Terrible Esairroad Accident.

Denver, Colorado, April "A ter rible accident occurred on the Atch ison, Topeka & Santa Fe railroad, south branch, yesterday morning about 8 o'clock, which caused the ln- stant death of man and serious in- jury to two others. The freight train broke in two two or three miles southwest of La Junta at the top of the hill on a heavy curve grade aud the accident was not discovered by the engineer until the bottom of the down grade had been reached. The engine was stopped and before the men on the engine realized what had become of the rest of the train, the red light of the caboose of the rear section was seen coming down the grade at a terrible rate of speed. The cars were so close that 1t was impos- sible for the engine to get out of the way, and the collision came with such force as to smash several of the cars to kindling wood. The force of the collision was so great that the tender was crowded upon the engine, badly wrecking the cab and knocking the valves off the boiler thus allowing the steam to escape. Fireman Jas. Horner jumped but the force of the collision knocked him against the bank and he was instantly killed by the breaking of his neck, although he was neither burned or scalded. Engineer Jas. Willard jumped in time to avoid the jam but had his right leg badly scalded and his knee fractured. The head brakeman named Dickson, who was. riding on the engine had one foot smashed and was terribly scalded about the breast.

Mehave county is fortunate in be- longing to the district presided over by the Hon. c. G. W. French. Dur ing the two years he has been as signed to this district he has held live terms of court ln this county alone besides the terms in Yavapai and Apache counties. During thIa time also the great bulk of the work of the Supreme Court has fallen on his shoulders, and this in addition to the work of a district $ large as some Eastern States. While his as sociates have spent their time in trips to the East and California and have expected Judge Preach 10 attend to their business as well as his own, the latter has devoted the last five years to the courtroom and his chambers without single holiday or a minute that he might call hIs own. It is well for this territory and particular ly this district that our honored Chief Justice is man who believes in consulting the pubhc welfare be- fore personal pleasure and III this respect his associates on the Supreme Bench may find much that is worthy of imitation.
Mohave County miner., 1883-04-15

The April term of the District Court adjourned last Wednesday sine die, after a session lasting only nine days. During this short period oi time the accumulated business of the past seven months was disposed of leaving but two cases to go over to the next term in which continuancGs were unavoidable. The Grand Jury found only one indictment for as sault, and this case might have been disposed of before a Justice of the Peace, and were discharged the day after being impanneled. This speaks well for Mohaye county and its off, cials. We have had the same law less element in our midst that Yava pal county has had and found so hard to control, brought hither by the same ailIoad, and yet in seven months there has been but one crim- inal in our county jail against thirty or more in Yavapai county, necessi tating an extra term of the District Court being held there to dispose of the criminal business alone. Judge French came here two weeks ago with several members of the Prescott bar, all expecting to find a long list Of criminal cases to be tried this term and would hardly believe that there was but one only. We hardly know how to account for it unless it be owing to the fact that the law is promptly and fearlessly enforced ID this county and that the criminal ele- nent are well aware of 1t and behave themselves accordingly. It is pretty we'll known m this territory that Mo have county juries invariably convict when the evidence is conclusive of guilt, and it seems to be the prevail lng impression among the crowd of roughs that the railroad has brought to our county that our miners are bad men to fool with. It is to be hoped that this state of things will long continue in this county and we think thai if will

Attemnted Train Robberr

St. Louis, April 6.-An attempt was made to wreck a train on the Missouri Pacific railroad. sixteen miles north of Denton, Texas, yester day, but no harm was done.

A negro was discovered near the ob- struction, and jailed.

Important Discovery.

Birmingham, Eng, April 5.-The city police made raid upon sus- pected locality on Ledsome and La dywood streets and descended on a Fenian nitro glycerine factory in full operation.
 The apparatus for preparing the explosive compounds Is constructed on scientific principles, which clearly slow it's inventor not only to be a thorough scholar in chemistry and machinery, but also an adept in ex- pedients for avoiding notoriety and avoiding discovery.
 It was learned that the premises in Ledsome street were taken two months ago by man named White head, all Irish-American, who adver- tised as a paper hanger. Whitehead was taken into custody when the DO lice descended on the den, and is now in close confinement.
 A considerable quantity of nitro glycerine was seized by the officials at the same time. Information is now in the hands of the detectives which tends to demonstrate that this place IS the central manufactory of explosives, and the most important depot of internal contrivances.
 Whitehead, who IS described as about twenty-five years of age, is of dark complexion and has a marked American accent. He has been in the habit of buying the supplies of nitro glycerine and acids which were necessary to run the business.
