THE GREAT SANGiR ERUPTION.


AMSTERDAM, July 27.-The Handlesblad
of this city publishes letters from Ce!eoess
giving the details OF the recent eruption ci
the volcano Gunoua on Great San9ir
island The eruption commenced one day
early in June. Immense volumes OF name,
smoke and masses of stones suddenly
burst from the volcano. The stones Tell
all over the island, killing hundreds OF
the natives, who were busy In the helos
getting in the rice crop. Those who sue
ceeded in reaching the supposed sheiter
of their homes found no refuge, many OF
the houses having been crushed beneath
the weight of falling stones, and the rools
having collapsed under the weight OIL
ashes, burying the inmates, III many IN
stances whole families.
Streams of lava flowed with frightfu
rapidity down the slopes of the mountalnl
upon which there were situated numerous
farms and villages. Houses and fugltlves
alike were overwhelmed by these rivers OF
molten rock. It is estimated that over
1000 persons perisbed on the slopes OF the
mountain and hundreds more IN the low
lands. But the exact loss OF LIE Is not
vet known. A week after the eruption
abated the inhabitants were still IN state
of terror, and would not approach the
scene of the disaster.
The island is now threatened with
famine, all the crops having been destroy,
ed. In many parts of the island the wells
have become dry. The Dutch colonies are
doing their best for the inhabitants or the
island. Many doctors have been sent to
the scene of the disaster. The Inhabitants
are nearly demented.

MINING NOTES.

Ben Cook has contributed a fine specimen of ore from the Herschel mine to the Worlds Fair exhibit being collected by Tom Sorin.
 Two years ago to-day silver was quoted at l.l6, lead at 4.04, and cop- per 10 .S5. One year ago to-day silver was quoted at 9S3. lead at 4.35 and copper at l2, To-day silver was quo- ted at S244 copper ll.G0 and lead 4O5.
 Gus Barron and Tom Sorin return ed yesterday from trip to tine for mei's mining properties in the Hua- chuca mountains. They bionght back few hundred pounds of samples for the Worlds Fair exhibit. One Of the properties is gold ledge of inn mense size, and the other of copper and zinc. Mir, Sorin speaks highly of that section of the county, both as mineral and grazing country. The grass is growing finely, and as far as the eye can reach in all directions a vast expanse of country covered with green meets the vision. Rains have been abundant and during the day they stayed there it rained nearly all the time. The gold mine belonging to Mir. Barron and associ- ates Is still under bond and is being worked. It shows up ) feet of ore that will mill s,5 per ton, while one streak from 10 to I5 inches will sam pie S60 per ton. Mir. Sorin has a piece of the latter that weighs in the neighborhood of 100 pounds and is a fine specimen.

A Heavy Rainfall.

A very heavy storm burst ever the San Jose mountains on Sunday even- ing last, continuing for nearly two hours, deluging the country 10 the Bscuachi range to the southeast, the cananea 10 the south, and reaching Tombstone. The average rainfall for the area covered was over an inch, the fall in the San loses being especially heavy, all of the canyons running like mill races.
 The immense water shed of the upper San Pedro, bounded by the eastern end of the Huachucas, the Santa Cruz and Cananea mountains. comprising the La Bota and Hsgin Bros. grants, received another drench- ing Monday and Tuesday, the rainfall at the mouth Of Copper canyon being l inches. The San Pedro was out of its banks yesterday morning from Hereford down, flooding the Crystal Springs flat, but fell nearly four feet by o'clock.
 The PRosPEcToR learns the above facts from Tom SOrin, who returned last night from the section of country mentioned.

CLEARING A MYSTERY.
FusTner Particulars of the Find of a Dead Mans Bones in the Sulphur
 Spring Valley.

The following letter was received last night from Descanso, which will explain itself:
 DEscANsO, Sulphur Spring Valley.
 Aug IS, 1892. $. c. Bagg = Enclosed you will find some papers that found in the pocket of some overalis that belonged to the same man whase saddle, blank cts, etc, Frank Buckles found two miles south of the Soldier Holes Cattle Co.'S double windmill last June.
 l found two pair of overalls, in one leg of which was the mans leg bone. Other bones l also found near hv. He had ou a pair of woven drawers. Also found pair of No. s shoes, nearly new, which look like the shoes fur nished the San Carlos Indians by the government. Also found a U. s. gun belt and shirts. The skull bone ard arms were not to be found. I found in one pair of the oyeralls these letters, which l cannot read, AS they are writ. ten in Spanish, but think they may throw some light upon the mans identity. There were no other pocket pieces to be found. with the exception Of lead pencil. Camp still has the mans dog, which he found at the well. Yours Respectfully,
 VIM. II. FINLEY.
 The only iutelligible paper found which could throw any light upon the identity of the dead man was one wbich contained two names, neither of which is probably the name of the deceased, but he was evidently the bearer mentioned in the note. Trans lated it reads as follows:
 P. Abelino Please deliver to bear CT the things I left with you, and oblige Your Obedient Servant,
 JESUS BUsTos. IL was written on piece of ruled note paper, in ink and in good hand There were three more pieces of manuscript but they were not intelligible. One other piece of note paper contained prayer, which was written in bold hand, also in inE. The publication of the above letter will probably be the means of discov- ering the identity of the man.

John Montgomery.

It is hardly necessary to introduce Mir. Montgomery to the public, as he has been before the people for 70 many gears The fact that he has de- clared himself candidate for county treasurer is sufficient ground for the observation that whoever opposes him in the convention will have task on his hands, and wh ever opposes him in the campaign will have 10 be of first class timber. He has been connected with county matters for so many years that he is perfectly at home with the affairs connected with the county tressurer's office.

S6Noh
 Billy Reed and his brother Joe have finished their chloriding job, and are with us once more.
 Mir. Ben Williams and a party of friends left yesterday morning for a weeks outing in the Huachucas.
 It is hopep we may be able to dedi- cate oar new school house about the Ist of September. The entire proceeds of the entertainment will be devoted to the purchase of pictures, mottos, flowers, charts etc for beautifying the interior.
 It does seem hard that Bisbee, after covering yaIds of paper and spending pounds Of stamps in trying to induce the Tombstone ball club to give our boys return game of ball, the grave yard village should now try to even up matters by sealing over the "Pio- neers' to play the small boys oi Bis bee. Can't you send over a represen- tatiye team of men to play our regular team? Capt, Hawke said he intendsd sending Twomey and his nine to up- hold the Tombstone honor, but we didn't suppose he was in earnest.

Scott White.

The announcement of Scott White appears in another column. Mir. White will be candidate for sheriff before the Deraocratic convention. He has certain qualifications for the office that few men possess. His residence oi fourteen years in the county has acquainted him with every nook and corner in it. His knowledge of men and manners on the frontier has taught him 10 act in cases tf emer- gency as men should who are charged with protecting property and life and meting out justice to criminals. He is young, energetic, and knows no such word as fear. In his hands the county would be we'll guarded against lawlessness.

Out of Luck.

Jack Martin went back to the old country from Telluride a short time ago. He took draft for 5000 from Dan Hamilton, who keeps the Cornish Arms hotel in New York city. The dIsft was drawn on Maverick and Warrington, Liverpool. When he presented the draft 1t was not paid. Hamilton had pocSeted the money, and had no credit in Liverpool. Jack returned 10 New York and had Ham, ilion arrested, but could not do any thing with him, as the district attor- ney said the case did not come under the New York statutes. Hamilton got away with about $6 900 altogether. Martin is we'll krown in Tombstone, and his friends will be sorry to hear of his loss.
 In an open letter of three columns in length, published in the Telluride Republican, he advises all Cornish men going to Europe to steer clear of the Cornish Arms hotel, which is a deadiall, under its present manage ment. He recommends the Star hotel, ii3 Hudson St, kept by Veal & Stevens.

They were taken before Justice Alyord who reprimanted them and it Is to be hoped that they will not repeat the performance. Boys who thoughtlessly take property belonging to others must learn that it is a ser ious ohense.

Indian Sch uois.

A second report on the Indian s Of the southwest has been re- ceived at the Indian bureau from Dr. Dorchester, the superintendent Of Indian schools. This report deals with the Indians in Arizona and gives prominence to the Apache and Maya joes. The whole Indian population O: the territory is given as 35,757, and the number of children as capable for schools at 4,260. This is an increase in population since 1880, 32I6. Of the children about I200 attend school either in Arizona or elsewhere. In 1880 only 73 children of Arizona made any pretence of attending school. The school accommodations though yet small, are said to be increasing each year, and for 1893, accom- moIa,ions will be furnished for lO70 children in the territory.

Cham bcr of Gam mn cree,

The Chamber Of Commerce met last night to discuss several important questions, among which was the question of the advisability of funding the funding the city indebtedness. After a thorough discussion of the question it was decided by a vote that "ii is the sense ol this meeting that the indebtedness of the city be fund ed." There were but three votes cast against the proposition. It was q peculiar fact that all of those who at a prior meeting were opposed to fund ing, were in favor of it last night, while those who were in favor of it then were either indifferent to it or against it at last nights meeting.
 A committee of three, composed of R. W. Wood, Geo. Fitts and s. c. Bagg, was appointed to wait upon the council and lay the matter before them.
 Several new names were added to the roll of membership.
