KNIFE WAS DULL.
Young Mexican Makes Several Ugly
 Slashes On His Throat

Sunday morning it Wal reported at police headquarters that young Mex iean aged 21 years, living just east of the East End school house, had at tempted to commit suicide by cutting his throat.
 Sheriff Orme and Marshal Clark proceeded at once to the house and found the family much wrought up. Lying on bed and groaning was the young man who courted death. He was bleeding profusely from several slashes on his neck. Physicians were summoned and they dressed the wounds, which did not prove to be very dangerous. The slashes were three in number and the jagged cuts showed that the deed had been done with a dull knife
 The weapon used was an ordinary case knife with the end broken off. The young mans intentions were all right. for he made desperate attempts to sever his jugular, but he did not even cut an artery.
 The attention of the neighbors was attracted by hearing sounds of weep ing coming from the Mexican house hold. Charles Coon, who lives close by, hastened over and saw a man sit ting at table with knife in his hand and blood flowing freely over his clothes and on the floor.
 The young man has been very i'll for some time and made several threats to kill himself. Another tale is that he was greatly en 8lored of young sen- orita who was not reciprocal in af- fections which caused him to attempt the deed of self-destruction.

A RAILROAD CENTER.
Phoenix Temporarily on the Line of
 Transcontinental Road,

Phoenix for the present at least Is on the line of transcontinenta rail way, due to the severe washouts on the line of the Atlantic & Pacific at Peach Springs.
 The first overland train to arrive over the s. F., P. & P. came in Sunday, westward bound. A large crowd of citizens was at the depot to witness the arrival of the first overland train that ever passed through this city.
 The train consisted of eleven coaches hauled by one of the S. F., P. & P. com- pany's heavy mountain climbers. There were 135 passengers on board and after taking dinner they walked around town taking in the sights. After a stop of an hour here the train was shlnted to the M & P. tracks and hauled to Marieopa in two sections.
 The first eastbound train of the A. & P. system came through yesterday morning via Marioopa, in charge of Conductor Fields, the regular M. & P. conductor. When that train passed Yuma the brass band of that city was at the depot and serenaded the pas Sengers.
 The overland trains will travel over this route until Wednesday, when 1t is thought the washouts at Peach Springs will be repaired to allow the passage of trains. No freight trains will bye sent over the s. F., P. & P. and

MONKEY LIGHTS MATCHES.
But Has Not the Intelligence to KindIe .
 Fire with Them.

But Has Not the Intelligence to Kindle .
 Fire with Them.
 No creature but man has ever made use of fire. An African traveller, indeed. has told a story of apes making thiev- ing raid on camp of natives, and car rying torches to light their-May; but this story lacks proof, and is not ac- cepted as true by zoologists. ',s-
 There is, however, says the Youths Companion, in the Philadelphia zoologi- cal garden monkey who has learned to scratch matches perfectly well. This accomplishment he is willing to exhibit on any occasion. He has learned to hold the match by it's middle part, so that his fingers are not burned by being too near the flame, and so that the match will not break by being held too near the other end.
 This fact involves another, that he is aware which end has the sulphur, and does not attempt tc scratch the unsul- phured end. He has furthermore learned that a rough surface is better to scratch the match on than smooth one, and his care in looking for the rough places is very diverting..
 But with all these intelligences, the monkey has no notion of kindling an- other fire with the one that he has caused by the friction of the match. He simply lets the match burn out, and if he lights another, does it for the pleas ure of seeing it burn.
 This monkeys keepers, and the men of science who are experimenting with his intelligence, hope to communicate to him eventually an idea of fire making and using; but from the. moment they succeed in doing so-if they ever do sue ceed-it will be necessary to keep matches out of his reach.

While MT.
