William Bentley, mention of whom was made in the JOurnal-M Miner, re. gently, as the nephew of the late F. A. Bentley, who was the editor and proprietor of the Arizona Miner (now the JOurnalMiner), in 1s65-66 in an interesting reminiscent mood Saturday, recalled many thrilling events of that far away day in Pres .eott when life was insecure and it was not known at what moment the cruel Apache would claim another victim. Although he was a mere boy, but sixteen years of age, he remem- bers the danger attendant upon liv- ing in this little hamlet, not to men, rtiOn such hazardous undertakings as leaving the settlement, except under a strong escort.
 While his uncle was not classed as a fighting editor," nevertheless, he was a brave man, as were all in that day on the frontier, and from his intrepidity received a bullet from an Apache, which led to his death later. This was in the spring of 1868, and ip that memorable fight, Louis St. James, a resident of Pres 'oott today, was one of the partici- pants. In recalling this thrilling event, MT. St. James yesterday stated that he was with MT. Bent ley, both being en route to the old Bowers ranch, in Skull Valley, from Prescott. They travelled on horseback, and took the cutoff trail route of that day, which passes over a DOT 7tion of the present wagon road to Copper Basin. After reaching the latter place, and while going through a long ravine at low elevation, the party was fired upon. MT. Bentley, being in front, received the first wound. He was struck in the ab- domen, and fell from his horse With nerves of steel, and a firm determ-

HOBO
 OCCUPIES CELL IN JAIL
(From Fridays Daily.)

(From Fridays Daily.)
 James Miller, who worked the line at Humboldt from nickel to a first class meal, and created considerable alarm and nueasiness in his intimi- dating methods, was brought to the city yesterday, by Deputy Sheriff Campbell, and will occupy a cell in the county jail for the next thirty days. He will also remember one residence as an uninviting place, that of Mrs. Robert Scnwanbeck. He at tempted to intimidate her, and a double barrelled shot gun greeted him in response to his demand for money. This nervy housewife displayed the weapon, threatening to turn it loose if he persisted in his attempt to carry out his design. Baffled at that home, Miller next went to Barney's boarding house, getting bolder as time passed and money was less in evidence. He met with forcible re sistanee, this landlord promptly get ting him into line with everything that his hands could reach, and af- ter the fusillade Miller was found in a dazed condition outside of the house, when he was arrested and tried for his misconduct. b..

SENTENCE PRONOUNCED
 ON CHAVEZ
From Tuesdays Daily)

From Tuesdays Daily)
 With the air of a bravadO, and
 smiling with evident satisfaction as
 the words came solemnly from the
 lips of Judge Doe, sentencing him
 to expiate his crime on the galiows.
 \. B. Chavez, in the shadow of the
 gallows, yesterday laughed his life
 away. As he stood erect, with not
 a muscle in his frame quivering, and
 his eOuntenance beaming with a
 triekle that seemed to indicate pleas
 ure, and satisfaction, the murderer
 of Charles King heard his fate. The
 scene was dramatic, and was without a counterpart known in this or any other community in Arizona. After
 the day was set on which he was
 to meet his doom, and with the
 farewell, "May God have mercy on your soul, Chavez was beekoned to
 the door. As he turned around to be
 led away, his features assumed a stolid expression of disdain, and then In an instant he was ready to laugh aloud. As he came down the stair way, his conduct continued to re- fleet this physical merriment, and as he entered his cell with the same ap- parent ease and mirtnful disposition.
 The spectacle attracted the atten- ton of the court, members of the bar and spectators. Chavez was sen fenced to hang on Friday, March lIth, and yesterday afternoon was taken to Florence to await his ex- ecutiOn. His demeanOr at the depot and while on the train in the custody Of Sheriff Smith. was stolid and ap- parently careless of the fate that awaited him. He was permitted to converse freely with his eountrymen, and the same disposition and the same smile passed over his features He stated to friends that the day or the deed is of little concern, much less alarm, to him. He says that he will go to the unknown with the same disposition and is firm in his belief that he is not meeting just fate.
 Standing by the side of Chavez, and hearing his doom pronounced, was Eruardo Perez, who also was ready to hear sentence of death. But through questions of legal procedure, Perez for the second time since be- ing convicted of murder. was again permitted to go to his cell without listening to the doom that Chavez faced. Attorneys for Perez have ad- 1 vanced certain legal questions in his behalf, and until they are disposed | of he will have until February 2nd l to await his sentence for killing Eel | icianO Cnacon near Congress June ton, last August.
 After the sentence was pronounced, Paul KrisnOvieh. convicted of asl | sault on Granville Fain, last October, at Humboldt, was found guilty by the jury of simple assault, with a reeom- mendation of the lightest possible was told to stand up. He was given the maximum penalty by Judge Doe, which includes a fine of s1sO. or ninety days in the county jail. KrisnOvieh went to jail, but in T few days, his friends state, will be liberated He stabbed MT. Fain in the back, while the latter, with other 5tockmen, was in a business house. For several days Mir. Fain was con fined to his bed as a result of the wounds.
