Rapid Work.
Tucson Star.

The Territorial Grand Jury was sm- panneled last Monday, examined into thirty two cases and found twenty-one indictments, and completed its work yesterday. The Court comphmented the Jury for the rapidity and completeness of its work. The compliment was well earned by the grand inquest of the Ter ritory.
 The foreman of the Jury. Thomas Hughes, stated that the jury took into consideration the fact that it cost the county S75 per day for the jury, and they worked hard and long hours to save the expense to the county. It is to be hoped that future grand iuries will take the late jury as an example to work by.

When postmasters are permitted to judge gf the character of matter that newspapers shajl publish it is about time to abolish this sbusy" indIyldnal The law never contemplated that a govern pent appointee should have supervision over the affairs of private parties.

Solid Argument.

c. S. Clark, of the Cochise delegation to the legislative assembly, will be a candi- date for speaker of the assembly. In placing him forward Cochise county lays claim to being the banner democratic county in the Territory, electing the entire five assemblymen on the democratic ticket, gave Mark Smith 200majority for congress and gave Judge Clark the highest vote of any candidate on the legislative ticket. Outside of this he is aptly qualified for the position. If all of these arguments fail to convince, then arguments lare no longer weapons of democratic warfare.

EtOM fOr Bower tn laor RHiIsbaild's
Estate.


Judge Grubb HpenIes Eaer ApplIcR-
tt0n fOr Bower tn laur RaIIsbaihd's
Estate.
at session OF orphans court, Saturday
morning, Judge Grubb, in long and
very elaborate opinion, denied the petit
tion OF Mrs. Mary McGrenra for her right
OF dover in the estate OF her husband,
Cornelius McGrenra.
The oRse was q most remarkable one.
Tho heirs resisted Mrs. Mc9renra's
claim on the ground that she had been
guilty OF adultery, which, under the laws
OF this Stale, works forfeiture of
dover. They proved, by living wit
nesses, including doctor and nurse who
had attended her professionally, that
during Cornelius McGrenra's life sho
was living with man named Andrews as
man and wife and thst she subsequently
Rsvs birth 60 a child. Records were also
shown, proving that she had this
child placed in Catholic orphan aHy-
lum. Mrs. McGrenra stoutly oombatted
these charges, but the proof is over
whelnaing.
Judge Grubb, in his opinion, reviewed
the evidences at length and held that it
oonclusively established the charge of
adultery. which therefore worked for
feiture OF her dover in Cornelius Nc
Grenra's estate.
Thomas Davis, Esq, of counsel for
Mrs. McGEsnra, gave notice Of an appeal
OF the case to the superior court.

NAPLES room was on the third floor of
the almshouss, and an attendant slept in
tine room with him. AT O'Clock Thursday
morning, while the attendant was asleep,
it IL supposed that his weak mind con-
ceived tho idea of escaping. He crawle6
out of the window, partly dressed, and
hung tc the sill by his hands, not think.
ing of tine great distance to the ground.
Then he let go and dropped to the
ground.
About o'ol3ok when the inmates be-
gan to awake and stir around his body

carried into the house and Superintend-
ent Guthrie came to the 0ity Thursday
morning and notified the coroner. A
verdict of death from the accident was
rendered.

A FoRGISG LAWRER.
He Even Beats she Questionable
SexcnninI League.


PHILADELPHIA, Aept. l3.--Warrants have
besn issued Tor t64 arrest of Franklin ).
Dickson, n young lawyer whose Ci1ce is
No. blS In the 9lrRrd Building, on the
charge OF forserY and having swlndled the
he&ennlal Langao out OF about $4,000; by
means Of bogus deeds. Although tha de-
tectives havs beon after hlsN since Wednes-
day last they nave SO far been unable to
hnd him, and /. is believed tnat he has left
the city.
Dieksoa's s1indling operations extend
over the past 16 montns, and although the
amount Of his plunder, SO lar as Is known
at present, will NOT exceed $4,000, hts sJs-
ten Of forgery and swlldllng is one OF this
boldest that has eyor been brought TO light
IN this city.
In many cases Dickson brought business
to the Sexennial League and Ia almost
every cnEe prepared the papers. Through
him the board OF trustees loaned money Ia
quite humber of cases, taking as security
mortgages furnished By Mr.. Dickson.
About month ago the cffleers OF the
SexennlRl League, OF which Walter ID. Rey-
nolds, whose office Is at 1898 Chestnut
street, is the president, resolved to change
their whole spstem OF making Investment
and applied TO their attorney, Peter Boyd,
whose office is al 72S Wainnr street, TO
formulate new plan Of iEyes nent for the
League. A new system was dSrsed upon
ana II was determined to pace all their
investing capital In q trust company.
Before this could be done it was neces-
sary that all the securities held by the
board OF trustees should be turned over to
Mr.. Boyd for examination and they were
accordingly delivered 10 him last Monday.
Up to this time there was no suspicion on
the part OF the officers OF the League that
any Of the securities held by them were
anything but gilt edged. Upon making ar
examination Of tue papers Lawyer BOYD
discovered that among them wafe severa
forgeries. In each case the name OF the Re
corder OF Deeds, George q. Plerie, mad peer
forged TO a certificate.
The Land Title a4i trust Company's
searches against tine property we're also
found to be forged and in at least one In
stance notary public's certificate had
been forged. On going further and look
ing up the deeds which the League held as
security for Investments made through
Lawyer Dickson they were found to be
LOCUS and utterly worthless.

lected by the Republicans was said. On the
contrary, iD our news columns the day he

to say about them Was cheerfuily said.
Tie fact remained, however, and still re-

no matter how conversant with the poll

took place at Lynch's, Kent county, on Fri
day. MIR. James q. sutton, respectable
citizen OF about 60, was, 1t is said, as.
saulted by Mr. Foard, grain buyer of
the village, and Sutton, who was emitting
piecs OF wood at the time OF the assault,
made lunee with the knife at Foari's
stomach, cutting him to the depth of
about two inches. Foard YVES also out
in the side, breast and sars. Mr.. Peter
White, who tried to separate them, was
cut on the wrist. The proyocatiou
assigned by Mr.. Foard for the assault
was that Mr.. sutton had whipped lis
child without cause. Sheriff Comegys
was notified on Saturday, but says as
both of them are in beditis not necessary
to hurry arrests. Mr.. Foard il very badly
hurt. Both parties are we'll known.
