Did Not Die In a Tent, but Was Sur
 rounded by Every Comfort.
 Col. F. c. Hatch returned to the city yesterday morning from ten days trip in the Bradshaw mountains, during which time he visited the famous Con- gress mine.
 'I see you published special dis patch to the Chronicle this morning, in which it says Diamond Joe Reynolds died in a tent on one of his mining claims in Arizona and again that "a messenger was hurried off for physi- cian.' Both these statements in the dis. patch are erroneous. There isn't an- other mining camp in the country better fitted up than the one at the Congress mine. All the buildings are frame, and the room in which MT. Reynolds died was as we'll furnished as any hotel room in the Southwest.
 "A physician, Dr. Vickers, is em- ployed regularly at the mine, and he was constant in his attendance on Mir. Reynolds, and besides him Superintend- ent Frank Murphy, a great favorite of Mir. Reynolds, MT. Church and Mir. Bartlett administered to his every want. A messenger was dispatched for law yer, but not for doctor, as none other than Dr. Vickers was needed.
 "The entire camp is lighted with electric lights, and most of the story of MT. Reynolds death taken from the Chronicle must have originated in the brain of its Chicago correspondent"

An Eloquent Member Who Did Not Tell
 Which Side He Favored. From the Lordsburg Liberal
 The Arizona Legislature has ad- iourned. The Liberal commented un- favorably upon the New Mexico solons because they used interpreters. Colonel Egan tells the story of a speech of an Arizona legislator which seems to indi- cate interpreters were needed at Phe- nix.
 When the Miles county bill was be- fore the committee certain honorable man, whose name had escaped the Col onePs memory, who had been elected pledged against any county division, ap- peared before the committee and made a long and eloquent speech about Miles county. After he had completed his ad- dress and resumed his seat the chair man of the committee turned to him and said: "My dear sir, your speech was a very fine one and very convincing, but as matter of curiosity l would like to know if it was in favor of or against the bill" The legislator turned his head as he slid out of the door and calculated {: For it, of course."

 McLane was bright boy and through some family influence obtained an ap- pointment as cadet at the Military Academy at West Point The Govern ment had undertaken the expense of his board, clothing and education-the stars of major-general were within the pos abilities; but on account of some esca- pade he was expelled from the academy with the stigma of his deserts as badge to wear through life. He abandoned the ranks of civilization and lived for while among the Yuma Indians on the Colo rado river, but afterwards came to the Santa Cruz, where he associated with the Mexicans and tame Apaches, acting as an interpreter and scout, gathering to himself harem of squaws. In his sojourn on the Colorado river he was given the sobriquet of "Yuma" and was scarcely known by any other name, and had adopted the breech clout and mecca sins as savage costume and fed upon pachita.
 On the west of the Santa Cruz the Babaquivera range of mountains formed the boundary between the Papagos and the Apaches, and it was death to an Apache to venture beyond the natural wall of division.
 The Papagos are branch of the great Pima tribe, which formerly occupied the country between the Gia river and the Rio Sonora, but upon the advent of the Spanish missionaries that portion of the Pimas who adopted the customs of civil ization- cut their hair and wore hats were called bapconia or christianized Indians and attended the missions of the Jesuits along the Santa Cruz and in Sonora, the most noted of which is the old mission of San Xavier del Bac, three leagues south of the ancient and honor able pueblo of Tucson.
 Yuma had gathered considerable per sonal property, consisting of horses, donkeys, arms and squaws, and, in an evil day for him, yentured beyond the Babaquivera range with his household of Apache squaws.
 This was against all and every rule of the Papago tribe, as the Apache sQuaws might be spies, or they might escape and convey information to the Apaches ol tne WneTedOOuts oi tne IdpdSOs ldG cattle, and encourage raid into the peaceful settlements; so the Papago warriors organized a "Mafia" society, and condemned Yuma to death.
 The Pimas and Papagos have many Jewish customs-where they came from God only knows, and among these IS stoning to death, instead of the other modes of execution, so they gathered around Mir. Yuma and stoned him to death.
 His personal property probably made a repast for the public administrator, and the squaws came to live in the suburbs of Tucson.
 Very few West Point cadets contem- plate such an inglorious Termination of life; but the descent into Arernus is easy. c. D. F.

An Undaunted Rancher Writes of the
 General Destruction.
 The following is an excerpt from let ter recently received by Statistical Agent Poston from cheerful farmer at Charm ingdale, Yavapai county:
 "A few words concerning the changed condition of the agricultural outlook in my vicinity in consequence of the un- precsedented floods of February 16, IS and 22 may not be out of place.
 "Every farm on our Walnut creek was more or less damaged and some entirely ruined. Some have dropped the blow and hoe and will not even take advantage of what they have left, will not repair their ditches or farms. The damage done to my place was more than $500. Several acres of good land was broken from the banks and my stone cellar and my dwelling came near going into the raging torrent, but the water com menced receding just in time, so that by the unusual energy of my hired man and myself hauling over 100 tons of rock and riprapping the bank, all is now safe and in better condition than before. In one Wtek HlOIc l VIII HdNt tue WdteT iH my ditch and try to drive a crop to ma turity, ready for prospective profitable market, summer and fall.
 "Other parts of our county have suffered more than we have on Walnut creek. The Verde river settlements, consisting of the Upper Verde, Middle Verde and Lower Verde, the aggregate of which is about 50 per cent of the pro- ducing portion of our county, have sus- tained the loss of all their ditches and much valuable land and improvements.
 "For my part 1 intend to utilize the great sand bar now covering large part of my meadow land to the depth of at least two feet, by planting the entire area in melons. Come up and help market few the latter part of summer.

A PUZZLED MUGWUMP.

An editor of the mugwump variety in
Boston is puzzled over a statement of
the Jtelrnal to the effect that after the
sugar bounties are paid the people will
have saved something like $4,000, 900
by the free-sugar provision of the Nc
Kinley law. and remarks:
The indianapolis Journal says that they
save $4,000. 900 by the operation, but un-
less our Indianapolis contemporary sup
poses that the go. O00. 900 that went into the
United States treasury was absolutely
squandered, it must be aware that this
represented the money contributed by the
peOplo to the support OF their government.
They have not saved this money unless 1t
had been previously stolen or squandered.
and as most of it was probably employed
in the pay ment of the national debt, eth
er of these two conclusions could very well
be affirmed.
In the center of the Republic, where
the high-pressure culture which devotes
itself TO the investigation of the which
ness of the whereas has not prevailed,
the average human being clings with
stubborn tenacity to the idea that what
he escapes paying out as taxes, this year,
less than he paid out for that purpose
last year, is saved. When he goes to
market, this year, and gets as much
sugar for 66 cents as he got last year for
100 cents, you cannot beat the idea out
of his head that the other "a cents in his
pocket has been saved to him, to be used
for some other purpose or to add to his
available assets. 1t is no difference to
him who got the other 81 cents when the
duty was gig cents pound on sugar.
He did not have it as his own, and some-
body else did. As to the government,
he remembers that the mugwumps and
other Democrats had been complaining
for years that at least S6O,OOO,0OO more
a year was being extorted from the peO-
pie as taxes than was needed. There
fore he concludes that if such amour
is taken from the aggregate of taxes coll
lecred and left among the people in the
shape of the 2i2 cents pound they have
been paying to the treasury on sugar,
1t is saved to each one of them in pro-
portion as he is purchaser of sugar.
Among the plain people this fact is no
puzzler, and yet few of them could pass
an examination that would admit them
to primary place in Browning class.
When. however. it comes to a question
of having and not having money, the
Westerner is able to hold his own.
And now that we are speaking of
money paid as taxes as money saved, if
the puzzled mugwump of the Boston
Herald will come this way few weeks.
and travel up and down Indiana and
listen to the racket which tax payers
are making over the Democratic tax law,
which has doubled State taxes, he will
return TO his home with very positive
recollections of the accomplishments of
