MistriaI in ThaW Case.

The Thaw murder trial, which has occupied the board in New York for the past two months, came to an end yesterday afternoon at 4:25 by the jury being brought into court and report ing that it was unable to agree upon verdict and being discharged by Judge Fitzgerald. It is understood that the jury stood seven for conviction of mur- der in the first degree and five for acquittal. This case was lifted out of the commonplace murders of New York City by the metropolitan news papers and made one of the most cele- brated cases of the age. Thaw, de- generate scion of a rich Pittsburg fam fly, murders Stanford White, one of the greatest architects of the city, at Madison Square roof garden, alleg- ing that White had debauched Mrs. Thaw prior to her marriage to him, and that White was a debaucher of innocent maidens and should be taken out of the world. The characters of all the participants in the drama were not above reproach, Thaw being de. generate, White a moral leper, and Evelyn Thaw in the market for what her virtue or lack of might bring. This case in the English court would have lasted less than one day and Thaw would have either been sentenc- ed to hang or given penal sentence for life.

John Powers. one of the oldest in- habitants of the Eldorado Canyon country, was assaulted and badly beaten up by footpad in Los Angeles, last week. Since that time he has se- cluded himself in small frame house that he owns and refuses to let doc- tor care for him. Powers is supposed to be possessed of great wealth, but those who know him best do not be- lieve his wealth to exceed twenty or thirty thousand dollars. He owned mining property in Eldorado Canyon the past thirty years and was one of the pioneers of the camp. He worked on the rich surface ores and made reg ular shipments to the mills and smell ters of Kingman and Colorado. At one time he operated a small arastra and took out considerable bullion. When the MINER editor was conduct ing the Wallapai Tribune newspaper in Kingman, in the eighties, Powers brought bar of bullion to town and left it in barley sack under the edi- tors desk. This bar Powers claimed to be worth 20,000$, but it really had only about 3,O00$ value in it. It was by telling large tales of his rich mines and the money he was making from them that Powers became the reputed possessor of more than 1OO,O0OS. He is nearly the age of three score and ten and the secluded life he has led has caused him to be one of the odd char acters that the desert produces.

Good miners, or in fact any kind of miners, are scarce in this county. Not ices are placarded around town for twenty men for Cerbat and thirty men for Cedar, but with poor results. The men are not to be had in numbers, but the strikes in the mines of other To- calities may bring more men into the county, relieving the demand for the present.

Yavapai county is making an effort to obtain jurisdiction over Nelson, in the eastern part of this county. Ac- cording to the railroad assessment the county line is more than ten miles east of Nelson. The Santa Fe railroad pays on los and a fraction miles of main line in this county, while the dis tan ce from Topock to Nelson is only 98 and fraction miles. This would take the Mohave county line close to Yampai, where it by right belongs. Yavapai county encroached upon Mo- have county twenty years ago and col lected taxes upon cattle and improve ments in the Fort Rock country until line was established as far north as the line of the Santa Fe railroad. This line is said to be about one mile east of Nelson, but the Yavapai off, cers are ignoring the existence of this line and are making an attempt to col lect taxes on the lime company inn prOvements.

 Having lived according to the light he had-and who shall judge that light but the just God before whom we all must pass-we lower all that remains of our friend and neighbor to his final resting place, to calmly await the reward of a just God. And as we cover it with the sods of earth, may we also cover with the mantle of charity his earthly shortcomings, whate' CT they may have been, and keep bright in the lime light of memory his many good deeds, and may we always emulate his virtues that we may be better fitted to meet our loved ones who are on the other side.
 Each death is a link that binds us to the beyond, so let us live and do that when our time comes we will be found a good link in the endless chain of the plan of Nature.
