A TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.
Jose Borronda Cuts a Woman's
 Throat and His Own.

On Friday morning last, at about o'clock, Jose Borronda cut French Mary's throat and then severed his own Juglar vein with razor, in back room of Salvador's saloon at Clifton.
 Borronda died instantly but French Mary is still alive-the razor not having reached the iuglar vein-she is cut, however, from ear to ear.
 B rronda had been keeping the woman for two or three years, and the night before the tragedy they were both drunk, and expressing a desire to get married in the presence Of one H. A. Dorsey, and quit their mode of living, he at once volunteered to act the part of a minis CT and perform the marriage cere- mony. They assented, thinking 1t per fectly proper and legal, and Dominic Dorsey proceeded with the ceremony, and thus farcically, 1.-two hearts were made to beat as one." They spent the night together in back room of the aforementioned saloon and the next morning, about o'clock, French Mary walked into the barIoom and went to drinking with another man. Borronda soon followed, gong into the barroom also. He appeared to be excited, and he and the woman returned to the room She says that when they reached the room Borronda said to her: We are now married and you are my wife, and still you persist in running after other men. propose now to kill you and my self too," whereupon he pulled out a razor from one of his pockets and the result was as stated above.
 Borronda had been working for the Copper company for B years and was yell liked. Bulletin.

IT WAS A FAKE.
A SensatoniaI Story Denied by 8
 Responsible Paper.

According to a statement which ap- pears m the daily papers, Capt. r. Stanley, of Silvertop, Col, and party of prospectore, while prospecting in what is known as Devils Gulch, in tte old Spanish copper canyon, New Mex ico. last week, found the skeletons Of a comDany of soldiers that hand been mis- sig rom Fort Marcy since the Apache riaG on Espinosa, Sept. 1879. 1t was supposed they had been massacred by the Indians, as not one ot the forty three ever returned, but it seems they all must have drunk from the poison ous Verdigris Spring, where their skele- tons have lain for the last thirteen wears. Forty-three skeletons, some of them still incased in uniform; three niles of guns, stacked as they had left them. a lot of ammunition, and the skel- etons of forty-fve horses were found. This is a very interesting story, but as a m alter of fact the records Of the War Department fsil to show any casualties of The character herein described. to.

The City Council.

The city council met last night and took up the general order of business.
 It was reported that MT. Bashford would not take less than 5000 for the alley back of the new Bruer block and the city attorney was ordered to com mence proceedings of condemnation.
 In reference to the Chinese petition that had been handed in at the last meeting, the Council was unable to make any move because the city attor- ney declared that an acton to remove the Oelestials would be unconstitutional.
 The Council requested F. Maish to pay the widow of Policeman Elliott the SEQ back salary that he had withheld.
 The Council passed an ordinance to the effect that prisoners be compelled to work on all public improvements.
 The Tucson Gas company offered to light the city for s125OO per month and the matter was referred to the street committee.

umph of modern industry and a mag
 nlficent monument of the admirable
 Gisinteredness and solicitude of the
 Copper Queen management.
 The Copper Queen mine has fre-
 quently besn pronounced by wide travel
 CTS and competent critics the finest in
 the world. One thing IS certain that the character of the ore IS superior to that of the Lake Superior region in that it is more easily mined. It Is susceptible to
 blasting, breaks with comparative readi- ness and therefore carried to the surface with much greater convenience than that of the North which, while tre- quently more sOlidly metal, Is as a conse- quence very difficult of dislodgment and transportation to daylight. As both bave to be smelted into bars the supe- riOr desirability of the Arizona product IS palpable.
 1t IS refreshing after having visited silver camps stsgnant from the condition of the silver market to come upon a thriving and prosperous settlement like this where copper IS queen. Five hun dred miners drawing S3-5O day, which is rate Of wages unsurpassed in the Territory if equalled, has ensured a fair degree of prosperity. That the people arc comfortable is evinced by their cosey little homes on the mountain sides ranged above each other like shelves on whatnot, and by the numerous little gardens and flower plats which are certain indications of a settled, home like sentiment.
 It IS at night however, perchance by that Bisbee attains the height of it's picturesGueness and sp- pearan ce of romsnticism.
 From the great smelter comes the sub dued roar of machisery. The electric lights gIisten numerously like gems in the semi darkness. Anon a furnace door is opened revealing ths immense bright, red bed of glstening coke fire within. Like the steady, regular throt of healthy human pulse come the puff, puff, ceaselessly night and day from the powerful steam engine. Straight col umns of thick, black smoke shoot up from the tall chimney for few hundred feet and sail of majestically in dense clouds nor yet reach the height of the somber mountains Half past II o'clock and whistle blows and a bell rings. A shift gees of duty, each man to his canyon depth or mountain side abode. Another shift is ready to go on and keep up the intending toll. And so Bisbee 1ourisheth. FLORENCE J. O'BRIEN.

UNIQUE BISBEE.
Down in the Bottom of a Long
 Canyon.
There Is Not Straight Street in the Place and Cliffs Tower Above
 on all Sides.

Whether considered geologically, in- dustrially, or as you will, it is different from anything most people have visited. First there is the town itself. Deep down in long canyon, with mountains towering abruptly 800 feet high all around, with its red adobe houses, it's red stone fences, it's dark red company buildings, everything closely and irregu- lsrly huddled together with no pretense to straight street, it presents an indi- viduality as town the like of which cannot be found.
 Then there is the company, the great Copper Queen Consolidated Mining company, who have tunnelled and shsfted and drifted the mightlest moun- tain of copper which overlooks the town until they have made an underground city, with numerous narrow winding streets, and populated them with pros porous army of sturdy miners, and whose present prosperous condition Is in no way more surely attested than in their conservative philanthropy.
 As evidence of the latter there is the immense copper Queen store where everything is sold from a chicken to cbair It does business of over S30,000 every month, and pays it's 16 or IT en- plOyees salary intoto of .SlS,OO0 aver aging over s100 to each monthly. Ninety eight per cent. of ths 600 employees besides their wives and families trade at the company store, not because they are compelled or coerced in any way but because merchandise of every 6escrip- tion is sold at as low figure as is con sistent with meeting current expenses and making slight profit. Everything IS bought for cash and advantage IS taken of every possible discount. An account therefore of the extent of the business and it's philan thropic manage ment it is absolutely i'm poss ble for small individual storekeepers to con- pete. The managers of the enterprise are asked by stockholders from time to time what per cent. profit they are charging upon certain articles and fre- ouently recommended to reduce the rate.
 The company owns it's own railroad of some 56 miles and transportation over 1t daily except Sunday carloads of coke mail, passengers and besides its own freight, that of the public at the moder- ate rate of 15 cents per hundred pounds ip carload lots.
 Then there is the magnificent con- pany library of which every periodical of any importance or merit In Arizona is provided for the people of the town free of charge, also all the prominent monthly magazines, weekly illustrated papers and every ything of merit from all over the country in the periodical line without regard to expense besides 8 splendid assortment of books of science, fiction,

A GOOD COUNTRY.
H. R. Patrick's Opinion 0
 Sonora.
The Stories About the Indian Out breaks There Are all Canards, He
 Says.

H. R. Patrick of Phoenix, who has been for the past year and half in Sonora, Mexico, arrived in the city last evening. He has been during that tune chief engineer of the Sonora and Sinalos Irrigation Co.,, with headquarters near the town of Concorit. His expenence there enables him to speak accurately of existing conditions both with reference to the Yacqui Indians of whom so much has been heard lately and of the possi- bilities of that country as field of in- vestment.
 The report, he says, which was spraHd last summer that 30,OO0 Yaqui Ind ms had broken out and were plllaging he whole country was utterly without foundation. h the first place there is no record of more than 15,OOO Yaouis ever having existed at any one time, md the total number of them now is far iess than that. There was no extensive out- break and he believes the story to have been started by enemies of the irrIga- tion project as it reached New York City the vice-president, was there and upon the point of influciRg the investment of large amount of capital which was thereby temporarily held back, tele- grams from the governor and other C.li- cials having been required before cor fi- dence was restored.
 MT. Patrick says, however, that inc Yaquis are savage, war-like race and well armed, that they do not hesitate 10 kill, rob and burn when there is gCOd plunder to be had and when they can catch theIr victims unaw8res. On Jau IL ary p last band of about 40 of them made every preparation to surprise and plunder his camp of about 100 mn. The Indians had knowledge of the fact that the men of the irrigation company had but dozen rifles among them. T intended attack of the Yaquis WAS learned by some of the outer can D patrol and all possible precaution for la fense We're made. When the Indii IS found there could be no surprise they withdrew.
 The people of Mexico are not clamor- ing very badly for the extinction or su b. jugation of the Yaquis for the reason that the;r existence calls for an numer- ous soidiery which is kept up by the government and from whom the rancheros in town derive their main support. There has been for two sea- sons past a greater scarcity of water than for many years. The upper Yaqli river has been entirely dry which tLe oldest Indians say never happened be- fore. The owners of ranches have been compelled instead of increasing the'r herds to gradually kill them off one by one for their own subsistence.
 MT. Patrick has nevertheless so much confidence that money may be profitaby lnves ed m that country that he will take trip east this summer with refer- ence to securing the interest of capital ists. He says there are very rich mines of both gold and silver in the Bacatete mountains, and that with the completion of the great canals of the company by which the Yaaui and Mayo rivers are both tapped, thousands of acres of mag niflcent land will be made cultivable.
 In Homosillo for several weeks past the weather has been uncomfOrtsbly hot.

Garfield called Albany "The birth place of American Union" because at convention led by Benjamin Fran kiln of representatives of the Colonies plan of confederation was prepared in l153, which 20 years later was so closely fol- lowed as to entitle it to that name.
 The Governor of New York and Vir- ginia in 1884 concluded a permanent place in this town with theI roc lois tribs, In 1884 a trading post was e. ab lished at Castle Island by the D. ch, just below the present site of the city. In 1923 Fort Orange was built were Albany now stands. The name vas changed in 1644 to Albany, after James the II. For 30 years following the Revolution this was the seat of the entire trade of the western porticn Of New York State. The produce being brought in winter by sleighs. Albany became the State Capital in 1797.
 The Erie Canal terminates here which connects the Hudson River with Lake Erie. Governor Morris prophesied con- cerning the Erie canal in 1797. "Shall I lead your astonishment up to the verge of credulity? will know thew, that one tenth part of the expense born by Britain in the last campaign (against Bonaparte) would enable Ships to sail from London through the Hudson River into Lake Erie" which made some think he bad some wild ideas. In 1919 the first boat was floated on it De- tween Rome and Utica having ou boa d the bGovernor and other dislinguis ed people In 1895 the completion Of ne canal has commemorated with magni ficent celebration.
 This city is a large reailroad center and has the largest lumber trade in the State.

The new Grace Episcopal church was dedicated with appropriate exercises yesterday and nearly every church mem Der in town was there.
 The little house of worship was not quite fOished but it was nicely deco rated with flowers and wreaths and pre- scented very pretty appearance.
 As iJ was Faster Sunday the services %ere, of course, of very elaborate nature. The musical programme was splendid and all the members of the choir did their best to make the occasion success.
 The Knights Templars attended the services in body and were given seats near the pulpit.
 The church was crowded and many were compelled to stand up.
 The Rev. Dr. Githens preached ser mon that was strong and appro! riate to the day and the occasion. He also gave the congregation few parting words as it was the last time he would speak in this town from the pulpit. He will leave ton ght for New Mexico.
 The church which was dedicated yes terdsy is the fulfillment of the Episco- palian's wishes that they have been longing for for years.
 The erection of the edifice is really due to the efforts of the Ladies' Guild which has been at work with that object Tn view ever since 1880. These ladies have devoted themselves to the work and have raised nearly all the money necessary to get the edifice to its present stage.

The first meeting of the building com mittee was held on October 2, 1890. Following are the names of those who composed ii: l.. D. Mansfield. president; J. M. Ormsby, secretary H. D. Under wood, treasurer; J. K. Gooding, B. w. Tichenor and pr. Goodwin and Mes danes Pomeroy, Dyer, Burkhalter and Miss Frye.
 The plans selected were those of G. Harold Mansfield and the estimated cost was $500. In December of 1890 the work of construction was commenced and the walls and roof finished and left. They remained ln that condition until about a month ago when men went to work and brought it to is present stage of completion. About s1,0OO more are necessary to finish the structure.
 The last building committes was con- posed If Chas. R. Drake, F. A. Gully, Thos. T. Wilson and s. w. Franklin.
 The building Is a sort of modified English gothic style of architecture that is at once pleasing and appropriate. It is constructed of soft grey stone quar- ried out of the Tucson mountains, a short distance from town.
 The dImensiens of the floor are 36x56 feet with IF feet taken off for the chan eel and pulpit. The windows are of cathed rai-stained gla 8 and the roof of natural timbers. The walls are finished in rough plaster tinted soft grey. The seating capacity will be 196 when the pews are put in.
 There will be IA electric lights placed in the building.
 The completion of Grace church marks an epoch in the history of Tucson. It gives beautiful house of worship to the Episcopallaus and also gives Tucson her first building with any claims to architectural beauty.
