8 'OTIS JJilZONA liEPUBIilCAir, TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 7, 1905 BUSTLING CAVE CREEK In the Height of the Sheep Shearing Season. Cave Creek, Feb. 1. (Special Cor respondence of The Republican.) Machine shearing: of sheep in twenty six stalls, started here on the 20th and excepting two bands sheared by blades just before that date the machine shearers have been at work on the 4500 or more head of Campbell and Francis. Yesterday Campbell and Francis withdrew the half of their bands, until the middle cf February, and until then, work will be on the bands of other sheep owners. "W. H. Campbell's 2700 are now being sheared, and then come those of Colin Camp bell. The firm of C. & F., the other Campbells, Schusters, Candelarias, and Gonzales of St. Johns, and John Noble, the largest and wealthiest sheep man, all shear at this place. Spring opening so early, and the plentlfullness of feed dispose the sheep men more to the machine than heretofore. But so many bands are booked, that Houck has had to arrange for blade shearing to begin this week, this time not under his personal supervision but of Ortega & Garcia. In addition to the overwhelming cares of his affairs. Mr. Houck has to contend with anxieties concerning Mrs. Houck, who is at San Francisco under going treatment for cancerous tumors. Mrs. Houck is a little woman, but one of her active, beneficent energy leaves a tremendous void here; In her neigh borly social ways she is as intrusive as Black mountain and her absence no less than that of the other changes thel condition of the landscape. That her case might terminate fatally, we can not consider with composure or re signation. However, her physician, a noted specialist in such cases, assures her that she did not delay too long in seeking medical aid, and that her HEAD SOLID SORE Awful Suffering of Baby Sleepless Nights of Mother. and CURED BY CUTICURA Skin Fair as a Lily with no Scar to Recall Awful Sore Writes Mother. I herewith write out in full the be ginning and end of that terrible disease eczema says Mrs. Wm. Ryer, Elk River, Minn., "which caused my babe untold suffering and myself many sleepless nights. My babe was born seemingly a fair, healthy child, but when she was three weeks old a swell, ing appeared on the back of her head, and in course of time broke. It did not heal but grew worse, and the sore spread from the size of a dime to that of a dollar. I used all kinds of reme dies that I could think of, but nothing seemed to help; in fact, it grew worse. Her hair fell out where the sore was, and I feared it would never grow again. It continued until my aged father came on a visit, and when he saw the baby he told me to get Cuticura Soap and. Ointment right away. ' " To please him I did so, and to my surprise by their use the sore began to heal over, the hair grew over it, and to-day she has a nice head of hair, her skin is as fair as a lily, and she has no scar left to recall that awful sore, and it is over eight months and no sign of its returning." CURE PERMANENT t "Your letter of the 19th inst. re ceived, asking in regard to the cure of my baby some six years ago. Well, the disease has never returned to her head which at that time was a solid sore on top and down the back." Mrs. Wm. Ryer, Elk River, Minn. Feb. 25, 1903. RoM throoshout the world.

I was laid up in bed for six months, and the doctors I had did me no good. They changed med icines every week and nothing they pre scribed seemed to help me. Finally I be gan the use of S. S. S. My knee and elbow joints were swollen terribly, and at one time my joints were so swollen and pain ful that I could not close them when opened. I was so bad that I could not move knee or foot. I was.getting discour aged, you may be sure, when I began S. S. S., but as I saw it was helping me I contin ued it, and to-day I am a sound well man and have never had a return of the disease. S. S. S. purified my blood and cured me of this severe case of Rheumatism after everything else had failed. I have rec commended it to others with good re sults. R. If. Chapman. 1355 Mt.

S. S. S. goes directly into the circulation and at tacks the disease itself. It purifies and re stores the blood to a healthy, vigorous condition.

This warm spring sun so early breaking through and dissipating the clouds that deluged this region, is causing a rapid and enormous growth of vegetation. The buds on fruit trees are swelling; the leaves coming out, and the whole landscape beginning to green. Cattlemen coming down from the head of this creek, and from re gions farther north, say that the pros pect for feed on the ranges was never better than now. Walter Harrington, who with Billy Ferris, has cattle rang ing around the old Alkire ranch on Camp Creek, has no complaints to make. A gramophone loaded with the sounds comins from a sheep bivoac awakening in early morning, would be an interesting thing. One sees at 4:30 in the morning the boss herder and cook stirring the fire Into leaping flames and then Sheppy's staccato barking breaks in on the silence; for the sheep are raising up one by one, and the goats on the outside preparing to lead the herd out too early. Often there is a profane inflection in Sheppy's bark. Then follow calls in musical Spanish, and whistling and verbal ex pletives as intelligible in one language as In any other. At last in the grow ing dawn, one hears the cry "O-oo-l-o-h-h!" when Sheppy stops barking, and a goat breaks from the huddle followed by the sheep in many diverging lines. The laden burros are seen always in the midst of the herd, browsing with them, and if the band Is a large one, the boss herder is mounted on a mule, riding here and there and continually calling to the herders far and near. While sheep herding may not Involve such strenuous work as that of the cowboy's rodeo, it is about as restless. But camp being made early in the evening one will see Jose at the camp fire writing to his Querlda or to par ientes back In Xew Mexico or Chihua hua or Sonora, if not to the Basque provinces of Spain. There Is now in this postoifice a big lot of letters ad dressed '"Senor Don" to about a dozen different Spanish names, but with an infinite variety of given names com posed of adjective terms converted in to proper names or nouns. All of these will be called for before the herds start north again in April. Nearly all of these Mexican herders are of the quiet, sober class, who if they drink at all. mellow up only to the sensational stage. Sheep men dare not take chances on malos hombres who might linger about a station like this to neglect their camps or herds. Houck's bar keepers keep tab on herd ers of that sort and shut off on them. At least 300 inches of water now runs in the creek nearly to Wlnnefred valley, and w!!! run until April. The drone of sheep herds leaving the crek bed at twilight, is soon succeeded by the roaring of bully boy, who, having attained to his majority of two years old, leads in his cavalcade of cows and calves and admiring steers. Whenever you hear bully boy roaring his chal leng to all of hi3 sort, and cows and steers uttering their brutal bellowing of fresh blood, then we know that hunger and thirst harrass them no more. The cattle I see coming into wa ter are yet in fine condition. There has been no mine work worth the mention since New Years. The mountain roads of the Mormon Girl ripped into rags by the recent storms, are yet in process of repair; hence the mill is shut down. It is lament able that nothing is doing on the Ben Hur; that John and Xerl Osborn don't get their rich cows backed into a cor ner with horns and tails tied so that ceasing to toss and sling at imaginary flies of trouble, they might milk 'em for the Lord's sake and get back to the Ben Hur. That enormously rich ore body is yet sassing passrsby, thus endeavoring to attract due attention. Did I ever tell you how John came to notice it? One day just four years ago, as John was climbing over the big red dike he heard this coming from it, "Como estamos, you black republican." "You call me a republican," exclaim ed John. "If there's a democrat on earth I'm one. Take that!" and John hit that dike with the pole of his pick and. lo, the chips glowed with copper sulphurets. Ever since some Phoe nicians incorporated it, that dike like a smiling pleading baby, has reached dimpled arms to them begging to be taken up K. W.

China's resources of coal and iron are among the largest and most favor ably situated in the world. The extent of the great coal fields has been put at 4i0,0oo square miles twice the area of France, and more than seventy times the aggregate extent of all the coal fields of Britain. Of the quality of the deposits much has yet to be learned. but the dstinguished German geologist Baron von Bichtofen, reported many years ago that both the anthracite and the bituminous varieties were equal to the best produced in Europe. It is ex pected that very soon Chinese coal will be delivered at far eastern ports at prices with which no other coal can possibly compete, and that China, in consequence of this development, will become a large exporter of iron.

Funeral services for Mrs. Eliza Koe Shannon, mother of Mrs. C. W. Good man, held at tH e residence of Superin tendent Qoodmi .11 at the United States Indian school o.n the afternoon of the 4th instant, were conducted by Rev. Dr. Lewis IlaJsey of the Baptist church, assisted by Rev. Dr. Lapsley '.. McAfee or the Presbyterian church, who offered prayer. Many sympathiz ing friond: were present, and the ser vices were deeply impressive. The male quartette of the Indian school sang "Sweet Hour of Prayer" and Beautiful Isle." At the close of the service the Indian school band played 'Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Al mighty'" and "How Firm a Founda tion." The address, by Dr. Halsey, was in part as follows, from the text: "And now. Lord, what wait I for? My hope is in thee." We meet, .today, not to mourn, but to lejoice, to celebrate the coronation day of one wLoni the Lord has taken to be with him and to share his glory. Daniel wrote many of his psalms when ie was in trouble, when he saw; that uen were as siiadows pursuing shad ows', that wealth was nothing, that the only wisdom wa s to look away from the emptiness of all things earthly to the eternal fulnesi'. Mrs. Shannon was converted in youih and served her Master for more than half a century. She was a daughter of the Rev. Char es Hill Roe, the son of an Episcopal minister. Mr. Roe was pastor, evan gelist, and, later, secretary, of the Baptist Home Mission society of Eng land. Thousands of men and women were converted under his preaching. He came to America in 1S31. and for fourteen years was pastor of the Bap tist church in Belvidere, 111. He was chaplain during the civil war, and later was superintendent of educa tional work among the f.-eedmen. He was one of the founders" of Chicago! university. It was said of him that he united the enthusiasm of Paul with the gentleness of John. Mrs. Shannon's mother was a daugh ter of Rev. Dr. "William JStx-adr.ian, first president of the Theological seminary at Bradford, England, and a personal friend of William Carey. Her motto was, "Self denial is the Christian's greatest privilege." One of Mrs. Shannon's sisfcers was the wife of Rev. John S. Beecher, a co-worker of Judson in Biirmah. An other sister is the wife of Rev. Dr. H. C. Mabie of Boston, secretary of the American Baptist Missionary union. During the last ten years Mrs. Shan non liad been a member of the Ruggles Street Baptist church in Boston, of which Rev. Dr. A. C Dixon Is pastor. Hers was a well rounded, glorious, tri umphant Christian life. She lived to cheer, to strengthen, to comfort, to ighten the burdens and brighten the hearts of all about her. All loved her, for all knew that she loved them. Especially touching was the sym pathy of the attendants and students of the Indian school, which strength ened and cheered her soul as she drew near the end of her life- journey. She loved the Bible, prayer, the ser vices of the church, anil especially the Christian piety and the hymns of faith and hope. We are told that her moth er committed to memory a book of Dr. Watts' hymns, and it was the custom oC her father's family to spend a part of each Sunday in cominitting hymns to memory. Her humility : was as j great as her faith. She trusted and felt Where in the World are You Going ? ... THE SUNSHINE ROUTE ...

She was a brilliant conver sationalist and an able writer, one of her works being the memoirs' of her honored father, the Rev. Charles Hill Roe. She could say, with the full as surance of faith: "And now. Lord, what wait I for? My hope is in thee." Humbly trusting, Joyously waiting, without. a shadow of doubt or fear, she welcomed the coming of her Lord. She had left farewell messages to those dearest to her and to all who minis tered' to her, and as speech beoamo more di.'licult, she said, "Give them all my dear love." Near the time of her departure she recalled and repeated the beautiful words of Mrs. Browning, In the theme, "He glveth his beloved sleep." The last two stanzas are: "For me,, my heart that erst did go Most like a tired child at a show That sees through tears the mummers leap, AVould now its wearied vision close. Would childlike on his love repose Who iveth his beloved sleep. And friends, dear friends, when it shall be That this low breath is gone from me, And round my bier ye come to weep, Let one most loving of you all, Srty, 'Not a tear must o'er her fall! Ule glveth Ms beloved sleep.'" o MERCHANTS INTERESTED The Carnival Agents Will Bill the Country Towns. Agent Davis of the Southern Carnival company, accompanied by a staff of bill posters, will leave for Tempe. Mesa and Florence tomorrow to bill that part of the country for the big mid winter carnival which takes place here next Monday, Feb. 13. It is his inten tion to bring in as many people from the surrounding towns as possible and to further his elTorts he has secured excursion rates on both the railroads running into Phoenix. Merchants in general are becoming interested in the celebration as they appreciate the fact that the country folks naturally feel jubilant over the recent rhins and w:ll come in to see the carnival. Therefore, it will be the means of bringing busi ness to the merchants of this city. Mr. Davis says: "Let this midwinter event be one long to be remembered bv ev eryone." CORONATION OF NAPOLEON. I had a most excellent view of the whole, says an old Chronicle. The pope came by exactly at 9 o'clock as was announced. I saw his holiness very plain. A priest carrying a cross and seated on a mule made much fun for the Parisians. The poor fellow, vho preceded the pope was hatless, in the most bitter cold that could be conceived; it was so intense that some of the soldiers actually dropped down in fits, havng been exposed to the air from three In the morning without any refreshment. The emperor was not so punctual; he did not come forward till past 11 o'clock; his carriage was superb In the highest degree; eight cream colored horses, decorated in a new style of elegance, excited the ad miration of all the spectator.. Thos horses, I understand, were taken from the stud belonging formerly to the king of England at Hanover. From the arrival of the pope to that of the emperor, a space of two hours, there was a continued succession of troops; the cavalry all galloped. Some regi ment of cuirassiers, or men in half armor, had a beautiful effect, and a 3 J t There's nothing that will give such speedy relief and cure and at the same time strengthen the side and restore energy as an Allcoch's Porous Plaster.

As the plants which are combined with the figs in the manu facture of Syrup of Figs are known to physicians to act most beneficially upon the system, the remedy has met with their general approval as a family laxative, a fact well worth con sidering in making purchases. It is because of the fact that SYROF OF FAGS is a remedy of known quality and excellence, and approved by physicians that has led to its use by so many millions of well informed people, who would not use any remedy cf uncertain quality or inferior reputation.
