THE FLORENCE TRAGEDY.
Marshal Eyan,. s,,s,en.n,

EDIToR CTTIrRN: Through the columns of your paper I desire to submit the following to the public: On the 2d instant l received a writ from Judge Pinney directing the United States Marshal to take possession of l.. c. Rediield. who was confined in the conn., ty jail at Florence In obedience to said writ proceeded to Florence and arrived there on yesterday morning at 3 o'clock, and served my writ on the under sheriff of the county in whose custody the said Redfeld was. The under sheriff positively declined to surrender Redfield to me stating as hls reason for such refusal that he had re- celved orders from the sheriff not to deliver the person of Redfeld to any one under any circumstances whatever. Fearing mob violence l made several different propositions to the under sheriff that would enable me to protect Redfeld pending the under sheriff communicating with Sheriff DOran, who was said tD be in Ben son, all of winch propositions were dlssented to, and l was assured by the county officers and numerous other rep resentative citizens that no violence would be used, and that the law should take its course. District Attorney Har- desty directed the under-sheriff not to surrender the prisoner to me, and in- formed him that the writ by virtue of which I demanded the prisoner was il- legal, and issued by Judge PInney with ont authority. l was informed that one of the reasons why the county suthori- ties would not surrender Pedfeld to me was that there were a number of cowboys outside of town who would waylay me and rescue Redfeld. To this l replled tbat ] was perfectly will iug that any number of citizens should accompany me, and see that Redteld was safely carried tn Phenix. The un- der-sheriff summoned numerous posse for the ayowed purpose of protecting his jail from being forcibly entered, but appearances indicate that this body of men who were placed m and around the jail as guards are the ones who did the lynching.
 Many of the statements contained in the telegrsms of yesterday from Flor l ence were gross peryersions of facts.

| seftdihiN NO ENcur-ions Aunohhteu TOT the season Equal the F. < O.'s Special series-some Idea of What Baltimore
 Win Do.
 There appears c. be almost no end to the novelties being perfected for the Oriole festivities in Baltimore in Sep tember. It will truly be as termed, summer nights carnival, and certainly nothing like 1t was ever before attempt ed Tn any city of the continent. There will be electricity Tn all its forms, arc lights and incandescent lights, focus lights and tiambeaux. torches in various colors, Greek fire, calcium and gas, until night will be turned into day. The pyrOtechnic features will be on scale of great extent and variety, some of the set pieces promising to be mar vicious in effect. The whole city will be lighted as never before. The different monuments with which the metropolis abounds will be girdled by electrical bands, while the lofty and majestic dome of the City Hall will be fairly ablaze. Every avenue leading to novelty Tn illumination IS eagerly sought after, and old Baltimore will indeed show her self this year. The night display in the harbOr will be q gorgeous sight; and the arrival of Lord Baltimore something to remember for years. The Mystic Pageant on the third night will beyond all comparison excel anything Of the description ever attempted not alone in this country but ID any country. Other cities are content with from eighteen to twenty-twO floats, the latter number being the greatest ever embraced within one pageant in any city. Baltimore almost doubles this, as her pageant on the night of the 18th of September will in- elude less than forty tableaux cars, larger, more imposing and grander in every way, than ever before shone. Or dinarily the number of characters intro duced Tn a pagneant Is less than one hundred. In the Baltimore pageant there will be two hundred and thirty characters upon the floats, every cos tune entirely new and imported from Paris direct. It will require thirteen hundred men, two hundred and forty horses, over fifteen thousand gas jets, eight bands of music, and other acce-sC- ries Tn like magnificent proportion. The actual cash outlay necessary to place | the pageant upon the streets of Baltl- l more will exceed thirty-fve thousand | dollars. The characters are assumed l exclusively by members of the O-der of l OrIole, merchants and business men of | the highest standing. The special se- l ries of excursions arranged by the Bal | timore and Ohio are meeting with un- l disguised favor, as they admit of visit 1 ing so many places Of great interest | in addition to the OriOle at Baltimore. As all the festivities in the Monumental | City are at night, the days can be put in i visiting Washington, Old Point Comfort, | Fortress Monroe, Luray Caves. Harper's | Ferry, and very many other points. The | rate Is down to the very lowest notch, | half-fare from all stations on the enOr- nous system embraced within the B. k l O. management.

IT will soon be twenty years since Howard, Goodwin, Mccormick, Fleury and others camped at Nanajo Springs and made R territorial organization. Great changes have been wrought in the Territory during thls time. Civilization has taken the place of barbarian. Our valleys are filled with an industrious, law-abidinC people, the Indians having gwen away and settled upon reservation land. The hillsides and plains are dot ted with sheep, cattle and horses. The entire breadth of the Territory north and south has been spanned with the iron highway A great commerce has grown up from mountain resources, and the ten thousand mineral deposits are welding precious ores at every stroke of the miners hammer, and We behold. turn where we may, bounteoGs returns for the seed sowu, a prosperity greater than that vOnchsafed Co many of the states and territories.-Prescott Miner.

The Late J. M. Bryan.

Mr Bryan was born in Missouri 43 years ago. He came to California with his father when boy, and in 1864 emil grated to Arizona, where he has resided ever since, always identifying himself with the material development of the same, and to his energy and persever- ance can be traced many valuable enter prises, edifices, etc. In 1864 he com menced farming at Wickenburg, and subsequently abandoned 1t for freight ing, which, he kept up during life He was for many years connected with the ore contract -fieighting-at the VHlture, and when operations ceased there, un- der Superintendent Sexton, he was left to the amount of $S4,OO0. This WAS hard blow, but with indomitable will and courage he commenced anew, oper- ating in lands, stock and teaming at Phenix, where he owned at the time Of his death a large estate, worth all the way from S75OOO to SlO0,OO0.-Miner.
