a Reminder OF Mark Twain.

A strange war story comes from
New Zealand. Some gears ago Sir
John Gorst lived in Wabato and ed
tied the Maori newspaper, Ne Hakioi
The paper was printed and published
near the scene Of some OF the hottest
fighting Of the war then raging. Dur
ing the struggle the Maoris ran short
Of ammunition, and having no balls
for their fourteen-pound gun they
loaded them with shop weights CON
iiscaled from neighUoring shopkeep-
ers This source Of supply was soon
exhausted. Then raid was made up
ON the EakiOi office, and their guns
were charged with type and stereo
blocks This new ammunition, so the
story goes, proved very effective. One
Of the white invaders was injured by "a
patent medicine advertisement, an
other was iuvalided BY 4 church ba-
zar uup1uuacmcnC' third lost q leg
THROUGH 70 solid leader on the land bin.
and SIR Luu who had taken refuge
with tine British troops, had narrow
ESCAPE from being hlt with one OF bis
ONu poems.

Double Quick Action.

John Castello was arrested early yes teldav morning by Deputy Marshal Hickey on a charge of drunkenness and disturbing the peace. He had an i'm mediate hearing before Recorder Schwartz and was given $50 fine or fifty days Tn the city jail. Castello poses as terror and yesterday morning he con- cluded to exterminate the Chinese race and opened hostilities in the rear of the Chinese restaurants on Washington street. A Chinese vegta ble peddler was the first victim of his wrath, and after trimming him up he directed his atten- tion to MT. A. L. Henshaw, whom he struck severe blow. Mr. Henshaw had tried to make peace and keep the Chinaman from being molested. Cas- tello will have time to collect his thoughts and may conclude to let MT Geary handle the Chinese question.

GOOD PROPERTY.

Late Report From the Africa Mine
 Across the Colorado.
 A recent letter from ex-sheriff Bud Gray accompanied by cut or cross sec 7tion of the mining work done on the Africa indicates that the claim WAS well named as it is indeed rich one.
 The shaft is now sunk no feet all the way through good ore and at 8 point near the bottom of the shaft hole was drilled through into what was supposed to be the fool wall. when to their great surprise body of $200 ore was encoun- tered. This adds one more rich streak to the vein and makes the ledge matter be- tween the foot and hanging wall at least thirty-eight feet instead of thirty-two as was formerly supposed. Through this thirtytwo feet between the shaft and the ganging wall number of rich streaks of $200 ore IS encountered while they say the entire body between the walls run $20 to the ton outside of the rich vein.
 If this be true the mine is of vast ex- tent and it's real value would be diffi- cult to compute. Col. c. H. Gray and F.. H. Hitler will start in a few days and be gin the shipment of ore, which they say will at present cost $60 g ton.
 The mine IS not for sale and these gentlemen say it is typical poor mans mine and requires little or no capital to operate it.

SORTILLON'S STORY
Of the Birth and Death of the
 MOhaVe Babe.
The Murder Trial Will Probably Reach the Jury Early This
 Afternoon.

The testimony of both sides in the Sortillon case was nearly concluded yes terday. It is likely the case will go to the jury this afternoon. It has been so obstinately fought that there Is good ground for difference of opinion as to whether Sortillon is a most fiendish murderer or whether he is the victim of an inhuman tribal custom of the Mohaves.
 The chief witness against him yester- day was young man from Yuma, named Ott, who testified that he over heard a conversation in Spanish be- tween the prisoner and his father at Norton's landing where the prisoner had come immediately after the mur- der of the babe. The witness said he was standing behind clump of bushes about 30 or 35 feet from the Sortlllons when he heard the son ask whether or not he could be held responsible for a murder which he had sent some one else to commit.
 On cross examination the witness was asked if he had not told District Attorney Wilson, of Yuma county, in his office, that he was unable at that time to understand the conversation between the Sortillons. At first he ad- mitted such a statement but inme- dlately after denied it and said that he had told the district attorney that he knew nothing about the guilt Of Jose, the Indian brother of Vera the mother of the murdered babe.
 To impeacn this witness Mir. Wilson himself who is associated in the de- fense of Sortillon was put on the stand. He swore that Ott had told him in his office that he was too far away from the Softillons to hear what they said as the conversation was carried on in Spanish which he did not understand we'll.
 Mir. Wilson's testimony developed 8 tilt between him and United States District Attorney Ellinwood oyer the formers connection with the case be- fore the United States commissioner as prosecutor.
 The prisoner himself testified. He began in Spanish but having warmed to his subject dropped into fair Eng fish and the interpreter was discarded. He said that when the child was born the old mother Mana in pretending to sever the um bilical cord tried to kill the DaDe. inc prisoner reLnousGrdGeu WltH her and she said that she didn't know who "belonged to it" and she had nothing for it to eat. He prevented her from killing it then notwithstanding Wera's indifference. Shortly after Mana and the boy Jose, took it away and that was the last the witness saw of it. He left for Yuma the next day and on his arrival there told the story of the murder.
 Marco Novarro, the reputed father of the babe, was put on the stand to swear that Vera told him before her conine- ment that he was the father. An ob- jection to this testimony was sustain ed :.
