Of late A. Colin of the New York-
store, on Fifth steet, has had ia his
employ a woman to clean up and at
tend to housework, and after she had
left for home on Saturday evening a
black silk dress patern was missed.,
and suspicion was at once attached to
the woman. A search warrant was
procured and placed in the hands of
Chief Coyle, who visited her residence
on Sunday morning. The Chief
searched the house but failed to find
what ho was in search of, but between
the house and another he found any
qaanlity of drpss goods, corsets, stock
ings, handkerchiefs, gloves, etc.; in
fact enough to 6tock a small store. As
the woman's husband was not here
and she had two small children, Mr.
and Mrs. Cohn generously refused to
prosecute her, a,nd she took her de
parture yesterday morning for parts
Unknown.

In San Francisco to-day, the old
soldiers are marching through the
streets and having a good time gener
ally. Twenty-two'of our own post of
tin's city are there, greeting their old
war comrades, while old glory
proudly floating on the breeze over
their heads. Heie in Tombstone to
day at the same hour thirty-five or
forty old veterans, were marching
down Allen street to the music of the
"Dead March of Saul," with old glory
furled and covered with crape, on
their way to the city cemetery to place
in his narrow homo comrade McMar-
tin who has answered the long roll,
and gone to join his comrades who
have gone before. Truly, Cleveland
need not trouble himself much more
about soldier's pensions, as a regi
ment a month are being mustered in
on the other shore.
Auotlici- Violent Oo.-ttii
Telegraphic intelligence from Fort
Thomas, states that Jerome B. Collins
was shot and killed by Bill Williams
a cattleman of Arivaipa Canyon, on
last Sunday. The cause which led to
the trouble which resulted so unpleas
antly is not definitely stated; one
telegram says the misunderstanding
arose about a cattle transaction, and
another' says it was a dispute about
grain and still another says that it
arose over the settlement of an ac
count. J. B. Collins was the most promin
ent merchant and government con
tractor in that section of Arizona.
His violent death was not unexpected,
as he was unfortunately possessed of
a quick temper which mastered him,
especially so, if under the influence
of liquor. He was both brave and
recklrss, always armed, and feared no
one. He had killed his man, in se f
defense, some years ago at Fort
Thomas, but the tragedy preyed upon
his mind. He had accumulated con
siderable wealth in cattle, lands and
merchandise ; he was in this city al
most two- weeks ago and estimated
his assets at about $75,000 ; his estate
will no doubt clean up $0,030. Ho
leaves a wife and three or four chil
dren, two of whom are girls who have
been attending the Convent school in
Tucson for some time.
Mr. Collins was formerly from
Texas, and was among the first to
settle at Thomas. He gave the name
of Maxly to the settlement in honor
of Senator Maxly of Texas. He has
done more to develop that section of
the country than any other man, and
was an untiring worker. He had a
big heart filled with good impulses,
and had a large circle of friends; but
alas! strong drink was more power
ful than he. ThefStar-iu common
i ' i , , , ... j
with hundreds of people of Anzonal
extends sympathy to the Lereavecl
family in their misfortune. Star.

then multiply it by 2, then to add 5,
then to multiply it by 50, then to add
her age, then to substract 3G5, then to
add 115, then tell her to tell you the

watchman. At the time one of the
mill men visited the office and riict a
man on the inside whom in the dark
ness mistook for Likens and sezied
him by the beaid. He made a menac
ing motion as if to dratf a weapon
and escaped together with his accom
plice. Entering the retort room Lik
ens was found on the "floor insensible
with blood issuing from a wound on
his head, A strong smell of chloro
form prevailed in the place. The
gold was untouched. They had got
the lid off the retort but it proved too
hot to handle and they had ho time
to" cool it when interrupted, Liken is
still insensible but there is no hope of
his recovery, There is no clue to tne
perpetrators.

Washington August 3 Allison
from the. conference committee on the
. , .' .,' -. -
euuuiy ciyij appropriation pin repor
ted that the committee had been un-
aijle to agree, The conferees had
one over every item in the bill with
great care There were certain points
a on which the house conferees were to
ask instructions from that body and
in which the senate conferees disired
the judgement of the senato. The
first difficulty related to the appro
priations for coast survey. The house
provision had reduced the appropria
tion for coast survey about $10,000 be
low the appropriation of last year and
made practically a new arrangement
and adjustment with reference to the
official force of survey creating new
offices abolishing old ones and chang
ing the composition of the field force
by allowing its reduction from sixty-
four to fifty-two as vacancies should
occur. The house conferees was that
lhe coast 8urvey had ,,eer 8mcG Au

a responsible head with scientific
knowledge the question could be
carefully taken un and also consider-
