DELINQUENT TAX SALE
It Has Been Decided That the Late Proceedings
 in Marieopa County Are Void

County Treasurer Walker is engaged in sending out notices to those who purchased property at the recent de- linquent tax sale that the sales are void, that the certificates issued should be returned to the office of the treas urer, whereupGn the money paid will be refunded, Those whO neglect to avail themselves of the notice will lose the money they have paid, according to Sec. 3936 of the Revised Statutes.
 All this comes about by the amend ment made to the law relating to de- linquent taxes by the late legislature. It was generally aporehenOed that the only change in the law was the one al- fecting the property taken in by the county after the sale. It provides that the county need not take in the prop erty year after year to no purpose 1; but that after a certain time 1t may ac. quire deed to the property so taken, deed that will be worth the paper on which it is written.
 It was generally understood that the sale might be held as usual and that the purchasers of the property could hold it for redemption, one of the con ditions of which was the payment of 30 per cent by the owner.
 The amendment was made to meeta condition which has for a long time prevailed in Graham county, where holders of property had allowed the county to take it in year after year. The owners had no wish to sell the property and were therefore not troub- led by small cloud upon it.
 District Attorney Baker has held that the amendment affects all prop erty alike, whether bought by Specu- ators or taken by the county after the sale that the owners of the property have until the first of the next year to redeem it upon the payment of the legal penalty. y.-Republican.

ASBESTOS IN CHA COUNTY
Samples Examined In Prescott Show the Min
 ineral to Be Almost Commercially Fine.


 What may prove to be one Of the biggest things in the way of a mineral find ever located in Arizona has just been appropriated by two Prescott men, who returned from beyond Globe yesterday afternoon. The men are NJ. l.. ShackeIford and M c. Jolly.
 Some time ago, in conversation with several men, the subject discussed was asbestos. Mir. Shackelford informed them that he knew where there was enough of the article to supply the world. He said that he had punched cattle all over the Tonto basin cOun- try and had ridden oyer the deposit many times. The result was that Mir. Shackelford and Mir Jolly started for the Tonto country on the 10th of last March, with burroS. They had six burros, a camping outfit and plenty to eat
 Yesterday afternoon they arrived in town again, feeling like millionaires. Sr. Shackelford brought a sack of the samples to the Herald office and gave full particulars. The deposit of aSbes- tos is about three miles long and from to 40 feet wide. Asbestos crops out the full length and width of that area, The samples shown us were claimed to oe general average of the deposit. Some of the pieces were pure asbestos The tiberS, when placed in water, soft, ened like cotton cloth. Thirty. six claims were located in all.
 The location of the find was on the head of Pinto creek, thirty-tiye miles from Globe. It is a country that car easily be reached Globe being SC close, makes the shipping of the min eral quite cheap.
 Asbestos is produced principally ir Italy and Canada. The United States gets it's supply from the latter place After being crushed aud the rocl washed out, asbestos is worth ahou s240 per ton. The value ranges accord iug to the length of the llberS. Mr ShackelfOrd says that the mineral cal be obtained at the new ind in any length from an inch to eight inches.
 Work will be done shortly on tn, property and it's value further pros pected AS it appears now, the for tunes of those interested are made. - | Prescott Herald.

Chicago, Aug 25.-Waiters and cooks employed in several downtown lunch rooms Were called out on strike early Monday morning The number of men responding to the order was small, owing to the small forces on duty at the time This is the first move of the walters and cooks union in the re- newed fight against the Chicago Res taurant Keepers association which two months ago, tied up the establish ments controlled by them and which resulted in the granting of an increase in wages of ten per cent. to their em- piOyes.
 Within an hour after 30 committees led by officials of the Hotel and Restau- rant employees alliance left their head quarters with instructions to call out every restaurant employe except those in the few establishments which grant ed the strikers demands last June. Ten restaurants and lunch rooms were more or less crippled.

Berlin, Aug. 25.-A clique of usurerS and marriage brokers has been da- manding s50.000 from Count Franz Jo seph Maria Won Larisch- -Monnich, since his marriage with Miss Marie Satter- lee, of Titusvile, Pa, at Buffalo, N. Y, in July, 1901, which sum the count has refused to pay The public prose cutor has now brought proceedings against the usurers for attempted swindling. Some time before Count Lariseh-Monnieh visited America the accused persons assert they supplied him with funds to go 10 Nuremberg and court the daughter of Faber, the pencil manufacturer, and that the count signed a note for S50,000, pay able on condition that he married Miss Faber. He went to Nuremberg, it Is further asserted. properly supplied with cash, and paid his addresses to Miss Faber, but was not accepted Later, the count went to America, pre- Sumably at his own expense. and event ually married Miss Satterlee The group that asserts that it financed the Faber affair demanded S50,000, not on the conditional note, but on another. which, it is insisted, Count Larsch- Monnich signed, and which he refused to pay. The public prosecutor was in formed of the case by someone whose name does not appear, and the matter was investigated with the result that the public prosecutor has instituted proceedings against a merchant, re- ferred to as R" in the statements given to the press, and against re tired cavalry captain. The trial has been set for the autumn term of the criminal court. Count Lariisch-Mon- nich belongs to the Austrian nobility.

Flaht With Negro kidnapers.

A dispatch from Fort Smith says the Kidnapping of a young white girl and the killing of one of party who tried to rescue her are crimes charg- ed to gang of negroes, who took refuge on an island in the middle of the Arkansas river twelve miles west of the above city. Two farmers who were on a hunt landed on the is land and accidentally ran into camp where there were two negroes and a girl about twelve years of age The white men made some inquiries about the girl and the negroes stated that she was the daughter of whlte man who was travelling with them, and that he had gone to Fort Smith for some groceries. The negroes would not let the girl take part in the conversation and this increased the suspicious of the white men. A watch was kept on the negroes for two days, and, no white man appear ing, party of farmers decided to make a further investigation As they neared the island the party was hlou uPoh py tHe HeSIOcSt anu d sharp fight followed Tn which one of the white men. by the name of Ro- land, was killed.
