The more so is this gratify- ing, as the new subscribers rank among the best and most substantial residents of Arizona; these invariably have mani tested their kindly feeling, not simply by becoming subscribers, but by their accompanying favorable and kindly ex- pressions of appreciation.

CLARKsBURG, w. Va, Oct. 49,
While two lumbermen named McCray
and Deuers were telling timber near
Cleveland, Webster County, they cut
down large limetree, which was liter
ally alive with snakes of a variety
never before found in this vicinity.
They were brown in color, large in size,
having yellow jaws, from which they
continuously eVicted a Shiny matter,
and were exceedingly vicious, attack
ing the men as soon as the tree fell.
After killing large number McCray
and Deuers were obliged to retreat.
Securing assistance they returned to
the spot, and a general slaughter took
place, not less than five hundred repti-
les being killed. Investigation was
then made, and from fifteen hundred to
two thousand eggs wereS found in vari-
Gus parts OF the tree.

Head of Il Human

MUNCII:, Ind, Oct. l8.-NY ord has
reached this city from Il source that can
De regarded as being perfectly reliable,
ol the discovery OF a Semi-human mon
stroSlty that lays all other freaks of ma
ture III the shade. Yesterday, while j. .
J.. blackburn Il Washington Township
!armer, was going through Il cornlielG,
IN winch were numerous SCumpS, he
discovered lying on one that was about
io(lr 1cet IN diameter a female dog that
had glyed birth to a litter of pups, one
or which possessed the head of a human
being, although its face bore striking
resemblance to that of the worst kind of
an idiot. Its body was shaped like boa
constructor. and, being of an unusual
length, it would wind around in all con-
celVaDle forms but without injury to
any or its brothers and sisters. The
torelegs are much longer than the hind
ones, which gives it giraffe appear
ancc when standing on It's feet Its
skin IS soft and pliable, and is possessed
OF no hair, with the exception of very
small "casis" on the top Of the head.
Instead of whining, like all pups, it
gives out hideous scream that imi.
tates an eagle when lighting for its
young. While the freak snaps like Il
dog and Is possessed of full set of
teeth, its instinct causes it not to mo-
lest or disturb its relatives, other than
tbs annoyance that is brought about
by natural causes. On its feet are
claws that extend several inches in
length. This monstrosity will, in all
probability, be exhibited, and it is ex-
pected that the owner will reap rich
harvest from the exhibition.

American and ChiIian aIors Fight


SANTIAGO, Oct. 1.-THE anti-Ameri-
can feeling which is very pronounced
reached climax last evening in the
streets of Valparaiso. \ number of
sailors OF the United States steamer,
Baltimore, now in port, were walking
along the street when they were con.
fronted by some sailors of a Chilian
man -of-War. Some words passed, when
fierce fight followed. There was evi-
IDENTIFY bad blood on both sides, and it
only needed u preteXt to bring on a con-
lllct. Both parties were armed with
knives and pistols, which were freely
used. When the cOmbatants were sep
arated by the police and bystanders, it
was found that one of the Baltimore
sailors had been killed ana five others
seriously wounded. Several of the Chill
lanS were also badly hurt. This was
the first time the Baltimore's sailors
had been ashore for month. The In
tendant Of the city had assured Cap
tain Schley Of the Baltimore that his
sailors would be perfectly safe on Chill
ian soil. The feeling today between
AmetlcanS and Chilians is very strong.
Several additional lights occurred today
among sailors, but they were not so Sc
rlous as that of yesterday. The dead
sailor OF the Baltimore will be buried
tomorrow. An armed force will be
Landed from the military guard of hon.
or for the occasion. Trouble is feared,
as 1t will he Sunday and election day.
Cailian officials, alive to the gravity of
the occasion, have again promised the
Americans protection from assault I'M
der all cirCumSt anceS.

HOLD YOUR COTTON.
IMPORTANT ACTION OF THE GREEN
WILLIE ALLIANCE.

The Farmers Advised to Hold Their Cot.

Weighed When Sold by Alliance we,cb.
crs.
GREENvILLE, S. g., Oct. I9.-The
Greenyille County Farmers Alliance
met in special session today for the
purpose of taking some action OH the
vexed question (with them) Of the buy.
ing and selling Of cotton. They pass ed
the following resolutions, which is in.
tended to have far-reachins effect and
to unite tho Alliance Of the South in
an effort to raise the price of cotton:
Whereas, cotton is our cash product,
and producers are forced to take for it
prices below the cost of production.
Not only the farmers but the merchants
who furnished them supplies on time,
must sustain loss. The profits on cot.
ton are divided between SPECTATORS
and manufacturers.
We the Greenville Farmers Alliance.
do advise our farmers to refuse to sell
their cotton at the present prices, and
TO at once warehouse so much cotton as
Will satisfy their creditors, and bOr-
row from banks or individuals on ware
house receipts, and hold their cotton
for better prices.
That the action of our meeting be
published throughout the Cotton States,
and we ask the farmers to at once.
through state and county Alliances, act
III accordance there with.
That all Sub-Alliances are hereby re-
Quested TO call meetings at once to act
OH these resolutions.
The Alliance Of this county proposes
to accomplish the purpose of the reso-
luton by concentrating the cotton
brought to this market in the Alliance
warehouse for the purpose of having it
graded into lots, $50 that each grade
can be sold at its true market value"
Ihe warehouse will store cotton fifteen
days free Of charge to buyer and seller
alike, enabling the seller to hold his
cotton for better prices and the buyer
to get large lots for shipment. After
the fifteen days free storage is out, the
cost of storage and insurance Will not
exceed twenty-five cents for the first
month and twenty cents for SUBJ
Sequent months.
y committeeman OF the Alliance SAYS:
1T is now generally conceded that the
present crop is far short OF that of last
year, and of a much finer quality; yet
the prices are below the cost Of produc-
tlon. 1t therefore must be apparent to
all that there is everything to gain and
nothing to lose by holding. Some of
the Greenville banks have agreed to ad
vance literally on warehouse receipts"
~ resolution was also passed asking
every true Allianceman not to sell his
cotton until he takes it to the ware
house: The Alliance proposes to have
grader of cotton, or grade it them
selves by types" from New York.
The cotton buyers here are delied, and
If the plan of the Alliance is carried out
they must buy Alliance cotton at the
warehouse and have it weighed by ALL
ance weighcrS.
