A NEW Philippine CODE. The
Philippine Commission has completed
new code Of court procedure for the
islands. The general spanish laws
will remain in force for the present.
when not suspended by acts passed by
the commission, and Spanish will be
the court language until 1906. There
will be no jury trials, as the conditions
are not ripe for such an innovation,
but either party to case will have the
right to have two assessors, to sit with
the Judge, with powers Of advice. There
will be municipal courts, provincial
courts and supreme court; and in
place ~ the old Spanish system of in
definite challenges and appeals, only a
single appeal will be allowed. A p0r-
tion Of the judges Of the supreme court
will be citizens OF the United State.
and others representative Filipinos.

Fire Bugs at Bisbee.

Bisbec was visited by several dis astrous fires last week, which arc sup- posed to have been the work of fire bugs.
 Tho neat four-roCm cottage of Mir. and Mrs. Tom Tate in South Bisbce was entirely destroyed by fire with all it's contents.
 w. w. Sampson's four room house at Brewery Gulch was totally destroyed by fro Monday afternoon at l:30.
 Immediately after the burning of Mrs. Sampson's residence, the alarm of fire was again sounded before the boys had time to reel their hose. This alarm was caused by the discovery oi au incipient fire under the Club saloon on Main street, which however. was soon extinguished.
 What came near being a fourth fire on the same day occurred about s D. m. in the doctors office of the Copper Queen Hospital department. A gaso- line stove was being used in disinfect- ing instruments ana at moment when no one was in the room it blazed up but was carried out of the building be- fore any damage was done.

Tombstone Prpspector.
 The stamps Of the Commonwealth mines at Pearce are hung up, the fires have been drawn, and where only few days ago all was activity desolation reigns.
 This state of affairs was unexpected and is the culmination of the organi- zation of a miners union. About l25 men were employed by the Common wealth company, the most of whom are married and own their own homes at Pearce. Everything was running smoothly, apparently, until few days since it was learned by the manage ment that a union was being perfected by the men. Superintendent Brock man did not take kindly to the orsa- nization. He investigated the pur- poses Of the union and was informed it was beneticiary-to care for the sick, furnish library, recreation, hall. etc. Mir. Brockman volunteered 10 meet all these demands personally, at the same time informing the men that the stamps would be hung up until con sumed by rust before the company would allow a union man to work in the Commonwealth mine.
 They were told that if any grievance existed it would be rectified if made known: that if they desired any orga- uization other than union the com pany would contribute to its mainten- ance and that Mir. Brockman would personally identify himself with the institution. The consideration for these luXuries was d reuunciatlon of union principles, to which, apparently, the men declined to subscribe, and the mine and mill were closed down Saturday afternoon; all attaches were paid in full, many of the single men have left the camp, while those of families are still at Pearcc hoping, possibly, that an amicable adjustment of the difficulty may vet be affected.
 It is hoped, for tho benefit of both the men and the company, that an un- derstanding may be arrived at, where by neither side may feel that a com promise oi principle has been made and the mine and mill will resume operations.

A Sudden Death.

Jim Ewing, who has been in this section for several years, died suddenly at the Copper Queen Saloon Tuesday morning last. He had been complain ing of neuralgia for some days, but was around town. Monday evening he was taken quite sick at his room over the Happy Jack saloon, and got up and came down and entered the Copper Queen saloon, where he laid down on sofa in rear room. Doctors were sent for, and visited him. They left him resting easy, and he soon fell asleep. In the morning he was found dead. A coroner's inquest was held, which de- cided that he came to his death through natural causes. He had not been drinking for some time. His death was a surprise to his many friends around town. The remains were laid to rest Wednesday last. Deceased had relatives living in Apache county.

An Important Arrest.

Deputy Sherifrs John Parks and Lee Hobbs visited the Blue country last week and arrested sidney Johnson, who, it is alleged, held up a saloon at Naco several weeks ago and relieved it ot Sl20O in Mexican morey, and dis appeared, since which time no trace of him was had until his arrest. He is . hard-looking young mana mere boy. He was most indifferently clad, and did not have the appearance of ever having had any money. He was brought into Clifton and taken to Solo, monville by the deputies who made the arrest and he acknowledged to them that he had gambled off his money, but denied having been implicated in the hold-up. From Solomonvilie he was taken to Benson by Sherin Parks. where he was turned over to the sheriff of Cochisc county, who at once recog- nized the prisoner as the man wanted. He is now in jail at Tombstone, and il proven guilty will no doubt get sen- tence of several years at Yuma.
 The capture of the highwayman is a good card for the sheritf's office.

It is understood that the three tunnels located by Mir. Parish will be driven by day and night shifts and that fine electrical drills are being employed. There can be no question that the Clifton Consolidated people are proceeding with care and intelligence, and a>=enploying the bestS talent to make a huge success. THE ERA repeats its prediction that the Consolidated proposition will soon take it's place among our great copper producing companies.

The Public School.

l The trustees having decided to open school next Monday, November I, the teachers desire to have few words with parents and others interested in | its progress.
 i It was the hope and expectation of the principal that the school would not again be opened in the old build- ing and that the present term would begin under more favorable auspices. It. however, becoming unavoidable, we will continue, as in the past, to make the best of adverse conditions. But it should be understood, once for all, that We cannot hope to have a model school until the new building is in use and adequate teaching force employed.
 Last year our one thought and pur- pose was to increase the average at tendance, and thereby the apportiou- ment naturally, laxity Of discipline and disorder grew out of it. This year, while looking carefully to the attendance and hoping to raise it be- yOnd even the present high average, we intend to adopt more rigid methods Of discipline. It Is not meant that there will be a prOmiscuOus and indis- criminatc use Of the rod. It simply means that there will be set rules to which there must be absolute and per feet obedience and that incOrrigible l,o .,apanlnI The good of the many cannot be sub- ordiuated for the misconduct of a few.
 Again there must be good order in the rooms during school hours. The trustees require it and parents should support Us in our efforts 10 secure 1t. To prevent disorder, we have not so much to improve the conduct of pupils as a whole as to overcome previously acquired bad habits of study. The noise without from passing trains be- ing so frequently deafeOing, it should not be surprising that it cOnduces to within. Whatever disorder there may be at any time, it will be the hum Of business and not the result of insubordination.
 We ask parents to support us, re- that it is essential to the progress of tho school and the good of their children. We ask that they give us the benefit of their criticism and not their children. You will thus help Us and help them. All pupils will be treated justly and impartially and every effort and incentive will be used for their moral and intellectual growth. It is important to remember that the home, as well as the school, is a factor in the education of a child.
 Respectfully,
 l. F. WILLIAMS.

Magazine Explodes at Phoenix.

Phoenix, Ariz., Oct. 2O.--The Will Hams powder magazine on the Santa F'e Pacific near town, exploded today, causing a terrific concussion, and breaking glass out of windows in all parts of town.
 The explosion was caused by sparks from a switch engine. The engine showed the effect of the bombardm ment. The cars were splintered, but the train crew escaped miraculously.
 It was fortunate that the magazine, which usually stored several thousand pounds of powder contained only few hundred. Most of the powder was re- moved the day before.

The law makes it the duty Of the clerk of each school district, not later than twenty days after the announce ment of each school term, to furnish a deputy sheriff, constable, city marshal or other peace officer with a list of names of all children between eight and fourteen years of age not in attend ance at school.

Rocking With Gold.

Tucson, Arizona, Oct. 21.-Charles k. and Porter w. Fleming are in from their gold find in the Galucia Noun tains, bringing a thousand pounds of samples from different places on their mammoth ledge. The specimens are the finest ever seen in tbis city, some pieces being wired together with gold. The rock carrying the highest values is quartz porphyry, while associated with it is pholomite, which also car ries free gold. They report that they have cut an additional ledge from the first one reported, which is thirty feet wide and will average over S25 to the ton. The last find makes this beyond question the largest gold discovery ever made in Arizona, if not in the Rocky Mountain region. The Flemings are reliable, conservative men, experienced in mining. Miners in from tho district yesterday described the property as mammoth in size and fabulous in rich. ness. They state there is over Sl5,0o0,- GOO in sight on one side of the gulch, without sinking foot deeper.
