A HmTEla Indian Serving a life
 Sentence Passes Away,

Joseph Homer, full blooded Yuma Indian, and whose Indian name is Zu Yu Grow, walked into the SENTINEL office one day this week in company with several of the Yuma Indian tribe and handed the editor dispatch which read as follows:
 SAN QUENTIN, July 1, 1894 Joseph Homer.
 Yuma, Ariz.
 Mo Jan Qua de yer, died this morning of heart failure. Two other Indian boys well.
 w. E. HALE,
 Warden San Quentin Prison.
 On the night of December Sth, 1890, Churiatch, a medicine man of the Yuma Indians died of la grippe. During his sickness he was attended by Buchawike, an Indian famous for his skill in the medical profession. On the fol- lowing Wednesday night, Bucha- wike was found most cruelty and brutally murdered. On examina- tion nearly every bone in the mur- dered mans body was found broken. Friends of the dead man claimed that he had been killed by the relatives of Churiacth, who said he was a witch and had caus- ed his death by witchcraft.
 Mo Jan Qua de yer, Ham de sa Ia mu and Gnu Bue en U were ar rested for the murder shortly after and taken to Los Angeles for trial. The were arraigned in that city the following September on a charge of murder in the United States Court, and though they plead not guilty the jury brought in a verdict of murder in the first degree and Judge Ross sentenced them to be hung. Later President Harrison commuted the sentence to life i'm prisonment.
 The father and mother of the dead Indian came into the office @ few weeks ago and said they had been told their son was dead, and wished us to write the prison officials which we did. In due time an answer from the Warden came, stating that he was alive and well.
 Poor old Jose, the name which the father is familiarly known by, and his wife are the most intelli- gent looking couple that we have seen among the Yuma tribe, and though only Indians one cannot help noticing the deep sorrow de- picted Tn the countenance of the aged father and mother, and feel the profoundest sympathy for this couple in their bereavement.

OFFICE OF THE BOARD OF PRISON COMMISSIONERS.

Yuma, Ariz., July 17, 1894.
 To Hon. L. c. Hughes, Governor.
 We take pleasure in reporting to you for the second term in the present year that a further reduc- tion in the cost of maintaining the Territorial penitentiary has been made. In fact during the past quarter ending July 1st, the cost has been reduced to a minimum, being less gross and less per capita than for any quarter during the history of this institution.
 There has been a large increase in the number of prisoners during the quarter, which brings up the problem of increasing the number of cells and still keeping down the expense; we believe this can be done with the material on hand in the shape of rock which has been dressed during the winter.
 We have listened to the applica- tions of thirty-six prisoners for pardons and communications of sentence and recommend the pard- on of two to save citizenship and one, Chinaman, whose case was brought forcibly to our attention by Judge Sloan, the Judge who sentenced him.
 We beg to call your attention to our inability to arrive at a proper understanding of the eases of those applying for pardons and con- mutations; many prisoners are sent for ten years for crime that others serve but year for.
 Many ignorant Mexicans and Indians are here for long terms who pleaded guilty to crimes from force of circumstances by which they were surrounded, ignorant of the penalty that would be in ficted.
 We suggest that authority be given to the Commissioners by Legislative enactment, if not pos sible under existing laws, to look into the many urgent cases by personal investigation at the seats of government of the several coun- ties.
 It is to furnish home for large Mexican element that the cost of this institution is such a heavy one.
 We refer you to the report of the Superintendent, Assistant Superin- tendent, and Physician for a more extended account of the work ac- complished during the quarter and l wish to again testify to the pains taking and efficient work of these gentlemen and the Secretary.
 We believe that the guard service cannot be improved upon.
 No small part of the praise for the record of the past quarter, is due to their interest in the institu- ton.
 Most respectfully submitted.

AMERICANS ABROAD.

In many respects the United States
of America is the foremost nation on the
globe. In population, in wealth, in pro
ductiOn, in the practical illustration Uf
free government, in her public school
system and in many other things she is
the pride and glory of the close of the
nineteenth century.
Notwithstanding all this, il is fact
that the citizens Of this country, when
either for pleasure or profit they journey
TO foreign climes they are not at all times
treated with the consideration and re-
spect that Is vOuehsafed to tourists and
travellers hailing from other countries.
We can understand the prejudice ell
tertained by the effete monarehies Of the
Old w9rld against "A republican form of
government, bat it is hard to conceive
why our sister republic of Mexico should
harbor q reyengful spirit towards the
people of the United States, but it is
nevertheless a fact. Two or three eases
of recent occurrence have been published
In which gross injustice has been done
TO American citizens whose duties called
them TO Mexico aud it is high time that
our government should make itself
respected abroad
Americans abroad are heartily tired
of the policy Of the United States in
matters of this kind and long for that
protection, tO which by every law, both
human and divine, they are entitled.
