THE Phoenix Herald in speaking oi the attempt Of Graham county 10 test the validity of the railroad exemption tax law says: The people of Graham county would commend themselves as a progressive and deserving people should they cease their attempts to harrass and retard, perhaps destroy the first railroad that penetrates their agricultural lands and promise to make rich and productive region oi the whole upper Gila valley, besides giving access 10 the important mining localities waiting development in tha, section Of the Territory, but which never will be developed till the railroad makes it profitable"

A play is on the boards in Los An geles theater entitled Black Sheep. I he Herald says the farce itself, like other Hoyt isrces, has just enough of a story to it to hold It together. The first and last acts are distinctly the best, and the former, laid in the bar room oG hotel ID Tombstone .Arizons, is full of local color, clever business, funny situations ard unique lines. William De We're, as the editor Of the Tombstone Inscription, was an- other brilliant bit of color in the first act. His unisiling habit of drinking before writing and the manner of ac- quiring his drinks must be seen to be appreciated; likewise his cheerful habit of going gunning for delinquent sub scribers, and one of his brief but pithy editorials that he rea1 aloud was an epic, and convinced even the unnamed Hot Stuff that even New YorK, alive, was better than Tombstone lead.

A FINAL settlement of the Blythe estate in San Francisco, is about to be reached, after twelve years Of liiiga- tion, says San Francisco exchange. The four million dollars left by the old man will be subjected 10 8 multiplica- ton, subtraction and division almost unheard of in the annals of legal iuris- prudence. The lowest estimate oi attorneys fees in the case will sggre- gate Sl 100000. Of this amount one man will cart home S4S0,000, another firm $3;0,000, and so on. But not withstanding these enormous drains or the estate there will still be some thing left for ,he successful liligsnt, Blythe's daughter Florence, Now Mrs. HiDkley. That the attorneys should be willing 10 quit with so mu,h yet ID sight is explained on the hypothesis that their fees were already too large 10 jeopardize by further delay. Better this, however, than have the property escheat to the state, as was threatened less than a year ago.

\ STRANGE INDIVIDUAL.
Who Calmly Says He is Christ on His SecOT d Visit to
 Earth.

Frank A. Hare our. yesterday arrived in Phoenix from Albuquerque, New Mexico, and tl Republican reporter he stated tha, Albuquerque has been Tn A state of great excitement for some weeks past over a strange individu al who is either from the other world or else a luDatic, more likely the latter would about it the case. The il di- yidual referred 10 calls himself FrancIs Schlader, the healer The people of Albuquerque were prone to look upon the man as a rank fraud when he first appeared in the city, but DOW the sem timent is divided as to whether the man is crazy or some departed mortal returned 10 earth.
 This healer has done some remark able things in the way of affecting cures for those afflicted with any dis ease no matter of what character.
 He will not receive money from anybody and gets insulied if any at temptis made 70 r,muneratc him for his cures. He docs not need money for bodily con forts because on the last thirty eight days he has subsis,ed entirely On fTe-h air, but tomorrow being his fCriieth day he will become a morta! as far as eating more sub -tantial food than oxygen.
 The treatments made by thi. re. markabie man have been many and varied, but the Denver News tells of an instance where cure vas affected AS follows:
 Henry Hauens!ein, who had been totally blind since March, 1892, and partially 70 dating back to Labor Day 1880. has returned to his home at 336 Fairyiew avelue, Highlands, after 8 visit 10 Schlader, the "Ei iegler," whose reported cures of the halt, the lame and the blind in New N, yico have caused so much comment Mir. Heu- enstein was given tweu:y seven treat ments by the "Healer" in five day..
 At the fret treatment" said MT. Hauenstein 10 A News rei orter, "he told me 1 would see differently. Ev- erything had been Of one color; could not tsll light f,om darkness. We were sitting ID the room Of au aGo5e house back oi Us vas half window. When he let loose everything in front oi me was dark. As turmed around it seemed little lighter. That was Saturday. Tuesday he said 10 me:
 "'The Father tells me ,ha: you will regain your eye-ight, bu, il will be slow
 The laat day he gave me five treatments, lasting rom I0:30, fore noon, 10 I2:l5, afternoon. Al the close could distingush objects be- tween me and the light. That will be two weeks tomorrow. Ever since have been regaining ruy .gh:-every- thing looks brighter. can see that there is something when swia my handteIore my face. believe firmly that l will regain my sight"
 The strangest part of this strange man is tha, he now freely ard unre- servedly says that he is Chri-t and that this ;s bis second visit upon earth.
 Where he will go to from AlbuqueI- que he is not sure, but the healer has signifsd his intention ot going to Arizona unless he Is called from earth teTore his mind is made up.
 The man is intensely religious, and II perchance he determines upon com ing to this city he will be warmly well comed more as a curiosity than as what lie represents himself 10 be.
