Fortieth Year.

whistle alarmed the people of Prescott
yesterday afternoon by It's shrilI
blasts. The cause of the note OF alarm
sent forth by it was the burning of
box car on the railroad Y just west of
/ Prescott.
The south bound freight train ar
rived about three hours late. 1t had
a car load of powder in it for Brown
Bros. Immediately on the arrival of
the train the car load of powder was
cut out of the train and switched to
the spur Cd the end of the Y. In less
than half an hour afterwards the fire
was discovered. The only plausible
theory of the origin of the fire is that
it was caused by a spark from the en-
CINE which took it to the Y.
1t was most fortunate that the DOW
der burned up instead of exploding.
The value of the powder is said to
have been between $1,000 and $4,000
and makes the second one lost ON the
road during the present month.
The change which is now going ON
in the railroad shops in converting
the engines from coal burners to oil
burners cannot be accomplished too
soon. The loss in these two powder
car accidents alone would more than
cover the entire expense, besides the
greater safety provided to bridges and
other property during the warm dry
months of summer.

Murderer Captured.

The Bisbee Review of a recent issue
has the report of the capture of a
Mexican murderer by the name OF
Cbon Rivas, in New Mexico, where h'
is now being held until requisitior
papers can be secured for his return
to Arizona, where the crime was com
mitted. The Review stated that the
murder was committed in Prescott,
which is an error. Sheriff Roberts
today received an account of the kill
ing from Constable Bosche. of Con-
gress, where the killing took place.
He stated that Rivas and Jose Lara
were in the Star saloon playing bill
lizards when a quarrel started. Rivas
left the building and in few minutes
came in again and walking up to
within eight feet of his victim shot
him twice and then fled, the wounded
man dying in few minutes. There
we're three witnesses to the crime, all
of whom are still in Congress, and as
the murder was committed in cold
blood, there will be no difficulty to
convict the prisoner.

THE WORST COAL
MINE DISASTER
In the History Of the
State Of Wyoming.
Explosion in Which Twenty Are
Known to Be Killed-Fate of
Two Hundred Unknown.

Hanna, Wyo., June 30.-The worst
coal mine disaster in the history OF
Wyoming occurred here in mine No.
one of the Union Pacific Coal CON-
pany at eleven o'clock today, when
terrific explosion took place. Two
hundred men were at work under
ground at the time.
The explosion set fire to the mine.
Not less than twenty are known to
have been killed outright. Although
the mine is we'll ventilated the loss of
life will be very great, but at the
present time cannot be estimated.
At the present time not a man has
found his way to the surface. A res
cue party is working diligently to
save the imprisoned men.

Prescott Selected.

r. n. Frederick, cashier of the
Prescott National Bank, received an
official notification today from l.. NJ.
Shaw secretary of the treasury, of the
selection of the Prescott National
Bank as a depository for public
money. In this selection Prescott,
as we'll as the bank, has been greatly
honored. This is the only depository
for public money in Arizona, there
having been none in the territory for
the past several years, and all public
money collected in Arizona had to be
deposited either in Los Angeles, at
the government depository, or with
the sub treasury at San Francisco,
while all internal revenue money was
sent to Santa Fe, n. NJ.
This action of the government,
aside from being a great convenience
almost positively assures the fact THAT
tie work of rebuilding and enlarging
Whipple will be carried forward to a
satisfactory conclusion, and that many
thousands of dollars will be spent in
Prescott. 1t also shows the rating the
city has from a banking standpoint,
aud the confidence of the government
in our banking institutions.

THE SOUTHERN MOCKING BIRD
By DR.. S. N. Wright.

by LII. ,. VI. Wright.
Oh, hooking bird oh, hooking bird
Come listen unto me
For of all the gleeful sOngsters,
l must give the praise to thee.
You awoke me in the morning
With your morning glory song
And of all the serenaders,
You're the best that came along.
You awoke me not so rudely
When you sang in merry glee,
As some others who we're troublesome
And noisy; don't you see?
But you perched upon an orange
Or some other kind of tree;
On the lawn about my window
And you sang a song to me.
And when 1 was gently waking,
Yet asleep enough to dream,
Then 1 dreamed 1 heard sweet music
And most lovely did it SEEM
Oh! how softly you did wake me
And how glad l was to hear
Such an anthem as on warbled,
In tree so very near.
1 have heard some glorious music,
Half asleep and wide awake,
But | never heard such music
As the mocking bird can make.
Talk about your time and rhythm!
He's a singer none the less,
And he caps a wondrous climax,
Though he does it all by guess.
Listen let me tell you something
OF this bird of paradise.
He was Matched with earthly mission
More than catching bugs and flies
On lovely southern morning
Scarce a ripple in the air
When the atmosphere is lovely
And it's blissful to be there,
Then quite early in the morning.
When the dark has gone away.
On the top of some Old tree top
He will introduce the day.
/ Not another bird is moving.
/ Not a song have they begun,
Not note will any MARBLE.
Till the mockiug bird is done.
Often while the world was sleeping
And the moon was shining bright
And l happened to be wakeful
In the middle of the night.
Here this weary soul would listen
To the hooking bird and then,
He would watt me off to slumber
And l never knew Just when
