Terrible Deaths.

A little over month ago, says the AL buquerque Citizen, we gave an account of mad coyote running through Laguna and surrounding country and attacking everything 1t chanced to meet. It ran through the cattle camp of Bud Eddie man, near Fl Rito, while the men were asleep and bit four men. One of the men died in seventeen days after being bitten, another in twenty-one days and the third died last night, exactly thirty four days after beiog attacked. Drs. Raster and Pearce, of this city, went out yesterday to attend ,he man, but they could render no assistance. The coyote bit him several times on the head and the wounds had healed up nicely. Three days go he was taken sick, commenced frothing at the mouth and at the sight of water he would go into terrible convul- sons, taking the combined strength Of halt a dozen men to hold him. Blood and foam would run from his mouth in a constant stream for hours and late last night, just before the doctors left for the city. he went into convulsion from which he died. The man was Mexican and resided in the neighborhood. The fourth man, who was bitten at the same time, is sick and it is feared that he will also die from hydrophobia.

ABOUT a year ago, while discussing the irrigation question, the EPITAPH called attention to the fact that one section in a bill passed by Congress In October, 1888, was calculated to have a very disastrous effect on Arizona, but no attention was given the warn ing. Attorney General Miller has now delivered an opinion on this section, and if it is sustained it will retard the growth and development of Arizona for an indefinite period of time and work great hardship on many people who have expended their money and time in constructing irrigating canals and building homes. The only way to avert the impending calamity is to make such a vigorous protest to Con- gress that they will so amend the law as,to do away with the objectionable feature. The people of Arizona can not afford the fun of being used as models to be experimented on by a crank on typographical surveys.

How to Live LORg.

It Is the opinion of pr. Lewis A. Sayre. the famous surgeon, that every body. under ordinary circumstances, should live to be one hundred years old. We live now on an average of from eight 10 fifteen years longer than our fore fathers, but still we die prematurelY. In his judgment it Is possible for most of us to be cen'enarians, without negieCting the ordinary duties of life, if we observe certain laws of health. In an interview lately he makes many useful suggestions, which, if complied with, would tend 10 leng hen he average Of life considerably. He says that the majority of people eat more than they ought, and loo fast. In ening it is not a question of how much a person can devour, but how much he can digest. Water should be drank al its natural temperature. Ice water, which people generally gulp down in unlimited quantities, paraIyzes the nerves of the StOlhdLhI anu iS OuC LII ttiS . CdtSSt causes of dyspepsia in this country. Boiling water, drunk an hour or 50 be- fore meals, is valuable aid 10 digestion in many cases. Whisky is useful at times, like castor oil, but it is not beneficial when used as beverage.
 Tobacco is decidedly injurious when used 10 excess. A mild cigar, smoked after dinner, however, has a soothing effect, and the smoker sustains less in- jury from it than he would from rushing off to work on full stomach.
 The average person ought to have eight hours sleep. Some people who work al night and sleep in the daytime live to good old age, but people who work during the day and sleep during the night are better off
 Open grates are far preferable to any other means of heating house, for'they help ventilation, which is an important factor in the prolongation of life.
 The American people have too much 10 do, too much to think about, and toe much care to bear. Many are very much distressed, as younger men, to know how they are going to make sure of living By and by, when their reputation has grown, they are driven to death with the work forced upon them.

\ Melican Chinawoman as a Bride.

The Walker Lake (Nev.) Bulletin says: Charley Qui, the Chinese store keeper, arrived on Monday last from trip to California. He was accom- panied by bride. The marriage cere- mony was performed in Delano, Kern county, Cal, by Justice of the Peace, the young lady absolutely refusing to be married "Chinese fashion" She is a native of California, of Chinese parents, speaks and writes English like native, and dresses in the latest style. As the train stopped at the de- pot on Monday a salute of 50 bombs was fired, and a continuous roar of firecrackers was kept up for half an hour. The bride was met at the depot by a carriage and conveyed to her future home amid great eclat.

AFTER many months of blindness and wilfully declining to listen to any advice or evidence, the Tucson Citizen
 has finally found that it's doll is stuffed with a very vile article of sawdust, that the feet of it's beautiful idol are made up of poor quality of clay. In a recent issue the Citizen says MT. Ziegenfuss, while in Tucson, made the remark that if it was necessary to squelch the Citizen his company would start 8 newspaper there, where upon tine Citizen gets up and speaks out in meeting. The Phenix Herald also states that the proprietors of the Republican have expressed their inten- ton to "do" that paper. It would oc- cur to many that the people owning the Republican, in endeavoring to "squelch" the Citizen and "do" the Herald, have undertaken a job of very large proportions, and the EPITAPH is of the opinion that the new paper is liable to rupture itself in the attempt

A Paying Mine.

The Fame Mining Company has re ceived complete returns from seven bars of silver bullion shipped to San Francisco, the product of 34 tons Of ore from the Fame mine, which gives the total value at $22,05S79 or an average of about $65O per ton. After deducting the entire cost of mining and milling, and improvements made, the company was enabled to declare a dividend of SIS, ,l37.74.
 A high degree of efficiency was at tained in the milling of the ore, which was under the personal supervision Of Paul J. Johnson. Work at the mine progresses satisfactorily, and the Fame promises to prove a bonanza to the fortunate owners Silver Belt.

Tie Chinese Language.

The impression generally prevails that and sounds in lhe Chinese language gre necessarily mnltiIudinous in form anu character; but the fact is that when re- duced, as 1t might be, to its minimum of characters, it is more simple than any language existant. There seems tn be a long and short form of expressing sounds on paper. We see it stated that Rev w. H. Murray, a missionary al Pekin, has devised system for teaching the blind, and has reduced he Chinese Ian guage to 4oS syllables. By this system the blind have been enabled to learn to read with marvellous facility. So simple is the system thus inaugurated that the printing of books is produced at an amazingly low rate compared with books embossed for the blind in this country Among the Chinese the blind are re- garded with great consideration. The writer was informed many years ago by Dr. McGowan, a weIl-known Chinese missionary, and person we'll acquainted with the Chinese language, that Chinese characters might be reduced to less than half the characters employed in the English language, and that when S O re- duced it would be the easiest language, for use in telegraphing, of any in the world. The work of MT. Murray in that direction seems to confirm the opinion of Dr. McGowan,
