NATIONAL GVARD NEWS.
Changes in TerritoriAl Military Estab-
 lishmont.

The following information relative to recent national guard changes has been secured from the office of Adju- tant-G General H. F. Robinson.
 The resignation of Lawrence w. Quinlan as first lieutenant of I Con- pany has been received and filed, to date from August l7.
 First Lieutenant J. H. Carpenter, regimental commissary, has made ap- plication for and been placed upon the retired list of the National Guard of Arizona. He was commissioned regi- mental commissary October 2S, 1891, and has served continuously since that date.
 The resignation of Colonel Win Wylie as surgeon general has been accepted by the governor and he has been dismissed from the service. A cOmmissson has been issued to Dr. M. NJ.

not designated by law to be entitled to copies free at $5 copy.
 There is a misunderstanding as to those entitled to free copies. This mis- understanding grows out of contradic- tiOn between the law authorizing the publication of the code and the old law, still in force, defining the duties of the secretary of the territory in the matter of the distribution of the laws. That provided that he should furnish to all public officials, sheritfs, district attOr- neys, etc, boards of supervisors and justices of the peace each free copy of the statutes.
 The new law, in the passage of which the old one was overlooked. is much less liberal. It designstes as those to whom copies shall be given free the members of the legislature, the judges of the district court and territorial Otficials.-Republican.

ARIZONA RANGERS.
Burton Mossman Appointed Captain
 of tho Patrol.

Arizona is to have company of rang. CTS, patterned after the noted body of rangers put in the field by Texas. The formation of the rangers was author ized at the last session of the terri torial legislature and it's organization was ordered by Governor Murphy. The governor named as it's captain Burton Mossman, late manager of the Aztec Cattle Company of Navajo and Coco nino counties, now in the cattle busi- ness at Bisbee. To him belongs the credit of breaking up the robber bands that formerly infested Apache and Navajo counties.
 His command will comprise a ser geant and twelve privates, who are to furnish their own horses, but who are to be armed and maintained at public expense. The captain will receive $l2O a month, the sergeant $75 and the troopers $55. The troop will cooperate with the patrols of the New Mexican cattle growers, and is expected to soon rid the border of outlawry.

A SAD ACCIDENT.
Drownins of tho iO-Year-Old Son of Mir. and Mrs. F. R. Nellis at
 Williams Last Friday.

One of the saddest accidents that has occurred in this vicinity for many day, says the Williams News, was the drowning yesterday afternoon, at the dam of the Saginaw & Manistee Lum- Der Company, of Ferdie, the l0-year-Old son of Mir. and Mrs. F. R. Nellis of this city.
 For some time pasS it has been known that numerous large and small boys of the town were frequenters of this res ervOir as bathing place, yet none dreamed that the accident of yesterday was so near at hand.
 During the afternoon party of small boys wandered over the hills to the dam, and after playing around for a while they decided to go in swimming. Among them was young Ferdie. In the water, not far from the bank, is the stump of tree, and this the boys made use of as diving board. Ferdie had climbed upon the stump and was talk ing to his playmates on the bank, when in some manner he overbalanced and fell backward into the water. His efforts to save himself only put him further from the. bank, and after battling for some time in the cold water his strength gave out and he sank, to rise no more. The alarm was immedi- ately given at the pumphOuse and En- gineer Bob Stratton hastened to the scene of the accident. He immediately plunged into the water, not taking time to remove his clothing, and was taken with cramps, barely being able to re- gain the bank alone. As soon as he recovered he hastened into town to tell the sad news.
 The word spread like wildhre and large numbers of people hasteued to the scene to render what assistance they might. Grappling hooks were placed in use, trying to locate the body, and at least three-quarters of an hour were spent in futile attempt to as- certain it's whereabouts. About this time young man named Bernard Deeds, who is employed at the brick kiln north of town, appeared upon the scene, and after learning as nearly as he could the supposed location of the body, divested himself of all uuneces- sary clothing and attempted to recover the body by diving into the muddy water. Five times the young man came to the surface empty-handed, but he was not to be discouraged, and entering the water again he succeeded in find ing the object of his search. The water at this point IS about twelve feet deep. Willing hands aided the young man to make landing and medical attend ance was at hand, ready to do all in the power of man in cases of this kind. All known remedies were tried, and for over an hour Dr. A. G. Townsville worked faithfully to restore life, but without avail. As nearly as could be ascertained the drowning occurred at about 4:30 p. m., and it was not until 6 o'clock that the body was recovered, it thus having been in the water for fnlly an hour and a half.
 The funeral services were held on Sunday at the Methodist church, Rev. Geyer officiating.
