The February number of this excellent magazine was on sale at the Sonora News Co.,, last week. We say "was on sale" as the edition sold inside of a few hours. This magazine had a charming story by our local au- thor Rev. w. A. Laughlin. - "The Courage of a Coward" which pleased all who had the good fortune of reading it. Other articles will appear in the near future. We commend this ma gazine on account if it's literary and mechanical excellence and prophecy that it will win friends right along.

After attempting to secure the release from the territorial in sane asylum of Capt. Stephen A. O'COnnOr, a retired army officer, A. A.

Beauchamp, superin- tendent of the asylum, Governor, Sloan, and the territorial board of control. This followed a court proceeding on Tuesday when application was made in the district court for a writ of hab- eas corpus, which was denied.
 Capt. O'Connor was committed to the asylum recently by the probate court of Santa Cruz county on the ground of para noia.
 Capt. O'Connor, served fl years in the army, rising from private to the rank of captain. He was given distinguished praise by the war department for igallantry in action at Manila in the historic charge on the Mani la Notifications.

WOULD END MEXICAN REVOLT.
Report in Washington Confirmed by Provisional Governor of
 Chihuahua.
Associated PreSS)

Washington, Feb. 26.-Dr. Vasquez Gomez, head of the
 confidential agency here of the
 Mexican Revolutionists, anno-
 unced tonight that he had re-
 ceived, indirectly, overtures for peace from the Federal Govern ment.
 Dr. Gomez said the confidential agency here had been advised by it's junta in Fl Paso, Tex, of the desire of Gov. Ahumada of Chihuahua to confer in Chihua- hua with Francisco I. Madero, leader of the revolution, and also had been informed through it's junta in San Antonio that three delegates of the Diaz gov ernment wished to meet Dr. Gomez on the border and ar range for the termination of hOStilitieS.
 DEMAND CREDENTIALS.
 Dr. Gomez, who was the fami- ly physician of President Diaz and who was, in the last election, candidate for the vice-presidency of Mexico on the same ticket as Francisco l. Madero, the candi- date for President, said the provisional government would not undertake any negotiations of peace, except under the con- dition that the delegates shall be legally and fully authorized with written powers.
 He added it was further de- sired by the revolutioniStS that the arrangement for peace, ne- gotiations should be published and recognized by the Federal government officially.
 These steps, he explained, were necessary because of the by the Federal gov ernment of connection with the peace conference arranged by Gov. Sanchez last November.
 Dr. Gomez asserted the re- would insist upon the abdication of the presidency by Diaz, and that tonight he to the junta at San Antonio for information as to peace and tde names of the three peace envOyS sent there by Diaz.
 El PaSo, Feb. 26.-Confirma- ton of the report from Washing 5on that the local insurrecto iunta had been approached by the MeXicanS, who claimed to the Diaz government, with peace OvertureS, was had i,, to 1,,.o ham Gonzales, provisional Gov ernOr of Chihuahua, to a local 1ewSpaperman.
 Three envOys, said to be pro- ninent in government affairs in Mexico, visited Fl Paso quietly tbOut ten days ago, according to Gonzales. They met Gonzales md Raul Madero, brother of Francisco I. Madero, provisional president and now in the field with the insurrecto forces at Ahumada.
 GONZALES'S VERSION.
 According to Gonzales, the envOyS asked upon what terms he inSurrectoS would accept peace and were informed that jhe provisional government would not treat with them until hey presented credentials from jhe Mexican Congress or Pres dent Diaz.
 They were told further that he first requirement of the in- in any plan for estab- ishing peace "must be a guar lntee from the Mexican Gov ,rnment that every provision of he constitution of 1857 would be put into effect immediately and orever maintained" Another is that neither the President nor any other govern nent official shall be eligible to collection.
 The envoyS were also given to that before the pro- officials could accept peace terms, soldiers in the ield under the inSurrecto banner would have to ratify them by Ormal vote.

.DARSI'S REPORT
IS SUBMITTED
High Praise is Given Fire
Marshal's Department
and Officials.


CHARLESTON, Jan. 14.-Showing
the state of West Virginia in nm ex-
cellent condition. Auditor Darst has
filed his report before the legislature.
BY rigid economy the appropriation
for contingent expenses of the de-
partment in the sum of $500 annu-
ally has been sufficient but IT is neces-
sary for office improvements and the
auditor has asked the Legislative body
for an appropriation of $4,000.
The majority of the present sher-
IFS and other county officials collect
ing state revenue have been exceed
ingly prompt in adjusting their obli-
gations. No litigation has been neces-
sary to procure settlements with eoun-
ty officials and there are no prospec-
tive losses so far as these officials are
concerned. The department has been
instrumental in warning the people of
the state who We're being deceived by
insurance companies and charged ex-
cessive rates. The insurance laws
have been made very rigid by the Re-
publican party.
The Office of the state fire marshal
was created at the last session of>the
legislature and in his report Auditor
Darst stated the flee has proven a
great success. He paid a high trtb-
ute to the work of Charles A. Ellison
and Deputy Marshal NJ. C. Kindelber-
ger. of Wheeling. The insurance COM
'panies are assessed one-fourth per
cent and the revenue last year
amounted to about 5000. The mum
Der of cases of arson have greatly de-
creased. During the last year the de-
partment shows that seven persons
were convicted and sentenced to the
penitentiary.
In his recommendations Auditor
Darst suggests that the legislature
change the tax Of five per cent on
acres OF land held in excess of 10000
acres by corporations to land held by
either corporations, special interests
or persons, which would increase the
revenue many thousands of dollars
annually.

Kill
Two Men in the Penitentiary
to Round Out His
Bad Career.

MouNDsNlI4LE, Jan. There
are just two more men behind these
walls that want to kill, then the
sooner die, the better. Id rather
be dead now than have 10 I've as /
am, but I'll get those fellows ii /
get the slightest chance"
sueh was the startling statement
made a Jew days ago by ocar
Phippss murderer OF a, least two
men, one OF whom he killed in one
OF the prison shops, about two years
ago. Phipps, who is a negro of giant
proportions, was originally sent up
to be executed for the murder OF an
other negro in Mcdowell county. A
few days before the lime set for the
hanging his sentence was committed
70 life imprisonment ~ the govern
or. Shortly afterwards he was
placed TO work in tn" PANTS factory.
He had been there Bit u brief time
when he deliberately Killed fellow
workman, also a negro, with knife
made from shear aade. He was
subdued by the guards only after a
hard struggle. He was placed in
close confinement, but after month
or so was again allowed the privilege
accorded other prisoners. Promptly
the blood thurst overwhelmed him
and again ne attempted 10 murdel
another fellow prisoacr. Warden
Matthews, who was in charge Of the
prison at the time, ordered s,hlm
again placed in Close confinement
aud for several days after Philips
conducted himself much in the man
ner Of yeritable demon, raging
and tearing about his cen like wild
man making it positively dangerous
for even armed guards TO enter his
ccl}. 1t was then rbat the most
sti ngent methods were resomed to
~ Warden Matthews, who ordered
the negro chained to the bars of his
cen. with his movements limited to
tn length OF the stee! links. Since
that time three months or more have
ela,ged without a serious outbreak
maalfesting itself on the part Of the
will negro. but the pen!teutiary Of
