Investigate It.

The strange disappearance of the Mexican who was ordered out of town by the chief of police a few weeks since, was unknown to the authorities here until to-day, when our correspondent from Huachuca sent the news This young Mexi- can was a harmless fellow and was only nuisance around town, for which reason he was ordered to leave. He went to Fort Huachuca with a Mexicao woman from Tomb stone and this Is the last that was heard from him. What was the ob- ject in hanging him? Had he be- come a nuisance around the post, and was 1t considered the proper thing to do to make way with him in the sam manner that prospec- tor was made way with a few months ago near the post. Burning house is arson, and the military authori- ties are. used to that style of war fare, and can perhaps be excused for burning house and driving the inmates out of doors in the dead of night, because it was an objection able place, but the murder of harm less, innocent men is becoming en- tirely too frequent in this range of mountains.

Why the Bear Got Mad.

Said Mir. Southmaid: "When a man goes out after them he wants to be sure that his ammunition is all right. Three weeks ago I was out gunning for birds and happened to run across a big black bear. He was about ten yards away standing on log and looking at me in the most impertinent manner.
 II always carry couple of buck shot cartridges in my coat pocket for just such occasions. Breaking open my gun, I extracted the car tridges of small shot, kept my eye on the bear and inserted two shells from my left pocket.
 "Then I confidently blazed away at his head. He didn't tumble over as!he ought to have done, but snarl- ed wickedlv and made break for me. Without retreating step l let him have the other barrel, but that didn't stop him worth q cent.
 About that time began to sus- pect that there was some hitch in my combination, and when he knocked the< gun out of my hand I inferred that it was time for me to get away. You ought to have seen me go. Iguess he would have won the race if it hadn't been for a big split powder in the track. The split was just wide enough for me to get through there lively. He reached out and got piece of my shirt, but he stuck fast in the cleft long enough for me to get 100 yards the start, and then I was safe.
 "When ISgot home I found two buckshOt cartridges safe and snug in my side pocket. I must have dropped two other shells in with them absent-mindedly, and it was just my luck to grab the light loads when wanted big shot. I had pep pered that old bear in the face with quail shot, and I don't blame him for getting mad. was mad myself when found it out."-San Fran cisco Examiner.

An Indian Killed.

Yesterday morning news was re- ceived at Coroner Sherman's office [ that the body of a murdered Indian had been found on the road between Tempe and Phoenix, and about six miles east of this town. The coro- ner immediately empanneled a jury and started for the place, but on ar irving there he found that the Tenn pc authorities had already reached the scene and had returned to Tenn pc to deliberate on the evidence. However, the body was still there, and the coroner secured it and brought it to town, placed it in the undertaking establishment of J. A. Bacon, where the remains were rec ognized as those of a member of the Maricopa tribe, named Louis, who has been working on the ranches in the valley for a number of years past. An examination of the body showed that he had been shot in two places, the bullets pass ing through the body, and cut with large knife in several places. There was no theory advanced for the killing, except that he and a number of the tribe, who have been on a big drunk. became involved in a row. and, during the melee, Louis was killed. There is no evidence as to who the murderers are, as the Indiars are not only very reticent regarding the affair, but disclaim all knowledge of the killing.
 Yesterday afternoon the verdict of the coroner's jury was recorded and it states that the deceased came to his death by wounds inflicted by a 45-calibre pistol at the hands of some person unknown to the jury.
 The body of Louis was placed in plain coffin, and will be buried by the county authorities.-Ph9nix Tribune.

Story of a Horse Trade.

There Is a good story relative to a horse trade going the rounds at Buckport, Me. Down there a man had horse which he wanted to sell. In the town were two or three 'smarties" who wanted the nag, but realizing the fact that the owner did not know her true value were laying back, hoping to get the beast for a song.
 Several times the owner tried to sell, but as no one would buy, he became somewhat discouraged. Hitching up one morning, he made a VOW that some ono should have the nag before night, and during the forenoon came across a farmer whom he bantered, and to whom he offered the nag for $50.
 The farmer asked the privilege of driving the horse up the street be- fore buying, and this being granted he started off. He drove around the corner, when one of the "smar-

QuijOtOa Destroyed by Fire.

The fire started in a res taurant in large adobe building containing a store and saloon. The fire ragged furiously for half an hour. consuming the entire town-three restaurants, two saloons, two stores, one lodging house, butcher shop and a number of other houses. MT. SoWers' house and store consumed, on which there was a small insu- rance, which was all the insurance carried. The building in which the fire originated cost $8,0OO in the flush times of the camp, the build CTS paying five cents gallon for water with which to make adobes. As all the mines are closed down this virtually wipes out the camp. Most of the loss is sustained by Tucson merchants, who supplied the camp with goods.

"Let Her Go, Gallahcr."

A correspondent in Lexington
 Ky, wants to know about 'Let her go, Gallagher" This phrase never became as popular as Painting the town red, although last year 1t had some currency. There are forty nine different explanations about how 1t started. One is that there was young baseball pitcher named Gallagher, on the Pacific coast, who was much admired by the boys, and whenever he stood up to pitch they used to shout the phrase. But as the inqniry comes from the south perhaps the writer would like a southern version. Here it is: Ben Screws is the genial and big-hearted magistrate of the city of Montgom- cry. A colored lady, having in. dulged in very 'infamed language toward another of an equally night shade of complexion, the aggrieved one had her arrested and arraigned for trial before the squire. One of the numerous witnesses was very severe in her testimony against the accused, saying, among other things that she used talk that no lady can 'spress.' This so aggravated the defendant that she went for wit ness regardless of surroundings, Tom GalIaher, the squire's Dailiff, tried to stop the wool-pulling that ensued, and caught hold of the de- fendant's arm, when the squire, who likes to see fair play, and withal en- joys a good thing. shouted: Let her go, Gallagher.-Detroit Free Press.

Settlement of the \. P. R.

A judgment for $22, 2,S26,4 was en- tered in the Supreme Court of the Territory against the A. P. R. R. Co. in favor of this county, upon a stipulation of that company by it's attorney and the board of supervi- sors, in full satisfaction of the taxes for the yelr 1887. A like judgment upon similar terms was entered in the District Court for the year 1888. w. c. Hazledine, solicitor for the company, is now in the city and prepared to pay $44, ,684.70 to the collector of the county and take his receipt for the two years. The first judgment was taken at the last sit ting of the Supreme Court in this city, and the term of the District Court just closed. Itremains to be seen if the Territorial authorities will accede to the terms upon which the corporation and the county have based their understanding While it may be accepted as tru- ism, that it is better to take "half a loaf than no loaf at all, ," it is yet a dangerous concession to permit a corporation, fostered by public spirit and sustained by popular patronage, to dictate the terms up- on which it will pay it's portion of the responsibilities incumbent upon all citizens.-PrescOtt Courier.

Some time since mention was made in the press of negotiations between the Chinese Six Companies in this. city, and the Lower Califor. mia Mining Co.,, which if concluded would result in the Chinese mining there on their own account. This week the contracts were signed with the Chinese syndicate, by which they purchased two-fifths of the Masca concession of 115 square miles in Lower California for $32S-, GOO. The Chinese merchants will have voice in the management of the company, with Theophilus Mas tr as president. The contracts as signed provide that the Chinese shall invest S60,000 in improve ments within the next six months. They are also to assume all out standing obligations and to pay all taxas on the property. Within two years they must erect reduction works, and two-thirds of the pro- duct of the mines must be reduced on Mexican soil. By July 1st from 150 to POO Chinese laborers from this city will be taken to the mines. A second installment of from 800 to 1000 coolies will follow in the fall. These laborers go into Lower California with the understanding that they can never return to the United States. In other words they have burned their bridges be- hind them, and will leave San Fran cisco permanently. Of course the merchants and stockholders can go and come at pleasure. The first work to be done at the mines will be the construction of a water Hume six miles in length, at a cost of about $225, ,000.-Mining and Scien- tifc Press.
