 Time.
 It is said that every catastrophe has s humorous phase attached to it. This was demonstrated in the Partridge creek horror of q week ago, when James Hamilton lost his life, and three others narrowly escaped a watery grave also.
 The subject that furnished so much amusement, even in the face of death. at the above accident, was tho whisky drummer who had made hls first rip to Arizona. After got ting out of the creek, he com menced to run away from the roaring body of water, and as fast as his feet would strike dry ground be increased his pace accordingly. Like ali humans in the thFoes of such an exciting condition as he was labOring under. he ran around Q circle and only broke the course when he came within range of the creek. Cactus and prickly pears paid no attention to him, and neith- or did he to them, or their piercing ! and painful prOugS. He was hailed | by the survivors alter about ten minutes chase, and told that every. thing was all right, when he fell on ! his knees and offered up ferSent prayer, thanking Jehovah, Moham- med, God, and all the the other dieties for saving his life. While he was engaged in this prayer Young George approached him, and was saluted thusly: Keep away from me, you d-d fool, I am a porcupine. Yes, a rJrcupine!" A fire was built, and the remark of 1 the drummer was shown 10 be very applicable to his physical appear ance. He was literally alive with cactus stickers and sahuaro prongs, but he seemed to pay no attention to them in the excitement of his experience. He was nearly naked aud when taken to the Partridge creek cabin, was a frightful looking object. He hired a man and a pair of nippers, and, it is said, both were engaged for five long hours in extracting 'porcupine' bristles from his body. He left the station two days later, and while at Wick enburg was further humiliated by being held up as a sufferer from small pox. At last accounts he was en route to Phenix, and remarked that it would be many a long day ere Arizona would see him again "My whisky is tough enough" said he, but straight Arizona water discounts it..

braces Professor KendalFs New York

KendalFS patents are improvements
over the MacArthur-Forres process,
which. it is said. render the new pro-
cess vastly superior TO it. In addition
to the usual cyanide process, the new
process uses peroxide of sodium and
other chemicals not used by the Mac
Arthur-Forrest. The experiments Of
Mr.. Middleton will be first of Tom Boy
concentrates and tailings, and if sue
cessful a large sized plant will be put
in at the Tom Boy mill. This would
effect a great saving, as the precious
metals carried by the concentrates
would be extracted at the mill and sent
down in metallic form. The wrought
iron barrel which he is using for the
experiments has capacity of 1000
pounds of concentrates.
