To: smith gets into Trouble with n 1 Ennd near Tubn City and is Fatally
 Wounded by Them.
 1 IL is the custom of the NavaJo h. dians in the summer, to range their tlocks of sheep on the public domain outside their reservation. The custom leads to more or less trouble with white settlers who are living near the reser- yation. The Indians assume tho right i to all the range and water, and it is this condition of affairs that causes trouble which sometimes leads to open warfare between settlers and Indians
 The Navajoes have for some weeks past been ranging in the neighborhood of Lot Smiths place. near Tuba City, and have been using water and range freely. Monday, Smith, in order to- frighteu the Indians away, commenced to kill their sheep killing some six or seven of them. They immediately re- taliated by killing his cattle. This in- censed Smith and he opened fire on them, firing number of shots without effect. The Indians did not at first re- alize that they were being shot at but soon opened fire on Smith, and he re- ceiyed a bullet in his back, the ball go- ing through and coming out near the right breast. After receiving his l wound Smith rode to his house . half mile from the scene of the shooting.
 Only six Indians were concerned in the affray, although about two hundred of them were near at hand and many of them witnessed the shooting. | Several white men were also witnesses. The affair occurred Monday afternoon and young Lee, who brought the re- port, left Tuba that night and reached this place Wednesday noon, and it was thought that Smith could not live but few hours.
 After the shooting the Indians com menced skinning the sheep and cattle killed as if nothing unusual had hap pened, and were preparing for grand feast when the messenger left.

Another Railroad Prospect.

Last Friday the surveying party from the coal fields north of this place reached here. They left Winslow some time ago and made a survey from that place to the coal fields and from there to this place. The members of the party were reticent in regard to the most favorable route, but it seems that preference is given the route from this point, it being shorter and of an easier grade, and it is also but few miles of the survey of the Grand Canyon railroad. These coal fields will, without doubt, be soon opened as they are the largest in the Territory and by far the most valuable, as there IS good coking coal in this extensive deposit, and whether the railroad is built from Winslow or Flagstaff it will benefit this section.

The Ash Fork RaiIrond.

Major G. W. Vaughn, chief engineer of the s. F., P. X P. railway, returned last night from his visit to Phenix, coming via Albuquerque and Ash Fork, and from the latter point coming in over the line of the road. He says that work is progressing satisfactorily on the grade. It will require about six weeks yet to complete the rock work where the force is at work at present. The first mile of grade in Chino valley has been completed aud the sub-contractor has moved camp still further up the valley. Sub-contractor Morse, who has the largest force of men and teams at work on dirt work, has moved camp down nearer Chino valley, where he has taken three mile contract. When asked as to the total amount of grade that has been completed, Major Vaughn replied that if it were all together therc would be about forty miles. Of this seventeen miles are graded out from Phoenix and from twenty-three to twenty-five miles between Prescott and Ash Fork.
 Material for bridges has commenced to arrive at Ash Fork, there being now a large quantity of it on the ground there and men to construct the bridges have also arrived, and work on these structures will soon be commenced. - Journal Miner

 On steamboats, cars and stago-coacnes Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is carried as tho most important item in the materia medica of the travelling public. It deprives vitiated, brackish water of its hurtful properties and cxecrablc flavor, counteracts the pcrnicious effects upon the stomach of bad or indigestible food, remedies cramps, heartburn and wind upon the stomach. It is fine defense against malarial disorders, null lilies tho effects of excessive heat, cold and damp, relieves sick-headrches, and is an incomparable cure for costiveness and biliousness. The fatigue of travel often tells most disastrously upon in- valids and convalescents, occasionally to such an extent as to jeopardizc life. Persons in feeble health, apprehensive of bad effects from travel, will, if pro- vided with the Bitters, be far less likely to have their fears realized.
