His most recent trouble was on September 23. "That day a colored man came to see me and demanded some money, said Maguigan. "I refused to she him uny. He told me he would get even, and before the day was over 1 would know how he was to take revenge." "I thought nothing of the threat until that night when I went home to find my boy dead. His little sister found him hanging to the front door steps, a strap around his neck. "1 am sure the man who made the threats did the deed. He killed my boy to revenge himself upon me.

A dispatch from Flagstaff, Ariz., says a territory fifty miles square, extending from there to the grand canon of the Colorado, stands practically depopulated because of earthquake and rumblings, which, beginning Saturday, are steadily'increasins in magnitude and violence. Indians, of whom there were many in the region, fled when the quakes began, terrified by sinister imports which they imagined to be contained in the cracking of ground. The whites remained until their homes fell about them. J. B. Shaves, the first of the refugees to reach Flagstaff, reported that his house was cracked. Others who came in later reported that volcanic stones had been torn from beds and sent down the mountain sides. They refused to go back. The whole district is of volcanic origin. The phenomena is attributed to a slip 'n the earth. Fewer Deaths.
