Howard Herring Dies Sud denly in the Dental Office of Dr,
 WarnekrOs.

Fremont street. It was scarcely be- lieved at first, but proved too true.
 The circumstances as briefly stated by Dr. Warnekros thls morning to a of the PRosPECToR are substa tially as follows: The de- ceased came to his office about IO:3O .. m. or perhaps little later, to have several teeth extract ted. He requested that cocaine be administered to deaden the pain. He sat down in the chair and talked a few moments about Mexico with Dr. Warnekros before submitting to the ordeal. He re- marked as he reclinet in the chair that it made his heart fiutter. which was not considered anything unusual by the Doctor, as nearly all patients are similarly affected when about to undergo the extraction of a tooth. He injected cocaine solution with a syr-
 nge into the gum at the seat of each tooth before extracting it, as he had dono in a thousand cases before. Ar ter extracting three or four roots he turned to get another instrument and while his back was turned, the patient fell out of the chair on the floor in spasm. The Doctor immediately attempted to revive him with cold iwater applications on the face, and seeing that his effoIts were apparently futile, stepped across the yartinto the sleeping apartment of Mir. Monier, in the rear .f the telegraph office, and asked him to run for pr. Hamilton. Tn about two minutes, as it seemed to Dr.. Warnekros, Dr. Hamilton was there and did everything possible to revive the unfortunate young man, but without avail.
 Dr. Warnekros feels keenly the po- sition in which he is placed and says that he would willingly lay down his own life if he could bring back that of his friend.
 MT. Monier, who was called by Dr. Warnekros, states that he heard an unusual noise before being called. He
 an at once for Dr. Hamilton and found him at church. As soon as the doctor arrived he administered anti dotes and advised that Col Herring be notified. MT. Monier went to Col. Herring's office and subsequently, to the house. When the family arrived there, their boy was dead, The scene was heartrending.
 Dr. Sullivan and Dr. Hamilton did everything known to medical science to bring back a spark of lie to the inanimate body. Willing hands as sisted where they could and when the wors. was known gloom fell over tn @ community in which but short time before the deceased had been one of it's most useful and respected mem bers.
 The discussion of the causes of his death is not proper at the present time.
 Howard Herring was aged 27 years, and had been resident of Tombstone for eleven years. He may he said to have grown from boyhool to manhood in this community. He was general iavorite with all who knew him, and was adOred in his own home where the loss of an only son and brother makes the heart of the entire com munity go out to them in the hours O: bereavement. He was admitted to the bar when 2l years of age and was the junior member of the firm of Her ring X Herring, his father being the other member. His future was m st promising one. He was rapidly stepping forward in the ranks of the legal fraternity and showed marked ability for one of his years. During enforced absence of his father in other portions of the territory he handled the business of the firm in d masterly manner and was a source of comfort to his overworked parent, who has lost not only son but counsellor and assistant in whom he had the most implicit confidence.
 To the mother and sisters he was all tha. son and brother could be. But this home will know him no more, except in the memory of the ,,,,t lI;., f,;,,I, ,,,l,, l,o...
