Prisoners Make An Attempt to
 Escape.

An attempted outbreak occurred at the Territorial Prison, on the evening of Nov. 25th, last.
 During the usual evening lookup Mir. Shaw, the Asst. Superintendent discovered that four convicts, viz: No. S39, John Clay, No. 1O36; Juan A. Teniro, No. 1928, Henry Ferguson, and No 1924, Frank Armer, had va cated their respective cells and moved into cell NJ. 5, which is located in the east side of the cell-house, their object in doing this was that the situation of this cell is such that by digging through the masonary they would gain direct entry to the Prison Yard, Upon investigation a hole large enough to admit of the passage of mans body was found in the wall of this cell, there was also found four suits of clothing, the material used to make such being prison blankets, and also the tools they had taken from the blacksmith shop to work with.
 The last two mentioned of these four men, Ferguson, and Armer, made similar attempt to escape last quarter, by tearing down the partition between the dark cell and motor room, they gained admittance to the yard, but owing to the watchfulness of the night guards were soon discovered, and re- captured.
 No. S30, John Clay, was convicted in Maricopa County. in May, 1892, Of grand larceny, and sentenced to i've and two years under two indictments.
 No. 1O39, Juan A. Teniro, from Pinal county, March term 1895, sentenced to eight years for grand larceny.
 No. 1928, Henry Ferguson, from Maricopa County, October term 1894, and sentenced to five years for burg lary in the second degree.
 No. 1924, Frank Armer, from Pinal county, October term 1894, and sen- fenced to term of thirty years for train robbery.
 Owing to the character of these men being we'll known to the Prison Off, cials close watch has been kept upon them, and it is only by such vigil lance and watchfulness that their plan was frustrated.

In a Worthy Cause:

At the Convent on Main street several times a week in the even ing can be heard the sweet voices of a number of the young ladies of the Catholic Church singing to music the beautiful hymns in the play, en- titled, "The Shepherds" to be render ed by them on Christmas night.
 Arrangements are now being made for grand fair to take place when the entertainment is over, the pro- ceeds of which will be used to remove the old dirt roof from the Catholic Church and replacing it with 8 shingle one.
 The object is meritorious one and it is to be hoped that it will be we'll patronized and the needed amount will be raised.

Murdered.

Last Sunday evening Indiar Jim was pounded over the heaC
 with shAall stick of cordwood 1T
 the hands of Dan West and on tho following day died of the injuries inflicted.
 Another Indian was arrested fol the crime but later evidence wal produced which proved him inno cent and showed concIusively that Dan West had committed the deed by the testimony of Mir. Anthony who witnessed the crime.
 Justice Willis did not learn ol the crime until Monday night The following day he summoned a Coroner's jury and went to the scene of the crime to hold an in: quest, but on arriving at the little house just south of the Southern Pacific Company's reservoir, no Indian could be found. The Judge learned that his friends had re- moved him to the Cocopah camp, about one mile below the Quarter masters building on the bank of the Colorado river. On the arrival of the party at the Indian camp they were informed that the h. dian had gone where all good In- dians go--the happy hunting ground--and that he had been inn mediately cremated.
 The Indians pointed to a dying fire as evidence of the fact. After the Judge and jury had examined the coals and ashes and discovered in them several human bones they returned to the Court House and
 
 rendered verdict in accordance with the above facts.
 It was at this stage of the pro- ceeding that the Justice of the Peace discovered that the murder had been done on the military res- ervation and at once discharged West, giving as his reason for do- ing so that it was a United States case and that he had no jurisdic- ton in the matter.
 Court Commissioner Masterson issued a warrant for Vests arrest and he now is in jail awaiting a hearing before U. s. Attorney E.. E. Ellinwood of Tucson who is expected here Monday.
 From the evidence taken at the Coroner's inquest it was shown that West had been selling the h. dians whisky for some time and when the Indian met with the injuries that caused hie death he was drunk and wanted West to give him more whisky and on the latter's refusal he became ugly and West fearing for his life graeped the cordwood stick and dealt the Indian many blows over the head with the above results.

A SECOND SIBERIA.
That's What a Miner Says the Gold
 Gross Mining Camp Is.

To the Editor of the Arizona SEN.
 TINRL:
 | take the liberty of writing you 8 few lines to let you and the readers of the SENTINEL know the condition of the laboring classes employed at the Gold Cross mine.
 Well, sir, this company is known as the Gold Cross Mill and Milling Com pany, but I think and so will your readers, before I have finished, that this company should be called the "White Mans Slavery Company of California"
 The Company have no accommo- dations whatever for the poor miners of it's mill. The highest wages paid is $3 per day and they are com pelled to pay out of this $1 per day for board with the privilege of sleep ing on the hills, rocks or anywhere they can.
 The boarding house is conducted by Chinamen and is called the hog pen on account of the sloppy manner in which the meals are served and the extreme filthy condition of every thing in and around it, but what can one expectt from a Mongolian when everything is under their control in the boarding house.
 At the company's store they give their employees tickets amounting to $5. One can purchase whatever the store bas for sale with it. Oh, my, if you could only come out and see for yourself how the poor men get robbed of their hard earned money you could not help being convinced of the truthfulness of everything I have or may write.
 The goods in the store are of the poorest imaginable quality and are sold at the highest prices. Just think of the injustice of charging the poor miner for a common pair of shoes, that Jew would be ashamed to sell, for $4 per pair. Shirts that Uncle Jacob would throw away cost the miner $2.50.
 The employees are compelled to trade at the store as they receive no money until they quit work or are dis charged, and if they should send to Yuma for anything they would at once get their walking papers and those who are desirous of working for the Company must hold their tongue.
 Mir. Fuller is the Superintendent of the Company. He is the King of this little Slavery Kingdom" situated 30 miles from Yuma and seven from Ogilby on the Southern Pacific railroad in the fourishing state of California Not only do they deal with the workingmen in this way but with the whole community.
 Families and all other residents of MT. Fuller's Principality must trade at the store or take French leave.
 A resident physician is now per manently locate1 at the mines and the miners have to pay monthly $2 as doctors fees, and mind you the Company has not even shanty that they can call a hospital, and if any complaint is made against this out rageous assessment levied by. the Company the parties making them soon learn the results of their rash ness by their dismissal from the Company's service.
 I hope you will find space in the columns of the SENTINEL for this communication so that the public in general may learn of the hardships the miners of this camp are com pelled to undergo
 Yours truly,
 A MINER
