 THREE OF A KIND.-T.e tragic end of Minnie Powers and "the Cock ney" last Saturday gives another lease of life to a superstition which has pre- vailed in Phoenix a long time that death by suicide or murder is always
 closely followed by two other trag- edies of the same kind. In this case
 ''the Cockney's" murder and suicide occurred just six days after the kill ing of w. B. Casey. It is not often that the three violent deaths which are supposed to have a relation to one another, are crowded together in the same week. If they come within a month the superstitious are satisfied that the rule has been maintained.
 WENT HOME TO DIE.-LeopoId Hellman. wealthy cloak manufac- turer Of New York, who with his wife has resided in the city since last March, left for home on Monday night to die. He was carried to the train on a sheet and placed in Pullman state room- For some time after his ar rival in Phoenix Hellman seemed to improve. Indeed. he did net look like a dangerously sick man. He was able to be about the street and spent a part of every afternoon and evening riding. About week ago he col lapsed with suddenness. His break ing up was believed to be due as much to worry about his business as to as- sallts by disease
 NEW PATRIOTIC SOCIETY," A movement is under way for the insti- tuition of a camp of Sons of War Vet erans. This society is distinct fom the Sons of Veterans. The qualifica- tion for membership is much more re- stricted- It is required that the mem ber must be actually the son of a vet eran who has engaged in one or more battles. It is not sufficient that he be the son of substitute, ninety-day mar or one whom the fortunes of war did not lead into peril of shot and shell. Of all the sons of soldiers in Phoenix and the surrounding country it is doubtful if twelve can be found, tha smallest number that may be orga- nized, who are qualified for member ship.

 AS TO FLAGSTAFF.-"The Pente- cost" is the name Of holiness paper published at Los Angeles. One of the chief subscribers in this city is Bro. Hi Hooker of the city hall The current issue Of The Pentecost con tains some correspondence from Flag staff in which a guiIeless minister of the holiness church gives a great deal of advertising to Sandy DOnohue, whom he says he likes in spite of his long career of wickedness. He does not mention Sandy's name, but his description is 50 able and vivid that all the friends and acquaintances Of Cooonino county's famous ex-sherim him. The correspondent is but not discouraged at the cussedness Of Flagstaff He says that preaching there is like standing in front of the gates Of hell to keep people from crowding in He hasn't made much of an impression on the Skylight city yet, but he l.asn't been there very long. He is rather proud that he is there at all. The circum- stance that he was sent to Flagstaff seems to show that he was regarded as reformer of the first magnitude
 HORSE IN A HOLE.-A horse be- longing to J. F. Kearney, the man. aSer of the gas works at the corner Of Fifth avenue and Washington street. while roaming around the premises early yesterday morning. fell into an abandoned well or cesspool. The ex- cavation was covered with a quantity Of gas pipe and cast-oT iron, rather as it has transpired. For there was nothing in the well except such miscellaneous articles as the horse carried down with him in his plunge. He lay there on his side, with no space to spare for man to work around him or pass rope around his body Mir Kearney in his dilemma called upon J. D. Reed of the Pioneer Truck company and that gentleman proved equal to the occasion. He took :, derrick that has been used for hoist ing heavy materials and planted it over the opening. Then the horse beneath was roped by his feet and in this position was hauled
