Bitten by a Rattlesnake.
PheniX Republican.

Andrew Huston is recovering, at Tempe, from the effects of the rattle snake-b bite received by him a few days ago. It seems that he was walking on his ranch, four miles southe lst of the city, when he noticed small rattlesnake in an attitude of attack. Mr. Huston looked around for a stick or stone, but none seemed to be at hand, so, unwilling to let the snake escape, he jumped upon it and killed it. He went home and, feeling little pain in his foot, pulled his shoe off to find that the fangs of the rattler had penetrated the elastic side and had inflicted wound on the ankle. He then became conscious of his danger and rode into Tempe. When he being arrived fully an hour and a half after bitten, the poison had begun to do its work. He was hberally dosed with whiskey and other remedies, however, and with the most unremitting care was brought through the safety. His phy si- elan says that his escape from death was very narrow one.

It had to be hauled distance of sixty miles, but since that time 1t has been found in abundance near the mine at the depth of 30 feet Mir. Frank Vel come, favorably known throughout the territory, is the superintendent of the mine and the erection of thirty stamp mill means extensive operations and the establishment of a large camp at Gun sight mine.,

A Faithful Man
Nogales Herald.

No one man has done more to put a stop to the Chinese influx from Mexico than Hon. A. Willard, United States con sul at Guaymas. Mir. Willard has held that position for p years and it would re- quire the combined efforts of a great mum Der of political giants with any admins tration to oust him if he did not wish to be busted. He has attended closely to the affairs of his office, has never been af- flicted with swelling of the head, has made friends with all-Mexicans and Americans-who have had business with him, and has come to be looked upon as one of the very best men in the consular service. With him ail Americans are good people, be they miners in shrunken ovearlls or dudes in tennis suits; and the former are as kindly and attentively treated as the latter.

COMING AGAIN.

Owing to his large and increasing
practice in this community, DR.. Ham Of
New York, viii make a return visit to
Lancaster, at the Wright House, Friday.
June Is. Those who have been treated
unsuccessfully BY other physicians will
have sn opportunity to consult this EN-
iDent specialist. 1t is well known fact
and one that appeals to the judgment of
every thinking person, that a physician
who deyotes his whole time to the study
and investigation of a certain class of
diseases, must become better qualified
70 treat such diseases than he who at
tempts to treat every i'll without giving
any special attention to any class Of dis
eases.
The doctor has all the investigation Of
a thorough college training, and wide
spread experience. which the most am
bilious physician could desire; by the
side Of others Who have the fitness and
nothing more. he stands but pre-
eminent. His cures are remarkable.
They are wrought in cases which seem
utterly hopeless. and no one no matter
what his malady should despair until
after consulting this eminent authority.
