If wo liavo in any way offended the big weather man we. hereby profusely apologize, in Ilia hope that ho will mend the bioken placet in the atmosphere. WllILC the east anil to tho west and to the north and tho south of im arc sweltering in their summer clothes, wn of this blessed section of tho land of sunshine are leveling in cool mountain zophyis, with an occasional spray of feathers from tho geese that dwell in the clouds. The frisky scalp-raising Apache Kid, liko tho backyaiil Thomas cat, seems to bear nine lives. Every few mouths ho is killed off in some Aiiona newspaper, but Iho Kid always bobs up serenely again as the supposed leader of a fresh Indian "outbreak." It would seem that tho price on the renegade Indian's head is enough to warrant nn expedition of famous Indian fighter against him.

The special agents of the Inteiinr department sent to Aiizoua to investigate the charges madu against Governor Hughes have brought tho governor and his nccusuis face to face. Tho governor has rather tho best of tho investigation, as his accusers must prove their charges to tho satisfaction of tho iuspcctois. It does not matter much how the investigation goes. Iho monkey and pat-tot time will still go on in tho democratic party in Arizona. Tun National Krpublir.in League lins assigned to Goorgo Christ, of No-gales, the impoi taut work of reorganizing tho league in Arizona.

This is a just recognition of valuable services leiuleie(l. Mr. Chiist was the best orgauizer of tho league in Arizona, and as an org.itiier and worker in the republican cauo his services are valued by the party leaders of tho east. In the reorganization of tho league in Arizona Mr. Chi 1st should oo aided by every republican who has tho interest of his party at heart.

A Tucson minister, who has grown discouraged over his unequal strugglo with tho devil at that place, ina public address stamped his foot emphatically and declared that tho old pueblo is so wicked sho should be wiped off tho faco of tho earth. This preacher probably exorcises tho same sort of Christian forbearance toward the weak and sinful that is a marked characteristic of some- local reformers we could mention, although wo will agree with him as to the moral status of Tucson. There certainly would be a big grease spot left if sho were summarily swiped off the footstool. The California papers are making considerable how-de-do over the reported engagement of young Irving Blinn, eon ot amllliouairo who formerly resided at Tombstono, to Genevievo Nan-nary, the ingenuo of the Daily Stock Compauy, which recently played a disastrous engagement in this territory. Blinn is scarcely worth all tho newspaper notoriety ho is receiving and Miss Nannary, although a nice modest young woman, is an actress of mediocre ability.

Then why make so much fuss over them? Lot them get spliced if they feel that way, and may tho devil grab tho first man that goes between (XLENDAIJ' 4iilllW Wen WS TUAUKDY OP THE HAILS. A TraTcltnc Unrbcr Meets a Terrl- bio Death. At 9:30 o'clock Sunday night Con stable Dickinson was directed to tho switch track cast of tho depot, where lie found the body of a man lying near the rails. He was in a semi-conscious condition but was rational enough to mutter indistinctly that ho had jumped from a moving train. Ho said his namo was jmi uarrett and that ho was a barber by trade, but before the officer could glc.in anything further, tho in- jiireu man swoonoii away.

Ho was taken to the county hospital and Dr. D. J. Brauntn was called to attend him. Tho doctor fouud that the back of tho head had been terribly fractured and made tho patient as comfortable as possible.

Ha lived about three. hours. A tegular army discharge, issued at ban traneisco, was found upon the dead man's person. Tho name on the paper is Charles F. Black and gives his ago as 34 and the placo of birth as Weston, Mo.

Tho unfortunate man carried with him a small va'ise which contained barbers' tools and a few artic'c3 of clothing. He had been working at Williams and Ash Fork recently and was in town Sunday. Why ho should have jumped from tho train is beyond theory, unless he found himself going in the wrong direction. Coroner Prime held an inquest, at which tht try rendered a verdict that Barrett, or Black, died from a wouuil on the back of his head caused by jumping from a moving train. Undei taker Whipple endeavored to find the relatives of tho dead man, and after considerable, expense in telegraphing found his brother, Harris Black, at Edgerton, but ho refused to do anything for the dead brother and tho body was buried in the potter's field.

TO THE CAXVOX. Many Vlilton Are Seelnc Nature's Greatest Wonder. Tho Grand Canyon is drawing tour ists from every direction. Supt. A G.

Wells' special car came in last Sunday and that gentleman, accompanied by a friend, wont out on the stage Monday morning. Attached to tho same train was the private car of K. II. Wade, general manager of the Southern California road. Accompanying Mr.

Wade were T. D. Stimson and son, capitalist; Col. 4. G.

Otis, of the Los Angeles Times; D.iniel Freeman and J. F. Byrne, general passenger agent of the Southern California. All tho last-named isitor.s are fiom Los Angeles, and they joined Mr. Wells and his friends, making a meiry parly of ell-fed and handsome looking tourists.

Following closely in the wako of their coach was another four-horse carryall bearing Mrs. II. Billing and ehild, Miss Billing and Miss Wurlitzer of Cincinnati. Ohio, who have been guests of tho Bank hotel. Tuesday morning another party, composed of N.

W. Prentice died at the county hospital at 9 o'clock Tuesday night of drops'. Deceased has resided in Ari zona for probably twenty years. Dur ing the building of the i ailro.ul through Aiizona he secured profitable contracts for ties and timbers used in construct- ng tho road, and at one time was well off so far as the goods of this world are concerned. Several yeais ago ho went into tho sheep business and continued until his death.

Billy Prentice, as he win familiarly call id, was always ready to assist a needy friend, and made a host of friends who sincerely regret his death. Deceased was a native of New York, about 68 oars of age. His only relative here is his half-sister, Mrs. E. It.

It would have tickled the funny bone of "Puck's" best cartoonist could he havo been present iu a local saloon Tuesday morning, when an excited beverage mixologist reached for his small game, exterminator. All you could see was flying coat-tails and ev ery possible exit was employed as a means of escape. Ono man hid under tho piano, another in tho general pauie took Jo tho roof and several of 'cm novel touched tho backyard fence as they bolted for shelter. A disagreement over a poker pot was tho eatiso of tho trouble. City Marshal Hochdeiffer was called in to act as arbitrator and be at once found himself looking down into the muzzle of a shotgun.

His own weapon clicked ominously, but luckily no blood was shed. It was a mistake and no arrests wero made. Ono week from to-morrow a large delegation of Southern California newspaper peoplo will arrive at Flag staff for their summer outiug.
