bOMBlRDMElT. The China Warships Sunk
 by the Enemy. MANY D SASTERS REPORTED The Japanese Have China's Few Remaining Ships Within
 Their Grasp.
MANY D SASTERS REPORTED

LONDON, Feb S-A cablegrsm iron, Wei Hai Wei, dated February 5, says
 the Chinese fleet has practically ceased
 to exist. The ironclBd Chen Yuen ana
 her sister ship, the Ting Yuen, have
 been sunk and the other vessels of the On. .nese fleet are sithln the grasp of the Japanese.
 At daybreak on Sunday the Japanese fleet opened fire on the Liu Kung forts,
 shich replied vigorously. The bonn bardment became terrific. The first
 Japanese division, iDcluding the flag ship, directed its force against the east ern island batteries, while toe second division shelled Fort Sehih. The Chi nese fleet soon came to the assistance of
 the forts. The Ting Yuen u-ed her guos with effect, but succeeded in di- verting some of the Japanese fire from the forts to herself. The Lili Yuep, 6 smaller ship, also fought we'll. There were many casualties. Two Chinese gun boats also assisted, but were not b"d- ly damaged. These four vessels fOughi Arperaiely until after dark, when the oIng ceased on both sides. During nde night the Japanese learned from beprisoper who had been captured, that admiral Ting, the Chinese naval com | mander, had ordered the captains of the various chips to remain inside the habor, even if the islands should be captured, snd endeavor to destroy the
 Japanese fleet. Every officer was or dered to remain at his post until the last, under pain of dishonor or death. wARsHIPs SUNK.
 The bon bardment was resumed today, Sunday's operation being repeated. The | fire fir ID Fort Sehih continued weakly The Chinese men-of war were so re- peatediy and badly hit that their guns were hsudied with difficulty and witt, less spirit. Towards the close of the fight the Ting Yuen and Chen Yuen were disabled. They gradually settled and foundered, amid the shouts of Jap anese both on the land and sea. The other hinese vessels were in distress. The dispatch concludes with the state
 ment that the Japanese are preparing to carry Liu Kong by st rm. The Cb. D Yuen and Ting Yuen were built at tbe Vulcan works, Stettiu, Germany. The former was launched in Decem Der, 1882, and the lartef in Decem Der. 1881. Chief Engineer King of the United States navy recently described the vessels as follows: They are armUred ships ot the bar bette type with a citadel amidship- Rising above are two others placed CT
 eechelon, in each of which are noun ed two 12-Inch, 5O-ton Krupp guns. while on the bow and stern one cf Krupp's long 8 inch guns IS mounted.
 CHEEFoo, Feb. 8-The Japanese forces today arrived near Ninghai, town be- tween Wei Hsi Wei aud this city, and
 began bombardment of the forts ou the western side of the town. The for eigners in Chefoo are under arms. The gates of the city have been closed and barricaded. H. is thought probab that he attack or Ninghai is feint on the
 part of the Japanese to cover new landing of their forces.

Pain is always terrible visitant. and often d,mlc les itself with one for life This inf1ieti'n is preveptsble, in cases of rheumatism, by a timely resort t1 Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which checks the encroachments of this obsti- nate and dangerous malady st the out set. The term dangerous" is used ad- visedly. for reuhmAtism is always liable to attack the vital organs ard terminate life. No test mony is more conclusive and concurrent than that of physicians who testify the excellent effect of the Bi ters. Persons incur wettiDg in reiny or snowy weather. sId who are ex posed to draughts, should use the Bit ters as D. ever tstive of i'll effects. Ma laria, dyspepsia, liver and kidney trouble, nrrvou-pess ard debility are among the ailments to whirh this popu- lar medicine is adapted. For the intirm- ities, soreness and stiffness of the aged 1t is highly beneficial.

 The city trustees met in regular ses sion last evening. Messrs. Woodman Fredley, Specs. Redondo and Clerk Huson being present. Road building and public improvements were thorough ly discussed, which no doubt will ter minate in the levying of 8 tax. The proposition of Robert Hatch and Robert Tspis for the purchase of town lots were accepted. The appointment of Murst Masterbon as city attorney was made. Messrs. Woodman and Fredley were sp- point ted committee on roads, to learn tte cost of blue stone and other material. The meeting adjourned to meet on the 18th inst.
 Our eyes were made glad the other day by the sight of the bran new smart two scatter lately purchased for use in Yuma by our enterprising townsmap, H. w. Blaisdell. It is made for dura- bility and comfort. Both seats have high cushioned backs and it is SO light running that one horse can pull it with four people over our rather sandy streets. If more of our citizens owned such ve- hicles we feel sure our roads would soon be improved.

Where Do Looking Glasses Cor

What becomes of the looking glasses? The annual manufactures in Europe at the present time is about eighteen hundred and fifty square yards of look ing-glasS. Can it be that to their de- struction much of the ill-luck of the race is due? Glass mirrors are sup posed to have been first used in Sidon, and were very expensive for a long time after their introduction. A letter written in 1673 says that even if mir TOTS had been manufactured in France at that time only the king would have been rich enough to have one In ancient times polished metals were used, and grand ladies gave their mir TOTS in charge of slaves to be kept bright enough to faithfully reproduce the charms of their owners

THE LATE HOLD-UP.
The Return of Marshal Mesd-Des- cription of the Two Men and their
 Probable Whereabouts.

cription of the Two Men and their Probable Whereabouts. Marshal Meade has returned from pursuit of the men engaged in the re- cent hold up near Wilcox, and from him the following descriptions of the 1 men were obtained. At first It was be lIeved that four men had been implicat- eG in the robbery but it was, said the marshal, plain demonstrated that lhe whole thing w8- the work of two men, viz: Joe George and Grant Wheeler. George, so far Hs can be learned, came to this country about year and half ago fir. 10 Oklahoma, but thus is not cer- tain, as he made confident of DO one. He IS about five fe,t niue inches tall, dark omplexioned, cadsverous looking ID appearance, weighs probably 145 pounds and is about 30 years of age. The index finger of his right hand IS gone; is sad from his language to be 6 man of some education. He goes con- tartly armed and prepared for trou ble, acd even when working around camp fire wears his cartridge belt and pistol.
 Grant Wheeler IS typical Arizona cowboy, one of the best ID his llne ID he territory, and -as long lived on th;' 5 Simon. He is about five feet eight inches tall, also dark complexloned, 30 years of age and weighs about 1SO pounds. H. is bold and daring to a Irfl fal a n fl with the man say tt at be Sill never be taken alive. Ills familiarity with the mountain ranges along the border make nis capture largely sn imposslbilIty. He B the same msn who shot Si Bry ant at rodeo about three or four months ago. ont fortunately the bullet glanced from his abdomen and did not enter. After the shooting of Bryant Wheeler rode away but su bsequently returned to hIs od stamping grounds on learning the ex ept of Bryans's injuries. Both men bav- lots Of friends in the hills which makes their capture the mCre difficult.
 On the Sunday b fore the robbery the men camped at 4oore's ranch on the Whitewater; Mosd Y night they campeG about half way betUeen Moore's and Al laire's and the night following at Allai- rs'- and or Wednesday they rode to Wilcox but left their rifles st Morgan's, ; me six miles from town. Ia Wilcox
 hey purchased am ng other things, large quantities of cartridges and SIX
 esD pounds of giant powder. These things were put in wagon ard sent to Morga 's ranch, and that pight they held up the train. They rode 10 the -ailrosd and located their propoet d place of actiou, then tied their horeeq some If mile away and went to Wilcox on foot, where t ey got on the doomed train.
 It was well known and openly dis cn sed in Wllc tbat robbery was in progre g, hut no attempt WAS made to go to the rescue Of the train, although Sheriff Fly of Cochise county was ir the toVn at the time. The robbers were en tagged in their work for fully an hou and helf ard it would have been vera easy task for even one man with eh,D gun to have approached in the darkneso and killed both men, but as no one bod st anything it WAS decided to take ts charc ces.
 Ths amount fmoney taken will never he known as it IS the policy of the ex press companies to suppress all such in- formation.
