in the war department regarding the fate of Captain Overton. He had left Washington and was on his way then to the Philippines to join his cornand. It happend that for two or three days after the wreck the department heard nothing of his movements and it was for some time feared that he was one of the victims though assurance had been given that none of the passengers of the west-bound train had suffered. It was subsequently learned that he had stopped over at Kansas City and was not on the wrecked train.
 Captain Overton was a brother of Gertrude Overton. the novelist, who also lived for some time at Camp Grant and while there gathered material for some of the best stories of frontier life that have been printed.

A NIGHT OF DISORDER
Two Mexicans Helped by Trying to
 Break Up a Dance.

Constable Redwine and Deputy UetZ earned their fees yesterday morning by the arrest of Miguel Modena, Mex ican bully who has been in all kinds of trouble There was a. dance in pro- gress near the Phoenix flour mills and Modena set out to break it up. He was thrown out of the hall and the door was fastened against him. He re- turned accompanied by his friend and broke the door down. About this time the officers arrived. Deputy Uetz seized Modena by the collar and drag ged him down. He rose with a knife in, his hand and the two officers took turns knocking him down. The other Mexicans came up and took part in the affray but Modena was : so powerful that he engaged the attention of both officers. It took nearly half an hour to get handcuffs on him. In the mean time Deputy Martinez arrived and join ed the melee. He was Lot recognized by the officers in the darkness and he was struck twice in the face with a gun. When Modena had been hand cuffed his partner was secured and both were taken to jail. They fought all the way and continued the struggle until they had been thrown inside.
 When Modena is brought into court this morning his face will be sight for Gods and men.
 There was an epidemic of disor der on Saturday night and yesterday morning The sheriff's office was on the move all night Between 10 o'clock at night and in the morning seven men were thrown in.
