FINED WITH REGRET.
Judge Mills Imposes the Lowest Pos
sible Fine on Mrs. Gambler.

The horsewhipping case that occurred on
Saturday evening at the corner of AZ street
and Pennsylvania avenue made its appearance
in the Police Court this afternoon. Mrs.
Kate Gambler, who is said to have applied a
horsewhip to William T. Sweet, was charged
with an assault and Sweet with using profane
and indecent language, while William Gambler
was introduced into the case charged with max
ing threats of personal violence against Sweet.
Mrs. Gambler testified that Sweet used profane
language and insulted her, as has already been
told in The STAR.
Sweet said that he did not remember ever
having used any improper language before
Mrs. Gambler.
In the case against Gambler for threats Mr..
L. W. Shocks testified that he had heard Cam
der threaten to do Sweet up"
In the case against Mrs. Gambler for assault
Sweet testified that he was at an opening at
he was told that lady wanted to see him at
the door. He went out just in time to receive
a singing blow from a whip in the hands of
Mrs. Gambler, who remarked You insulted me.
and will get even with your
Mrs. Gambler did not deny it, but claimed
that the act was justified by the insults he had
used toward her. When Judge Mills came to
untanglo the maze of testimony he dismissed
the case against Mr.. Gambler. Sweet was also
acquitted on the charge of profanity. Judge
Mills said that when a woman resents an in
suit, although it is al infraction of the law, a
court should deal with her as leniently as pos
sible. Still she had committed an assault and
he would have to fine her, though he regretted
having to do it. Mrs. Gambler was fined 81.
A Small Boy and His Cigarette.
''Say, mister, give me a match, want to
light my cigarette" was the modest request OF
three-year-old Percy Harding, who was walk
ing through the Baltimore and Potomac depot
this morning unattended
'Where in the world did you get that ciga-
rette?" inquired policeman.
Il bought it," was the lost boys response.
The little fellow was along the platform
looking at the cars the same as though he was
paid inspector and to all questions asked him
his response was Eyes, SIR or mo, SIR"
He seemed perfectly at ease, even when the
policeman took him to police headquarters. II
was learned that he resided near LIST and b
streets and his father soon appeared and took
him home.

A Boys PerilOus Journey.

From the New York Times
Engineer Doyle Of the New Jersey Central
railroad entertained his friends yesterday with
the story of a remarkable trip made by a Long
Branch boy recently The lad WAS Eddie Greer
and his age is eleven. He was ambitious to see
Camp Albeit at Sea Girt while the soldiers
were there. He had no money for car fare,
and SO he climbed under the COW catcher and
clutching the iron spokes OF the pilot, he
waited for the train to start. At Asbury Park
he was discovered. His hands and face were
badly cut by the flying pebbles thrown up by
the train, and he was almost dead, but deter
mined to continue the journey the rest Of the
distance. He was rescued from his perilOus
position and sent home

A correspondent of the Fresno Exposition de-
scribes the gallant rescue from drowning of
Santa Cruz beauty, who, he explains bore
.'every evidence Of refinement and high breed

cue with the remark, "Gosh, thought was
goner." This recalls Coleridges anecdote of a
certain man Of lofty brow and intellectual and
impressive aspect who sat opposite him once at
q large dinner. Coleridge addressed all his
conversation during the dinner to this appar-
entity remarkable man, but without making the
slightest impression, for the man with the high

Queens Weather.

from the London Daily News.
''Queen's weather" may we'll be recognized
term in our language. The singularly happy
fortune of the queen with regard to the weather
in all her comings and goings has been remark
ably exemphAed ON two occasions in this week
OF almost incessant torrent. Her majesty was
favored at the Marlborough House garden party
when the signs had been so unpromising that an
Official notice had been issued of . possible
postponement of the fete. Yesterday, again, by
marked exception to the general experience Of
the week, queens weather prevailed long
enough TO allow . fair journey to the Isle Of
Wight In the evening, as if to make amends
for their temporary forbearance, the skies
opened their doodgates again and the rains were
OF almost tropical severity.
Mr.. Patrick Howard Of Belair, Md, drained
his fish pond to kill the turtles and cells that
preyed upon the fsh and found in it three
bushels Of gold fab he did not know were

Tombstone Prospector.


 Prof. Rockfellow, who was principal of the Tombstone school last year. is men toned as possible candidate for Probate Judge.
 The friends of F. N. Wolcott have about induced him to allow his name to come before the Republican convention for Probate Judge Mr. Wolcott's nomi- nation would be equivalent to an election on which ever ticket he ran.
 There is a strong probability that Sheriff Slaughter will be rendered the renomination for sheriff by the Democrat ic convention and it will be forced upon him. The people of both parties who own property in Cochise county feel 10th to part with his services.
 Bisbee is not pushing her claims for recognition, although West Howell will come close to suiting himself when his delegation is boiled in the convention West was treated very shabbily by his party two years ago, who knifed him un- mercifully at the polls and then wrote anonymous letters to him telling him oi | it. Bisbee puts her best men forward for office, and that is the reason she makes 6 losing fight.

He is warm personal friend of Christ and the latter is known to be friend when friendship IS needed.

STANTON, Sept. 4th. 1890.
 EDITOR ENrERPRIsE: Nothing worthy of note has transpired in this vicinity since you passed Us on your hpmeward bound trip. However, l will endeayor to give THE ENTERPRISE a few items in connection with the present, and prob able future, of this portion of Yavapai County. As you are well aware, the great wealth of this county consists prin- cipally ill its immense live stock interests and the many paying mines which are now being developed in different locali- ties; of which this portion of the great old Gavapai can lay claim to a fair propor- ton of the two aforesaid great benefits of almost endless industry.
 Just now. we of this camp, are much interested ill the outlook of our vast min eral resources, and our hopes are not based on visionary conclusions, and as proof of that assertion 1 can name many miners within radius of five miles from this place who are takingout first class gold and silver ores.
 A. L. Kerr, who is the owner of the ten stamp quartz mill at this place, Is now taking out large quantities of free milling ore from vein discovered by him self about three months ago; the ore is of Doi pil ulitl lllt itllilt DiNlH ltiL to make one of the busy camps of this part of the country.
 can also speak with encouragement for the future prospect of the two mines owned by Thos. E. Peery and others of this place; these two mines have been owned by different men within the past ten or fifteen years and the true merit of ! the two very valuable gold propositions 1 were not known until within the past l year. RObt. C. Beatie one of California s ] best experts and mine owners. is here making a thorough examination of these two valuable properties. and was SC thoroughly convinced of their real value that it did not take him long to ask the owners for a 12-months' bond on theil claims, which was agreed upon by all parties interested.
 There is also the Yarnell mine which i, situated at the summit of Antelope mountains, five miles north of this place which is said to be a very large body O rich ore. Mir. Yarnell bonded his prop erty for forty thousand dollars to Cali fornia men about six months ago anC does not seem 10 care whether they talk, it or not, as he is satisfied it can be cashet for more money in the near future
 In looking over the mining roll of thi locality l might make mention of man, other very valuable prospects, which
 1 will omit for the present, but will men ton in some future communication.
 From all that 1 can learn, our neighbo mining camp, (the Congress) is in promising condition and as in common , with it's history Of the past two years promises remunerative benefits to it owners unequalled by any other camp i our Territory. T. F.

ON Monday next the democratic terri torial convention will meet in Phenix and ratify the expressed will of the party by nominating Mark A. Smith as their can didate for Delegate to Congress. The issue will then be joined and during the next succeeding six weeks of political campaign the people will find themselves mirrored upon the partisan rostrum as angels or fends, according to their politi- cal complexions. When we read the re- publican platform of principles we natur ally infer, if it's statements be true, that all democrats are liars and horse thieves whose future abiding place should be within the strong mud walls of the peni- tentiary, and doubtless the democratic resolutions will reciprocate in equally becoming terms. If the independent public is to judge of the two parties from these complimentary expressions, neither are fit to be trusted with the management of public affairs. But there is very little difference in frai human nature, in what ever gaise it trains, and the main ob- ject sought is the possession of the offices that return fat emoluments for lean ser vices Therefore the voter who has the qualifications to do his own thinking and the courage to act upon his own conyic- tons. will exercise his constitutional priv ilege to cast his ballot for those he deems the most worthy of the favor and the most competent to perform the several duties required of them.

A FATAL DOSE,
Allen Campbell takes an overdose of
 Morphine which ends his life.
Flagstaff Democrat.

On Tuesday evening between the hours of II and 12 o'clock Allen Campbell, we'll known to the citizens Of our town was found in an unconscious condition in his room where he was lodging. Henry Slosson, who has been rooming with him, went home to retire at about Il o'clock, and seeing that this man Campbell was breathing hard and unnatural, Slosson atssonce tried to arouse him and find out what ailed him, and failing in this he i'm mediately notified other parties of the strange condition of Campbell, and Dr. Cornish was summoned but it was too late to render this unfortunate man any relief. Judge Gibson being notified sum moned jury to hold an inquest and in- quire into the cause of Campbells death. | There were four witnesses examined, and the evidence all in the verdict of the jury was, that the deceased came to his death by an overdose of morphine administered by himself, and that he was about 35 years of age and that he was native of the Province of Quebeck. 1t seems from l information that the deceased was affect 1 ed with rheumatism last winter and used more or less morphine to quiet his pain and that he had been during the evening of his death intoxicated to some extent and no doubt took the dose with no sui cidal intention. He was always joyia
 and showed no despondency on the day or evening, and it is generally believed that he had no intention whatever of taking his own life. He was liked by all who knew him, being the worst enemy to him self. His remains were inferred in tht town cemetery on Tuesday, followed thither by many friends, He leaves nC
 relations in this country.
