Second and Adams street. All the
Chinese are aware of the case and shun
the victim, refusing to come into con-
tact with him or touch anything he
touches. He is compelled to eat alone
and sleep in separate apartment.
The case is of long standing and was
contracted in China where Foo Bans
wife and children live. He lived for
some time at San Francisco but the
damper atmosphere there tended to
hasten the progress OF the disease
and he came to Arizona some years ago.
The toes of the victim are said to have
fallen off and other evidences of the
disease are hidden by his clothing. He
Is quite wealthy, but has no hope of
ever returning to China, ts his wife
writes to him imploring him not to re-
turn. 1t is said that he consort5 with a
woman living in the French district
and who ia the only white person ac.
quainted with the fact of his disease.
Foo Ban, by the way, is the China
man who won $500 and demoralized
an old and almost impregnable Chinese
lottery here last fall. The lottery had
no money behind it and nole seemed
to be needed since the chance OF win
ming was so remote as to lie considered
almost an impossibility. That was the
chance Foo Ban got and it took the
proprietors of the broken scheme three
weeks to get the money together to pay
him.

NADELINE'S RUSE.

By the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, March 20.-The cross
examination of the plaintiff in the Pol
rd-Breckenridge case was continu ed
this morning. 1t began with the identi-
tication and reading OF a letter written
by Miss Pollard to her protector Rhodes
in November 1884, in which she asks
him to make special effort to get
money to pay her board suggesting that
he borrow it and adding an invitation
to come at certain hour TO see her,
saying they would be alone and have a
pleasant time.
Other letters asking fer money were
read. She went on to say that these
demands for money were for the pur-
pose OF aliaying Rhodes suspicious.
Being in urgent need of money seemed
good evidence that she had 10 other
resources except what she got from
him. Breckenridge, she said, planned
it all and he dictated the letters dated
from New orleans and others. The
court then took a recess.

under the joint direction of Garden
Valley lodge I. 0. 6, T. and the two
local w. G. Z. .. societies, the Willard

dresses fraught with tribute to the great
apostle of temperance, whose life has
been spent in its promotion, whose
efforts had secured the enactment
of the first prohibitory law and
whose influence had extended beyond
the boundaries of Maine to every civil
lied country. A pleasing feature of the
exercises was the excellent music.

AT HOME AND ABROAD.
Gen. Neal Dow Honored on TWO
Continents.


LONDON, March 20.-Exeter Hall was
the scene this afternoon of great pub
lie demonstration under the auspices Of
the United Kingdom Alliance and the
British Womens' Temperance Associa-
tion of England in celebration of the
ninetieth birthday of Neal Dow.
While this was the main purpose of the
gathering it is no secret that it had
been planned by the organizations
named with the ulterior view OF pro-
noting public sentiment favorable to
the pending local option measure. The
principal speakers were Sir Wilifred
Lawson, the. English parliamentary
champion of prohi ibition and Lady
Henry Somerset.
An address written by Miss Frances
Willard was also read, the eminent
American being still an Invalid at Lady
Henry Somerset's cottage at Reigate,
and being unable to stand the exertion
of trip to London and a public ap-
pearance. The meeting adopted reso-
lutlons eulogizing the life work of the
great American and congratulating him
upon having reached his ninetieth
birthday.

ANOTHER FAILURE.
The Democratic Committees Ill
Luck Is Continuous.

The Democratic Committees III
Luck Is Continuous.
Today, March 20, 1894, will pass into
history as the day in which the Demo-
cratic territorial committee of Arizona
intended to meet, but didn't. 1t may
not have been the fault of the commit
tee, for though it may control and regu-
late many things it cannot be held re-
sponsible for the eccentricities of rail-
road trains.
That's why the gentlemen from the
south lay impatient at Maricopa yes
day while the Democratic party in the
territory was going to waste for want OF
organization.
Great preparation had been made to
insure the attendance of an unlucky
thirteen and when the westbound
Southern Pacific pulled out from Tue
son on Monday night it bore as dele
gates of the committee Sam F. Webb,
of Nogales; B. M. Crawford, M. Sam
niego, Jas. Finley, w. K. Meade, Chas.
F. Hoff, Joe Scott and R. N. Leather
wood, of Tucson Dan Ming of Graham
county, and G. NJ. Shannon, citizen of
New Mexico.
When the train reached Maricopa it
had encountered SO many delays that
Conductor Bulge despairing of the ar
rival of the statesmen returned to the
city without them. Later a telegram
was received from them saying they
were there. A reply was sent telling
them to stay there until special could
be sent after them. 1t was now assured
that whenever the meeting might be
held it certainly would not be held on
March 20.
1t would not seem that it made any
vital difference whether the meeting
occurred on this day or the next but it
did. There were superstitious gentle
men in that crowd from Tucson, Gra-
ham county and New Mexico. Many
believed that the failure to connect at
Maricopa was but the beginning of a
series of calamities ard that it was to
be interpreted as sign that the meet
ing was not ordered of the gods.
Enough delegates turned back to
destroy the quorum so that the meet
ing OF the committee is apparently
more nebulous than ever.

Sr. LOUIS, March 20.-It is learned
