ANDREW HESS'S MURDER.
Mary Burris, Suspected of Implication,
Discharged by the Cadi.

Yesterday morning the Cad discharged
Mary Burris. who has been in custody for
several days upon the order of Coroner
Beck. who charged her with perjury in her
testimony before him in the inquest OH the
body of Andrew Hess. drowned in the
canal several days ago. A week
ago last Saturday night Hess was
W end at the time two women,
who gave their names as Mary Perry
aud Mary Holt were present. They gave
their addresses as West Indianapolis, but
neither of them have been located since
the drowning. The coroner learned that
the Burris woman had been absent from
home on Saturday night and had her
subpGDaed TO come before him. In her
testimony she said that she had been with
a young man named Naples. Naples de-
MED that he was with her and the coroner
suspected that the Burris woman knew
something about how Hess came TO his
perjury. She said that she was
acquainted with the Holt woman
and met her on Washinton
street. n was asked to wait there and
watch for John Furgeson. a brother of the
Holt woman. She said she waited and
Furgeson came MP in a buggy and told her
tina: his sister was IN trouble and he was
going to take her out of the city. 1t Is said
that night and there took O train for Louis
Vile. The coroner believes that Hess was
murdered and there is foundation for the
belief in the fact that there were bruises
upon the head or the body which was
enough to at least cause lnsensibility.

VICIOUS SALOON ASSAULT.
Unknown Man Beaten in McCarty's Dive,
q Democratic Stronghold.

There was q vicious assault made upon
an unknown man in McCsrty's saloon. at
the corner of Pine and Harrison streets, on
last Saturday night. With the connlvance
of the police the fact of the assault was kept
q secret till yesterday afternoon. Fred
Jasper. who was in the saloon, became in
volved in q quarrel with al unknown per-
son. and in q flight of passion struck him a
blow above the eye with q beer glass. The
blow felled him to the floor devoid of
senses, where he Law as one dead for more
than q half hour. The blood flowed freely
from a long, ragged cash in the fore
head Just above the eve, and though
there were several persons in the saloon
at the time no one made any effort TO give

and let him lie In a heap upon the noor. An
ambulance was finally called for. but upon
arrival at the saloon refused to remove the
man.
This is one of the kind of dives from
which the Democratic Is derIv-

standing that they shall be permitted to
have such outrageous tights in their places

AID FOR MUNCIE.
State Board of Health FavOrs Drawing
Upon the Epidemic Fund.

It appears that the letter sent Governor
Matthews last week by DR.. Boots. presi-
dent Of the State Board of Health, was not
IN exact accordance with the Vows of the
other members of the board. DR.. Boots. in
his remarks. stated that he could not su-
thorize the State to help the city of Muncie
IN fighting the smallpox plague out of the
appropriation made by the last Legislature.
Yesterday the opinion of the board as a
body was flied with the Governor. DIR.
Metealf. State secretary. says in his report
10 the Governor that DIR. Ramsey. of the
board. heartily Endorses the PROPOSE
ton TO assist the Muncie people
out OF the State funds, and that Dr. White
sides is also in favor of the plan. but does
hot believe the assistance should exceed
$500 a week. DE-. Metcalf Is o. the opinion
that DIR. Taylor will also indorse the views
of Dr. Ramsey.
On his own account. the Secretary is of
the OPINION that the State should NOT hest
tate to tender Muncie all the assistance
needed. He believes 10 Of the grayest i'm
portaDce that no expense should be spared
In the employ ment of skilled nurses and
the maintenance of a rigid quarantine sys-
tenn In and about the town. To do this. he
says. she people of Muncie are not able,
from the fact that their financial resources
are limited.

 89. What is the character of the population of southern Arizona2 It is mostly eastern, representing true Amer ican enterprise, stability and refine ment.
 90. What are the social characteris- tics of the country? Identical with those of the older eastern states. the leading residents having come from there with their intelligence and energy.
 9l. What would most excite the sur prise of newcomer from the east ? Not the roughness of western life and manners, but the likeness of society here to that of the east.
 92. What inducements are offered 10 wiute. visitors? Hotels and board ing houses at reasonable rates, hunting, fishing, mountain clim ping. magnir cent scenery, beautiful drives, good theatres, hospitable and cultivated society, free dom from cold, snow and changeable weather.
 93. What inducements are offered to the invalid? The mild and equable climate permits constant out-of.door life; bright snn-shiny days and immun- Ity from chaugeable weather give na- ture a chance to recuperate without medicines. Phoenix has many able physicians, however, who are at hand in acute cases.
 94. What railroad facilities are there? The Phoenix & Maricopa rail- road connects with the Southern Paci- iic railroad system at Maricopa Juno tion, a point on the main line of the Southern Pacific railroad, which is thirty-fye miles southeast fIom Ph9- nix. The Atchison, Topeka X Santa ke railroad system are now building from Ash Fork, a point on the Atlantic & Pacific railroad (part of the Santa Fe system,) via Prescott, in northern Ari- zona, to Phoenix. Reliable information authorizes the statement .hat this road will be completed 10 Prescott by Feb ruarv, 1893 q 900 men are at work, and reach Phoenix during October next. The completion of this road will give Phoenix competitive rates by two trans continental lines, and cheapen building material by shippingi in lumber from the immense pine forests of northern Ari- zoDa.

Engineering Skill.

Speaking of the remarkable feats of marine engineers, the Marine Journal recalls the achievement of Richard Peck, who at one time had charge of the single engine of the old City of Vera Cruz coming up from Havana. South of Hatteras the piston rod went to smash, breaking into three pieces But Peck, after twenty-four hours of con- tinuous labor, actually mendcd that piston so that it was strong and true enough to do it's part with the rest of the machinery, and he brought his ship into New York harbor steaming six knots. This was decd which, in the opinion of the Boston Journal, quite eclipses even the recent notable per formanceof Engineer Tomlinson, of the Umbria.
