Nine Lives.

Doe the Chinaman, was brought to town yesterday and is at present resting easily in the hospital. He has two wounds, one bullet going through his neck and another one shattering his shoulder blade. The wounds were made by very large bull lets. The vitality of tho wounded man was something wonderful. He was shot last Thursday and his wounds were not dressed until Saturday night He was brought up thirty miles in the broiling sun laying on his back on the bottom Of a wagon with nothing under him but the boards. He eats heartily and although weak from loss of blood he has said enough to go to show that he had seen an Apache crawling down towards the camp. He went in the house and taking rife from the cor ner went out and waited for chance to get a shot at the renegade. The opportunity soon came and he took good aim and fired, whether he ! it the intruder or not, he does not know
 as the distance was about quarter of
 mile. Almost immediately after 1 firing. volley came from behind the rocks and he fell over with his should CT shattered and a stinging sensation
 in his neck. He had sense enough to get hold of the rifle again and with ! the aid of his left hand and one leg
 he fired the gun of again, which gave { the Indians the idea that he was not
 dead or disabled and they did not mo lest him further When found he was suffering greatly.
 ] He says that he saw three Indians and thinks there may have been more | The trail of five were plainly seen by several Mex-cans. The Chinaman
 thinks that if he had not fired his rife
 that they would have killed him.

A Timely HinI.

It will be of interest at this time to give a scientific outline of the method in winch a mosquito works It's victim In the first place the bill of a mosaui- to is complex institution. It has a hlunt fork st the head, and is appar- entity grooyed. Working through the groove, and projecting from the angle of the fork, is lance of perfect form, sharPened with a fine beyeI. Beside it the most perfect lance looks like hand saw. On either side of the lance two saws are arranged. with the points fine and sharp and the teeth we'll defined and keen. The backs of these saws play against the lance. When the mosquito lights, with it's peculiar hum, it ihrusts it's keen lance and then enlarges the aperture with the two saws, which play beside the lance until the iorked bill, with it's capillary arrangement for pumping blood can be inserted. The. saving process Is what grstes upon the nerves of the victim and causes him to s,rike wildly at the sawyer.-Ex.

ATr.ul,ie se,,lrd.

The trouble with the custom author ities by which halt was caused in the transmission of the San Pablo mining machinery to the mines at Nacosari. has been adjusted and all that retards the movement of the mill is the lack of teams Co do the hauling.
 The cause of the trouble was the misunderstanding regarding the duty epon the timhers, which had been framed near Bisbee and were ready to be put u9 at the mine. The law al lows the importation into Mexico with out duty of houses in sections but does not allow the importation Of the separate timbers of house day after day. In other words. if the company had taken the mammoth building oy- CT the line al one load that would have been non .dutiable, but when one timber or load of tinbers came over at time it was made liable to duty as lumber.
 MT. Paddock of the san Pablo Co. went at once to the City of Mexico and placed the matter before the treasurer and the result is that a special permit has been granted the company to take their framed timhers across without paying any duty.

A silver Lining.

The Mining and Scientific Press takes the following cheerful view si the outlook for a speedy resumption of free coinage: "The Mint has been longer buying 4,5OO,OOO ounces han in any one month in this year. This. taken In connection with the higher prices paid, is accepted by financiers that the surplus stock of silver has been reduced to very small proportions. Let this be as it may, all advices tend 10 warrant the assertion that the out put of the mines is less than in any one year for one or two decades past. Unless there is is an increase ill the output Of silver, the consumption will soon be in excess of the supply Bimetallism continues to forge ahead, not only in this country but also abroad. Several pronoun ed and lead ing mono-metallists in England d have had change of heart; even Lord Sal isbury is leaning towards silver. The president of the Argentine Republic has come out squarely in favor of sil- yer as against gold. The lower house of the Spanish Cortes has passed a bill glvirg the Bank of Spain power to in- crease the notes issued based on silyer. A bill has also been introduced into the Spanish Cortes fsvoring the adop- ton of bimetsIlism. In the United States the advocates for free coinage of silver are becoming more emphatic m their demands, and with the aid of Changers, Farmers Alliance and labor organizations, it now looks as though the next Congress will be forced to re- monetize silver.

A Good Properly.

The ore recently shipped from the Golden Rule mine in the Dragon mountains as test has proved the mine to be valuable one. The Silver City Enterprise says of it:
 The recent test run On the Santa Rosa, nee the Golden Rule, al the Bell < Stevens mill at Pinos Altos estab- fishes the fact for all time, that this much abnsed property is bonanza. A test of fifteen tons was made with out amalgsmating, concentration be- ing the object in view, yet notwith- standing tbIs, ten ounces of Sl6.OO gold was taken from the plates. The next lot of fifteen tons, the plates were carefully dressed, the batteries charg- ed and at the close of the run B oun- ces ol gold were obtained making a total of 43 ounces obtained from a 30- ton lot, besides abonf tiyetons of con- CentTates, having a value of 60 per cent ! lead besides the gold and silver they contain. 4 five ton lot was shipped 10 Pueblo from which as yet no re- turns have been received. The ore ! is a very heavy carbonate Of lead carry ing free geld, and the run inst made
 under the skiIful and practical man.
 agement O. MT. Bell, clearly demon- stfates that the Santa Rosa is mag
 nificent mining proposition and ons
 too that challenges successful compe-
 tition, in the production of gold and | lead values.
