He missed his hold, and Tn falling his foot was caught by the wheel, and was horribly mangled. He was picked up and kindly cared for by the citizens, and having no money, about S6o was contributed by the bystanders, and on his arrival here the fact of his impoverished con, d,tion being made known, Sheriff Black circulated paper and sue. ceeded in raising liberal amount to meet the demands of his unfortunate condition.

Death of J. II. Prescott.

During the fore part of last week, Geo. l. Baker and ]. H. Prescott left Flagstaff. and on Saturday they arrived at the junction of Oak CreeK and Miners canon, near the Thomp- son and Corporal ranch. There the party descended into the canon, and ln gong down Prescott was severely >,ung by wasps, and he called loudly for Baker. Arriving at the bottom. the two commenced preparing supper, and Baker soon after laid down for sleep. He was aroused by Prescott, who was taken with severe vomitin' [, saving he thought he had been drink Ing too much water. Prescott went to the ranch to get something to cook coffee in, and when he came out of the building seemed to act curiously, as if Jeranged, and before he reached camp tell down in a fit. Baker ran to Thompson's ranch for aid, and when he and MT. Thompson returned Pres colt was dead. Baker came into town and reported the circumstances to Justice Marshal, thinking that a coroner's inquest ought to be held.
 The Judge, after hearing the c.rcum- stances of the death, could see no reason for an inquest, so none was held, and the body was buried in the canon where the deceased came to his death. His companion, Baker, brought to town the horse rode by the deceased, which was the property of MT. Prentiss, together with the per sonal effects. Prescott had started for the Verde, on prospecting trip. He was subject to fits, and previous to leaving here had been drinking heavily for some time, and at the time of his death had been without liquor for three days. His age was about 50 years, and he had resided in this vicinity for the past two years. He was at one time proprietor of the billiard hail in the Fremont house in Chicago, and had been prominent in business circles in the east for years before coming to this country.

 am again called upon to respond 10 one of those cowardly, sneaking letters, which ] have been the reclpi ent oi a second time during the past two weeks. Anonymous communi cations have very little effect, except to annoy, as those who wri t them aIe not men enough to make an honorable fight. l am and have been inve-ti gatIng into this matter, and will tr, my pest to bring to light the instlga- tors. There Is already some of the dirty work traced 10 channel which may yet result satisfactorily, and whl, do not fear their letters any more than their threats. l am ready at ali 'imcs, night or day, to protect my property, and will do so. l am get ting properly on to their racket, and one of them. and l believe 1 am cor rect, may not be compelled to settle the borrowed money blll he owes me Tn person, but may yet be sent 10 the happy hunting grounds, leaving all numerous bills unpaid. As there are five or six in the gang, and all spotted, ii any or all of them make an attack on my property, they will each require wooden boxes in short order.
