CORONER's JURY INVESTIGATES
 ACCIDENT
Find That Ringer Came to His Death by Unavoidable Cav ing in of Ground Brother On Way to BiSbee.

The coroner's inquest into the man. ner in which Hiram Klinger came to his death in the Holbrook shaft on Friday was held in the office of Coro- ner Hogan yesterday afternoon, at which time the various witnesses ap- peared and told what they knew con corning this. the most peculiar acci- dent which has ever happened in the district.
 The only one of the witnesses who was present at the time Klinger was covered with the falling dirt was Charles McGinty, his partner. The substance of McGinty's testimony was as follows: Both of them had been sent into the drift to repair it, and had been working there for a consid- erable length of time. Klinger and himself had prepared to put in false set of timbers, so that they could re place the old set. KIinger was driv- ing a wedge under a piece of tagging, when suddenly the timber got away from him and slipped out of place. The ground from above at once began to run in about his feet, and in very short time covered him to the knees; he made an effort to escape, and in do-
 
 was covered completely. Calling help, McGinty and those that arrived on the scene went to work to catch up the ground, so that. they could rescue the fallen man. Foreman Temby ar rived on the scene. and directed the work. After the ground had been caught up, Klinger was gotten out from beneath the pile of dirt in about two minutes, but it was found he had suffocated. " .. .
 Various other witnesses who arrived on the scene shortly after the acci- dent, in answer to McGinty's call for help, testified to other incidents con nected with the accident.
 After hearing the evidence the Jury retired, and in short time returned a verdict to the effect that the de ceased came to his death "by accident, the ground unavoidably caving in. CSigned): John H. Coles, H. Il. Hughes. C. C. Rogers, c. w. Pearce, w. A. Lee, E. H. Howard, R. II. Gooch, E. A. Roberts and Ernest Habgood.

GREAT HOMECOMING
 CREETS YOUNG COUPLE
MT. and Mrs. H, A. Schwartz Met by Many Friends
 Parade in Their Honor

Smarting under the kenwledge that they had been "stung'' when NIT. and Mrs. H. 4. Schwartz were married several weeks ago, and succeeding in getting away from the city without experiencing the misery which had been fixed up for them, crowd of about fifty met the returning couple at the station last evening as they alight- ed from the train, and prepared to make life miserable.
 MT. and Mrs. Schwartz were hustled into an automobile, on the front seat of which sat one of their friends bear ing a banner, on which there was de- picted two hearts pierced by the ar row of Cupid, and on the other side an inscription announcing to the world the return from the honeymoon.
 Late in the evening when the young couple went to their home, a proces- sion of about fifty friends on horse back. dressed in khaki, and armed with tin horns, and followed by a crowd of infantry formed in the plaza
  eral hundred people lined the streets and cheered the cayalcade as 1t start ed towards the home of Mir. and Mrs. Schwartz, under the guidance of Col. E. W. Spiers and Major Corey, to make life pleasant.
 Along the line of march red fire was set of, and the horsemen fired Roman candles. To one not acquaint- ed with the circumstances it must surely have looked like a Fourth of July celebration.
 The parade continued up Main street and Tombstone Canyon to Oak street on Mason Hill, where the widest clat- ter ever heard in the district was set up. Horns were footed. Roman candles set of, and cheer after cheer given in honor of the popular young couple.
 The groom finally appeared at the door, and invited all of his friends in. apoloeizing most profusely for having fooled them by leaving the city by a circuitous route.
