.southern part of the county. At 10
o’clock he put up at Brown’s station,
to await dinner and avoid the heat
of the day. The sky all day was
cloudless, except a thunderstorm
which was observed travelling the
summits of the Santa Fatal inns,
and disappearing over the Uincons
in the northeast. Otherwise not a
cloud ora vapor of any kind was to
be seen. The sun was whining in
all his vigor, and as he passed to
the west his strength and glory
seemed undiminished.
At 3 o’clock .tudge Furguson re
sumed his journey towards Tucson.
He had come about five miles,
when his attention was attracted
by a roaring and crackling toward
the west, and looking up he saw a
river of water as big as the Manta
Cruz where it runs through War
ner’s mill race, and coming toward
him. Telling his driver to "halt,
they stopped on the top of a little
knoll, and watched the waters as
they plowed up the desert tearing
away brush and rocks. They had
evidently spent their force. After
the Hood had passed by, the face of
the country was disfigured, and a
large gutter had been cut across the
valley. The current came down off
a small range of low, rolling hills
to the west. Although the judge
and his companion strained their
eyes in the direction from which
the water came, not a cloud was to
be seen. After the water had sub
sided sufficiently to let them pass,
they went on. They had hardly gone
half a mile, when to their utter as
tonishment there was another
stream equally as large as the first
one. Again they peered towards
the west, as if in hopes to find some
indication of its source. Passing
on, their astonishment was doubled
to find another stream, and in this
manner five successive raging cur
rents were crossed.
But all their reserve was called
forth when, four miles from where
"they struck the first stream, they
■discovered a sixth one as large as
all the rest combined. Its angry
waters were waving and hissing as
if maddened by resistance they met
on the way from the hills to the
desert. This fiver was unfordable,
and to cross it was impossible. Mo
they halted on a knoll and watch
ed it for two or three hours, as it
boiled and sizzed, and cut a bed for
itself, in some places as deep as 15
feet, and over 100 yards wide. It
was not till after sundown that they
dared attempt a crossing.

A Lawsuit Emlwl after Twenty-six Years in Court.
Pittsburg Special, IStli.
In the Supreme Court to-day Jus
tice Paxson filed an opinion cover
ing f)5 pages of legal cap in the
famous case of Asa Packer against
Noble, Hammett & Co., which was
a bill in equity asking the court in
Carbon county, Pa., to decree an
account stated. The proceeding was
commenced more than 2(5 years ago.
Since that time all of the original
parties to the suit have died. Jus
tice Paxson says the expenses of the
case when it reached the Supreme
Court were over $1,000,000, and its
decision involves many millions
more. In 1850 Asa Packer, who
afterward became Judge and was a
Democratic candidate for Governor,
was a coal operator at Mauch Chunk
and engaged in the coal commission
business in Philadelphia. On April
1, of that year, he formed a copart
nership with Joseph Noble, Barna
bas Hammett, and Franklin Hall,
who were in the coal commission
business, and during the term of
the partnership lupl houses in Phil
adelphia, Boston and New York.
In 1852 Asa Packer opened negoti
ations with the parties controlling
the Lehigh Valley Railroad Com
pany, which then had neither capi
tal nor credit, and the negotiations
resulted in a contract with the com
pany by which he agreed to build
the road from Mauch Chunk to
Easton, Penn., including a bridge
over the Delaware river at Phillips-
burg, N. J., for the sum of $2,500,000,
of which $1,500,000 should be paid in
the capital stock of the company
and $1,000,000 in first mortgage
bonds. The road was estimated to
cost $1,000,000, and the bonds at 80
per cent, and the stock at 5!1C per
cent, of their par value would he
the equivalent of the supposed cost.
Mr. Packer offered his partners
one-fifth of the stock and bonds he
was to receive from the company,
and the same proportions of the
profits of the enterprise, if they
would furnish one-fifth of the cost
of constructing the road. They
hesitated about this, and on Febru
ary 1, 1853, when Mr. Backer’s offer
was presented in writing, did not
sign it. lie proceeded with the en
terprise alone,drawing various sums
of money, amounting to $150,000,
from the firm, which was charged
to his individual account. In 1855
his drafts were refused, and he de-
posited with the firm 1,800 shares of
Lehigh Valley stock and 100 bonds
valued at $1,000 each. The same
year Mr. Packer became financially
embarrassed, and he was practical
ly expelled from the firm in 1850.
He then commenced proceedings
in equity for an accounting. Ilis
railroad interest proved profitable,
were entitled to receive from him
over $12,000,000. In support of this
claim they produced the proposition
originally made by Mr. Packer; it
was duly signed and purported to
be a regular agreement. The sig
nature of Noble, Hammet & Co.,
however, was in a different kind of
ink from that of Mr. Packer, and
the Master, after taking testimony
that makes twelve large printed
volumes, decided against their
claims. The court of Carbon coun
ty affirmed the Master’s decision.
The heirs of Noble, Hammet &■
Co. appealed to the Supreme Court.
Justice Paxson affirms the decision
of the Master and the lower court,
and orders the applicants to pay
the costs. His theory of the case,
which ho says is one of the most
remarkable on record is that Noble
and Hammet signed Mr. Packer’s
proposition without his knowledge
and never notified him of their ac
ceptance of it. Their object in this
was doubtless to protect themselves
against loss if the railroad enter
prise should be a failure and at the
same time be in a position to de
mand a share of whatever profits
might accrue. The court is satisfi
ed that, if Mr. Packer had not ex
tricated himself from his financial
difficulties and become immensely
wealthy, tin* alleged agreement
would never have seen the light of
day.

the .‘Id Pennsylvania Heavy Artil
lery, which was stationed at For
tress Monroe when Jeff. Davis was
taken there, soon after his capture.
Mr. Kisner was detailed, among
others, to stand guard over the
rebel chief. In an interview with
Mr. Kisner the other evening, he
gave an interesting account of what
occurred during this period of
nearly a year,

Atlanta Constitution.
Just prior to the last term of
DeKalb count a libel for divorce
was filed by Toccoa M. Hill against
Samuel IT. Hill, in which she prayed
for a total divorce from the said
Samuel II. Hill, upon the ground of
continued and willful desertion, and
she also prays that she shall be
allowed to resume her maiden name.
An order was taken by Gen. L. J.
Gartrell, her attorney, to perfect
service by publication, and the
matter will come up for a first ver
dict at the next term of the court.
It needs hardly to be recalled
that Toccoa S. Hill is the wife of
Sam. Hill, who murdered John Sim
mons in the city some years ago for
illicit relations with his (Hill’s)
wife. Ilill was convicted of murder
and sentenced to the penitentiary
for life. Before the sentence was
executed to the extent of his de
livery to the penitentiary authori
ties, he was adjudged insane, con
fined in the asylum at Milledge-
villo, and shortly after escaped
therefrom. Since that time he has
been heard from at random times
from various points in Mexico,
Texas and Kansas. No efforts to
recapture him have ever been made
by the Georgia authorities, nor are
there likely to be any so long as he
keeps out of the borders of the
State.
A friend of Hill’s sent him a copy
of the Constitution with the notice
of the divorce suit instituted by his
wife, and has received, in reply, a
letter in which Sam swears in most
emphatic terms that he will em
ploy lawyers and resist the suit to
the last extremity. Ho gives no
reason for it except that he does not
want his wife released and given
an opportunity to contract another
marriage, lie never expects to see
her again, or to live with her, hut
he expresses the belief that she
ought to suffer as well as that he
should for the crimes which brought
them into their present positions.
A prominent lawyer of the city
informed the Constitution reporter
yesterday that the court would
hardly permit a decree of divorce
to Mrs. Hill upon her petition. She
does not base her prayer upon the
fact that Sain Ilill is a convicted
felon, hut upon the ground that he
lias willfully deserted her for three
years. The proof will show that he
has not deserted her wilfully, and
that his absence is not of the nature
intended by the law as a ground for
divorce. Hence, a jury will hardly
be complacent enough to give her a
verdict upon her present petition.
One of the singular phases of this
Sam Hill matter is found in the
periodical receipt at the post-office
here of letters addressed in Sam’s
handwriting to “Efflo Etheridge,”
which is the fictitious named used
by his wife in her bawby house
escapades, and which figured so ex
tensively in the testimony upon
Ham’s trial for murder. These let
ters are post-marked from various
places in the West and held here,
H. C. Mr. Logan and his wife were
at their home on Friday evening,
when an unknown negro called
and asked. Mr. Logan to change $5
for him, which the latter declined
to do. The negro then remarked in
cidentally that as he came
along he saw a cow in Mr. Logan’s
corn field, and turning to Mrs. Lo
gan, volunteered to run the cow
out if she would help him. Mrs.
Logan told him she would letdown
the fence for him to drive out
the cow.
They walked away from the
bouse together, and it is supposed
that as soon as they were out of
sight and bearing, the negro club
bed Mrs. Logan to death. After
they had been gone a few minutes,
Mr. Logan stepped out of the house
to go where they were, and met the
negro returning alone. The old
man asked for his wife, and was
told, “she got scared and ran off
down the lane.” About this time
Mr. Logan thought he heard groans
evidently coming from tiie direc
tion in which the negro and his
wife had gone, and started to run
towards the sound, when his throat
was clutched by a pair of muscular
hands, and he was choked until he
was still and unconscious. The
murderer taking it for granted that
Mr. Logan was dead, dragged him
aside and covered him with a lot
of cotton. This done, he went into
the house, and after turning over
things, found $10, which he pocket
ed and lied.
Mr. Logan does not know how
long he remained unconscious un
der the pile of cotton, but it could
not have been more than 15 min
utes. Unable then to find his wife,
in a dazed and stupefied condition,
he hurried as fast as his feeble
strength would permit, to a neigh
boring house, where he related the
story. A party accompanied him
back home. The house was found
open, but no signs of life about it.—
They hunted everywhere for some
signs of Mrs. Logan, but in vain
until they tore down a pile of burn
ing cotton in the field which the
negro spoke of, when they drew
forth the body of Mrs. Logan, her
head being terribly mutilated from
the burning fire.

A I'uilll) Tiling In on.
The early days of oil production
were attended by many curious in
cidents, says a veteran operator on
the Bradford, Fa., Exchange, One
of the queerest was a streak of luck
a well owner struck on the creek in
1883. He had drilled the well down
to the third sand, but found nothing
but water, and three day’s pump
ing failed to bring anything else to
the surface, so he abandoned the well
in disgust. The next day a neighbor
of his, who was operating on an
adjoining lease, came over to see
the disgusted well, owner, and in
formed him with much excitement,
that since the pumping Intel ceased
at his well great trouble had been
experienced at the other well, which
had yielded thirty barrels of oil a
day as long ns the water was being
pumped, but upon the stopping of
the water pumping had filled up
with water, and produced no more
oil. The result was that the man
who owned the producing well
hired the less fortunate operator to
keep his pump going, for which he
paid him $40 a week. The produc
ing well was then restored to
its former condition, and things
worked satisfactorily for six-
months, when suddenly one day the
well that had been yielding nothing
but water began suddenly pump
ing oil, and the one that had yield
ed oil in turn became a water well.
The changed situation resulted in a
lawsuit which was won by the man
who owned the well that had at
first yielded nothing hut water.

Oran Cobb, n little* orphan girl
only 13 years of ago, lives with Mrs.
Jane Phelps, a widow lady, on the
other side of the river, just north of
the Columbus and Western railroad
track, and works for a livelihood in
the Eagle and Phenix mill No. 2.
Yesterday was pay day, and she
drew $4.20 as her earnings for two
weeks. While en route home, and
just as she was crossing the branch
near the railroad track, she was at
tacked by two men who told her if
she screamed they would kill her.—
They robbed her of tho $4.20 and
then took her to the river, tied a
handkerchief over her eyes and
threw her in just below the railroad
bridge and left her, no doubt think

An Olil Murder Itcvlvcd.
The Atlanta Constitution of tho
2‘Jtli, says: George Hughes, a white
man, was arrested at Norcross on
the 18th, charged with committing
a murder near Abbeville, 8. C., on
Christmas, 1871). The case is one
full of tragic and romantic history,
and the facts handled by one of
Retulie’s reporters could be woven
into a first class dime novel.
Previous to the date of the mur
der, there lived near Abbeville an
old man named Mosely. He was
quite wealthy, and was a widower.
In 1878 lie married a young girl.—
Not long after his wedding, old man
Mosely ascertained that his bride
loved liis wealth more than she did
him. The result was quarrels with
out number. In December, 1S7!>.
Mosely and his young wife, who
was really quite a child, had the
last quarrel. During its progress
lie informed her that be was going
to make his will, and that she
should not be named in it. Tito
next day after the quarrel Mosely
went to Abbeville and had a law
yer to draw up ids will, promising
to sign it the next time lie came to
t >wn.
That night when lie reached
homo lie told his wife what lie had
done. The next day lie stayed at
home. That night about !) o’clock
some one called him to tho door
and shot him dead. The murder
created a great deal of excitement,
and the excitement was increased
by the great mystery. Mrs. Mosely
diverted suspicion, if there was any
pointing towards her, by offering a
big reward for tho murderers, but
it did not lead to them. The will,
not being completed, the widow re
ceived the lion’s share of the estate,
and all went smoothly until a few
weeks ago, when she made a state
ment in court during the winding
up of the estato which aroused sus
picion. The case was worked, and
two men arrested and Jailed in Ab
beville. One of them gave the offi
cers a pointer in tin* case by which
Hughes was located in Georgia.

Bagby, who yesterday took Him in.
It now develops that the widow
