 In the case of Mohave county vs
 the Atlantic 6 Pacific railroad com
 pany for delinquent taxes, Judge
 Wright rendered decision in favor
 of the county, awarding $28,000.
 Two accidents resulting in the loss ot life occurred on the Atlantic & Pacific railroad on the 9th. W. J. Carter, a railroad employe, was run over by an engine and killed, at Williams: and at Carriga, the Aue9 of 8 freight engine blew out, injuring four men, the fire man and brakeman fatally, 1t is thought.
 In the District Court of Mohave county, held at Kinglnan, Pete Shell, a Mexican, was convicted of stock stealing and sentenced to a term in Yuma prison. Kittie Blonger, tried for the murder of Charles Hill at Peach Springs, February 22d last, was acquitted. Tucker, charged with em- bezzling money from Wells, Fargo 6 Co.,, was also acquitted.
 The Butte Inter-Mountain states that w. 4. Clark did not buy the Uni ted Verde copper mines, but leased them for two years, with the privilege of purchasing, which he will probably do. There are some eight or ten mines in the group. They were worked quite extensively m 1883 1, but not much since. The United Verde group show plenty of ore of good grade There IS a smelling pIant of about 100 tons capacity on the mlne. MT. Clark says his product there will be about 25 block copper and the balance high grade matte. It Is 24 miles over @ rough read to the railway, which will cut down the profits, but with the present prices there is good | money in it. He may decide to 1n- crease the capacity of the works.

AN ATTEMPTED 5ARE BREWERY.

An unsuccessful attempt was made Friday morning, at 2:3O o'clock, by six masked men, tO either lynch or re- lease prisoners in the county jail-it IS not known which. Hugh Bleyins, night watchman, was called to the door of the outer corridor and upon asking 'IS that you, George?' (mean- ing the Sheriff, George Shute) some one outside replied, Yes, let me in. '' Mir. Blevins opened the door, when six masked men, armed with Wnches- ters, entered, forced Mir. Blevins into the inner corridor and placed guard over him. Tie others then turned their attention to the cage, which they attempted to open and succeeded in taking off one of the locks. The sec ond lock, however, they found more troublesome, and before they could accomplish their purpose, the prison CTS had raised such cry that the jail breakers were frightened off and lett post Laste
 There are several theories afoat as to the object of the visit, all of which, however, are mere suppOsitions. Burns and Blevins, prisoners, claim to have recognized three or four of tke visit ors, who, they assert, intended lynch ing them.

AssEssMENT WORK es MINES.

Having been requested to state tht
 requirements of the statute expressed
 in the term "$1OO worth of annua
 labor" relating to the holding of min.
 Ing claims, we have have to say that
 the District Court of this Judicial Dis.
 trict recently ruled that twenty-five
 days labor, besides the timber, pow
 der and other material used, is neces-
 sary in order to meet the provisions of
 the law under Arizena statutes. Local
 laws can, however, be established
 which would impose greater num-
 Der of actual days labor, but in their
 absence the ruling quoted will govern.
 A local law or custom must be reas-
 onable, and the decision of our court
 being founded upon a scale of wages
 now Tn operation in the Territory,
 certain district could not go behind
 that decision and provide that a less number of days work should constr ute the annual expenditure of S1OO. Under decision of the U s. Supreme Court this annual work IS not only re- quired to be done upon lode claims, but also upon placer claims.
 The annual work" must comprise some act that directly tends to develop the claim and extract the ore from the ground. The building of house for miners who are working the claim is not sufficient, and the cost of the same can form no part of the required S100 worth of improvements. So in dig ging a well or cleaning a spring, un- less done for the purpose of procuring water for machinery used in working the mlne. The building of a fence around claim, or any part thereof, could hardly come within the purview of the law, but the construction of buildings for machinery, and also the cost of placing the engines, hoisting works, etc., in position for work might. 
 Our reference to Bailey's delicious imburg cheese, which tickles the palate, and causes its consumers to wax fat, recalls a reminiscence in re- alton to it, in 1883, which awakened staid old mare from a somnoent 'everie and caused her to scamper over l mile or more of rocks, and uneven ground. She was an unlnvited guest It an lmprovised dinner party com posed of Frank Burke, II. E. Wilcox, Charley WiDterberger and w. A. Holmes. During an animated dIscus- ion of the perplexities arising to min ng camps remote from railroad facil- ties, a plate of hmburg was uucov- red, and while the ambient atmos- there throbbed with the odor arising . rom tribute of the cheese, and the nare being to windward snufIing the reeze, her head rose as quickly as z hat of Jacks from the box; she snort d and taking French leave was soon yer the hills and far away. and Mir. iolmes, the proprietor of the mare , nd saddle, painfully toiled in her rake, having the definite object in lew of recovering his property, and | lcreasing the distance between him :; alt and the cheese.

YELLOW FEVER.

A Slight Reduction of Cases at JACK SON.
ville-St1ll Great Mortality.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, September 1.-The
official bulletin for yesterday reports only
thirty-two new cases Of yellow fever for
the twenty -four hours ended at O'Clock
p. m, and six deaths. Total number of
cases to date, 637; total deaths, 20. Some
regard the reduction in new cases as the
effects of the storm, but physicians see
no reason to hope for any abate-
ment of the disease on that account.
One hundred more nurses are needed.
The mortality is still very light where
cases are promptly and properly treated
and nursed. Several have died from want
of proper nursing, being in charge of
field hands who protested to be nurses.
The board of health has issued cir
cular giving formula for self-treatment
that will be the occasion of much good.
1t is estimated there has been 80 per cent
more cases, principally very mild ones,
than have been reported to the board of
health. The order of the board that yellow
flags be placed only at houses where relief
is required, has caused several physicians,
who heretofore concealed cases, to report.
