CROOKS CAPTURE.

The fol lowing is the tale taken from the St. Louis Democrat HOW going the rounds of the I ress con- corning the alleged capture of Gen eral Crook, in the Sierra Madre mountains by the hiricahuas at the time of his expedition into Mexico
 Gen. Crook, led by hIs White Mountain Apache scouts, was one evening toward dusk detrayed into 8 narrow cahon. During the night all the White Mountain Apache scouts left the camp and took up their positions on the hillsides with the Chiricahuas, who had surround. ed Crook. and had determined upon the massacre of hIS entire force at daylight next morning. Iu' the night a sQuaw, who had some friends among the San Carlos scouts, went into Crooks camp. The San Carlos Apaches, who always feared the White Mountain Apaches, told this woman that Crook had not come down to fight the Chiricahuas nor to kill any of them, IS was cie arly shown by the fact that he had brough with him only ,rty soldiers and $50 Indians, half of whom were the clrse friends of the Chiricahuae. He had come, they sad, to r, ce,vt the surrender of the Chiricahuas, to guarantee them immunity from harm and to take them back to the reservation, where they would be kept at the expense of the Govern ment without having to do any work The squaw left Crooks camp and reported this statement 10 the Chir;- cahuas. 4 council WAS held, and they decided to postpone tue masss> ere until noon the next dAy,provided Crook did not attempt to leave the camp. In the morning when Crook awoke, from behind every rock on both sides of the cadon he saw point ed down towards his camp the rifles of the Chiricahuas. Turning to Capt. Crewford. who was in com

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-A long and elaborate brief of opposition to the attempt of the Southern Pacific rail> road company to obtain the land grant which the Texas Pacific rail- roa company did not earn has been filed with the Secretary of the Inte. rior by Representative Paysnn. of Illinois Although Secretary Teller has refused the application of ar. Sypher. counsel for tue Southern Pacific rlIlroad, for the appointment of a commissioner to examine its railroad preliminary 10 the issue to it of patents for the lands em hraced in the grant, it is unlikely that the GouldsHuntin ton combination will give up the effort to obtain thls vast tract If 15,OoO. 00O acres of land until the ingenuity of the most learned counsel money can procure is ex~ bsi.s.ed.

Tucson In a Sad Way,

"SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. IS Three outrages by desperndoes are report d from Tucson, Arizona. The tele~ grams state that the citizens fear to take measures against the perpetra- tors. Tie Governor will have 10 suppress them, the civil authorities being powerless."
 From the press dispatches to the Albuquerque Journal we clip the above libel on our sister city. Some such dispatch as the above appeared in the Citizen from Lordsburg, N. Nj, a few days since, but some one has seen fit to make Tucson the place. We do not believe the mat ter IS one of mistake, but rather an attempt to injure Tucson, and very dirty attempt it is.

Chairman Health Committee,

The loRg cool evenings have at length made their appearance and with them the season of sociability and entertainment. It would be desirable thing to have some kind of social organizI; among us. No thing would give more pleasure to thos. inclined to music than sing- ing association in connection with instrumental music. Again for those not singers a reading club would add to the pleasure of the winter and social gatherings under the auspices of one or both would do much for the entertainment of those whom circumstances might prevent from taking part in either, r. gularly. There is room for both singing and reading club Tn our town. We have several good vorali~ts and also some good instrumertalists among us. There IS now on hand nucleus for library comprising number of volumes, most of which would probably be new to new organiza> ton and small monthlv dues from each member would serve to supply new books as rapidly as they would be read.
