rEMPERATuRE AND SUNSHINE.

For the week ending September 19 1892.
 TEMPERATURE AND SUNSHINE.
 The week ending Sept2mbeT ,9, ike the preceding seven days was much warmer than usual, the excess in tenn perature averaging about 4 degrees above the normal. At Yuma the aver egs maximum temperature was 1O7 de- grees; average minimum, 73 degrees, at Tucscn, average maximum temperature YS degrees, average minimum, 64 degrees at DudleyvIlle, average maximum tenn perature, S9 degrees, average minimum, e degrees. The amount of sunshine has also been greater tbau usual. Clear, hot days have prevailed generally throughout the Territory causing a rapid evaporation from irrigated lands.
 RAINFALL.
 The rainfall has been unusually light and at stations reporting rainfall, fell ID quantities insufficient to be beneficial to vegetation. The average rainfall was about 03O inches below the normal. The following stations reported rain Dudleyville, trace; Walnut Grove, 0.O6 inches. All other stations reported no precipitation.
 CROP SUMMARY.
 In extreme western Arizona alfalfa and other crops have made good grow tn during the week. The water in the Colorado river Is lower than it has been for several years, but crops in the valley are doing well. In the vicinity of Yuma the weather has been favorable for growing crops, ripening fruit and cur ing hay. The cattle ranges Tn tue river bottoms are in excellent condition and and cattle are looking well. Most crops have been planted and farmers taking respite from their tolls. Plen- ty of water is available in the nelghbor hood of Dudleyville for irrigation, and alfalfa and other crops continue to grow well. Good rains have fallen on the range and in the mountains mak- ing grass plentiful for cattle feed. In the western part of COchise county ia the vicinity of Grand Central Mill, the temperature and sunshine being excess i've has been injurious to all but irrigat- ed lands where crops are doing nicely, but grazing land is failure, the hot weather drying up the young grass. In the vicinity of Calabasas the weather hns been excessively hot and all crops not under irrigation have suffered ma terislly. The situation has not improv- ed in the eastern part of Cochise. The grass is short and cattle have difficulty finding sufficient water to slack their thirst. The prospects at present are that two-thirds of :be cattle will die for want of feed.

GOOD THUNDER, Oct. 5.
friedrich SchisSler, the man who took
poison, was buried here at four O'Clock
this afternoon.
Last Sunday he had a quarrel with
his wife and threatened to hang her.
She became frightened and went
away to her sisters, Mrs. Hoeft.
Mr.. Schissler came to Good Thun-
der yesterday, (Oct. 4th,) went to the
drug store and bought Strychnine.
Then he went out in the country to
Mr.. Hoeft's, where his wife was, and
said if she did not go home with him
he would poison himself. She refus-
ed to go and he took the poison. At
ter he had taken the poison he want
ed his brOther-in-law to take him to
the doctor. They had not gone more
than half a mile when he died. He
was man who has been very mean
to his family and had driven three
boys away from home.
They have a farm of 100 acres,
about six miles northeast of Good
Thunder. He leaves a wife and sew
en- children, the eldest is Is years old,
1t is thought by some the man was
not in his right mind.

A REPLEVIN SUIT.

An interesting replevin was tried
Monday and Tuesday at Lake Crystal,
before Justice HI. @. Howard. Ole
Odjard, of this city, brought an action
to recover tailoring bill of $50 from
A. M. Johnson, formerly a druggist of
Lake Crystal, but now of Chicago, and
attached horse which was at Lake
Crystal. Mr.. Johnson's mother, who
resides in Minneapolis, replevined
the horse, claiming il was hers. 1t
was this feature Of the case that was
on trial this week. The replevin suit
was brought against Constable G.. M.
Cole, who took the horse on the at
tachment. w. r. Geddes and A. M
Rutan appeared for Mr.. Cole, and d.
A. Reed and VIII. Cole for rs.John-
son. The prosecution attempted to
show that the horse is worth but 800,
while the defense tried to prove that
it is worth over S10O,in order to throw
the case out Of the jurisdiction of the
justice. The latter has the case I'M
der advisement. The horse is now in
the custody of A. w. Johnson, of
Lincoln.
The case is pretty sure to go into
the district court.

Couldst thou o various mariner of Genoan birth
Heavens portals severing, but at this hour be-
Royal like triumphs thine; how honored and
revered
Is thy renown by all those nations of this earth
Surprising by enlightenment. Thy fame
To now compare with base ingratitude
Of thy contemporaries, who but feared
Perhaps to give all fairness latitude
How highly cherished would once be thy name
Effectively, the cultured people of both hemi
spheres,
Renders homage to thy fortitude, the past four
hundred years.
Columbia, fair Columbia! This is thy gala-day
On grid thy finest garments, and sing thy Hottest

Link to thy beateous harbors and hospitable
strand,
Unitedly the children OF every other land
Majestic as thy presence, grand as thy liberty,
Be always just and gem rous to Colom's memory
Unfurl thy starry banners, play athens sweet
and grave,
Sound praise in ev'ry household, of him SO wise
and brave.

THE SUICIDE.

The main facts regarding the sui
eide of Fred SchisSler, near Good
Thunder, were given exclusively in
Wednesdays FREE PRESS. There
were some minor details which we
were unable to obtain at the time of
going to press. 1t appears that Schiss-
ler's conduct drove his wife to leave
him Sunday. She went to neigh
boris house, but he went after her
Tuesday and vainly endeavored to
persuade her to return home. He
threatened to kill himself, but his
wife took no stock in the threat.
SchisSler then went to Good Thunder
and purchased small bottle of
strychnine from the druggist, saying
that he wanted to poison rats. He
went home and put part of it in
water and drank it. When
it began to take effect, which
was at $50 p. M, he evidently
changed his mind, for he drank a
large quantity of milk for the purpose
of offsetting the effects of the poison.
Members of the family started to
drive him to Good Thunder, thinking
that doctor would be more quickly
reached that way than by going to
town aud bringing a doctor out.
Schissler had taken just the right
amount of the poison to act rapidly,
for he died while on the road. When
found. the strychnine bottle was four
f1fths empty.
The deceased leaves wife and sew
eral children. He was not a good
husband and year or two ago forced
several of his little children to leave
home. Stories of his brutality were
rife. Several years ago he left his
family and went East, but returned
after his wife had tOiled hard enough
to become so that she could support
the family. If there was any good
that could be said of Schissler we
have not heard of it, and from all &C
counts his family will be better off as
if now is

THURSDAYS FIRE.

The old two-story frame building
back of A. Anderson's saloon, on S.
Front street, took fire in some unac-
cOuntable way at about 4:45 O'Clock
Thursday afternoon. In wonderfully
short space of time it was mass of
flames. The fire department was on
the ground and had streams of
water on the fire in a very few mo-
ments and eXtinguished the flames,
but it was necessary to pull the old
she'll down. When the department
arrived one or two adjoining sheds
were on fire but they were saved. The
loss is slight, as the old building was
worthless and the adjoining property
owners had for some time wanted it
torn down. 1t belonged to the III. x.
Lee estate, of which S. f. Barney is
administrator. In the early days it
was Allen & Pardee's store, but was
purchased by Mr.. Lee, who moved it
back and put up fine brick store in
it's place. 1t had been unoccupied for
some years.
Had strong west wind prevailed it
might have been no easy task to pre-
vent the fire from spreading to the
stores along Front street. The alleys
are full of old sheds which it would be
the part of wisdom for the council to
condemn.
The fire department did splendid
work. 1t was prompt and efficient,
and no time was lost anywhere.
There was fine water pressure.
