic station, recently, had 0 commission from the manufacturers Of a new rifle Co try and sell lot of them to Dom Pedro. The lieutenant intimated through the proper channels that he should feel hOnOred if the emperor would examine the gun. His majesty readily granted an audience. and the young officer went to the palace with a very fine specimen rifle which had been presented ro nm by the compang. The gun was exhibited and explained. and then handed t1 the emperor for exami- nation. Dom Pedro took 1t, sad in Por- tuguese that he was "awfully obliged" and motioned the chamberlain, or some other functionary, tO show the gentle man out. There was no help for it. and the lieutenant backed to the doorway and withdrew without his rifle.

CALABASAS, May Zl, 100.
 EDITOR CITIzEN-In the issue of the Star of Inc 2Oth inst, notice quite lengthy article from the so-called Major Turner, who is Justice of the Peace ID a place that was once called Harshaw, but Is now situated in the woods in the Pat aronia mountains, and failing to have a case in his own precinct goes into an- other and makes himself quite oficious, finding public feeling against the pris- oner. That, however, was all right; but when the so-called Major gets upoI his own dunghill. then he in talking of the prisoner tells the citizens what fine trees there are in Harshaw with nice project iug limbs-thinking and knowing, in fact, that by such talk the citizens were becoming excited, and having m my possess on a telegram from Sheriff Paul to bring the prisoner to Tucson, l did so: and did so without notice to the Patagonia Judge, be- cause I believed he was the "leader Of the mob" He might not have done so, had 1t not been for the condl- tion of mind he was those who know him best can tell the probable cause. He speaks of 'such contempt of court not being often niulged in.' Now, MT. Editor, if a little petty Justice of the Peace m the back woods IS of more lm- portance than the Sheriff of the county it Is something I have yet to learn. As far as NIT. Lisle is concerned l arrested him without warrant, tthank God at that tune we were better of tha1 liar shaw in not having any Justice of the Peace at alb and held nm f0rty-elght hours ou simply a letter sent friend CT mine and took him to Tubac twice at my own expense. and then only let hlm 70 because I was ordered to do so-the nr,secuting witness failing to put m an appearauce, not having received either of two telegrams I had sent him And even in Tucson after had delivered mv prisoner m jail, when the attempt was made to get him out upon writ of babeas corpus, I made a new complaint upon information and belief. In the mean time I leave this matter for the citizens to judge who are m sober | condition. Yours respectfully,

PRESCOTT, A. T., May 2J.
 EDITOR CITIZEN Knowing that your people take lively interest in the pros perity Of the Territory, I take pleasure in reporting to your paper the facts con- corning a phenomenal mineral disecv- cry near here last week. It is a ledge of nearly pure silver, and WAS found by Messrs. Billy Gavin and MT. Morgan. In company with the Editor of the Miner. Mir. Charles Beach. of this city, I visited the locality of the new find to- day, and although from what l had heard was prepared to see fine pros pect. vet I saw what to me is wonder full vein of silver ore. It is in Turkey Greek Mining District, twenty-three miles south of Prescott, two miles west of the mill of the Arizona Consolidated Mining Company, nine miles north of the Peck mine. We found Mr. Nlor- gan mining in the hole winch IS not more than five feet deep and about the size of an ordinary shaft. The ledge matter is about four feet wide. On the west side or near the hanging wall Is a vein of silver nearly pure, two feet tblck, which will 20 from S12,OJO to S2i,OOO l Der ton. They have taken out one piece l weighing over lJ0 pounds winch Is nearly solid silver, and can be whittled | with a knife. I examined carefully to | ascertain if this find was not bunch of | ore only, but 1t Is m a true Assure vein | with good hanging and foot walls. The | ore body extends the length of the shaft l and seems to be widening as they | 20 down on it. Mir. Morgan has been at work about one week, and has aken out alone about S30,O0O worth of ,re. Much excitement prevails in that 'iciuity. It IS in the center Of a rich mineral country, and no doubt there will be other rich veins equally good ound in thas neighborhOOd. The Arl- ona Consolidated Mining company have fine property which is being rapidly developed. Messrs. Gavin aud Morgan ave named the mine the Lone Pine. It s a blind lead. and was found by tracing ip the float. From present appearances [ will prove one of the most remarkable lInes ever discovered in Arizona. A own to be called Goodwin has been tarted near the mine. There IS plenty | f timber and water all around this amp. l brought some of the ore to 'rescOtt which will assay S26WO per on. Yours, etc,

ELECTRICAL MATTERS.
The Progress of Electrical Invention in
 the Patent Onice.


 Some very interesting and suggestive facts are stated by Mir. NJ. Bentley, one of the examiners of the electrical di- vision Of the patent office, regarding the wonderful progress of electrical science in the past few years. About two thou sand applications for patents on electri- cal inventions were filed in 1882, of which about rwO-thirds were granted. In 1887 electricity was a sub-class in division; now it Is the largest and most important division in the patent office. Fms astonishing growth Is due chiefly to two causes First, the invention of the telephone: second, the development of the magnetO electrical machine. The former has stimulated invention of im- provements and collateral appliances, and the latter has afforded a cheap and convenient source of electricity. I'm mediately following the discoveries of Faraday and others. from 1880 to lSi0, there was a widespread effort to make practical use of them, and special activity was manifest in the line of cleo tric lighting. The arc light was put into practical form. and the foundations of lighting were lad. But l no economic source of electricity was at l hand, for the galvanic battery consumed l too much zinc for profit. The principle | of the magnetO-electric machine had, | indeed, been long known, but 1t was left for the Italian PaeinOtI, Tn lS6O, to | perfect a ma hine wherein continuous and constant currents were generated. | The idea literally laid on the shelf, how ever. until lS70 when Gramme reinvent- ed practically the same machine, and pushed 1t into notice. lie was speedily by the SIemens brothers of Berlin, and by Mir. Brush and others ID he United States. The magnetic-elec- -ric machine, afTording a cheap and abundant supply of electricity, imme- iIately rendered practical all the half inventions of thirty years, and opened the way to many new ones. Brush got his patent in 1877, Weston soon after, and many other inventors nave made new applications of the mar 7ell0us force.

1 Japanese Delicacy.

In his book on Japan published in London, Dr. Dresser mentions a curi- ous dainty of the table which has es- capped notice of most travellers. namely; a dish of fish so delicately carved that 10 vital part IS touched, and the fish is still alive, glarlng on its devourer when the last slice of it's flesh has been con- sumed. Dr. Dresser declares that hari- kari Is not performed by opening the abdomen, but by thrusting a sharp sword into the neck behind the wind pipe and pushing 1t forward till the throat IS severed. The misunderstood ing of the operation has arisen, says the author, from the fact that the person in tending suicide scratches upon his stomach certain marks which explain to the initiated the cause Of his death.
