GiIa Monsters.

Dr. Mearns of the international boundary survey, who made many vsiits to Tombestone, relates his experience with Gile monster to the Scientific American.
 When bending over the reptile to cut off its head, the creature blew it's breath in his face, and he was instantly nauseated. A brother officer received the monsters breath fnll in his face. and was at once nauseated and fell over on his back completely prostrated.
 The doctor does not believe, as many do, that the monsters breath is fatal, but he thinks it has a de- cidedly upsetting effect. Neither does he think the monsters poison is deadlv.-Bulletin.

To Capture me Kid.
The Reward fer His Capture Will be
 Claimed.

Deputy Sheriff Frank Prethero returned Sunday morning with Messrs. J. E. Walker and Joe Pratt from a trip to the White mountains On their return they passed through the Reno mountains and MT. Pre- thero made sufficient investigation to learn conclusively thatit was the Kid who fired the shot that took the life of MT. Philley.
 The Kid had been heard of about Oak Creek and CaIion Creek from which places he went to Reno. MT. Wm. Moore, who is the owner Of a large band of cattle in the Reno mountains, saw Indian camp fires and came across the remains of a calf which had been killed for food, An Indian trail was plainly seen all about the place.
 A short time after the killing of Philley one of the Bacon boys was shot at on Salmon Creek from ann bush and the bullet went through his saddle which he exhibited to substantiate his statement that he had been fired on.
 Sheriff Thompson was positive It was the Kid after he had trailed him many miles. and in the opin- ion of those who know that rene gade is now in the mountains of Reno.
 MT, Prethero is an old Arizonian' a trailor and scout of known ability and is as familiar with mountains of Arizona as with the streets ot Phoenix. He is man of undoubt- ed courage and should he take up the Kids trail, he will earn the re- ward offered by the Territory or be- come the victim to the willy Indian, His plan is for the various counties to furnish him with supplies neces- sary for the campaign and he will enroll. three men who are Indian fighters of repute and will start out for the Kid. The campaign will cost more money than he has at his disposal and it would be a good plan to rid the Territory of this bloodthirsty murderer. Phoenix Herald.
