Board of EoualizatIon.

The Territorial Board Of Equaliz ation is now in session at Prescott. Some actions taken by the board relating to various county assessments will be of interest. The proceedings, as talk en from the Journal Miner ill con densed form, will be found below:
 A comparison of the assessment re turns from the various counties for 1887 with those returned by the boards of supervisors for this year, 1888, serious discrepancies have been found by the board of equalization. In some of the counties this year the various assessors failed to find as many acres of land as last year by several thousand, while there was also fall ing off in the value of various kinds of property.
 On city and town lots the board has raised the assessed value as returned this year, ten per cent ip Graham county and twenty per cent in Yuma, those of the other counties remaining the same as returned.
 On improvements on city and town property raise was made of ten per cent in Cochise, ten per cent in Ora ham and ten per cent in Yuma
 On lands, the assessment in Apache, Maricopa. Mohave, Yayapai and Pinal were untouched, while raise of ten per cent in Cochise, twenty per cent in Gila, ten per cent in Graham and twenty per cent in Yuma was ordered.
 On improvements on lands, the board has raised the assessment ten per cent in Apache, Graham, Pima and Pinal, and twenty per cent in Cc- chise and Yuma, the other counties remaining as returned.
 On cattle Q raise of five per cent was made in Apache, Cochise, Graham and Final
 The value of cattle as assessed in the various counties is $l050 per head head in the southern counties $I2.2l in Yavapai and $1225 in Mohave.
 On all other animals The assess ments as returned have been permit ted to remain.
 The returns from the various coun ties show only two swine assessed ii Yuma county, while Cochise appears as the banner county of the Territory in not having single ho g in 1t.

 The international French Canadian con cention for 1888 was recently held at Nashua, N. H. These conventions have been held annually from 1867 to 1876, and since then in 1878, 1880, 1884 and 1886. At the convention of 1886 there were 500 delegates. At the last corUen- lion at Nashua the number was swelled to over 500.
 There are now moro than 1000 GOO French Canadians in the United States There are 3G6, coo in New England, 100, 600 in New York. with 500, GOO in the states and territories west of Ohio.

How It Was Done.

From Sheriff Slaughter, who return ed from the Mescal ranch last evening the Prospector learns that he has been on the trail of the murderers of Luce TO for the past five days, but as yet has not succeeded in locating them The facts of the killing of his deputy were correct as told in these columns few days ago, with the exception of the discovery of the whereabouts of Luce TO by the willy Manuel It seems the latter came to the ranch where Lu- cero was stopping and asked for a watermelon. The lady of the house told him that her husband was not home but that stranger was stopping there who had just gone to the creek for water. Manuel asked the strang- CTS name, and when told that it was a man by the name of Cesario Lucero, asked no more questions, but left inn mediately for the adjoining canyon and notified his companion, who at once went to the ranch and waylaid the unfortunate man, whose life they took before he had time to reach the ranch house. The woman, who knew nothing of the relations existing be tween the two men. was dumbfounded when she found out the outcome oI her conversation with Manuel.-Pros pector.

Two little misses belonging to different households, but living in the same neighbor- hood, on the east side, have ceased to speak as they pass by. Death lately robbed one of them of baby brother. The other evening she went by the house of neighbor, while her former companion was sitting on the door step with a young lady. Both with a toss of the head and swing of their skirts expressed their mutual contempt. Why ,n said the young lady to the one on the door step, ''don't you speak to Maggie any morcr 'No, don't" was the response.
