 A jury in the court of Justice Nc Donald yesterday afternoon promptly acquitted Eddy Overacker, the ten year-old who was charged by Superin- tendent Harland of the Bis6ee-Arizona with stealing fuse and caps from the store house of the property about eight miles out Tombstone Canyon.
 Present in the court with the boy
 was his father, George Overaker, a well known resident of Lowell, who is in the employ of the Bisbee Transfer company, and has for years borne a good reputation in the camp. Attor- ney Baker defended the boy, while At torney Cunningham appeared for the prosecution, the aim of which was to secure the incarceration of the boy in the Industrial School at Benson.
 In the examination it was brought cut that the boy had worked at the Bisbee-Arizona property prior to the time of the alleged theft, and had per formed the tasks set him in satisfacto- " manner. The accusation of theft Of the caps and fuse. and the belief expressed by the mine people that the boy had been guilty of numerous oth. CT thefts that had occurred about the property, was due to the fact that the boy was caught riding away with the materials first mentioned in his possession. In court he explained that he had found the caps and fuse iE the road near the store house and had picked them up as he was riding by on a burro. When confronted few minutes later by the mine people he alleged that they frightened him So that he was unable to make any ex- planation.
 Testimony introduced brought out the fact that it has been the custom to keep dynamite, fuse and caps all in one room at the Bisbee-Arizona store house. It was usual it was said. to have as high as 25O pounds of dyna- mite. six boxes of caps and several iffffts1fti cd I ffeet-Of-fase thus urlawfully thrown together. Following trial of the boy it was said that charges would probably be filed against Superintend- ent Harland for not keeping his dyna mite and caps in separate places. Fail ure to do this in the territory is pun ishable by heavy fine.

Chairman Bowen. of the Board of SupeIv visOrs, yesterday signed voUch- CTS in this city for ever three thoG- sand dollars due to county officlals and their office help for work per. formed ID the month Of July. The vouchers were sent back to Clerk Hswe, of the board, by express last evening, and will be cashed today at Tombstone by those in whose favor they are drawn.
 The proceedings of yesterday was the first of the kind that has been made in the county, and came about through rule adopted by the board at its last meeting. Under this rule, which IS based on an act of the last legislature, giving to boards of super Visors privilege to authorize payment of the sa.aried office employees of the county either by the month or quar- teriy, the Cochise county supervisors provided that salaries shall be paid monthly. Heretofore payment has been made quarterly, the board audit ing the accounts in regular session, and then authorizing payment As it now is the vouchers are sent to the chairman of the board in this city to be examined and signed. The change, would help the several county offices to keep a less varying force of help, and would also be a great convenience to many of the county office employees at small salaries who have in the past been much inconvenieaced by the quarterly pay plan. In concluding his remarks Chairman Bowen drew at tention to the abstract of the assess ment rou recently forwarded to the territorial board of equalization.
 Here is a copy of the abstract 1 which the Review printed the other morning" he said, with note ap-1 pended from Clerk Howe which says: | The only thing that shows a decrease on cur assessment roll this year is | the decrease of $50,44S.O9 made by the
 
 put on railroad property in the coun ty. It seems to ne to be absurd that | such a decrease should be made. Right here is Bisbee spurs have been built l ir the lest year which cost the E. P. | 6 s.

A bulletin from New York last Satur-

To the miner by whom that metal is

the dust of antiquity. says the Salt

management says there are but two or

NEVADA PRESS
,.-~.;,y librarian Racket.

Tn. University Librarian Racket.
There is one phase about the matter
OF selecting q Librarian for the Nevada
University that wall not commend 1t
self to the people of the State. Inc
salary offered Miss Doten and the other
Nevada girls-not named by the Com
mit,ee in its voluminous report-was
5000. Before they could obtain the
position even at this pittance they were
to take courses of training abroad and
guarantee that they would remain with
the University no matter what more
favorable opportunities came their a
It was to be a form Of contract labor.
Even marriage, doubtless. was to be
barred from the Nevada young woman
who ACCEPTED sne position on the terms
laid down BY the Library Committee.
After serving the University for 800 q
year for several years the lure was held
out that possibly there would be an in
crease in salary. IL was a chance at
that. The funds of the University were
low, quoth the Committee and 5000 was
a good salary. permitting Of a growing
bank account if one were properly Geo.
nomical. The people of Nevada know
how far $500 a year goes in this State.
So much for the salary that was Of
fered to the girls of Nevada. upon con-
dition that they go Esst and train for
the position and agree to contract their
services for several years. 1t was
hardly q theme for surprise that the
bonanza was refused. Then came the
casting about for some n who would
take the position and yet be acceptable
in the sight of the Committee. By good
fortune a young woman OF Fresno.
Cal, was known to somebody In the
University. She did not have exactly
the training that the Committee in
sisted upon in the case Of the Nevada
girls. But she had some library train
ing and that was an asset. The next
hurdle was the question of salary.
Equipped as she was the California
young woman would not come to the
classic shades of Nevada's University
unless that salary were iucreased-not
in three or four years. but right now.
to-day. The Committee considered
that situation carefully. The depleted
funds of the University were counted.
A herculean effort was made, and it
was successful. The salary was raised
to $500 a year, even though the candi-
date under consideration did not have
the training that the Committee had
been keeping in mind when it was on
its quest for a Librarian. The position
was filed.
Now, as we stated before, the people
of Nevada are willing to accept the
Committees statements in regard to
the necessary qualifications of a Libra
rian. But whether or not they
will accept as pleasantly the incident of
the salary and the contract part of the
offer that was held out to the young
women of Nevada is q different Iues-
tion.-Reno Gazette.
