The prisoners wife soon came up with some clean clothing for her husband, and as he was in the act of handing i, to him b. caught a hutcher-kuife from hls belt and plunged it four times in her breast and side, each time turning the blade, Indian fashion, to make the work If death more certain; while his arm was raised the fifth time the guard fired up- on him, the ball entering under the up- lifted arm and passing through his body. The man and wife fell side by side and are now being buried in the same grave. The act of the guard Is ap- p.ovei by whites and Ind ans. All is quiet at San Carlos.
