THE MOSS POINT ARSON CASE.

Last Friday Gordon Childrcss, j.
w. Frost aud Thos. Grant were
brought before Chancellor S. Evans
on a writ of habeas corpus, to be
tried for the burning of a store in
Moss Point. This case has caused a
great deal of excitement and comment
in this section. The parties above
named had a preliminary hearing at
Moss Point before Justice Thompson
the same day of the fire, and was by
him committed TO Jail in default Of
$1,000 bonds. Therefore il became
necessary 10 sue out a writ of habeas
corpus. We did not expect from the
heavy bail required, and the
amount of talk about the case, that
the prosecution would make a pretty
fair showing TO show up the guilt OF
the parties, but in that they were
mistaken, for a weaker prosecution
was seldom ever made. There was
not evidence enough in the case to
hold the accused much less a convic-
lion. They were promptly released.

 A motion was made hy Prindiville to elect permanent clerk and A. w. Smith was nominated.

A Military View.

The elitor of the Huachuca Senii- nel dila,es as follows upon the out look for cattlemen on the ranges along the foothills of those.
 The heavy rains of this week has insured plenty of grass for the cattle on the ranges. The prospect for the cattlemen is hundred percent better than it was year ago. We rejoice on account of the poor cattle. It is hard enough for the poor things to stand the crnciixion of the brand- iron, and have their ears cut into ril- bons, their throats and briskets orDa. ment, d with the Cewlap, without be- ing compelled to have 'he sinews of a warhorse and the heetness of an an telope in order to run down grass enough for quarter meal.

The Saucy Sentinel.

The Huachuca Sentinel, published at the post, reveals 8 spirit of inde pendence in it's last issue. It utters an appeal for dumb brutes in the fol- lowing fashion:
 A squad of ten cavalry horses from St. Louis, reached the post on Wednes- day, one died,of pneumonia between the station and the post, some of the others were in bad condition from ex- posture on the trip. Itwould be econ omy for the government, besides be- ing very merciful to a poor dumb brute, to provide suitable blankets for horses shipped at this season of the year. These horses are taken from warm stables, some of them accustom- ed to blankets and shipped subject to drafts, cold weather and storms. and are e mpelled to endure untold suffer ings. So ne die, some are ruined from disease contracted on these trips while all are required to be put in the hos pital and nursed month or more to be rendered fit for service. A two dollar horse blanket would save twenty five dollars on the value of the horse and save an amount of suffering to one of Gm's best anu noblest dumb brutes. that cannot be estimated. We protest in the name of humanity, and plead for mercy for one of mans best friends--the horse.

Five of the prisoners are charged with the murder of white men years ago and Eskimizene and the other three are apprehended for giving aid to Kid the notorious rene gade and murderer. All of Kid's close and open companions in crime have been killed, but he appeared last week within seven miles of San Carlos and troops were sent in pursuit of him six days ago. Up to yesterday after noon nothing had been heard From them.
