However. it may be said that the pro pTietress of a well known rooming house in Bisbee yesterday discovered in one of the rooms of her house. a package of dynamite weighing four or five pounds. The explosive was removed to the city hall and is now stored with the dynamite used by the city.
 The authorities have been investi- gating the peculiar affair, but at the present time are unable to state the dynamite was taken to the rooming house with the intent of blowing up the building. or whether 1t was stolen by a miner aud stored there until he could find q safer place to put it.
