The cleverness Of the burglar is
accentuated by the fact that during
the hours mentioned some one Of
the house was constantly in the
hall and within few feet Of the
door to Mrs Meeks' room. The
crime was reported to the police
and other officers shortly after Mrs.
Meeks discovered her loss but no
arrests have been made.
Silver Belt: A lone bandit,
masked and wearing a gunny sack,
held up the Black Jack game in
the White House at the corner of
Oak and Broad streets at about 2
O'Clock this morning and got away
with about 5000 all in silver. He
entered the saloon when there were
but two men present, Ed. Michel
son who runs the game, and Char
ley Holdren, bartender. He forced
them to line up at the back end of
the room with their hands in the
air, while he scooped the load Of
silver from the gaming table, which
is near the door, into his sack. He
made no attempt to secure the
money in the cash register, and
after looting the game, when back
ing out OF the place, called out
with apparent satisfaction: "Well,
Pm even with one - Black Jack
game, anyway"

pounded in the dams near Williams
is now frozen to the depth of five
or six inches, and affords fine skat-

Mohave County Miner: One
hundred thousand head of sheep
are on their way to this county,
where shearing will be commenced
some time next month. Pens have
been erected in Kingman and it is
probable that machinery will be
put in to do the work. Sheepmen
claim that the ranges of Mohave

Yuma Enterprise: A bamboo

the ground can be put in condition
to foster its growth. William D.
Hills OF the Agricultural Depart

confer with w. A. Peterson about
establishing a grove here in June.
Mr.. Hills came direct from Japan,
where he has been for the past

Imperial Standard: John Sny-
der of Brawley leads the procession

more were planted in that section.
This is done on the chance of con-
tinued growing weather, though
with full knowledge that this very
early planting is liable to lead to
loss of seed and the necessity for
replanting, but the growers are
willing to take the long chance Of
making a big thing out of an ex-
tremely early product.

NEGRO TRIES TO DIE IN CELL.
Fearing Lynching for Attack on
Woman, Cuts Throat With Glass.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CUMBERLAND, March oO-Danief An
derson, the negro in Jail here on a charge
Of attempted criminal assault last Satur-
day night on Mrs. Martha Robinette,
widow. on Johnson street. Cumberland,
attempted to commit suicide last night
by gashing his throat with a piece of
glass.
Anderson had been Respondent. , In his
cell after his arrest Saturday night he
displayed terror of lynching. He asked
then to be killed at once.
At that time there was some talk of a
mob taking Anderson out. This had all
died down.
Shortly before midnight last night
Sheriff Hodel was called to the cell room
by prisoners and informed that groans
had been heard from the cell occupied by
Anderson. The negro was found with his
throat badly gashed. It is not known
how the man obtained the glass.
The sheriff tefephoned for physicians
DIR. A. Leo Franklin, who promptly re-
sponded, sewed up the cut.
A strict watch on the prisoner Is now
maintained. 1t Is thought he will re-
cover.

Mineral Fertilizers.

From the Scientific American.
Recent discoveries in regard to the ma
ture of seed fertility have suggested the
employment of various fertilizers. Man.
sanese has been applied with success.
and now NJ Rigaux has published an ac-
{ mt of a series of experiments, made in
Belgium. in the employment of magnesia
as fertilizer for cereals, potatoes. Deets
and leguminous crops. The magnesia
was applied i'll the form OF kainlt or
Stassfurt potash salt. which contains
ii per cent OF magnesium sulphate.
Rigaux had previously proved that tht
quantity of Inagnesia in arabic lano Is
smaller than Is generally supposed, and
the surface soil always contains less
magnesia than the subsoil. Magnesia Is
found in plants in considerable quantities,
constituting, for example, l3 per cent or
the ash of wheat and $ per cent OF the
ash OF oats. Hence, II no magnesium
fertilizer is applied. repeated cropping
must exhaust the magnesia or the soil, to
shs dStriment of succeeding crops. 1t ap-
reared proba BILE. therefore, that tie appll-
cation OF lnagnesia would produce a bene-
fetal effect This theoretical conclusion
YVES fully confirmed by the experiments.

Adds B. Browne Considers That
Public Will Appreciate Benefits
of Proposition and Subscribe.

Great efforts are being made by the
committee having the construction of the
new auditorium in charge to arouse pop
ular interest in the project. 1t is desired
to secure as large a number of popular
subscriptions as possible.
Arrangements have been made for a
general canvass of the city. A number Of
different plans have been suggested for
stimulating local enthusiasm.
Adds B. Browne. one of the members
of the committee, said last night that he
was in favor of holding a great musical
festival. which would not only net a con-
siderable sum for the enterprise, but
would show the public the need for such
a gathering place as the auditorium would
furnish.
In this connection Mr.. Browne called
attention to the great auditorium in ST.
