LOCAL IN BRIEF.


The Peak Sisters drew a full
house Tuesday pight. AS the sis.

during the performance, they APP
pear only once in a place because
once is all the dear people will
stahd--ot words 10 that effect. The
Peak Sisters are the most evenly
balanced aggregation Of barn
slorners that ever buneoed this
community. individually and col.
Iectlvely they are what would be
called bun" If they were brothere
instead Of sisters. Our respect for
the sex will not permit us 10 use
the word. But they can't sing,
they can't elocute, they can't ges.
tieuiate--lhat il, gracefully and
appropriately. The leading soprano
was very alGtudihous. She could
be heard above d whisper-a big
whisper. One rather pleasant and
intelleetual-looking sister gagged"
some Of Toledo's male citizens in &
rather artistic manner, and the
larger OF the little twins--tliere
were two Of them, you know--did
likewise, but no deaths resulted.
The pretty tolefable old sister who
was "tlue TO Brother Speets" was
as soft and sentimental as q spring

feffeshment booths were very pretty
and artistic and 50 were the lap

served the refreshments which fol.

Sisters for Cape Nome were of the
best quality and met with a hearty
reception, The affair was under
the auspices of the local Womtn Of
Woodcraft, and 1t added much to
their regulations as entertainers.

 We have examined into eighteen cases brought to our attention. We have returned indictments in twelve of this number, and have ignored six cases.
 We, by our committee have ex amined the county jail and the persons confined therein, and find no one illegally confined.
 The condition of the jail building is such that we consider it unsafe, and recommend that steel cells be procured at once and be placed in position
 It has been brought to our attention that in g. case of misdemeanor brought against one w. J. N.

By advice of District Attorney Harlow this case was dismissed without ap- parent cause. We recommend the dismissal eff Justice Wylie from his office and do hereby severely censure the actions of both District Attorney Harlow and Justice Wylie.
 For the reason that the offices of the several county officials were ex- amined by the last grand jury less than year ago, we have not consider ed it necessary to put the county to the expense of re-exa mination this session.
 We express our thanks to Justice Davis for his kindness and attention during our session.

Derry's Body Found.

A dispatch was received here yester- day giving the information that the body of E. W Derry had been found near Nacosari, Sonora, ninety eight miles below Bisbee. The remains had been buried on the spot where tent
 stood and which had been occupied by Brown and Derry during their sojourn in that locality. There is evidence of murder from the fact the bullet holes in the skull of the man showed this.
 Ever since the arrest of J. c Brown, the idea of Derry's murder has been hinted at by off cials tnd others, and it remains for the positive proof of Browns connection with the murder to be shown. Brown was released a few weeks ago on $l,00O bail; It is thought he has gone east. The charge here was forgery No one appeared with warrant from Santa Cruz county for Brown, hence 1t was inferred that the Santa Cruz county officials had nothing tangible upon which to hold him.
 Furti.er light is expected as regards to the latest story given above.- Star.
