Probable Suicide.

Yesterday afternoon 6 physician was
 hastily summoned to a bagnio on Maid. en Lane, kept by a mulatto woman named Jennie Woods. to attend a soldier that that was thought to be seriously i'll. The nature of the case was such that the physician was not able to determine at once whether the patient was suffering rom acongestion of the braIn or the ef- tects of poison. He was unconscious and very soon ceased to breathe. The au,horitles at Fort Lowell were notified sho Ihey removed the remains to the burial. ~
 The name of the unfortunate man WAS frank richardson, of Company F, First infantry. He had relatives or friends in LoSeu and Boston, Massachusetts. With whom he maintained a correspond ence. lie had frequently obtained pas ses 70 come to the city and almos in- Vsriaoly remained beyond the limits of the time expressed. He had been pun ished Tor this breach of discipline, but it nad no perceptible effect upon him, and ms eccentric ways had inspired a be- het that his mind was becoming unset tled' and the more recent occurrences nave confirmed the truth of this suppo- sltion, He obtained pass to came to the city, last Monday, and WAS to be at the post at reveille the next morning. but his whereabouts were not learned until his death. He hnd taken rooms at the bag mo and, although he was not given to excess Tn drinking, he remained closely within doors. through fear of discovery by the soldiers. He paid bills that the mulatto woman owed, amounting to s25 and gave her the balance of the S4O be had brought in with him. On Wednes- day he gave the woman 6 sealed letter. addressed simply Jennie" with direc. tons not to open 1t until the next even ing. She says she became alarmed st his long sleep yesterday and sent for the doctor,
 City Marshal Roche made 8 thorougb search ot the premises for evidences of the cause Of the death, and he found a tWo-Ounce vial containing a small amount of lsudanum. It bore the label o! Fred Freshman & O., and Mir. Fleish- man has some recollection of having sold some of the drug few days ago, to soldier. The clerk at the old Yorba drug store also remembers having sold a soldier an.ounce of laudsnum on the 10th of March, who asked him if there was enough to kill & man.
 The letter, now in possession of Mir, Roche, IS in the recognized hand writing of Richardson. 1t calls the mulstto wom- an hls wife, and with many very endear- Ing terms he bade her good bye.
 These circumstances all point to the theory of suicide. The woman is not ss has been stated, but remain ed at a neighbor's house last night.

 We are informed that the lessees of the Webfoot mine, John GIllis and Will liam Meyers are taking out some ore which assays from S70 to S3j0.
 It is 8 fact that silver mines in Globe District, worked( ? by eastern men, aban- dOned and pronounced worthless, are again to the front and some of them are now remunerstively paying. and others, Rs soon as sufficiently developed, will also pay.
 The three grades of Fame ore reduced in the hellner mill worked respectively S2l 3, 2j0 and 900 Ozs. per ton. So far the product of II tons of ore gave 373 ponds of silver worth S4g965 per ton of ore. Work on Fame ore at the mill will be resumed as soon as the trail has sufficiently settled to enable the packing of ore from the mine.

 News from the Fl Capitau mine is most encouraging. It is now reported that the ore chimney has been struck. We have seen some of the ore which contains 10 ASS Of rich black ore, eight inches of which IS heavily charged with ruby silver. This ore will be worked ID the Centennial mill. The importance of this strike Is not over estimated.
 Work on the Blbtsil mine is progress Ing most satisfactorily. Within week a connection Is expected to be made be tween the 3O0 foot .tannel and tho 90-toOt shaft which will relieve the mIne of water. Besides the openings mentioned, there are three drifts connecting with the shaft on the veIn, respectively 90, 45 and 20 feet. It IS the intention of the proprIetOrs, as soon as the old works are drained, to commence stoping in valuable ore. of which there IS an abundance in sight. The ore will be reduced in Dr. Trippels mill.

Aho'her Account of the the Killing ofthe
 Gallant Soldier.
 NEW YORK, March 6.-The Army md Navy Journal publishes a lono ia,tar dated at Fort Grant in Arizona in ra. latlon to the killing of CaptaIn Craw. ford. It gives a history of tbe bnnt through the Mountains after Geron;n1o's Indians. and the details of the figbt in winch Captain Crawford WAS killed very minutely, insisting that the MeTicans dld not mistake the Federal soldiers for Indians; that 1t was their intention ,o drive of Crawford's command and ront ms camps, and that 1t was only when they found the force too strong to he driven oil that they ceased firing and invented the excuse given. The follow Ing editorial summary by the Journal elNes the salient features of the letter. our correspondent reports in the first plhce that the attack was made not at nlght or m the dusk. but by daylight: next that C-awford, when he WAS shot wore lhe uniform of his rank fin the united States service, as dld also Lieut. Msus and the hospital steward who was with hlm; further, 1t appears that Capt. Crawford was killed and his interpreter. Mr. Horn, wounded by musketry fire. opened after the cessation of a preyious attack and while they were standing within twenty-five yards of the Mexican Commander and holding a barley with them, the conversation being carried on ID Spanish by Mir. Horn. The fir ing Of this second attack was continued for an hour and half, and whatever possibility there may be of explaining the first attack. which lasted fifteen min, utes, the second was of such a nature as tolexclude the reasonable presumption of innocence which the law allows. Know ing, as our readers do, the restriction under which the officers are placed, they will accept our assurance that our account, though not coming from them direct, IS that of those who were with Captain Crawford at the time of his death.

friend of his is reported as saying: He
has lost considerable flesh, but is better
new than h was in November. His
sickness is peculiar one, for one day he
is in bed and next day, apparently, he is
perfectly well. He talks nationally
enough, have heard-in fact, know
he has symptoms of softening OF the brain.
The doctors are keeping him up with
stimulsnts all the while, but do not
think he will ever be 4 man again. He
worked too hard in former years, and
kept at it so continuously that at last it
has affected his brain. heard him say,
some time since, he would never go into
politics again. and that after his term as
chairman OF the committee on organiZa-
ton expires in May next he will finally
retire to private life

city. Already enough wells have
been put down to ensure an abund-
ant supply, and if this becomes de-
ficient in after years by reason of
Palatka's growth, we have only to
bore other wells. All we now need
do is to concentrate these streams
into one main from which connec-
tions can be made wherever desired !;
with Holly pump water can be
sent to any height in any quantity.
Why then need we look elsewhere
for our water supply? We have
proved the water from our wells for
years and know it to be wholesome;
why try surface water, which, how
ever beautiful is not brighter than
that we have and which may be inn
pure! Let us not indulge in need

the waters of "ihe limpid brooks"

passage through channels in the
