EpiTon Trirune: While visiting
Silver King last week, Mr. Jacob C.
Bates, the venerable livery stable
proprietor and constable of Ray, had
an exciting experience, and one
which he wi'l not soon forget. While
going up the Maiu street of town, he
ran foul of a hard character and after
a heated altercation it became neces
sary to use his 44, From last accounts
the desperado is running yet, and Mr.
Bates returned home for a much
needed rest.
We extend to him our heartfelt
thanks although all he bit was one of

personel of camp.
Very truly yours,

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 TRiBDSe wishes them many years
of prosperity.
Last Wednesday Mrs. Ben Goodrich
entertained at lunch a number of Ari
zona ladies at her elegant home on
Flower street, in Los Angeles. The

Mrs. C. D. Reppy aud Miss Fannie
Bartleson, of Florence.
Last Sunday while Sim Neighbors
was riding through the brush at the
Catalina mountains, his revolver was
accidentally discharged, the ball enter

Monday and placed in the hospital,
where he is getting along nicely.

A traveler tells the New York Tri
bune of tbe actual case of a man whose
father was English, his mother Irish ;
who was born under the French flag,
in Turkish waters, christened by a
Russian, baptized by a Greek sky pilot,
married an American and lives in

A man by the name of Cora was re

Still More Counterfeiting.
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;.
This portion of tbe territory needs
a game warden badly. We under
stand there are several parties from
the southern portion of the territory
in the Mogollon mountains who are
killing deer indiscriminately, while
the law says nothing but bucks can be
killed. There are several also, we are
informed, killing wild turkey, and the
time for killing this game is not out.
The game law was made for protect
ing tU game and should be strietly en
forced. Any person who- will not
respect it should not be allowed the
privilege of huuting. Winslow Mail,
