Sailor Jimmy's Death.

SELIGMAN, September 25th.- From our regular correspondent. Last evening on the arrival of No. west bound passenger train, at $ o'clock, five or six tramps, all more or less under the influence of drink, tried to ride out of town on the break beams and rods, and all were success full but one unfortunate whose name was James Carroll, who being so drunk fell from the brake beam and was horribly mangled. Both legs were run over just below the knees, the right arm was badly crushed and left hand was almost cut of. He also sustained serious injuries about the left breast. The man was conscious up to the time of his death which occurred about one hour after the accident.
 James Carroll is the man who, a short time ago, was in Prescott mak- ing wooden ornaments. His home Is some place in Illinois, town not known. He was a professional tramp and his partner, who has been with him for the last five or six years, is expected to return some time to-day and probably more information may be obtained as to his identity. He was familiarly known as Sailor Jimmy, and his name appears at all places where men of his character are in the habit of registering.

Yuma Prisons First Inmate.

The Yuma Times gives the fol ing account of that penitential per sonage: Last Friday, William Hall walked out of the Yuma peniten- tiary for the third time a free man once more. Hall stands on the pris- on register as No. 1, being the first convict committed after the estab- lishment of the institution at that place. This was in May, 1875. His sentence was for life, for manslaugh- ter committed in Pima county. There being no buildings at that time. Hall spent year or so of his sentence in the county jail. He was pardoned and released in July, 1884. His next sentence was for grand lar ceny in Pinal county, and he ar rived at the prison again in 1886, on a two years term. His behavior was good and he received credits, so that he was entitled to discharge in July, 1888. Next he was indicted for the same ofense in Maricopa county, under alias of J. J. Bunk. found guilty and given a three years term, arriving at Yuma on May l5, 1889. Again his behavior was good and his credits amounted to eight months, which was deducted from his time.

A telegram from London says: The banking world has just been startled by the announcement of an important bank robbery. The in stitution is the London and Westminster hank limitedl. It is an important establishment, having over fifty branch houses in this city. The money stolen consisted of a large parcel of bills remitted from country banks to the London and Westminster bank. The thief or thieves must have cleverly watched for the proper opportunity to ae- complish the robbery and have gained access to the apartment near the main entrance to the bank. The apartment is easy of access from the street, and the parcel of bills is supposed to have been stolen while the bank officials were busily engaged in another apartment. It is reported that the amount stolen is not less than Sl ,250.0Oo. The po- lice authorities and Scotland Yard are putting forth their utmost exer- tions to effect capture of the thieves.

A western paper calls attention to "a new prohibition horror" which has been invented by citizen of Maine-the same state which recent lv gave to the world the weird bev- craze known as ''uno." The new drink is called cider punch, and it is made by pouring a bottle or two of Jamaica ginger into a pail of ci- der. It completely baffles the pro hihition laws, and yet it has an i'm mediate and searching effect. Some what in resemblance to the famous pinetop whisky, 1t has more teeth in it than a cross-cut saw, and when a man drinks 1t it leaves a dark brown taste in his mouth. It Is re- lated in triumphant illustration of the penetrating virtues of this punch, that gentleman of long ex- perienee in the non-prohibitory states, after toying with it for a few rounds, walked into a Portland, Me, barber shop and gravely asked for an oyter stew.-Ex.
