THE BLOOD WOULD RUN.-For five years
l was a great sufferer from Catarrh. My
nostrils were so sensitive I could not bear
the least bit OF dust; at times so bad that
the blood would run, and at night . could
hardly breathe. After trying many things
without much benefit I used Ely's Cream
Balm. l am a living witness of it's efficacy.

Some think it was caused by lighted match or pipe, in the hands of some person lying down between the build inss, while others are of opinion it was the work of. an inCendiary, through spite to some of the occu- pants. 1he cause will probably never be. known, but owing to the fact that number of men have been lying idle at Williams Tor ssvefal- days, and sleeping out of duors wherever the least shelter was at. hand. 1t is more than probable the fire was the resul, of accident, as We can hardly believe a man could be so depraved as to de. liberately apply the torch for per 5 .nal grievance.

 "As to railroad matters I must say very briefly, that after all my waiting and vexatious delays we were ready to close matters up and cry "Eureka" on Thursday, May 18th, the day of the annual meeting of the A. x P. R. R. Everything agreed upon, to be closed and ratified as soon as the off cers were reelected; but on that very day, or the day previous, rather, the panic struck Wall street, and we have been hung up ever since. must say 1t looked blue, and when I went to see Col. Mutt this morning was pre- pared to hear him say, "well, Colonel, you may as we'll hang the Mineral Belt up and go home,' but no, he as. sured me that the outlook for an i'm mediate and favorable termination of their long and vexatious negotiations with the Southern Pacific never look ed better than to day, and if l can hold out little longer will be made happy. You see sub committee of the executive committee of the A. $ F., consisting of the president of three roads, the A. & P, the St. Louis & San Francisco and the A. T. & Santa Fe had been instructed to buy the material for us, including rails, fast. enings, ties, etc., and deliver the same at the junction, and they were only waiting for their re election when the panic struck. Better than that we had man worth SIo, GOO ,ooo who stood ready as soon as the raul roads took that step to contract for the entire block of bonds from the A. & P, to Globe, so we could push the road through to Globe, with all possi- ble dispatch. Can ycu realize fully the situation3 Wait yet little long, CT and get along the best you can, and l believe all will be we'll; and I base that belief on the statement of Col.

ANOTHER BUSINESS FEEDER.
The Verde and Tonto Basin Roads to Flag
 stan at Last Ordered Built.

The citizens of Flagstaff have req son to rejoice and feel glad, as we'll as consider that as taxpayers of Yarapai county some attention is be. ing paid to them and their interests by the powers that be in Prescott other than the sending in our midst of the taX.gatherer annually, the Board of Supervisors, now in session, having created the road districts known as the Flagstaff and Verde, and the Tonto Basin, for which they have petitioned and appealed for so long, They are of SO much import ance as auxiharies or feeders to the trade of Flagstaff, running as they do through country naturally tributary to this town, that it is to be hoped they will be laid out and opened up a' peedily as possible, and the large trad- of the numerous ranchers liv. ing in the vicinity of the newdistricts that is now transacted in Gla county will be diverted to Flagstaff, where it rightly belongs, and prove an impetus 10 business that cannot help but be felt by all, and add 10 the further progress of the town.
 The Verde roar runs southwest from this town via O'Neils springs, Mund's and Woods ranches, Rattle snake springs, and thence to the Verde, Wm Fain, Esq, we'll known here, has been appointed overseer on this road. He has filed his bond and knowing the urgent necessity of It's immediate construction work will! be commenced at once.
 The Tonto Basin road begins at the southern boundary line or the county, and runs through Tonto Basin via Pine springs, Sunset dairy, Fischer $ tanks, and thence to Flagstaff. MT. Sam Houston has been appointed O erseer, and he will unquestionably push it's construction as rapidly as pos. s.ble.
 The opening of this road has long been demanded for the general public good, lying dormant as there is known to be in the Tcnto Basin district i'm mense mineral deposits, and which at this time is attracting considerable attention, that will at once be worked the want of suitable communica- tlon to the railroad having proven a great barrier to their development. This Flagstaff route brings the mines within easy range of this town, and will prove bonanza to our merchants,

Have We Dynamiters Amongst Us |?

Thursday night, about IT o'clock, as ye reporter had curled up under his blankets to bid adieu to care and take a dose of Nlture's tonic--sweet sleep-lfe was brought up standing in hurry by a loud explosion. The report came from the vicinity of the sawmill, but a glance in that direc. ton in the bright moonlight showed that structure still 'held the fort" and we turned in, believing some en. thuSiaStle Democrat had received some joyous news from Chicago, and couldn't wait until morning to tell it to his neighEors. In the morning a visit to the old town explained the afr ,ir. the fronts of Copley x Stanley and MT. Bailey's saloons having near ly all the glass blown out, while the owners were good-naturedly discus sing the why and wherefore of this attempt 10 land them into Kingdom come. It seems that either from in tent or by accident some one had dropped dynamite, or several sticks of giant powder between Messrs. Bailey and Copley & Stanley's build ings, The shock shattered things pretty generally, "Scotty" Bailey, of No. saloon, sleeping near where the explosion occurred, being raised one better and landed in the mid. dle of the floor. Dan Copley qm ea sa6e. If it is dynamiters they ought to know that both him and his partner are both American off-shoots ofthe "ould dart," and attributes the disaster either to carelessness or malic- iousness. If the latter, 1t is to be hoped that the ftnd will be discov- cred and receive the punishment he merits.

On the Fourth of iu,y | strarRe

On the Fourth Of July | stranger about six feet tall, wearing linen
 duster, ani rom appearances look .d
 to be past fifty years of age, mounted
 on a fine looking horse drove into
 town and put up at Mir. l,erry's San
 Juan saloon. He made himself at
 home, taking hand in the various games, spending his money quite
 freely. He made every effort to be social with every enc, and when ques-
 toned as to his name, last residence,
 and occupation, stated that his name
 was Fred. Fischer, that his home was
 in Los Angeles, Cal, that his
 business was prospecting, and that he
 had struck it rich in California, and
 was now in Flagstaff to look over the recent discoveries in the Grand Can. yon. If the prospects were favor. able it was, he would state conhdenti. ally, his mission to notify hts partners, one of whom was an assayist, and if the latter found the mineral "pay dirt" company of English capitalists stood ready to at once 'devel. op the mine. His liberality and seeming openness to substantiate his remarks, led Mir. Berry to believe he was square, and when his cash gave out he accommodated him by cashing check on the Central Bank of Albu. querque Tor s4oo, in favor of one ]. Carsons MT. Berry forwarded the check to the Bank, and it being re. turned unhonored, Mir. Berry inter. viewed Fischer at the point of a handy persuader, made him give up the S4oo, but retained the fraudulent pa. per, and at once s~ore out a warrant for the arrest of the forger. He was brought before Justice Marshall Mon- day. and asking for a continuance until Wednesday in order to secure bal, it was granted. On "Wednesday during the progress of the examina. ton Marshal Dykes, who had custody Of the prisoner, was given a warran, for the arrest of Hawks and Black for the assault upon Mrs. Friedel of old town, and as they were reported to be in the vicinity of Blackberry, and trying to get out of the Territory, he asked the Court what he would do with his prisoner Fischer if he went in pursuit of the fleeing fugitives. Justice Marshall. in open court, told MT. Dykes to leave him in the custody of the Court, and that it would take proper care of him. That evening Forger Fischer turned up missing, and no one seems to know how, or where he went, and general regret IS expressed at his escape. as he was no doubt an unprincipied scoun- drel, whose proper abode was Yuma, 1 and MT. Berry had the dead cinch to | send him there. Justice Marshall keenly feels that he is justly to be cen sured for lack of proper diligence in allowing the prisoner to get out of hls sight, but he was under the in.- presslon, from the statement of a friend of the prisoner, that he would l furnish bail and stand trial.

Messrs. Eckenrode and brother, of Union
town, in your county, have removed to our
town.
One of our most prominent citizens (Mr.
Wingerd) died last week. His death is much
regretted wherever he is known. He was one
of the directors of the Frick Mfg. Co.; also
Of the American Mfg. ca. Neither of the
companies opened on the morning Of the
funeral, giving all of their employees an oppor-
tqnity TO attend it.
Leslie Johnston, one of the employees at
Friek & Co.'S. works, got his hand or the
wrong side of steam hammer on Saturday
morning last, and had two fingers so badly
crushed that they had to be ampqtated. The
accident, it is said, was the result OF trl9k
played upon Johnston.
Mr.. Jas. Oller, who has been president Of
the Geiser Co. since the death of Daniel
Geiser, has resigned his position, and Mr..
Daniel Hood has been elected in his stead.
Mrs. Rebecca Cunningham, wife of Thomas
Cunningham, has made application to the
court for divorce.

at present working upwards of seven hundred
hands, running night and day, and the Geiser
Co. nearly as many. Work is pressing.
The streets of our town are in bad condi-
ton, and the long spell of bad weather has
made them much worse, as wherever there
was was loose brick it was filed underneath
with water, and caused much discomfort t4
the unfortunate victim that trod upon it.

Church by Elder Solomon Buckalew, closed
