Mahard camp, after he got into the saddle, that he was exhausted from
 hunger and loss of sleep. He took to the hills after brief rest, and was presumably in that section last night. Sheriff Smith gave emphatic directions to Under Sheriff Raiblc in this city to keep the wires warm in every direction to warn officers of the escape of the murderers, and evinced the most earnest desire 70 effect their capture.
 Every little hamlet and gateway of travel has been notified, and if the criminals enter or pass through they will be intercepted. From advices at hand, if the men have left the country they have traversed sections where no hsbitations exist, which is quite improbable. Every onieer in every settlement of this and Marieopa counties have been notified, and . tally of the people passing through fails to give any clue or information that any have passed along.
 The news of the murder has spread like wildAfe ito the. adjoining, valleys and camps where the wives of men are living, and where they at times are alone through the vacations of their husbands calling them away for even a limited time. This was the report brought yesterday from Walnut Grove by J. B. Wright. He states that in that section many of the women living there were in terror, and feared harm when they were left alone. At other camps in tho hills, where the men 90 out to their claims, a like feeling was prevailing. The country is aroused, accordingly, and no similar demonstration has ever been chronicled as is in evidence par tieularly from the women who are at times alone in the small mining camps.
 Yesterday the eoroncr's jury was impannelled to investigate the cause of the death of the Mahards. It was without results, which only adds to the gloom of the terrible situation. The usual verdict was rendered that the crime was committed by some person or persons unknown, and the following named comprised the jury: William Dickson, Mark Warren, o. l.. Boggs. Officer Johnson, W. B. Bos- we'll and John Bluett.
 That the public is in earnest to run down the high.handed murderers and the people are stirred to render any assiatance- to. accomplish. thst pur. pose, is reflected in the generous out :. lay of money, Sheriff Smith person. ally offering a reward of e250 for their arrest and conviction, while the Board of Supervisors offer . reward of $500. Governor Sloan has been appealed to at Tucson, where he is attending the celebration, and inform cd of the rewards offered in this county, and asking what the Territory would offer. A response is expected this morning, and the total reward offered will reach over Sl,000, in all probability. This sentiment will give but a faint idea of the inter- este prevailing to capture the men and bring them to trial.
 Mir. Mahard, it was learned yester. day, was a member of Prescott lodge of the E. P. O. Elks, and his funeral, with that of his wife, will take place under their auspices, at s date to be later announced.

e25o Reward

For the arrest, dead or alive, of the men who brutally murdered George Mahard and wife at Gro Fino sixteen miles from here, some time yesterday morning. These men arc supposed 10 be two Mexicans, of whom l have no description what, ever at present.
 They have in their possession q 30. 30 rifle, a s5 esliber Remington auto. loading rifle, No. 5o96, and a 3O.3o Colts pistol. The Remington rifle and the pistol were the property of the man whom they killed.
 One of them may be riding a bay stallion, branded cross (seven.three connectcd), or cross (thrce.seven con. nected). Do not know what kind of horse the other man was riding. They may have had their own horses, or may have been on foot, but the bay stallion above described, which belonged to Mahard, is missing. They may now be on foot or may try to hit train somewhere.
 This crime is one of the most das- tardly and eold.blooded in the crim- inal annals of Arizona, and I earnest. ly urge every officer or other person receiving this circular, to do every thing in his power to effect the cap. ture of these two human fends.
 Do not allow any suspicious Mexi- can 10 pass without examination. Notify all pawn shops and second hand stores to be on the lookout for these guns, and to notify nearest of. fcer if any of them are offered for sale.
 The above reward is only prelim' mary reward. which may he increased later on to $1,OO0, when the Governor, with whom the matter will be taken up, is heard from.
 Wire me if any suspect is arrest cd, or any information whatever con corning these men, at my expense.

 Sheriff Yavapai County, Arizona

'vCENO|ARY FIRE
 tT OLSEN HOUSE

Fire did considerable damage to the N. P Olson house on Upper Opera drive at 6:30 o'clock yester. day morning. The fire started iii 8 clothes closet and spread to the adjoining room It was first seen by a man who was going to his work on o. K. trail. He saw the fire reflected on window and watch ing the light a minute decided that the house across the gulch was on fire He went to Constable McRea's house and an alarm was sent in from there.
 When the department reached the burning house the fire had broken through and had gained considerable headway. A line of hose from the hose stand near the old opera house was run up the hill and in a very short time the fire was Out. One room was badly damaged and some of the doors were brozen in. The loss will not be heavy.
 That the fire was of incendiary origin, there can be no doubt, as a bottle partly full of oil was found in the closet where the fire started by Captain Norton. The o. son family had not been in the house for several months having moved to Phoenix since which time the house has been closed. Papers bearing the date Cf December I were found in the closet with the bottle of oil.
 All the doors and windows in the house were fastened when the fire men reached the place. There has been no reason for any7ne going into the house this m nth and it is mystery how the newspapers bear ing the December date line got into the closet unless used to kindle the fire with. When the firemen first got into the house with the hose the smoke was so thick and strong that the pipemen were nearly suffocated.
 The house was a two story frame structure and cost more thac S2,OO0 to build. It was insured for Sl 900 and it is understood that there was no insurance on the furniture. There is no possible explanation for the fire except that it was the work Of a fire bug. There have been several fires lately in unoccupied houses for which no cause could be found and with all indications pointing 10 incendiaryism. WheI the fire broke out yesterday morn ing nearly all of the men living in the neighborhood had gone tc , their work and there was n mtocucH their work and there was n t muci help at hand. It is a long drat to pull the hose from the hydran up the hill and several women Twin: in the neighborhood took hold O the hose with the firemen and helpe' drag it np the steep hill.

THINKS JOHN is ALL RIGHT.

EDITOR Pilot:
To anyone who has cared to wade
through the daily slush of the corpo-
ration organ, it has been patent
that the present mayor, John La
mont, had, in some way, trod heavily
upon corporation toes: he has
probably ruled upon few things in
manner that did not set well upon
their broad, expansive stomachs,
hence, the daily knocking of their
organ. They will give all their old
shoes and a few new ones to boot. if
they can only find some one to beat
Mr.. Lamont. Well, they cart do it.
These men, whose feelings have been
hurt, couldn't bear to see che present
republican officials, who are holding
down seats in the city hall, voted out
of office, but they are going to raise
hades the coming week to see if they
can't get one of their own ilk that
can defeat John Lamont Why I?
Just because he has rlade an honest
mayor, and worked for the interest of
the whole of our people instead of the
interests of few
1t is time for the voter to wake up.
Can't You see what the scheme is?. A
certain clique want the laws admins
tered in the interest of few. This
is not John Lamont's style. So their
organ tries the old skin game of
working up a sentiment for one who
will do their bidding. In this they
will fail A VOTER.

was taken and it was decided to con-
tinue the Y. M. c. A. lecture course
next season. Since the announcement
after the last number of the course

discontinue these entertainments.
many protests have come in to the
management against doing this and
the committee in charge placed the
matter before the directors Friday
night and they decided to continue.
Every effort will be put forth 70
secure the strongest course that the
Y has ever presented TO the public of
Wausau, and the people may look for
well selected course for the season
of 1901.
The board also decided to purchase
a billiard table to replace the present
table in the parlors.
Harry Berger gave splendid talk
to the men Sunday afternoon.
A ski club has been organized
among the Y members, the cross

weather.
Work has commenced in the differ
ent gymnasium classes on another big
circus to be given some time in April.

A WORD FROM TEXAS.

In letter written by w. G. Pradt
from Woodsboro, Texas, on the 10th
of February, he gives an account of
farming operations there which are
in interesting contrast to the situa-
tion here. He writes: Tomorrow l
win plant about four acres Of corn. 1
planted potatoes last week. About
March 18th, | will put in about
twenty-five acres of cotton. We will
also very soon put in sorghum for
horse feen and about an acre of mel
ons for bog feed. Also two acres of
peanuts and two acres of sweet pota-
toes. | have them already bedded.
''As the ground is, in first class condi-
tion from winter rains everyone pre-
diets bumper crops. A bale of cotton
to the acre, worth about fifty dollars,
would be reasonable product.
1--WE have just had a three days
norther which froze a little ice and
brought small furry of snow. / was
at work at the time it came, covering
potatoes. in cotton shirt and pants
and sweating like butcher with a
warm south wind blowing, when all
at once the wind died and for fifteen
minutes the air was hot as mid-sum-
mer. Then suddenly came wailing
sound and a heavy north wind, cold
as ice was upon us and drove us into
the house for warm clothes and caps.
In one minute the mercury fell from
50 degrees to 80 degrees, and at sun
down it went below freezing. y

In a recent number of Harper'S
weekly there is a lengthy article
showing that it has become the
fashion for colleges to advertise for
new students throughout the country.
In this article they speak of Wiscon-
sin and other western states as follows:
SIN the present crowded condition
Of the state universities of the Central
West one reads with some degree of
wonder in a single edition of New
York paper formal advertisements of
the universities of Wisconsin. Michi-
gan and Illinois"
If readers of Harper's Weekly in
New York are surprised at the facts
set forth, what must be the surprise
of tax payers in Wisconsin who are
now heavily burdened with taxation
and ''reform"-a la LaFollette. We
would recommend to our townsman,
@. d. Jones, who is one of the Uni
Versity regents, to look this matter
up thoroughly and let us know when
the legislature of Wisconsin author
lied the regents to use the money of
the citizens of this state to draw
students from New York to swell the
costs of maintaining our present
university.

Re. Elect John Lamont.

EDITOR PILOT:
What is the matter with the demo-
Gratis of this countyP For one, l am
tired of playing the other fellows
game. We ought to insist upon the
reelection of John F. Lamont as an
Endorsement. What right have the
republicans to defeat him, especially
in a non-partisan election. We do
not need LaFollette influence here
We want square deal. If the repub-
licans want their men reelected, so
do we. Our people stand for low tax
es and now it is proposed to defeat
the mayor who gave them to us by
electing some other democrat. Vot-
ing for LaFollette and sustaining the
worst political machine Wisconsin
ever had, ought to cease. We
have furnished the votes and tile re-
publicans have all the gain and credit.
V
