"Nlgger" Suicides.

Last Thurday morning when Sheriff Lake unlocked the outer door of the jail he was mortified to see the inanimate body of Nigger, the Wallapai Indian who murdered his squaw short time ago, hanging suspended by the neck from the latticed grating of tEe corridor. A small rope, such as is usually used for a clothes line, had been careful ly doubled and cloth wound around it for eight inches of it's length and this part was placed around the suicides neck, it ap- pears, and the other end of the rope was passed around bar of grating near the top ofthe cell. After tying handkerchief over his face he climbed up the iron latticework drew the rope tightand made it fast and then the determined redlnan stepped off into space. His feet were almost t1uching the floor, and should he have desired to lengthen his days on earth he couldhave raised himself up and removed the rope from his neck. His features, when cut down were calm and composed, more like q man in deep sleep than one who had crossed the great divide. A coroner's jury was summoned and after viewing the body and hearing the evidence rendered a verdict in accordance with the above facts. The Indians, who are a supersti- tious race, say that the ghost of the murdered squaw has haunted the man since the crime was committed and that he wanted to die. The body was turned over to his Indian relatives and buried in a lonely spot in the mountains to the north of Kingman, where the cactus will bloom and the coyote howl 8 wild requiem over his last resting place. -Mohave Miner.

One Gentleman, on turning in" Sunday night, allowed an acquain- tance named "Red" to share his blankets. Bendleman had over $500 in his pockets and on awaken ing missed his sleeping companion and also his cash. Like sensible man he reported at once to the sheriff, and as a consequence Mir. "Red"was arrested at Tempe. Only about $20 was found on him, but it seems he offered the deputy who arrested him to "whack up" $500 if said deputy would take him to the place he had buried it then let him go free. "Red" will be placed in durance vile.-Republican.

GLADSTONE maI5 a speech recent ly at Newcastle, in which, speaking of the question of free trade, he said: Our children and kinsmen in America to whom we have look ed and might still lcok to teach us many useful legislative lessons, have set us in this matter the ex- ample of d retrogade nation. They have thought for moment--though 1 believe only for the moment-that the secret of prosperity was to be found in the fixing by the govern ment the channels in which enter prise should run and the forms in which ingenuity should be exer- cised."

What We Would Get.

The Gazette publishes the follow ing in the interest of statehood, il Arizona were State. She would get 4,615,46 acres of land, which rated at even S1 per acre, would wipe out our territorial debt and leave cash balance of S3,750,46O to the credit of Arizona, because q the territorial debt is only $355, ,000 The list of public lands that Arizo- ma would get, if she were a state, is as follows.
 ''16 and 36 sections ripen in little and equal 4,027, ,3SO.
 For public buildings,50 sections, 32,000, acres.
 "For University lands, 72 sections 46,0S0, acres.
 State prison and asylum.-
 Agricultural college, 90,000 acres.
 School and mines, 10000, acres.
 University building, 10000, acres.
 Deaf and dumb asylum 10000 acres.
 State normal school 80O0O acres.
 Additional public buildings 50,- 000 acres.
 General purpose as the legislature may declare, 10000 acres.
 Making total gain in absolute grant of acreage, of 4.615, ,430 acres.
 Also in addition to this, Arizo- ma will. if treated as other new states, get ) per cent, of all sales hy- the government of the public lands sold in Ariznna, to say nothing of the probability of the entire public domain in her borders being ceded to her as was the case with the pub lie land in Washington Wyoming and the two Dakotas. Let's vote for statehood and get out of debt, at the same time secure independence and home rule"

Cox's nose was short stop for a stray boxing glove. Dan dodged the fiddle-bow, which carromed on the stove, while the big rubber football was as un. easy as bee in bottle.

The Texas Siftings is authority for the statement that statistical divine has figured that it costs $6,- 100000 to convert each and every individual heathen and remarks that, "St. Paul, in one of his liter ary efforts to the Romans, says 'Ys were boughtwith great price, but 1t would have made his eyes protrude like the optics of sand crab to learn that 1t would cost S6,- 000, ,000 to loosen the grip of Satan on an ordinary Feejee Islander. For the price paid for one unsavory South Sea Islander 8 great deal of good might be accomplished right here at home, and much real suffer ing be relieved. We do not think that the white heather should be ignored merely because he is white and lives in this country"

New Mexico wants statehood and she wants it bad. The Silver City Enterprise says:
 Give us statehood and the will Iainous alien law which has so long hung as pail over the fair territo- ry of New Mexico will be wiped out, and our country prosper as it did seven and eight years ago. The repeal of that one law will be worth untold millions to thls territory. With statehood We will not be com pelled to beg for petty appropria- tions for storage reservoirs, We can demand our rights. and receive them too, and soon our broad val leys will be one vast garden of fruit and grain, Let the citizens of New Mexico get together in this matter, and work for the good of the coun- try.

Gov. Murphy has d good shaped head and it's contents are A. 1. His recommendations in his annual re- port are broad minded and timely. Among them are, that Arizona may be admitted into the Union as q state upon the adoption of proper constitution by the people that all public lands within her borders be ceded by the government to the ter. ritory or state ;that all public lands be surveyed, that the school lands he made available. that the Alp plche Indians be disarmed and prohibit ed from using arms, that mineral lands in the San Carlos reservation be opened to occupancy and devel- opment ny white citizens and that public sale be held of them in trust for the IndIanS.-Prospector.

A business argument brought for ward in favor of Arizona becoming state, is that if Uncle Sam is as liberal as he has been with other new commonwealths, he will give her 4,615 ,460 acres of land within her borders. Arizonans with. an eye to the main chance are figuring that if this land could he sold for $l an acre, it would wipe out the state debt and leave $3.750.460 to the credit of the good times fund, or something of that sort. This idea is, of course, very attractive but it is q long look ahead, ard what a time the Arizona legislature would have protecting that large surplus !-Lns Angeles Times,

Kansas City. oct. 17.-It is be- lieved that Rainmaker Melbourne has played trick on the signal ser vice observers, who are much mys- tfied over a rain which fell here yesterday morning. The indication for the past three days have been clear and warmer. At 6 o'clock there was not a cloud to be. seen anywhere. but at 6 30 it was pour ing down rain, with q heavy wind and thunder. At ' o'clock it was again clear and there was no depres- sions of the barometer. The obser- vers say that the rain was purely from local causes. Itis now assert ed the rain was due entirely to the efforts of Melbourne, the rainmaker who, it is alleged, has been working secretly here for the past three days and whose work was crowned with success.
