 tance of about 200 miles. All this country is rich in gold and silver, the belt running through to the Yukon.
 In recent comprehensive survey of the universe and the doings there in the Phoenix Herald discovered that many of the murders committed were done by irresponsible men, men ad- dicted to alcoholism and men lacking high standing in the communities in which they reside. It had been pop ular, but erroneous notion, and many popular notions are erroneous, that murder was the exclusive performance of persons of the greatest respecta- bility, of those who stand high in the church and help purify the state. It will next be discovered that it is colder in the north temperate zone in January than it is in July, and per haps the time is not far distant when it will be proclaimed to the world that the moon is not, as many people suppose, composed of green cheese.
 The Republican correspondent, writ ing from Ash Fork yesterday, said that the preliminary examination there on Monday of William Taught for killing A. N Carter at Seligman on Saturday night, Taught had been held for murder without bonds. It transpired that there had been no quarrel between Taught and Carter, though Taught claimed to have been deputized by deputy constable named Adams to arrest Garter for interfer- ence with him while attempting in a somewhat bungliag way to serve pa pers in garnishment suit. Adams had imagined that he was engaged in an attachment proceeding and tried to obtain the bank roll of a crap game run by Carter and a man named Scott. Adams denied that he had authorized Taught to take Carter. The only wit ness of the killing was girl who saw it indistinctly by moonlight. After the killing Taught took the gun to a saloon where he had borrowed it, lay down on the floor and went to sleep.
 A double bow-knot of people gath cred around a big reliable looking thermometer in front of Wakelin's pharmacy yesterday forenoon. The knot was made up in part of people in overcoats who had come here from the east and north to keep warm, but who had fallen into the habit of CUTS ing this semi-tropical climate. The thermometer said it was 1O31s in the shade. It was rather surprising, but nobody doubted the absolute truth of the statement. The eastern gentle men went back to their hotels and left their OvercOats. Some of them passed the thermometer at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. The sun, which was really hot, was shining upon it and it regis tered S7. A committee waited on the drug clerk and demanded an expla- nation He could only say that the mercury must have run up last sum mer and stuck fast. The hot sun. of yesterday afternoon shining on it, he thought, might have loosened it or the language of people who had been commenting upon it earlier in the day might have jarred it down. How ever, he said any explanation was i'm material, for there were the figures.
