ONE HORSE THIEF LESS.
John W. Francis, of FlagstAff, Kills Asa
 Upton, on his Refusal to Surrender.

On Monday last, Justice Weather ford placed in the hands of Constable J. w. Francis a warrant charging Asa Upton with horse stealing. Officer Francis left the afternoon train for Woods sheep camp, near Winslow, to arrest the horse thief, but did not ar rive in Winslow till late, so he put off going to the camp until early the next morning, and then started. On arriy- ing at the camp little after sun-up, he saw Bargman, Snyder and Upton sitting around the fire, cooking break fast. Constable Francis then address ed Upton, and said:
 "I've got a warrant for you"
 "What's it for?" Upton asked.
 "For horse stealing" ," replied Francis.
 Upton then got up and again asked, "what's it for" and Francis again re- piled, "for horse stealing" In the meantime Upton had got within about five feet of the tent, inside of which was his Winchester rife. Francis then told him to stop, when he agan asked what the warrant was for, and then stood still for an instant, when he made desperate and determined spring for his gun; then Francis fired the ball entering the left breast. Up ton lived about forty-five minutes after he was shot.

Well, as matter of fact Tucson is the only place in Ari- zona known in Washington, and her republicans are known to be "truly loyal" to the old flag and appropri- ations.

The desperate adventurer had taken his place in the barrel that was to carry him safely through the raging whirlpool or dash against the rocks and toss in splintered frag- ments on the foaming waters beneath whose treacherous waves his mangled body should feed the fishes
 "Are you ready for the closing of the man. holef" inquired an assistant.

PROPOSED EMANCIPATION MONUMENT.
 The base of the monument is to be four feet above the ground and thirty-six feet square, At the corners of this base are four square pedestals with rounded cor ners raised above the top of the base. Approaches rise from the four sides to the top of the base, and heavy bronze railing, terminated above and below against nodded and rich bronze post with lamp on the top, runs along the sides of them. From the center of the base the shaft of the monument rises to 3 height of seventy feet. The shaft is square, and becomes smaller from the base to the top. At each corner of the shaft pedestal, composed of a base, col umn and capital standing against the shaft of the monument, rises from the top of the base to a height of twelve feet. A bronze door in one of the four faces of the shaft opens into g circular well in the center of the shaft, and round iron staircase leads to the platform at or near the top.
 The monument is to be built of gran ite, with cut holdings and carved orna- mentations. On each of the eight ped estals there will be single figure statues of men who entered into the spirit and work of emancipation on the rostrum and battlefield. The summit will be crowned with a huge bronze figure, rep resenting the colored soldier who left the menial work of a slave, and, learning the practice of war, fought for the freedom of himself and loved ones. Dates and historical incidents connected with the slavery Of the colored race in North America will be inscribed on three sides of the obelisk, between the corner pedestals. From the base tc the foot of the crowning statue the height is seventy-four feet, which represent the number of years of human slavery sui fered under the American constitution from 17S9 to 1863. The names of ths contributors will be placed in boz which will be built into secure place in the monument, probably the eornel stone. 2. z (
