KNOCKED A HORSE DOWN.
Officer Foley's Method Of Stopping a
Runaway.

Officer Edward Foley resorted to he
roic measures to stop a runaway horse
on East Park street yesterday afternoon.
Two boys were driving a young horse,
hitched to a light wagon, ,.oWn the al
ley west of Main street. when the horse
became frightened ana ran away. AS the
horse turned into Park street the oldest
of the boys. a lad named Moriarty, was
thrown out. The smaller boy. who was
only Z or 5 years of age, saved himself
by firmly grasping one of the shafts, and
this was his situation when the officer
saw the runaway horse approaching. He
realized that the boy was IN great dan
ger and resolved to make an effort to
stop the frightened animal. As the horse
came by him he dealt him a hard blow
on the head. The blow was nicely plac-
ed. and had the desired effect, the an
imal making one or two wild jumps and
falling. The little boy received a few
bruises, but was not seriously injured:
The officers gallant deed was witnessed
nv several hundred people and excited
much favorable comment.

John Withers a Sailing Goes.

No one in Kingman had the slight.
est intimation that John Withers was
q natural born sailor until few days
ago when word was brought to Ming.
man that he had successfully navi.
gated the mighty Colorado river. The
story as told us is as follows: The
schooner Hawkins was tied up to the
shore short distance above Pyramid
Rock and it was desired 10 let II drop
down TO the pumping station near the
mill. Mr.. Withers and another gentle.
man cast off the lines holding the bow
fast In shore. As soon rs this line was
cast of the bows of the vessel swung
into the stream and the hawser from
the waist of the schooner parted allow.
ing 1t to shoot out into midstream.
The two men stripped of and prepared
to GO. over the side when the vessel
wen. on the rocks below. but the cur.
rent carried them safely by and landed
them high and dry on barren island
In midstream. Here they made them.
selves as comfortable as possible. with
never cold bot. in sight. In rum.
maging around sail was found and
this was hoisted and by hard work the
vessel was fioated. A good breeze and
skillful manipulation soon landed the
young men on the Arizona shore where
they will probably remain hereafter.

The Pittsburg- Arizona gold and cop
per company has developed group of
claims three quarters of mile from
the one time prosperous smelling town
of Charleston, with the result of an un-
earthing Of mineral thalhas astonished
all those who have lived or Travelled in
that vicinity, says the Cochise Review.
The first of the claims, the Porto Rico,
is situated three-qusrters of mile in
an easterly direction from Charleston.
The Porto Rico contains ore, samples
of which showing free gold in por.
phyritic and quartz formation, are so
rich as to cause surprise among all
experienced mining men who have
seen them. The San Juan, which has
received the most development of any
claims, has yielded an ore pile of no
mean dimensions, running high ia gold,
silver and lead. The lead occurs both
in sand and solid carbonates. A recent
shipment of go pounds of this ore
caused quite sensation among the
mining men who examined it.

Hitting High Places.

Many years ago California river bar
miners were paid l6s day. The first
klondixe miners received like sum
for days work. They hit high places.
Labor was in demand and money was
easily made; employers we're seeking
employees to help them make it. La
boring men did all they could to keep
wages at the maximum. They wanted
to hit high places all along the line.
Self interest was the moving cause, but
the mines wouldn't pay the wages de-
manded. Many miners quit day labor
and branched out for themselves. They
looked for dollar to the pan diggings.
Several found them and others found
less and went further. They wanted
to hit the high places alone. At the
end they all brought up at common
level. They were "dead broke" The
west Is full of high place hitters. They
are dissatisfied with surrounding con-
ditions and are ripe for stampede to
the first heralded alleged Ell Dorado
which spectators and interested par
ties publish to the world. They 60,
they fail, they are conquered-for the
time being.
A few of the would-b be hitters of high
places make u little money, the very
fortunate acquire large fortunes, but
the great mass-and that means ninety
nine hundreGths of the STAN peders-
return to their old camping grounds, if
they escape with their lives, rich only
In the experience they have gained, but
impoverished in health, depressed in
spirit and barren in purse. Their soar
ing hopes were crushed by the shock
they received from their altitudinous
fall. Their ambition was destroyed
and they easily became subjugated to
opposing conditions. Those who re-
mained at their homes aud fou yht their
discouraging surroundings were the
ones who made the money. That is the
experience OF the many who have worn
away their time aud their lives follow
ing the stampedes of early days.
Stampedes do not pay; they are not
sound investments.
The dreamers of quickly made
wealth, of palatial residences upon the
banks of majestic rive. :, or murmur-
ing streams, or babbllng brooks; of
brides and carriages, of balls aud par
ties, of costly apparel and of the ct
ceteraS which the gold of Nome or of
klondike may purchase, are fostering
hopes which may never end in fruition,
but which may lure them away from
their plod ling neighbors who, ia the
lapse of time. may enjoy the real
"stuf" about which the dreamers let
loose their fevered imaginations. "The
rolling stone gathers no moss" neither
does the lille man gather shekels, bat

 Arizona Gazette: Judge Hawkins informed the Gazette yesterday that he was candidate for the nomlna. tion for congress and did not propose to be showed eff the track as hereto fore. "I am not only a candidate" said the Judge, "but propose to be nominated and elected. That is my position on the matter, and there is no going behind the door with me in politics, or anything else" The Judge was in earnest and a contest is now on.
 Prospector: The first simmer of the political pot is the announcement that new paper is to be established in Bisbee within sixty days, as stated in our Bisbee correspondence yester- day. It Is also said that still another paper is to be established at Bisbee before the campaign opens, making three journals for the copper camp. This all looks as if fred hot" cam paign is in sight. Heretofore our elections have been very mild affairs, little or no agitation coming to the surface, but the fever may become contagious and a general miy-up on the political firing line may result.
 Republicans From Prescott papers it seems that Lottie Smith, the lame girl who was in Phoenix last week and worked the citizens to the tune of sl50 or more, has been arrested, tried and convicted of begging. She was fined Sl00. On examination it was fund that she was not lame and was not getting money to go through college with. She had a memorandum book which disclosed the secret that she and her lover were working the towns of the west and in the past two months she had taken in S400. Her lover had planned her trip and she was executing his plans, with the view that he was to marry her when she had collected money enough.
 Graham Guardian. On Saturday last Brig Lee struck fine flow of arte- sian water on bis ranch just five miles southwest from safford. John Morris sunk the well. At ll5 feet a good strong flow of artesian water was en- countered. The last formation en- countered before finding water was a hard clay. The well flows 4430 gallons per hour and is pure water, being by far the strongest flow of artesian water encountered In the vicinity of this well is a fue body of land of which MT. Lee has a l60 acres MT. Lee has built areservoir in which to hold the water and he believes that properly cared for sufficient water will flow to rrigate his entire farm. We congratulate Mir Lee and believe his finding such large flow of water will encourage others to bore for water which will result in a larger portion of the mesa lands being irr!g ated from artesian wells.
