Tombstone Prospector,1


 Fred Storer, son of the resident manager of the Boston Mining and Reduction Co.,, came within an ace of losing his life Wednesday night from a bullet III the head. Fred had in company with four Mexicans, been getting out poles for John $. Robbins, whose ranch is Tn the Huachuca noun tains near the line. The camp where they slept was few miles below the line.
 Reports of Indians in that ghbor- hood had frightened the MexisAs and they were always onfThs y trace or slgn of them. 0n8W edn esday night, about midnight, Fred arose from his blankets that were spread upon the ground, with the intention of poking the camp fire, or some other trifing affair, when the dog that was with the party began barking in a loud manner. The Mexican sleeping nearest to him was an old man about 50 years of age, and was very timid, judging from the fact that he slept with his Winchester rife across his body. When he awoke from the noise made by the dog. he seized his rifle, sat up ln bed, and although Fred called to hlm that nothing was the matter, he paid no attention to his ejaculation, but took deliberate aim ano fired.
 Fred dropped all in heap, and the Mexican supposed he was dead; and Fred did not know anything more for several hours, when he awoke to find himself lying in a pool of his own blood, and deep furrow cut into the left side of his head about four inches long. He called to the Mexican tc come and blnd pp his wounds and take him to some place where he could receive care, and It was 9 o'clock yee- terday morning before Cal Cox, tine foreman of the ranch, came to the res cue and drove the wounded man tC the custom house, where bis wound,  were dressed and an ambulance se cured to bring him to town. ". c. Green and Cox arrived 1T town last night about g o'clock witt the sufferer, and Dr. Goodfellow Wa. summoned to the Palace Hotel where rtbe wounded man Ties. Sdf~ seer this morning and seemed cheerful anc i pleased at his narrow escape iron death.
 Ills wound, although painful, is no considered dangerous. His parents who reside at the Boston mill ranch were notified this morning of thoi sons experience and condition. Al though receiving the best of care her he will no doubt be moved to his hom l in a day or two.

An agreement has been reached in Committee of the House with regard to Mexican lead ores, which has been a vexatious problem. Lead ores will be dutiable at 15c per pound, and will have to pay a duty regardless Of whether or not tie lsad IS associa- ted witb other ores. Under a ruling of tte Treasury Department lead ores were allowed to come in free of duty when mixed with silver ore where the latter was the material of chief value. There was great deal of complaint in the West over this ruling, and un- der the new schedule lead ore will pay duty under all circumstances.

It is painfully apparent that a few of the philantbropists that rushed so bravely to the rescue" of the suffer- CTS of the Walnut Grove d,saster, have speculated extensively upon the rhis- fortunes Of those people, Judging from the various blllS coming in, there can be no question as 10 this fact. There are always a set Of demagogaes who at the first sound of danger rush frantically toward the point for the sole purpose of the notoriety attached 10 the transaction, while others of a more reprehensible characterlmpro the opportunity for gain both of these individuals were out in force during the calamity above mentioned.-fh@- nix Gazette.

More towns die for want of conf dence on the part of business men and lack of public spirit than from an5 other cause. When q man in search of home, or business location, goes into a town and finds everything brim full of hope and enthusiasm oyer the prospects ot the place, and all earnest lv building it up, he soon becomes i'm bued with tue same spirit, and as a result he drives down hlS stakes and goes to work with the same interest. When, however, he goes to town where everyone expresses doubt and apprehension fer the future prospects Of the place, moving about and in dulging in mournful complaints, he naturally feels 1t is no place for him, and at once shakes the dust off his feet, while he pulls out with all possi- ble speed for some other place. Con seousntly, try and make an enterprls- inc town out of one in which you live. When you are. working for your own town you are accomplishing all the more fer vourself.-Las Vegas Optic.

IN the INST; prices slowly but steadily melted
away, until toward D. m, when most of the

OF large interest which had CO ne ia to support
the market found few believers. and the harlem

downward tendency. Late in the day how

up 70 and beyoni the level OF the best figures of
