one store for Trimmings, almost

the most complete Trimming

are not more than they should
be. Shop here tomorrow for

PLENTY OF WATER.
The Mining Men of Cochise
 County Happy.
The Gro Blanco Starts Up With Enough Ore to Run
 For Years.

From the Tombstone Prospector.
 G. W. Cheyney left this morning for his mines in Gro Blanco. He received welcome news Hast night which ac- counts for his buoyant happy spirit and smiling countenance as he spoke of his good fortune. Mr. Cheyney has one ol the best mines in his district, the only drawback being water with which to run his mill and concentrators which he recently built there. A dam has been erected which will bank water back nearly mile and is located in a most favorable spot, having an immense water shed.
 Everything has been ready to stsrt up in full blast as soon as the rains would set in. Last Saturday a heavy rain fell-one of the heaviest known in that district, and as result over Y feet of water on level is now stored in the big dam, which is sufficient water, al- lowing for evaporation, to run the mill for nearly year.
 Mir. CheyneY is an indefatigabl ble worker and has spent much money in developing his mines to their present hattering proportions, and is deserving of success.
 There are several Tom bstoners at Gro Blanco who are working on the Mon- tana mine, belonging to MT. Cheyney, among whom are MT. Alexander Smith, formerly connected with the Huachuca Water company, who will run the big engine, while G. Frazier, also a we'll known old timer, will handle the lever on the night shift Geo. Oaks is to have charge of the batteries in the mill Geo. R. Watt. the chief carpenter and H. c. Stillman, shift boss in the mine.
 The mill was started yesterday and will run constantly, enough milling ore being in sight to keep the stamps pounding away for many years.

So His Aunt Beat Him with n Rubber
Tire.

So His Aunt Bent Him with Rubber
Tire.
Belle Nash, a weIl-to-do colored woman.
was arrested and taken 10 the barracks
last night, charged with cruelty beating
her nephew, Johnny Lovett, who says he
is Is. but who does not look to be over 10
years old.
Johnny ran away from home Tuesday
and remained away until yes
terday afternoon. His aunt found
that he was staying on East
Broad street, near the Plant system
depot. She sent after him and had him
brought back TO her house at No. l45
West Broad street Then she tied his
hands behind his back, "bucked' him
down on the floor and proceeded TO lay
IL on to him with all her might.
The boy says she used the rubber tire
from the wheel Of a baby carriage, and
that she beat him for an hour and
half He broke away and ran out Of
the house and down the street, with his
aunt after him. She tripped and fell and
he made his escape. Some white boys
whom he met cut the rope which tied
his hands He then went on until he
found Policeman Mitchell, to whom he
roprted what had happened, and showed
the wounds on his back.
Mitchell arrested the woman and carried
her into the barracks with the boy. At
the barracks the woman said that Johnny
was a very bad boy, that he had run away
several times, and that he had a way Of
buying things at the place where she
did business and having them charged
to her. She only gave him what he de-
served, she said.
The woman was released on bond.
The boy was seen at the barracks. He
had evidently been severely beaten.
There were a number OF red marks on
his back. The skin had been taken of
in places, but no blood had been drawn.
Johnny acknowledged that this was the
third time he had run away from home.
He said that he had been raised by the
Nash woman but he did not know wheth-
er she was his sister or his aunt or his
mother. The woman is well-to-do and
owns considerable real estate.

DECIDED TO ENTER THE PLAN.
The savannah and Western Bond
holders All Right.

holders All Right.
Judge William D. Harden, vice chair
man of the debenture holders committee,
and the representative here of the reor-
ganization committee, received a tele-
gram from one of the committee yester-
day stating that satisfactory agreement
had been reached with the bondholders
committee of the Savannah and Western
railroad, and that the committee had de-
oided to come into the reorganization plan.
Judge Harden said he inferred that very
slight notifications in the plan on this
account, If any at all, have been made.
Judge Harden also received a letter
from a member of the committee stating
that the deposits of Central railroad stock
and certificates of indebtedness both IN
Savannah and with the Mercantile Trust
Company in New York had been SUM-
GENTLY large to give the committee a large
majority both of the debentures and the
minority stock. The letter stated that
under these circumstances the plan by ITS
terms had become fully operative. and
that 1t would doubtless be formally de-
cared so within short time.
This will no doubt be welcome news to
those interested in the securities Of the
property. Not only is the plan practical
" assured of success, but the Savannah
and Western road Is retained, 1t appears,
from dispatches published in the Morn
ing News this morning. as well as from
the information received by Judge Har-
den. The security holders will look fer
the plan to be declared operative now at
an early date.

RUSH OF THE MELONS.
The Present Week Promises to he
the biggest Known.

If the present week is a good one, me-
teorologically speaking. it promises to be
the biggest watermelon week of the year,
and that is saying a great deal.
July 8 the Plant system moved nearly
275 cars of watermelons for different
destinations, and on July 4 moved 2l2
cars, Of which 1876 cars were Georgia
melons. Fifteen cars on July were
turned over to the Central at Albany,
five to the Columbus Southern, twenty
to the Georgia Southern and Florida, and
seventy were brought TO Savannah for
shipment to the east by the various trans
portation lines. The other sixteen cars
were from Florida six of them being
brought through Savannah.
The total shipments to July Of this
year have been 1888 cars. The total ship
ments on July of last year were 63 cars.
as compared with PIP this year, and the
total shipments to July 5. 1894, were only
LISA cars. This is an increase this year
SO far of nearly $50 cars. OF the melons
shipped this years Gil cars from Georgia
and 242 from Florida territory have passed
through Savannah for shipment to the
eastern markets.

DIsFIGURED HER RIVAL.
Two CoIored Women Fight About a
Man.

Mamie Wheeler was turned over to the
superior court yesterday by Recorder VIII
son. on the charge of assaulting with in
tent to murder Annie White.
Both women are colored. They fought
over Isaac Johnson, a young colored man,
for whose favors they aspired. Johnson
was walking along Price street at the
early hour of 1:40 a. m. in company with
Mamie Wheeler. Annie met them at the
corner of York street, and wanted to
speak TO White. He paid no attention to
her. She insisted on speaking 10 him, and
caught hold of him by the arm. Then
Mamie turned upon her rival like an in
furated tigress, and slashed her with a
knife, giving her several severe cuts.
Johnson tried to separate the women,
but did not succeed until the Wheeler wo-
man had badly disfigured her rival.
Johnson and Mamie were both arrested
by Officer Scully, and the White woman
was sent to her home in the police ambu-
lance. Her wounds are not considered
dangerous Johnson was released by the
recorder, as he proved that he did all he
could TO prevent the fight.
