Much Ado AboutlNothing.
Our neighbors of the Democrat were
slightly incorrect initheir statements in
reference to the trouble of Mr. Levy, the
"poor abused" drummer they prate so
lovingly about. The facts in the case,
as near as an Epitaph reporter could
ascertain from our worthy Chief of Po
lice, George Oakes, were as follows:
Mr. Levy having occasion to visit Bis
bee in the pursuit of his calling, and as a
natural consequence sought out the stage
man for accommodations. Mr. Brad-
shaw, the proprietor of that line, is known
far and wide as one of the very best men
in the camp, generous to a fault. The
name of Mr. Levy was placed upon the
way-bill of the Bisbee stage line, along
with two other strangers, but Mr. Levy
concluded he would hire a private con
veyance, which he had a perfect right to
do, but he did not only do that, but he
induced the other two passengers to
take passage with him, at half the stage
fare. This is not the action of a sensi
ble business man, so the three took pas
sage in a private conveyance, leaving the
baggage of the drummer to be bronght
by the stage line, and here's where the
trouble began. When Mr. Bradshaw
presented the bill for the transpoitation
of the baggage the worthy drummer reg
istered a protest against the price
charged, which Mr. Bradshaw assured
him was the regular charge, but he
would not be content, and some harsh
words passed between the two. Mr.
Bartholomew passing by, overheard the
loud talk, and asked the men to desist,
which was clearly the duty of Mr. Bar
tholomew, and had he done otherwise he
would have been unworthy of the po
sition he occupies. The men stopped
for a time, but shortly after came to
gether again and a quarrel was in pro
gress, when the same officer once more
interfered to protect the peace, and told
Mr. Levy ii he did not stop it he would
be obliged to lock him up. This is
what r-isedthe righteous cry from the
Di mocrat. Wc are satisfied that the
officer simply did his plain duty, and, as
to Mr. Bradshaw, the people of Tomb
stone with whom he has done business
fur the pa.i seven year, will testily to
his sterling honesty and probity of char
acter, and just where the abuse came in
the Epitaph fads to discover.

AEIZONA MINERALS.
Specimens Wanted for the American Ex
position In London
The mineral resources of Arizona as a
general thing are little known outside
jf bur own Territory, whilst it is univer
sally admitted that we have one of the
greatest mineral Territorys ia America,
yet circumstances in the past have been
such that we could not avail ourselves of
the magnificent gift which nature has
stored in our midst, besides the Tombs
tone district which is the best known
mining section of our Territory. There
are great mineral deposits in every coun
ty in Arizona. All that is needed at the
present time is a little infusion of the en
ergy and enterprise of older mining
regions, with this will come an influx of
capital which will result in placing our
Territory in the frant rank of mineral
producing countries.
NOW AN OPPORTUNITY
is offered our citizens who have the best
interests of our Territory at heart to give
her a lift in the proper direction. This
splendid opportunity may never again be
within their grasp. Professor A. E. Foote
of Philadelphia, whose splendid mineral
exhibit at New Orleans was the admira
tion of the world will now turn his atten
tion to the Mammoth American Exposi
tion, which will commence in London
May next. The Professor wiil undoubt
edly present to the admiring gaze of the
world at that exposition.
THE riNUSr DISPLAY OF MINFRALS
ever exhibited. If the mining men of
Arizona desire to have samples of our
wanderful mineral deposits exhibited at
that Exposition an opportunity is now
offered. Professor Foote returned last
evening fiom Bisbee with a large and a
well selected lot of specimens, which he
will use in his gieat mineral display at
London. There never was a better or a
more fitting time to exhibit our great min
eral worth- than the present. So we once
more suggest to our people the advisabil
ity of prompt and energetic action in this
matter liberal and judicious advertising
in the manner mentioned will add great
ly to our Territorial prosperity.

The Beginning Of The End
The beginning of disease is a slight
debility or disorder of some of the vital
organs, the stomach, the liver or the bow
els usually. There are despeptic sympt
oms, the livet is troublesome, the skin
grows tawney and unhealthy looking,
there are pains in the right side or
through the right shouldor blade. The
climax is often an utter prostration of the
physical energies, perhaps a fatal issue.
But if the difficulty is met in time with
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which is al
ways effective as a remedy, and it should
be resorted to at an early stage, there
will be no reason to apprehend those in
jurious subsequent effects upon the sys
tem often entailed by entirely cured dis
eases. Far better is it, also, to employ
this safe remedial agent in fever and ague
and other malarial complaints, than qui
nine and other potent drugs, which even
when they do prove effectual for a time,
ruin the stomach and impair the general
health,
The compliments of the season colds,
coughs, catarrhs- -may be effectively delt
with by taking Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
To neglect prompt treatment for these
ailments is to risk consumption, which
is said to causa one-sixth of the mortial
ty of all civilized countriies.
There is nothing equal to the Great
Acme Remedy to restore your nerves
after excessive drinking, and what is still
more creditable to the remedy, it will, if
used as directed, destroy the appetite for

Indigestion or Constipation.
A few HAMBURG FIGS are all that
is necessary for the cure of the severest
cases of indigestion or constipation and
one taken occasionally will prevent the
development of these affections 25 cents.
