Mrs. Dee,s Death.

Coroner Brackner has decided to hold
tomorrow evening instead of Friday
evening the inquest into the death of
Mrs Margaret Dee, who died suddenly
last evening at her home, No. 6S Ever
green street, Bayonne. 1t is alleged that
Just before the woman's death
her husband returned home to
find that she had been drinking deep
ly. When she approached him in
maudlin manner he became disgusted
and showed her aside. She was so drunk
that she fell heavily to the floor. AS she
did not get up Michael went to her aid
and discovered that she was dead.
None of Dee's neighbors believe
that he intentionally harmed
mis- wife. He is an old resident of Bay
onne, and is an industrious, temperate
and inoffensive man. The woman was
forty years old, and her dissipated habits
had caused Dee much trouble. The au-
topsy held by County Physician Con-
verse showed that save her lungs all her
organs were diseased

GERMAN IN HOBOKEN.
People Pleased with the Action of
the Board of Education.

At the meeting of the Hoboken Board
OF Education on Monday night Trustee
Russ offered the following
Resolved, That the Committee on
Teachers Salaries and School Govern
ment be directed to report at the next
meeting as to the desirability of increas-
ing the force of teachers Of German so as
to perfect the efficiency of the teaching OF
the German language" The resolution
was unanimously carried.
The action of the Board is praised high
ly by the citizens. The teaching of the
German language under the present sys-
tenn Is worse than useless. The only Ger
man scholars who are graduated from
the public schools are those Of German
the schools is assisted by the converse
ton at home
There are two teachers of the German
language at present. They are Prof. A.
Peer and Miss Guth. The teachers have
to make the rounds of five schools, also
the three higher classes of the grammar
department and also in each of the classes
of the High School. An average of six
minutes per day is allowed for the study,
or about thirty-hve minutes every week.
1t will thus be seen that under the pres
ent system for the scholar to obtain a
thorough and complete knowledge of the
language is out of the question.
The teachers are all that could be de-
sired and did their duty well, but they
had too much ground to cover and as q
consequences the teaching had degener-
ated into farce. In some classes the
German lesson time was looked forward
to as sort of recess and great many
pupils did not take any interest whatever
in the study. The scholars who were dis
posed to learn found that in the limited
time devoted to the study they could not
become proficient
1t remained for the Board of Education
to either abolish the teaching of German
in the schools altogether or to provide ex-
ira facilities for teaching, and they have
done the latter, which has vastly pleased
the people, particularly the Germans.

RiOt in West Virginia.

Wheeling (W. Va.), July 10- Dispatches from Bramwell, Moor county, says there is great excite nent throughout the mining region, growing out of a riot occurring on the night of July 9th on the line of the Blue Stone branch of the Norwalk and Western Railway, and that further trouble may occur at any time.
 It seems that several hundred ne groes made an excursion over the road, and there was a good deal of liquor on board the train. A num- Der Of fights occurred, When a few miles from BramWell three or four negroes attempted to cut a white mans throat, and Detective w. G. Baldwin and three of his men, who were on the ears, attempt ed to protect the man.
 They were at once attacked by about thirty drunken negroes, who broke the car seats in fragments and used the pieces as clubs.
 Lights were knt c1ed out and a terrible conflict ensued, during which nine negroes were disabled.
 ". G. Baldwin was stabbed in the left side, hit on the head with a fragment of iron and terribly cut. His wounds are serious. Detective

Storing Water.

The task of impounding water on Lynx Creek, 9 miles east ot Prescott, has been tackled by MT Pedley and others and will,it said, be pushed. The storage works, etc. will be on Bigelow Flat, q short distance south of the old Mexican camp of 1864, in which year gravel of gulches in that vicinity paid as much as an ounce of gold to the pan, or bateauX, of gravel. Tie creek bed was also rich in gold Farther down Lynx creek are great beds of auriferous gravel. To wash this gravel and to irrigate rich lands of Lonesome and Agua Fria valleys are the purpose of the company That it will make good, stout dams goes without saying. Lynx Creek and it's tributaries furnish abun- dance of water and it could not be put to better uses. A large reser- yoir, when kept filled with water, will employ hundreds of miners and make at least 50 good farms. Prescott Courier.

These are Armenia paupers of the region, returned to this country at the ex- pense of the Pennsylvania churches who are preparing a return in the autumn again to test the infinite folly of Americans. They enter tain the most sovereign contempt for any law of Congress, and as an infinite shame the examination at New York once. passed by them.

Killing at PinOS Altos.

Edward Fountain, son of Col. A. J. Fountain, of Las Cruces, was shot at Pinos Altos on the morning of the 9th instant, about 2 o'clock by a certain woman named Lucy Small. The ball entered the abdo- men a little to the right side. The deceased lived until ten o'clock of that day. There are contradictory statements as to the cause of the killing. As near as we can get at it, the deceased was at the Woman's house, where he was boarding. No prior trouble or difficulty was known to have come up between them. She runs a boarding house, and her contention is that the de- ceased was making noise on the outside, abusing her, calling her bad names, etc. She says he was under the influence of liquor, and she tried to coax him to keep quiet. She finally fired, so she states, for the purpose of soaring him, and had no intention of shooting him. She did not know that she had shot him until after daylight that morn ing. This is the woman's S a.e- ment.-Silver City Sentinel.

WE are informed that there Is proposition before the Board from the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad Company to compromise their tax cases on the same basis as it has compromised with Yavapai and Mohave counties. Whether they have accepted the proposition or not. we have not been informed. Public opinion in the county, ap- pears to be divided on the question, as the Board has received petitions both for and against a compromise. The HERALD has, heretofore, op- posed any compromise in this mat ter, but since Yavapai and Mohave have drawn out of the fight, it is of the opinion that compromise on fair grounds should be accepted by this county. It is not just or right to tax the people of this county to carry on fight for the next six or eight years, which will result, in case the county gains it, in as much good to the two counties named as it will to Apache. Had Yavapai and Mohave stood firm and contin- ued their fight with the Railroad Company for its taxes, the HERALD and nine-tenths of the people of this county would have opposed any compromise, and would have been in favor of fighting the case to a final decision, but to do so alone and unsupported is, we think, asking too much of our people.

THE Board of Supervisors nave passed an order calling for a vote at the next general election on the county seat question. Our friends in Holbrook would never have rest ed easy in their graves, if they had been unable to have had the people of the county vote on this matter.
 It is now before the people, and we trust the fight will be good natured and on its merits, and that none of that bitterness of feeling which almost invariably grows out of such
 a contest, will develop in this cOun- ty. Let the people go quietly to the polls and cast their ballots for the place of their choice, without that bitter wrangling which usually prevails in such elections, and when the choice is made, we trust those who are disappointed at the result, will accept the situation gracefully.

Belknap's orders were to take Mir. Hurd, the newly appointed United States Minister to Corea, in his flag ship, the Swatara, and to cooper ate with him in that country in up holding the rights and interests of American subjects. It is not be- lieved at the Department that he has interfered in the troubles be- tween England and Russia further than to establish his forces in the neighborhood of the American con sulate at Seoul for its protection in case of necessity.

Two Murders.

Denver, July GA Folsom, NM, speclal to the News says that about IS o'clock this morning ". H. Riley, the operator of the Denver and Fort Worth railway, stepped into a saloon to transact some business with the proprietor. He was cov- cred by a revolver in the hands of Charles Ellis Riley grabbed the man and tried to prevent his shoot ing, but Ellis, being the stronger of the two, got Riley's head under his arm placed the revolver back of the boy's neck and fired. The ball pass ed near the jugular vein into the left lung and near the heart, com ing out on the left side. Riley is but IS years old and a quiet, inof- fensive boy, while Ellis is a disreputable cowboy. He is con- sidered one of the toughest charac- ters in the country. He is under arrest and if the boy dies he will probably be lynched.
 A Las Vegas special to the News says a murder was committed in that city some time last night. J. N. Stutsman, an inoffensve old man and a tailor by trade, who had been working in different tailorships in city for the past six or seven years, years, was the victim. His body was found about a mile west of town this afternoon, it having evidently been dragged there after he was killed. His throat was cut and his face skinned, evidently to prevent lndentifcation. He had nothing on but a pair of drawers. Nothing is known at this time as to the cause that led to the killing or who the murderer is.
