BOUND OVER.
The Accused Rapist Held to the
 Grand Jury.

The young man, W. E. Herring who was on Saturday brought here from Benson for safe keeping because of his being charged with having committed the crime of rape upon the person of the little daughter of H. Kemp, of Ben son, was this afternoon held to await the action of the grand jury in default of bond in the sum of 5000, says the Tombstone Prospector.
 The examination was held behind closed doors in the sheriff's office that the gratifying of prurient curiosity might the more readily be avoided. and was conducted within the sound of the work being done in erecting the gallows to be prepared for the execution of the Halderman brothers to vindicate the majesty of the law.
 In the course of the examination Mrs. Kemp, the mother of the child. and the victim of the crime, a bright and pretty, but apparently frightened little tot of four and a half years testi- fled, as also did Doctors Southerland and Nesbitt, both practicing physicians Of eBnson.
 Herring made a brief statement as- ssrting his entire innocence, after which Justice Schuster at once stated: Tt is clear that the crime of rape has been committed and the order is that the prisoner be remanded to the custody of the sheriff to await the ac- tion of the next grand jury his bail be- ing fixed at S5OO0."
 Herring is a young man, not appar- ently being over 25 years, and during his stay in Benson has been in the em- ploy of the Southern Pacific. He has hardly the appearance of one capable of the terrible crime with which he is charged. At the examination he was not represented by counsel. District At torney Land appearing for the terri tory.

NETHERLANDS LITTLE ARMY.

There is no country in Europe, with the exception of the little governments of Monaco and San Marine, which spends less for military purposes than Switzerland. The annual cost of it's army is only about $5OO,O 900, and yet. in case of necessity, it can put into the field within two days 100000 trained soldiers and retain at the same time an other 100000 as reserves in addition to it's militia, numbering 27O,O0O men.
 In Switzerland young men are trained to become good rifle shots, and there Is not hamlet in the country without a volunteer association formed for this purpose. Military service is also com pulsory from the twenty-second to the thirty-second year 45 days service be- ing required during the first year and 16 during every subsequent year. The soldiers keep their weapons and uni forms at their own homes and are held responsible for them by the govern ment. which insp5cts them carefully once year.-New York Herald.

HODGES MINING DISTRICT.
Another Rich Gold Field Not Far
 From Yuma.

George Hodges came in Monday from his mining properties in Riverside county, situated near the river and about eighty miles from Yuma, says the Sentinel. A new mining district has been organized there which is known as the Hodges mining district.
 MT. Hodges holding comprises a group of about thirteen claims of gold bearing quartz and the average assay is about s65 per ton. The lowest average of any one of the claims is not lower than $10.
 The group comprises the following claims: La Marrita, Fl Recuerdo, The Old Cow. The Golden Star, The Gold Nugget, The Gold Chain, The Gold Locket, The Wild Goat The Ameri- can Flag, The Military. The King of California and The Gold Bullion, George is the principal owner but as fociated with him are Santiago Lopez. P. B. Hedges, Frank and Albert Hod- ges and l.. J. F. Jaeger. A two-stamp mill was taken Up the river a short time ago which will be in operation by tha middle of September. The group will, without a doubt, prove one of the greatest mining properties of the south
 
 has been done and the owners now have enough ore in sight to pay for a ten stamp mill and clear S4O,OOO. Enough ore at $10 ton and up is already in sight to run fifty stamps The Marrita claim assayed $1.25 on the surface, at thirteen feet S29.14 and at twenty-two feet $50, which proves that the mines go down. An abundance of wood and wa ter are contiguous to the property everything being favorable for the sue cessful operation of the mines
 The first discovery was made about three months ago by George and San tiago Lopez and since that time the various other claims have been located The owners already see visions of paIa- ces and automobiles, a life of wealth and ease. We hope their golden dreams will be fully realized

A LARGE PARTY OF ONE.

A Coney island excursion steamer was leaving New York with but few passengers aboard. The boat had just cast off when a stout gentleman with a very red face rushed down the pier and flourishing his stick, shouted Hey, captainl Put back-put her quick. Here's a large party wants to go.'
 The captain was at first derisive, but finally shouted from the pilot house: How large is the party?"
 For an instant the fat man hositated. Then he yelled back: Between sixty and seventy"
 As soon as the captain heard this number he instantly ordered the steamer back and made fast again. The fat man waddled across the gangplank. and, picking out a nice deck seat famed himself with his straw hat. Meanwhile the captain and his crew waited for the party to arrive After waiting five minutes and more, the captain turned impatiently toward the stout gentleman and said: "Where's your party between sixty and seventy? This boat can't wait all day for them. ,"
 "Oh, that's all right replied the fat passenger, with a bland smile. I'm the party; 65 today sir'
 The captains face grew redder even than the passengers as he furiously rang the bell to steam ahead, but the fat gentleman at once became the hero of the boat.-Collier's Weekly

two years and was honest and indus trious. The saddest phase of his case is that he leaves a young wife and two babies to mourn his sad death. The youngest child was born here last win ter. Shortly after the birth of the child MT. Howe went to Globe via Tonto Ba sin, on the stage. He did not like it thsre so went on to Morenci. The Wheeler referred to in the account of the killing must have been the Will Wheeler who lived here about eighteen months, and who was employed as fireman at the United Verde works. He and Howe were in the firemen's strike for higher wages last summer, and were discharged with the balance of the gang. Wheelers initials are w. F. The initials given in the report of the Re publican are J. F. It must be the same Wheeler, as the two men were great friends, and were together much of the time. Wheeler was a good boy and had many friends in town. He attended most of the dances given in Jerome while he was here. Mrs. Howe went to Morenci in February to join her hus- band. They owned a house and lot in the lower end of town, which is still the property of Mrs. Howe. Of course it is possible that the w. H. Howe who was murdered is not the Howe formerly of this place, but in all probability it is our citizen, as he was employed by the Detroit Copper company, and The Re publican states both Wheeler and Howe were employees If that company. I am of the opinion that MT. Howe joined the Knights of Pythias in Jerome last summer.

WALES FAITH IN SCIENCE.

One of the nest hOnored and con- spicuous figures in the public life of Great Britain during the last half-cen- sketch appears in the North American Review. The vast sanitary improve mcnts which have taken place in Eng land within tE-rty years and the evolu- tion of the whole system of scientific and technical instruction are due to Playfair more than to any other man.
 He originally suggested the adoption of open half-p5nny letters, now known as post cards ' and he was largely in strumental in suggesting the basis of an equitable agreement between Great Britain and America when President Cleveland's Venezuelan message had brought the two countries into dan gerous antagonism.
 Among Playfair's students at the uni versity of Edinburg was the Prince of Wales, of whom a curious anecdote is told:
 Tt was while the Prince of Wales was living in Edinburg, as PIayfair's pupil in the application of science to industry, that an interesting incident occurred. The two were standing near a cauldron containing lead, which was boiling at white heat.
 Has your royal highness,' asked Playfair, any faith in science?'
 Certainly was the reply
 "Playfair then carefully washed the princes hands with amonia to get rid of any grease that might be on them.

The injured man is quite weak.
 The Republican isn't doing a thing to the Los Angeles Times in Jerome but sweeping it from the map of the town. When the union is thoroughly organized here the Times is liable to find itself boycotted.
 A number of young men from the works are going out on Oak creek this week to spend two weeks camping out.
 Mrs. Harlan. wife of the organizer of the United Moderns, will come up to stay few weeks With her husband in our town. They will probably rent a house and stay awhile with us. After a person has been in Jerome a few months and smelled the delightful sul- phur fumes. there is no other place that will satisfy them. After organ izing here Messrs. Jackson and Harlan expect to go down on the Verde and organize a lodge there. Your correspondent will accompany them to introduce them to the good peo- pie there, and if they are not queered it will be a strange thing. Look out for a letter or two from the Verde val ley in a short time. The Verde people are all right. and their farms are as good as any in Arizona today.
 There seems to be a splendid chance to secure water works for Jerome now in a short time. Senator Clark has promised to take up the paper of the town whenever the suit against the town is settled in favor of incorpora- tion as it undoubtedly will be settled.

Antonio Guyamello, refused to sit at the table designated by Wilson at the end of the dining room. Cal told the fellow to take seat at the end table, because the one where he started to seat himself was filtered with dirty dishes. The Italian refused to do as requested and a row started in which Cal wrapped an iron bar around Guya- mello's head. The Italian is in the hos pital and Winosliu sn i-Serallytn1'ars-r pital and Wilson is under $50 bonds to appear this afternoon.

 Do you tell me to do this?" asked the prince.
 T do,' was the answer.
 "The prince instantly put his hand into the cauldron and ladled out some of the boiling lead without sustaining any injury. It is a well known .cien- tific fact that the human hand, if per fectly cleaned, may be placed uninjured in lead boiling at a white heat, the moisture of the skin protecting it. un- der these conditions, from any injury. Should the lead be at a temperature perceptibly lower the effect would be, of course, very different"
