Part OF the FURNITURE Faclory Destroyou
by Fire-Tenant Kills Farmer.
Huntsville, Aug. 31.-(Special Core
spondence. )-Fire destroyed Saturday
night a two-story brick wing building of
the West Huntsville Furniture company,
which was used as offices and store
room for finished furniture, of which 1t
was full at the time. The origin of the
fire is unknown, and spontaneous COM
bustion is the only theory advanced.
The factory is half a mile or more from
the city limits, and hence the depart
ment could not reach 1t.
Capt. j. A. Ward is president and gen.
eral manager Of the West Huntsville Fur
niture company, and he being out of the
city his plans are not positively known,
but 1t is safe to say that the burned build
ing will be replaced at once.
The exact amount of loss is not obtain
able, but 1t is safe to say that all loss and
damage is fully covered by insurance.
Saturday morning at New Hope, in the
eastern part OF the county, A. HI. Worley,
a farmer who was killed by one of his
tenants, Thomas A. Reynolds.

DEATH IN A CREvICE.
damned IN the Ice, the Man Talked With
Those Who Tried to Rescue Him.


Those Who Tried to Rescue Him.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
The particulars of the tragic death of
a Seattle prospector named Edward Ken
nah in the crevice of a glacier in the
Cook Inlet country were brought here
today by the steamer Willapa from
Alaska. At the bottom of an ice crack
so feet below the surface, solidly jammed
between two walls of ice, Kennah talked
to his comrades above for one hour and
ten minutes, when his voice was chilled
by death.
A party of nine prospectors were walk
Ing abreast across glacier near Twenty
mile creek, at the head of Turn-again
arm, on the Fourth of July. A thin sheet
of ice hid from view crack about 3 feet
in width. The party approached diago-
nally, the end man carrying gun across
both shoulders, when he and the next in
line Kennah, suddenly slipped through
the thin coating of ice and disappeared
In the chasm below. Their wild cries
barely prevented some of the others
meeting with similar fate.
The gun fell crossways or feet be-
low the surface and enabled one of the
men to be rescued. But the other pros
pector, Kennah, fell over 70 feet and was
tightly jammed between the diverging
walls of ice. His voice could be distinctly
heard as he directed the movements of
his Would-be rescuers in their fruitless eff
forts to raise him out of the coffin of ice.
Blankets were torn up and tied into long
strands, and Kennah fastened one end
around his body but the force of the fall
had damned him so tightly between the
perpendicular walls of ice, and the chill
so benumbed his body and exhausted his
vitality, that the combined efforts of his
partners could not raise him from the
frozen tomb.
Gradually his voice becama weaker and
more indistlnct, his efforts for self-pres-
ervation grew feebler and one hour and
ten minutes from the time the accident
happened the last faint sound from below
was heard.
Kennah was an elderly man and be-
longed in Seattle, where he is said to have
a son employed in the postoffice. A
miner from Cook Inlet is taking a fare
we'll message from the dying father to the
son.

A Daslardly Deed.

On Saturday night some persons bent
upon mischief committed a deed at East
Lake which for wantonness equals any
thing OF the kind ever recorded IN this
county. There were three OF four In the
party and they were seen to pry the
supports from under the railway station
at Fifth street after which they hurled
the structure TO the ground, leaving i'm
media ely and not waiting to see If it fell
across the railroad track. Fortunately
It did not, as a car In running along might
have come in contact with the obstruc-
tion and been thrown from the track and
people MANNED or killed. No clue to the
perpetratOrs.

Every ship that rides upon the sea, all of the great armaments of our sea coast, all of the grand highways of commerce that traverse our country, all the grandeur of our cities, all of our splendid agricultural develop ment, are monuments of labor In no coun- try of the world has labor been more fully recognized and honored than in ours. Arlong its other grand achievements it has been the mission of our country 10 ennoble and dig nifty labor, and ho people of our republic more fully sympa.hize with the hopes and aspirations of the wolkingmen than the people of our Territory.
 Now. therefore, I, Benjamin J Franklin. Governor of the Territory of Arizona. by virtue of the power and authority in me vested, do hereby proclaim Monday. the sey- eDth day of September A. D. 1896, a holiday. and do hereby recommend and request that all places of business and public offices be closed on that day. and that the people of our Territory join In universal observance thereof,
 In witness whereof have hereunto set my

TIE Board of Supervisors in making the tax levy for 1896, labored in the interest of the taxpayers. The levy was made at $2 80 on $1O0 valuation, 10 cents less than last year. The re- duction will be appreciated by the tax payers of Coconino county, and the fact that the county has better public buildings than any other county in the Territory and that they were procured at reasonable expense is another thing that highly gratifies the tax payers.
