The Plot to Murder Cribblo one
 Year old.

Federico Gonzalez, alias YnnOcente Valenzuela, after coming into the Vul- ture district, year or two after hls murder of the deputy sheriff of San Louis Obisco county, California, went to work on the ranch of F. l.. Brill. This was about five years ago, and then he was judged to be about twenty-five wears of age. Work was something he did not relish, and he proceeded to es- tablish butcher shop in the noun tains in the neighborhoOd of the dry washers, killing Brill's cattle, and selling beef to the Mexicans working the pla- cers. Tn 1885 d warrant was issued for the arrest of Naluenzuela, but before the same was scrved-or early m April the Vulture stage was taken Tn, and when Valenzuela's camp was reached he was missing 1t was then pretty well established that he got away With the bar oi bullion, valued at $6,OOO. This paper has already stated that Va lenzuela is suspected of having partici- pated in the Barney Martin massacre But We have new facts tO present, show ing the danger to which Grlbole mas long since been exposed ill carrying the bullion to Phenix, and of which he had frequently been informed some seven or eight months ago, Dick Huzzey, who was then running a fast freight between this city and the Nulture, was met on the down trip, d few miles this side of the latter camp, by a Mexican supposed to be Valemzuela, and given few dol lars with which to buy cartridges ID Phenix. Tine Mexican, to secure prompt action on the part of Huzzey, informed the gentleman that if inc did not bring back the ammunition he would XII nm. Dick took back the cartridges, sold his wagon and team in Vulture and qult inc bnsincss. Returning to Phenlx he informed the officers of the clrcum- stances.
 Charley Stephens, who was driving the vulture stage, met with similar ex- perience about the same time. He Was mysteriously met by Mexican, told to buy cartridges, and given the money ior tine same. He secured the ammunl- ton desired, but fortunately left 1t with an other party at Vulture, where 1t re- maiIyld on Rourke's counter for several months. and then was used by other persons.
 oix months ago F. L. Brill had two horses stolen from him, which have not since been recovered. He since learned in a round about way, through MexI- cans, that 1t was not the original lnten- tion to keep his horses, but that they had been taken with the view of inter- ccpting Gribble with the Vulture bull lion, taking hls team, and turning the animals of Brill loose, when they would come home. At this time, one of the would-bc murderers, accidentally dls- charged his pistol, and received a flesh wound in the leg It would necessarily require sometime for the wound to heal and therefore the attack was postponed. It is stated that all the facts related were made known to Gribble, but he re- fused to heed the warnings, doubtless believing that a preconcerted attempt was made to tighten him. The terri ble sequel is already known to the pub lic-Arizonan

Literary and Musical Entertainment

The entertainment given on Tuesday evening faf the benefit of the M. parsonage. as briefly stated m our last issue. was d complete success, and were 1t not for the fact that 1t was worthy Of more than the brief mention already given would be passed py without fur ther notice. The New Minister" by Josiah Aliens wife, was very effectively recited by E. w. French, while Mrs Daisy Brucc's recital of "Over the Hills to the Poor House" was so dramatic as to visihly affect a large part of the au' dience. My Mothers Picture" recited hy Mrs Belle Shull had q greater significance than was probably appa- rent c. many of the audience, as the picture she held in her hand at the time was Ill reality that of her mother, whom she mad not seen since her ear Hest childhood, and the pathos and feel ing exprcsseI m the lines of COwper were more real than assumed. Profes- sor Lamhright's fifteen minutes essay on Higher Education" was d master piec, and was we'll delivered. while Rev. l G. Eherhart's oratiOn, on Michael Angelo was one oi the finest literary gems, and eloquent oratorical produc- tions, We have listened to for long time Miss Mimi Martins recital of High Tide on the coast of Lincoln shire" displayed ability of high order and rare culture. Among the little folks was a due; by Pearl Hutchison and Clare Hcrndon, and song, "Toor- iletoo. 5y Myra Kendall, in which they acquitted themselves splendidy The Thomas Glee Club, under the di- rrction Oi Professor Thomas, rendered three pieces of music in faultless time and tone, and the Lincoln brothers, with two yiolins and cornet, gave a beautiful rendering of "With the An gels. The proceeds of the entertain ment, amounting to $41, went towards paying off the debt on the parlor furni- tuce of the parsonage.
