A Horrible Occurrence.

The family Of a farmer named Doyle,
consisting of father, mother, an imbccilc
SON and three daughters, inhabiting in iSo,
lated house near Killarney, became insane
Sunday evening from the effects of eating
poisonous foods. During the night they
fought one another like wild beasts, tearing
their clothing and cutting their flesh horri
bly,. The son was found dead in the pigsty
next morning, his body nearly naked and
his face entirely eaten away by the pigs,
while the others were discovered in a semi.
nude state, still fighting in the house. They
were removed to an asylum, where they
were pronounced incurably insane. Tho
father, it is thought, will die from the
effects of his injuries.

 He remained in New Mexico and Arizona engaged in mining, hunting, and serving us govern ment scout and dispatch bearer, until the fall of 1856, when he was thrown from his horse near Cliff ton, since which time he has been an invalid. Many remember the dangerous ride he made on the trail of Geronimo when the savage left the reservation in May, 1885; how he succeeded ih passing the Indians and warning the citizens of Alma, N.

The Highway of Nations.

The broad Atlantic, is ever a stormy thor
 oughfare. Yet blow the winds ever so fierce ly, and ride the waves ever so loftily. seamen
 must man the good ships, tourists will brave the passage, and commercial travellers and
 buyers must visit the centres of foreign
 trade and manufacture. That atrocious
 malady, seasickness, together with colicky
 pans and much inward uneasiness is often endured when Hostetters Stomach Ritters would have fortified the voyagers against them. Sea captains, and in fact all old salts and veteran travellers are acquainted with the protective value of this estimable and remedy, and are rarely un- provided with 1t. Emigrants to the far west should use it as a safeguard against malaria. Seek the aid of the Bitters for dyspepsia, liver complaint, kidney troub- les, and all ailments that impair the har- monious and vigorous action of the vital powers.

Obituary.

"Wood" Dodd. brave man we'll known throughout Arizona and New Mexico, died at Algona, Iowa, on the 4th inst. Through Horace B. Stevens of Fl Paso we are enabled to furnish our readers with brief history of his event ful life.
 Henry Wood Dodd was born in Toledo, Ohio, in 1889. When 16 years of age he entered the bank of Toledo, as clerk, and remained there until the breaking out of the war. In 1861 he enlisted in the First Ohio Light Artillery. Almost immediately his daring spirit and consummate address recom mmended him for place in one of the most important bureaus of the public service. By order of Secretary Stanton he was de- tailed as scout in the secret ser vice, and rendered invaluable service until the close of the war. He secuted in this capacity for Burnside, Meade, Hooker and Grant, and amid many exciting adventures md hair-breadth es- capes always managed to avoid permanent capture. Once he was taken by Henry Gilmore, but by destroying his dispatches and playing deserter he succeeded in

John H. Hovey made a partial clean up from his steam arrastra last Monday. The arrastra has been running, actual time, about six days of 24 hours, during which 1t crushed nine tons of ore. The value of the clean up is estimated to be something over S400. When it is considered that at the most this amount is only about three quarters of the value of the rock, and that the first two or three tons of ore put through was of his lowest grade and none of his best, the result is most satisfactory and very encouraging to Mir. Hovey. who deserves all the success he is likely to receive. The object for which MT. Hovey is striving-to make the arrastra buy stamp mill-is one that causes all mining men in this district to watch the outcome with n great deal of in tsrest.

Duncan Dots.

There is veIy little of special interest transpiring Tn Duncan at present. Merchants and saloon men, however, report that busi- ness is pretty fair. There are in dications, too, that very large crops will be harvested; already alfalfa is being cut and in few weeks barley will begin to cone in. A great many of the farmers are setting out fruit trees, vines, etc, and in few fears no one need be surprised to find this a veritable garden spot.
 Miss Emma Paxton, one of the Giia belles, left for Ell Paso last week to visit Der sister, Mrs. w. K. Sawyer. She will probably re main month or six weeks.
 Mir. Walls, who used to live at the Coronado ranch, has returned to this country. He, wifi, aud Tom Levy and wife, were in Dun can several days ago to have an acknowledgement taken before the notary public. They have bonded their mine near Carlisle to c. P. Crawford.
 The ever genial A. H. Nichol of the cattle firm of Nichol and O., left this morning for Fl Paso. There he will meet his brother Frank and wife, who are on their way from Florida to California.
 James Parks is back from three weeks visit to Texas From hIs looks the trip evidently agreed with him.
 We take pleasure in chronicling the birth of a boy to Mir. and Mrs. bart w allace.
 The picnic and fish-fry given last week under the auspices of the ladies of Duncan and vicinity was most enjoyable affair. Quite large number of fish had been caught the day before, and added to that was the bountiful dinner provided by the ladies. A table was set which would have delight ed the heart of EEppiiccarns himself. Very few young men were in at tendance on account of the round up being in progress. This was source of regret and the young men who were debarred from par ticipating earnestly hope that the ladies will at some early date get up another one. Such affairs are always enjoyable and the ladies on the Gila have the faculty of always carrying to successful issue any entertainment planned.
 Mir. Owens brought in several gallons of fine strawberries the past week. He has large patch of them and will get quite sum of money from his sales. We trust the day is not far off when our farmers here will devote their attention to the cultivation of such things.
 Carlisle is booming. All men who go there can get work at once. Mir. Bailey of that place is now shipping some rich ore.
 Croquet IS not in the least on the wane in Duncan. From the proficiency attained by its devo- tees we think they might, without fear, challenge Prof. Jacobi him. self.
