OVER FORTY MEN KILLED.

Terrible Besults of a Family Feud In Arl->ona-The Latent Killing. At Phoenix, Ari., Tom Graham was shot and killed by Ed Tewksbury. Both were well-known citizens, Graham being a cattle-raiser and Tewksbury a sheep man. The shooting occurred near Graham’s ranch, a short distance from Tempo, as Graham was going to Tempo with a load of grain. Tewksbury, who lives in Tonto Basin, spent Monday night In Tempe, and rode out to meet Graham. The shooting was the result of a family feud of five years’ standing, during which time twenty seven men have been killed on Graham’s side and fourteen on Tewksbury's. Graham was the last one of four brothers, all killed, and Tewksbury the last of six. A posse of officers and citizens is in pursuit of Tewksbury, who will be lynched if caught., Too Much Kot About Mars. Owing to the wide interest excited over the possible results of the present observations of the planet Mars by exat the Lick observatory, Prof. Edward S. Holden, in charge of .observations at Mount Hamilton, has telegraphed as follows: “There is absohitely'Trothlng to be 'said J about our Mars observations from night to night, or about our observations of the whole year, even, until after the work has been gone over with care and a map made of our results, which will take until October next at least. All dr nearly all of the present exeitement over Mars is merely exaggeration and sham excitement, utterly useless to the people In general as it is harmful to true science. *

It is stated In a St. Paul dispatch that the Alliance wing, numbering approximately 2,0u0 votes, will join the Democrats. The Donnelly faction will make Its fight in the legislative districts.

Torturer SI re a tor. . The press generally characterizes the punishment of Private lams by Col. Streator. of the Pennsylvania militia, as entirely without the pale of even military discipline.—Duluth News. The young militiaman’s enthusiasm In a bad cause got the better of him, but shaving his head, hanging him by the thumbs until insensibility came to his relief, stripping him of hii? uniform and drumming him out of camp to the time of “The Rogue’s March" was carrying matters to as great an extreme as the clubbing of the defenseless Pinkertons and the shooting and stabbing of Mr. Friok.—Louisville Times. Private lams’ “fool speech,” coming from s soldier in the State’s service who had been summoned to duty for the express purpose of preventing murder and riot, was, as a matter of course, wholly indefensible. The man should have at once’ been put under guard, oharges should have been duly preferred against him, and his case should have awaited the decision of a properly constituted court-martial. The fact that such an utterance was publicly made offers no warrant whatever for the perpetration of an act of gross and despotic cruelty, alike unsoldierly and un-American.— Boston Globe.
