Accounts from Harqua Hala give every indication that there will be a very rich camp in that neighborhood. The recent discovery by the Quinns goes to show that there can be no present estimate formed of the mum Der of mines that may be hidden in the district. The Quinns find was al most in the nature of an accident, as the ledge was struck after penetrating the lime capping, and there was no indication on the surface, of the exist ence of a mine. There may be any number of lodges lying under the lime that, in time, will be uncovered by the pick of the prospector, and, like the Golden Crown, prove to be phenomenally rich.-Yuma Sentinel.

A GHASTLY SIGHT.
Al. Richards Found Weltering in His Own
 RIOed-Ne Cine.


 This morning about g o'clock Al. Richards, proprietor of the Grand Central saloon, was found in his bed in the saloon, where he slept, in an unconscious condition from a deep wound on his forehead evidently made by blunt instrument. pr. Huse was called and dressed the wound but con sciousness had not returned as we go to press.
 The motive for the crime was evid- ently robbery as MT. Richards was known to always have several hundred dollars on his person, and a search of his clothing showed that his pocket book had been emptied, although a small sack of silver was found under his pillow. He was evidently struck while sleeping as no outcry or noise was heard, and the blow was struck several hours previous to the discovery as blood had dried on the hands and face. The money drawer had not been opened and contained its usual amount of small change. Nothing in the sa- loon was disturbed. The rear door was unlocked and the adobe wall showed fresh marks where some one had climbed over it. So far the off cers have been unable to find any trace of the probable assassin nor the weapon with which the deed was done.

Charles Cowles and John Todman discovered mine near the Macy and Mack gold mine, in this county, prin- cipally owned by A. Frank of Yuma, and only about 600 feet above said mine. The mine proved vary rich end about two thousand dollars in nuggets were taken out the first day. The dis coverers who are partners of Capt. Jack Mellon, of the river steamers, had no supplies, and Todman took a row boat and started down the Colo rado river to purchase what was needed. Two days afterwards the boat was found bottom upwards, adrift in the river, and since then Todman has not been heard of. It is believed that he has been drowned. John Tod man was an old pioneer in mining and is well known in Tombstone, Nogales and Sonora. The mine they discovered is traditional mine which has been known to the Indians for a great many years. Four years ago Yuma squaw conducted two residents of Yuma to the neighborho cd ., this property on promise to slow them cheap gold" When within two hundred yards of the mine the squaw sat down and said, in Spanish, "look." The two men could see no indications of gold and got angry at the woman, threaten ing her with dire punishment if she did not show them gold. All she would say, however, was "look." In a half hour they got disgusted and started for home. The squaw was simply carrying out the superstition of the Indians, which impels them to refuse to show the white man gold. It is to be hoped that Todman is safe, but the chances are against him. He was or is a true and honest man, lov- ing his kind.-Yuma Sentinel.

The voluptuous variety goddesses, whose glittering scarcity of raiment has lately overwhelmed the Phenician bald headers, by the very bitterness of it's dazzling non-existence, are, after all, gems Of better water -+hSu they seem. At least some of our veteran statesmen probably think so.

The editor of the Nogales Record denies the rumor that he is about to resume his old occupation of railroad ing and says that he intends to remain in Nogales for all time to come, or words to that effect. That's right brother; stay with the pot, even if you don't amass a colossal fortune. You'll have a whole lot of experience dumped on your shoulders and have the satis- faction of being damned backwards, forwards, endways, sideways and all ways for 365 days of every blessed year.

Grippe is somewhat like the country from which it came-it is no respecter of person except when compelled to do SO.
