A SAD ACCIDENT.

Results in the Death .f Robert Lee
 The uncertainty of life has had another sorrowful illustration in the sudden talk ing off of young Bob" Lee, we'll and fa- orably known to a wide circle of friends in southern Ar,zons. Saturday after. noon, the very last day of two mouths round up, in the neigh uorhood of Table Mountain, ID Pinsl county, Bob" was at worK with bis crew, holding large bunch of cattle which had been driven together. One of the unruly bessts broEe out of the herd, and started down the eide of @ very steep bill. Young Lee followed and threw bis rata over the animal. His horse was very tired, owing to the hard work which 1t had done, and refused to answer the rein. Instead of following the COW down hill, the horee turned his head away and was thrown over upon his side. So suddenly was thls done that the rider did oot have the slightest chance to free himself from the saddle, and n consequence was crushed beneath the horse. HIs neck and back bone were broken. His comrades came to his rescue, found him unconscious and knew that the end was near. He was placed upon Q horse and carried to the nearest ranch, seven miles away where he lay alive, but wholly uncon' scious, for twelve houre, when he breath ed hie last.
 His body was brought to the city and was buried this morning at ten o'clock The deceased wss just boy, being le years and five days old. He was bro ther of Mrs. Richard Brady and Mrs Moss, spd was well known in the city He had large circle of friends, won and kept by strict adherence to manly principle. The sympathy of the entire communi ty goes out to the sfa cted relatives.

AN ABANDONED MINE.
Interesting Discovery Made by Pros
 pectors in Yavapai County.

Interesting Discovery Made by Pros-
 pectors in Yavapai County.
 At Mountain Springs, seven miles from Hillside and fifty miles west of Prescott, according to the Prescott Courier, Messrs. Marcsmy and Waters work on a gold claim. A short time ago, while going over the surface of this claim they discovered an absn- doned shaft. They placed windlass and rope h position and descended the shaft a depth of forty feet; from the bottom of this shaft extended a tunnel, partly csved in, but sufficiently preserved to enable them to follow it ID for 100 feet. Tbe ore body exposed in this tunnel is said to be fifty feet wide, the ore a red oxide of iron, car rying in places, gold visible to the naked eye The old tunnel had caved at point 100 feet from it's mouth. The explorers retrsced their steps to the bot tom of the shaft, from which they found another tunnel running in another direo- ton. This tunnel they penetrated fifty feet until sheir progress was stopped by 8 cave of the rocks and dirt. This tunnel contained the same showing of ore that the long one did. They then descended the hill and 400 feet below found the mouth of sn old tunnel, stored in. which were found rusted cooking utensils, picks with handles rotted out, and other min ing tools. No man now living in this section has any knowledge of these work iugs or who carried them on. They cer- tainly date back over thirty years. A party of mining men has gone cut to examine the property and it's ancient workings. There is an abundance of wood and water close at hand.

THE TIP TOP GROUP.
Some Good Claims Near Mann,

Some Good Claims Near Mammoth.
 Harry s. Turner is in the city from his hints near Mammoth. Three miles northwest of that point he has been busiIy at work for sometime on the Tip Top group of gold claims. This year be has done s25O0 worth of work on the group. He has opened up TO feet of tunnels and shafts, timbered, put up ladders, sunk we'll in which he has six feet of water, and built @ very com fortable stone house.
 The Tip Top claim has two feet of pay ore in the bottom of the shaft.
 He also has the Golden Eagle group, which consists ot three claims. Shafts on the claims have been sunk to depths varying from 30 to fifty feet, and cross cut in one of them has uncovered six to eIght feet of ore which gives average returns of $9 per ton.
 The mines are located in district well known for its productivenees, and will doubtless yield their owner 8 handsome return in the not distant future.

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Man Offers to Send
 His Discovery Free.
Claims to be Bensfactor to Wsakan-
 cd Mankind.

There is always more or lesssuspicioa attached to anything that IS offered free but sometimes a man so overfows with generosity that he cannot rest until his discovery is known to the world, in order that his fellow men may profit by what he has discovered. It is upon this principle that 6 resident of Kalamazoo, Mich, desires to send free to mankind a prescription which will cure them of any form of nervous debility; relieves them of all the doubt and uncertainty whicheuch men are peculiarly liable to and restores the organs to natural slso and visor. As it costs nothing to tzy the experiment it would seem that any man, suffering with the nervous troubles that usually attack men who nevef stop ped to realize what might be the final result. ought to be deeply interested in a remedy which will restore them to health, strength and vigor, without which they continue to live an existence of untold misery. As the remedy m question was the result of many years research as to what combination whould be peculiarly effective in restoring to men the strength they need, it would seem that all men suffering with any form of nervous weakness ought to write for such remedy at once. A rs- quest to H. 0. Olds, Box 17S2, Kslsma- zoo, Mich., stating that you are not sending for the prescription out of idle curosity, but that you wish to make uso of the medicine by giving ib trial, will be answered promptly and without evidence as to where information came from.
 The prescription is sent free and d. though some may wonder how Mir. Olds can afford to give away his discovery. there IS no doubt about the offer being genuine. Cut this out and send to MT. Olds SO that he may know how yo1 came to write him. l1-2-78t

MORALES AGAIN GUARDED.
Fears of Another Uprisinx of the
 Yaquis.

Yaquis.
 For several days past fears eff another attack on the Custom House st Noeales, Sonora, by the fsnstcal Ysquis have been growing stronger, caused by the statement a few days ago by sn old Indian woman that another attack was contemplated by the Indians and that the blow would fall some time during Christmas week. Previous to the attack of the 18th of August, this old woman warned the authorities on the Mexican side of what was contemplated, but they did not place any credence in her story. Now she gives them warning again and a close observation of the movements of the Indians seems to corroborate her story. It has been noticed that several of the Yaquis who have been at work around at different places, have left their work. It was feared that if any considerable number of them came, that there would be great danger to the lives of citizens and to property on the American side. Accord ingly communications were forwarded to the Commanding Officer at Fort Huschuca with the result that on Sun day morning Captain Davis in command of Go. H, of the 18th regiment arrived in NogaIes with his company to be on the ground for the purpose of protsct~ ing American lives and property in cass the contemplated attack materislized. The boys have been camped on tho flat just below town, and are constantly on the alert in case any trouble arises. So far, however, there has been mono, and it is thought that the scare is about over for the present at least. Captain Davis and Ut. Kirsch with their com. pany expect to return to the Fort this evenirg.-Vidette.

Arizona Natural Bridge.

Abstr act of a composition by Harry G. Logan, of the Freshman class, in the University of Arizona.
 The Natural Bridge of Arizona is one of the wonders of the world, and far ex- ceeds the natural bridge of Virginia in extent and grandeur. IL spans Pine Creek, one of the tributsrIee of the upper Salt River in Gila county, about four miles from the town of Pine.
 Pine Creek here flows in a canyon with steep sides. Arriving at the brink of this canyon we see before and below US nearly level flat of land some five or six acres in extent reaching across the canyon to the opposite side, where there is an abrupt wall of rocks, the face of a mountai ], perhaps fifteen hundred feet high. Standing on this level tract of lana OF which there are buildings, sn alfalfa field, and an orchard, it IS hard to believe that we are on the top of a natural bridge across chasm and that the stream flows below us. But looking to the right and to the left, ss we face the precipitous bluff, we see the open canyon perhaps 300 or 400 feet wide and two hundAd and fifty feet deep. The height of the bridge lessens az we approach the opposite side and at one place there IS hole in the apparent ly solid rock through which one can look down for 126 feet to the bottom of the canyon.
 Desiring to get under this wonderful bridge we take trail to the left and note that the rocks lie in great benches or strata with cave-like openings ex- tending back wards into the buttresses of the bridge. Entering one of these open ings and crawling sometimes upon our hands and knees we find a cave, or vaulted cham Der, with beautiful translus- cent stalactltes pendant from the ceiling and reaching nearly to the floor. These etatactites are resonant when struck, giving of musical notes. This cave is the abode of numerous bats and they made it uncomfortable for us to remain so we descended to the bottom of the canyon where there Is 8 pool of water twenty to thirty feet across, and said to bs over fifty feet deep.
 The opposite buttress or wall of the bridge is nearly perpendicular.
 Other caves along the canyon give evi depcs of the flow of water carrying lime in solution, for twigs, grass and other substances lyIng in the water are now covered with crust or deposit of lime. The rocks of the canyon appear to be chiefly limestone.
 Theorizing upon the origin of the bridge we may suppose that the open ings of cslce.ous water have gradually deposited lme in greater quantity above than below and have in the lapse of time buils out, or cemented together. the rocks and debris of the canyon until 8 firm cemeuted mass was formed under which the water cut its way.
