A man named Samuel Smith died suddenly at the canal camp this side of Casa Grande last Tuesday. He recently came over from the Salt river and was suffering from the effects of a weeks spree at Tempe. He had worked but . day or two and almost imme- diately after partaking of a copious draught of whisky some person had brought in from Casa Grande, he ex- pired. Out of respect to the influence of Boss Alcohol his death was ascribed to the excessive heat, which cannot resent the cslumny.-Florence Enter prise

We take the following, which rur- ports 10 be the cause Oi the strike Of the train-men Of tue Atlartic and Paci- fic road now going on at Winslow. The Citizen says: The strike at Winslow is still on, with no apparent chance of all amicable settlement. The stI ikers Ioite. around the depot. but appear to be op- posed 10 attempt to damage the com pany or prevent tue passage of passen- ger trains, all freight trans having pre- viously been withdrawn from tra vel.
 To simmer the strike down to point, the most correct theory we have beeI able to obtain is that hen Paymaster trary, of the Atlantic & Pacific road |, was at Winslow recently, he gave q check to Freight Conductor Kuechei- doIfer, tine amount of the check callin, for S2J more than his wages, having ta- ken tine man for another. To the latte ne gave KuechendOrier's check, whicl was $20 less than he had earned during the month. The freight conductor ap- piled at j. II. Breeds, and his check witI the go in excess of his wages, Wal cashed. few days afterward the oth- CT party, whose check was less than his wages, but who had had the check casl. ed, called on Kuechendorfer for the $2V. he latter point blank refused to tuin over that which was not his, and the company on hearing the circumstances immediately dispensed with his ser vices, which Is legitimate under any law known to the rules of honesty.
 At the spne time of Kueciiendorfer's discharge an order was issued discharg- ing J. H. Tidings who had positively re- fused to do his wo satisfactorily to the company, or to the Flagstaff mine, which short run he had to attend.
 These men then called together the nembers of their lodges. and the strike winch is now in progress, originates nom their actions.

SRept by the Tide of Popularity

To the topmost pinnacle of success, Hostytter's Stomach Bitters stands d shining proof of what genuine merit, backed by the living force of proven facts, can attain. The North and South American continents, Europe, Australia, the West Indies, Guatemala and Mexico have all contributed wide patronage and testimony of the most favorable kind-but unsolicited-to swell the rep utation of this sterling remedy. Among the maladies for which the most convinc- ing public and profess .onal testimony proves that it is benign curative, are chIlls and fever, bilious remittent, dumb ague, and ague cake, dyspepsia, liver complaint, nervousness, debility, kidney and bladder complaints. It nit igates the infirmities ot age, hastens convalescence, has g tendency to pre- vent i'll consequences from exposure and exhaustion. Persons of sedentary hab- it's and lahorious occupations will find it an eyer usefuI tonic.

E. s. Stover, who was arrested las; week charged with assault with dead ly weapon, had a hearing last Saturday before Charles Jarvis, Justice of the Peace, and vas held 10 answer before the grand jury in the sum of $500. There was futile attempt made on the part of the defendant to prove that it was pipe, instead of a pistol which he drew. The testimony to the contrary !, however, was too strong. and the pipe racket was no go. The similarity be- tween a briar-root plpe and q nickle- plated English bulldog, was not strong enough to go down with Judge Jarvis.
