The Public Library.

The Flagstaff Public Library is one of the public institutions in which every resident of the place takes a deep interest, and every effort made in behalf of that enterprise is responded to liberally by our citizens In its new quarters the library is more con venient on the part of the public who patronize it. Many young men now spend their spare time in the reading room, perusing the newspapers peri odicals, and books to which they have free access. Free stationary is also furnished to all who desire to use it in the rooms. This is boon which scores of young men fully appreciate. The Library Association desire to make the reading room still more attractive and useful and wish to place the libra ry donated by Major D. NJ. Riordan in the room To this there is some ex- pense, as it is necessary to have ad ditiOnal bookcases and more chairs for the accommodation of visitors, and fuel and light to keep the room open during the long winter evenings The friends of the Library Association have concluded to give vocal and instru- mental concert on Wednesday evening December 9th at Powell's Opera House the entire proceeds to go towards the library fund.
 The leading local musicians will ap- pear at this concert and delightful evening is promised to those who at- tend, and at the same time they will have the high satisfaction of aiding one of the most worthy institutions of our town.

tuSick EscapeS.

Cusick, who was confined in jail at this place on charge of robbing freight cars at Williams over year ago, and who, after long chase, was finally caught in Omaha by an A. x P. detective and returned here for trial, made his escape Tuesday night Depu- ties Spencer and Clark were in charge of the prisoners and about eight o'clock Cusick asked permission to go into the iail yard. He was allowed to do so. He was shackled and the deputies had no thought of his escape. After a lapse of perhaps ten minutes, the pris- oner not returning, the yard was searched, resulting in the finding of the shackles, but the wearer of the irons was no where to be found. AL though the officers commenced imme- diate search, no trace of Cusick has vet been found Sheriff Francis is east looking for him and other officials are west. It seems almost impossible that he should not be recaptured within a few days. The new jail will be com pleted within thirty days, and it will be almost impossible for prisoner to vat away

METEOR OR VOLCANO.
Which Was it That Made the Coon
 Mountain Crater.

Mountain Crater.
 On last Friday Messrs. G. K. Gill bert and Marcus Baker of the geologi- cal survey, returned from their trip to Coon Mountain crater, where they have been to investigate that interest ing phenomena.
 The crater stands on q plateau above the surrounding country about 150 feet and is known as Coon Mountain. The crater is 625 feet deep and five eighths of a mile across and two and one-eighth miles in circumference.
 There are thousands of craters within a distance of twenty-five miles around Flagstaff, and every one but the Coon Mountain crater show plainly their origin.
 While there is no evidence of vol canic action there has evidently been an eruption here as rock have been blown from the bottom to the top, and enough of it to make a mountain l50 feet high. Two theories are advanced by the investigators in regard to the formation. One is that an enormous meteor struck this point and was driven into the earth seven or eight hundred feet and that escaping gas and steam caused an explosion which made the hole. The other theory is that it was caused by volcanic action and that the earth underneath became filled with gas and steam and that an explosion took place at this point.
 Volcanic iron or meteoric iron has been found near the crater but only in one direction, to the south and east. Some of the pieces were large and weighed from $50 pounds down to two ounces, 5000 pieces in all having been found.
 Mir. Gilbert and party made Il map and a survey of the region around the crater, The report of MT. Gilbert to his department will be interesting to scientists as well as to the public gen erally. A trip was made to the vol canic region northeast of this place and a search made among the craters for the purpose of finding one similar to Coon Mountain but none was dis covered. Messrs. Gilbert and Baker left Saturday for Washington delighted with the trip and the result of their investigation in this vicinity.

Govern or Irwins Visit.

On Wednesday afternoon Governor John N. Irwin accompanied by his wife and boy arrived in Flagstaff. While the visit of this distinguished parsonage was not tentirely unexpected his coming was known but few mo- ments before the arrival of the train. He was taken to the Bank Hotel where during the evening he made the ac- quaintance of the members of the Board of Trade, and this morning he was shown the sights of the skylight city"
 The Governor is on his way to Pho- nix from Prescott, and has many good words to say of Northern Arizona, which he visits for the first time, and we believe that Gov. Irwin is the first Arizona governor who has made an effort to get acquainted with the citi- zens of the Territory outside of the Capital City.
 Governor Irwin is q quiet, unassum- ing agreeable gentleman and favor ably impressed those who met him while here.
 The Governor and family left on the train tbis afternoon for Phenix via Albuquerque.
