 Tempe News: The business of the Arizona Hardware company was today placed in the hands of President Frankenburg to secure a chattel mort gage held by the Farmers and Mer- chants bank. It is hoped thta the en- only temporary.
 Tombstone Prospector: A Mexican baile, held in the upper end of town last evening, was suddenly thrown into commotion when it became known that the tempting refreshments that had been prepared and were to be served at the convenient hour, had been stolen. Some of the boys had, with malice aforethought, deliberately made way with a pot of Mexican beans. An indignation meeting was held and, after passing resolutions denouncing such high handed clandestine proceed ings, resumed their dance.
 Tucson Citizen: A Chinese Masonic flag floated from the staff of their hall in Chinatown this morning. The flag was about ten feet long, triangular in shape, red center and deep white seal loped border. On the red center was a large Chinese character A small United States flag floated from the top of the pole and above the Chinese em- blem. On inquiry it was learned that the flag is the first of it's kind ever seen in Tucson, and was hoisted in com memoration of a Chinese Masonic holi day which is said to occur September g, Chinese reckoning, Christian October 25.
 Tucson Star: There is more quiet activity going on in the federal grand jury room than anywhere else in the country barring well regulated bee hives. Another report was made yes terday containing the following indict- ments: Robert Burton, for usurping the functions of the postofice depart ment of the United States by antici- pating the delivery of a letter which had been regularly consigned to some one else; against Bernardino Diaz stealing, taking and carrying away personal property and chattels of the United States, to-wit: One fort called Lowell, with a system of waterworks thereunto appertaining. Diaz is re- garded as a particularly dangerous person to the commonwealth. The United States is little short on forts anyhow, and if this peculiar thief is permitted to go unrestricted he will leave the government absolutely de- fenseless against foreign foes. An in- dictment was also found against Re fugia Patonino for receiving, cancel ing and selling property stolen from the United States, that is, he is accused of being proprietor of wholesale fence" through which forts are intro duced and sold at second hand David Pogue and Fannie Garcia were indicted for violation of the Edmonds act This is altogether a question of color and not morality, for the parties are married to each other. Pogue is re- puted to be white, but his wife is black beyond the widest dream of Aubrey Beardsley, the cratic genius in black and white. Burton is the colored man for shooting whom Thomas Johnson, also colored, the day before plead guilty to an assault with deadly weapon. Johnson, by the way, was sentenced yesterday to three years and he almost turned white. He has new story about the accident. He still admits that he drew the revolver but he says now that the discharge by which a ball was lodged in Burton's leg was purely accidental.
