PROBATE JUDGE AND COUNTY HOSPITAL. Your committee beg leave to re- port:
 After examining the office Of pro- bate judge, find that the affairs Jf the office appear to be properly conduct ed. Some improvements have been made in the manner of indexing the books and of keeping allowance ac- counts with the several estates in the probate court. We also find that the Board of Supervisors have neglected to allow and order paid the salary of the probate judge tor the first quarter Of the current year. We suggest the need of another case of pigeon holes in his office.
 On county hospital we have only to report that we have ascertained the number of patients 10 be six, viz: four male and two female. The patients appeared to be well treated and in quiry developed no complaint. We recommend that a new floor be laid in the kitchen. JOHN MONTGOMERY.

in the territory of Arizona, Jas. P. McAllister. then holding the office of treasurer ond ex-officio tax collector of the county of Cochise. was duly elected supervisor of said Cochise county and at said time. to-wit: on the Sth day of November, 1892 the said Jas. ?. McAllister, under Par. 3S7 and Par. 454 R. S. of Arizona, was ineligible to the office of supervisor of said county, and whereas on Jan. ,, 1893, while this board was in session Jas. P. McAllister appeared before the board and stated that he was attend ing the meeting as a taxpayer and a citizen and did no. want himself recognized or identified ss member of the present board of supervisors and ked the chairman not to address or appeal to him in any manner or to any matters pertaining to the duties of supervisor, and therefore the name of Jas. P. McAllister, by his acts on the 9th day of January recognizing his ins Eligibility as supervisor under the law refused tC appear and partici pate and perform the duties oi super risor. which in the opinion os this board is equivalent to a resignation oi said office of supervisor by the said Jas. r. McAllister Therefore re- solved that by reason Of the law and the premises aforesaid it is hereby de- clared that there now exists vacancy ip the board of supervisors of Cochise county. Resolution was adopted.
 The evidence is to the effect that no proceedings were had by a com petent court of jurisdiction to deter mine the eligibility of James P. Me Allister, nor was the grand jury able to find that the then acting board of supervisors had any authority for ex- polling and removing from his office 8 county official who had been duly elected and had properly qualified, other than their construction of ths statutes.
 The grand jury have been unable to find any urittea resignation of hla office by J. P. McAllister, as provided for in Par. 10 of the K. $. of Arizona, nor that any event occurred. making his office vacant, as provided for ln Par 3lll and SIP of said Statutes.
 The grand jury finds further thai by an action oi the board of supervis- ors had in open session on the 4th day of February, 1893. said board passed a resolution employing counsel to de lend certain Of the then incumbent- oi the office of supervisor against the effort of Jas r. McAllister to maintain his claim to his seat in said board, that the district attorney had no' made any request to the board for as- sistant cJuasel and that the board had not notified the district attorney O the necessity of employing assistant counsel.
 The grand jury further determin, that the taxpayers should not ay counsel fees 10 d. end partie, filling offices to which hey may not have been properly elected or appointed.

Your committee appointed to look into the affairs of the sherifi's office beg to report:
 We find that all the money re- ceiyed by th3 sheriff for license is promptly turned over to the treasurer and that the books in his office are correctly kept. We find that the total receipts for licenses from the first day of January to the first day of May, 1893, amounts to S3l4O, for which he holds the treasurer's re- ceipt, less the per cent commission. We recommend that the sheriff be prompt in collecting licenses in ad- vance as the law requires and prohib- it's par ties from operating games with out s licenae. P. A LoFCaEEs.

BONDS oF coUS.Y OFFICERS.

On examination oi the bonds filed y tine various incumbents Of the county offices, we find that the county
 reasurer's bond aggregates the sum
 eighty-three thousand five hundred
 oilI1s, represented by nineteen sure ties, the assessed valuation of whose property as shown by .he assessment roll of Cochise county for the year 1892 is forty-two thousand one hun fred and sixty dollars. Tine difference between the assessed valuation of the property of these nineteen sureties and the amount for which they have qualified on the bond is forty-one thousand three hundred and forty dollars. Of these nineteen sureties only one appears to be assessed !or an amount equal to that for which he is on the bond. The names of two Of these sureties do not appear on the assessment roll for the year S92. One of these sureties appears 10 be non resident, and one i- filling the office of supervisor, which is contrary to Par. 30S0 Title 60 Chap. 9, R. s. or Arizona.

a Remind r.


In certain New England town the
"Orthodox" church was badly in need Of
repairs, plaster and paint being in q
most deplorable condition.
One of the deacons of the church was a
man whose chief fault seemed to be a
rooted dislike to parting with his money
in any cause whatever. He was applied
to to assist in the repairs Of the church
by contribution, and reluctantly gave a
small amount, saying that ''P'r'haps he
might see his way to putin little
more to it," later on.
The next night, during a committee
meeting which was held in the cdurch, a
piece Of plaster fell from the ceiling, and
glancing off the top OF the deacon's head,
went to the floor with loud crash.
The deacon brushed the pIastering from
his shoulders, rubbed his head and said
slowly, "I'll give another ten dollars
towards repairin' this meetin' house,"

his liberal neighbors humorously, "but

A SAD ACCIDENT.
VIM. WEIGH Killed by a Boiler Collapsing
at Weatherwax's Mill = Frank Levin,
Jacob Kyser and j. A. Cowden Hurt,

VIM. Welch Killed by a Boiler Collapsing
at Weatherwax's Mill = Frank Levin,
Jacob Kyser and j. A. Cowden Hurt.
Yesterday morning, just after Weather
wax's mill had started up, the inner
boiler OF the battery, the one nearest the
water, collapsed, blowing out both ends.
There was no one in the fire-room at the
time, except William WEIGH, the fireman,
who lost his life. Welchs father, who is
the engineer at the mill, was engaged
with some others, about rs feet from
the boilers, fixing belt, and William
stood at the door of the fire-room to take
the signals from his father, either to stop
or start the engine. Just before the ez-
plosion he went into the fire-room, and it
is supposed he was STOPPING down closing
one OF the drafts when it occurred. After
the explosion careful search was in
stituted. for Welch's body, but it could
not be found anywhere for the first half
hour. By that time the fire under the
boiler had died down sufficiently, and a
search was made there, revealing the
body of the poor fellow about six or seven
feet under the furnace, lying cross ways,
and so scalded and burned as to be I'M
recognizable. 1t will always remain a
mystery how he could have gotten there,
or his body could have been driven into
that position.
WEIGH was a young, industrious man,
26 years old, and leaves widow but no
children.
Jacob Kyser and Frank levin, two of
the teamsters at the mill, had their teams
under the shed and in range Of the bricks
and steam from the boiler at the time of
the explosion. Levin was struck in the
back by the flying bricks, and his team
becoming frightened, ran away and ran
over him. The doctors think he may be
injured internally, but not fatally. In
addition to his other injuries, he received
a bad scalp wound. Kyser's team also
became frightened, and struck him in
running away, hurting him badly but not
seriously. ]. A. Cowden, who was work.
ing up stairs in the lathe mill, was
scalded slightly by the escaping steam.
