A BREAKING DAM.

One Coos Out In Arizona and Scatters
Death lsroadcast.
The fine large storage dam built at
Prescott, Ariz., across the Hassayampa
river by the Walnut Grove Dam Storage
company two years ago at q cost Of $780,
600, gave way under pressure Of heavy
food and swept everything before it. Forty
persons are known to have lost their lives.
The service Of the dam company, located
fifteen miles below the reservoirs, and
fifteen miles Of dume just approaching
completion, were also swept away.
The company has spent over $SOO,OO
on the enterprise Of steering water for hy-
draulic mining. Machinery had arrived
and they expected to commence operations
soon. The dam which held the waters
back was ITO feet long at the base and 400
at the top and was 40 feet thick at the
base and 10 feet at the top, forming q lake
three miles in length by three -fourths Of q
mile wide and ll0 feet deep.
Lieut.. Brodie, in charge Of the work,
was absent at Phenix superintending The
shipment of machinery to the works and
was saved. OF those known to be drowned

An Indiana Judge Who Possesses Both In
sn Admirable Degree.
The most prominent families OF Wayne
township, near indianapolis, Ind, have
been deeply interested in the outcome Of .
divorce suit between W. M. Calvert and
his wife, the latter prepossessing little
woman, who had the sympathy of all her
neighbors. The husbands complaint
charged her with an act in violation Of her
marital VOWS, and in her answer she ad-
mitted her guilt, but charged cruelty upon
the part Of her husband. On tho witness
stand she Was a. disingenuous a. child,
and it was evident that the courts sympa-
thy was keenly excited. An effort was
made to reconcile the parties, but tho hus-
band sternly refused to have anything to
do with his trembling wife. Thus forced
to make ruling, the court said:
If she erred he has been much to blame
himself. He left her alone and unpro-
tected. She had done what I never
knew to be done before-shs
confessed her single mistake-aud did
not come into this court and add
perjury to her sin. You can not tell me
she is bad woman. will not believe it,;
and the records of this court shall not con-
denim her. She shall not return to her
friends with . brand upon her. I shall not
give divorce either on the complaint OF
the plaintiff or the cross complaint Of tho
defendant. I shall enter decree dissolv.
Ing the marriage, and 30 the records shall
show"
Turning to the only chilli Of the parties,
the court asked whom it preferred to live
with. Mamma, lisped the little one, and
ths court entered an order making it ward
OF tho court till OF age and giving the
mother its custody. He then ordered CAL
vert to pay the mother $4,000. Everybody
was astonished At the outcome, and q
deathlike stiffness prevailed through the
court room during the delivery OF the
judgment.

BRITISH GOLD.

1t Is Said to Have Captured the Great Chi
cago Stock Yards.
A morning paper says that the Union
stock yards Of Chicago, the largest in the
world, will doubtless be sold to an English
syndicate. The price Of this enormous
plant is $50, ,00o, 600, and number Of rich
Englishmen are ready to exchange that
sum for controlling interest. 1t is un-
derstood that the negotiations have passed
beyond the stage of discussion. Reliable
information warrants the statement that
the contract for the transaction has been
signed.
George 1. Williams, treasurer aud secre-
tary Of the company, when spoken to on
the alleged pending negotiation and sale,
said:

viding for preliminary work for irrigation
Of the arid lands Of the west. It contem-

local government similar to county
government, enabling settlers in
ach to control their affairs subject only to
the United States laws. There are also
provisions for the corporation OF the city
authorities with the district officers. An
objection TO one feature of the bill Is that
the basin districts would not be confined to
ono state and one district may be composed
OF parts OF two states. This point is de-
laying the report on the bill. Il further
provides that settlers may obtain their land
by homesteads, retain ownership Of waters
within their districts. levy tax, mort
gage their land to companies who shall
furnish money for irrigation and do oil
other things that may be necessary in con-
nection with fertilization. The bill will
provide that after . certain number Of
years during which the irrigation company
shall be paid for it's surveys, its rights shall
cease, and reservoirs, canals and other
works pass into the hands and become the
property Of settlers themselves. Federal
government simply designates reservoirs,
creeks and irrigatable lands and authorizes
the construction OF canals and reservoirs.
No settler can acquire more than eighty
acres Of irrigatabls land, while mining
land, coal lands and town sites are to be
obtained under provisions of the existing
law

A Panama Butchery.

A most dastardly and revolving crime
was perpetrated at the village Of Charme
on the coast of the bay of Panama. Two
French gentlemen who started planta-
ton there not long ago were found one
morning in their house with their heads
completely severed from their bodies. On
search being made 1t Was founl that the
sum Of $1,000 in silver, which had been
drawn BY one Of the partners from bank
in Panama few days before, and all their
jewelry and other personal valuables had
disappeared. Suspicion fell immediately
on the two laborers employed BY them to
work the plantation, as on inquiry IL was
discovered that they had decsmped. The
authorities here at once instituted vigor-
ous search for the fugitives, which has re-
suited in their capture.
