Charley Hanson of Granville is in town. He has recently returned from a bear hunt, and reports having found & bunch of five dead horses on one cf south points of the Blue mountains, about forty miles above his camp. They had evidently been driven into the point by the snow, and had slow ly starved to death. He believes that from the indications there were prob ably at least as many more which had fallen and rolled down the mountain side. They were all young animals and so badly decomposed that, if they were branded, it was impossible to distinguish them.

Murder at Morenci.
chairman

Morenci was fhe scene of murder last Sunday morning. From the par ticulars learned it seems that baile was in progress, and about 5 o'clock in the morning Jose Maria Rascon ap- preached Carmen Calderon and asked her to go home with him, to which the woman replied, No, 1 will not go home with you any more." Rascon who was in an intoxicated condition, then pulled his pistol and fired, the ball entering the back of the left side of the woman's head and coming out underneath her right eye. After in flicting the fatal wound the murderer escaped, and although parties were sent in pursuit he was not captured until yesterday morning early. when he was caught at the Longfellow.
 His examination was held the same day before Justice Cast, who bound the man over to appear before the grand jury without bail, and he is now confined in the Clifton jail.
 The murderer is a musician we'll known in Clifton, having played the violin at Hovey's saloon only few weeks ago.
