DEATH OF H. K. MCDONALD

This morning about $40 o'clock.
when Mrs. \. j. Head went to the
room occupied by H. X. Mcdonald. at
her house, for the purpose of put
ting it in order. she was Mortified to
find him lying on his bed dead She
at once telephoned Chief of Police
Prince who went at once to the house
and summoned Justice of the Peace
Talbot. who called a coroner's jury
and Health Officer Day and an inquest
was held over the remains The evi-
dence given at the inquest was to the
effect that Mr. Mcdonald had arrived
in Prescott on the II train yesterday
morning from the south where he had
been for several days past. He had
been about town from that time on
until about + o'clock, when he was
last seen on the street. At Z o'clock
Arthur Webster, little boy who helps
Mrs. Head about the house, went to
his room and saw him lying on the
bed with his clothes on, apparently
asleep. When found this morning he
was in exactly the same position as
when seen by the boy. which showed
that he had gone to his room, laid
down on the bed and had died, prob
ably while alseep. He was lying in a
perfectly natural manner and had
passed away without even a move
ment.
He had been drinking very heavy
for some time and the jury concluded
that death had been caused by nat
ural causes brought on 10y his excess
i've drinking.
Mr.. Mcdonald was about 3S or 40
years of age and had been a resident of
this section for a number of years.
most of which time had been spent
at mining, until the, past two years,
when he sold several mining proper
ties realizing several thousand dollars
for them. This seemed to be a curse
to him, as he has been drinking very
hard most of the time since that time,
and has squandered his money in dis
sipatiOn until he was nearly at the
end of his financial string. Being of
a generous nature he was often i'm
posed upon and virtually gave away
thousands of dollars.
He was divorced from his wife some
years ago. She now lives at Mesa.
and has their only child, bright lit
tie girl about twelve years old. He
carried a policy in the A. O.U. W. for
$1,000 in his daughters favor. He was
also a prominent member of the order
of Eagles, which order took charge
of his body this morning and will
conduct the funeral services.
Later-The funeral will be held
Sunday morning at 10 O'Clock. As
the deceased was a member of the Ma
sonic order and also the knights of
Pythias, it has not been fully decided
who will conduct the funeral services.
but very likely the Masons will have
charge

MURDER IN
FIRST DEGREE
With Death Penalty
Affixed.
Such Was the Jury'S Verdict in
Goddard Murder CaSe-Will
Be Sentenced Friday.

I'VE, the jury find the prisoners
guilty as charged in the Indictment,
and aftix the death penalty" Such
vas the verdict of the jury in the
Goddard murder trial, after deliber-
alton of only about half an hour after
the case had been given to them.
While the case was one of the most
important that has been tried in the
court at this place for some time. the
case had been so well prepared and
the evidence was presented in such
a manner that it was finished
much quicker than it was thought it
would be.
There were only seven or eight wit
nesses examined by the prosecution
but their testimony was absolute and
not to be questioned or doubted.
Mrs. Goddard, wife of one of the muir
dered men. who was at the table with
her husband when he was killed, pos
itiveIy identified the prisoners as the
men who committed the terrible
crime. The scene was a most pathetic
one when she pointed out the ruthless
slayers of her husband.
Frank Goddard and Milton Turn
bull. who were also at the table iden-
titled the prisoners as the murders.
Francisco Roderquez. the sheep
herder who was with them the most of
the afternoon on the fateful day, and
who saw them so to the house a few
minutes before the shots were fired,
said positively that the prisoners were
the men he was with. Others saw
them the next day going south from
the scene of the murder, all of which
formed a chain of evidence which it
was impossible for the defense to
break And while the case was so
strong against the prisoners. and
Messrs. Anderson and Hicks only had
a few days in which to prepare a
defense, they made a hard fight
The time set for passing sentence
was fixed by Judge Sloan on next Fri
day morning.

RICH STRIKE IN CORONA MINE

w. f. Grove, superintendent OF the
Corona Consolidated Gold and Copper
company's properties. being operated
in the Turkey Creek district, is in
town and reports that a very rich
strike was made in the l7O foot tunnel
Friday afternoon. The ore looked so
good to Mr. Grove that he panned out
"a little Of it aud the string of free
gold that showed up in the pan almost
took his breath, and fearing that he
had gotten hold of only small
piece of extra rich ore ne took another
grab sample and again the result was
the same as before-a long string of
gold in the pan. The news was so
good that he could not rest until he
came to Prescott and brought the
good news to the officers and stock
holders. No assay of the new strike
has been made yet. but it is thought
the values will run over 500 to the
Weekly Arizona journal-miner., 1903-06-17

ton. There has been a change in the
character of the ore in the tunnel for
several days, considerable chunks of
copper sulphurates being encountered,
and it is believed that this character
OF ore will soon be broken into in
large quantities. The ore is clear
across the breast of the tunnel and it
is not known how much wider, as
there has been no cross cutting of the
vein, but it is thought to be consid-
cradle wider than the tunnel, which
is fully five or six feet wide. There
has been over 900 feet of development
work done on the property and some
very rich ore has been taken out of
the old workings which were worked
eighteen or twenty years ago. An old
arastra still stands at the foot of the
hill where the ore was worked. Gold
can be PANIED out of these tailings,
which shows that a large percentage of
the values were lost by the crude
methods they had for treating the ore,
and yet in spite of this loss they took
out thousands of dollars. The tunnel,
which is now being run in on the
vein, will tap the vein at a depth of
nearly GOO feet from where it crops
out on top of the mountain, and
should determine the values of the
property pretty we'll The manage
ment is determined to prove the prop
erty and block out large bodies of ore
and know what kind of machinery
they will need for the proper treat
ment of the ore before they spend any
money on building mills, etc. They
are now putting every dollar OF
money that is spent into the ground
to develop the mine. There is an
abundance of water in the creek at the
foot of the hill on either side of the
mountain to run a large mill, and as
soon as they are ready for machinery
they have splendid natural advantages
for the installation of it. Supt. Grove
is very enthusiastic, and not without
reasons for being so over the future
of the property, and says if they don t
make a big mine out of that property
he is badly fooled.
