 The Tucson Star which reached here yesterday has the following:
 E. c. Bartlett yesterday caused the arrest of John (Jack) D. Moore on the charge of embezzlement Moore was a martyr for about sixty minutes, having allowed himself to go on rec ord as a prisoner within the jail of Pima county. Bonds were filed and MT. Moore again enjoyed the breezes waited from the shores of the Santa Cruz, or if this be incorrect. from the summit of the Catalinas.
 The suit is brought, as Bartlett claims in view of Moore having sold Pronto. a horse which Moore valued greatly and for the trifing sum of s1O0 to Henry levin, of Nogales. This is one item and Bartlett is ready to keep Jack busy hunting up bondsmen. day after day. Jack says he is ready and that the outcome will be some think startling.
 The situation is truly alarming, but like Macduff in the play, the lawyers Hay on."

NARROW ESCAPE
 IN SAN SIMON
COUNCILMAN ED SCOTT AND J. SUTHERLAND RETURN DIS
 APPOINTED
They Were Caught in Flood and Lost Their Wagon and Provis- ions and Had a Narrow Escape


 Lost Their Wagon and Provis-
 ions and Had a Narrow Escape
 Themselves
 Alderman Ed Scott and Jame. Sutherland very narrowly escaped with their lives last Tuesday while crossing a creek in the San Simon val ley.
 They left here with a wagon load of provisions for Scott's mining claims on Turkey creek and had gone about eighty miles when they came to this dry creek, mile from Chiricahua sta tion. The creek bed was muddy ani hard to pull through and when they got half way across they stopped The sun was shining and the day was perfecly clear and there were no signs of rain anywhere
 Suddenly a wall of water came rush ing down about four feet high and was within fifty yards of them before they saw it. They jumped out of the wagon unhitched the tugs and hurried out just as the flood struck the wagon. The wagon and all it's contents, con =sisting of grub" ammunition, guns, a six shooter, horse feed, bedding. etc, went floating down the river. Everything but their team was swept away
 They began to pick up the wreck age that was strewn along the creek three miles or more finding a wheel here and the wagon box in another place, and dragged all they could find to the railroad, which was eight miles away and shipped them into Bisbee.
 The outfit belonged to MT. Scott, who suffered more than $256 loss alto gether. The provisions were being taken to the claims on Turkey creek where there is crew of men work ing the property. Both men regret seriously the loss but feel extremely grateful that they were not caugh with the wagon, as there would have been no possible chance to escape.

The Bible Business

Trade in Bibles is reported to be ac-
tive and steadily increasing. Accord
ing 10 a writer the Sun, the American
Bible Society issued 100000 Bibles
last year, and the British and Foreign
Bible Society live million. Many other
concerns publish Bibles and sell great
numbers Of them. The Philippines
consumed 10, 700 Of the American
Bible Society's Bibles during u first
year there, and $1,000 during the sec
ond year. TRANSACTIONS Of the Bible
are now being made into five Filipino
dialects. 1t has already been published
in three other dialects by the British
Societies. so that IL will soon be out in
eight varieties OF Filipino language.
Nearly half a million Bibles went into
China last year in spite Of the effect OF
the Boxer outbreak, which, for the
time being, cut down the demand
about one-half.

Here is Secretary of State Cooks
latest chapter to his political hand
book. 1t contains "eoid comfort
for the partisan ~agitators who have
been assailing the Democratic manage.
ment of the State School Fund. Mr..
Cook makes it easy for the people of
every county in the State to see just
how much money they received from
the State for the support Of their
schools while the Republicans were
in power, together with the amount
they received for a like period under
Democratic management. In addi-
ton, he brings TO light the rank dis
elimination against Democratic q
ties in the distribution of this fund.
This information, though taken from
the records, has never before been
made public. Following is the chap
ter, which is given to the press today ;
"There are many Republicans in
Missouri who have not had an oppor-
tunity of investigating the conduct and
management of their State affairs, and
who have had to depend on their party
papers and campaign speakers for in
formation on this subject, who really
believe the State School Fund has been
looted and plundered
IF the Republicans, who think thu:
charge of their party readers is true,
will only take the trouble to examine
the records of their respective district
schools, they viii be amazed at the
showing.
"This simple table, giving tbs
amount of school money each county
received from the State during the sil
years the Republicans were in control.
as compared with a like number o.
years under Democratic management
shows how utterly baseless in thil
campaign charge with which Republi
can party managers have undertakes
TO delade their party followers

assailed the credit of the state, but all
loyal Missourians ought TO be proud
Of the splendid progress their state
under judicious management is max
ing in the support and v~pbuilding Of
her public schools
Prom an average annual distrieu-
tion of only si6i, SIS, under Republi-
can rule, the school moneys have
grown until Missouri this year viii
pay the counties for the support OF
their district schools the magnificent
sum of 81, 200, 600, nearly q quarter of
a million more than they received
during the whole six years the Re
publicans were in power.
.sThis has not been done by an in
crease in the lax rate for state pur-
poses. The rate today is scarcely
half what it was under Republican
rule. This enormous increase in
school moneys is due to the judicious
handling of the school funds and to
the taxntioa Of corporate interests,
which paid nothing when the Re-
pnblioans were in power.
1.-THE growth and development OF
the state has assisted increasing the
annual school receipts, but 70 the
broad and generous school policy in
augunted by the Democrats is largely
due the splendid conditions of today.
This is apparent from the fact that
the average per capita distributed
when the Republicans were in power
was only % go cents. while for the
corresponding period under Demo-
cratic management, it is 81 1-6 cents,
or more than three times as much.
This is not all the records show,
however, on this subject The Re
publicans were not only niggardly
with the schools, but the funds were
disbursed with fragrant partisan par
~tialitv. An examination of the rec
ords left by the Republican State Off
cials show for the year 1865 that the
Repuhlican county of Douglas, with a
population of less than 1000, was paid
more school money than the Demo
: cratic county Of Audrain, with a pop
ulation more than three times as
! large. while the Democratic county OF
Galloway was paid nothing at all.
