man whom he has never seen, on

trait almost as accurate in every detail
of feature as if cast had been mod

The story of the circumstances which
led to the discovery of how this re-
suit can be accomplished is of unusual
interest. Towards the end of last year
the ancient church of st, John at Leip-
sic was pulled down TO make room for
a larger building. Before laying the
foundations of the new edifice it was
necessary to remove the collins IN that
portion of the churchyard. Now ira
dition had IL that somewhere close by
Johann Sebastian Bach, the great mu-
stefan. lay buried. Many attempts had
been made in former times to find the
grave, but always without success.

resolved 10 make
one more effort to identify the great
organist's tomb. At first the task APP
peared one of insuperable difficulty.
In the extensive churchyards that sur
round the church are vast accumula-
tions of human remains, lying layer
upon layer. The plague in olden times,
the war of Schmalkalden, the thirty
years war, the seven years war, the
three days battle of Leipsic with Ma
poleon, have all added their victims In
addition the normal death rate OF
the city. 10 discover one single I'M

A geu=ra1 banking pdsiness is done by the human system, because the blood de- pOsitS in its vaults whatever wealth we may gain from day to day. This wealth is laid up against a rainy day" as reserve fund we're in condition of healthy prosperity if we have laid away sufficient capital to draw upon in the hour of our greatest need. There is danger ill getting thin, because it's sign of letting down in health. To gain in blood is nearly always to gain in z0hOEe- some flesh The odds are in favor of the germs of consumption, grip, or pneumonia, If our liver be inactive and our blood i'm pure, or if our flesh he reduced 6eEO5O q hedLhky StGRdar7d. What is required is an increase Ill our g-e1Dl 1ffghtiRg sf71eNgtk. Dr.
 Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery enriches the blood and makes 1t wholesome, stops the waste of tissue and at the same tirna builds up the strength. A medicine which will rid the blood ofits poisOrs, cleanse and 1nv1gorate the great organs of the body, vitalize the system, thrill the whole being with new energy and make permanent work of it, is surely a remedy of great value But when we make positive statement that o8 per cent. of all cases of consumption can, if taken in the early stages of the disease, be CURED with tue Discovery" " it seems like bold assertion All Dr. Pierce asks is that you make thorough investigation and satisfy yourself of the truth of his assertion. By sending to the Worlds Dispensary Med ica1 Association, Buffalo N.

Arrested for Robbery.

Charles Fay is ill the county jail charged with the crime of @ob- bery. In the latter part of last month Mrs. Victoria Neuman arrived from Germany to join her brother, Michael Welz, who has for many years been the owner of Tyson's Wells, in this county. She had with her the savings of d life's labor, about $500 in German, French and American money. About the first of this month Welz came to Yuma to get his sister, who was the guest of Hon. A.. Frank, and she at once turned over her money to him for safe keeping, Mike, who had considerab!e e money and gold dust of his own in his possession, went on a beer drunk, and slept the first night in Jim Doten's corral.
 In the morning his sisters money was gone, together with his own possessions except the gold dust. The matter was kept as still as possible, but a close watch has been kept of suspected parties, and the result is the arrest of Fay. A 50-mark German bill is in the possession Of Marshal Hatch, who deserves great credit for the detec tive ability he displayed in the matter, and there is other evidence which it is not policy to mention now.
 The SENTINEL docs not claim that any one is guilty in advance of a trial, but it is to be hoped the cul- prit, whoever he is, will be brought to speedy justice. The loss of this poor woman's earnings, gained by years of toll, at the hands of a sneak thief, will not speak we'll for the morality and good government of Yuma, should the crime go un- punished. It is asserted that there are those wbo are trying to screen the thief. We trust not, but if 1t is so they should bear in mind that an accessory is punished equally with the principal, in Arizona, and tell what they know. Otherwise, if misfortune overtakes them, they will not have the sympathy of good men.

Having no pistol, guu, club or other weapon, he took his lariat and throwing it lassoed the lion around the neck. Hauling it tight 1t began to choke the infuriated animal which began to Jump and struggle to get away, the boy all the time hauling with all of his might on the lariat, In one of the wild piunges made by the lion he jumped into the air, com ing down behind stout mesquit bush but not low enough so that his fur could touch the ground. The boy held on to his end with Mir. lion sus- pended in the air, until the fierce brute was dead having hung himself The boy took of the skin which meas, ures feet from the tip of the nose to the end of the tail, and keeps it as a trophy of his fight single handed-a and without weapons with a mountain lion.
 The work done on the Apache and RIca Tierra mines by Francisco Pa checo has opened some very fine bodies of rich ore. Everywhere that work is being done in the mines good results have followed. Not much more work will be done until the heat ed term is past.

 The new silver find in the Cat alan mountains in the western portion of the Old Picacho Mining District is opening up we'll. It IS a great vein of rich Silver ore. San Diego mining men are negotiating for Guada, Iupe Martinez Silver King mine which lies at the southern section of the White Gold Basin. The ore is rich in silver. Upon the petition of the miners interested, the Old Picacho mining district has been extended so as to include the mines east to the Colorado rIver, south to the Pot Holes, This is great convenience to the miners in those sections.

FICRCE0.

While one of Julian Para's little boys was playing on the bank of the Colorado just above the postotiice GU Wednesday, he lost his balance and fell into the river. Little Josefa, the fourteen year old daughter of Mariana Gonzales, hearing his cries, ran to the spot and seizing a long willow pole, rushed to his rescue. When she reached the waters edge she found that the pole would not reach the boy, who was just entering the strong cur rent that sweeps along only few feet from the shore. She at once waded out into the river until the water was up to her arms, where she could reach the boy with the end of the pole She told the little fellow who is only four years old to grab hold of 1t, which he did, when she drew him to her and brought him safely out on to the rivers bank. Her presence of mind, quick work and fe2rlessness saved the boy, who in a moment more would have been iii the river's rapid current and beyond the reach of human aid.
 The Humane Society which is doing noble work in rewarding the deserving life savers, should give this little girl a gold medal Jose is one of Plea cho's lovliest and noblest daughters.

He had for catarrh and its complications, but having faith that change of climate would bene- fit him, last spring he left his home here for the Sierra mountains, stopping some little time in Pike, but finding that he was rapidly failing he went on t0 the above hospital, where the skill of physicians and tender attentions of his cousin r.

Took aFRe Wrong 'z'raIl.

County Recorder NJ. | Pool had an experience last Saturday night that he will probable remember for many day and which nearly cost him his life.
 On the afternoon cf that day Mir, Pool started by wagon on a visit to the Thomas mInes and his friend Robert Straus. When within few miles of the mines, having become tired of riding and weary of the slow and monotonous pace of the team he concluded to walk to camp and surprise his friend. The night being dark MT. Pool in some unaccountable manner took the wrong trail and walked as near as he can judge about 17 miles before he reached the camp and during ali this walk he never had a drop of water.
 It has often been our painful duty to chronicle the sad and ter rible death of unfortunate persons who like MT. Pool started to walk only a short distance and never returned. Had it been day time instead of night MT. Poo! would in all probability have perished of thirst.
 A long time ago in conversation with Hon. Geo. w. Norton, regard ing the desert, he informed us, that if he had only a quarter of a mile to walk he always made it a busl- ness to fill a canteen with water and take it with him.
 We consider Mir. Norton's habit an excellent one, and if others in the future who travel on the desert will follow the example of Mir. Norton they will be saved @ great deal of suffering from thirst and it may some time save their lives.
