FOUND GUILTY.
The tialaerman Brothers to Hang For
 TheirCrime.
From the Tombstone Prospector.l ]

From the Tombstone Prospector.l
 We, the jury do find the defendants Wm. and Thos Halderman guilty of the crime of murder as charged and afix the penalty at death
 Such was the verdict of the jury and such is the penal retribution to be meted out to the accused as punish ment for their crime in murdering Teddy Moore and c. L. Aiasworth.
 The prisoners when they heard the verdict read showed no signs of emotion and their unfeeling nature was the more forcibly impressed upon those who had witnessed their appar- ent unconcern. In leaving the court room in charge of officers their elasticity of step or general demeanor was not affected any more than their usual walk over the same ground to and from the court room during the past four days of their trial, Neither said word of comment to the other, and no uneasiness exhibited by either yet by the verdict they had just heard their lives were to be forfeited for the crime they now stand guilty. The news of the verdict spread abont town rapidly and from the many ex- pressions heard meets with general favor of the populaee.
 1 After three days trial and one days argument the case was submitted to the jury about 10 p. n. last night and the verdict was returned this morning at the opening of court. ] From legal standpoint the case was stubbornly fought. Capable and distinguished counsel were appointed for the prisoners by the court and stronger plea, considering the circum. stances of the case, would be hard to find than Attorneys Jas. Reilly and Marcus A. Smith made in defense of the prisoners in their able arguments before the jury. ca the other hand District Attorney Land and Attorney A. R. English for the prosecution pre- sented ineontrovertable arguments in a masterly and convincing light, and also received deserved encomiums on their efforts. Everything was con ducted in a fair and impartial manner and the verdict is regarded as a just one.
 The date for receiving sentence has not yet been set by the court, but it is expected the prisoners will be arraigned on Saturday next to be in- formed of the date of execution of the death penalty.
 It is understood that if Q new trial be denied. the attorneys for the prisoners will appeal to the Supreme Court asking for retrial. What will be done remains to be seen.
 The history of the case is fresh in the minds of our people, the cold blooded and shocking circumtances of the death of the two officers while arresting their men, and who but a few moments before were engaged in i friendly conversation with their pris- oners, had granted them every free dom, and in return were killed while least expecting any hostile demonstra- ton is in effect the reyolting details of the crime for which they must now pay the full penalty of the law.

Sam Again a Father.
[From the Phoenix Gazette.l

Samuel F. Webb yesterday did not come 70 town 10 buy ginger cakes and pop beer for "the boys" Even around home, so Doctor Hughes reports, Sam did not fly around with suspenders hanging and hair on end. There was no indication of unusual excitement about Sam at all yesterday. Yet there was time when Sam did all these things and wondered why everybody else was not as excited us he was. But that was a long time ago. Now he sits quietly under a shade tree and calmly smokes his pipe while the doctor reports as follows: Another gal, Sam. Nine pounds"

An Official Mining censorship.
[From the Phoenlx Enterpr.se.l


 tFron the Phoenix Enterprise.l
 Official warning. by means of proc lamation of the governor, has been served on 3 number of mining com panies. that do not meet the ap- proyal of the chief executive of this territory. This sudden spasm of virtue, if it comes with desire to protect legitimate mining, might be pardonable. But there have not been official warnings to protect the people against the funding of illegal bonds and other lines of corruption. So far as is known, 1t is outsiders that are pushing these wildcat mining stocks. But it will be dangerous precedent to establish, to require the official sanction of Murphy, his mining expert and his newspaper trust. before prop erty can be placed on the market. The Enterprise will keep an eye on the mining censors.

Lake City, s. C., where the negro postmaster was killed by mob some months ago, is having most trying and expensive experience. The town has been entirely cut off from the postal service and letters cannot be mailed or received there, or posted on passing trains. Tine nearest post office is four miles away, and as con sequence the business of Lake City is going to pieces. This is heroic treat ment and doubtless will prove thoroughly effective in preventing the assassination of officials of the govern mcnt in that part of the country.- I Los Angeles Times.
