CLARK DISMISSED, TOO.
Being Held as Witness in the Nc
Donou2h Case

The case against Frank Clark,
charged with resisting an officer, was
dismissed in the police court yesterday
and the defendant released from Gus
tody. Clark was with Martin McDon-
ough the night McDonough was shot by
Patrolman O'Neill. He has been con-
fined in the county Jail since then, his
case being continued from time to time
in order that he might be used as a
witness before the grand jury when
the O'Neill case was considered. The
grand jury finding no bill against
ONeill when the case against Clark
was called yesterday, motion was
made to dismiss the case, which was
granted by Judge Twohy.

Don't you dare to refuse a silver
coin no matter how badly it is worn

may get into trouble. The United

handed down this week, settled a

all the courts by deciding that a
man who was put off a train be

dime that was very much worn was

in disposing of the case said that

Precious Output for 80.

As near as can be estimated al
this date the mineral product of Ari-
zona for the year 1895 was as follows
Gold, S6,2O0,OO0.
Silver, 375,OOO ounces.
Lead, 100000 pounds.
Copper, 100000 pounds.
The gold product is several mill
ions in excess of last year. 1t has
come from very multitude oi
sources. The stamp mills have
ground it out of the oxide ores, and
have concentrated it from the sui
phurets; it has been CLEANED by the
placer miner from the creek beds
and precipitated from old tialings in
cyanide vats; it has been found in
copper ores of Jerome and has been
extracted from rebellions ores ship
ped to Colorado and eastern smelt-
ers. The gain in gold has principal
ly been from the pyritic lodges of
Yavapai county, now being explored
in all energy and with all success.
The silver, and the quantity is
about the lowest ever noted for a
years run, has mainly been obtained
by the reduction of gold ores in
combination. Several silver mines,
however, have been lately awaken
ed and '96 will doubtless see pro-
duction of over a million in silver.
In copper there has been rise from
the product of '94. In '94 as we'll as
in the greater portion of '95, the Old
Dominion works at Globe had been
closed down. To '95 they have con-
tributed not over a million pounds.
In '96 they may be expected to pro-
duce at least 100000 pounds, what

The Miracle Tree.

"The turning of the rod of Moses
into serpent has long been explain
ed as piece OF Eastern necroman-
cy," says writer in the New York
World, s"and many travellers in India
have seen juglers perform the very
same feat. The shifting of the rock
for water has long been deemed sim
ply an instance of practical judg-
ment on the part of the great He
brew prophet in discovering spring
and divulging it to his people with
dramatic effect. But the burning
BUSH has always been regarded as
miracle that must be taken upon
faith alone. The scriptural account
of this Moses episode is to be found
in Exidus iii, End to 5th verses.
In the recent Englis Foreign
Office report there is a description
of a lately discovered .stunted tree
that goes by the name of chaparoon.
If this be not the veritable burning
BUSH that burned with fire and was
not consumed it is very close to it,
for experiments have revealed that
it not only resists fire for a long
time, but that its trunk is practically
incombustible. 1t seems actually to
thrive ON great forest fires in which
it alone remains unconsumed, for if
long period passes without con-
fagration the chaparoo gradually
decays and dies.
In huge confagration this
strange tree seems to start into life,
as an ordinary plant does when it is
wet with rain after long drought.
Amid the swirling reds and yellows
of the flames it takes on new life,
and after the fire has swept past it
is seen with new shoots of vivid
green springing out of it. At such
times the chaparoos stands alone,
sturdy and strong, amid the sur
rounding blackened trunks, the only
living thing in a land reduced to
sterillty.
The London scientists who have
looked into the matter believe that
the trunk of the tree, and its
branches in smaller degree, exude
under the influence of great heat
moisture that is sufficient owing to
its peculiar chemical properties, to
protect the wood.
Commenting on the chaparoos,
the English Foreign effice report
says: 'It is very remarkable that
these fre-begotten plantations are
nowhere crowded to excess; on the
contrary, the trees are so regularly
placed that their aspect yies with
that of the;
garden" en- ii

be more accurate, for chaparoo is
little more than that. 1t seldom
grows to height of more than eight
feet, and in appearance it much
more resembles a bush than even a
smallish tree. 1t grows mainly in
South Africa, being most frequently
met with in the wild regions far to
the west of the Transvaal, in dis
tricts where few white men have
been. The natives look upon it with
superstitious awe and imagine that
a god dwells within its trunk. They
avoid the groves of these trees after
nightfall. The wood is tough and
unyielding, and after fire will dull
the edge of the sharpest instrument.
A specimen of chaparoo bark is on
exhibition in the museupeGfu
Pharmaceutical society, in :
bury square, London.
A comparison of the de -
of this remarkable tree with that
given of the burning bush" shows
that it was probably the thorny aca-
cia of the Arabian peninsula, the
stunt of Egypt, and was akin to the
shittah tree and senna. Hence the
mountains on which it grows derive
their name, Sinai; and the tract is
called the evidences of Sin" or
the "Seneh." The wood of the
shittah tree furnished the material
for the ark of the covenant and va
rious parts of the tabernacle. 1t is
hard, tough and durable and sus-
ceptible Of fine polish.
