The Examiners Worlds Fair odi-

The Examiners Worlds Fair edi-
 tion, consisting of 70 pages, was received here yesterday. Yavapai county and the city of Prescott appropriated $500 for a write up of this section. The space agreed upon was one page. The space, devoted to it, consists of a three and a half column description of the South Gila Canal company, located in some remote portion of
 the territory. This takes up just one-half of the page. In the bal ance of the page left for a descrip- ton of Yavapai's resources are found biographical sketches of Col. J. F. Wilson, A. G. Oliver and c. w. Culver, the portraits of the first two also appearing in it. After deducting the space devoted to the above subjects, which can be of no benefit whatever to Yavapai county, there is but little left to tell of our agricultural, mining or other re- sources. Even this little left contains subject matter which is totally inaccurate, SO that the $500 has been about as good as thrown away. Outside papers can always get hundreds of dollars, where dol lars would be denied to the local papers. The worst case of sell vet PerPetrated on the community has been this Examiner write up.

Southern territorial newspapers
 have recently told under startling
 head lines of another awful killing
 by Kid. On later date, the Citi- zen says: "William Emerson, the
 prospector supposed to have been killed by the party of Indians who attacked Hualpai Clark, walked into Mammoth camp Thursday. where he learned that he was sur. posed to have been killed bv Indians. The party who went in pursuit of the Kid, or whoever did the attacking, had not returned when latest reports arrived. Apropos of the ways of the Kid. and the exemption from harm he enjoys, it is told of him that a party of vaqueros on horseback were in some of the mountains of the terri tory when an Indian was seen coming, on horseback. Hello. here comes the Kid" remarked one of the men. Sure enough it was. The Indian never looked at his road but kept his eye on the cowboys. Across his saddle was a cooked Win chester. The party while no cow ards, and armed with six-shooters. knew better than to blaze away at him. The Kid would have dropped on the opposite side of his pony and shot with fatal results at his sssail- ants, had they so done.

Locality.
TO PREVENT A DOWNWARD TENDENCY
The Building Market Shows Signs

SOME IMPROVE NTS

The possibility that Mr.. Albaugh will not
be able to get a permit from the District
authorities for the construction Of theater
building on the site proposed, which is the
north side of II street between 14th and
18th streets, has developed the fact that
there are quite a number of other pieces
OF property in this immediate vicinity
which would be suitable for such pur-
pose 1t is generally understood that the
hrst requisite in selecting a location for
a new theater is its accessibility for the
people who patronize theaters. The chosen
site is believed to possess the necessary
qualifications Other pieces Of property
have been called to the attention of Mr.
Albaugh, SO that i'm case he feels in the
mood to go on with his project, even
though the city authorities will not allow
him TO build where he at first intended, a
site will not be lacking. The law gives
property owners the right to protest against
the erection Of a theater building in their
midst, and, of course. they can exercise
that right even though people who don't
own property in the same locality may
criticise their action.
1t depends very much, however. upon
what is the motive for the exercise Of the
right in opposing the erection Of such build

From the Philadelphia Times.
The English-speaking world will exper.
ience strange thrill at the news Of the
death of Mrs. Thackeray. Last Christmas
her husband had been dead thirty years.
She herself had been unconscious OF his
existence or his love, had been ignorant OF
his genius or what the world thought OF Il.
since early in their married life, upwards
OF fifty years. The insanity which was to
separate her from him fell upon her during
the Fraser days. and she probably never
knew of Vanity Fair or for once realised
Its authors fame. There is a touching story
10 the effect that her only pleasure was,
when Thackeray came to see her, to beat
him with her poor. harmless hands; and &c
seems 10 be fairly well authenticated that
once at least when a scandalous story was
told of his disappearance from London he
had been on a visit to the Lancashire vii
lage where she lived. She dies at seventy

INK. So mute SO sad and affecting, Her
death is, too. a theme above all others THAI
the great novelist would have found appeal
ing to his own melancholy. To have out
lived him so long-to be only the silenced
echo of the days of his poverty and disap-
pointment, during thirty years to have been
known TO be alive but by a few of his ola
friends-it seems as II one might say that
the news finished the chapter u Thack-

Bill For Permanent National

ter, of Virginia, Voices Pop

WASHINGTON, August 3l.-The
second days meeting ofthe South
ern Development convention begun
with large attendance. Mr.. w.
G. Vicenheller, state commissioner
of mining, of Arkansas, presented
conservative review Of the re-
sources Of that state and laid stress
upon the need of more railroads
for its development.
The report of the committee on
plan and scope, read by w. Sey-
mour White, of Virginia, provides
for permanent bureau in Wash
ington for the exhibition Of the re-
sources of southern states and for
general information on capital and
labor; expenses of the bureau to
be paid by pro rata contributions
from the states; also a sub
bureau in each state, through
which exhibits should be forwarded
to Washington, to be in charge Of
the commissioners of agriculture,
labor or immigration, who shall
verify all information filed with
the bureau. A small commission
would be allowed On sales made
through the bureau.
A committee Of one member of
each state and the District OF Co.
lumbia, was provided for, to be
appointed by the chair, to attend
the meeting to be held in Wash
ington, to which the governor of
each state be invited to perfect de-
tails of organization.
Another resolution Endorsed the
bill introduced in the Senate by
Senator Walsh for permanent ex-
hibit in Washington Of the re-
sources of all the states.
"a. Clayton, of Florida, held
that the plan to confer authority
upon the governors of the states
would give a political character to
the organization.
Robert w. Hunter, of Virginia,
sustained the report. When he
said the south did not expect to
build herself up in day; that she
did not care for what " as called
the "tide of immigration;" for
Poles, Hungarians and Anarchists,

Special to the LIGHT:
D'HANIs, Medina Co, Tex,
Aug. 81, 2 p. m.-This town was
visited by a most disastrous flood
early yesterday morning, in which
two of Mr.. Benedict Deckert's
children, aged and 8 years, lost
their lives.
The Seco river which rises in the
mountains north of here, but is
usually dry at this point, came
down in regular "Johnstown" fash
ion, sweeping everything before it..
The extent Of the damage cannot
possibly be ascertained at this
time. One of the children has not
yet been recovered.
People living on the banks Of the
river were rescued from the house
tops.
The railroad bridge, an iron
structure, was washed away.
Quite a number of families have
nothing left but the clothes they
escaped in.
1t is notthought that there was a
great number of stock persisted.
