 HELD FOR MURDlER.-The pre- llminary examination of John Ruben stein, charged with the murder of Amos Nigh and Pedro Johnson at Scottsdale last Monday, took place in Justice Bur nett's court yesterday. The defense offered no testimony and gave no indi- cation of the line of defense, though, in the nature of things. it can be nothing else than insanity, unless it is desired by the defense that the rope industry he stimulated. All the witnesses for the territory had been subpoenaed and were on hand, but only one of them. W. s. Perry, was examined. He saw the shooting and told what he saw. That is all there, was of the examina- tion. Rubenstein was held to the grand jury without bail for murder in both cases.
 ANOTHER RARE FLOwER.-A rare flower was in bloom yesterday at the resident of Dr. J. Miller in the Simms' addition. It was the flower of a variety of cactus not found in this region, and commonly called the nut meg cactus. The plant was secured from a greenhouse by Mrs. Miller and has been carefully tended for two or three years, during which time several additional plants have bee: p:opogated from it. The flower is perhaps the most beautiful of all the cactus species. Its bud develops slowly at first like all cactus growth, but the last day or 1 two before blooming t makes a won- derful record. The flower and stem is from seven to nine inches lang and the last half of it is brought forth during the last twentyfour hours preceding | full bloom. The flower itself when fully opened up is from six to seven inches in diameter and it blooms in the evening. Its natural tendency is to close the nsxt morning, but by moving the plant into the house che flower can | be kept in bloom all the following day. The color is a very pale rose and deli cately tinted. Within the petals there stands a row of stamens clear around the flower which drools little to one side and on the lower side of the flower. which is bell-shaped, there is mass of stamens clear from the base to the end. In the center of this profusion of stamens there is single star-shaped pistii. It is a most interesting speci- men to a botanlst, for it is as beautiful | as it is rare.
