SHOT FROM AMBUSH.
THREE CITIZENS OF ALABAMA RlD-
 oLEo WITH BULLETS.

They Are Fired Upon by Unknown Par
 ties and Two Fatally wounded-The
 Cause Cannot Be Ascertained-Lynch-
 ing Threatened If They Are Caught.
 SELMA, Ala, Dec. 14-Another chap ter of horrors is added to the history of Dallas county, and it is an act to be deeply deplored. Tuesday evening B. H. and Jos. Lyde and Dr. McIver started home form Selma in a double seated buggy. They were driving at a moderate gait, chatting with each other. Just in front of Saunders store about eight miles from Selma, the re- ports of Winchester rifles broke the stiffness of the night. The flash re- vealed the faces of three white men, all of whom opened fire simultaneously, firing about 15 times, at the three men in the buggy. The horses became frightened and ran About three miles before the halfdead men could bring them to stand. When stop was made Dr. McIver made an examination as best he could and found Eli Lyde in a critical condition and Jos. Lyde mor- tally wounded. Both men were shot with 38-caliber balls in numerous places over their bodies Dr. McIvef was struck twice. One ball entered on the left side between the fifth and sixth rib and was extracted below the eighth rib on the right side. He is not expected to live. Dr. Mc1ver says he is at loss to understand why they should have been attacked in such manner and as to who the assailants were. for he was not aware that any of them had an enemy in Dallas county. The city and county officials are using every effort to ferret out the guilty parties, and should they be captured there will doubtless be an other first class lynching party.

Gendarmes and Peasants Have seri-
 Clash at Bitonoto.
 ROME, Dec. 14.-A dispatch from Bito- noto says that a customhouse officer named Curci assisted the local gend. armes to pull down some firework pe- tards which had been constructed by the people in order to celebrate re- ligious festival The inhabitants were furious with this interference with their fete and attacked the gendarmes with stones. The officers replied by drawing their revolvers and firing upon the mob, killing apeasant. This served to further enrage the people, who re- newed their attack upon the gendarmes and eventually drove them into their barracks.
 The mob then pursued and caught the eustomhouse officer, Curci, satu- rated his clothing with petroleum ana set fire to him. The customhouse of ficer would have burned to death on the spot had not the gendarmes received assistance in time to rescue Curci, who was flaming like torch. He IS so se- verely injured that he will die.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infamed condition of the mucous lin ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deaf ness Is the result, and unless the in fammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but all infamed condition of the mucous surfacee.

HI WILL BE DONE.

Arizona IS to be congratulated, that she has. in Governor Hughes, a man broad minded enough, to grasp at once, the vast results to be gained by the Territory, in the carrying out of the great scheme to turn its hitherto desert wastes. into gardens, vineyards, orchards and fields, teeming with their loads of golden fruits and grains, simply by putting the Colorado river into harness, and letting 1t make the electricity, with which it's waters can be lifted to the level of our mesas, and used to supply them, and our hundreds of valleys with water for irrigation. The great stream carries the water. Its rapid current can furnish the power. Arizona has the valleys, the soil and climate. Capitalists have the money. Engineering skill is to be had. With all of these at hand, 1t is the worK of but a day, one of the seven days, of old, to bring this grand scheme to perfection. With such a man as Governor Hughes, whose en- ergy, vim, thoughtfulness, Intelligence and influence, are bound up in seeing this great work well begun, it was not a difficult task to start the ball in motion, which has already been done, and which in the few revolutions that it has made, has picked up some of the wealthiest men, and brightest engine ering minds of the present day, who will see the work carried forward to succ essful end.

THE PEOPLES WISH.

The heart felt wish of the people of Yuma and vicinity, in regard to the appeal of the Algodones land grant case to the U. $. supreme court, was made clear at the mass meeting Satur- day evening last, in the resolutions adopted, without a dissenting voice.
 Hardly ever does it happen. that ap entire community, is unit in feeling, as in this case. Never before in the history of the place, has the heart and soul of our citizens been so stirred up and reused to action. Never was the current of feeling deeper. Never was their determination more marked. The people of Yuma may well feel proud of their action, which should carry with 1t an influence, to which the U. s. Attorney General should listen and obey.

of seven weeks from the time it was sown. It has already been cut twice, both times yielding fine crops.
 V. Westfall sowed his alfalfa the last of June. It came up even and promised well, but afterwards, first on account of too little, and then on ac- count of too much water, 1t partially died out. This is the only piece of poor alfalfa in the valley. The alfalfa sown on the mesa at Yuma Heights, did not come up as we'll, nor has it done as we'll as that sown in the val ley. If sown in October it may do better.
 R. P. Marable, who is we'll posted on the subject says: "While alfalfa has done exceedingly we'll in the val ley, and so far has been almost a sure crop, I believe that if sown in the fall months, 1t will always be a certain and good crop"

News From Agua CaIfemte.

A letter from Agua Oaliente, says, that there are now only about 50 men at work on the South Gila, dam owing to the high water in the river. These are getting ready to put up the great cable, to be used in transporting the heavy rock, some of which weigh 10 tons, from the hillside to the dam. The canals are full of water and grass is the best that it has been for 5 years. As result the cattle are fat and sleek. July 26th Tom Davis was married to Miss Shay borden, both from Oatman Flat. Two painters had left the springs for Alamo to hunt deer, which are plenty. The tanks and holes in the mountains are full of water and the feed is good.
