A DastardIy Outrage.

Last Monday night Mineral Park was startled by an explosion that shook the town and when the dust cleared away it was found that some midnight assassin had blown up the store of Isaac Conkey. The force of the ex- plosion carried away the porch on the rear of the building and blew a hole through the adobe wall. Jacob Gable, who was sleeping close to the wall where the explosion spent it's force. was thrown partly across the room and his bed was filled with broken adobe and other debris. He was dazed by the shock and it was some time before he fully realized what had happened. The explosion blew out all the win dows and broke down the doors of the stol and did great deal of damage. An investigation of the affair resulted in the arrest of James w. Haas, whc was charged with the crime and taken to Chloride. The Justice of the Peace at that place transferred the case to Kingman for examination, being the son of the complaining witness. The examination was held yesterday, the firm of McClelland & Ginder appear ing for the defendant and Judge Blakely for the territory. The exami- nation resulted in the holding of the defendant to the grand jury, with bail placed at one thousand dollars.

always been for a simple, pleasant
