Tombstone epitaph., 1888-01-28


 Four masked men, heavily armed entered the Citizen Bark, at Lone Stone Indian Territory, last Saturday, and demanded that Cashier W. T. Reynolds hand over the coin. Reynolds pre- tended to do so, but slammed the safe door and turned the lock. He was shot dead at once by one of the men. They then sacked about $2o,ooo. The robbers then failed to open the safe; and the pistol shot attracted attention, so that when about to escape with the booty, an armed body of men appeared and fight was started, and eof the robb rskilled. The other three were pursued and cap tured, the leader strung up and the re- maining two were turned over to the United States authorities. All the money was recovered,

A year ago when Mir. E. w. Shortridge did his assessment work on his claims on the east side of the Santa Rita noun tsins, about 5,4oo feet above the sea level, few pieces of potatoes were scat tered around. On his return this year he found they had taken root and grown. Those in the neighborhood of the grass used as bedding had done exceptionally we'll. He gathered some 40 or 50 pota- toes of various sizes, some of them fully two inches in diameter. They were as clean and firm as any grown under the most favorable circumstances. .-Citizen.

Last Wednesday, Officer Wiser arrest ed three tramps on suspicion, and found some valuable jewelry in their possession. Believing the property to be stolen, Chief Oaks held the men pending inves. tigation, thinking he could connect them with the recent house-breaklng in this city; but one G. w. Swain, jack-leg lawyer, in his eager endeavors to obtain fee, got ont writ ofhabeas corpus and interfered with the investiga, .on. Receiv. ing an intimation, and the evidence, at hand not being sufficient to hold the tramps, Chief Oaks discharged them of his own voli.ion before the service of the writ. And so Swain lost his fee and the respect of the officers who were trying to do their duty.

A BIG STRIKE IN TOMBSTONE.

The "ev,p oi organized labor has foun, an exempli6catisn here in Tombstone The man and boy engaged In th mechanlcal department of the Dali Prospector, having lived on wind pud- ding and promises as long as the huma system could exist on that sort of diet on "Wednesday last concluded to strik' for what was due them. The result oi this cold, cruel and heartless treatmen on the part of the purse-proud printer, was that the Daily Prospector, under tn management of Nash & Co.,, was obligeo to suspend, and the owners were con pelled to take charge of their paper an get out the issue which appeared Thurs day morning. It is understood in future the following will be the staff:
 A. J. Ritter, financial editor.
 s. C. Bagg, business manager.
 C. N. Thomas, sporting editor
 To. Pascholy, fashion correspondent.
 Charley Bartholomew, court reporter.
 James Reilly, foreign correspondent.
 M. C. Crowley, snake editor.
 To. Madero, printer.
 Pat Holland, pressman.
 This is strong combination, financial as well as brainy. The very first move they made on taking charge of the organ was to get bundle of white paper out of the express office that had been lying there month, that souless corpor ,tion, Wells, Fargo & Co.,, refusing to let the paper go out until the charges were paid. And thus it is corporations and the Knights of Labor combine to "down" great enterprises. Even threats to "burn them up," seemed to have no effect, for be it known that blackmailing in Tomb stone is played out. Since the EPITAPH's exboSe of the Nash methods in that respect, the Prospector has grown sickly and dropped and has finally died. The Tombstone people are little slow, but they get there. Whether they will take kindly to MT. Ritter's management of the opinion-meulder remains to be seen. Just at the present time the people of Cochise county do not feel very kindly to public servant who claims in idi- ton to the salary paid him, nearly S7,ooo in fees. They think he will want the earth next. However the people can depend on the EPITAPH to keep them posted.

An Albuquerque dispatch says it is stated with some degree of certainty that work on the Mesa canal will commence in ten days. Men, provisions and tools are now on the ground, the location of the camp being twenty miles north of Santa Fe. The canal will be thirty feet wide at the top and eighteen at the bot tom and six feet deep, running distance of I42 miles, touching the southern edge of Rio Arriba county, passing south through Santa Fe, Bernalillo, Valencia and Socorro counties, and retapping the Rio Grande at point near the town of Socorro. Over I,5oo,ooo acres of now useless land will be reclaimed by this canal. The supply of water will be in. exhaustible, as the canal taps the Rio Grande at the starting. point and i'm mense storage reservoirs will be built at intervals along its line. Guy Robertson, of Kansas City, is manager of this great enterprise, the construction of which will cost over $I.ooo,ooo.

The Hildebrant cattle seizure cases which have attracted so much attention for the past few days, were disposed o yesterday, the case having been submit
 ed to Judge Barnes, jury being waived
 lhe findings and remarks of the court w. re recelved with commendation by al parties who have becom familiar with the facts. 1, would ha been calam- ity to Pima county had the law denied ranchmen upon the line the privilege oi turing back into the United States cat tie which merely graze over the line. It is no' possible to drive every animal that steps-over an imaginary line past some custom house, nor is that necessary to protect the revenues. The action of the court officers in this case shows conclu- sively that the honest cattle grower will be protected in his property, but woe to the smuggler; the man who really i'm. ports stock with the purpose of defraud- ing the government of its revenue - Star

The leap year party given by the young ladies of Tombstone, at Mining Ex- change hall last evening, was great so- cial success. More than forty couples were in attendance and a most enjoyable time was had. The Trevilian orchestra furnished the music, and an elegant sup. per was spread. The girls gave the boys a few points on how to entertain wh oh the latter would do we'll to note. Of course much of the credit for the success of the affair is due to the matrons, who assisted the young ladies in the manage. ment of the party. The reception and floor commit,ees-in fact all the ladies' spared no pains to make the gentlemen feel at ease in the peculiar position the leap year has placed them. The occasion was one which will long be remembered.

McNeil, the notorious horse thief and stage robber and supposed murderer, es- capped from the Pinal county jail Wednes- day morning, having recently escaped from the Phenix i,il, and boasting that he would soon leave that one. He was heavily shackled and confined under close guard in his cell. On that morn ing for the first time he was allowed in the jail yard, the sheriff with him. The gates by some oversight were left open
 and he darted out when the sheriff's at. tention was diverted, and although he was shackled, has so far eluded pursuit

With the Lower Gila Bend canal almost completed and ready to receive water; the Hall ditch in full operation, and the St. Louis ditch project ready to be started in good earnest at an early date, the prospects for the surrounding country are indeed assuring. A new and commodious hotel will be erected imme- diately, and many other improvements are being made and more in view. -Ari- ZOnan
