The prayer of Central Arizona that it may be exempt from the actions of the land court bill will probably be granted when that bill is finally passed; at any rate the House has agreed to leave Ari- zona out and this is as it should be. The people who have for years. been attempt ing to gobble everything in sight in the central part of the Territory are the men who have most diligently urged the land court bill that they might establish a claim which they have not up to the pres ent time, been able to do. There may be legal claims not yet settled, of this kind in the Territory, to which the land court bill would have been desirable, but the proposed steal of public lands is of greater importance to the government and the people than all the balance of the Territory.

Although the idea of getting water under Professor Heerdegen's magnetic location last summer has been practical ly abandoned, the Yuma Copper Con- pany is still boring there and had attained depth of 530 feet up to Friday last. The formation has changed to white colored rock and 1t Is expected that the Indian Boy or Black Bear ledge will be cut shortly. Thus, as prospecting proposition though not as a we'll, the ex- pense incurred may produce some re- turn.
 The company has decided to pipe water from some springs on the west side of the Harcuvar mountains, about half a mile below the summit. The copper mines are some F miles down the east ern slope, and, ill an air line, probably three miles distant from the springs. Four inch pipe will be laid around the noun tain, involving eight miles of piping, but thereby permitting gravity delivery of water. and avoiding all expense of engines and steam pumps.
 There Is an estimated volume of about four inches of water supplied the year round by these springs and there will con- sequently be no shortness of sup ply.
 Much satisfaction was expressed by the directors who recently visited their company's property. The developments on the mine, the ore in sight, the smelters and all appointments were approved and Superintendent Nicholson blushed mod estly at the well earned compliments be- slowed upon his effective manageme nt.

George Scott, of Dudleyville after many searches extending over the past decade, has at last found and located a very rich Host mine" not far from the San Carlos reservation. Its existence was made known to Geo. r. Cook, of Dudley vile, about sixteen years ago, by two prospectors who afterwards disappeared and never returned. They gave a minute Subscription of it's locality but up to MT. Seott's recent re-discovery no one was able to find it, although parties had frequently been within half mile of the ledge. It was found as described by the prospectors and is in the midst of tan gled thicket of almost impenetratable brush. The ledge is large and strong one, the ore being gray carbonates, assaying sixty-fve ounces in silver on the crop pings. Steps will at once be taken to prospect, what is believed to be an i'm mense mineral deposit.

A Cruelty Duned Husband.

John Williamson, farmer of Stsnbury Mo
lies dying in ST. Joseph, Mo. Three years ago he
married Alvira stsrks, II years old and daughter
of Colonel William Stsrks, of King City. For a
year, until after daughter was born, they lived
happily, but then Mrs. Williamson inaugursted
series OF protracted visits from her home. Six
weeks ago she left her husband and went to
St Joseph ostensby to visit Miss Cunningham.
Mr.. Wlllamson's suspicious grew, and Wednesday
he went to st. Joseph to see his wife. He met
NAH who told him that he was q detective and
offered to return the missing wife to her husband
for 81 600. Williamson had been drinking, and
paid half of the money, the balance to be paid
when he found his wife. The man brought him
to where she was living, and it was agreed that
when Mrs Williamson was in the cars bound for
home that the remaining $500 should be paid.
The couple boarded train. and when across the
bridge the simple husband handed over the money,
at her solicitation. On receiving it che handed
the 2-year-old baby to him, and arising from her
seat ran to the PLATFORM and jumped from the
rapidly moving train. Williamson followed suit,
backed, and Williamson found unconscious by the
track, the baby twenty feet away, crying Justify.
Nothing was seen of the womsn. Tho husband
was taken back to the city, whore broken srm
and fractured skull were found to be his injuries,
and he will probably die. The affair was con-
spiracy the police think, to obtain the mans
money. Mrs. Williamson knew of his coming,
and delegated her lover, a bartender named
Mason, to meet him and bleed him. Williamson
is so years old owns farm of 1000 acres, and is
said to be worth $50, 900. He was postmaster at
Stsnbury under Grant. Mrs. Williamson is q
blonde and is very pretty.

A Remarkable Case

Miss Mary Rebecca shipley, who on Wednesday
was arrested in Philadelphia on the charge OF
shopifting, an account OF which was published
in tho Gazette. was we'll known and highly re-
spected in Stanton. A letter from Staunton says.
The arrest of Miss Shipley has created the
greatest surprise here. She is a respected lady, a
church member and has fortune. She has given
as much as $1,000 at time to the Baltimore
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church
South She was born in Baltimore Of German
parents. When she WAS child her mother and
father separated and she was taken charge Of by
friends in the West. When she grew older these
friends took her to Baltimore and PUT her at the
firm of Armstrong, Gator & Co. to learn bonnet
in 1873 Major ]. W. Newton, tho
proprietor of dry goods and millinery store in
Stsunton. employed Miss Shipley as bonnet
trimmer. In 1875 her parents, who were getting
old, had come together again and were hunting
for their daughter. They traced her to Staunton.
She went to Baltimore to see them, and, strange
to say on the day she arrived there or the day
afterward, both Of tho old people died in few
hours of each other. Their fortune, amounting
to S35 600, fell to her. She is about forty years
of age, and has always been more less eccentric,
and her friends think her mind must have become
affected. A Staunton lawyer. now in Washington
has been seegrsphed to go to Philadelphia and
attend to her case

and rain storm ragged here Wednesday night.
The rain poured down all highland about l
o'clock several strong blasts of wind in rapid
succession severely tested the strength OF
every house in town and brought their oc
cupants out Of their beds. For several
mioutes it looked as though the town would
be blown away. The terrors of storm in
town covered by water to depth OF from 5
to 70 feet can be imagined. The Catholic
church was blown from its foundation and
considerably damaged. A negro church
was also blown from It's foundation. Three
or four residences were treated likewise
Yesterday morning dawned bright and
clear. The river has been falling all day
after rise of foot last night on account OF
the rain, and if it should continue to fall for
few days the outskirts of the overfloWed
districts along Crooked Bayou would be
sufficiently relieved for planting operations
to begin. The two government boats. H.
M. Graham and r. A. Speed have been
busy all day relieving the distressed people
on the opposite side of the river.

TIRE U. 8. HOUSE of Representatives yes
terday, by a vote of 129 to /, passed the bill
admitting the Territory of Idaho into
the Union as State. As $50 do not make
quorum of the body. the democrats, 1t is
stated, intend to appeal to the D. s. Su-
prems Court to decide whether the Speaker
has the right to make quorum by counting
members who do not vote. That congress
lonal democrats are not wise is,unfortunate-
ly for the country, too well known. but it is
hoped they are not such helpless slmpletons
as the statement referred to, If true,
would prove them to be. Such an appeal
woull hardly have been sustained If made
before the adoption of the rules of the House,
but after the democrats voted on the adop-
ton of those rules and thereby gave the re-
publicans the legal quorum requisite for the
adoption thereof, everything that may be
done In accordance with those rules s legal
and in order, and the court would dismiss
such an appeal as that referred to at once,
aud without the formality of even nominal
consideration.
