HARDwIcK Francis Y. Dumas was quite badly
bruised by being thrown from wagon on the
Goth. The accident was caused by tug unhtch-
ing, which let the thills drop Mr.. Dumas was
thrown down behind the horse and dragged sew
eral rods. The wagon struck the north end of
the bridge near Wakefield's shop when the horse
was stopped causing no further material damage
than breaking both thills. A little boy, Mr.. Du-

out but not injured to much extent. Mrs. Ed
wards, poisoned by the accidental use of tartar
emetic for Rochelle salts, noticed in our locals of
last week, still remains in very critical condi-
ton with but faint hopes of her recovery Her
husband, Mr. | V, Edwards, travelling in the
west selling millinery goods for a Chicago firm,
has been telegraphed and will probably reach
home to-day (Mondayl. Further inquiry regard
ing the origin Of the mistake at the drug store
shows that a mistake was made by the wholesale
druggist as the original package labeled Rochelle
salts actually contained tartar emetic. In this
way the poisonous drug was dealt out by clerk
of but little experience, and is doing Its deadly
work, perhaps to the ruin If not the destruction
of life. We think this sad event will cause
greater care in the future by our druggist in in
speeding and testing more carefully all goods re-
ceived that no similar mistakes may occur in

The discretion of the lawyers prevented
them from acting upon these preposterous
instructions, but it is curious fact that the
man who had thus shown unmistakable
tokens of an unbalanced mind should have
held the important office of secretary of war;
and discharged its duties efficiently, for more
than two years longer.

MEXICAN NEWS.
Particulars of the Killing of an
 AmerIcan Near FrOnteras.

From Mir Thomas Ewing, who came in from Arspe, Sonora, yesterday, 1t was learned that the officers from Fronteras brought to Arispe for triai, on the 18th instant, Mexican who had killed an American, name unknown, somewhere between Fronteras and the coal fields, some days previous. The account given of the affair by the prisoner was, that as he was going over A hill, having handkerchief around his head instead of hat upon it, he was mistaken, as he supposed, fer an Indian, and fired upon from the bush near where he was travelling. Seeing the man in ambush, he fired back and killed him. The effects of the de. ceased were taken with the prisoner to Arispe They consisted of duck coat, lined with gray blanketing; soft, white hat. with cord and tas. sells at the ends, the hat nearly new pair ot California made, hilf gauntlet buck gloves, of rather small size; pair of spring back spectacles Colts remodled revolver, A calliber, number 195,S25, the same being nearly uew, with an old scabbard that had been ripped and reserved, and cut open both sides SO that it could be reversed and worn upon either the right or left hip; one store quilt and two pair of brown or butternut- colored blankets well worn. From the size of ceased must have been small medium sized person, and from the spectacles he must have been either near-sighted or else middeleaged. From the fact that no person witnessed the kill ing 1t is impossible te state the cause that led to the deed other than the prisoners story. The au- thorities were giving the matter general over. hanling to arrive at the facts so far as in their

The Trial Of ssuiteau.

WASHINGTON, D. c. 22.-Guiteau came into court this morning apparently under some strong excitement. Col Charles Reed took seat by his side and whisper ed something to him Guiteau, striking the table violently, began to expostulate, say ing, "l wont do anything of the kind" At this point Scoville whispered some expos tulation, when Guiteau angrily said to hlm, "I won't have you compromising my case by your foolish questions You must get off my case if you can't stop cempromis- ing it." A whispered consultation be- tween the three mentioned seemed to re. suit in pacifying the prisoner who looked up with smile and said, "l was going to make a speech, but 1 have changed my mind an1 guess 1 won't do it." He then busied himself opening his mall, remark ing, This IS the first time l have ever openened my mail myself for SO me time"
 Dr. Theodore Diamond, of Auburn, who had been summoned for the defense and retained by the prosecution, was called to the stand. Witness believed, juding by the evidence he had listened to, including that of the prisoner himself, and from the appearance and conduct of the prisoner that he is q sane man. The hypothetical questions put to Dr. Wooster yesterday were then read to witness, and he replied "I should say he was sane."

Tatt,e from Tucson,

TUCsoN, Dec. 22.-T. J. Potter, general manager of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railroad, accompanied by Dr. J. J. Ransom, surgeon of the road, passed through here this evening on a special car bound for San Francisco. They have been at Denver, to which point their road is being built. Mir. Potter expressed him. self much pleased with the climate and general appearance of that portion of Ari- zona they had passed through. He was much surprised at finding the Southern Pacific route so free from dust, as It had been represented that this road was very dusty and consequently disagreeable for passenger travel He thinks this route much preferable in many respects to the Union aud Central Pacific, and believes the great majority of the travel from the Western States to the Pacific coa st will be via the Southern Pacific. Referring to the character of the road, he said it was well built and very smooth to ride over, The c. B. & o. company have about three thousand miles of road under its manage ment.
 News from Magdalena is to the effect that work has been resumed on the Guaymas road via the Magdalena route.
