from a small engine standing In the

thought, burned out, and the fire falling
out on tho floor started the flames.

Letter From Rev. ]. F. Berry.i

The many friends of Rev. Mir. Berry, who did such good work in the Metho- dist Episcopal church of this city, will be pleased to read the appended letter addressed to Prof. G. c. Hall, and to learn that he is gradually recovering from his recent severe illness:
 MOUNT CLEMENS, MICH. :
 February F, lSSL
 My DEAR HALL: Your brief and pun gent letter was received in due time, but owing to my recent and serious illness I have been unable to reply before this date.
 am now sufficiently recovered to do little correspondence and also per form little pastoral work every day. Of course you know l have been very low with brain difficulties I have only learned recently the true nature of the disease, and It Is cause of great sur prise to the physicians and thankful ness to myself that have recovered my mental strength as rapidly as l have. The prospects now are that l will gain slowly and steadily, and after a time be as strong and vigorous as ever. l fer vently trust It may be so. The overwhelming and crushing sor- row of our loss Is now partially past away; but there is that feeling of sad ness, of loneliness, of vacancy which IS ever present, but cannot be described. ! l think that soreness of heart expresses the feeling as well any other words. You know what 1t Is; you and your wife have felt it. My Frankie was all in all to me. 1 as you knew, and this is not the same world without him. But time, they tell l me, will heal these wounds. Perhaps il | will l am glad to hear that Tucson is pick l ing up in business matters. We occa- siopally get paper that speaks of your 1 prosperity, and bright prospects,. In view of the sad events of the past | four months l can see it was mistake l for me to return to this climate. IL was this fearful feeling that nearly drove me | to an asylum. But 1t is human to err. | Sometime I hope to return 10 the Pa | ciic coast and make me home there probably in southern California. I shall be glad to hear from you when | get time to write me a few lines.
 My regards to your wife and other | friends. l am still
 Your old friend.

Flagstaff Champion, Feb. is.l
 The snow has been SO deep that the water " tgon on some days has failed to connect, and some families have had to melt snow for family use
 Messrs. RobinsoI and Frye, from Oak Creek, came in yesterday, and report the snow 2S inches deep m their locality.
 Phil Holstein, boss Of the water ser wee at this point, travelled to O'Neirs ranch, a distance of nine miles on SHOW shoes this week, and was six hours mek- ing the trip.
 One brave hunter brought in this week thirteen wild turkeys, which were purchased by Daggs Bros. & Clark, and have all sInce been disposed of at retail. Deer. antelope and wild turkey are found in great abundance in this vicinity.
 One of the locomotives using Q a snow blow last week, while coming towards new town, tore off all the caps hold ing the side timbers. We have ex- pected some one to get a furlough before this time
 Deputy Sheriff Black returned from
  lodging the two SmithmHns and Chris tian, the three cattle thieves, III jail; also Charles SpInney. who is imprisoned on charge of defrauding his creditors. Our townsman John Francis, who ac- companied the Deputy Sheriff, has also returned. They report the stage route between Ash Fork and Prescott as hor- rible, owing to the 1ritted snow.
 Snow has fallen to depth of at least two feet ID this secron. and the nights are extremely cold. During Monday and Tuesday of this week there was strong wind, which drifted the snow to great depths in some places. completely block ing the railroad. which has caused the trains to run several hours behind. But now the sky is clear, the storm has ceased, and during the middle of the day the SHOW thaws -apidly. Below us, m Mohave county, the storm consisted principally of rain, which came down heavily for two or three days, mingle with snow. which makes the roads sl- most impossible for 8 time, and threat ems serious washcuts near the Needles, as Is always the case after a severe water fall. We can expect a severe flood, winch may do great damage on the fifth divi- sion of the railroad when the breakup becomes general.

The Long Vote.

The number of postal cards sent out to voters regarding the smelter project, was 1.165, and thus far only l72 have been returned The vote now stands 150 for, and 42 against the appropriation. One interested party gives three separate answers as follows:
 "If the smelter company expend at least S60.000 in addition, yes"
 "If the smelter IS to cost but Sl5,OOO. No. Pima county had better go into the smelling business herself"
 If the smelter company put up SI5,OOO more, yes, provided Pima county comes in as an equal partner"
 Another voter would answer yes, provided "they give security-that they will do the work they say they will in the time specified"

4 Mad Mans SeIf-TOrture.

Yesterday the CITIZEN made mention of crazy Frenchman named Peter Joseph being taken from the emigrant train and lodged in the county iaIl. This morning the turnkey discovered him grasping his throat between his hands and gradually choking to death. The demented man must have thus pre- vented his own breathing for minute or two before discovery, as he was in a semi-conscious condition. The imprint of his clinched fingers in the flesh of his throat could be plainly seen an hour atterward. The man who would thus infiict self-torture must indeed be des- ! perately mad.

The Railroad WaShOut.

But one wire of the railroad company was at work to-day, and hence there was little news to be learned at the depot about the washout. MT. Booth. clerk of the Superintendent office, told a CITI- ZEN reporter this afternoon that in all probability no through train would arrive from California within ten days. No details of the disaster are at hand. Local trains are now running to and from Yuma on time.
