onSTlH thompson ndS been aSSiuuOuS in bringing the murderers of Ed. Baker to justice, and has been the means of incar- cerating the suspected parties. Chief Guadalupe was arrested at Fort Apache by Thompson, and by the aid of 5. $ Pat terson brought to Globe, through a thick ly inhabited Indian country without mil itary escort. Bak-elche, Bat-dish and Nat-ga- son, were arrested upon a warrant telegraphed Col Mizner by Sheriff Ihomp- son, and they are now imprisoned at Apache awaiting the arrival of Under Sheriff Pemberton, who left Globe on Tuesday and who Is promised military es- cOrt so as to insure their safe convoy to this county, where the extent of their cul- pab1llty will be inquired into Guadalupe Is secret serv1ce man and has two sons (scouts) also charged with participating in the murder of Baker. The Indians here referred to have long since been re- garded by residents of Gila county as robbers and otherwise dangerous to the white community. and. therefore 1t is mystery why they should enjoy the con tidence of the military who employ them for the protection of the whites and the peace of the reservation.
 A patent has been issued to Dudley I. Craig, of Final ranch, for an adding ma chine. It IS simply and ingeniously con structed on the principle of the Hammond type writer, and for rapidity and accuracy should excel any of the devices for the same purpose now on the market. It Is provided with one hundred keys consecu- lively numbered from l to 100 and will add two columns at time. Mir Craig Is now at work on a machine designed to add, subtract and multiply, and has sui tio1aOf lV tbof hA fAaic conf dent of success.

It IS claimed that the proposed road will shorten the distance between Globe and Riverside about six miles, A. G. Pendleton Is now engaged in making the survey.
 Richmond Basin Is now the liveliest camp in Gi!a county outside Of Globe dis trict. There are some thirty chlOriders there, whom the rise in silver has encour- aged to increased efforts Moyle and Viette have lot of ore ready for ship ment and lessees on the Mack Morris and other claims are reported as taking out good ore. The Basin mines are among the best i'll this section and should be operated on a larger scale
 The Buffalo Mining Company have everything in readiness to commence bus mess when sufficient coke arrives. Teams have been delayed by heavy roads and high water in the Gila river, but will be- gin to roll in within a few days. There IS an abundance of good ore in the mine and the bins are full. The crushing of ore began on Thursday, and the smelter will probably be blown in next week. 1 Jack RaynOr, mail carrier between | Florence and Riverside, narrowly escaped | being carried away by a tremendous flood l in cai1on south of Riverside few days ago. The water came upon him with i such force that ii was with great difficult ] ty he managed to reach place of safety with his team and blackboard.
 We learn from Mr. Roggenstroh that i thirteen colts were killed and five other domestic animals wounded on his range within ten weeks, by lions. We also learn that other localities have suffered severely from carniverous animals and have no hope that the stock interests will improve until general and more hber- al scalp law is enacted, which will justify a business of killing them.
 Hampton Ellis, while at work on the new ore chute of the Old Dominion Com pany, on Friday of last week, jumped to save himself from falling, and alighted on a pile of timbers. The descent was at least ten feet, and the concussion caused a painful injury to one limb He deems his escape from broken bones as almost miraculous.
 The Old Dominion Copper Company have been seriously hindered in their work through the non-arrival of the coke caused by heavy roads and high water in the Gila at San Carlos Smelling was re- stunned on Tuesday, after a few days idle ness and further brief suspension may be necessary.
 Two wagons loaded with copper were turned over in the GiIa river at San Car los on Wednesday, and the water was SC high yesterday as to completely cover them.
 W. c. Haverly has taken the contract from the Buffalo Mining Company fol hauling ore to the shelter. It could not have been given into better hands.
