THERE'S A BOOM SURE.
The Mines of the North Are
 All Right.
General Churchill Visits Many Of Them and Reports ACtlV-
 ity Everywhere.
From the Prescott Courier.

From the Prescott Courier.
 Gen. Clark Churchill, of Phoenix, who resided in this section for years, and is familiar with our mining dis trlcts as they appeared then, has just returned from three days trip, dur ing which he visited the head of Lynx creek. the Hagsayampa, Slate creek and Maple gulch. all in the mineral belt immediately south of Prescott, aLd expresses himself agreeable sur. prised at the great activity in mining matters he found generally prevalent.
 In every district mining in all its stages could be seen side by side, the placer miners working in the gulches with pans, rockers and sluices, wl4ils on the surrounding mountains were quartz claims ranging from the freshly located and partially developed to those piled with milling and shipping ore new claims were being staked off and prospecting for still undiscovered claiml gave employment to quite number O. men.
 The general stated that if the mint owners did not stand in their own light by asking fabulous prices for their par tially developed prospects, good timer were sure to prevail to considerable ex tent in Prescott ant vicinity in the nea future. He is interested in Has savampa district himself and his minini motto is that when any person wishel to work a mIne that person should be permitted to do so, If possible. Speaking of water supply for Pres colt, he said that such supply coule be run in by gravitation from Banning creek. This water theory has been ad yanced by others and there is littl' doubt but what Banning creek would supply the town wholly for six monthl in the year, and in connection with tn, Goose Flat pumping plant. would sup ply it for the remaining six, but thu water would have to run through . covered piping, as if exposed, the sum mer sun would lick half of It up il l that distance.

WANT TO PLAY BALL.

Flagstaff and Tucson. From the Tucson Star.
 The local ball club has received let ter from Flagstaff, offering to play 2 game of ball if $500 stake be put up, the game to be played in Flagstaff. The Tucson club will meet at 80 this even ing at Drachman's. It is thought that the club here will accept the terms but demand that the game be played either here or both clubs go half way and play it in Phoenix, If the game comes of, as it in all probability will, it will be well worth attending, as both clubs are buse ball players of no mean ability, and the lovers of the National game may look for treat.

He Will Not Be Hanged
 for the Present.
Decision Reversed in the Juana
 Walker Case.
A Writ of Certiorari for .he Removal of Receiver McMillan of the
 Peoria Canal Denied.

Jose Maria Sortillon, who is now confined in the county jail under een- tence of death, has been granted a new lease of life; in other words he will not be hanged, for yesterday Judge Kibbey was notified by telegraph from his partner, M. H. Williams, that the su- preme court at Prescott had reversed the decision of Judge Baker in the Sortillon case and that a new trial had been granted the accused. When Judge Kibbey received the news he hastened to the jail and told the wei. come tidings to Sortillon. The pris. oner was visibly affected, for over year he had stood in the shadow of the gallows.
 In the month of November, 1892, on the reservation near Yuma the 1 day old child of and Indian woman named Guerre was buried alive. Sorti.lon was arrested for the crime. Some months later true bill was returned against the prisoner by the United States grand jury sittiug in this city. When his case came up for trial the jury failed to agree and the prisoner was remanded back to jail until the May term of court of the following year, when the case was again brought up for trial. At the second trial he was found guilty of murder as charged in the indictment and Judge Baker sentenced him to be hanged on July 27. Ai appeal WAS cake. to the supreme court by Judge Kibbey on the grounds that the court had erred in in- structing the jury with regards 10 the testimony of A. Frank, the mayor of Yuma and brother.in-law of the de- fendant. The instructions on that point were in cautioning the jury to weigh carefully the testimony of that witness.
 Judge Kibbey scored another point in the case of Juana Walker, the h. dian girl, who contested the will of John Walker. the millionaire, claiming to be his daughter. The decision re- verses that of the lower court and the estate reverts to brother of John Walker.
 | A caove was made too. in the Peoria canal litigation. A telegram was re-. ceived here by Attorney Armstrong re. presenting Receiver McMilIan, stating that an application for writ of a certiorari bringing up the approval of the receivers bond and the refusal of District Clerk Walker to declare the office vacant, for review. The object of this writ was to take shorter cut for the receivers removal. Application by c. F. Ainsworth, was made in the Crowley interest, week ago to Judge Hawkins for an order directing the writ to issue but he declined, referring the matter to the whole court.
 The telegram announcing the denial of the writ was very brief and con- tained no mention of the grounds upon which it was based. It is supposed here that the court believed that the former writ issued at the instance of the Gila Bend people on the order of Judge Rouse involved in another form the matter presented in the writ which has been denied.
 The judgment of Judge Baker was also reversed in the suit appealed from his court which was against the bonds men of ex-Sherif Gray and in favor of Daniel Noonan. in the sum of $16,000. The case was sent back for new trial.

 Mrs. McNair brought the ax and handed 1t to the executioner. He took careful aim, at the same time taking care to keep out of reach of the snake's fangs. The range was too long and the aX missed the snake about, so far as MT. McNaIr afterward indicated, the discrepancy on his finger.
 Again he raised the ax and brought it down on the snake amidships. Then more careful examination WAS made and the snake turned out to be small branch of tree.

 SAN FRANCISCO, July 31.-Theodore Durrant was this morning taken from the county jail in the regular prison van instead of driving in the sheriff's buggy. This prevented pedestrians following and avoided general notice which the sheriff considered bad for the prisoner. The new venlre of jurors was on hand for an examination though>a majority sought an excuse on some pre- text or another. After hard morn ing's work, however, two additional jurors were selected and sworn to try the case; Nathan Crocker, broker, and M. R. Dempster, commission mer. chant, were the two additional jurors.

While in Wichita some days ago we
heard a story on the Hon. Jerry Slump,
son that takes the cake. At certain
store on Douglas avenue, the proprie-
tor of which is a pOpulist, was gath
cred a crowd of four or FIVE who were
discussing the qualities of Mr.. Long,
who is supposed to represent the peO-

something derogatory to Mr.. Long
when one of the crowd, who is a
"redeemer, spoke up and said: well,

know he won't do what Jerry Simpson

son had done, he said; why, when a
certain bill was up he voted for it in
the house IN the forenoon, and in the
afternoon went over to the senate and

WE ask the HUTCHINSON GA
zETTE If its charge was true that there
was steal of 20 per Centin the county
printing last year, what was your com
missioner, McElwain doing when tie
steal was made? Don't the GAZETTE
have gumption enough to know that
Mr. McElWain could have exposed Il Q
matter and prevented it if he wanted
to? The charge of the GAZETTE is
false or else its commissioner was in
the deal. Will the GAZETTE answer?
-NickersOn Argosy.
Who said it was a stealP 1t was
openly done, nor could it be classed as
highway robbery, but rather as useless
expenditure Of the peoples money.
The GAZETTE offered to do the work
for the county, at rate, that would
have saved the taxpayers $500. AS
for Mr.. McElwin, you, Mr.. Hendry
was standing at the counter in the
clerks Office when old man Fleming
took holland into the vault and set
tied everything. You remember as
we'll as we when Old Alphabet moved
that the work be let to the Hutchinson
News, and that the Interior Herald be
gwen 20 per cent Of the profits and
also that Mr.. McElwain offered an
amendment that the work be let to the
lowest bidder. You heard holland
put the amendment and you also
heard Fleming vote no, which was
followed by like vote from holland.
Mr.. McElwain voted to let the work
to the lowest bidder, and against let |
ting it to the News. Mr.. MELVIN |
is all right, Hendry. AS for the bid
we made, Mr.. McElwain. still holds
the same and e will be will submitted |
to the county commissioners at the Jan.
uary meeting. II the people want $500
saved on the county work, let them
turn on election day and vote Mr..
Hacker. If they are SO interested in
maintaining gold bug republican by a
useless expenditure Of 20 per cent. of
the peoples money without any
equivalent, let them vote for Rutledge.
He is the ring candidate and will be as
mud In the hands of old man Fleming.
For our own enllghtmenS, you Hendry,
may tell us how one man could
prevent two men passing any motion
over his head.
