PLUMBER MANSON
FELL AND DIED
Slipped from Roof of Kameha
meha Girls School Where He
Was Working.

At las p. m. yesterday Robert Man
son, well known plumber, fell from
the roof of the Kamehamehas Girls
School. where he was working, to the
ground, sustaining such injuries that
he died shortly afterwards.
He told a carpenter who was working
with him, that he was going to get his
firepot. The carpenter, George Hitch
ings, heard a noise and seeing the girls
running toward the building came to
the conclusion that something was
wrong. On looking he saw Manson ly-
ing at the foot of the three-story build
ing, apparently dead. He had evident
ly slipped from the roof and fallen a
distance of forty-five feet
The injured man lived but twenty
minutes. Meanwhile DR.. E c. Water
house was summoned and he arrived
on the spot just in time to see Manson
breathe his last. He administered a
strong stimulant in the shape of
strychnine, but his efforts were in vain.
The police were notified, and Deputy
Sheriff Chillingworth was soon on
HdHu ne was quickly SatlSned that
the death of Manson was purely acct
dental.
DR.. Waterhouse said that death was
due to the shock occasioned by the fall
He signed death certificate to that
effect and the Plumbers Union took
charge of the body. The funeral will
take place from H Williams under
taking parlors today.
The deceased was a middle-aged man
and had been here for eight or nine
months He was employed by w. J.
England. He came here from Vancou-
yer and was a prominent member of
he Journeymen Plumbers Association. |
By strange coincidence Manson fell |
rom the same side of the building from |
which. some time ago, a Kamehameha |
school girl jumped to her death from a !
window

while there was no time limit in the
tender, it is understood that the work
of construction will be rushed along.
The first shipment of supplies is ex-
pected to reach here about the first of
March, but it is probable that the work
of dredging for the slip will be inaugu-
rated before that time The work is
much on the order of the naval wharf
work, and there will be a great advan-
tage to the bidders in that thew have
had the experience gained from the |
construction of the docks for the navy
department. The first work u be I'M
dertaken will be the dredging out of
the slip. which is to be lined on ether
side by the wharfs and sheds.
The coral cutting will be practically
of the same nature as that encountered
on the other side, where there had to
be used all the power of the great
dredger which tie Cottons b tilt for the
It is expected that there will
be about the same amount of work, but
that it will be put through in much
less time than that in which the first
work was accomplished. The order s
which will be placed on the coast will
include the piling AMI the square tim I
bers' for the sil1s ana shed lonstfue- {
ton. It is the plan Of the contractor
to put these orders in the hands IF the {
San Francisco agents o. one of the
large local firms. {
Mr.. Cotton said last evening that he {
would endeavor to secure the immedi- t
ate shipment of the supplies which Will t

4 BuIIdozing Threat.

"The papers who are opposing the division of Yavapai county are using the one cry of bribery, but are careful to use no names in connection shere- with, and it is better that they do not, as the gentlemen who have, at the earnest solicitation of the taxpayers of the proposed new county, taken in hand the work of placing this matter before the legislature, have declared themselves as determined to attend to those who in any way liable them as bribers. The fight for the new county will be made on its merits and will win out. ."-Jerome News.
 After reading the above threat, no doubt those papers ''who" are oppos- ing county division will be careful in their talk, andno ''liable" as bribers the honorable gentlemen who have taken in hand the work of placing this mat ter before the legislature" It would be one of the outrageous outrages to accuse any of them of trying to influ- ence a members vote by the use of money. It is not likely, however, that any paper will be intimidated by any threat of the above sort from speaking out its mind on county division, and should bribery develop during the pending of the question the news will scarcely be suppressed.

Passed Worthless Check.

Sheriff s. s. Stout went to Prescott last night on the information that man much wanted in -Phenix is lan7 gushing there in duranae vile. The prisoner. known as J. :. Green, is wanted here for passing worthless cheek for S75 al the AHheuser saloon last Friday \. McCamley, the pro prietOr of the saloon, satisfied himself that the check was all right, but when he presented 1t for payment at the Phenix National bank, on which it was drawn. 1t was found that there was no account credited to J. 5. Green. He reported his loss to the sheriff. but the news was suppressed until the enterprising stranger was captured. Sheriff Stout will return tonight Enterprise.
 The subject of the above item was no other person than Jack Green, former resident of Prescott, mention of whose arrival here was recently made in these columns. Sign & cheeks seems to be weakness of the Green family, as a brother of the above had all kinds of trouble in CO- cOnino county a few years ago over similar transactions.

 ed in the Lines of Your Hand.

Mime. Lela Elrado, a celebrated palmist, arrived in town last evening and is located at the Prescott Hotel, room g, where she will remain for a few days. Mime. Elrado has visited several towns in Arizona and possesses splendid recommendations from prom inent citizens of each of the places visited.
 Mime. Elrado is not a fortune teller, but is simply close student of palm istry, a science as old as the world it. self almost. Every line of the hand has a meaning, and Mime. Elrado, from long years of study and experi- ence, is able to tell just what each one means.
 The remarkable accuracy with which she has told of the past, pres ent and future of those who have wis tied her have been a source of wonder and amazement.
 In addition to reading the hands of all who call Mime. Elrado will give lessons in palmistry.
 Wherever she has gone she has been visited by the best people of the place, as can be seen from the recom- mendations in her possession, which all can see.

FOUGHT FOR A GIRL.
Miners Engage in Terrific Battle Near
 hacosari.

Otto Jenkins, a former resident of Phenix, who has been mining in Mex ico, reached here last night from Bis bee, whence he came from Nacosari district, Mexico. Jenkins tells of a brutal fight there between Thomas Barnes, an American, and one Nor ales, Mexican. The two were infat- uated with native girl and had ire quently quarrelled. Finally they agreed to settle their trouble and that the best man should have the girl. On Tuesday they met, with few friends, some distance from Nacosari, squared a circle and with barred fists, in London prize ring style, fought for forty-three rounds. Both were fright fully punished during the nearly three hours battle and Morales finally fell, senseless from the hundreds of blows rained on his body and head. He is injured internally and Jenkins says that on Thursday the local doc tors declared he could not live. Barnes, too, is severely injured and suffering terribly from his hammer ing. Barnes had the Mexican beaten in the twenty-fifth round, says Jen- kins, but could not finish him and the Mexican fought gamely, several times knocking down Barnes. Finally near ly blinded and bleeding the American made desperate effort and with half dozen blows in the stomach sent Morales down and then fell exhausted.
 The Mexican authorities have done nothing in the matter, according to Jenkins.-Republican.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

A telegram from Philadelphia says that the first step in a general move ment looking to the reorganization of the national democratic party will be taken in that city on February 22 when 300 old line democrats will meet at a democratic dinner and organize the Democratic Club of Phil adelphia. Davit Bennett Hill, of New York, will avail himself of this opportunity to launch his boom for the presidency, and distinguished statesman, who are known to be in sympathy with the early principles of the democracy, will attend as guests. Grover Cleveland and Richard Olney are two of the men who have been asked to participate in the general movement and Mir. Olney consented to attend the meeting and to lend his influence to the project. Mr. Cleve- land has not finally acted upon the invitation, but the managers of the dinner are confident that he will either attend or send a letter that will sound clarion call to democrats every where.
 That brotherly love now being ex- changed by Eddie, the new King, and Billie, his nephew, is so beautiful that its durability is doubted.
 The paragraphers are having fun with the name of North Carolina $ new democratic Senator -Furnifold Me Lendon Simmons.
 When Prince of Wales he was some times accused of being too fond of number one. It may have been to show that he was not that he chose to be King Edward VII, instead of Albert I.
 It will require colored photographs and affdavits, to convince the country that Mir. Cleveland has taken to fox hunting and pink coats.
 The swans dying song was rag time music in comparison with the vail of Mir. Towne, on giving up the seat in the senate he accidently held in the senate for few weeks.
 Without being personal it may be remarked that there seems to be some thing about aspiration to the U. $. senate that develops dogin-the-man ger qualities in men never previously suspected of them.
 As the country has endorsed the idea that-a growing country needs growing appropriations, the wailing in some quarters about the amount of money appropriated by this congress is superhuons.
 The new city council will earn the gratitude of our people if they will provide street crossings whereby pe- destrians can get across the muddy without getting in the mud up to their knees.

GROOM CREEK ITEMS.

Groom Creek, Ariz., January 27.- Editor Journal Miner. Commencing with the Silver King on the mouth of Groom creek to the Lynx creek divide, distance of some two and one half miles, it is net work of large and small lodges running through the country, and on sinking on the mother lodes, the lode not only gets stronger but the ore increases in value with depth, and that is something all the mining companies are doing in this section of the country getting depth.
 At the Monte Cristo mine they are sinking a perpendicular shaft and are now down no feet. They have cut their station and are now crossing for their ledge, and in a few days will commence to sink. They are going to sink 400 feet. Through their tun- nel they are taking out very rich ore and some of it will run up into the hundreds; and they are also class of mining men that are wide awake, with plenty of push that will make this a big paying mine some day.
 At the Home Run mine, managed by Mir. Monihan, they are down 150 feet and are now sinking to the 300 foot level. On the dumps are tons of first class ore, waiting to be milled. They have their new boiler and hoist and as soon as they get these enclosed they will commence breaking ground for their 10-stamp mill, and as nature has favored them with plenty of fine mining timber and water and also good men at the wheel, it is one of the coming mines.
 From the claim that Nick Slumber- ger sold short time ago they are taking out a carload of ore. They are now sinking but they stripped the ledge for 40 feet from six to ten feet deep and then broke down the ledge. This is a very rich chute of ore that came to the surface. It joins MT. Kelly's-patented ground and there are several chutes just like this one on Mir. Kelly's ground.
 At the Empire mine with Smiley Jones as superintendent, and who has been with the company a number of years, and who has brought the mine up to what it is, are now sinking from the 300 foot to the 400 foot level. They are not only opening up their mine but they expect to develop more water. At this mine there is very lit tie to write about, as it is so well known to the public. It is the only mine in this section of the country that is burning crude oil >as fuel and they can get up steam in ten minutes time with it. T. J. l..

TO PROSPECT SOUTH AFRICA.
A Former Arizonan Organizes Party
 to Hunt for a Lost Mine.

John R. Farrell, a well-known Ari. zonan, formerly a resident of Tomb stone, who has figured in various min ing camps in this territory, has inter. ested quite a number of San Fran cisco capitalists in scheme whereby the famous ancient mines of King Solomon are to be hunted for. Far, rell has gotten company of pros pectors together and left San Fran. cisco Wednesday on an expedition tc South Africa in search of these an. cient golden deposits that have come down to us through all kinds of his tory and traditions. There is an idea prevalent in England that John Hay Hammond, the famous California civil engineer, who incurred the dis pleasure of Oom Paul some years agc and was imprisoned and later ex pelled from the .Transvaal, had 1T reality discovered the famous King Solomon gold deposit, but this is only conjecture, but NIT. Farrell will hunt Africa from end to end and find that mine or something as rich, he says, ol leave his bones to bleach on the Afr can sands. The best authority or this subject locates the ancient mine: of King Solomon near Guinea, South Africa.
