Where He Will Be Safe.

Last week Sheriff Little, of Apache county, brought Walter Bell from St. Johns and lodged him in the Flagstaff jail for safe keeping. Bell is q notori- ous character, and recently made his escape from the Apache county jail, but was rccaptured and returned to St. Johns in time for trial at the April term of court, when he was convicted for assault and received sentence of one year in the county jail. He was also indicted by the grand jury for murder and for horse stealing, both crimes alleged to have been committed in Apache county. He will be confined in the Coconino county jail until the next term of court in Apache, the jail in the latter county not being deemed safe enough to keep such desperate character in without keeping day and night guard over him. The Apache county authorities pay the expense of keeping Bell in our jail.

CREMATED IN A BURNING HOME.
Mrs. Mary J. Huffman and a Littl, Child Burned to Death Tuesday
 Night in Flagstaff,

| Night in Flagstaff.
 Tuesday night, about half-past nine, the citizens of Flagstaff were startled by the firing of pistols, three shots in rapid succession, it being the we'll known alarm of fire. The fire was in the residence of Mrs. Mary J. Huff man, in the western part of town.
 When the fire broke out Mrs. Huff man was visiting at a neighbors and had left three-year-old child asleep in the house, After being there short time she looked out of the window and saw her home in flames, and at once started for the house to rescue the sleeping child. She entered the house by the rear door, passed through the flames, which, by this time, had filled the house. She reached the child, and made her way to the front door, where she fell, overcome by the flames, losing her life in the vain cndeavor to save the life of child entrusted to her care. The child was three years old, son of John Hovey, formerly of Clifton, but now residing in Ash Fork.
 The origin of the fire is unknown, but it is supposed that lamp was left burning in the room and it exploded setting the house on fire and spreading the flames through the rooms.
 Mrs. Huffman, who so bravely lost her life, was an old resident of Flag staff, and leaves family of three sons and three daughters. Deceased was about 60 years of age.
 The funeral of Mrs. Huffman and the child will take place from the Catholic church at o'clock p. m. to- day.
 The sad affair has cast gloom over our community and the sorrowing rel atives of the victims of the fire have the heartfelt sympathy of our citizens. Since the settlement of Flagstaff the fire fiend has claimed four human beings for his prey. The first was old man Stemmer, and the second barber named Bittenger, the other two written of in this article. "

T. E. Mithoff, who, for the past year, has been engaged in the saloon business in this place, disappeared one night this week, leaving numerous creditQrs to mourn his sudden depart ure. Whether his nasty exit was caused by the urgent demands of his creditors to pay their bills, or whether it was his deliberate intention to beat his bills, is q question upon which his friends are divided.

To The Editor Of the AIeraadria Gazette:
In an article in the GAZETTE of yesterday
il was stated that ut Il meeting of i.pworth

ers of Snowden School attacked tic manage
mcnt of Hallowcll School. The reference is
so plainly to me that desire to set the mat

Hallowell School were made by 4 young man
named VIM. Preston, and the teacher of that
school who is reported as having replied
sharply TO me, addressed her remarks to him.
Surely. have better ideas of propriety than
to do anything of the kind. So far from at
lacking the school | rather defended il when
sharp criticisms were passed upon it. The
subject under discussion was paper on
Education, Effective and Defective by Prof
Kelly Miller, of Howard University. He
dealt with the whole educational problem
collegiate. intermediate and primary. said
that the education that did not result in max
ing 3 boy or girl gentle, more kind, more
courteous less thoughtful of self, more
thoughtful of others, more helpful. more
obedient, more courageous in the mainteu-
ance of right, more brightminded than when
entering school. was failure. no matter how
much knowledge he or she might have. |
held that our schools had not had this result.
What might have been taken as an assault
upon Hallowell School was my statement that
after twenty-Onc years of schools our boys
and girls were not as q rule able to maintain
themselves in intelligent conversation; that
they preferred nonsense to sense.
