Hurriedly the rob Der swept the cash from the cashier s drawer and as he mounted his horse Efromson and Assistant Cashier Fay Tor fired at him. He returned four shots with his Winchester rifle and made for the hills. He dropped two bags of silver in his haste, with sew eral deputies in pursuit.
 Deputy Sheriff Scott returned to- night for fresh horse, saying the bandit crossed the Frisco river seven miles south of town.

 SOON TO BE ACTIVE


 TUCSON, Ariz., Sept. s.-With the understanding that work will resume at once on a reduction plant which is to be operated in connection with the meine, the Kendall Ore Reduction company has leased the Ajo mines to N. c.

 The lessees agree to take an inven- tory of the property, so that it may be returned in as good condition as it is received. They agree to keep a watchman and protect the prem ises. They further agree to extract the entire width of ore and to tim Der the shaft wherever timbering is necessary. They owners are given the right to examine and inspect the properties at any time.

Another active mining proposition is under headway in the field where the big copper determinations were recently made on the Little Daisy, that of the Jerome Verde, where the practical exploiting of that property has assumed a diligent and practical regard within the past few days. Three shifts are under contract in sinking on the old Columbia shaft, and 4Ss feet is the point in the shaft where the work is being direct ed. At a point 4s4 feet in this work a sandstone formation was cut into. This condition in that belt is from ten feet to tnirty-five feet in thick ness. As soon as this formation is penetrated, the change will take the work into the primary belt.
 Excellent progress is being made and it is anticipated that inside of thirty days sufficient depth will be gained to warrant erosscutting for the known ore bodies that lie in the Verde Hill, which is a continuation of the Little Daisy, so far as the sur face workings on the latter are to be judged. The intention of the man agement in pursuing this method of developing the property is creating

Sinking of Old Columbia Shaft Being Pushed With Three Shifts
 Under Contract

very much interest in mining circles, and with the relative location of the Jerome Verde to that of the United Verde and the Little Daisy, the work is attracting much interest.
 Another potent matter linked to the Jerome Verde is the great num- Der of claims included in its own- ership, comprising twenty-eight pat ented, which adjoin the Daisy on the north and east, and the United Verde cn the east.
 Another matter of paramount Tela- tion is that from the Jerome Verde, where the main shaft is under sink ing to where the big. ore bodies were reached on the Daisy, the distance is less than 1900 feet, or practically the same distance from the main shaft of the United Verde to where the strike on the Daisy took place las: March.
 The Jerome Verde company owns several claims that are within 200 feet of where the Daisy ore bodies were determined. From this condition, the resumption of work on this enterprise is necessarily followed witb more of sn interesting consideration\ than or diDarily attaches to mining in belt of wonderful possibilities.

SOLDIER KILLED
 BY HIS OWN RIFLE
CFrom wednesday,s pailyl


 Engaged in cleaning his rifle in his quarters in Fort Whipple Bar racks, yesterday afternoon, at 1:45 O o'eloek, Private Thomas Moughan was shot and killed. Whether the shooting was accidental or done with suicidal intent has not been decided by the examining board. The bull let entered the body immediately over the heart, coming out on the left side of the back and going through the ceiling and roof. Death was almost instantaneous.
 Corporal Reilly of Company c, 18th Infantry, is said to have seen most of the accident. He was the first to reach the unfortunate man. Moughan was breathing his last when he ar rived at his side. Private Manning of Company was also attracted by the shot. He joined Corporal Reilly as their eOmrade was dying. Manning examined Moughan's gun and found an empty shell in it. There were several other soldiers asleep in the room when the shooting occurred.
 Private Moughan was born in Bal ingrove, Ireland, thirty-three years ago. He enlisted in the United States army six years ago, serving with Company c, 18th Infantry, in the Philippines. He re-enlisted on June Fist of this year. He was an excellent soldier, and very popular with the officers and men of the command in which he served. His death is deeply regretted at Fort Whipple, especially in his company, where to a man all express sorrow at his untimely end.
 His mother, residing in his native place, is the only known relative surviving. The body will be inferred in the Fort whipple cemetery this morning with military hOnors.

JOHN ]. JULIAN CALLED BY
 REAPER
CFrom Tuesdays Daily)


 John J. Julian, for the past four years a resident of this city, and a printer by occupation, dropped dead last night, at o'clock, on the cor ner of Cortez and Gurley streets, in front of the Biles-L -Lockhart store. No warning was given of the sudden summons and the supposition is that heart failure was the cause.
 The deceased had been in poor health for several months, suffering with chronic rheumatism, and a few days ago was seized with a bemor- rhage of the stomach, which no doubt hastened the end. He had been a resident of this county for about six years, coming from Wyoming. In that state, South Dakota and Mime .ota, he had been connected with iron mining, being regarded as an author ity in that calling.
 He had at one time some copper claims in the Black Hills, near Jer- one. For the past few years he abandoned his trade. He was a native of Iowa and about 56 years old.

 Asn Fork passed through a thrill ing experience for a few minutes, Monday afternoon, when Trinidad S. Carzugo, a belligerent Mexican, whip ped out a gun and attempted to hold up several Overland passengers who were strolling about the platform in front of the Escalante Hotel. As fast as he would level his weapon on them, there was an instant stam- pede for shelter and away from the the range of the weapon. Consider able excitement prevailed for a few minutes, and until the arrival of Dep uty Sheriff Bartlett the fears of the people were at the highest tension.
 Unfortunately, the many people who were disturbed were destined as through passengers, and the only complaint that could be legally lodged against the man, from the lack of witnesses, was for carrying concealed weapons, which were found on his person later by the above of fieer. He was brought to this city to stand trial for his offense, owing to the absence in California at the present time of Judge Kraemer of that precinct, and was given a straight sentence of 100 days in the county jail by Judge McLane, the maximum penalty under the statutes.
