FLAMES DESTROY
 DON LUIS HOME
Residence of Charles M, Waid Burned to the Ground,
 5000 lnsuranee.ss

What was once the home of Chas. NJ. Waid at Don Luis is now nothing but a heap of ashes. the result of a fire which visited that place on Sun. day evening at about o'clock. The inmates of the home, who were Mrs. Waid and four children, barely escaped with their lives, so quickly was the house consumed Mir. Wais was at the home of neighbor when the fire was discovered, and Mrs. Waid, who was not feeling well, was lying down. Upon smelling something burning, Mrs. Waid tried to enter the kitchen, but was confronted with a wall of flames. She quickly got her children out of doors and tried to save some thing of value. The first article she grasped was her handbag which con tained a sum of money, the flames having already. reached the receptacle, and in saving it she had her fingers badly burned
 MT. Waid and the neighbors sue ceeded fn saving little of the house hold effects, including sewing ma chine and some bed clothes. MT. Waid was severely burned about the neck and hands, and at present is under lue care o dpny ySlclan. HIS worst burns are at the back of his neck, where some burning canvas from the ceiling dropped.
 The origin of the fire is sup posed to have been the gasoline stove, as Mrs. Waid noticed that the part of the room where that article was placed was burning worse than any other. It is surmised that there was leak in the stove, which caused some of the in6ammable fluid to ignite The building is insured for $250, and the contents for S350. WIT. Waid carried no insurance upon his household ef- fleets until the time an attempt was made to dtstroy the Conchin home about six weeks ago, which caused him to take action. The insurance policies were kept in an album, which was saved only after being badly scorched on the edges.
 Several of the neighboring houses had narrow escapes from destriction, especially that of H. B. Hendricks. which adjoins, but the heoric work of the neighbors saved them from the 1 flames.

MONTEAEGRINs IAGLOBE
 PLOT AGAINST NICK
Sovereign's Agent Takes Mail of Conspirater and Is Ar
 rested By U. s. Marshal.

GLOBE, Feb. 3.-Mifo Gionoyich, a Montenegrin miner employed at the Old Dominion mine, was arrested late yesterday afternoon by Deputy United States Marshal R. W Sturgis, on a warrant sissued by United States Cammissiofer Charles T. Martin, charging aim with wilfully, unlawful ly, and feloniously taking from the postoffice at Globe, a letter address ed to Bojo Pocek The offense ac- cording to the complaint which is signed by Pocek, was committed on or about November 1, 1907. Gjono- vich was arrested as he was eating his evening meal and he was taken to the county jail. His hearing will be held this morning before the United States commissioner at 10 o'clock. Gjonovich has a wife and child residing in Globe.
 There seems to be a very sensa- tional story connected with the ar rest but only few details could be obtained last evening. It is story inp olving an aIlege plot against the reigning head of Montenegro, Prince Nicholas, and Montenegrins residing in Globe are said to be implicated in the conspiracy. It was stated yes terday that relatives of Pocek mad been arrested and imprisoned in Montenegro because of information transmitted by Montenegrin in Globe, to the ruler of the little prov incs. Pocek left here several months ago for Leads. s. D., and returned to Globe Wednesday night. He claims that the letter which was taken by Gjonovich contained secret informa- tion concerning political affairs in Montenegro and that these secrets had been communicated to officials o7 that country by Gjonovich.
 Whether or not Pocek is implicated in a conspiracy against Montenegro win probably be snown at the caring of Gjonovich this morning.

 Is Begun.

GLOBE, Feb. 3.-The members of the Globe Printers Union are mak- ing diligent search for J. c. Corners, wao. prior to July last, officiated as secretary treasurer of the union and itSis said left the city short in his accounts with the union to the ex- tent of something over $500.
 Corners came to Globe early last spring and for a number of months followed painting as a business. Later he engaged in other pursuits and a few weeks prior to his departure uh- dertook the task cF getting out a city directory. Inexperienced ih the work he was compelled to abandon the project, which was completed by To- cal printers.
 The alleged defaulter left here the latter part of July and was last heard from in San Antonio, Texas, but it is said he left there shortly before the holidays. His shortage with the union was discovered soon after he left the city, but for some unknown reason it was kept under cover and no effort was made to apprehend Corners. A few days ago the union took the mater up and are now de

WITH
 CAPS; LOSES HIS FINGERS
Eleven Year Old Boy Is Maim- ed While Playing With Some Companions Near fiome In Tombstone Canyea.

Another instance in which a child will be maimed for life because of playing with dynamite caps is that Of the son of A. J. Stevens, a miner employed by the Copper Queen com pany. The boys left hand is terri bly disfigured by tho loss of four fin gers, and at present there is danger of blood poisoning setting in, which might make it necessary to amputate the hand.
 ons Sunday afternoon. the Stevens boy, who is II years of age, was play ing with his companions near his home in Tombstone Canyon, the crowd being engaged in the task of mining on a small scale. One of the boys discovered some dynamite caps in his house, and bringing them out the rest decided to have a blast, the same as real miners do. They thought that the caps had no more strength than the toy affairs used in cap pis tols, and young Stevens was selected to fire the shot.
 Placing a couple of the caps on rock, the boy struck them sharp ly with another, and immediately the air was rent by an agonizing cry. Four of the fingers of the boys hand were hanging by shreds of skin.
 [ The attention of the boys mother was attracted. and she quickly ran to the scene. The boy was carried home and the father at once summoned phy sicians. It was decided to take the boy to the Copper Queen hospital and on Sunday night, all of the fin gers, with the exception of the small one, had to be removed.
 Last evening the boy was resting well, although suffering from the shock. The physicians stated that there would probably be no further trouble unless blood poisoning set in, as a result of the boys playing m dirt just before the accident.
