The Captured RobbeT.

Mr' J. J. Alfred, editor of the Guard ian, is ID the city.en route home. Mir. Alfred was one of the United States grand jurors recently in session in Flor ence and aided in finding an indictment against the Florence stage robber. It appears from what vas learned that the robber WAS jogging slowly along in the direction of Mex.co at the time be was overtaken by Deputy United States Marshal Barttleson and Foreman. The meeting was sudden and unexpected. It appears that there was a small mount ain around which the road ran on bosh sides, and converged at either end. It was at the south end of the hill when they came almost face to face, On meeting the robber sprang to the ground and attempted to draw his revolver. but unfortunately for himself be had tied his riata about his body and he could not extricate his revolver from it. Bart leson also sprang to the ground but could not cover the Mexican for the reason thGt he wgs on tae oppo- SAAC S4Oc OL liS HOISc. DUI EuQ- denly tho horse turned and exposed the man still trying to loosen h;s gun. He was ordered hands up and he did. Fore man in the meantime was completely helpless. In attempting to dismount bis spur caught in his saddle cinch and the more he struggled to get loose the more belplessly ertangled he became.
 The Mexican IS a heavy set, etocky built man with full black beard. He made no denial of his guilt, but rather glorIed in what he had done. He plead guilty to the charge but United States Attorney Ellinwocd refused to accept his plea but summoned witnesses and will put him through a formal trial. The robbsr said that by pleading guilty he would get about one year in Yuma. but it is probable that he will get twen- ty years in San Quentin.
 He was indicted by the grand jury and probably is undergoing trial today.

The New Taxes Law.

The new law passed by the Texss leg isfature to prohibit prize fighting, or "Wednesday last is as follows: Section l. Be it enacted by the legls lature of the state of Texas that any person who shall voluntarily engage ID a puyiiistic encounter between man and man, or fight between man and bull or any other animal for money or other thiGg of value or upon the result of which any money or anything of value is bet or wagered or to see which any admission fee is charged, either directly or indirectly, shall be punished by imprisonment in the penltentlary not less than two nor more than five years.
 Sec. 2. By the term "pugilistic en- counter" as used In this act is meant a voluntary fight or personal encounter by blows by means of the fists, whether with or without gloves, between two or more men, for money or for prize Of any character, OF for any other thing of value, or upon the result of which money or anything of value IS bet or WRgered.
 Sec. 3 That all laws and parts of laws in conflict herewith be and the same are hereby repealed.
 Ssc. The fact that there is no Bd- equate penalty against prize fighting and pugilism creates an imperative pub lie necessity and emergency requiring the suspension of the constitu tional rule requiring bills to be read on three several days and that this law should take effect and be in force from and after its passage, and it is hereby so en- acted.

HonYY Rains.

The heavies: rain since 1890 fell IT
 this valley l1st Saturday night, and il appears to have been general as far af heard from. It raiaed hard and steady all night and until 9 o'clock Sunday
 when Solomonvllle presented decided ly drenched appearance and several good lrrigGtlDG streams weIe running in
 the principal streets. Water came in
 from the washes east of town and filled
 up the lots east Cf Bowie Avenue and
 between Main street and the MonJezu-
 ma canal to a depth of from one to five feet, but this all soon passed through the drainages after the rain stopped.
 Several le aky houses were reported but no serious damage was done to any building.
 The graded road leading to the bridge across the San Simcn was cut in two plec,s by that raging torrent, but the bridge stood firm Gnd the damage to the grade was but little. The San Simon YVES at the highest notch reached since the bridge was built and some unessi- ness was felt for its safety.
 The Gater came down through L.y- ton and Stafford from MunsOa cienega wash, a seething, foaming river, and the main road leading from Lsyton to Stafford WAS badly washed out, one place in front of J. c. Purseley's house being cut six feet deep. Stafford was lake of water and at the Bsebe corner Russelis picture gallery and bakery were badly damaged, the oven being washed to the ground.
 From Stafford much of the water fol- lowed the road down as far es Mon tier,h's ranch where there IS yet lake in the road, rendering it almost impas- sable.
 The GIla Valley, Globe and Northern sustained serious damage and its service was suspended until yester- day. There was three small breaks be- tween Solomonville and Stafford and many of the culverts were more or less between here and Bowie. At one place three or four miles this side of Bowie the track was gone for the length 0f twenty rails.
 It is reported from Bowie that Satur- day night the flood waters stood six ln- ches deep in Capt. Tevis' hotel.
 And etill Arlzona has the reputation of being very dry country.-Bulletln.

NOTIN THE TERRITORY.
The Fight Would be Detrimental to the Peace and Welfare of
 the Indians.

WASHINGTON, Oct. Swallowing is the
 letter of instructions Commissioners
 Browning has addressed to Agent D. M. 1 Wisdom, of Muskogee:
 "It is stated Tn the press dispatches
 of yesterday and this morning that ar
 engagements are being made, or have
 been completed, by parties interested,
 to have the prize fight between Corbett
 and Fitzsimmons come off in the Chick
 asaw nation, the plan being to pay in-
 to the treasury of the Chickasaw nation the snm of S5,000, in consideration for which the two fighters are to be adopt | ed into the nation with view to defeat
 ing the authority of this department to
 prevent such fighting. It would be, in
 the opinion of this office, a great detri- 1 ment to the peace and welfare of the
 Indians of the Indian Territory to per
 init a prize fight to take place within
 that territory, aad you are therefore in- | structed to use every precaution nscee-
 ssry to prevent any one entering the | Chickasaw nation or any other nation in | the Indian Territory and under your charge for the purpose of having said | fight come off in that territory.
 "You will advise the governors of the 1 various nations of the Indian Territory that this office will not permit prize l fight to take place within your jurisdic- | ton and you will call upon the United al if | to this office and troops will be furnlsh- | ed you to prevent the fight.
 Section 2l49 of the Revised Statutes i authorizes and requires me, with the ap- ] proval of the secretary of the interior, to remove from the limits of any Indian | reservation any person found thereon | without authority of law, or whose pres ] ence there would be, in my opinion, de- trimental to the peace and welfare of | the Indians. In U. $. vs. Crook it was held the commissioner of Indian affairs
 had authority under the section above l cited to remove an Indian from the res- ervation as well as white man.
 "As I have said it would be, in my opinion. decidedly detrimental to the peace and welfare of the Indians to per- nit anyone to enter the Chichasaw reser-
 vatlon, whether he be citizen of that
 nation CT not, for the purpose of carry
 ing on prize fight, and the whole force
 of this government that can be brought
 to bear will be exerted to prevent the
 same; and you are instructed to keep
 this office constantly advised in order
 that proper steps may be taken in tune
 to prevent the fight, in case an effort
 should be made to pull it off in the h.
 dian Territory. You will make these
 instructions public so that the people
 interested in this fight may be advised
 Of what the government intends to do
 in the premises if called upon to act"

POINTS OF INTEREST.

|
 The mesa lands are covered with mes quite trees whose foliage and leaves fur nish nutritious food to stock during the summer and fall months. There are | two ralny seasons producing a winter and summer grass. Oak trees grow at | the base of the mountains and fine for ests of pine and fir grow on most of the mountain ranges, which are white cap- ped during the winter months, supply ing the mountain streams, especially the Santa Cruz and Rillito rivers with flood waters during the winter and spring months. Clouds hover their summits which are famed by cool southwest winds passing down to the mesa below, creating a balmy atmosphere. This must be seen to be appreciated. The old San Xavier del Bac, mission church built by the padres for the Papago h. dians, is in good state of preservation. It is constructed on the Moorish 3tyle of architecture. Its age is unknown, but the year 1797 is marked upon the vestry door.
 The St. Augustine church WAS formerly three milee north of Tucson on the San- ts Cruz, but on account of age and de- cay and Indian troubles it was moved to where his honor. the governors resi- dence, now stands. The chappel of the presidio has disappeared and the pres ent church of St. AugustIn is of recent construction.
 The Escals Purs is au old ruin on the Santa Cruz valley under the lea of Sen- tinel and Saddle peaks.
 These peaks have old Notifications and lookouts, the work of a prehistoric people of whom we know nothing. The old Tumaccscori, San Jose or San Cay etano, Tubac and Arivacs missions are ruins and level with mother earth. Evid ences of the cultivation of the soil by the Papagos and mission padres are very plain at the present date, from the old ruins and foundations of buildings. Ditches are plainly discernable and res ervoirs with part of their embankment still in place, together with a vast amount of broken olla pottery sbounds on both sides of the Santa Cruz and Ril ito rivers. Fruit trees were still in ex- istence within the past few years in the church yard at Tumacacori, but vandals have destroyed them.
 The sentiment of the citizens and tax payers of Pima county is almost univer sally in favor of statehood.

Letters from Maryland,
ARLINGTON, Md, Oct. l, 1895.

ARLINGTON, Md, Oct. l, 1895.
 EDITOR CITIZEN:
 Some years ago an occasional news paper from Arizona used to come to our home out here in the suburbs of Mary. lands metropolis, Baltimore, and it was with considerable degree of interest that the writer used to scan the columns of that most welcome visitor from dis tant section of Uncle Sam's domain.
 1 do not know whether or not a com munication to the CITIZEN from "My Maryland" will find it's way into print, or help ye editors wRste-basket.
 Baltimore is fine city and possesses many advantages. There are fine churches, colleges and schools. The parks and squares are very pretty and electic railways furnish rapid transit | for passengers.
 Druid Hill park is beautiful place in which to spend some hours on 8 warm summer day, or indeed, little later in the season, too, if one chooses. The fine drives afford much pleasure for many of the city's residents, and others.
 Autumn, that truly beautiful season, is here once more. The golden-rod has been blooming for sometime indeed, weeks before the fall came, believe, ard the wild asters are here now in all their beauty.
 The treee are not yet radiant in their beautiful fall colorings of read and gold that will be little later, as the season advances l suppose at the time of which the HOosier poet has written.
 "When the frost IS on the pumkin and the tsesel's on the corn."
 Buffalo Bills Wild West show is in Baltimore, so Baltimoresns, some of them, any way, will have an opportuui- ty of seeing some "real live" Indians and something perhaps truly western. No doubt to many who have ridden over the plains and are familiar with scenes and incidents of the west, the show would not be particular interesting, but Indi- ans, cowboys, etc, seem more of a novelty to those who have always lived in this locality. They must suggest something rather remote from ones present surroundings and to some minds at least, truly .'Tis distance lends en- chantment to the view"
 Montana's exhibit at the Worlds fair, the Ada Rehan statue, will be at the Hsgerstown, Maryland fair. which is to be held Oct. 15, 16. 17 and IS, and by the way, Msrylanders hope tn have a big exposition in Baltimore in 1897, l wonder if many of Arizona residents are inter ested in and are coming to the fair, many thousands of dollars will be ex pended and doubtless much effort will be made to make the exposition a suc cess. Doubtless many will come to Baltimore at that time and our city will be apt to put on her brightest and best aspect and strangers will have an oppor- tunity to enjoy Maryland hospitality.
 This little place, Arlington, is few miles out from the centre of the city, electric cars and steam railroad con meet the place with the city. It is rather B pretty place, quite a pleasant location for summer sojourners who want to be within easy access of Bslti- more.
 We have pretty flowers and some rice fruits grow here and it is a pretty heslthful section of 'My Maryland"
