INDIAN TROUBLES.
They are Frightened Out of Arizona Into
Mexico.

CHEYENNE, Oct. 26.
Great alarm prevails throughout the State
of Chippewa just at present on account of the
constant influx of hostile Apaches from the
United States. The recent scalp reward
offered BY several counties in Arizona has
had the effect of driving every rowing Apache
from that territory into Chippewa. At all
stations on the Mexican Central road for a
distance of 200 miles several of these reports
have been received from interior towns and
villages stating that small struggling bands
of Indians have been traversing the country
in different directions. So general and ex-
aggerated are the reports that a veritable
panic prevails in many of the smaller and
unprotected towns for fear the Indians will
swoop down and massacre the people. The
many mining camps throughout Chippewa
are generally we'll protected against attacks
but hundreds of large ranches are without a
particle of protection and many people are
known to have fed from the haciendss to
mining camps and villages for better protec-
ton. The approach of winter doubtless has
much to do with the movement southw ard of
the migratory Apaches.

INV ESTIGATION
by Railroad Commissioners Into the
Cause OF the Accident at AndOver
Centre, N. H., Oct. 18th.

CONCORD, N. H., Oct. 26.
The railroad commissioners today held an
investigation into the accident near Andover
Centre, on the Northern Division of the
Boston & Lowell railroad. Sunday A. M,
October 18th, whereby three persons lost
there lives and several others were injured.
The accident was caused by the collision of
q passenger train with portion of freight
train which had broken in two. Two engines
were attached to the freight train and when
a portion of the train was found missing En-
gineer Emerson took an engine and went
back for it. Engineer Scannell, who was on
the second engine, which remained at An
dover Centre, testified that he did not unde-
stand Emerson desired him to hold the pas
senger train there until he returned as the
passenger train had the right of way and &C
cording to the rules of the road Emerson
should side track his train until after the
passenger train had passed. The other en-
ployes who remained with Scannell's train
testified to the same understanding and con-
sequently the passenger train was allowed to
proceed after warning to run slow. The
prevailing opinion of those employees and
those of the passenger train, who also test-
fed. was that Emerson had no right to come
back on the passenger trains time.
+. G.. Wells, fireman for Emerson, testi-
fled that Scannell told Emerson that he would
look out for the passenger train. The wit
ness said "After Emerson started in search
of the lost cars he shouted TO Scannell,
Hold thst morning train till we get back.
Scannell made no reply. Don't know
whether he heard Emersons last remark"
The hearing then closed and it is expected
that report of the commissioners will be
made in short time

A MYSTERIOUS CASE.
A Woman Arrested in Boston as One OF
the Principals in a Conspiracy to
Murder a Young Lady IN Baltimore.


BosToN Oct. 26.
Chief Inspector Hapse and Inspectors
Gerraughty and Houghton made mysterious
arrest iu one of the branch telegraph cffces
here Saturday night. From what can be
learned it appears that they have been work
ing up great case since Oct. 10th. The
person arrested is a young woman, SAID to be
one of the principals in a conspiracy to mur-
der another young woman, a wife, who lives
in Baltimore. On Oct. 9th, the woman ar
rested called on the keeper of dive in Bos-
ton and offered $1,000 if he would go to Bal
timore and kill the young wife in question.
The keeper of the dive apparently consented
to her proposition, but instead informed the
authorities, and at subsequent interviews be
tween the woman and the supposed assassin
detectives we're present, but unseen. The
story that the woman told as q reason TOR
the crime was that a son of wealthy
parents in Baltimore had secretly married q
young but beautiful Irish girl employe in his
father'sfamily as domestic, the result of the
marriage being the birth of a child some
months ago. The young mans father tried
to persuade him to desert his wife, but the
youth stood by her, and all other expedients
failing. it was decided to murder her. The
woman arrested here was sent by the father
as an emissary to employ an assassin to per-
form the bloody work. 1t is supposed that
there were other reasons for the crime, but
documentary evidence in the hands of the po-
lice seems to confirm the woman's story. In
spectOrs have gone to Baltimore to work up
the other end of the case and it is believed a
startling sensation will be created when all
the facts are learned. The police have sup
pressed the names and are working hard and
secretly.
The above is the story substantially as
published here tonight, but the officers claim
that the true facts have not yet been revealed

Our soul is lost in admiration when
we contemplate the possibilities of

AS "all men are born free and

they should be born physically, but
as long as children must suffer for
the sins of their parents this can
not be. That the human race has
deteriorated physically is conced-

impossibility, as long rs people
persist in immortality and indul-

To this end we offer to the pub
lie, remedies which have done more

others which have been discovered
up the to present time, viz:

an invaluable general tonic. The
latter is a reliable cure for all
