was the 1OD that got the young man into trouble.-Tucson Star.
 About g o'clock last evening Doe Gamble, a bartender at the Legal Ten der saloon in Tucson, fired two shots from a revolver at Billy Fogarty, one shot taking effect in the latter's hand. The shooting occurred in the Legal Tender saloon and was the continuation of a quarrel carried on between the two men during the evening. The Star says that when the shooting com menced there was a lively stampede by l those in the saloon for fear of bullets Fogarty's wound is slight
 The Star says of the ball game at Tucson. Friday, between the Fl Paso team and the Grays: The game yes terday afternoon was one of the most 1 interesting ever seen in Tucson. Both teams played to win and it was any hody's game up to the last inning. Ex- cellent field work characterized the playing of both teams. Tucson was unfortunate in not being able to make hit when most needed. Several times they went out with men on bases, while the Fl Paso players were more often caught at first. Moves catching and Drachman's batting were features of , the Tucson boys playing.
 The residence of Hall Hanlon on the California side of the river seven miles below Yuma was totally destroyed by fire at 10 o'clock last Thursday night. The family had retired early and when the fire was discovered it had gained such headway that MT. and Mrs. Han lon barely escaped with their lives. Nothing of value was saved except some papers which MT. Hanlon saved at a great risk. This is the second disaster MT. Hanlon has met with in recent years. The flood of 1891 com pletely destroyed his residence and he was just getting his place fixed up comfortably again. The origin of the fire is unknown. MT. Hanlon's loss is about $1.OOO. The family came to outfit of clothes and household goods. MT. Hanlon will rebuild at once.- Yuma Sun.
 without any provocation or excuse, wickedly and feloniously shot and killed Miss Wahl, a young Mexican girl at Springer in Apache county. The murderer was apprehended, indicted and convicted of murder in the first de- gree last week at the St. Johns court, and was sentenced to be hanged on Friday, the first day of next December.
 H. F. Ashurst of Williams, was ap- pointed by the court to defend the murderer. The Flagstaff Gem says it was a painful duty for the young at torney to perform, whose tenderness and sympathy was on the side of the murdered girl, her relatives and friends. But notwithstanding this, he made an able and eloquent argument before the jury in defense of the pris- oner. He did his whole duty, and no doubt he firmly believes the jury that convicted the murderer did it's duty in the premises. The verdict meets the approval of all citizens who respect hu- man life.
 Pat Trainer one of the best known and most noted cattlemen of Apache county, mysteriously disappeared just before the commencement of the late term of court, says the Winslow Mail. Pat was one of the most successful cattle raisers this portion of the south west has produced. When he deter mined to embark in the cattle business he purchased an old stag. and that was the only animal he was ever known to have purchased. His herd increased, however, until in three or four years he had some four or five hundred head of cattle. His cows were all of a pe- culiarly prolific breed, invariably drop ping twins and very often triplets. His memory was also remarkable. If dispute arose over any animal bearing his brand, no matter how long it had been since he had seen it, he could de- scribe every hair, spot and blemish on it, and swear positively to its mother. But it appears that Pat has lost his cunning and his country at one and the same time.
 Florence Packard, the veteran lion killer, came in last Sunday with $130 worth of lion and bear scalps, says the Globe Times. He states that he had been in the habit Of killing his lions with 9 till he had a close rub with an immense brown bear recently, since which he bought him a 30-30. On that occasion the dogs surrounded the bear, which, catching sight of him, ran over the whole pack of dogs and came for him. He ran around dense clump of brush and thought to elude bruin, but to his consternation found the brute at his heels. Turning around he took the only chance left him, fired at the animals head at a distance of twenty feet. The tiny bullet entered the bears neck, checking his advance slightly, which gave the dogs a chance to come up. Packard took advantage of the short combat that followed and flew for his life. He escaped, the bear was not killed, and since that Packard car ries a gun which gives him a chance for his life.
