FOUND DEAD.
The Mystery of Block Al Is
 Removed.
The Terrible End of Mrs. Irene Hun- ter, Once a Happy Wife and
 Mother.

The mystery of block Al is solved. The body of Irene, whose unexplained absence was mentioned in THE REPUB- LIcAN of Sunday morning, was found yesterday by Mexican. It jay in the river bed under low branched willow tree. It was more than 200 feet from any path or trail, and was discovered only by the offensive odor which per meated the neighborhood.
 The man who found 1t reported his discovery to Officer Porterie, and he to Justice Kincaid. 4 coroner's jury, composed of A. Kirkpatrick, H. Luhrs, Samuel Saunders, Frank LaDue, J. G. Jennings, Jack Meaghan, F. McCul- tough, Thos. Sweeney and Andrew Dar- nell, was impanelled.
 The body was found in such state of putrefaction it could not be brought to town, but was put into a coffin and buried in potter's field.
 At the inquest, which adjourned un- til after dinner. there were several wit nesses from the "Block." They said that the woman left there on Thursday morning delirit US from 8 long contin- ued drunk. She Iabored under hallu- cination that her brother was follow ing her to murder her. She ran into a a Mexican house and caught woman whom she tried to use as shield against her pursuer. The Mexican woman was so violently handled that her arms are yet discolored from the awful grip of her maddened visitor.
 From this house the woman went in the direction of the place where the body was found. She had evidently died not longer than twenty-four hours before and likely in the afternoon since she lay on the east side of the tree which would have been shaded at that time. Though possibly to her at the time she lay down sunshine and shade were indifferent.
 There were no indications of a strug- gle near where she lay. She must have wandered and wandered by day and by night until she came to this place utterly exhausted and famished.
 The woman's name was Irene Hunte She has husband, William Hunter, living in Los Angeles county, Califor- mia. There is living with him an 1S- year-old daughter. Mrs. Hunter was separated from her husband about eight years ago. Her fall was due to an appetite for liquor. Almost from the time of the separation she had been 8 prostitute. She came to Phe- nix less than two weeks ago. She had been living in Prescott long time and had just served term in jail. 1t is said that as an inducement to her to take up her residence in Phoenix, the Prescott authorities released her from jail and made up purse of $10 for her
 She was about forty years of age.

Telephonins Along Wire Fences.

Down in Texas" said an electrical salesman, ''I think there is a good de- mand for a telephone that can talk over one hundred miles of barbed wire fence. On the ranches cowboys are kept riding the fence,' that is, riding up and down a section of barbed wire fence, inspecting it and keeping it in order. Many ranches are twenty, thirty and fifty miles square, and if a serious break in the fence is found the cowboy must ride back to the ranch to report. Now if good telephone could be provided for each section it would save all that riding. The staples hold ing the two top wires to the posts could be removed, insulators put in their places, and a man would have a complete metallic telephone circuit around his ranch. ."-Electrical Review

TOOTHACHE A SERIOUS ALL

If In the Woods, Far from Dentists, 1t L

II In the Woods, Far from Dentists, 1t
Not to BE Lightly Regarded.
Some one, in writing critically of
novels, once said; "Who ever heard of
the hero Of a tale suffering from
jaundice or mumps, or the heroine
down with a tOothache?" Who, to
be sure, ever did? Jaundce and
mumps and aching teeth are not ro-
mantle complaints. Even the real
lists prefer to omit them from the
ills Of their characters. Under GER
tain circumstances they may, how
ever, be serious ailments.
Has anyone ever stopped to think
seriously of the terrible torture SUI
fered by backwoodsme and inmates
OF logging camps from toothache?
The complaint is by no means I'M
common in the woods, happening
scores Of miles from any town in
which relief might be obtained.
Small wonder, then, that tooth
ache is regarded as a serious matter
in the woods, and that instances are
on record of lOggers committing sui
eide rather than ear the pain.
These facts were ascertained not
long since from a number of guides
in one of the most secluded portions
Of the Adirondacks 1t suddenly oc-
cured to gentleman, who made one
of well-equipped party, that he had
omitted to make his regular annual
call upon his dentist. This sug-
gested the idea of making some in
quiries.
"What do you do?" asked he, 'lf
you have a to thache up here?"

When this tube gets inhamed you have a

when it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its nor
