The stage robbery at Cane"8pings,
In which a woman appeared as princi
pal" was the sensation of the year, and
the newspapers and periodicals have
published column aftr eokifan'ofa
nauseating details until the people are
heartly sick of the matter.
The woman in the case,- Pearl 'Hart,
is a notoriocs prostitute and morphine i
fiend, well-k-nown ia Phoemix,' her com
panion a half-witted Frenchman known
as Joe Boot.' A Pinal county grand jury
indicted them jointly, bringing in'twon
true bills, one for robbing' Oscar -J,
Neill of $390 and the other for robbing!
the stage driver, Benry -Bacon, :of' a
six-shooter. ! i
Tbe trial of Pearl Hart, came tp last

first charge.' Morrison & Griffin had
been appointed by the Court todefilnd,
and they performed' their duty- a&ly

was etpeoially touching-- and Ke eled
the jurors as well t's' those iutire-etHsrt-room.
Jou- Boot having already plead guilty,
was brought on AS' the princi pal Witness
for the defense, and Uis testimony that
he-had compelled Pearl Hart, to take
part in the robbery doubtless' '4iaa its
effect.
In the 'Bfcond trial,' however, the
sympathy dodge didn't teeth to work,
and although the same testimony was
offered, thejury brought1n verdict of
guilty after oeing'bnt thirty minutes.

" In il4rerview. with Mining Engin
eer Oi' O. McNamara he gave the Tki-BcsR-iBiio
tbe following informs tionTn
reitftioa to that part of the Pioneer
Mining District that lies between Min
eral '-Hill and Box Canyon.
' "Yes," aid Mr. McNamara, "Mr. E.
T.'SmUh and myself have secured by
pttrohase and located 14 claims, aggre.
gating over 500 feet of development
work in the way of shafts, tunnels,
dHfis, etc.
" 14 In this district there is one vein fully
100 feet wide cutting the country froaa
ocrthwest to southeast and traceaUa
Iry the croppings for over two milea.
This lode carries copper in sulphareta
and will average from 4 per cent t 6.
percent with about $10 in gold-and
silver; this ore can be readily concen
trated 20 to 30 into' one. I have- not
yet made assays of the concentrates,
but if it holds its valuea it. can be
readily seen that the property can. be
made to pay from the start.
"We also have a group of Eve claims
carrying carbonates of load and galena.
Thesf veins are from & to feet v?irt
and gave ly (ire as-saj from lO'pt-r cent
to CO per cent lead with a biutill value
in cold aud silver.
"But in my judgment th-a best prop
erty in the district is a discovery made
by myself aud 'iaovrn a the Mint
Morgan. Breaki ng a piece of orutuary
looking float tb at proved to be almost
pure chalcopyrete,. led to this dis
covery, and wi th the aide of Mv. J. H .
Brown the voio was soon found and
proved to be fully 30 feet wide.
Average st-.mples of the eroppinga
yielded by ussay: copper 21 80 pe cent,
gold 1.60 ounces, silver 0.50 ounces,
making a total value of $117.24 pec
ton. A -force of men will be put to
work at once en Shis claim and tbe
Minla Morgan will undoubtedly prove
a pay mine from the start.
"Throughout this section there is
also considerable gold bearing quartz
which, however, is notfree milling but
amenable to-cyanide treatment.
"There was a great rush to this dis
trict and coaaiderable development
was done during the halcyon days of
the Silver King, 15 or 23 years ago. On
the decline of silver work was discon
tinued, aud indeed many of the prop-.
ertiea were abandoned.
"Ia these days little attention was
puid to gold quartz in Pioneer District,,
unless it was property free milling. Un
fortunately the gold bearing rock will
not plate 20 per cent of it value.
You see 15, years ago very little was
known about the cyanide treatment;,
in fact, it bas only been in the laat fonr
wr five years that it has been successful
ly ctrated Now ores of the character
that I've found in abuudaoce will
been ordered .

icnsly awaiting news from Washing-
(ton, where on Thursday the seeietary
?f the treasury was expected to act
upon the findings in the second inves
tigation of Collector Chenoweth's ad
ministration of the Nogales custitn
house. The reports and findings of
the special agents of the treasury de
partment, Messrs. Converse J. Smith
of Boston, and J. T. Power of San
Francisco, who conducted tbe investi
gation, was filed with Secretary Gage
some three weeks ago. There is no
violation of confidence in stating that
the investigating commission reported
that the original charge against tbe
collector, upon which he wasdisuiisaed
tampering with the civil service ex
aminations was fully proved.. Ia ad
dition to that the investigator dug up
seven other charges against Mr. Cheno
weth and submitted slroDg proofs in
substantition of each. Tbey recom
mended that the removal from office of
Mr. Chenoweth, made by tbe president
upon July 5th, stand approved.

senting Mr. Chenoweth appeared be
fore tbe secretary and asked to be per

Thursday of the present week tbe 9th

Output of the Klondike.
No one will ever know exactly how
much gold was taken from the Klon
dike fields the past season. Since the
English government imposed a royalty
the miners hare adopted all sorts of
ruses to evade tbe law. It is rather
difficult to dodge taxes, but it is more
difficult to dodge a bad cold and the
crin at this time of year. When the
system Is weakened by such attacks,
and the blood becomes thin and im
poverished, the best medicine to take
is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. This
remedy builds up the system. Besides
recrulatinir digestion, it overcomes
constipation. It is good for the kid
neys and liver, too, stimulating these
organs into the proper performance of
their functions. Nothing is so good
or malaria.

Another Railroad Yarn-,
IP rom the Tuoaoo Star.
An El Paso paper claims that the
Southern. Pacifie company will attempt
to shorten its main line west of El Pa
so. In connection with the punchaae of
the Arizona and New Mexico, the road
intends building a route which is to
commence at Sentinel station, Arizona,
near the California line.
It extends through the Buckeye dis
trict of the Gila valley, into the Salt
rirer valley and through Phoenix and
tbe towns of Tempe and Mesa across
the Sacaton piain to Florence, up the
Gila throngh Safford, Pima and upper
Oila valley towns,, crossing tbe Gila
Valley,. Globe and Northern railroad at
Doocan and to a connection somewhere
in New Mexico with the main line.
While the road if built would-tap a
rich section of countrythere is.no rea
son for believing that such a road will
be built for several years. Ultimately
railway lines will touch all of the
porats named,, and it is to be hoped
that as a natural center for. trade Tuc
son- will neglect qo opportuniiy to have
rail connection with the nearby settle
ments such as Nogales, trlorence, Mam
moth, Helvetia, and. numerous- other
mining caoun.
