 and placed under one corner of the house. The explosion completely
 wrecked the house, and fragments of ! Lambs body were found scattered

 about mining property. and it is pre-

 1 The rain of the past few days has
 again disturbed the valley in d busi
 ness way, causing floods which have already caused considerable damage and promises to do still more. In many places grain has been seriously damaged, particular harm having been done alfalfa. The only class of citizens who are not bowling for q cessation of the downpour are the Cattlcmen. and they are supremelv happy, with an abundant supply of water on hand and in prospect and
 much cheap fodder in sight. The railroads, perhaps, will be the heav- fest individual losers. Over two
 thirds of the trestle work on the F.
 & F.. bridge at Tempe was washed out, and the river gives promises of
 making q high water record at that
 point. Citizen.
 Last week an article rather out of
 the usual line was attached by Con- stable Jack Dufton, the property be- ing a gold bar weighing lifty-one ounces. which means d valuation of SSi6. The bar belongs to man named F. Hcidig. who iS q resident of Dos Cabezas, and it was brought here by T. B. Chapman, who also comes from that place. Chapman was just about to deposit the bar in the Arizona National bank when the officer appeared on the scene with the necessary papers and relieved Chapman of the bother of making the deposit. The bill for which the attachment was issued is something over SlO0. and represents an ordi- i dinarv debt. as far as can be ascer- ! taincd. The constable left the pre- | CiouS bar in the care of the bank. ! taking d receipt for the same. Citi- zen.
 w. l.. Taylor, who owns q cattle | ranch in the valley north of Douglas, | was arrested for cattle stealing and 1 his case set for trial. He has since . been rcarrcStcd on another warrant 1 and his bond was fixed at S100. There is q determination on the part of the officers to make a vigorous proseCu- tion of the charges against Taylor. Both cases have been continued for careful hearing. II. C. Buemicr has been employed to defend Taylor and he declares that his client will be able to make satisfactory explanation of the charges against him at the proper time. Taylor owns about three hundred head of cattle on the range and it is charged that num- Der of cattle in his neighborhOod have been found with brands showing evidence of having been tempered with. Taylor's son has also been arrested on the same charge. American.
 The residents of Red Rock are ex- pcctiug the presence of the santa re dlli bsitl lISIC III lLt HNdti [, foI they argue that the appearance of group of officials who were out at Silver Bell last week means that will be doing pretty soon. There were four private cars at tachcd to the freight train which went into the mining camp, two of them being those belonging to B. r. Cheney. the Boston millionaire. who was here for q few hours some time ago. en route to the coast with his wife and MeSsrs. x. O. and Frank Murphy. of Phoenix. They were met at Red Rock by two other cars from this city, belonging to Messrs. No Govern and Gage. and after the trip to the mines had been made, the l. whole bunch came in here, the visit | OrS stopping over here several hours. The utmost secrecy was maintained as to the object of the trip, but the guess of the citizens around the town of Red Rock is that the Santa Fe people want to get into the min- ing camp, and that they will build down from Florence to connect with the Silver Bell branch. and possibly continue south from the camp to the Qui uiiotoas.-Citizen.
