Property within the city limits is too high-priced to be utilized as resi- dence property, when better and more comfortable homes can be secured in these beautifully situated additions at a small cost. The man who cares to investigate the future growth of Phoenix and vicin- ity will readily come to the conclusion that within the next six years its popu- lation will reach 10000 or 30,000, and in order to accommodate this pushing, bus ting throng business houses, as we'll as residences, will seek the additions here mentioned, and their cash value thereby be enhanced tenfold.

A DYNAMITE EXPLOSION.
People of Chicago and Vicinity Aroused by
the Shock.

People of Chicago and Vicinity Aroused by
the Shock.
Chicago, December 27.-What apear-
ed to be another earthquake shook Chi
cago at 1 o'clock this morning, end
made the country tremble for miles
around. The shock was caused by the
four tons of giant powder which was
accidentally ignited near the little town
of Romeo, en- the big new drainage canal
which is in course Of construction. No
one was killed. Throughout an area Of
about 80 miles square, from Waukegan,
His, on the north, to Kankakee, His,
on the south, and from Rockford. Ills.
On the west, to Michigan City, Ind, on
the east, the shock was heard. At all
these places there seemed 20 be a great
explosion. and anxious inquiries were
sent in all directions to learn the cause
Of the shock.
Throughout Chicago windows shook
and ratified, and buildings seemed to
rock Probably as May as million
people were awakened by the shock.
The explosion occurred IN the same
place where last week a number of
workmen were killed and injured by a
similar accident on a smaller scale.
Not a stick of wood or a scrap of iron
of the magazine was left. About the
only tangible result was an immense
hole IN the ground. A 75-pound weight,
known tc have been at the magazine,
was found half a mile away, where it
had been carried by the force of the
shock. A number Of cranes were some
what damaged, but aside from this and
the destruction of the magazine and
dynamite there was no loss except from
breakage Of windows in a great area.
That no one was killed or injured is due
to the fact that there were no watchmen
on duty in the vicinity at the time and
no night shifts employed on the line.
The idea is that the explosion occurred
IN the drying room of the powder house.
The nearest habitation TO the place of
the disaster is quarter of mile dis
tant. the contractors boarding house
Nearly 200 men there were thrown from
their beds to the floor, but none were
injured.

\ California Family Disappears Entirely.
Rustlers Blamed.
San Francisco, December PA spe-
cial from Spokane, Wash, says: Mrs.
Susie Hess. Of Pueblo, Colo. arrived in
this c.-y last night and to-day made
known TO the authorities her belief that
her father, mother. sister and brother
have been murdered.
Mrs. Hess husband died recently and
her parents who resided at Ellensburg
wrote for her to come and live with
them. Two weeks ago she arrived un-
eXpecyedly at EllensbWrg, only TO find
that her father had sold out his bust
ness and with his family had started
across the country to Lewiston, Idaho
She went to that place but found no
trace of her relatives. except that their
goods had arrived. She then returned
10 Ellensburg and engaging a guide.
started out On the trail of her parents.
She readily traced them as far as the
foot hills Of the Cascade range when all
trace of them disappeared. For days
she continued the search but without
avail. She finally came TO this city TO
enlist the aid of the authorities in the
search. The neighbOrhOod in which the
family disappeared is a rendezvous for
cattle rustlerS and as her father. p. Don
nelly. was known 10 have had cOnsid-
cradle money with him it IS the impress
sion that the entire family has been
murdered.

HARD FIGuriNG AT zEITOUN.
Official Reports say $500 Armenians We're
Killed.

Official Reports say $500 Armenians Were
Killed.
Constantinople. December Pit is
officially announced that most obstin-
ate fighting preceded the capture of
Zeitoun by the Turks. Semi-official adj
vices from Zeitoun say the Armenians
lost $500 killed during the engage
ment. and that only $50 Turks were
killed
The narrow pass between the hills
leading out of ZeitOun is said to be
crowded with Armenian men, women
and children. and it is feared they will
be massacred The ambassadors of
Great Britain, France, Germany. Rus
STA, Italy and Austria sent their dragO-
mans TO the palace to-day, to make rep
reservations with the view of prevent
ing the Armenians from being massa-
cred and pointing ont the gravity Of
such q deed. Little hope is felt, how
ever. that the representations Of the
ambassadors will avail, and the general
belief is that the survivors Of the battle
have already been killed.
The financial situation continues to
be very bad. The various projects Of
the Porte to raise money by granting
monOpolies for the sale of petroleum, al
cohOl etc. have collapsed for the pres
ent. although it is believed that negO-
tiations on the subject will shortly be
resumed. The Porte. however has
succeeded in collecting 100000 from the
various vilavets, which money was de-
voted TO paying the months salaries Of
the officials here. But nothing has
been said about paying the soldiers and
others who are in arrears. and in con-
sequence the feeling of discomfort in
the army, which has frequently been
referred to recently. is understood to
be on the increase and the situation is
bv no means a bright one.
