How 1t Happened.

The society editor of the PRosPEcroR was found dead in his bed this morn ing. All that was found upon his person was the fourth, fifth and sixth pages of report of the entertainment given at Schieffelin hall last Saturday night, which was so abruptly termin- ated in yesterdays issue.
 "The event which called forth much applause was an impromptu recitation by little Dora Cohn who made her debut with an air of self reliance sel. dom seen in one SO young.
 "The Hennessy brothers, Dan and Michael, acted the respective roles of Brutus and Cassius. They were robed in the costumes of the ancient Rom ans and their acting was pleasing surprise to those who had not seen them before on the stage, and brought forth earnest applause.
 "Harry Rafferty sang few verses in most creditable manner and was perfectly at home before the audi. ence."

Pleasant Surprise |.

On Sunday night the Scotch resi- dents Of Bisbee gave little surprise to MT. Wm. Bothwick on the occasion of his leaving that camp to work on some claims he owns near Yuma. A capital supper was prepared which every one did justice to. After supper MT. Wm. Strachan in a neat little speech presented MT. Borthwick with a set of sleeve buttons and scarf pin of native malachite and ruby set in gold. The evening was afterwards spent in singing. All enjoyed them selves and the pleasant affair wound up with singing Aud Lang Syne.

Arizona Grasses.

The Globe Silver Belt says that D. T. McDougal. special agent of the botanical division of the Department Of Agriculture. stopped over in Globe Wednesday, on his way south, to the Chiricahua mountains. Prof McDou- gal is engaged in the investigation and collection of plants, especially forage plants adapted to the arid region. He spent several months in Northern Arizona, in the Grand Canyon, San Francisco and Mogollon mountains, and secured a great variety of plants and grasses, number of which he believes to be new discoveries and some of great utility. MT. McDougal stated that none of the grasses imported into the western country have proved suc- cessful substitutes for the native grass. es. Of the latter the grammas are

THE last gun in the republican camp has been fired by Brewster Cam eron at Collector Christ. The latter has imported lot of Johnson grass seed and offers to give it away to ap- phcants. MT. Cameron strikes right from the shoulder in the following un- mistakable language:
 A number of my friends in the state of Texas planted the Johnson grass on their farms, under the impression that it was valuable forage. Some of them were so pleased with it the first year that they recommended it to me, but they have since written me that it has ruined their farms. They each pronounce it the farmers curse and all assure me that no greater mis- fortune could befall an agricultural or fruit growing community than the introduction of Johnson grass.
 also see from the agricultural papers of Texas that the concensus of opinion among the intelligent farmers of the state condemns it.

Carelessness of Dago Miranda Leads to the Death of His
 Mistress.

News was brought to town yesterday
 evening of the death of Isadora Peralte
 at Turquois by gunshot wound in fiicted by rifle in the hands of Dagc
 Miranda. The district attorney and Justice ..Alvord went out and an in- quest was held.
 The jury found that the deceased was aged thirty years, was a native'of Sonora. and came to her death by the the accidental discharge of a rife, and relieved the defendant from all blame. The testimony went to prove that he was cleaning his rife, not knowing that it was loaded, and was careless in handling it in close proxi mity to the woman; that he let it fall upon the ground when it was discharged, the bullet passing through the unfortunate woman's neck breaking the spinal column and causing instant death. The accident was witnessed by several Mexicans who substantiated the above in all it's main features.
 The couple had lived together for three years and had not had trouble. A coffin was sent out this morning and the funeral of the victim took place at

An Important Decision.

Aswill be seen by reference to the supervisors proceedings a warrant has been ordered drawn in favor of Sheriff Kelton for balance due him in ac- cordance with a decision of Judge Sloan.
 The circumstances connected with the case are important as precedent to govern the actions of other counties as well as Cochise, in the matter of compensating their sheriffs. Sheriff Kelton took mum Der of prisoners to Yuma. He took with him a deputy guard, and in due time put in his bill for mileage for each prisoner beside his own and that of his deputy, be- sides the expenses of the trip, fares, etc. This the board refused to allow claiming that the mileage on each prisoner was not warranted by law. Sheriff Kelton took exception to this ruling and an agreed case was submit ted to Judge Sloan who has decided that the board must pay mileage on every prisoner conveyed.

Ricardo Diaz, a Mexican, was killed

Ricardo Diaz, Mexican, was killed on Saturday last at rock quarry near Fairbapk. The testimony went to show that the deceased was at work against bluff of rocks and that one heavy rock slid of and struck him on the head. All the rest of the work men got olt of the way with the ex- ception of Diaz who had ample time to escape had he had less bravado and more discretion. The coroner's jury brought in verdict of death by a premature blast.

IN the year 1889 the tax levy at 4.OO4 per cent amounted to $125, ,S24. In 1890 with levy of 2954 it amounted to 89,307. And this year with a.levy of $50 it figures $1O6,4l7. The low figures last year account for the high figures this year and brings forward the reflection whether a general aver age would not be better than such terrible falls and steep ascents.

RECAPTURE OF CREIGHTON.
The Hero OF the Croton OIL Tncid emf
Again In Jail.

again Al Vdits
Hube Creighton, alias "Croton Oil Mil
ler," the five-year convict who escaped
from Sheriff Pitt at Port Madison We'd
nesday morning, was recaptured Wednes-
day night, and he is now safe in Jail here.
When Miller arrived at Port Madison,
Tuesday night, Sheriff Pitt appointed
Thomas Beaman as deputy to guard him.
Beaman slept during his watch, and the
prisoner had only to raise a window, drop
to the ground and take to the woods.
As soon as it was learned that Creighton
had escaped Sheriff Pitt ordered out 3
posse of deputies and stationed them
along the beach and in the woods. About
dark Wednesday night two deputies saw a
man walking on Sand Spit, about half a
mile from Port Madison, and. covering
him with guns, they ordered him to sur
render. The man was Creighton. He
was returned to Port Madison.
When Creighton escaped from the
deputy he had both hands and both feet
shackled. When captured he had sawed
off one of the shackles from his feet and
also one of his handouts from his wrist,
and he would have succeeded in saving
the rest of the irons had he been given a
few more hours.
Ed Carl, burglar under sentence of
five years. was chained to Creighton, and
together they were brought to Seattle yes
terday afternoon and lodged in the
county iaiI
