The Deadly EIohaye Desert.

A party of cattlenlen out on the Mohave desert recently came across the trail of two men and two bur ros. The aimless zigzag course of the trail showed that those whohad made 1t were lost, and the cattle men at once set cut to find them. Here and there along the path taken by the wanderers holes of from 5 to , feet in depth had been dug in the dry sands. Late in the evening the cattlemen came uponsa young man lying under mesquite bush, beside a hole dug six feet in the sand mur- muring in delirium and the point of death. He lad been without water more than tree days and had lain down to die. A mile further on they overlook an old man, who delirous, was crawling on hls hands and knees to a pool of bracklsh water, beside which stood-the two burros. The burros, being released when he gave up. had found thelr way to the water, and the old man had followed them in a last des- pairing burst of strength. The two men were miners who had lost their way a week before. Both men re- covered after few days of care at the ranch, but mummihcd corpses and bleached bones. often met in the desert, tell of many travellers who similar experiences have nc such happy ending.-NIesa Free | Press.

ployed by Kelly & Jones, steam-fit- ters of that city, He is thirty-two years of age and fine looking fel low. His relatives live in New York. Two months ago his work ing partner, Robert Watson, fell down the Schneider flats elevator shaft and was instantly killed and in this building, and those now wor&ing there are constantly afraid that some accident will happen to them, although everything about the building is as safe as can be. The flats are thirteen stories and 160 feet high, so that Deale's fall was fully 145 feet, and perhaps more.
 The accident happened,at 1 40 o'clock, and just at the moment Albert Clinton, a steam filter, who is working on the new seminary at Forest Glen, Md, and who is an in- innate friend of Dealc, happened to be passing, Clinton took charge of the man and will look after him un- til the soreness of his back leaves, which will be but a few days, unless unlocked for complications arise.

Kid Thompson, the Roscoe train robber, is in jail in this city, brought in last night from Tonto Basin by a watchful and heavily armed party of typical cowboys. With him was brought in his boyish confederate, Colonel" Hopper.
 The>story of their capture is an exciting one as told by Will Moore, of Reno Mountain, the leader of the cowboy party. = His home is at the very gate of Tonto Basin, at the bottom of the famous Reno Pass He had been warned to be on the lookout for the two fugitives, and was informed as 10 their appear ance,
 Tuesday morning he learned while at a neighbor's that two sus- picious customers had taken break fast there and had gone on overthe mountain, taking the pass road into Tonto Basin. Moore secured the assistance of young Ivy Crabtree and succeedrd in passing the fugi- tives unperceived and lay in wai' for them at fayorablel spot neal his home.

Sn0t By ApaClleS.

Word was brought in last night from the San Bernardino ranch that a cowboy whose namesou inform ant did not remember had been shot through the shoulder.
 He was riding through Guadu- lupe canyon, when volley was fired from behind some rocks. His horse became unmanageahle and dashed off on his own hook, which saved his life. He looked toward the direction of the firing and saw several Indians, who, when he reel ed in the saddle, thought, no doubt that he was done for, and exposed themselves to view.
 The wounded man managed tC get to the San Bernardino ranch where lie was cared for. The shoot ing happened on Friday morning and the Indians did not move way but were seen by their camp fire. at night higher up in the mountains It is believed that they will mak, their headquarter this winter un, molested unless a company of civil ians should arrange to capture th the Kld's scalp. who is no doub one Of the numher -proenectcr.

A TERRIBLE FALL.
Albert DeaIe, a Steam-litter, Falls Che Hundred and FOrty-fiVc Feet Without Seri-
 GUS Injury.

Albert Deale, steam filter, fell from the eleventh story of the new Schneider flats to the basementyes- terday afternoon and escaped with out injury says ithe Washington Post. At the ground floor the small of his back struck heavy beam, which makes his escape the more marvellous.
 Deale fell from a freight elevator down the shaft. A sudden catch of the ropes caused the elevator to lurch, causing him to be thrown head first from the platform, which is less than half as wide as the shaft, The man was thrown with considerable force and turned three or somersaults as he shot down to the around. Two or three times his head grazed projecting iron beams. Over and over he went, and as he struck the beam, after the drop of 145 feet, the force of the blow caused him to bound back two or three feet. Then he fell to the cellar, limp and apparently dead.
 Several workmen on the first floor. who had heard Dcale strike the beam, ran into the basement ex- pecting to find their friend uncon- scious and mangled, if not actually dead. As they approached Deale, he got up, looked dazed for mo- ment, then said slowly, as if he could hardly find breath:
 "I-fell-off-the- elevator"
 The men lifted him and he start ed to walk, but after two or tbret steps he became deathly sick and sank to the ground unconscious His friends thought he was dying from the shock, and ran for a doe tor and a priest. Dr. Weaver re- turned with the men and fount !Deale recovering rapidly, only com plaining of bad pain in his back A hasty examination showed tha no bones were broken. There was bruise where he had struck tn beam, but the skin was not lacer ated. The sickness resulted iron l extreme fright and dizziness cause , by the lightning-like drop throug } the air

 The horses they rode were the same on which they had covered many hundreds of miles in eluding the dozen officers actively on their trail. Both. belonged to Thompson, one of them, a gray mare, branded 3 on the right shoulder, having been raised by Chlub Watkins, one of the captors. It had been traded
 for at the head of the Arizona canal by Thompson. The other was q bay mare branded "C."
 Their flight from Phmnix had led
 them to the Arizona canal head, thirts miles, thence went 10 Agua

FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER.

A number of Geo. Ponds friends
have been pressing him to become a
candidate for county commissioner,
and we understand that he has con-
sented to make the run, if nominated.
Mr.. Pond is American born, and re-
moved to this city thirteen years ago,
from Sioux City, and has been en-
gagged in the clothing business ever
since. He served as an alderman for
four years, with credit. He has always
been staunch Republican, and is in
the harness whenever there is any
work to be done for the ticket. He is
an excellent business man, and would
fill the office of county commissioner
in a satisfactory manner. This is a
more important office than many peo-
pie suppose, and the member from the
city should be level headed, eX-
perienced business man. If nOmi-
mated, Mr.. Pond would conduct an
active and winning campaign.
