HIGH GRADE IRON ORE.
An Immense Deposit Only Eight
 Miles From Phoenix.
MANY TONS OF TOMBSTONE,
From Which Can Be Made the Finest
 Steel in the World,
Located Where it Can Be Easily and Economically Worked and Made
 to Pay Handsomely.

The assertion that the mineral re- sources of Arizona have hardly been touched and are practically inexhausti- ble, is again forcibly illustrated by the existence of what is probably the largest body of lodestone, or high grade iron ore in the entire southwest, only few miles from this city.
 From this class of ore is manufactured the finest steel in the world known as Swedish steel. The ore is magnetic, of a dark or black lead color, and of con siderable hardness and weight. It at tracts iron filings, and communicates to iron the same property of attraction. But it's peculiar value consists in its communicating to needle the property Of taking direction to the north and south, property of inestimable utility in navigation and surveying.
 This body of ore lies about eight miles north of Phoenix on the road to the Phenix mine, and the Arizona canal passes through the deposit. The vein is from eight to fifty feet in thick ness and averages from 70 to 80 per cent of pure iron. In spots as much as half an acre of this ore is exposed to the surface, making it inexpensive to work.
 Aside from the mines in Pennsyl- vania and Alabama, where the veins are small and the work of getting ore out expensive, and the vast deposits in southeast Missouri, which Is of a low grade, the iron producing area of the United states is not large and as noth- ing ot the kind is being or has ever been worked in the southwest, this vast deposit might prove bonanza for some enterprising fellow or corporation.
 The water power of the Arizona canal would furnish sufficient power to work, with little expense, all preliminary work, drilling, etc., and, when needed, power to run mills, foundries and fac tories without number. The develop ment of the southwestern country will give demand for manufactured iron of all kinds, and the advent of railroads will furnish facilities for eventually shipping iron into California and Mex ico cheaper, by far, that iT can be car ried from Pennsylvania or elsewhere.
 Iron mining may not, just at present, be as profitable in Arizona as gold or silver, but with the advance of civiliZa- tion, the advent of the steam horse, improved machinery and electrical ap- pliances, the demand for high grade iron will increase in the southwest until the fortunate possessor of deposit of this class and extent will have fortune compared to which the mine of David Morning will sink into insigniticance.

A CARELESS JAILER.
witnesses Against the Regulators Bob the
 sheriT and Absoond.

DOUGLAS, Wy, 13.- A decided sensa- ton was created here this morning by the sudden mysterious disappearance ot the only known witness against the catt'emen who are now prisoners at Fort Russell. It will be remembered that just before the invaders attacked the TX. C." ranch they captured two trappers named Jones and Walker, who were held prisoners until after Cham pion and Ray were killed and were then released. Both made their way to Casper, and on Wednesday last were brought here und placed in charge of Deputy Sheriff Kimball. These men ', aimed to have witnessed the killing Purposes, there were 205 corn-fat bull locks, about 300 head of sheep and 200 horses. The horses were gotten out safely, but there was stampede among the cattle. About sixty head were roasted alive. When the fire had burn ed itself out the charred remains of the cattle were carted off to the ofral-house, followed by large crowd of hungry East siders.
 The cause of the fire is unknown. Whether it was from spontaneous com bustion, from over heated fat kettles or incendiary is yet to be learned, and an investigation is now going on. There has been a strike of Schwarschild x Sul- zberger's employees, and the theory is advanced that one of the strikers set fire to the building. The loss will be about $350, 900 fully covered by insur- ance.

A.Handsome n1ilkweed.

Travellers to the seacoast of southern
New Jersey from Philadelphia cannot
have failed to notice the bright patches
of orange colored flowers which so de-
light the eye as the train passes through
the meadows. 1t is the Asclepias tube
rosa, one of the milkweed family and
one of the most easily transplanted
plants there is. 1t has fleshy roots,
which penetrate to great depth, max
ing it suitable for rather dry places.
Furthermore, these roots, when
broken to pieces, form new plants, SO
that large number of plants can easily
be propagated. The common name Of
this superb wild flower is butterfly
weed. Among the beds of Towering
plants exhibited at the Centennial ex-
hibition there was brought by a gar
dener from Holland one composed of
these plants and it excited as much
attention as any bed re.-Phila-

A viii That Makes No Bequests.

The will of Edward G. Knight, the
sugar refiner, has been admitted to pro-
bate by Register of Wills Shields and
is somewhat peculiar instrument
1t makes no bequests to the heirs of the
testator, providing only for the appoint
ment of the executors of the estate. The
large property will therefore be divided
according to the intestate laws. The
exact value of the estate cannot be
known until an inventory is taken, but
it is estimated to be worth nearly sc, ,O0O,-
900. The widow and son of the de-
cedent, Anna M. Knight and Edward G.
Knight, Jr., are named as the executors.
No disposition is made of the beautiful
park near Collingswood, in Camden, but
the offer of the property as gift to the
city has not been withdrawn. Mr..
Knight spent considerable money in i'm
proving the grounds, and about four
years ago threw them open as a public
park Later he offered to give the
grounds to the city of Camden if the
city would agree to care for and main
tain them, but the necessary legislation
for the acceptance of the gift has never
been obtained. = Philadelphia North

Two Lovers at canonchet.

A story is going the rounds here which
causes considerable amusement. A short
time ago two lovers, who had come out
for walk in the moonlight, strayed
into Mrs. Sprague's grounds, and their
sweet dream was rudely broken in upon
by the baying of the hounds, who gave
chase to the intruders. The young lady
stood not upon the order of her going,
but went at the top of her speed, while
her less nimLle lover climbed to the top
of haystack, where he remained till 3
o'clock, when he was rescued by Mrs.

a c.evs,. .y,- .,s,.,,~.'

Il Superintendent Byrnes would onlv
run down q very plsusibIe swindler who
has just begun operations in the old
Ninth ward, the janitors Of the many
apartment houses i'll that part of the
city would sleep better these hot nights.
The man is q genius in his way, and
owes his success to the perfect manner
in which he has worked out the details
Of his scheme. Yesterday morning
when the janitress of O fat house an
swered his ring she was completely be-
guiled by his Chesterfeldian manners,
which were further enhanced by styl-
ish suit Of clothes and a glossy silk hat.
AS he looked at the apartments the man
ratified off plausible story that was
well calculated to deceive. He wished
q Hat for his old mother, who was an
invalid at present residing in the coun-
try. He was wealthy, being in bust
ness in Broadway, and as he wished to
make his mothers last days as comfort
able as possible, only the best rooms in
the house would suit him. The jani-
tress showed her sunniest apartments
and the man appeared delighted. He
ordered the rooms thoroughly cleaned,
and was about taking his departure
when the janitress suggested that it
was customary to leave deposit.
The man put his hand in his pocket,
and with an exclamation Of impatience
remarked that he, left his office in a
hurry and forgot to bring any money
with him. Then he remembered that
he had check, which of course was
just the same. 1t was for ten dollars,
and he requested the janitress to take
three dollars deposit on the rent, one
dollar on the keys, and give the woman
two dollars for the cleaning. He would
leave the whole amount, only he would
have to pay for the moving before he
got back to his office. The janitress
was so impressed with his offhand man.
ner that she regretted she hadn't four
dollars in the house, and felt rather
small when she came back and told the
man she had only three dollars. He
seemed little disappointed at first, but
took the money and said he would trust
her for the balance until he returned in
the evening. The janitress congratu-
lated herself upon having secured good
tenant, and it wasn't until the rooms
were all as clean as the proverbial new
pin that she took the check to a store to
have it cashed AS soon as the grocer
saw the check he said it was no good,
as it was not drawn on bank at all
