Republican, At San Juan Hill. The Elton Empire tells a story of Roosevelt and a Rough Rider frmu Ari zona, who won a commission in the regular army, and is now serving in the Philippines. Here it. is: "During the storming of San Juan hill," said Governor Roosevelt, while remarking on the extreme heat, as he journeyed through Kansas, "I was re quested by one of my men to betake myself to the very hottest region, but when it comes a hot day I always con gratulate myself that I didn't go." "There was a young fellow from Ar izona, Bugby by name, who was shot straight across the top of the head. I happened to overtake him, and saw the way the blood was streaming down his face that he was in no con dition to stay in the front. Riding up by bis side I tapped him on the arm and said 'yon go to the rear.' "Well, I'll never forget the face that fellow turned toward me. It was one mass of blood, and this added horrible fierceness to the look be gave me. " 'You go to hell,' he said as he struck out on a run up the hill. "I could'nt forget such a fellow, and I got him a commission in the regular army. He's now inthe Philippines." Prospector. A few days ago while looking over the mining field in Aubrey district we had occasion to visit John Doyle's property, and he kindly initiated ns in the mystery of his blowpipe assay out fit, in the manipulation of which he is cansidered supreme past-master. His weights are of his own manufacture as are also his pulp sealas and button scales ; he makes his crucibles out of bone ash, which he prepares, and moulds them with the neck of a bottle for a mould and shapes them with the round, glass stopper of a perfume bot tle. His flux is the same as that used by other assay ers, but everything else; except the blowpipe, is original and all his own. The weights are made on the basis of a 2cent piece for a quar ter of an assay ton, and on gold and silver ores he claims he can come within few dollars Of the value of a too of ore. When water is plentiful in the district he runs a small cyanide plant and makes enough money thereby to keep development work going, in a small way, on his mine. Mohave Miner. Last Sunday Mary E. Harter and Stephen Bailey, both formerly of Flor ence, were united in marriage at the residence of Jacob Sutcr at Globe. The affair was very quiet, there being only a few intimate friends present.

The Secret Service has unearthed an other band of counterfeiters and secured a large quantity of bogus bills, which are so cleverly executed that the average person wonld never suspect them of being spurious. Things of great value are always selected by counterfeiters for imitation, notably the celebrated Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which has many imitators but no equals for indigestion, dyspepsia, constipation, nervousness aud general debility. The Bi tters sets things right in the stomach, and when the stomach is in good order it makes good blood and plenty of it. In this manner the Bitters get at the seat of strength and vitality, and restore vigor to the weak and debilitated. Beware of counter feits when buyinj;.
