the Zoo, died last Tuesday from strangu-
lation. He had been allowed to visit the

william and Alice Johnson in a prairie
fire Saturday, in Morton county. The
children were driving from Richrield to
their home, twelve miles distant.
When n mile beyond Richfield they saw
great fire following them. which had been
set out by travellers. The wind was blow

children made a heroic effort 10 outrun the
fire, but their horse became exhausted, and
could go no further.
The flames were soon upon them, and
the children were suffOcated. The re-
mains were horribly charred.

Cuba In Public Place.

cries f"Death to Spain!' Long live Free
Cuba.' These reasonable shouts excited
the widest indignation among the loyal
lists, and it probably would have gone hard
with the shouters had they been caught by
the people. In the tumult, however, they
all escaped but two, who were arrested by
the police. One Of the prisoners is Cuban
and the other is believed to be an anarch-
ist. The police had hard work to defend

KIRKLAND lS INDICTED One Action Of the Grand
 Jury. The Body Discharged for the
 Term. Its Session Was a Brief One and It's Report phe-
 nomenon.,s

The grand jury of tine territorial court yesterday finished dts session, reported and was. discharged. It has several claims to prominence among grand juries. One is that its session lasted but four days against tIhe sev- eral months of the last grand jury. and secondly, that it's report was the short est ever locally known. The report read: we have examined into twenty-four cases, found fourteen true bills, ignored mine cases and referred one case to the next grand jury Signed, WilMam Pickrell, foreman"
 It appears that the grand jury did little with county affairs, in spite of rlmors that have this week been cir culated that various county officials were to be hauled over the coals. The greater portion of the work lay in the consideration of batch of criminal cases of Gittle importance, not a really interesting case being 9n the criminal docket for the term. The jury ap- peared to be liberal in its construction of the law and of criTninal intent and something over the regular percentage of cases were dismissed
  most important was a "blind'' indtct- memt found against Brent Kirkland, late clerk of the board of superv visors and prior thereto a member of the board. The Indictment has not been publicly announced, owing ito the fac! that the defendant has not been taken into custody. His present location is not known, though for a while he was supposed to have been at the Luke & Kirkland mine in Bradshaw Basin, southern Ylavapai county. The charge is endorsement and on several counts. The basis of each has heen made pub lie before. They sIiply refcapitulate how the defauafng clerk raised county warrants and how he collected moneys that did net to him belong and failed to account ito the beneficiaries for the same. Whether Kirkland will ever be captured cr not is now the question, for the evidence of pecuiation against him is too strong to save him should he be brought ito trial.
 The time of the court yesterday was devoted almost entirely to the consid- eration of variety of cases involving the assignment and attachment of the WiGdman-P -Peters-Goldman company of Tempe. The issue was that the Farm CTS and Merchants bank of Tempe at the time it placed its attachment on the property of defendants, had in its possession an amount of collateral claimed ito be sufficient to secure the amount due to it. The Issue brought up is, therefore, that the bank, before proceeding to the extraordinary meth cd of attachment, should have exhaust ed the remedy and security of which i. was already possessed.
 In criminal line the following ac- tion was taken:
 David Warford, grand larceny; plead guilty.
 Wm. Smith, grand larceny; plead not guilty and trial set for Monday.
 Anastasia Med;nas, assault with a deadly weapon; demurrer to ind;ct- ment overru,ed and set for trial Tues day.
