 A Yaqui Indian named Jose Pajaro was found mortally wounded early Monday morning, near the Brady road ', west of town. He was removed to town and Dr. Harvey found that he had been shot through the body just i below the heart, the bullet lodging in 1 the muscles of the back from whence ! it was cut out by the doctor The man could not tell who shot him; he had been to baile and was returning to his home about two o'clock in the morning, when he was fired upon by some one he could not see. He died during Monday night and the coroner's l jury brought in a verdict of death from ! gunshot wounds inflicted by some per son unknown. Tom Mitchell, colored, was arrested on suspicion, Monday, but no evidence was developed at the inquest duplicating him and he was discharged from custody.

 All the ice used in Florence comes from Tucson, and the supply is en- tirely inadequate to the demand. An ice factory at this place could drive 8 profitable business and, with the price fixed to at reasonable figure nearly every family would use it.

A Great Invention.

The Burlington road is preparing to introduce new wrinkle into its stock ear that will be of great value to the country and great comfort to the horned and hoofed passengers that migrate in such great numbers over this route They have invented an arrangement for watering and feeding the stock without removing them from the cars. An open funnel -protrudes from the roof of each stock car, con nected by iron pipes, so that at wat CT tank the hose turns a stream direct ly in the canvas troughs elevated about three feet from the floor and running along the sides of the car. When not in use the troughs are folded by an iron rod against the side of the car and are out of the way. A similar arrangement is opened when the hay station Is reached, canvas rack into which hay is put, and after the cattle have eaten, the rack is either folded along the side of the car or turned up against the roof out of the way.-Ex.

He was using the trip hammer upon bar of iron when a red hot silver struck him and entered his body just below the heart.

Terrified Forests.

This deposit is situated about twenty-five miles southeast of Holbrook in Apache county. The silicified trees are found protruding from the volcanic ash and lava, which is covered with sandstone to the depth of twenty or thirty feet In gulches where the water has worn away the sandstone they lie exposed.
 Pctrified wood abounds in sections where precious minerals are found, but so far as explored this one locality only, affords silicified material in it's innumerable combinations of color. Sections of this fallen forest, whose only rivals are the giants of the Yo- semitic and Calaveras, lie around in pro fusion, measuring from two to ten feet in diameter, containing all the colors oi the rainbow, some of whose hearts are solid crystals of amethyst and topaz and only a slight degree from the diamond in hardness.
 The park has yielded many splendid specimens over which lapidists have gone wild, but MT. Adams has in hi; possession the most curious bit that has ever been discovered anywhere It is a small, oblong section of chalce dony in which the faces of President Cleveland and Gen. Logan, and the ful figure of nude female with her hai banged in modern style, appear wreathed in a marvellous fern-lik, tracery of dentrite, the effect bein! beautiful in color and unparalleled il the delicacy and lifelikeness of its sin gular, qortraiture. The ferns are harmonious blending of the dentrite il yellows, reds, blues, greens, purples etc, varying in shade according t the light, and the faces and figures ar formed by their arrangement like tn figures in puzzle picture.-Chicag Mail

How to Eat a Watermelon.

A watermelon, even though it be a 60-pounder, is not intended to be de- voured in public, nor is one water melon, no matter what it's weight may be, more than enough for one healthy person. This fact is probably well known to every country school boy. The art of eating Q watermelon and keeping cool is as simple now as it was in the days of long ago. The rind should be slit with a short-bladed knife, so that when the melon is di- vided the heart of 1t shall rest in one of the halves in one luscious, juicy jump. The knife should then be care fully wiped and then put in the peck ct. Then the coat should be taken of and the sleeves rolled up. Plunge the right hand under one end of the heart and the left hand under the other lift the dripping mass to the mouth and fall to. The juice will trickle down your arms and saturate your face, but what of it?. There is plenty and tC spare, though the feast is the rarest tc be found on earth.-Atlanta Consti tuition.

Home rule in the territories is now before Congress. The committee that has the bill in charge reports in favor of Delegate Carey's resolution that all officers of territories appointed by the President shall be selected from bona fide residents of the territory. This bill will now go from the committee to Congress, and will now doubt receive an almost unanimous vote, as the na- tional conventions of both parties have by resolution or platform endorsed the principle, and now on the eve of the national election they cannot, even if they felt so disposed, go back on the record ofsthe party expressed in na- tional convention. It does look as though the people of the territories will have cause to hold big jubilee Star.

Maricopa county, which is centrally located and embracing within it's boundless limits, the largest and most magnificent body of fruit and grain lands on this continent, and located in the geographical center of this in comparable valley is the queenly city of Phenix, with its broad wide streets splendidly shaded and it's imposing structures, fashionable as they are, after the latest and most improved styles of architecture, a suitable capi- tai city for this grand valley, and it looks as though united demand would be made this coming fall for the removal of the territorial capital to this city. The phenomenal growth, prosperity and promise of this valley is now extending far into the blizzard districts of the east, and each year will add to the efforts of our people to make known the splendid opportuni- ties of this valley of the Salt river Gazette.

FUNDAMENTAL IGNORANCE.

The Fort Worth GAzATrE would like to know
what the Chicago liner Ocean thinks OF Sen.
Ator 9regg's bill to reduce the state tax from
25 cents to l71s GENTS on tho $780, adding that
Texas Is largely Democratic and that II ID
pretty good government which lessons the bur
dens Of the people. The Express has no means
OF moving what the Inter Ocean thinks. For
It's own part. however, It considers Senator
Greggs bal tao rankest sort Of nonsense, dis.
PLAYING moreover q singular lack OF knowledge
Of Texas organic law The constitution forbids
any county ieyying tax greater than one half
the state rate. The Gregg bill would thus
reduce Them to So cents on the 500
valuation. They could not possibly get
along on it. Many Of them are heav-
lily in debt now and, under the de-
crease I revenue, ia two years time all OF them
would be. The Express understands that SEN
At r Gregg would like to go to Congress. 1t
has no objection. Il would Just as soon see him
there as Howd'ye Martin. But before he starts
to Washington 1t would like to hear of his
reading up bit.-Issn Antonio Express.
Section OF article of the new consti-
tuition reads as follows:
The state tax on property, exclusive Of the
tax necessary to pay the public debt, and OF the
taxes provided for The benefit Of public free
schools, shall never exceed IS cents on the 500
valuation and no county, city or town shall
levy more than Is cents for city or county pur-
poses.
Article section 9 Of the constitution
as FIRST adopted prohibited any county
or municipal levy for general purposes
greater than one-half the state tax, but
that section was amended by vote of
the people and now stands IS mentioned
above. Is it possible that this amend
ment could have been adopted without
the knowledge of the Expressp Be that
as 1t may, our esteemed contemporary
has been guilty Of severely criticising 3
public man upon subject of which 1t
was entirely ignorant and in manner to

HEED THE EARNINGS.
An Austin special OF late date contains
this bit of news:

An Austin special OF late date contains
this bit of news:
A gentleman from Milan county says politl-
cal matters there were ne er before SO mixed
and confused. There is q chance of Demo
cratic split, between Democrats who favor and
those who oppose prohibition. While these
factions are warming up, the Union Labor agi-
ia .ors are at work and the Republicans are
watching to take advantage Of the OLSEN sions
of their adyersaries.
THE GAZETTE spoke of the above as
"news," and it is, to some people. But
there are many who will not bs surprised
to read it. The situation in Milan coun-
tY is not exceptional or isolate', by
any means. In number OF Texas
counties the same state OF AZ
fairs either exists or is threatened. And
what is significant and important IL the
additional fact that 1t is in the strong
Democratic counties OF Central and
Northern Texas, the sections to which the
party must look for its maj orities in the
November election, that this state of IN
rest, these dissensions are found. 1t all
grows out Of the tendency Of impractics-
bles to insist upon reopening and reviy-
81 of the issue that was fought to finish
last August and settled. More than once
THE GAZETTE has warned these imprscti
cables that persistence in their tactics
cannot have other than an unfortunate re-
suit. The enemies OF the Democracy are
watchful and see the opportunities that
may be open to them. The Republi-
cans will be organized and vote to
a man in November, The farmers and
lsboring men are being led into the Union
Labor clubs. OF course all the opposi-
ton cannot affect the success of the
Democratic state ticket, but in local and
district elections and perhaps in sewers
Congressional districts the Democrats
will need sill the strength they can muster
to hold their own. II spirit of antago-
nism and contention is permitted to grow
up and develop in the Democratic ranks,
there will be disaster in many sections
for the Democracy. And If this dead is
sue Of prohibition is dragged out Of its
grave where the people laid 1t LAST Au-
gust, there can be nothing but strife and
bitterness in the Democratic camp. The
"hear. of oak" threats are simply fire.
brands, that cannot do the party any
good. Any Democrat ought to be able to
see that the Democracy cannot afford to
waste its energies in internal wranglings.
It will need all its resources, all its pa-
triotism, ell its conservatism to steer it
through the campaign of this year.
