Vermont and Canada.

Col. George Harvey, the brilliant YER
monter who is the editor Of Harper's
Weekly, combines history with humor in
the following comment on the report
that part of Vermont was in the Kings
domains:
There came from the north an ominous
sound of whetting scythes when it was
announced the other day that as a re-
suit of the new survey fixing the border
line, Vermont might have TO give to
Canada a slice OF her territory and some
of her few remaining people. Stern
experience conveyed warning to that
free and independent republic, at present
allied with the United States of America.
1t was not the first time her ally had
indicated willingness to deprive her of
territory and population. AS early as
1871 the churlish Congress proposed a
considerable curtailment Of her bounda-
ries as a condition OF her admission to
the Union. The offer was rejected with
scorn, the muskets were oiled, the
scythes were ground, the powder. horn
was placed by the anvil. Vermont and
Ethan Allen were ready. After ten
years. during which time the Congress
was stunned more than once by rumors
OF an alliance between the Green
Mountain republic and Great Britain,
the bars were let down, and Vermont
walked proudly into the Union upon her
own terms, with colors flying in the very
faces OF the detested Workers.

YAOUIS IN THE
 WARPATH

HERMOSILLO, Mexico, April H. The military authorities here have re- ceived confirmation of the report that Malpuch, the old chief of the Yaqui Indians, who was supposed to beloug to the peace faction of that tribe, has gone on the warpath and is on a deva5 tatlng expedition in the country east Of La Colorado. It is stated that he is fast gathering around him a large force of Yaquis, who heretofore have been operating as small bands. He and his men have committed many murders of peaceable settlers, and are burning all ranch buildings and other property susceptible to flames. The Yaquis have recently received large supply of rifles and cartridges. An investigation is being made of the source of these arms and ammunition. They are thought to have come from San Francisco.

Gold Bearing Quartz On the McCabe
 Road
Lynx Greek Correspondent Tells of The Work Being Done on Various Claims in That District-0re As- says Prove to Be Valuable.

LOWER LYNX CREEK, April 9,
 Editor Journal Miner.-On the Nc Cabe road, about ten miles easterly from Prescott, lies a zone Of mineral bearing conglomerate which seems to have been overlooked by prospectors generally. Until quite recently there were but two or three men who held claims here and kept up their annual assessment. Now the belt is located as far as it lies exposed, which is about two miles in length, northerly and southerly by about three quarters of a mile in width. The ore seems to be a cunglomerate of quartz and porphy- ry and might perhaps be termed DOT phyritlc quartz, slashed through in every direction by seams and cubes of hematite iron. A few assays have been made by some of the parties holding claims ranging in value from few dollars up to near S2OO per ton. Some specimens have been taken out that would run an assay up into the thou sands. No matter where hole is sunk within the boundaries of the zone, values in gold will be encountered if not at the grass roots, very soon there after In some places great dykes of this conglomerate rises to height of ten to twenty feet above the surface. From a distance one would take them for granite dykes but upon eyamina- tion most of them are found to be of this iron bearing conglomerate. There is some granite here too, but the gold bearing matrix predominates.
 W. J. Murphy, one of the old tim CTS, owns three claims, with holes in different places on them from ten to seventy feet in depth. Gold can be horned from any dump on his proper ty. A 70-foot shaft on the Independ ence is in ore all the way down and

TRAIN NEARLY PLUNGES
 INTO RAGING TORRENT
Collapsing Bridge Almost Causes Disaster to Santa F'e Fly
 CT Near Kingman.

KINGMAN, April Il, (Special).- Santa Fe passenger No. and it's load of human freight, but for miraculous escape, would now be at the bottom of creek a few miles west of here.
 Early this morning the train was stopped at the very edge of a bridge that was tottering on its supports, and which under the weight of the train would have given away, had not the engineer been warned and brought his train to stop just as it was about to enter the bridge.
 Heavy rains here yesterday and last night had washed away part of the trestle. The greatest damage was done by rise in the flood waters just after No. ', westbound for San Fran cisco, had crossed over with safety.
 The passing over of that train left the bridge in 8 tottering condition, and when No. came speeding along half an hour later, it was on the verge of collapse.
 That No. did not rush headlong into danger is due to the caution of the conductor who signalled for brakes as soon as his train came within a

COrdeS Owners Refuse To Sign a Tax
 Bond
Believe It Would Be Practical Ad- mission That They Own Taxes on Their WoOI-Decide Today What They Had Best Do.

Upon the arrival in Prescott today of County Assessor D. J. Sullivan, the sheep men who have clashed with De- putty P J. Farley over the payment of taxes on wool, will take the matter up with him with view to some sort of an adjustment.
 Though bonds were prepared by As- sistsnt District Attorney Sam l.. Pat tee for the release of large amo unt of wool at Cordes, the sheep men re- fused to sign them for very good req son. They found that signing the bend would ,be practical admission that they owe the taxes.
 The official tax bond as prepared by the county says: "The condition of this obligation is such that, whereas, the above bounden person is the owner of the following property, subject to taxation for the fiscal year 1905 of Ya- vapai county"
 Those requested to sign this bond were H. J. Gray, H. iaeger, J. W. Rice and VIII. Campbell. As soon as they saw that to affix their signatures would mean an admission that they owe the taxes, 1t was decided to re- fuse, and secure the county by some other means that would not imperil their rights.
 "We are not fighting against the payment of the taxes" " says MT. Gray, "and we are willing to give a satis- factory bond, but we want to see this matter settled. Our desire is to find out whether or not we should pay tax es on our wool when we are paying on our sheep"
 Last night the sheep men in Pres colt had about decided to pay the taxes under protest, and then replevin the moneyiwhen it gets into the coun- tvs hands. As result the matter would be taken into court and an i'm portant issue decided.
 Telegrams were sent yesterday to B. S. Gosney, president of the Arizona Wool Growers association, at Flagstaff, asking him what is best to do in the matter. They also want the backing of the association in case the courts are called upon to settle the question.
 Should they refuse to pay the taxes or give a bond, it is pointed out that the county will have to order the wool sold. The sheep men could get tenn porary injunction restraining them, give bond for the removal of the wool from Cordes, and then fight the matter out in the courts.
 The sheep men involved in this par ticular case seem to think more about establishing precedent than the pay ment of tine taxes, which were yester- day reduced from S7S8. 40 to S526. GO. Tbis was done by reducing the assess ed valuation per pound from fifteen to ten cents.

short distance of the bridge. The en- gineer threw in the air and brought the train to standstill just before it left the solid earth to pass upon the trestle and into the stream below.
 With great fortitude the conductor cIawled out upon the swayiBg bridge, and found that even under his weight parts of it were ready to give way. He ordered his train back to this place, where it remained until this evening.
 No. 2, which crossed in safety, was unfortunate enough to run into a washout at Franconia, where it re- mained from early this morning until 5 o'clock this evening. The passen- gers for the most part were without food.
 The limited trains, east and vest bound, and all the local trains were put out of service until late this after noon. It was o'clock this afternoon when the Limited, bound for Los An geles, pulled out of Kingman, to which station No. had been pulled back. The Limited was followed by No. 1, which so narrowly missed ter rible end.

WINSLOW, April 8, (Special).-The Wigwam saloon here was robbed of $500 about o'clock this morning. At $ o'clock this evening one of the rob bers was filed and the other seriously injured near Canyon Diablo.
 With only the watchman present, the employees being at lunch, two masked men entIeed the Wigwam, ordered the man to throw up his hands and when he had done so, took what money could be found on the gambling tables and made their escape.
 Manager Button, of the Wigwam, es- timated after the robbery that he had lost about $500. Sheriff c. 1. Houck, of Holbrook, was notified and with Deputy Pemburton came here to take up the trail. They learned that the robbers had gone in the direction of Canyon Diablo.
 Houck has been correctly informed and came upon the two men at the Santa Fe railroad station. Seeing that they were pursued the robbers at once opened fire, and a fusillade of shots followed.
 Sheriff Houck shot but once and instantly killed one of the men, James Shaw, through the heart, and Deputy Pemburton wounded the other, Will liam Smythe.
 When Shaw and Smythe were searched after the shooting s2S0 of the stolen money in silver dollars were found in their clothes. These will be turned over to the Wigwam proprietor.

Denver Firm to Start On $22,00O
 Contract
P. 0'Brien Here to Take Charge of Construction of Reservoir and Pipe Lines at WhippIe - Bids Wanted For Eighteen Buildings

P. O'Brien of the firm of O'Brien & Rhoades, Denver contractors, has ar rived in Prescott to begin the con- struction of a S22, GOO reservoir and water system for Fort Whipple.
 MT. O'Brien informs the Journal Miner that as soon as the weather clears be will begin to unload materi- al that has already arrived here, and as soon as it can be moved to the fort will begin work.
 The largest piece of work this firm has in hand is the building of a reser- voir that will hold about 25O, GOO gal Ions of water, and which will be the source of supply for the fort and its men.
 The reservoir will be l35 feet each way with depth of thirty five feet, and will be built of concrete. It is to stand on the site of the old reservoir that for several years has held the water for the supply of the fort.
 O'Brien will have about twenty men at work, and if this mateHial ar rives here fast enough will increase the force in order to hasten the com pletion of the contract. He estimates that under favorable conditions it will take about sixty days to finish the work.
 In addition to the reservoir he will lay two miles of water mains to build ings already erected and others that are to be built by the government at

MASKED ROBBERS LOOT
 A WINSLOW SALOON
Highwaymen Are Brought to Bay By Officers, Who Kill One
 And Wound the Other.

The night watchman, who was in the Wigwam when the robbery occurred, says that the two men entered through a side door, and that one of them GOV cred him with six shooter, forcing him to throw up his hands.
 The other fellow swept the money from the roulette table into sack, and they backed out of the door and into the darkness. The watchman gave an alarm immediately, but the men had made their escape.
 Winslow was searched, but no trace of the men could be found. As soon as Sheriff Houck arrived he was told that the men had been seen going in the direction of Canyon Diablo, and on good horses he lett with his depu- ty.
 The robbers, when discovered, did not wait for a command to surrender, but opened fire at once. The shooting took place at close range. Steriff Houck escaped without scratch but his trouser leg was punctured by a bullet. One bullet passed through Pemburton's left coat sleeve, grazing the arm.
 Smith told the officers that no one but Shaw was implicated with him in the robbery.
 The coroner at Flagstaff was at once notified, and left for Canyon Diablo, where he is tonight holding an inquest over the remains of Shaw. There is no doubt that the verdict of the jury will be that Shaw came to his death while resisting an officer.
