ACCIDENTAL MILL FIRE.
The Stamp Mill of the Montgomery Mining Company on Lynx Greek
 Totally Destroyed Last Night

Hon. A. J. Doran, superintendent of the Montgomery Mining company, which is operating the Accidental mine on Lynx creek, who was in town last night, was awakened from his slumbers about midnight to be in formed that the mill of the company had been totally destroyed by fire. No particulars were given, but Mir. Do ran thinks that the mill must have been in operation at the time, and does not know how the fire origi- mated.
 The building was constructed to ac- commOdate ten-stamp mill, but dur ing the development period of the mine only five stamps had been put in. Mir. Doran had progressed sui ficiently with the development work to justify the addition of the other five stamps and had about completed arrangements for increasing the ca pacity of the mill.
 The loss is estimated at $500, with no insurance. Mir Doran stated that he was just waiting until the addi- tion could be made to the mill when he intended to insure the entire plant.
 When asked as to what the com pany would do in the matter, MT. Doran stated that they rebuild, but owing to the lateness of the season they will probably not do anything until spring, and in the meantime work will be pushed on the further development of the property.

Rains in the South.

A good soaking rain has visited this section and did a wonderful amount of good. The Dragons yesterday afternoon was visited by probably the heaviest shower in years while the rain here lasted all night. A good rain is also reported in the valley Tombstone ProspectOr.
 Tucson has at last been visited with a genuine rain storm. All pre- vious storms were only samples. The rain was driven by the winds and soaked the earth well. Incidently it soaked whoever was unfortunate enough to be caught in it. There was water ill the Santa Cruz yester- day so deep that it was impossible to ford it. The Rillito was running deep and all of the ditches were filled to the brim. It is unfortunate that the water did not come earlier but what did come is more than welcome. Citizen.
 Capt. Ed. Grindel came in from Fort Lowell where he says more Wa ter fell within the last few days than has fallen in a year. The Rillito is three feet deep below the fort and the Pantano is so deep that fording is impossible. The roar of rushing wa ter across the plaza at the fort during the heavy rain, something rarely heard, was loud enough to keep one awake. The ditches were not injured by the waters although two inches more in them would have hurt them badly-Citizen.

A big Tax Payment.

H. J. Allen. the financial manager of the United Verde Copper company arrived in town on today's south bound freight train and proceeded direct to the county treasurer office where he paid into the treasury of the county ythesumofSI9, .S0theamount of taxes due from the above company. Mir. Allen is the most prompt man in the county in the payment of taxes as he is always on hand within a few days after the tax roll is received by the treasurer and pays the company 's taxes. It is always one of the most payments made, too. as it comes at a period when the treasury is at a very low ebb.
 In addition to the above amount of taxes paid for the company Mir. Allen paid the taxes on other mining claims in which W. \ Clark is interested, but not belonging to the company, which swelled the aggregate amount paid by him to S20,340,30, a snug little sum to add to the county exchequer.

ARlZ0NA'S GLORY.
The Splendid New Capitol Building at Phenix---May Hasten Statehood.
 Built by Texas Men.

A correspondent of the Fl PasO Herald writing from Phenix gives the following description of Arizona's new capitol building:
 Arizona has a new capitol building, located at Phenix, the capital. The supberb structure Is a monument to the labors of Texas men, and its com pIetion is regarded as another step toward statehood. Dedication cere- monies will probably be deferred un- til the next session of the legislature which convenes during the coming winter. but the building is now ready for occupancy. Secretary Charles H.. Akers has moved into his new quar- ters and he hoisted flag during i'm pressive ceremonies. Governor \. O.. Murphy and other territorial officials will be installed in their new quar- ters within a few weeks.
 The territorial legislature four years ago appropriated Sl00,OOO for the con struction of the capitol. The amount was supplemented by S25,OOO ap- propriation by the following legisla- ture and construction was carried out according to plans drawn by J. Riley Gordon of San Antonio, Texas, which were accepted in a $500 prize contest. The completed structure planned by Mir. Gordon calls for an expenditure of about S750,000. The present building presents a finished appear ance, but it is constructed in such a manner that wings and additions may be annexed when necessary without destroying the symmetery,
 The material used Is almost entire ly the product of Arizona. The structure is patterned after one of the five classes of IOnic-Grecian archi- tectural beauty. It is fire proof and has an exterior of stone The fOun- dation is of malapai rock, the base ment of granite, and tufa, a superior kind of granite found in the Yavapai mountains of northern Arizona, Is the material used in the super-structure. The stone capitol Is surrounded by a magnificent park, laid out several years ago in anticipation of the cree tion of a capitol building at that site.
 The belief that the new building will assist this territory in attaining statehood is founded upon the admis- sion of various other territories which was brought about largely on account of the progress of the people and in clination to govern themselves, man ifested partly by the erection of large and expensive capitol buildings. Idaho was particularly favored be- cause of the territoty's capitol, and at the time of its admission congress granted the state large tracts of pub lie lands to compensate the expense of building the capitol.
