Arrested on Suspicion.

A singular procession arrived in town a little after 2 o'clock this afternoon and brought up in the sherifFs office. 1t was in command of John Ferris. the we'll aiown placer miner who was armed with an old fashioned double barreled shot gun. Besides Mr. Ferris there were two other men ID the procession and they wens turned oves to the sheriff.
 The story told by MT. Ferris was that he spent last night away from his cabin. leaving the latter. as be supposed, securely locked from sll lntrudeFs. On his arrival home about half past ten this morning he discovered that during his absence his cabin had been entered and some of his provisions stolen. The two men m question were seen going from the direction of the cabin, be- ing about l50 yards away when Mr. Ferris secured his tTusty shot gun and overtaking them demanded them -in the name ot the common wealth of Arizona, to surrender He did not have to repeat the de mand, as a singie look at the weapon was enough to induce them to obey.
 On their arrival at the court house, the men, who strsnuously de- nied the charge, and who claim that they can easily prove aa alibi, were placed in Jail until the case can be investigated.

Many hundreds of people of whom the mania has taken complete possas sion are unable to tear themselves away from the excitement of the game as long as they have So much as nickel remaining in their pock- cts.

 There are slot machines where only merchandise Is gwen in return for winning throws; but there are others in which money iS given. The last named are the most exfen- sively pztronized, and are the most demOrallzing.
 It IS the most dangerous form of gambling, probably, that has ever struck New Orleans. There is hardly a saloon or cigar stand in the city without several of these slot ma chimes.

PROSPECTIVE BUILDING BOOM
Ths Spirit of Progress and Improve ment has Possessed Our Citizens and Will materiaIize in
 the Spring.

The spring of 1900 promises to see one of the biggest building booms iu Prescott eyer experienced by the town. It certainly will if the build ings contemplated, or even a good percentage of them, materialize, and it will afford a rich harvest for brick makers and mechanics.
 The completion of the sewer sys- tenn and the establishing of a per mshent grade, together with the grading of the principal business streets and the improvement of the water works Is the cause which will produce the proposed improve ments.
 Commencing on the east side of the plaza. John Lawler proposes to erect a three story brick with a fifty foot frontage on the lot adjoining the Hawkius-Richards three story building Un the south.
 The the north of the above build ing. on the lots now occupied by the Yavapai Pharmacy and the Bank of Arizona, the erection Of new and modern brick is contemplated by the Bank of Arizona, which will ex- tend back on Gurley street to the building recently erected by the Bank people ard occupied by the Electric company.
 On the same street on the lots now occupied by Mir. Wooster aud the adjoining ones owned by F. NJ. Murphy, it is said he will erect a fine brick block.
 The greater part of office TOW IS to be removed and the present wooden buildings will be replaced with brick.
 On the west side of Cortez a two or three story brick Is to be erected on the vacant lots south of the Pres colt House. This building will have a fity-fOOt frontage and will extend clear back to the alley. On the west side ot the plaza a three story brick will be erected sd- joining the Hotel Burke on the south, covering the lots now occu- pied by Kearney's saloon, Shumate's store and the Owl saloon and will extend clear back to the alley.
 In addition to these, which are practically sure of being built others are being talked, while ar engagements have already been made for the erection of number of fiue new residences.

 To an inquiry as to what figure the free and unlimited coinage Of silver was going to cut in the com ing campaign, he replied:
 Il think 1t will be worked for all 1t is worth m the mineral sections, but 1t will not be pushed very hard in the east, where the idea Is ex- tremely unpopular. In fact, the middle west and the mining states and territories would seem to have had s1Dut enough of it.

 A near personal friend of Bryan is quoted as saying that the latter is not in favor of making silver au issue in the next campaign. He be- lieves the rapid increase iu the pro- duction of gold has obviated the necessity for the free coinage of silver. The party, said he, had never advocated the free coinage of silver for the purpose of simply having the white metal coined, but because they believed that large volume of money was needed. At the time there was DO indication of any great increase in the produc- tion of gold.
