RELEASE OF DANA
 FROM COUNTY JAIL
His Mother Gives Reality to the Flood of Checks He Distributed.

Charles Dana. the young man who was arrested nearly a month ago for flooding the town with worthless checks was released from the county jail last night and sent to the home of his mother in California. Dana appears to have been a monomaniac on the sub ject of drawing against an imaginary bank account. He had been doing that for months but he never before got in so deep that he was unable to effect a settlement until the last time.
 He communicated with his mother in California and she began making ar engagements for his release by sending enough money here to make all the checks good. As soon as it was known that these checks were to be given a value. more of them turned up. until the aggregate was over S350. Justice Johnstone before the cases had been brought. sought to make the burden on the mother of Dana as light as pos sble. and finally a check from her for S3S165. the least amount which would release her son from jail. was re- ceived yesterday Ten dollars of the money was given to Dana for his ex- penses. and $10 was sent back to his mother.
 The holders of the checks were c. K. Boston. $6O: Simon Ackel. $40; R. Hayes s20; James Collins $20; Charles Cars. s25: Pollard &Co.. s30: Joe Filisetti. S35; D. osborn. s27.5O; Harry Criswell. $l0; Mrs. Marsh $19.5O; L. Janeway s25; J. Robertson s25; and The Hoffman. 80

ANOTHER STRIKE
 IN SAL0Mt COUNTRY
It Gives Promise of Becoming One of the Mining Incidents Which Make Arizona Famous.

Salome. Ariz. Dec. 12.-(Special cor
 strike has been made in the Salome district which promises some day to
 rival in it's production the great copper properties which are making Arizona
 famous. The latest word from the
 property is more favorable than any so far It lies seven miles northwest of
 the town of Salome, and at its nearest point, five miles distant from the rail- road. at the end of the Harcouvar range, and just in the foot hills where the general trend of the country changes character and the Granite Wash mountains come into the forma tion at right angles. The claims or group of claims have been we'll known in the talk of the old timers Of Harris burg. when that was the distributing point for the mail in this end of Yuma county. and were owned until recently by the Griffin brothers. who, in spite of the distance they were located from supplies and transportation, have steadily worked their claims, and de- veloped as much as their limited means would allow. It has recently been talk en over by a group of bankers from Michigan. and the same crowd which year ago bought the old Harqua Hala mine. and having their own superin- tendent on the ground. and one mine practically in a producing position, looked about for another investment. The company is known as the Iron wood and Arizona Development Co.," with the small capitalization of s15O.- 900. and has already begun the work of sinking the shaft, and discovering the extent of their ore body. Indications point to a future large mine.

THAT FALSE ALARM.
It Came When Least Expected and
 There Was Great Excitement

fIhe false alarm to which the mem- N ITS of both companies of the Tempe EYre department have been looking for ward sometime this week, came unex- pectedly about half past seven night before last. Both companies made a prompt response but were slow in To- eating the position of the fire. The membefs of the two companies had done a little figuring on the quiet as 10 the location of the hydrants about town which was the very thing Chief Finch desired. They are now probably
 more familiar with the positions of the hydrants and the districts in the city limits than they have ever been before.
 It was understood that the fire would
 be in some locality an equal distance from the two hose houses. With that

SHOT STARTLEs NEIGHBoRs
Instead Of Murder, as Feared, Affair
Proves Accident With No
One Hurt

When William Barber purchased a
shotgun yesterday morning he little
realized a few hours later the entire
neighborhood in West First street
would be in turmoil because of the
accidental discharge of the weapon.
Shortly before O'Clock the report
of gun was heard and smoke was
seen floating out of a window at 329
West First street.
A woman ran across the street to
the police station, screaming that
somebody was murdered.
Several detectives, police officers and
newspaper reporters rushed to the
scene and found young man, very
much excited, still holding a smoking
gun in his hand.
We'll, young man, what were you
trying to do?" inquired one of the
officers, sternly.
We'll was just looking at my gun
and it exploded" replied Barber,
sheepishly.
The shot tore hole in the wall of
the room, narrowly missing several
children playing in the street, and
struck bank on the west side of the
building.
Barber was given a lecture about
the careless use of firearms, but no
action was taken against him.
