 Elsewhere in this issue the de parture of the Miller horses for Denver is mentioned. A week or so ago our Flagstaff correspondent mentioned that it was hoped they would come there on the Fourth that some of Flagstaff's local horses could get a crack at them. MT. Miller, it is to be regretted, felt that there was nothing at Flagstaff that would make even an interesting race with his horses, hence his de- cision to go to Denver. When Flag staff gets some horses, races can no doubt be arranged.
 Two of Williams celebrated re- sorts, the "Last Chance" and the ''Wild West" saloons, are no more. they having gone up in. smoke about 3:15 yesterday morning. The fire started in the Wild West" opera ted by c. F. Lopez, and quickly spread to the other saloon, con. ducted by Mrs. H. c. Sanders. MT. Lopez says the fire started in back room of his place and undoubtedly y was set, as there was no fire in the house at the time. After he had wakened up he had only time to rouse the other inmates and save his cash register, all else being burned. The contents of the other resort were saved.
 If you want window glass, paint, oil, wall paper, picture mouldings. varnish, brushes, etc., please call on J. c. Simmons, across the street from the postoffice.
 i Al Wakefield came in from Will low Springs this week and returned before we were able to see him. We learn, however, of lion story he told. which is worth repeating, but we had rather give it in Al's Ian guage. It seems that he and his partner. Herb Wood, were out rid ing the range when they chanced on COW that appeared to have something radically wrong with her. Investigating they found that she had recently been attacked by a mountain lion and horribly cut up. The lion had evidently sprung from cover to her back and as usual tried to sever the jugular vein. He started in too far up. though, and tearing the throat open at the base of the tongue, jerked that member from it's roots and decamped, car rying the tongue with him. The boys proceeded to rope the COW and put her out of her misery at once They stated that the struggle must have been fierce, from the looks of the ground, and that the lion was evidently an extra large one or he would not have attacked a COW of her proportions.
