Andrew Nigro Has Nose Broken and
Valuable Harp Smahed in Run
away Last Saturday.

Andrew Nigro had his nose brok-
EN-, his entire left side badly bruised
and valuable harp belonging to
him completely ruined in a runaway
which happened last Saturday after
noon about four o'clock. In the
Zig at the time of the accident in
addition to Mr.. Nigro were Carl N.
Thompson, Henry P. Nelson and
the driver. The others were un-
hurt.
The rig left here about half past
three o'clock for camp No. 3 where
Messrs. Nigro and Thompson were
to play in the orchestra for the ban
luet given there Saturday evening.
AS they approached the hill right out
of town, the team, which belongs to
r. A. Keenan,, became frightened at
something. and in trying to quiet
them down, the driver broke one OF
The reins. The horses then made
short turn and upset the buggy,
Throwing Mr.. Nigro out with con-
siderable force. The rest of the
party had jumped when the trouble
started.
Altho severely bruised and shak-
EN- up, Mr.. Nigro is able to be about
hgain with the aid of a walking
stick. It is feared that he may
have sustained internal injuries.
Andrew keenly feels the loss Of his
harp which was one Of his most
highly priced possessions.

Health Ordinance Introduced--2nd Ave.
to Be Macadamized--T To Adver-
tise for Bids on Crossings.

- speCial Injecting ol lHe Guy
council was held Tuesday evening,
this being the first meeting for some
time, City Clerk jameson having
been laid up by sickness.
Polich Bros. presented petition
for permission to put in an entrance
to basement on south side of their
building on Railway avenue, which
was granted.
The clerk introduced health or
dinance providing for a board Of
health, which will be officially acted
upon at the next meeting.
City Engineer Bushnell was in
structed to prepare plans and speci-
tications for four crosswalks. As
soon as the plans are approved bids
for the construction Of the walks
will be advertised for. Two cross
walks will be put in on Main street
connecting the corners at First Ma
tional Bank and Roundup Drug
Store and Schrump's store and
Citizens State Bank, and two on
Railway avenue. Crosswalks will
also be put in the east side Of Main
street as soon as the sidewalks are
completed. As the time limit set
on the lying of cement sidewalks
within the improvement district
has expired. the council will 90
ahead with the work wherever it
deems the need is most imperative,
charging the same against the pro-
perty owners.
The property owners on Second
avenue appeared with proposition
to haul gravel for the macadamiz-
ing Of that street providing the city
would pay Tor the loading. The
plan is to macadamize that street
from Nam street to the house track
there being considerable traffic on
this thorofarc. The council has not
yet taken definite action in the
matter, but as it will mean a big
saving to the city and would great
ly improve that street, which be-
comes almost impossible during
wet weather. the proposition will
no doubt be accepted.
City Clerk jameson excerpts to
finish the census Of Roundup this
week, after which steps will immed-
lately be taken to make Roundup a
city of the third class.

+ c. Lohmans Dixie" Outruns FORSYTH
Iorse--7 Arrested for Betting.
One for Horse Stealing.

An exciting quarter-mile horse
race was run here Sunday afternoon
between ]. G. Lohman's Dixie"
and horse belonging to J. II.
Cooper Of Forsyth. this event fur
nishing the principle topic Of con-
vesation in Roundup all week. The
race was won by Dixie" by a mar
row margin.
The race was run on the four-hun-
dred yard stretch north OF town in
the presence Of a large crowd. The
horses We're thought to be evenly
matched and bets were ready on
both sides. At the start tie For
syth horse took the lead, but was
soon out-stripped by "Dixie.' who
crossed the tape at least two lengths
to the good. The rider of the For
syth horse lost his stirrups in the
race and finished with his feet
dangling in the air. Earl Lohman
rode Dixie
Ii the race itself was not exciting
enough, subsequent events certainly
have been. Seven arrests have been
made for betting on a horse race
and one for horse stealing, the out
come Of which cases is causing con-
siderable speculation around town.
1t appears that in arranging the
race, Cooper put up his horse against
$3.50 that he would win the race.
upon which terms he was taken up.
After the race he made the allega-
tlon that his horse had been doped
and, as the winners had gained
possession of the animal, he COM
menced proceedings to recover it..
Shortly after the race the horse was
sold to Tom Lamb and Geo. Lyons.
Cooper then made an attempt to put
aside the sale on the ground that
there was IA mortgage against the
horse. Tuesday night Tom Lamb
went to Bruckert's livery barn and
took the horse he had purchased,
and the next morning was arrested
for stealing what he believed to be
his own horse. Then to make things
still more interesting seven addi-
tlonal arrests We're made for betting
on the result of horse race in
violation Of the anti-racing law
passed by the legislature last win
ter. The seven arrests are as fol-
lows: J, II, Cooper, J. G. Lohman,
W. f. Strait, Thos. Lamb, Wilson
Owens, +. J. Cruli and B. +. Bruck-
ert. All OF the parties are out un.
der bonds.
County Attorney Huntoon will be
down from Lewistown Sunday even
ing and the cases will come up
Monday. It is difficult to coniec-
ture what dispositions will be made
of the cases, as there are number
of peculiar points involved.

 Heney raised his voice to say: | l" No one has been dynamited or shot on your side of the case up to this time, and you may be sure we don t hire people for that purpose. Judge Lawlor directed Moore to re- sume his seat, and when the attorney asked, (which seati'' the court, with unusual aeerbity, said:
 "lf you attempt to act flippantly toward this court, you will occupy a seat in the county jail.'
 Judge Lawlor informed the attorneys that he had given them more than the usual measure of liberty during the trial, and while he did not wish to ap. pear in the capacity of pedagogue di- reeting school boys, he would not tol. crate any further breaches of decorum.
 Almost before the court had finished. MT. Moore charged that Heney was at. tempting to exploit his shooting.
 Heney sprang to his feet and began a bitter reply, when Judge Lawlor di- reeted him to resume his seat.
 "There are times when Heney does resort to somewhat bitter terms,' said the court, "but I am of the opinion the last remark of Mir. Moore is calcu lated to produce an explosion, and do not feel that Mir. Rogers should have made the remark ,he did.o
 Heney was again attempting to ex. plain his position when L. Y. Byington interposed as follows:

 Judge Lawlor's manner finally con. vinced the attorneys that punishment awaited any further breach of the courts orders and they resumed their seats.
 The juror, in the meantime, was m. willing to submit to the ordeal of any | examination, and his request to l be excused was allowed by both sides.
 After Judge Lawlor ordered adjourn. ment until next Tuesday, Heney en. gagged Stanley Moore in extended and earnest conversation.

DREDGES OPERATING ON THE HISTORIC
 HAsSAYAMPA
MINERS HAVE MUCH FAITH IN PLACER GROUND OF THE
 RIVER BED

| TUCSON, February 20.--That some
 startling developments will be reported
 from the Walnut Grove region, where
 three synd'cates are preparing to in
 stall dredges to recover the yellow metal from rich placer mines of that region,
 is the general opinion of mining engi.
 neers and miners who have visited that
 district.
 The richness of the bars of the Hass-
 ayampa river and creeks tributary to 1t has been proven in the last year by
 many tests. It has also been demon strated by experts that the ground will yield well when equipped and worked with dredging machinery similar to the plants now giving satisfactory results in California districts.
 The equipping of the mines has been delayed many months on account of the financial stringency of last year in the money markets of the east, but the owners of the properties now declare that they have the necessary capital to purchase and erect the necessary ma chinery, and commence the exploitation of. their holdings.
 On the ground owned by the Whit. sett & Olmstead syndicate a Keystone drill is in operation. The results of the test are guarded with the utmost secrecy. None but employees are al lowed on the ground Visitors are or. dered away as soon as they appear on the premises and no information is giv. en to the public. It is known, how ever, that the ground is proving richer than expected and that three dredging plants have already been purchased 10 be erected as soon as delivered.
 Dan Mccarthy is conducting exten- sive preliminary operations on the holl- ings of his company on Oak and Indian creeks. He is awaiting the delivery of a Keystone drill to add to his present equipment.
 The Douglas syndicate on Blind h. dian Creek is also preparing to start extensive prospecting on it's holdings. These placers are also very promising, according to the statements of prac- tical placer miners who are familiar | with the ground. ., ... ... ...
 Several placer miners are doing well | on the Hassayampa river and tributary | creeks working the ground by the sluiee box method while water is abundant.
