They wore returning from Globo whore thoy had boon to inspect tho Old Dominion mines for tho Lowiston Brothers, who contemplato purchasing tho property. They aro all loud in thoir praiso of the Globo mines, and Supt. Colquhoun pronounced them as fine as ho ever saw in tho west. Tho roport, presumably, will bo favorable to tho mines as most superior property, and upon that roport it is expected that the Lowiston Brothers will become tho purchasers. If so, tho plant will bogin operations again at an early day with tho probable addition of a leaching plant. Tho building of the railroad is of great advantago to tho Globo mines and will greatly cheapen tho cost of thoir operation. Tho prospect of tho of these mines will bo joyful news to tho peoplo of our valloy, whoso intorests will bo largely identical with those of our Globo noighbors. Out Where is On last Saturday afternoon in Solomonvillo it was plain to bo seen that something unusual was afloat, but not until shortly before sundown did tho public become awaro of tho fact that tho Apacho Indian or skinned out from tho county jail.

Tho last seen of him before the escapo ho was sitting in the rear room holding a "smelling" bottle to his nose to stimulate his nerves. "Whon tho escapo was discovered by the sheriff's officers, thoro was consdierablo "suppressed commotion" about tho court houso. Mr. Indian was trailed by tho boys out into tho barley field west of the court houso and it is supposed he made his way to tho reservation. Clerk Adams speaking to the In dian during tho day, jokingly said, tho Indian replied bimoby." In a short timo it was discovered that ho had really Now Harry Smith claims that Adams is an accomplice in tho escapo and is criminatus pusillanimous in tho crimo according to law. Adams lays it on to tho man who supplied tho Indian with tho "smelling" which generated too much "nerve" force. The Fourth at Thomas. Editor Guardian: Somobody, with an intent to injure our 4th of July celebration, started a roport that it was a lauuro as wo could not raiso but 860. To prove that this is a malicious untruth wo will say that each of our individual subscriptions is over this amount and tho subscriptions aro now over 8400.00, with many people to hear from.

Secretary Gresham died at 1:16 a. m. May 27th. At 0:45 p. m. tho secretary experienced another sinking spoil and tho gravest fears woro entertained that ho might not bo ablo to survivo it. Eestoratives wcro applied but tho cflect was not known. Assistant Sccretaryl TJh and Drs. Johnson and Prentiss were summoned to his bedroom. At 7:40 p.m. it was said that secretary Grc?ham could not survivo the night and telegrams woro sent to his son Otto, on routo to "Washington, to tako a special train from Pittsburg. At 10:45 tho physicians said he was dying but ho romained conscious and was ablo to talk. Shortly aftor midnight his death was considered only a question of momonts.

His wifo, daughter and son-in-law woro at his bedside when ho breathed his last. Tho secretary had long been in ill health. Two weeks ago his condition was so soriously regarded that his friends fearod what has just como to past. The remains of Gresham havo been embalmed.

Delegate Murphy Writes to Secretary Lamont About the Indians. Tho Los Angolas Times says: Hon. Oaks Hurphy, delegate to Congress, has written to the Secretary of "War that from reliable information it is learned that tho Indians aro restless and threatening; that a sense of insecurity prevails, and that such a condition is a great injury to Arizona lie urges the importance of strengthening tho military forco at'San Carlos and vicinity. In conclusion the letter says that it seems only just and proper that so long as tho possi bility of danger exists from the un tamed Indians that amplo and effec tive protection should bo afforded to life and proporty. "It is my judgement," ho writes, "that no protracted Apache war will over again occur, especially if an adequato military forco is maintained at exposed points. It is hoped that no serious troublo will result now, although a fow hostiles may commit many atrocities." Ho assigns as tho cause of tho disturbance tho inadequacy of rations and of compensation for rights-of-way through tho reservation. This, however, ho states is merely an oxcuso. Benefit Dance. The Athletic Base Ball Club will give a grand benefit dance in Jacob-son's hall Friday ovening,June 7th. Tho proceods of tho dance will bo used to pay for tho now uniforms just ordered.

He is also considering tho advisabily of devoting a largo room on tho upper story to tho interest of secrot societies. This is a move in tho right direction, and thoro can bo no doubt but that it would be a good investment. C 9 Snow on Mt. Graham. Snow foil on tho summit of Mt.

Tho Eighteenth Lccislaturo of Arizona created scverallawswhich jibe "sweet bells jangle ont of tunc." Perhaps tho most consipcuous ex- , amplo ol tho conllictions arising from the inconsistences of tho acts of tho "Kindergarten Eighteenth" is tho Act creating the Board.of Immigration Commisioncrs, and tho law classifying counties. Undor tho law now in forco counties m this Tci ritory aro divided into six classes, based upon assessed valuation of proporty. Tho law establishing tho Board of Immigration Commissioners makes provision for tho appointment of Commissioners in all tho counties, and provides compensation for thoso in tho first, second, and third class, only. There aro only four counties in tho territory under this law which can or possibly could havo paid commissioners, or hired advertisers to play tho bazoo for tho countios. With this law counties of tha fourth, fifth and sixth class could havo no objection, if those counties which can tako tho benofit of this Act were mado to bear tho entira expense, in tho language ol tn act it provides for the "publication and distribution of information, for tho edification and oulightment of persons who may be induced to settle in tho county or make investments therein." Ono section provides that tho Board shall meet once a year at tho Capital, each commissioner shall make a roport to tho Governor, "said roports to bo published in full in pamphlet form and in such quantities as tho Board may elect and bo distributed in a manner consistent with the best interests of the Terrttory, and the expense of such publication and its distribution shall bo paid by a warrant drawn upoji tho Territorial Treasury. t This is the fly in tho ointment f that tho whole Territory should1, i pay for tho advertisement of thes four counties, and it is doubtful whether tho law bo valid unde theso circumstances. The administration has already distributed its favors and caused commissioners to bo issued to all o counties.
